HEAVY MARKET.
General Fist ON Wall Street Dull
and FeatareIeSS.

New York. FEB. 10.-The stock market
still maintains an active business In lew
stocks, while the rest of the list is kept dull
and upinteresting. although the market can
not strictly be called narrow, as the trading
from day to day extends TO large number OF
stocks showing that the interest in the mar
ket is wide spread, and while duilness now is
the principal feature, there is hope OF revival
of activity in the near future. The news TO-
day was not of a character to have much in
fluence upon prices, but what there was of it
was rather unfavorable. The lndustrials
were again prominent for their vide fluctua-
tons, but with the exception of one or two
specialties, the stocks of the regular
list were kept within narrow lin
tie throughout the day. The late
strength was again prominent i'll the early
trading, but later in the day the bears felt the
list, and. finding no marked support, ham
mered some of the leading stocks down. wip..
ing out all CT the early grain in almost all
cases. Silver rose lie, and Mobile Ohio
shows gain of Use, but other changes are
slight and irregular. Railroad bonds are
still relatively more active and stronger than
the share list, and today, while fluctuations
were on a moderate scale, the transactions
footed up to Si,S90,000. The tone of the mar,
ket was firm, and. while most OF the final
changes are Insignificant. Cedar Falls lists
rose 3i2 TO 90l2 and New York d Northern
DDS 3 to 81. Government bonds have been
dull and steady. State bonds have been dull,
neglected. Petroleum opened firm and ad-
Eanced slightly Oil small buying orders from
the West. When these buying orders were
filed the market lost ell its advance and
ruled dull until the close. Pennsyl-
vania Oil-Spot opening, 7Sc; high
est. 79lsc; lowest, 79c: closing, T95$c;
March options opening S0sSc; highest, Sic;
lowest, l97Sc; closing, 1850. Lima oil. no
sales. Total sales, 1900 bbls. The Post
saws: All things considered, the granger
stocks will continue to be the one weak ele-
ment in the stock market. The condition and
prospects Of the Southern roads is so rad
ically different from that of the grangers
that they will probably become the favorite
OF the speculation for higher prices ices Tn, The
big cotton crop assures them large busl-
ness; the growth of population and enter
prise in many parts of the South are now
ahead of that of the wheat, ard the roads IN
rates are steadily perfecting their mutual
support of each other in many ways. In adj
dition to this, the southern stocks are now
lower in proportion TO their dividends than
any other stocks on the list, and, therefore,
have larger margin for legitimate rise.

Feline Ssvacity,

A very much petted cat of mine, aged
ten, was with me while sewing recently
She had seated herself on portion of
the calico which was before me on a
small table, and before leaving the room
for a few minutes carefully arranged
the part OF the work with the needle in
it so that it hung over the edge of the
table and was well out of Tiny's way.
On my return l found she had gathered
up the calico and was sitting upon it,
but had kept out the unfinished hem.
and was holding down the needle with
her right paw. purring loudly the while
at what she evidently considered sue
cessful imitation Of her mistreSs.-Lon-

Here is a prodigiously tall story sent
to us by young subscriber "a gentle
man In Rosario was once attacked by
Parnpa Indians. There were seven of
them and he had only his six shooter,
with five shots from which he succeeded
In laying low the same number Of his
assailants. he had then one charge left,
and the remaining two men were ad-
yancing toward him.
Quick as thought he opened his pocket
knife, held it up II front Of the pistol
barrel, with the sharp edge Of the blade
toward him, and fired. The knife spli.
the bullet in halves, each half killing
one of bis foes. and the hero thus saved
his scalp. This is MS own account Of
the affair. "-Buenos Ayres Standard

A DREAM OF THE SEA.

A farmer lad in bis prairie home
Lay dreaming of the sea;
He meier had seen it. but well he knew
Its pictured image and heavenly hue;
And he dreamed ne swept DER its waters blue,
With the winds a blowing free,
With the winds SO fresh and free.
He wokei and he said. 1.-THE day viii come
When that shall be the truth to me''
But as years swept by him he always found
That his feet were clogged and his hands were
bound,
Till at last he lay in narrow mound,
Affair from the sobbing sea.
The sorrowing, sobbing sea.
Oh, many there are on the plains tonight
That dream of voyage to be,
And have said in their souls, THE day will
come
When my bark shall sweep through the drifts
of foam"
But their eyes grow dim and their lips grow
dumb,
Affair from the tossing sea.
The turbulent, tossing sea.

The Best Pianos Need Tuning Often.

The piano is an instrument of extreme
sensibility, and although pianos do not get
out of tune so easily now as formerly, be-
cause they are better made, with stronger
frames and heavy plates to support the
strain of the strings, yet the causes are
numerous which make necessary the occa-
sional visits of the piano tuner. For in
stance, the strings get out of tune by con-
traction and expansion of the materials
used in its construction and by the stretch
of the strings, and unless the tuner is call
ed the pitch continually gets lower and
lower and the tune loses its brilliancy.-
