NEW YORK STOCK MARK 1T.

New York, Feb. 7.To-day's stock
market was irregular. The volume Of
business was on about the same scale
as yesterday and Sugar and St. Paul
were again the leaders in point of ac-
tigitg. Lower London prices for Amer
leans and free foreign selling here
again exerted depressing influence
upon the local speculation. The clos
ing was active and heavy in tone but
with the net results general gains.
Trading in railway mortgages was on
a large scale, the Readings footing up
$2,213,000. Higher prices prevailed,
with Northen Pacific issues strong
features at gains of las per cent.
Government securities were irregn-
lar in the early trading but closed
steady. There were heavy transactions
in the new coupon aggregating $780,
600.

federate veteran over 60 years of
age, who has not a gross annual income
of 500 who refuses to make applica-
tion for pension, claiming that he has
good health, is able to work for liv-

who are not so fortunate as he is"
A. r.. Church For Columbia.
Columbia Register: The First Pres
bytery of the Associate Reformed
church, at recent meeting, decided
to spend 500 for a commission to look
into the advisability of establishing a
church of that faith in this city. There
are several members of the church liv-
ing here, who might be the nucleus of
a congregation should it be decided to
attempt to form a church here. 1t is
not known when any steps looking tc
that end will be taken.

CTRAUSS DON'T BELIEVE THAT
there has ever been dry goods busin ess
cond ucted in this county that has grown
to such proportions and has made such
rapid strides to notoriety as has his busi-
ness in the past twelve months. Almost
with leap and bound the most reckless
competition has been pushed aside and
STRAUSS'S business is perched on the
highest pinnacle of success. For miles
around people are coming to STRAUSS
to spend their hard earned money, know
ing that their wants and necessities can
be supplied with less money than any
where else.
People have come to Strauss's and
found the store 80 crowded as to cause
them to wander elsewhere to make their
purchases, and after a few hours stroll
in other shops. fell into Strauss cur in
lull in business, and upon examination
of our goods and prices, have become so
dissatisfied with their trading that they
threatened to take their purchases back
and demand their money. We cannot
wait upon our customers in a minute;
but if you will be patient until we can
reach you, you will get both goods and
prices to satisfy you.
In the past ten days have picked up
number of bargains, and as it is my GUS
tom to give the benefits of my experience
and cash, enumerate few Of these bar
