How large Farmers Hire Their Help.
Mr.. R. F. Pickert was in town yesterday
and made this office pleasant call. In course
OF conversation he informed us OF his way Of
hiring men for work on his farm. He brings
up large numb bers Of farm hands during the
harvest and threshing season, at the rate Of
five men every day during the season. These
men lie gives passes for the trip in order to
induce them to come. By this means lie OBJ
tains all the help needed on lis own farm,
and the small farmers are also benefited
thereby, in that they are enabled 10 obtain
help from the surplus supply brought here by
Mr.. Pickert. 1t is often rumored that Mr..
Pickert does not pay his men. This lie EN-
phaticalIy denies, and says lie owes no man
who has worked for him and fulfilled Ills part
of the contract He hires all his men on con
tract. Below we give copy Of the contract
as fu rnished by MI. Pickert, and which is re-
quired to be signed by every man before CON-
| mencing work.
CONTRACT.
We, the undersigned, hereby agree to work
on the Pickert farms through threshing and
harvesting, that is to say, until all thIeshing

other days we do not work. And it Is further
agreed we shall leave two weeks pay in the
hands Of Capt. B. Pickert as forfeit in case
we quit before the season is over. And 1t !.
also agreed that in case we wish TO quit be-
fore the season is over, we shall give TIVE
l. n Mat. A.
sire to do so, in order TO enable him 10, secur
men in our place. Then we are too sseceiv

New York.

NEW YORK, Dec. 2.-The stock market
was dull today, and, while weak in the fore
noon developed considerable strength in the
late trading. and closed stroug with scarcity
of stocks Offering in all portions Of the list.
The principal factors in the weakness were
the rumoTs which were circulated in regard
to the Richmond & West Point, whereby the
bears were enabled to still further depress
the prices of both the stock and the trust
bonds. The stock at one time showed de-
cline from last nights figures of u per cent,
having touched $50.
There were many Gales by long holders.
and undoubtedly the late strength of the
stock gave evidence OF selling of a different
character. The pressure was specially
marked in Missouri Pacific. which yielded
readily, while Atchisou, Northern Pacific
preferred and Erie were better held. The
declines in the general list were held down
to insignificant fractions, Notwithstanding
the weakness developed in the industrials,
ana when the pressure was removed a 1ull
recovery followed. The inactive stocks were
without feature. and Ohio & Mississippi,
which was a prominent feature Yesterday,
sold down TO %. aga inst 2614 yesterday on
only one transaction.
Lake Shore, Burlington & Quincy, Wheel
ing d Lake Erie and Union Pacific were
strongly supported and the fine showing of
the earnings of the Burlington here created
considerable confidence as to the future
showing of all railroad properties The i'm

further aided in the latter portion of the day
by the news from London regarding the issue

BEAUTY IN DISTRESS.
An Unknown Girl Takes Poison
and Seeks Death,

OLATHE, Kan, Dec. "A young
woman came in on the O'Clock train
on the Southern Kansas road, from
Kansas City yesterday evening, asked
for room at a hotel, and retired early
without saying anything to any one.
While at breakfast this morning she fell
from her chair unconscious. A doctor
was called and she has been partially
restored. She refuses to give her name,
and says she has no parents, home or
friends. She is well dressed, strkingly
handsome, medium height, dark eyes
and hair, and about twenty-five years
old. On her table was found a note
saying she wanted to be buried in the
cemetery north of Olathe, and to use
her watch to pay expenses. Her rings
she asked to be left on her fingers. On
her clothing are marked the letters IN.
u" While she has somewhat recovered
she covers up her head and will not be
seen by any one, and says she wants to
die. The doctor has been unable to
learn what she took, but thinks she may
recover.
