THE LANGUAGE OF FINGERS.
Their silent Talk Is Important In Board q
Trada T,sn,sachiona

Trade transactions.
Thousands Of visitors who yearly 90
to the board of trade and watch the
traders on the exchange floor from the
public gallery express surprise at the
rapid manner in which business is trans
acted. As rule, the wheat pit attracts
them, and they do not understand how
commodities change hands with such
lightning rapidity, and how hundreds Of
thousands and millions of bushels are
bought and sold in an incredibly short
space of time is to the novice pro-
found mystery. They do not know that
the brokers doa great deal of their work
by finger signs, seldom understood by
the outsider.
1t requires only the fraction of a SEQ
ond to buy and sell so, 600 bushels Of
wheat
"I'll sell 80 Sep. at an eighth, ;"
cries one Of the brokers, and he has
hardly finished speaking before another
on the opposite side yells HSold" " The
trade is put down on the trading card,
and the transaction, which involves over
$50, 600, has been completed.
The number of bushels offered for sale
is indicated by holding upone finger for
each 6, 600 bushels, So in selling so, 900
bushels the broker simply holds up both
hands and waves them from him, which
explains itself as wanting TO dispose Of
the lot. In addition to this, brokers
have a complete finger code by which
the condition Of the market is commu-
nieated. The signs generally used are
as follows:
The first finger held up stands for
one-eighth of 1 cent, as the traders all
know the main price. If, for instance,
the first sale Of wheat after the market
opened was made at 60 cents and the
next at COX cents, the trader simply
holds up one finger for the advance of
one-eighth of cent The upward posi-
ton Of the finger is to show the upward
course of the market. Should the market
be bearish and the price decline to 59X
cents, the signal for this would be a
closed hand, with the thumb pointing
downward, This shows the price seven
eighths of cent and the status of the
market downward. Chicago Tribune.

no strength, but the hammer cannot be
detached without the knowledge that
some force holds it fast TO the ironwork,
and herein lies the secret BY contact
with the dynamo your hammer has been
magnetized and will pick up bits Of
iron or steel that are not too heavy for

Taols and small nails, too short to be
held in the fingers when driving, may

Discovering Great Mine.
One Of the most productive mines in
California was discovered through an
accidental fall Of the discoyerer. Ho
was one Of a hunting party that had
gone out from San Francisco during tho
Christmas holidays While passing
along the side Of a steep hill ON mar
row trail his horse suddenly slipped,
and with his rider went down into the

and some distance behind the others, no

where to be seen, but the place where
his horse had slipped and fallen over
the bank, together with the traces Of
the fall, was plainly visible. Following
the tracks made by the falling horse and
man, and when near the bottom, the
men suddenly came upon an interesting
spectacle. Just behind clump Of bushes
which the man and his steed had
crashed through ON their way down
stood the horse, apparently uninjured,
while near by, on a slab Of rock pro-
jecting from the snow, the man was
capering like an Indian at a ghost
dance.
The first impression Of the resouing
party was that the man had gone sud
denly crazy, but as he caught sight Of
them he suddenly ceased his gyrations
and shouted for them to approach. They
came. when he showed them several

off the moss from the stone and dis

was appropriately named ''The Christ

kYRLE RELLEW,s VANITY.
How 1t Was Once Sadly Disconnected by an
American Girl.

American Girl.
There had been lively discussions
some years ago over a then seemingly
important question theatrically, and in
deed socially, WAS or was not Kyrle
Bellew possessed Of great yanityf''
believe the matter has never been
definitely settled, though in an indiyid-
nal instance recall it would seem there
was valid ground for a decision in the
affirmative.
The occasion was M informal "even-
ing" at Mrs. Lester Wallack's, and
gathered about one Of the tables were
two or three young ladies, Mr.. Bellew
and other men. Bellew had some bits Of
paper in his hands, from which he was
idly fashioning little boats. II hear, >"
he drawled, addressing no one In par
ticular, "that your American navy is
badly in need of ships. propose to
remedy the trouble by presenting You
with few" One girl spoke up quickly
In slightly sarcastic vein, II am sure
we all render sincere thanks in the
name Of the American navy"
The actor favored her by an especially
comprehensive glance, and finishing his
boat penciled a few lines ON it and
rather patronizingly tossed it over TO
her.
The girl picked the boat up slowly
(this was the first occasion she had met

oYerspread her face, but looking the
young man steadily in the eyes she said
