The Exceptional Standing SO
Quickly Attained by G. o. Rice
& Company.
One of the most enterprising strictly
st. Paul institutions which has had a
growth more than phenomenal is the
carpet and drapery business of c. o.
Rice & Company, on Sixth street, Op-
pOsite the Ryan hotel. The members of
this firm were both born and raised in
this city and are thoroughly identified
with all Its interests. The business is
largely manufacturing, they employing
from 60 to about 100 people in freScO
painting, paper hanging, tEe manufact-
ure of furniture, draperies, carpets,
etc. Although in busidess but one
year and starting in times Of depression,
they have, by energy and pluck, prac-
tically distanced all competition, and
are now the recognized leaders in
this line in the West. AS a proof
Of this they refer with pleasure
and pride to nearly all of the prominent
people of st. Paul. Minneapolis, Duluth,
Winona, Saltwater and all adjoining
cities. They have just completed con-
tract of $4,000 for frescO painting, the
new hotel at Winnipeg for the Northern
Pacific and Manitoba Railroad compa-
MES, the theater at Grand Forks, n.
D., and are now doing the Pioneer club
of that city, which will be a lasting evil
dence of high-class work. The Central
Presbyterian church, the Grand theater,
the Ryan and Windsor hotels and many
other public buildings of st. Paul Will
testify to their ability, when it is con-
Sidered that all of the above work was
taken against the strongest st. Paul,
Minneapolis and other competitors, and
that they have doubled their stock
and capacity twice since beginning busi-
ness. 1t is an enterprise that all st.
Paul people can we'll be proud of.

New YORK. Dec 5.-The stock market
was quite active after the first half hour and
displayed & stronger tone than ii has for
some time. There were material advances in
some Of the leading stocks and smaller gains
in almost everything. The opening was very
dull. but generally higher than last nights
prices and some improvement was made
from the first sales. and when it became evil
dent that The West was buying freely of its
favorltes, there was gain. An endeavor
to cover some OF the outstand-
ing shorts which materially increased
the business done has kept the upward
movement going when ii would otherwise
have been arrested by reallZations or the issue
of the bank statement, which showed & small
loss in reserve.
This. however, was due to a heavy.expan-
sion of loans, even in the face of the heavy
increase in deposits Among the usually
most prominent for strength. The only
material advance was in Sugar but the
leading stocks gained large fractions. The
fear of the day, however, was the squirt
in the Milwaukee, Lake Shore & Western
stocks, the common rising per cent TO 81,
and the preferred. after selling up to 120l2
closed 5S4 per cent higher at 1874. An old
story that negotiations had been concluded
by which the road was to become part of
the Northwestern system was current, and,
to some minds, accounted for the advance.
The market closed active and strong at or
about the highest prices of the day.
Inc Fost says: "Desplte the dullness OF
this mornings market the toue was very
firm. Among the professional element, in
fact, the stubborn resistance of the granger
stocks TO all efforts at creating weakness
has caused a noteworthy change in senti-
ment. The simple fact is that holders of
such stocks as these are not at all disposed
to let them go at concessions; the be-
lief being spread that the chances
favor the obtaining of much better
prices by those who keep their stocks
and wait developments This feeling is un-
doubtedly justified by financial conditions,
and is confirmed by the well-understood fact
that the really important operators for lower
prices are either entirely out of the market or
else are moving with great deliberation and
caution. Bullishly- disposed traders availed
themselves of the better feeling to bid up
stocKs and there were numerous eucourag-
ing gains. conspicuously in the coal shares.

MINNEAPOLIS MARKETS.
Arrivals of Wheat Smaller. Ow
ing to the blockade.

Wheat opened dull and weak, regaining
the loss later. Liverpool cables and other
foreign quotations were generally dull. and
there was some weakness noticeable. They
were thought 10 be due TO larger accumu-
latlon of wheat on this side. and the late
weakness on with us. Arrivals of wheat
were smaller III the Northwest by team at
country elevators, and by rail at
terminal points in Minnesota. There
was a fairly good demand from local
milers for good wheat early, but after they
had supplied their wants the market was
quite dull. Elevator companies were not in
the market, prices being too high for them.

have put in galvaniZing plant, the

Ecru church laces adorn hats of beig e
and tan. These filmy fances evidently
intend to stay through the entire sea-
son, let the weather be ever so severe.
The finest of Chantilly and Spanish are
used in every conceivable fashion. As
a millinery trimming they are decided
success, toning down glaring colorS and
subduing loud effects, one of the most
vivid being the Psyche, which is akin to
the Old-time magenta.
