SroCKs.-Wau street was stlll in bullish
humOr to-day, and the evidences multiply
that outsiders for the time being have
taken the course Of prices out of the hands
of the trading element who, having com
pleted their deals on the long side, are now
working for reaction. A feature Of the
days operations was the increased ANNA
ton ana strength in ell the coal stocks. The
pressure upon Distillers was relieved, the
story on the street being that an order to
sell 75, 600 shares had been executed within
the last few days The other Industrials
were strong throughout, but the advance
OF ? per cent in Sugar was not surpassed.
The only weak spot was found in Manhat-
tan. The Changers were quite active and
strong. Among the specialties the btu
minOuS coal stocks were prominent, but
owing to the reported hitch in the negotia-
tiOns for combination their prices did not
advance The general market showed a
healthy expansion, and after an opening
advance of fractional amounts further
gains were seen all over the list. Sales

1t is generally conceded that Mr.. Cam

demonstrated their political import
ance, and gave vent TO all their enthusi.
asm when the Fifth Division appeared
IN sight. This division, which was
composed exclusively of western
political organizations from the States
of Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin, Indiana,
Missouri, Kansas, Ohio, and other
States, was under the command OF
Col. John p. Hopkins, of Chicago.
The Sixth Division was under the
command of Gen. Pierce Young, OF
Georgia, on whose staff were NJ. j..
harmon, of Louisville, Ky.
A mounted battalion of exceedingly
good-looking young women led the
Cleveland and Stevenson Club OF
Montgomery county, Maryland. They
were the sisters and daughters Of the
members, and their dark riding habits
and low-crowned riding hats presented
q decidedly attractive appearance.
The spectators were not slow IN rocog'
nizing the novelty, and the bellies from
MARYLAND were cheered until their
faces were of carmine tint. The
organization of which they formed
the escort had SIG men in line, pre-
cisely the majority given by the county
to the national ticket.
The ex-presidents city was repre-
scented by the Cleveland Club of ln-
dianapolis, the first organized Demo-
cratic contingent from the capital OF
the Hoosier State to attend the inaugu-
ration of president.
Mr.. CIeyeland's competitor for the
nomination last June had his personal
ity impressed on the multitude through
the medium of the David b. Hill
Guard, of Richfeld Springs.
Hon. John 81. Birch, minister to
Japan, under the former Cleveland
administration, led the 250 members
of the Young Mems Club of Wheel
ing, w. Va.
A chorus of yells hearlded the Ken
lucky delegation, which was headed
by an express cart bearing life-sized
representation of the star-eyed god
dess. The Bandana Club of the same
State displayed between ranks pictures
of Carlisle, Lindsay, Watterson,
Grady and other living and dead apos-
ties of the Democratic faith.
The last organization the first grand
division of the parade passed the re-
viewing stand at 5:15 o'clock, exactly
two hours from the time the head OF
the division went by.

there a large number of prominent
nsrsons. including senator's, repre-
sentatives, foreign ministers and
officers of the navy were received.
The coming secretary of the nary,
Mr.. Herbert, there joined the party
with Miss Herbert.
The vice presidential party arrived
q, the hour Of 10 o'clock, and circuit
of the hall was made in a manner
similar 70 that Of the presidential
party.
Mr.. and Mrs. Stevenson, with their
son. daughters aud their friends, who
aceompanied them 70 Washington,
then Ioinei the president and Mrs.
Cleveland in their rooms.
Mr. aud Mrs. Cleveland left the
bal. room shortly before half-past 10
O'Clock. d,
The stevenson family remained
some later, as did also several men,
bers of the party who came with the
Clevelands.
Sir Carlisle was one of those who
remained and he and Mrs. Carlisle
held several inpromptu receptions IN
various parts of the hall. -,
Precisely at ~ o'clock the band
struck up "Home. Sweet Home" and
the assemblage quietly dispersed. The
whole proceedings were marked BY a
staid aud stately decorum more char
acteristic of an ancient minuet than
of n modern ball
The costumes worn by Mrs. Cleve-
land and Mrs. Stevenson, aud by the
wives of the cabinet officers were not
the least attractive of the many ele-
cant toiIettes displayed. The gown
worn by Mrs. Cleveland was made OF
heavy white satin, empire trout and
tight.fitting back. 1t was richly
trimmed with point lace aud embfoid-
cred with crystal beads. The embroid-
erv run up in rays about twelve inches
from the bottom of the skirt, which
was nointed in the back. The empire
front was outlined with lace and crys-
tai embroidery. The sleeves were
large puffs made of satin, dotted with
beads, and had stiff satin bows at the
shoulders. A heavy fall Of lace CON-
pleted the corsage. The gown was
severe in style, but very rich and
graceful

How Water Freezes.

