NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

NEW YORK. June 3.-The stock market TO-
day was marked throughout with the usual In
significant fluctuations In the general list and
immaterial changes at the close. Only four

The opening prices were all slightly lower than

usual vigorous pounding OF the few leading
shares, and at the lowest figures they were down
from y 20 ~ per cent. Selling, however, was
seemingly easier than buying and the move

dulness and stagnation which has OF late be-

EARLY LOSSES NEARLY RECOVERED.
Prices slowly crept up In tho absence Of pres

recovered except I'm Louisville and Nashville,
which was heavy all the way out. The fnal
trading was enlivened by a small demonstration
against values, but like the earlier one, II was
short-hved. The market in the mean time
failed TO respond TO the advance In Chicago gas,

SONG LEE PAINTS HIS HOUSE.
II SHIFTS Him, and the Rest of the World
Must Make the Best or IL.
Isan Francisco Chroniclel

lSan ffuuCl5CO NuiOhiSAp'l
Song Lee keeps a wash-house on Larkin
street. II is quite pretentlous two-story
frame structure with peaked shingle roof.
Ira owner conceived the idea recently OF
adding TO ITS attractiveness by sundry ex-
terror coats Of high-hued paints.
So now the thing 10 a perpetual night
mare TO all the neighbors and passers-oy
who see IL for the first time. They are
startled almost into oreathiessness ah9
seized with queer optical illusions and
visions of awful phantasies that haunt the
brain until the dust of Larkln street Is
shaken from their feet.
The painter tried to make the roof
white, but the dirty shingles have dehed
his skill. With persistency born OF dust
and SCOT they still show through the white
paint In occasional dark patches.
Only a man with the nightmare could
have nainted the front. The background
is dark, rich green. The door and WIN
dow-frames ale yellow, trimmed with red.
The blinds are blue, the cornlce PINK, the
wlndow-sills black. and the door-steps
cream-colored. Other pigments abound
in profusion, but even the artist who CON-
rounded them is unable to call the won
drous colors by name.
The rainbow is simply not in 1t when
compared TO the front of Song Lees WASH
house.
vet To be described. Every imaginable
shade and flint that brain suffering from
the effects of a plumb-pudding or mlnce-
pie supper might produce has here been
laid on the weather boards in stripes. The
effect is simply maddening. =,
Seen for the first time, q shock IKE Q
thousand volts of electricity comes over
one, and color-blindness ensues ct once.
Some or the neighbors complain that the
colors are so loud as to disturb their Stun
bers at night.
Song Lee il not unconscious Of the at
tention his wash-house has excited IN the
neighborhood. He comes out, takes
glance at the awful thing, and then goes
back smiling.

Our esteemed contemporary, The RICH
MoSD DISPATCH, favors common Memo
rlal-day throughout the South on which to
decorate the graves of the gallant Confede-
rate dead who sacrificed their lives in q
cause they believed to be just.
We cheerfully endorse what the DISPATCH
says on this subject. We think some day
should be selected, and on that day at
every Confederate cemetery memorial
services should be conducted. We do not
like the idea of selecting different days at
different cemeteries and holding these
beautiful services whenever most conye-
nient. A day should be set apart for this
sacred duty. and. at the same time, the
people everywhere should be engaged in
placing tokens of love. respect. and esteem
who fell in BATTLE -Fredericksbtr Star.
