CLOSING PRICES OF PHILADELPHIA STOCKS.
on THE STOCK EXCHANGE.

Monday, June Up. m.
Transactions in stocks were on fairly large
scale to-day and the market was generally strorg
and advancing. a sharp decline in wheat ana
corn this morning was reflected in higher prices
for the Granger shares which were also helped
by commisaion-house orders from the West.
There appeared 10 be a good investment demand
for the high-priced stocks. and also for many
priced shares whose prospects seem particu-
lary bright under the better industrial outlook
and the success Of reorganization committees.
The anthracite coal shares were weak under
professional attack. and the Industrals were IT.
regular and dull. As whole. the market pre-
scented better condition than in several days
past ana continued strong throughout the whole
day. There were no especial developments Whch
had any important bearing on stock trading. ana
the general improvement was due 10 the Deter
feeling which is daily growing In an crcies 81
business. London did not figure In the market 10
any extent and the quotations abroad closely iol-
lowed the fluctuations here. Foreign deahng IN
our stocks just at present Is purely professional
but even at that II Is small the foreign fpecud.-
ors still combining their attention to the SOuih
African mining shares
The advance In the price OF iron and the in
crease IN that business helped Tennessee Coal ana
Iron to move UP again to-day. and II advanced
per cent. making a net gain In the day OF Z12 per
cent Next to this stock In point OF activity was
Missouri Pacific, which gained per cent All OF
the Southwestern group were active and strong.
and in the case Of Missouri Pacific large purchases
were made for peopl identified with the manage.
refunding Of the floating debt Of this property has
helped the stock. and the improved crop outlook
in the Southwest Is reflected In the stock values 81
all the Southwestern roads. The Pullman stock
was one OF the strong features Of the market, and
1t advanced over 2i2 per cent to l76M. Perhaps
the adjournment Of the Illinois state Legislature
had something to do with the advance In Pull
man, as during its session adverse legislation
against the company was possibility. The chief
net declines of the day were In Susquehanna and
Western preferred Reading. United States Leath-
er New-York and New gland and Jersey Cen
trail. The Vanderbilt shares were strong.

Fathers Must Be Careful There.

I Among the Indians of Britisl Guiana
usage bids the father go to bed when a
child Is born and allows tho mother to
return at once to her household duties.
James Rodway's recently published
book on that country explains the Gus
tom by a superstition which attaches
the spirit of the child to the body OF the
father. The author says:
"The father must not hunt, shoot OF
fell trees for some time, because there
Is an invisible connection between him
self and the babe, whose spirit accom-
panies him In all his wanderings, and
might be shot, chopped or otherwise
injured unwittingly. He therefore re-
tires to his hammock, sometimes hold
ing the little one, and receives the con-
gratulations Of his friends, as well as
the advice of the elder members of the
community. If he has occasion to
travel, he must not go very far, rs tho
child and spirit might get tired, and, in
passing a creek, must first lay across
1t little bridge or bend leaf into the
shape of q canoe for his companion"

A Leap for Life.

Samuel Brady seems to have been
as much the hero of the northeast por.
ton of the Valley of the Ohio as was
Daniel Boone of tho southwest.
Bradys residence was in that part
of Pennsylvania now called Washing
ton County. About the year 1880
large party of Indian warriors from
the Falls of the Cuyahoga made an in
road on to the south side of the Ohio
River in that part of Washington
County then known as Catfish Camp.
They murdered several families and
had recrossed the Ohio before effect
ual pursuit could be made.
Brady collected his chosen followers
and hurried after them. Near the
spot where the town of Ravenna, the
seat OF Portage County Ohio, now
stands, the Indians separated into two
parties. Brady's men also divided,
but they pursued the Indians to the
Cuyahoga. They were repuIsed, how
ever, and Brady directed his men to
separate, each one to take care of him
self. The Indians recognized his
voice, and having an inyeterate hatred
for him, left all other borderers and
followed him with united strength.
The Indians forced him on the banks
of the stream. Brady was as familiar
with every turn Of it as he was with
the streets of his town.
He directed his course to u spot
where the whole stream is compressed
by tho rocky cliff into narrow chan
mel of only twenty-five feet across the
top Of the chasm. Through this pass
the water rushes like mill race, chat
ing and roaring Mt its confinement.
As he approached the chasm, concen-
tratin9 his mighty powers, knowing
that life and death were in the effort
Brady leaped the pass at bound.
lie began to ascend the precipice on
tie other side, and the Indians, who
had refrained from firing because they
intended to take him alive for torture,
now shot at him. lie was wounded
severely in the hip, but not so badly
as to prevent his progress.
The Indians were compelled to make
q considerable circuit before they
could cross the river, but Brady's
wound troubled him, aud he made for
the pond, which was situated near the
road from Ravenna to the falls, known
in later years as Brady's Pond. lie
plunged into the water, swan beneath
the surface some distance and hid un-
der the trunk of an oak tree that com
pletely covered him from observation.
The indians were standing on this
very treo when they expressed their
belief that he had met death in the
water, within earshot OF the safely
concealed borderer.
The chasm over which he leaped is
known in all that region to this day
as Brady's Leap.

