Closing Mining stocks.
NEW YORK Ian
New York Stock Market.

New YORK, Jan. 20.-The stock market gave
another demonstration in strength today and an
almost unbroken series of advances was made
only in the assured ease in money coupled with
confidence of American spectators in domestic
securities and in spite of opposition the foreign
element waited. The movement has been
carried on without their help. Several cllques
and pools are now at work on the market and
the effect Of their operation Is the ordinary &C
tivity OF the stocks they have in hand as against
the comparative quiet of the remainder of the
list. Government bonds were dull and steady.

Only published by HIS publishers he meant
But if he had spoken the truth about the matter
he would have told you that the first volume OF
the latest edition OF the Encyclopedia Britain
MICA was issued fifteen years ago, and that the
greater part Of 1t was compiled at that date.
So you see they didn't get General Grant In IL
. after all.
That depends on the kind Of book you want.
Let me ask you question or two You live
hare in the United States, don't you?
Yes, thought So Nov tell me, about which
do you want the most detailed information, an
American city or an English town? An Amer
lean statesman or an English statesman?
just so. But, you see, the Encyclopedias
Britannica wasn't compiled for the use Of men
like YOU. If was put topether to be used by
Englisbmen in England. And, you see, they
want the exact opposite Of what you do andthe
Encyclopedia Britannica, very properly, gives
it TO them. 1t fills pages with the account Of
some insignificant English borough or county
that you may never want to know anything
about whatever, and gives half dozen lines to
some State orcity here thatyOu want the fullest
particulars OF, but about which an Englishman
. cares just nothing at all
Right as trivet, whatever that may be-
never saw one that know Of. But you're Just
exactly right, all the same. It's the AMERI-
CANNED Encyclopedia Britannica that We
propose to put in every koms IL the West. The
long winded articles on petty British subjects
have been cut down to the same length that
would have been given them had they been
French or German subjects, and the articles on
matters of American interest have been all rs
written and treated just rs exhaustively as they
would have been in the original work had they
been specially interesting to Englishmen.
Well, rather. One Of the best and most COM
plete ever written. And there are four thou
sand new biographies besides. In fact, the
work contains the life OF every distinguished
man or woman, American or foreign, now living,
or who has died since the Encyclopedias Brir
| tannica was compiled.
Oh, yes, a few The entire work has been re.
vised down to the present year for one thing.
Then an entirely new set of maps has been
added, including separate map for each State
| in the Union.
Ten good sized volumes, excellently bound.
About 1900 pages altogether, or 14.0OO wide
columns, equal to about 10 ordinary limo

So is; he was right enough SO far. It's
monumental work and cost more than million
dollars to get up. But there are spots on thu
sun, You know, and there are defects even In the
Encyclopedias Britannica. Did he mention to
you that you might look for Ulysses s. Grant
In it and not find word about him?
OF course he was, or pretty nearly So But
the Encyclopaedia Britannica doesn't mention
him for all that. And it doesn't say word
about Sherman either, nor about Sheridan, nor
Hancock, nor Blaine, nor Cleveland, nor Harri-
son, nor Harriet Beechsr Stowe, nor Julia Ward
Howe, nor Elizabeth Stuart Phelps nor Charles
Stewart Parnell, nor Bismarck, nor JEFF Davis,

they are alive that want to know
about them most. But see here.
Whatyou say doesn' thold together.
