CLOSING PRICES OF CHICAGO STOCKS.
WHAT WAS DONE IN STOCKS.

Friday, july 6-p IN.
Speculation has been brought almost to a stand
by the violent Interference with railway traffic
at the West. The aggregate volume of trading
to-day was somewhat smaller than on yesterday,
Notwithstanding that several Of the industrial
stocks enjoyed more activity. The fluctuations
in prices in general were without significance,
save that they attcstcd the marvellous stabl-
ity Of the market under depressing influences.
Quotations from London We're lower for the first
time since the strikes assumed a serious aspect
and foreign selling orders were in the market
to take advantage Of any possible Improvement
in values The morning news unfavorable
from the seat II the labor war against the Gov
eminent authorities and the day brought adVices
OF increased rio,ing and spread Of the strike.
To the surprise Of superficial observers. an an
nouncement Of moderate engagements Of god
for export tomorrow contributed an unpleasant
item. Yet the railway list closed only at frac-
tional declines from Yesterday Inc hrst prices
generally measured the extreme loss OF the day
Where a slight further decline followed II was

doned his sport because he could not
find worm large enough to bait the
anchor with. These stories, however
true they may be, seem slightly exag-
gerated, but there are others quite as in
teresting, and more faithful to facts.
For instance, there is the story of q
man who arranged to give an elaborate
dinner to numerous and distinguished
company. The appointed evening ar
rived; the collation., an elegant one,
was ready to be served, but the guests
came not. Half an hour passed, and
still they did not come, and the host
became really uneasy. When the de-
lay had grown to an hour, and not
man of them had shown up, his feel
ings were indescribable. And who can
picture his agony of spirit when, on re-
turning to his room, he CHANGED to pull
open drawer, and therein found the
whole bundle of invitations which he
had forgotten to send outl And what
an absent-minded young man that must
have been who, while being married,
replied to the minister's question, if he
was willing to take the young lady for
his welded wife, by scratching his head,
and saying, Yes, I'm willing; but I'd
much rather have her sister. "-Hdr-

The Queen at Manchester.

Imagine short. only little over 8
feet, rather stout woman, with face,
while not possessing the least sign OF
what we should call beauty, but still
showing degree Of determination and
will power apparent to all, her body in
cased in plain dress of black silk and
her head surmounted with a bonnet,
very plain in appearance. and you have
as correct description as it lies in my
power to give of the lady W rose power
stretches over thousands of niles and
whose word is law to millions.
The first appearance of the queen in
the open street was the signal for re-
markable demonstration of affection and
enthusiasm on the part of the assembled
multitude. Loud cheers rent the air,
hats and handkerchiefs We're waved, and
from everywhere came cries Of welcome
Her majesty appeared greatly touched
by the heartiness of the reception ac-
corded her, and which she acknowledged
by frequent bows to the right and left,
each one of these being the signal for
another outburst of cheering. At this
point / could not fail to mark the
healthy appearance that her majesty
presented She seemed entirely recover
ed from her long and dusty ride in the
close railway carriage, and her cheeks
showed color that many younger
| woman would have envied. AS the car
riage ride increased in distance her af-
liability was more plainly shown by nu-
merous bows right and left.-Mdn

Newspaper Extract, A. ID. 1000.

A few persons riding in West Madison
street car last night witnessed an amusing
episode. The car was full, and stylish
young gentleman who entered was prepar
ing to stand during the rest of the trip
when two handsome ladies arose and po-
litely offered him their seats. He took one
with bow of thanks. Soon after another
man clad in cheaper attire and rather
plain of feature entered, but the young
lady whose seat the first gentleman had not
accepted kept her eyes fastened on her
newspaper and affected not to see him
The poor fellow would doubtless have had
to stand all the way had not the stylish
young gentleman arisen with flashing
eyes and given up his own seat The
handsome lady evidently felt the rebuke,
for she got out at the next crossing, whilo
a suppressed litter ran through the car -

EdIsOn's Health Notions.