Ice Cream in Oklahoma.


When the recent storm was over In
Tina. Okla, the late householders
viewing the remains, were greatly sur.
prised at finding upon the supposed
site of the grocery large and solid
mass Of excellent ice cream in bulk
melting rapidly away under the sum-
but still good at heart. The explana.
ton, after all, was simple. The light
ming stroke which destroyed the roof OF
the building, and shattered every barrel
and bottle in the place, fused and melt
ed dozen milk cans, releasing thei,
precious contents. Directly over the
cans, on the shelves, were a number OF
paper bags OF sugar, q sack of flour and
seven bottles of vanilla extract, whose
released contents fell into the mass
Before the milk had time to flow away
1t was buried up in such haiistones us
even Oklahoma never saw before, O
fall of two feet occurring in almost az
instant. The ice balls mingled with the
contents of a dozen barrels OF salt
which had been standing about the
milk cans, produced such an intense
cold that the mingled milk, vanilla, SUI
gar and -four were Instantly solidified
on the surface, and In half an hour be
came solid mass to the core of excel
lent ice cream.-New York Recorder.

is now the wife of John e. Borden, O
wealthy Boston business man"
The detective went on to say that
Miss Lulu Manchester, then sixteen
years of age, had started from home
at o'clock in the afternoon, to pay Il
call around the corner. Continuing,
he said: "Of course, l had an idea
that she had lover and had eloped
with him. But not trace of lover
could find. Then I thought there
was some family trouble behind it all,
but again / wns mistaken. Next did
the usual dance from morgue to hos
pital, to the insane asylums, mean
while covering any clew that somo
idiot might bring ms, but it didn't go.
Twenty-Five days passed with no trace
of Miss Manchester. One day suave
young Italian called upon Mr.. Man
chester, and in quite good English ex-
planned that he represented q syndi-
cate formed for the purpose of alb
Quoting the daughters OF wealthy men.
in tho case of your daughter, ex-
planned the italian, she is in good
hands. She has not been harmed md
will not be harmed for one week more.
But in that time you must pay n ran
som of $4,000 for her return. If you
do not we shall kill her."
The outcome of this strange case
was related by the detective as fol-
lows: "My first idea was to arrest
the agent of the bandits, but when I
told him, he had the nerve to just
smile at me, and point out that while
l could arrest him and send him to
prison, could not get back Miss
Manchester, who would certainly be
murdered. What could we do? We
got him to take $500, and on the fol-
lowing morning Miss Manchester
came back home we'll and overjoyed
at her escape. She said that after
she had turned the corner she saw Il
cab approaching. When it got oppo-
site her it was driven to the street
curb, and the head OF n dark woman
appeared at the door. She asked Miss
Manchester if she knew certain ad-
dress. Drawing near to answer, the
door opened, shawl was flung over
the girls head, and she was pushed
into the cab and gagged. When the
cab stopped and she had been carried
into room it was dusk. The room
in which she found herself was sparse
ly furnished, while the windows were
barred and the heavy door locked. All
the while she was watched by swar-
thy Italian, her guard being changed
morning and night. She was given
all she wanted to eat and was told she
would not be harmed if she made no
effort to escape. That was all she
knew until she was again blindfoldel
and gagged and carried to cab,
which left her at the spot from which
she had been abducted. New York
Commercial Advertiser.

Disgusting Et.0ucttP.

In recent interview with Queen
Victoria, Nasr Ullah Kahn, following
the custom observed by his father, the
Ameer OF Afghanistan, in presenting
missive to high parsonage, wetted
all ever with his tongue letter from
the Ameer that he had been charged
to haud TO the Queen. The latter
looked at tho process doubtfully, and
finally decided that it would be better
for her not to take the letter. A Lord
in Waiting received the missive with
look OF undis2uised disgust on his
face. New York Times.

A well.known ex-detective told me
thrilling story of abduction. For
years this man was one of the leading

he retired to private life. "It was
just four years ago." he said, "when

that was SO much like that of Miss
Moore as to be startling. said at the

lieredity in Horses.

When Jim Wlcks, the man. eating
stallion from San Jose, fell backward
and broke his neck, he did the very
best thing he could have done. The
horse was evidently crazy, and it is
well that he can no longer hand down
to his progeny the crazy streak which
made him SO dangerous. He had no
more right to live than a wild, uu-
tanned, eating tiger. The quality
ofunrestrained ferocity is best checked
by pistol bullet. San Francisco
Chronicle.
