New Work.

New YORK, April 22.-The stock
market was cratic in the course
throughout the morning. The profess
sional element had the market all to
themselves, and were apparently much
mixed if the frequent changing in their
position afford any criterion. The tenn
per of speculation changed almost half
hourly. and the fluctuations, if not wide,
were frequent, although the sales were
small, aggregating only 123, 1919 shares.
The continued engagements of gold
for export to Europe had de-
pressing effect, while the Unexpectedly
good bank statement led to sharp rally.
At the start prices ran off 4 to rs per
cent, the latter in General Electric,
which touched 81, the lowest quotation
of the week. After 1890 a. m. the shorts
showed a disposition to cover, and an
advance of 4 to rs per cent ensued.
General Electric rose from 81 to 9918.
Manhattan from AS to 1464, American
Cotton Oil from 4S34 to 45, National
Cordage from 5SI to 5939, Ma
tional Lead from 81 to SO, Lake
shore from 1917 to 1919, Chicago Gas
from S3% to IS, Rock Island from Sl4
to 821l. American Sugar from 1907 to
1917, and Missouri Poetic from Az to
1917. After the bank statement had
been discounted the bears made another
raid in which Lake Shore touched 1274,
Manhattan 144N, General Electric 975S,
Missouri Pacific Az and Northern Pa
ciic preferred SO. Final quotations
showed a rally of g to Is from the low
est, but the tone of the market was
generally weak.
The Post says: GAS might have been
exnected. the sterling exchange market,
the real center of the weeks monetary
sensations, changed this morning into a
state of distinct weakness. That yes
terdas's top rates were abnormally high,
was plain to all observers. The posted
sight rate of $4,000, a figure never
touched in eight years past. reflected
simply a panic among remitters; en-
couraged, not improbably, by manip-
ulative bidding up of rates.
To cool headed bankers, the
chance for a profitable turn III
sterling exchange was such as has not
presented itself half dozen times since
the resumption of specie payments. 1t
was noticed in this column yesterday
that bankers with heavy London cred
its. at the height of the days excite
ment. drew exchange freely and sold at
the market. When it was learned that
treasury notes for gold. other bankers
equally observant, went promptly short
of exchange. Neither of these opera
tions involved the shipment of gold,
and the best witness to the
actual violence of the demand
was the fact that this fresh
supply of bills, coupled with the heavy
sales against today's gold shipments,
only relaxed and did not utterly break
the strain. The situation, then, is clear.
SO whelming was the days demand
for bills, and SO completely have the
wants of importers been anticipated for
a week or more to come, that, barring
general panic. decline III next weeks
rates is simply inevitable. If bonds
were to be sold abroad by our govern
ment. a break of doubled rapidity must
follow. The situation, all things con-
sidered HIS been one of the most eX-
traordinary in financial history"

LOOKING GLASSES.
Something About the Queer Mir
rOrs of Old.


II Secolo illustrate.
Looking glasses of old were highly
polished metal plates. They were small
and provided with handle. Grand
ladies lntrusted their mirrors to the care
of female slave, whose duty it was to
keep them clean and free from stain or
rust, and hand vt to her mistress when
the latter required 1t.
The Chinese and Japanese formerly
used mirrors made OF simple metallic
plate. The Japanese had story OF the
invention of the mirrors. The sun god
desS, they said, once upon time got
into great rage about something and
retired to cavern, vowlnx that she
would never come out again.
As she was the Mother of Light her
retirement put the whole earth in dark
ness. The other gods and goddesses did
all they could in order to persuade her
to come out again, and finally invented
a mirror, which they placed at the en-
trance of the cave.
The angry goddess looked at it, and
seeing, as she thought, another goddess
whose beauty was equal to her own,
emerged, mad with jealousy. from her
retreat, and the land was again llluml-
mated by the light of the sun.
Glass mirrors are supposed to have
been first used IN Sidon. Like almost
everything else, they were very dear
for long time after their introduction.
We read III letter, written IL 1878 by
Co lbert to the Count AuvauX. shat even
If mirrors had been manufactured in
France at that time, nobody but the
! king would have rich enough to buy
one.
The annual manufacture in Europe
at the present time. according to the
| latest statistics we have been able to
get, is something like 1,850,000 square
! yards of looking-glaSS.
In the mirrors of today the light is re-
! hected by Il layer of silver or an ANAL
| gam of tin, but a proportion of light is
/ lost in the process Of reflection, and the
image is less luminous than the orig
inal.
The value of looking glass is usually
estimated by the thickness of the glass.
| because the thicker they are the stronger
| they must be: but, speaking seienti-
! tically. thick glasses are defective, be-
cause the outlines of the image reflected
are less clearly defined.
There are really three reflections, and
consequently three images in every
glass mirror; one from the upper sur
| face of the glass, the second from the
| lower surface, and the third from the
metallic layer at the back.
An ideal mirror is one with a per-
! fectly fiat surface; but it is Gully pos
| sibe to obtain this result in compare
lively small glasses. The larger glasses
| do not reflect true image because it is
! not possible to make them quite Hat.