They have q little cot at the laboratory
where Edison sleeps when he spends
night at the laboratory, which is not more
than 10 minutes walk from his handsome
house in Llewellyn park Upon this cot
he will snatch an hour and half's sleep
at night while waiting for the workmen
to finish an armature or to bore a hole in
some experimental steel. His meals dur
ing such times are sent down from the
house, and he may eat them working at
the bench or standing up or forget them
altogether.
This may go ON for days at time, and
Edison may not even take the trouble to
go to the cot but may turn in on heap of
sawdust or the soft side of board and
snatch few minutes of sleep. Mr.. Edi-
son long ago got weary of people who went
up to him and said, You will ruin your
health" Physicians gazed at him with
long face and told him if he kept this up
his days We're numbered
"They wanted me to take drugs" said
he to the reporter, but am my own doc
tor"
He has poor opinion of doctors who
write prescriptions designed to insert
strange drugs into a man. Mr.. Edison,
who is blessed with most rugged consti-
tuition and an elastic nature, has a curl
Gus theory upon which he doctors him
self" He holds that nature somehow
balances things When he has deprived
himself of sleep for several nights in sue
cession, he takes a long sleep to make up
for it. When he has been eating meat, and
his liver or his kidneys trouble him, he
suddenly turns vegetarian. THAT brings
me around all right" said he land then
If, after time, anything goes wrong l be-
cyip to af AGAIN when aVprythi inc is
justified"
81 eat what l like" says Mr. Edison.
1t appears to agree with him. One of the
things he likes is pie. He drinks very
little and yet is far from being total alb
stainer "When I was in France, they
told me that / must drink wine, or I'd get
the typhoid fever. So l began to drink
their wine, but after awhile my hands be-
gan to shake. l guess they only throw in
the typhoid fever to advertise their wine.
Tea and coffee and water are the best
drinks for me"

Old FOlkestOne.

There was primitive harbor sometimes
citing up and sometimes cleaned out by
the scour of the tidal currents. Swift
craft of moro or less suspicious appearance
would come to their moorings there when
their papers and holds would bear inspec
tion. But the chief trade of the little port
was transacted surreptitiously. luggci
with wide spread of canvas would show in
the of1ing toward dusk, and when the
watchers recognized the cut of her sails
signal lights would be flashed from among
chimney stalks and from garrett windows
The amphibious population to the west
ward would be all on the alert, and there
would be brisk going to and fro of shallow
but seaworthy boats before the beach OF
SYNDICATE Troops of numbering farm
horses drawn up among the sand hills in
charge of men armed with pistol and cut
lass, would be busily gathering their jaws
in their nosehags, knowing well that there
was serious business before them. Then,
If sudden descent of the preventive men
did not end in fireworks and "a flasco,
many a sleeper in peaceful inland home
steads would be awakened through the
night by the clank Of chains and the rattle
of hoofs.
And so many citizen grew in wealth
and responsibility, attaining the highest
municipal honors. His good lady and his
buxom daughters dressed in silks from
Genoa and laces from Valenciennes when
they went to their devotions in the Church
Of SITS Mary and Eanswith on the clih,
and the worthy mayor or the worshipful
aldermen kept it up with their guests over
supper into the small hours, on cognac,
Schiedam and Gascon or Spanish vintages
which had never paid shilling to the rev

that this office has any assistance from

funds to retain eminent counsel for his de-

friends and good lawyers was alone.
No one came to me and said She was q
good woman. Her murderer should re-

seemed to have left no friend to say good

friendless, and the murderer seems to call

The Tail of the Comet.

It is one of the most wonderful of all
the phenomena that confront us in the
study of nature that the tail of the comet,
visible through such vast area of space,
Is one of the most transparent of objects.
The tail of the comet is much more trans
parent than the earth's atmosphere, as this
at It's best would in bulk act as an opaque
curtain. But stars are seen almost as
distinctly through the comets tail as
through the adjacent atmosphere. Com
cts change their form and appearance with
the utmost rapidity and finally back
steadily away from the sun, like a court
Ter out of the royal presence.-Nep York

The Path that the Angels Show.

l sit in the transept shadows,
The warm light streaming in,
That hath bathed the vernal meadows
In the dear days that have been,
When we wreathed the same sweet affairs
with the hyacnth and roses
Now we bring the sheaf and yellow leaf
To shine in the autumn CLOVIS.
In the sunset CLOVIS of autumn,
When the woods have many hue,
And the harvest fades-and the vintage blades
Clean in the nearer view;
Soon the feast of the saints in heaven
VIII dawn for the saints on earth,
AS the dying year prepares to greet
In its death the Christ child's birth.
OH the shrine in the waning autumn
In the sweetest refuge then
For those who live in the westward stage,
For those who live on the harvestage
OF a life that nears its setting, when
The heart is warm though the head is gray,
As they calmly gaze on the sunset wayi
For the Lord of the Harvest points to them
As the next dear stars in his diadem!
They calmly gaze on the ebbing sands
OF a life that once was dear,
on the furrowed brow and the withered hahus,
on the fringes of the bier;
They have had their life as the Masters gift;
There is not cloud but that has had its rift {;
His bread their stalf-his blood their shrift,
In the days that so near;
OH the beauty of the sunset glow
In the upward path which the angels show!
Obi days of the dying autumn,
When the light shines feebly in
When we linger DER the summer dream,
And the bright hopes that have been,
I'D 81, va IN IN
And we dream of the dear ones that are blest
There's a sweeter light in the sunset glow,
lis the upward path that the angels show.
