Not Pleased With the Tavern.

He was a Farmers Alliance advocate
right out of the first furrow from the
fence corner and it showed on him bad
". but he did not think so at all.
He had come to the hotel late in the
evening and had repaired to his room
at once. Half an hour later his bell
rang and boy answered it, and he
called for the clerk. When that ac-
commodating necessity of hotel life APP
reared the guest inquired with great
pomposity.
What kind Of hotel do you call this
anyhow"
I'VE call tia good one, sir" answered
the clerk, showing off bit.
"Well, l don't.
"Why not? What's the matter with
it?"
"IlI show you in minute. Look

STooKs.-The opening of the new week
brought no change to the stock market
from its late condition of dizziness and
stagnation in business, but there was still
a firm tone and the slight advantage gained
last week was stubbornly held and in some
cases improved. The renewed prominence
of the Changers and especially st. Paul,
Burlington and Atchison, was one of the
proofs of this attitude and the
stubborn strength shown by all OF
them in the face of the bearish attacks by
the traders give tone 10 the entire market,
though in few other shares were the deal
ings OF any Importance whatever. The
general apathy Of operators was shown
most clearly by the transactions of the day,
the movements being entirely professional
and spaSmodic in their character, while
confined TO very few stocks and limited
in their effects. The market remained de-
void of special feature and finally closed
very dull and steady at insignificant
changes for the day. Sales l03,003 shares.

A TERRIBLE FALL.
The Drunken Feat of Laughlin May
Prove Fatal.

Prove Fatal.
Frank E. Laughlin, the man who fell or
jumped from a second-story window over the
New York saloon on Front street, at the corner
of Stewart, the night before last, was resting
easily yesterday, at Providence hospital, but
would say nothing rs to his terrible fall.
Just how he came to fall out of the window is
a mystery, unless he was leaning out and IN MS
drunken stupor lost his balance, or made the
leap with suicidal intent No one saw him fall,
but Mat Garnew, a co.ored barber who lives
directly across Stewart street, was just going to
bed and heard something drop on the
sidewalk with terrible force. Looking
out he saw the man lying in the
street where he had rolled OF the walk. Omcer
Kelly happened along and took him to police
headquarters in hack, where he was attended
by DR.. Hilton. He was then taken to Providence
hospital, and yesterday morning DIR. Shannon
took charge of him. There was quite cash on
his left arm, and his back was terribly bruised.
He il in q critical condition, though the doctor
thinks he may pull through.
The building from which he fell is unoccupied
up stairs, and the windows on the second floor
on the Stewart street side were all open. Laugh
lin was in the saloon below earlier in the even

asked the bartender for drink, but had no
money to pay for 1t. He was given the
drink and then went out, and evil
IDENTIFY turned up the stairs, though
the bartender, Joe Sharp, says he did not hear
any one go up. It is not improbable that in his
drunken fit of desperation he decided to end his
life The window from which he fell was fully
twenty five feet from the sidewalk, and 1t is re-
markable that he was not instantly killed. strik.

Laughlin is about IS years old, and has been

Society, has made arrangements at the hospital

ISL Plunkard' at the Opera-House.
"Si Plunkard" was presented at the Seattle
opera-house last evening to large, and at times
enthusiastic audience. The production is
purely comedy, and aims only to please. In this
it succeeds From the outbursts of merriment
which were frequent, it is safe to say that all
enjoyed the quaint, dry, everyday, common
sense style of Mr. ]. C. Lewis, in his delineation
of ST Plunkard. The best specially done by
Mr. Lewis was his whistling solo, which brought
forth liberal applause. Mr.. w. N. Milligan took
the part of Felix Schmart, ESQ.,, in
good style. giving specialities in song and
dance which caught the fancy of the audience.
Mr.. Milligan is certainly good Dutch come
dian. Miss NJ Rice played the spinster maiden
In q most realistic style, locking and carrying
out the part to the letter Val Love played the
VILLAIN in the style so familiar to those who are
attendants at Cordray's Miss p. Wise, Sis
sweetheart, brought forth considerable applause,
both in her defense of the country boy as being
worthy of any lady's hand and in her recitation
about the "spooks." The orchestra rendered
several selections which brought forth merited
applause. "Si Plunkard" will be repeated to-
night and viii give a country band street
parade at noon.
