There was scarcely any stock market to-day,
transactions in listed stocks being confined to
only 4S,512 shares, and in the unlisted to % $50
shares; while fluctuations were strictly upon a
parity with trading. In no stock but Sugar was
there any real fuctuation. and that was very
moderate for tnat stock. The general indispos-
tlon TO trade pending the settlement of the
silver question one way or the other extended
to-day to professionals and traders, and opera
lions or that class OF operators were restricted
10 the smallest limits possible. Dizziness was
most intense even from the start and prices as
usual got dropping tendency, which sufficed
to carry Sugar down to so after SALES of 1884,
but in nothing else was there a movement
worthy of notice. The bank statement showed
marked increase in the surplus reserve in
banks, and this finally did away with the in
nuence inserted by the shipment of gold yester-
day, and good buying at the concessions estab-
iished came in, and early losses were in almost
all cases made up again, Sugar rallying nearly
20 its highest point and closing nearly within Il
of its last nights prices. The figure among
specialties was Citizens Gas of Brooklyn, which
advanced a small fraction, selling ex dividend.
The sales OF Sugar were II 1925, but in no other
stock did sales reach as much as 1000 shares,

SUNDAY AT THE PARK

Sunday was one of those perfect
days so common in our climate. The
recent severe frost was a great dis
aster to the forest and shade trees
that mad put out a full dress of spring
LEAKAGE, and their recovery is slow
but at the Springs the elms are out
in their glory and other forest
trees will soon show their
lea yes. a base ball game was the
chief attraction and there was quite
an audience perched upon the rickety
old seas fronting the race track.
The saloon did "a fair bust
ness, and thence secured some
thing like a revival OF the old days
when the San Pedro park was the
chief resort of the city. A walk
through the grounds convince us that
the twenty-five years lease had left
the park In a poorer, more dilapidated
condition than it was twenty-five
years ago. Many of the fine forest
trees have disappeared, the grounds
have been disfigured by the sO-called
improvements, the fences sre all down
and the park is Over-run by cattle.
the bridges are in delapidated con-
dition, and air of neglect and dilapid-
alton pervailes the premices. Had
the twenty-five years been utilized,
today 1t would be beautiful sylvan
retreat 1t was a great mistake to
turn over this park to private
individual as a residence and beer
garden. 1t is not to be expected
that any private individual will do
more than necessary to promote his
business. This is the only outdoor
resort owned by the people, let it be
made a beautiful park, strictly pO-
Iced and carefully attended to. 1t is
one Of the best investments our city
can 60 into.

A COMPLAINT

There are many complaints that the
city teams in bringing gravel from the
gravel pits drop so many stones over
the streets they traverse that travel
on them is positive discomfort.
This is particularly true of East Com
merce street, which is full of loose
stones, on which horses feet are con
tinually slipping, and the Jar to
vehicles makes riding not very pleas
ant. Wagons with solid beds should
be used for hauling the gravel in tead
of loose dump boards which permits
half the load to be sifted out before it
reaches it's destination.

BAPTISM.
EVANGELIST LoCkHART DISCUSS
ES THE DIFFERENT FORMS.


A large congregation attended the
Christian church to listen to Rev. Mr.
Lock hart on the subject of Baptism
The delivery of the speaker was
quite fluent and smooth, and appear.
ed quite earnestly. The substance
of his remarks were: THAT JOhu's
baptism was not the Christian bap
tism, because the baptism OfJOhn
was with water, while the baptism at
Christ was that of the Holy Ghost;
that to be baptised it was necessary
to be carsied down into and under
the water, as the word baptism meant
to wash, TO clean, to purify. The
Evangelist did not however object to,
prescribe any particular form on
method of baptism. but claimed that
the baptism of the holy Spirit, with
a change of heart was true baptism.