A scientific paper describes how the pro-
cess of freezing is carried on In Natures
alchemy. BY means of two thermome-
tiers it is first ascertained that the tenn
perature of the water at the surface aud
at the bottom is respectively forty-eight
and forty-fve degrees. A cold wind
sweeps over the surface of the water, so
that the temperature is speedily reduced
to, say, forty-four degrees. BY this re-
duction in temperature it contracts and
becomes specifically heavier, sinking and
displacing the comparatively light and
warm water below, which rises to the
surface, becomes cooled below forty.four
degrees. and Immediately falls, displac-
ing the warmer water at the bottom,
which, in turn, rises, gets cooled and
fighter and warmer water. Aud so the
cooling and sinking processes go on, the
upper thermometer always indicating the
higher temperature, when suddenly the
magic point thirty-nine degrees is
reached, when all movement at once
ceases. The upper layer OF water is
still exposed to the cooling inhu-
ence of the wind, and speedily falls in
temperature, but still retains its place.
The upper thermometer now shows that
the water which surrounds it is being
rapidly reduced in temperature, but the
lowepone can remain stationary at 80
degrees. At this temperature, water is
heavier than at any other, and there, like
a stone, it remains at the bottom, and as
it is fully protected from outward inhu-
ences by the mass of uperincumbent
water, its temperature remains very
much at the same point. The water on
the top, however, having nothing to pro-
tect it, gets cooler md lighter every mo-
ment. Down the thermometer goes to
thirty-seven, thirty.fvc and thirty-two de-
grecs, and then Slight breeze ripplcs the
surface, and the next moment thin
sheet of ice spreads itself over all. The
ice, however, is cooler and lighter than
the water, so that it floats on the surface,
and acts as blanket, protecting the
comparatively warm and heavy water be-
low from being cooled So that even
during the sevesest winter only com
parativcly thin superficial layer of ice is
usually formed and the greater part of
the water remains unfrozen at the bot
tom. - Louisville Courier-J Journal

rhnrn Arc No "Ffxed" Stars.

The term "fxed,"as applied to the
,t,rs. is now known to be missioner,
for it has been proven that there is not
a stationary or "6xed" star in the whole
heavens, and no such thing as absolute
rest in any of Gods machinery. IL Is
hardly necessary to say that all the stars
are constantly in motion, some OF them
whizzing through space at the rate oil
$50, 900 miles an hour, more than three
the velocity of our earth on its orbital
track. This constant motion brings about
some startling changes in our stellar re-
lstion. in the course of scores OF centur-
les. But, however, the visual effect on
a generation or half dozen generations
presents the planets in a seeming I'M
changed aspect.-St. Louis Republic"

over a hoop which holds it away from

day as the inaugural address. 1t is
the inaugural tribute by politicians to
society.
In the Pension building, W here the
festivities eliminated, the scene was
dazzling.
CIeveland's first Inauguration anu
Harrison's election were each attended
by most sue cessful balls, held within
this building, but neither of them
could compare in splendor to the ball
held there tonight. Much of the
spectacular splendor of the affair was
doubtless d nc to the modern Develop
ments in the use of electricity. of
which full advantage was taken. The
scene was fairy-like. The scent of
flowers, the combined radiance Of
myriad electric globes, The dainty
blending of green aud gold and white,
sparkling fountains of tinted water,
perfect harmony of musical instru-
ments, and, what was to many the
most interesting feature of all, toilets
of surprising magniflccnce, all com.
bined to make a spectacle that will be
carried for many years in the minds
of those who witnessed it in It's full
ness.
Many persons of distinction from
all parts Of the country, Senators,
Representatives, prominent politicians,
Governors of States, officers of the
army and navy, diplomalists from
many lands, militia o fficers--all these,
with thousands of ladies, formed the
throng that passed through the four
great doorways of the building and
made merry in the ballroom.
1t is estimated that $4,000 people
attended the affair.
1t was . 40 O'Clock when Mr.. and
Mrs. Cleveland arrived at the pension
office building, accompanied by a re-
tinue of friends. Without going to
the rooms reserved for them, the
president and his wife started on
tour of the ballroom. The president
led the way, on the arm of General
Schofield, while Mrs. Cleveland fol-
lowed under escort of Justice Gray,
of the Supreme Court. Following
them came Col. and Mrs. Daniel S.
Lamont, Mr.. and Mrs, William S.
Bissell, with their daug hter-in- law;
Mr.. Hoke Smith, Mr.. and Mrs. j.
Sterling Morton, Mr.. and Mrs. Rich.
ard Watson Glider, Mr.. and Mrs. E.
Z. Benedict, Miss Benedict aud num-
Der of others.
AS the party entered the Marine
Band, at a signal of the doorway.
started up with "Hail to the Chief:
and this familiar air was the first init
nation given a majority of the people
present that the guest of the evening
had arrived.
The gathering had by this time
numbered fully 10000, and this i'm
mense crowd was necessarily so com.
pact, and the interest in the Cleveland
party so great, that there was little
room left for the promenade of the
guests of honor.
A few minutes only were consumed
in the circuit of the ball, and then Mr..
and Mrs. Cleveland and their party
went upstairs to their apartments, and
