A STARTLING STORY. ,
One of Civil and One of
 War Life.
| Bravo Man Wins . Medal and a
 Woman Finds 1 Prize.
They Will Both Interest ou And Tell You Just what
 YOu Want to Know.

A most fascinating story comes to us from Montpelier, Vt., concerning MT. Wal lace W. Moves and his wife, prominent people of that city. MT. Moves fought all through the war with distinguished brave rv. He was in the battles of the Wilder ness, spottsylvania, Cold Harbor, Peters, burg, Winchester, Cedar Creek and others.
 He was wounded April 9, 1865, at Peters bur1. He is one of the few privates who have ever received medal of honor from the b. s. government for distinguished bravery, He stood on the wall of the fort at spotteylvania in the bloody angle, and was the only man that lived in that spot. Mir. Moves was wounded seven days before the final surrender, and up to that time never lost dsy during ths whole war, enlisting when r years of age.
 His wife had an equally interesting ex psrience. We give it to our readers in hel own words expressed in the following letter:
 II was completely run down." che said "and my nerves w.re in very weak con. ditlon. I had no refreshing sleep and fel, tired and dragged out all the time: wal 70 extremely nervous that when the door bell rang I would scream out, and if any of the children dropped anything 1t would affect me the same way.
 "My work was very hard and exhaust ing at that time. My appetite and diges. ton were very poor, and what l did eat did not do me much good. was one day going to my family physicisn for help, not being able to work any longer in that condition.

The Changers and Trunk Line Issues
 Were Weak From the Start-Final
 Dealings Were Characterized by Fe.
 verish ness and Irrex uiarity.
 NEW YORK, Feb. 12.-The feature of specula- ton at the stock exchange to-day was the heavi- ness of the grapgers and trunk line issues. These stocks were weak from the start, the little rally
 in the industrials near the opening having had
 little if any effect on them. St. Paul sold on Q story tbat the company intended to sell another
 block Of its general mortgage bonds. This was
 subsequently denied Burlington and Quincy
 was again weakened on the talk of e reduction
 in the dividend rate. Quite 6 little demonstra-
 ton was made against the trunk line group. es-
 pacially New York Central, which was depressed
 from 994 to 9s3z regular, and from 97k to s6at,
 seller O. Lake Shore fell from 1854 to 1854.
 Light eastbound shipments and reports that
 tranic conditions were not likely to improve soon assisted the downward movement.
 The railway list was also adversely influenced by the further break in May wheat here to 6356c, talk about serious losses resulting to firms and individuals in consequence of the phenomenal shrinkage in the price of the commodity, the blizzard at the west and the uncertainty regard ing senatorial action on the tsri6 bill. Reading was in better inquiry at slightly higher range, owing to Philadelphia advices to the effect that the management had succeeded in placing . block of coal trust notes sufficient to iquidats it's floating debt and thus release collatsras held by banking interests.
 The industrials presented 1rner front than the railway list. General Electric advanced at one time on purchases to cover short contracts. but when these orders wefe executed the stock lost the gain noted. Sugar ranged between 7s3z and so14, closing ct the highest point Traders were inclined to believe late in the day that the company would be accorded some protection by the senate. In the closing trading the market was somewhat flrmer for Lake Shore and New York Central, weak for the grangers and Louis ville and Nashville and about steady for the in- dustrials.
 Final dealings were charac'eFized by feverish. nesa and irregularity. Net changes for the day show losses of h to per cent, outside of . few stocks, such e Sugar, Beading, General Electric
 and New England, which gained h to M per cent.
 Railway and miscellaneous bonds closed weak.
 The transactions aggregated sI. I.esa.0D.

EVERGREEN CEMETERY.

Annual Meeting of the AssOctation-
 Features of the Annual Reports.
 The annual meeting of the Evergreen Cemetery association was held at the office of the secretary, B. R. English, No. 132 Orange street, last evening. On account of the bad weather, only . very few mem- bers of the association were present. The old board of directors and the old officers were unanimously reelected. Features of the annual reports are as follows: THE DIRECTORS REPORT.
 Tho directors, Button Mansfield, Fl. 0. Warren, J. 3. Dewel and John F. Doug- lsss, through President Mansfield, submit ted the annual report on the general af- fairs of the association. The report says | that bonds of the association to the | amount of $5, GOO have bean paid out of | the receipts of last year; $1 ,000 has been | given to the chapel fund and . permanent | fund has been established, the income of which is to be used for the care of the cemetery grounds.
 that they should no longer neglect the es- tablishmsnt of . permanent fund for the care of the cemetery grounds. Late in the year the directors voted to set aside 10 per cent. of the receipts from the lots for this purpose. The vote of the directors was passed SO late in the year, November, 1893, that only the sum of $162 has thus far been set aside This seems discouraginely small but persistent following of the ex ample thus set will justify even such be ginning and prove in time the wisdom of the act.
 The directors after announcing that 6 new catalogue of the names of the owners and additional information is in prepars- tion touch a subject of wide interest as follows:
 GAS to he affairs of cemeteries in gen. eral, we reiterate what we said last year in regard to Sunday funerals. We believe that they should be abolished as far as pos sible and 1t is with pleasure that we notice that at the last convention of the cemetery superintendentss resolution expressing this same thought met with hearty approval There is certainly growing public opinion in favor of this position. In the same connection we may speak of matter of a very kindred nature, viz Burial reform, as it is commonly called. Less expense and less display in connection with the or dinary burial than what we so often sec would be more in harmony with the uiet ness and solemnity due to the occasion and be at the same time an evidence of good taste, always @ desirable quality to culti- vste. The directors recommend that the superintendent be sent, at the expense o
 the association, to various cemeteries in thu country to exchange ideas with other super
 intepdents in regard to their duties.
