GOOD ANIMAL STORIES.

Woman Rescues Hen From Big MInk-Ps-
 tally Scared by Rain-Red Shawl Proved Dangerous.
 Mrs. Simeon White of North Stoning- ton has just had novel experience. While about her household duties her attention was attracted by an unusual commotion among the hens. Investi- gating, she saw what she supposed to be a large black cat making off with a hen which was on the bank of the old mill pond close by. Mrs. White suc- ceeded in recovering the hen from the jaws of the animal which to her sur prise she found to be an immense mink. AS she had no weapon his mink ship was allowed to go unharmed.
 A sequel of the long drought is re- ported from Thamesville. A kitten created quite little excitement Thurs day by its frantic actions. The animal, which had never seen rain before was out in the shower and became fright ened at being unable to escape the pelting rain drops. It was taken with fit and died in a few minutes.
 George Walden's famous bird dog, Trio, was badly bitten near Essex a couple of days ago by ground hogs Trio attacked one hog in the Birch swamp. Two more hogs made their ap- pearance on the scene, and proved too much for the dog. He succeeded in killing one but came out of the fight in used up condition. He will probably recover. Owing to the severe drought the ground hogs have left the cedars for the low swamp lands:
 Frank Wadhams of Goshen killed last week what he calls a black moccasin or horned snake. It measured five feet and three inches in length and had a horned tail. It struck at Mr. Wadhams with it's tail while he was trying to kill it and he thinks it as poisonous as rattlesnake.
 A little daughter of Mir. and Mrs. Murphy of West Waterside ventured near Stamford recently into a field where two cows had been turned out to pasture. One of the bovines, pos sessed of an ugly temper, pursued the child, who ran screaming across the field. The COW was chased off by two young men who rescued the child in time to prevent her being gored A red shawl which she wore probably excited the animal.
 The Ridgefeld Press says: Ridge field has been brought prominently be- fore the world in more than one in stance for its strange incidents and curiosities. There is now another re- markable monstrosity. A. cat bel ,ng- ing to Will Casey, jr., is attracting great attention. The little animal has five legs and six feet, two perfect feet appearing on one leg. Pussy is now five weeks old and is in perfect health. It is said that this kitten is endowed with marked intelligence. Instead of tearing the meat with it's teeth, the neighbors say that it cuts the food with knife and eats with a fork. We do not vouch for the latter statement.

"A Cup of Cold Water."

On Friday, August 16, a young man feebly stepped on the way train at Springfield, en route for New York. The conductor kindly gave him two seats facing each other, and placing the cushion of a third to form a pillow, he endeavored to make him as com fortable as possible. The day was warm and dusty, and as the train stopped at the stations, through the open doors the cinders filled the car, causing the invalid to become so ex- hausted and faint that he could scarce ly call for water. When water was giv- en him, in a moment the cry came again. "Water! water" This young man, twenty-seven years of age, was taken suddenly i'll in March and was sent to the hospital in Boston, where he failed rapidly from that dread dis ease consumption. The horror of dy- ing away from kindred and friends so grew upon him that he resolved to reach his relatives. Through the as- sistance of a friend he started on his long journey to New York citys Too weak to eat solid food at so early an hour, he had taken no nourishment that morning but "the cup of cold wa ter' was remembered, and friends were raised to minister to his wants A lady lent him her fan, A box of fruit was opened and the luscious pears quenched that feverish thirst A noble- hearted gentleman ministered to his wants; and after reaching New Haven brought him large bottle of milk. The young man wept bitterly as he saw this friend take his, departure. After of the lighter nourishment he was enabled to eat some sandwiches which another gentleman brought him when the train stopped at Bridgeport. As one after another whot had min. tstered to his wants left the train the poor fellow exclaimed, What shall |

do when you all leave me? do SO want to get home to die, one kind word or smile from a beloved friend Is better than all the paid service one can have" Few on that train thought the invalid could reach New York alive.
 To-day the writer received a letter of grateful thanks from which the fol- lowing is an extract:
 Yours of the 2sth at hand. You en- quired as to the condition of my brother Michael. It is indeed painful for me 10 inform you that he died in the Belle vue hospital Friday. August 2i. at li:bo D. m."
 Hoping this statement will be read by the friends who so kindly ministered to brothers needs. 1t has been sent 10 the Standard with the request that the New Haven papers will copy this sad but true story of one to whom the cup of cold water was given.
 His last wish was gratified: he sleeps with his kindred.

