NEW YOEK, Oct. 2o.-Hugh J. Grant, who has taken the place of Nathan Straus as the Tammany candidate for mayor. has served ninc years as a TaInmany office holder. He was an alderman two years, three years a sheriff and four years mayor of the city. He Is still a young man.
 There would have been a tremendous surprise for New Workers had MT. Grant persisted in his resolve to decline the nomination. He could have been nomi mated if ho had chosen when the county convention selected Nathan Straus. He said then and since that business affairs made 1t impossible for him to accept Only ycStCriay Inc said: No no! A thousand times no!" But ho was induced to relCnt

On Thurs day one of the big machine leaders of the Democracy of the state spent three hours with MT. CFoker. and the long interview was devoted to the consideration of the tangle in this city. It was represented to MT Croker that he was tho strongest man in Tammany Hall, and that he must take the mayoralty nomination himself and so unite all factions.

 The strength of these splendid testimo- nlals coming from we'll known persons, gives to them such convincing power that the foremost men and women in the land are taking it because they know it will do exactly what people say it will.

 ''Nine years ago I had malarial fever which developed into a severe case of Bright's disease. l saw a celebrated specialist who said could live but a shor; time.

 Cotton below 6 cents and wheat below 55 cents, each lower than ever since pres ent classifications wore known. with ex- ports of gold instead of products at such prices in October. arc the salient features Tn business this week. Distribution of goods to consumers goes on fairly, with gains at nearly all points in comparison with last year, but not yet at a rato to sustain the present. volume of manufao- turing production, so that prices weaken a little
 The dry goods business and textile in dustries wern especially favored by the demand in August and September, Wholesale and then retail stocks have been rcplenishcd, and business waits for retail sales, which are as yet slower than was expected In cotton goods the new business has been narrow, and resump- tion by Fall River mills has depressed prices to sumo extent.

Muscle DeycIonment.

Some recent scientific researches. which can doubtless be trusted. show that the weight of muscles of animals was increased 10 per cent by proper periodic application of an electric cur rent, the growth being a true develop ment of the muscle. According to this. it will now be possible to increase to or der size ot any desired muscle without tirc>cm" gymnastic exercises by lying in soft chair and having the current applied. This, we suggest. might be done at night by an automatic appa- Tatus. thus saving time. Persons who are improperly developed may now be balanced or trucd up. Muscles shrunk, an by aC" may now be made plump again. Calves which nature or exercise have failed to develop sufficiently will now no longer be drawback to wear ing knee brooches or the short bloOmers of the female bicyclist. The question naturally suggests itself, What will happen if this process of developing muscles electrically is continued still longer? If some way is then found to develop the bones, the manufacture of giants by electrical means will be an easy matter.-Electrical World.

 NJ. Plancon's success in New York as O concert singer has equaled his success in operatic roles, and this part of his work has interested him very much. He is hon. estly convinced that his New York au- diences, whether they comprise a roomful of people at a reception or a hallful at a public concert, perfectly understand his French songs.
 What have you found to be the favor ite concert song with your audiences heret" he was asked
 'Oh, Schumann's Two Grenadiers,' " he answered promptly.
 Plancon is a strapping big fellow, stand ing 0 feet 3 inches in his stockings. He weighs about 220 pounds and is magnifi. gently proportioned. He does not believe in athletics, but in spite of that is as strong as a giant. His voioe is the best basso in the world, excepting only Edouard de Reszke, and he Is also a magnificent actor of the French school.

 Plancon is very modest and when asked recently in New York to say something about his professional career he said that he had sung in the grand opera in Paris for ten years, during which time he had sung every bass role in the grand opera rcpprtory, with the single exception of Bcrtram in Robert le Diablc.''
