This remedy does not dry up cough but
1oosens and relieves it. 1t prevents cough
ing by producing free expectoration, and
by allaying the Inflammation and irrita-
tion of the throat. 1t is the only prepara-
tion in common use that produces an expul-
sion of mucus from the air cells OF the
lungs, renders the mucus less tenacious and
easier to expectolate, and opens the secre-
tions. 1t completely undermines cold. 1t
is especially adapted to children, as it con-
tains no injurious substance. 1t is a great
favorite for croap, and has never yet failed.

by Wideawake Investors.
FAIR PRICES STILL THE RULE.

APRIL FUN AMONG THE GRAIN DEALERS

The remainder of the property formerly
owned by Captain Thomas Snowden, COM
prising three acres of ground and good
dwelling, situated in the borough Of Will
kinsburg, was sold by James w. Drape q
Co. yesterday, to William c. Lyme for S2l.O0O
cash. 1t will be occupied by the purchaser as
residence
A large deal In rural real estate was closed
up yesterday, but the bare fact was all that
could be obtained The tract comprises about
ten acres. and is situated just below the Hamp-
ton coal road, between Williamsburg and Edge
wood. The price paid approximates sl,oOO an
acre. One authority said it would be laid out
In lots, while another was confident it was for
manufacturing plant-perhaps the ice fac
tory referred to few days ago. The ground
is admirably adapted for either purpose.
Another important transaction brought to q
head yesterday was the sale by Henry A.
Weaver & CO. for Captain John B. Ford, Presi-
dent of the Pittsburg Plate Glass Company, OF
vacant lot on Second avenue, between Wood
and Market streets, having a frontage of 50
feet and running through to First avenue, for
S255O6. They also sold a lot adjoining the above,
80 by so feet with two-story dwelling, for SlZ,-
600, being S4O0 front foot, making the aggre-
gate of both transactions SS7.500. The proba-
bility is that the purchaser will improve the
property.
There was good deal of April foolIng at tle
Grain Exchange yesterday. The members are
mostly middle-aged and dignified, but few of
them are young and fond of fun, and exercised
their penchant at the expense OF their seniors
One of the victims was Mr.. McMasters. the
-four dealer He was summoned to the tele-
phone where he expected to receive a large
order, only to be told that it was April !. He
gracefully admitted the sell in an address
which brought down the house. A number of
others were deceived in the same way. On the
whole, the session was productive of more
merriment than business.
1t is expected that large amount of money
which will be set afloat by the quarterly settle
ments, now in progress. will seek investment in
local securities and real estate. AS to the
former, there is ample material in which to
operate The stocks of nearly 200 local cor
porations are listed on change representing an
aggregate capital of nearly $500 100000. Their
soundness cannot be impeached. AS to real
estate, every investor knows that it rests on
firm basis and possesses a fixed value that
would be hard to shake. With such opportunities
to speculate at home. it is the height of folly to
send money East to enrich cliques and rings.

The local money market yesterday presented
the usual features. Checking and depositing
were heavier, indicating an active and general
trade. The demand for loans was moderate
and rates more easy at 6@7 per cent. Ex-
changes were s2576, ,y40.53 and balances s464.-
073.SS. The haste to settle Eastern claims
caused scarcity of exchange, while large pay
rolls on local account absorbed all the small
currency. These inconveniences will be reme-
died in day or two.
In regard to April disbursements the New
York Stakeholder OF yesterday says: "The dis
bursements on account of dividends and inter-
est during April are always large, the month
marking the beginnings OF regular quarterly
semi-annual fiscal period in the affairs of
many corporations and this year notwithstand-
ing the refunding of bonds at lower rates of
interest, there is a gratifying increase as com
pared with the month in previous year. Inter-
est becomes due and Is payable to-day on the
bonds of railroads and cognate CORPORATIONS
having IN aggregate par value of s757, ,OSS, $40
such interest amounting $50, ,45l, ,S67.
In addition 20 this dividends have been de-
clared or are payable during the month on
stocks having par value of $685. 4S1 74U these
amounting to Sll. Il, ,0S9 making the total of
the disbursements on this account S3l, ,573 956
The Government also pays interest to-day on
the outstanding per cents, the amount to be
disbursed being approximately $1,000 co., and
this together with the interest on other securi-
ties, such State, county and municipal
bonds, to say nothing of the stocks of manu-
featuring corporations saw $40 millions, will
swell the total of the April disbursements 10
about SI715 millions"