ORIGINATING GARBAGE.
How the Work Is Done in New
England Cities.

HOW the " DIX As DOH0 HI NC"
England Cities.
Boston Herald.
The consumption of garbage by ere
nation has been begun in quite mum :
Der of places in this country. and the
one which is an object lesson to our
other cities in Massachusetts and New
England is the double-tire system now
in use in.Lowell and in other parts of
the country. This crematory is brick
structure, 40 feet long, 10 feet wide and
IL feet high, with a stack Is feet in
height.
The top of the furnace is reached by
a platform, and the garbage is collected
in carts aud dumped down the slopes
into the feed holes in the top OF the
furnace. After the furnace has been
charged two fires are lighted. The
flames pass from the first fire to the
garbage piled on the CRATES, and the
gases and smoke attending the COM
bustion then pass to the second fire,
where they are consumed. All the
products of the burning of the garbage
must pass through one of these fires.
We have not room for detailing how
this system is managed, but the results
are such that it works successfully
wherever it has been tried, and its
adoption in many of our large cities is
apparently only question OF time.

WINTER WHEAT CROP.
Only One of the Great Producing
States Has a Fair Crop.

States Has a Fair Crop.
TOLEDO, o., April 22.-During the
past four days S. A. King Il Co., of this
city, have received reports from 1895
leading grain dealers and millers,
covering every county of the great
winter wheat states, which raise
two-thirds of the winter wheat in the
nation. Ohio makes the most favorable
showing. TwO-thirG of the reports say
excellent and the remainder report an
average crop. Ohio raises about 49,,
100000 bushels per year. Most of the
reports note an improvement since
April /, and the average
condition is somewhat better
than a year ago. The area sown
was almost as large as the pre-
vious fall and very little was winter
killed. Kansas, which last year raised
II, 900, 900 bushels. or nearly as much as
Illinois, Missouri and Michigan COM
bined. now has the poorest prospect and
for not much over half crop. The con-
dition Is still growing worse; while the
area sown was increased little, there
is a much larger amount than usual
being plowed up. Indiana reports indi-
cate a fall in the average crop. The
condition has been improving, but
does not average quite as good
as a year ago, when they raised 49,
10000 bushels. The area sown there
was a trifle less, but not over the
usual amount has been plOwed up.
Illinois, Michigan and Missouri now
promise below an average, Rnd all
about the same. They raised about
q. OOO, OG0bushels last year. Missouri and
Illinois show no material change recent
| iy, but Michigan has been improving.
Illinois and Missouri have poorer out
| look than year ago, and Michigan
only a tritie worse. The area sown in
| Missouri was fully as much as the
previous fall and almost as much
as IN Illinois and Michigan. Illinois
reports nearly quarter plowed up,
Missouri nearly fifth and Michigan a
trlfie more than the usual amount.

mains in these states. Michigan has

GENERAL AND THE BULL.
The Dignitary Was Not Known tC
the Ill-Mannered Animal.

Inc
New York Telegram.
Once there was very important
state official of California who thought
everybody knew him or ought to know
him, says ex-Judge Rowland in vne of
his after-dinner stories. One day he
was walking through field when bull
addressed him in an undert0ne and
made for him, with its head down and
horns in position to raise him. He was
a state official, q man Of dignity and
political power and of natural POM
posity.
But he ran. He ran surprisingly we'll.
He ran even better than he did for
Office and he got the fence first. He
clambered over, out of breath and dig
nifty, and found the owner of the bull
calmly contemplating the operation.
what do you mean, sir?" asked the
irate official, ''by having an Infatuated
animal like that roaming over the
field?"
"Well, guess the bull has some right
in the field" said the farmer.
Right! Do you know who L am,
sIr?' gasped the official.
The farmer shook his heod.
81 am Gen. Blank"
"Well, why in thunder didn't you tell
the bull?''

THE WORD CEMETERY.
Origin of q Word Used by Every
Mortal Of Us.

Globe-Democrat.
Webster says cemetery is "a place
where the dead bodies of human beings
are buried" But that is all he says,
and there is not five-year-Old child in
the land that could not tell as much
without referring to his unabridged. !"
In tracing the derivation of the word
| find that the root is an old Jewish
word, "caemeteria," meaning dormitor-
ries, or sleeping places. Later on the
form was changed to ''reQuietOrium."
In that section of ''Camden's Remains"
which has the heading "COncerning
British Epitaphs," | find the following
(page 3S5, edition of 1850:
1.-The place of burial was called by
st. Paul 'semenatorIa,' in the respect of
a sure hope of a resurrection" The
Greeks call 1t "caemeteriop," which
means 'a sleeping place until the resur-
reetion." The old Hebrew word for
cemetery means "the house of the
living" the idea being that death is
only a protracted sleep that wihtermin-
ate OH the day when Gabriel blows his
trumpet.
