During the First Hour Sugar Devel-
 oped Much Strength-In a General
 Way the Market Was Weakened by
 the Strength of Sterling Exchange.
 NEW YoRK. Dec. 5.-During the first hour Sogar developed much strength and rose from s3ls to s4 This imparted flrmer tone to the general list and prices moved up A to per cent, Mis- souri Pacific showing the greatest gain and rising to 2T. Speculation then became quiet and ruled so unusually well until well into the the after noon, when the Atchison issues declined rapidly on sales for foreign and Boston. The stock fell over @ point while the fours broke 6j4 to 67s4and the seconds, class A, A to ssA. The stories about the inability of the company to meet lis January interest were revived and again denied. Other weak stocks la:e in the day were Missouri Pacific, the grangers and Sugar.
 h general way the market was weakened by
 the strength of sterling exchange and by the loss
 in railway earnings for November. Sugar was deprsssed near the close on information that the government will p.ess the Sugar Trust suit now pending in the supreme court. The decline in prices from the highest point ranged from 4 to 5H. Linseed oil rose from e65s on the further ad- vance of cents per gallon in the product, msk- ing cents for the past ten days. Compared with yesterdays closing prices show declines of Ii to lls per cent, outside of Mobile and Ohio, which | Is down sss, and United States ExpresI which Is | up 4 per cent.
 In railway bonds the Atchison issues were the | features. These bonds were heavy, falling from

AN UNDERRATED MAN.
What the Book Agent Has Accom- plished for Popular Education.

plished for Popular Education.
 From Denahoe's Magazine for December.l
 Ten years ago the book agent and the home library we're raritiss. To-day every village in the land knows the former, and in the latter may be found modest libra riss that go far toward completing and rounding off the education which the chill dren receive in tue public school. To 8 more or less extent the schoolmaster Is 8 tack master to the child. The book in the library at home is newer. It is 8 recres- ton as we'll as an instruction, and the les :. sons learned from 1t, and the ambitions created by it, sink deeper into the heart and enter more fully into the lives of the young men.
 There Is wholesome atmosphere about good book, which the child cannot help imbibing and profting thereby. The pa, rents realize this, and hence 1t is that, no matter how riotously the book agent may bs caricatured in humorous publications, he is always an interesting and oft times @ welcome visitor to the home. The collect or who follows In his wake may not arouse the same feeling of hospitality, but his mission Is with the sordid end of the con- tract
 Books that quarter of century ago were in the hands of the exclusive few have come within the reach of all. The book agent has reclaimed field that for years lay untitled. He has reached the homes of the people, and created in them market at ones the largest and most profitable in the world. Increased de- mand has made 1t possible for publishers to reduce the price of the standard su- thors. and thus two fold has been the pleasing that followed the path he trod.

A DREAM OF BEAUTY.


Architecture of Worlds Fair Build.
 ings-PrOfessor Weir's Talk.
 The third of the Bridgeport Scientific so- ciety's present course of lectures was de- lvered Tuesday night by Professor Weir of Yale university. The subject was "The Architecture of the Worlds Columbian Exposition"
 Professor Weir thought that the choice of location of the worlds fair was fortu- nate in every respect. It required the boldness, energy, originality and reckless ness of expense, which characterized the men of Chic go, to carry such an enor- nous enterprise to 8 successful compile tion. If the fair had been located in New York there would have been the usual un- seemly political struggle for it's manage. ment; the question of expense would have been taken into consideration, and "more. over," said he, i've of the east are too much influenced by precedent. Does it | accord with the established ideas and usages of the old worlda is the question ! asked"
 For the site chosen for the "White City | on the lake front, Professor Weir had noth- ! ing but unbounded praise. This cite, un promising at first, was transformed by Nr. Olmstead, the talented landscape gar. dener, into a veritable fsirylsnd; fit set ting for the jewels of architecture which were to follow...To MT. Olmstead more than any other one man is due the dream of beauty, which the finished enterprise presented.
 Professor Weir's illustrations and de scriptions were chiefly devoted to the i'm mense buildings which surrounded tn, Court of Honor.
 The lecture was no technical discussion upon architecture, but was rather iron
 the standpoint of the student of art Tn
 stereopticon views added interest to tn
 lecture, which was highly sppreciseed b.

As Pastor of Censer Church in Hart. fofd.
 HARTFORD, Dac 8.-Rsv. Dr. Lsmaon, ! successor in the pastorste of Center church, this city, to Rev. Dr. Walker, for merly pastor of Center church, New Ha- ven, was born in Hadley, Mass, and is fifty years old. He was educated at Will liston seminary, Easthampton, Mass, and was graduated from Amherst college in 1864 with high scholarship honors. He was ordained to the ministry in 1869, and soon after was settled as the pastor of the Salem street Congregational church, Wor- cester, where he remained fifteen years. He has been pastor of the leading Con- gregational church in St. Johnsbury for seven years, during which time he has conducted @ very successful pastorate. He is trustee of Amherst college and be- fore President Gates was elected was fa- vorably spoken of for the presidency. Dr. Lsmson took an active part in the re- cent proceedings of the American Board at Worcester and last year preached 8 gregational Council at Minneapolis, which has attracted considerable at tention. He is thorough Con- gregationalist, we'll grounded in the faith and of unimpeachable orthodoxy. He was described by one speaker at the church meeting last evening as of the 'emode-ate conservative" type of theology and by another as being ''considerately conservative" Another speaker spoke of his theology as resembling Dr. Walk CTS.
 The committee of fifteen has been in correspondence with Dr. Lamson regard ing the psstorate, but of course nothing definite will be known of his intentions un- til the society unites with the church in ex- tending the formal call to him.
 Dr. Walker became pastor of the Center church in February. 1879, and served un- til July, 1899, when he resigned and was made pastor emeritus. Since then the church has had no settled pastor.

these symptoms, even in chronic cases. Here Is an example:
 Capt H. 0. Lull, who is prominently identified with the G. A. R. in Vermont, was taken prisoner at the battle of the Wilderness and sent to Andersonville, where he suffered starvation as few men bear it and live.
 Capt Lull now lives in Montpelier, Vt. A letter from him reads:
 "Having been sufferer for long time with dyspepsia, found relief by the use of one bottle of Paine's celery compound. Having personal acquaintance with that eminent physician, Dr. Phelps, it gave me assurance that Paine's celery compound was what 1t purported to be. I put but little confidence in what zee advertised upon barns, bridges and fences, but think I know whereof I affirm when I say that Pains's celery compound cured me. cheerfully and without solicitation rscom- mend 1t to all."
 Paine's celery compound sustains against fatigue, conquers indigestion, sick head ache, and dread dyspepsia. It does it by bringing the nerves into harmonious action

Weston Once More.

Edward Payson Weston, who fifteen years ago was famous in England and America as pedestrian, and who travelled over 60, ,000 miles on foot in his matches and walks, being the first to make 550 miles in six days, is to resume pedestrian ism after long retirement. Weston is now over fifty years old, his hair and moustache are gray, and 1t has been years since he did any professional walking; but he has accepted an offer to walk from New York to Albany in three days, distance of 150 miles, without liquors or meat. This would seem to be no ordinary undertaking for man of his age at this season of the year. The walk will begin during the week of December IF.
 Weston's walking matches in this city and at Savin Rock years ago are still we'll remembered by many New Haven and West Haven people.