Petroleum Crowding the Eighty Cent Mnrk
Notes From the Field.
The oil market was dull and featureless yes
terday up to about o'clock. when the New
York longs, after switching their deals over to
May, started to sell out. This caused little
hurry. and the other exchanges. following the
Dig leader, jumped Oh the market with both
feet and knocked it down from S455s to 81 where
IL ltremalned until the clese. The range was:
Opening S41a, highest s45s lowest and closing
81
Business was brisk for short time between
the room traders. but some orders were placed.
The latter was the most encouraging feature of
the DAY, as it was an indication that outsiders
were becoming interested. The slump was
due to increased production, to the competition
OF Lima Oil and dullness of the export trade.
Mondays clearances were 72l,OOO barrels, a
goou zeal of which was "loaned'' oil.
The new gas well of the Pennsylvania Com
pany, near Canonsburg. shows very high pres
sure. Some think it the best gas well in Wash
lngton county. Its full capacity will not be
known until the pump is started.
Inc number of completed wells for March
was oZ2 an increase of 40 over February. The
total production of these new wells is 1884, a
ruary; The dry holes brought i'll amounted to
vs. February's quota was II, making an in
crease OF u busters for March. There are now
645 wells drilling and and 426 rigs.
Inc Fleming Oil COmpany's well, on the
Ioothman farm at Fairview. w. Va, is through
the second pay streak with no beneficial results
as to production. 1t is doing ten barrels day
and being tubed for pumping.
Inc Ivory farm well at WeStview is making
about rs barrels day. and Guffy & Co.'S Tree
farm well at Coraopolis is pumping 25 day.
1he kaccoon Oil Company's No. ), at Shanno-
PIN, is producing 800 barrels day.

TsrEcIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcR.i
CHARLESTON, S. c., April l. - DR..
Chauncey NJ. Depew and his family spent
to-day in the ''cradle of secession" on their
way home. The visitors were met at the
hotel by the Mayor of the city and COM
mittee of distinguished citizens, all Demo-
Gratis, and were taken On trip around the
harbor. They visited Fort Sumter, Fort
Moultrie and some of the phosphate works
IN the forenoon, and in the afternoon were
driven around the CITY. Mr. Depeg said
that he had gained five to six pounds bv his
Southern trip, and was now ready to return
to business.
Referring to the Southern people whom
he had met, ne remarked: 81 am very much
pleased with the South, especially with the
hospitality of its inhabitants. There are
two classes of people so for as have been
able TO observe in the South. One class,
which is growing smaller. have their heads
filled with classics, ideas of aristocracy,
etc. The other class busy their minds
about phosphates, iron mines, cotton mills
and other enterprises. 1t is needless to say
that the latter class are the better citizens,
and are the most important factors in the
construction of the New South"
There was no formal reception. The party
let here tonight for New York via the
Richmond and DanvilIe route.

Medical Journal.1
Be specially careful of draughts and sudden
changes.
Do not overwork. OF what use is wealth
without health?
Keep your feet dry, but do not wear over
shoes all the time.
Remember that the pores of your skin. when
in health, are always open, anc that closing
them causes sickness.
Dress warmly, but not heavily. Woolen
clothing that permits the exhalatIons OF the
body to escape is the best.
Eat strengthening and hearty, but not too
much greasy food. 1t is mistake to suppose
that fat food contains the m ost vitality
1fyou feel chilly at any time take drink of
pure whisky at once. Duffy's Pure Malt is the
purest and best and has the highest recon-
mendations.
Do not call the Doctor for every slight all
ment. If you have a cold, feel depressed and
lack appetite and vigor you need something to
tone and build up the system. Nothing will do
this so readily as the pure article we have mer-
toned. W