Wild Rash of shorts to Cover Their Cons
 tracts on Corn.


 New York, Sept, ll,-For days past some of the bear traders in stocks have been predicting that the government crop report for septem- Der would show the condition of corn to be only 55 per cent, The report. however. which was made public late yesterday. gave the condition as 6s.i per cent. and as a result there was a wild rush on the part of the shorts at the opening to get back their contracts. This led to a rise of A to K per cent. Burlington and Quincy, Rock Island and St. Paul naturally being most prominent in the r.se.
 After the first rush was over the trad CTS began figuring on the report. and when they found that the indications pointed to yield of only 100000 bush els they put out fresh short lines. They were not very confident. however, as the American Sugar and Manhattan compa nies both declared their regular dividends. notwithstanding the predic- tlons 10 the contrary made last week in the case of the former. Besides the Western Union executive committee recommended that the usual dividend be declared to-nhorrow, and further more 1t is as certain as anything can be In Wall street that the St. Paul di- rectors on Thursday will announce the regular payment on their stocks. These declarations are robbing the shorts of good deal of ammunition. and their attacks on the list are lacking vim. The statement submitted to the Vest ern Union committee was favorab ble. The Manhattan exhibit was not a par ticularly good one. but there will be a surplus after paying the dividend.
 American Sugar rose from 2lIs to lo6ts, reacted to l04b and rallied to loaa. There was considerable selling after the declaration of. the dividend. Boston was moderate seller, United States Cordage was heavy, falling to lSss and the preferred II. to 291s on runlors subsequently denied by Presi- dent Sturgis that the company was car rying a big stock of binder twine and that it's business this sea son had been unsatisfactory Chicago Gas was weaker on reports of fresh cut in gas rates The stock fell 1 to 73as and later recovered most of the decline.
 The high condition of the corn crop called attention to the securities of the roads traversins that section of the country, and on good buying Rich- mond Terminal advanced X to 19S. preferred l to 25. five per cent. trust receipts 1h to 35B. do sixes stamped 1h to 7oh.

 In the closing dealings the market was firm, prominent trader having bid up prices all around. Net changes for the day show advances of h to X per cent. In the inactive issues Baiti- more and Ohio advanced 2A to 7S%.; -, The bond market was active and stronger. Sales aggregated $1,s4S,00O.

The work shops are extensive and fur nish employment for many. Most of the clothing worn by the inmates is made in the tailoring department. Up- holstery, bookbinding, cabinet-making and printing are among the industries provided, the machinery all being run by steam power. .-...e
 The hospital Is a necessary adjunct, and the. buildings of this department will accommodate over a thousand pa tierts. The number reported as under physicians care July was S9S.

MARK TWAIN FAILS.
The Humorist's Publishing Company As
signs. with Heavy Liabilities.

NEW YORK, April l0.-The assignment
of Samuel J.. Clemens, known over the en-
tire world as Mark Twain, and his part
ner, Frederick j. Hall, who compose the
firm of Charles l.. Webster & Co., book
publishers at 81 Fifth avenue, was filed in
the county clerks Office. The assignee Is
Bainbridge Colby of 40 Wall street. The
assignment was without preference. and
the deed was signed by Mr.. Clemens in
this city. 1t was stated that his residence
is in Hartford and Mr.. Halls at Far Rock
away.
The assignment was a complete surprise
and is said to be made on account of the
failure of the firm to obtain money which
they confidently expected to get to meet
obligations just maturing. The liabilities
are supposed to be about s200 600, and Mr..
Clemens is personally responsible with his
partner His individual means are said to
be small.
The business was started by Mark Twain
to escape the exactions of publishers. He
thought the publishers made too much
money in proportion out of the authors,
aud after he had acquired fame and some
capital he proposed to get all the profit
there was out of his own books.

PATERSON, n. j., April 19.-The Pater-
son strikers are again making demonstra-
tions Of violence. At Nermorels dye
works they assaulted the workmen when
they left the factory. The police, who
were prepared for a riotous outbreak, had
surrounded the workmen to escort them
home. The strikers attempted to break
the police line but the ringleaders were at
once arrested. The remaining strikers
then attempted TO rescue their comrades,
but they were beaten of by the police.
