am Cloud-compelliug Dyrenforth, mighty
able wight;
can call the clouds together with load OF
dynamite;
I can daily with the cyclone, can monkey
with the gale,
I can fertilize the prairie where another man

mountain stream,
I tell You, Me and Jerry are pretty brilliant

Old Grnco-Roman Jupiter, with his nickel
plated bolt,
Must now betske him westward and proclaim
himself dolt;
His prehistoric methods have been proved to be
so tame,
That with Cloudcompelling Dyrenforth he is
not in the game;
For IL must now be acknowledged, when 1t
comes to dynamite,

SToCKs-The stock market to-day showed
on the whole moderate volume OF bust
ness, and while displaying strong tone
during most Of the time, failed to score ma
terial advances in the stocks which have
Of late been most prominent in the deal
ings. Other stocks, however, were taken
up by the interests identified with them
and advanced materially. In these gains
the Vanderbilts, and especially the low
priced ones, were the features. The bears
at the outset endeavored to make more
capital out of the frosts reported last
night, but the temper Of the room was de
cidedly bullish still, and aided by liberal
purchases for both foreign and domestic
account, the demonstration In the early
dealings was fruitless, except the
strong stocks of yesterday were
retired fractionally. The attack IN the
early trading caused fractional concessions,
but the recovery came soon, and the ad-
vance from that time was not interrupted
ha nf.t traded
narrow limits, and the Vanderbilts and
few others led the improvement. The
market closed active and strong with
most of the list at the highest prices OF the
day. The final changes are generally frac-
tional gains, but Chesapeake and Ohio is

AN EMERGENoY CAKE-BAsKEr.
A Clever Scheme for Frightening Up q
Dull Visitor.


A Clever Scheme for Frightening Up q
Dull Visitor.
Boston Courier
"Hello," said young man to friend,
met on the street, where we're you last
night when / went over to see you
about the Canoe Club meet?"
"Oh, 1 was calling on the Feather
views"
do you go there much?"
"Why, not so very much" the other
answered, "but l go there every now
and then"
Ever seen their cake-basket?" asked
the first speaker In an off-hand tone.
"Cake-basket?" repeated the other.
"No, l don't know that ever did,"
"Oh, you'd know If you'd seen it.
Evidently you are all right"
"All right, how?"
"Why, they evidently do not have
any difficulty in entertaining you"
do ysu mean that they feed the
callers that are hard to entertain?"
"No, that is not the device. They
have a cake-basket which they show
whenever a caller is dull or stupid or
slow; and 1t is to all appearances an or
binary, everyday cake-basket; but a
squeeze turns it into fruit-dish; then a
pull aud it is turned into hat; then
with a little poking there you have an
excellent toy boat; or they may change
into an ice pitcher," or a backgammon
board, or dressing case, or a boot-jack
or an egg-beater. never have begun
to get to the end of the things into
which they can change that wonderful
cake-basket.
They have not shown it to me-" the
other said, "but must say that should
like to see it,"
"Oh, you'll see 1t some time. They
reserve it for special emergencies, and
there will come O day when you will be
tired out or blue or dull, and you will
drop into Featherview's as naturally as
possible; and you will not realize the
situation at all until you find yourself
admiring the Protean lightning changes
OF that marvellous antidote for the bore,
their wonderful cake basket.
evidently you have been there" his
friend murmured, under his breath.
