an accident by which he lost leg. He had received a car of freight and the car, which had been shifted on a switch, was moving very slowly when MT. Barnes, who was present, thought he would like to stop it at a certain point. He attempted to stop the car by means of putting crowbar under the wheels, when he was thrown to the ground and g. wheel passed over his leg, crushing 1t badly Amputation was found to be necessary and owing to the badly crushed condition of the limb, during the operation, two nerves in some way became crossed. This had caused MT Barnes considerable pain and trouble and not long ago he de- cided to undergo an operation to have the trouble removed. Dr. Francis Ba- con of this city performed the last operation and MT. Barnes at first seem ed to be getting along nicely. but suf- fered relapse, with the result as afore- said, that he is now in serious con dition, from which his hundreds of friends in this city hope he will soon recover.
 MT. Barnes is a well known and pros porous business man of Southlngton. Two or three years ago MT Barnes married a Massachusetts lady and made an extensive southern tour for his wedding trip, spending some time in Florida. He is @ veteran of the old Fifteenth regiment, Connecticut Volun- teers, and is very popular with the old boys of that organization, who are greatly pleased at the prosperity which has attended his business ventures since the war.

E t1tamc1al.
Speculation in the Stock Exchange Yestcr-
 day Was Quiet.

New York, Dec 4-Speculation at the rule higher prices prevailed and the undertone of the market was firm from start to finish. London advices were favorable and at the start the foreign- CTS bought moderate amounts of the in- ternational issues.
 The firmness of the market was due partly to rumors that strong interests were quietly picking up stocks prepara- tory to starting a bull campaign early next year. The recent buying of the high-priced investment issues and of the grangers was credited to this in- terest.
 The easy condition of the money mar ket and the belief that still lower rates will obtain after the January disburse- ments have been completed tend to make recruits for the bulls.
 The declaration of a dividend of per cent. on Southern Railway prefer red had a good effect. The improve ment in the usually active list was con- fined to narrow limits, say A01 per cent. Sugar was strengthened early in the day by a rise in soft sugars of 1s cent and the certificates sold up to 117B. As of late, the advance brought out stock and the price receded to 1155s.
 Expert Little's report of the condi- tion of the Baltimore and Ohio prop erty led to break in that stock from 161s to 121R@13. According to MT. Lit tie, the company has a floating debt of over sixteen millions. Leather pre- ferred and Cotton Oil preferred were also weaker, the latter being sold on the poor statement for the year just made public.
 In the specialties Commercial Cable, which closed at 162 bid yesterday, sold up to 169 and left off at 160 bid. Wheel ing and Lake Erie was in better de- mand on the announcement that the Columbus, Sandusky and Hooking com pany had agreed to use its line from Bellevue to Toledo at an annual rental of 5000 The Wheeling company, it is also stated, has also decided to use electrical machinery in its coal mines, efecting a saving of Ss0,00O per annum.
 In the final trading the market was firm except for Sugar, which continued weak Net changes show gains of BQ5s per cent. outside of Baltimore and Ohio, which lost 3A per cent. Bonds were strong iii tone. Sales were g, ,S22, ,00O.

IMITATION COFFEE.
The Name Not Fancied by Postum Ceres
 Company.


 Company.
 Coffee drinkers may be interested to know the opinion of some competent physicians in regard to the use of Pos tum, the grain drink, in place of cof- fee. Let it be understood that the manufacturers do not decry the use of coffee by healthy persons, but there is a great army of intelligent men and women of the present day who cannot stand the steady, daily poison of coffee, tobacco and whiskey without feeling the effect in some serious bodily de- rangement
 Dr. F. F. Cassady, editor of the Medical Argus Minneapolis, Minn., writes, enclosing the money for third case, and Is kind enough to add: T fully coincide with your views in re- gard to the use of coffee and tobacco by inconsistencies (nervous patients) I am using Postum every day and am greatly pleased with it.
 A great many people who are not keenly sensitive in their coffee tastes state that Postum tastes so much like coffee that they do not notice the diff ference when it is served at breakfast. The makers do9snot claim however, that it has exactly the same taste as the finest coffee.
 It has exactly the same color, and it is just as piquant and pungent in it's taste as the finest Mocha coffee, but the taste Is distinct and belongs to Postum alone.
 It is made by the Postum Cereal Co, i linn, of Battle Creek, Mich, and it is not an imitation of any drink, but stands on it's own footing as a wonder fully palatable and delicious table drink thoroughly healthful and nourishing, and is made strictly of the grains. Ii | is impossible for anyone to judge of the perfection of the product without a 1 careful personal test Of it. | There are thousands of people using Postum, the health coffee, in place of 1 coffee, and who have been benefited in 1 their health to an extent that com mands their esteem and warm friend | ship for Postum.

There is one true specific for diseases arising from impure blood and a debili- tated nervous system, and that Is Paine's celery compound, so generally prescribed by physicians, It Is proba- bly, the most remarkable remedy that the scientific research of this country has produced.

ANTICS OF A CITY BOY.
BrOOklyn Citizens.

Brooklyn Citizens.
Its a wonder to me-" said the dear
old lady from the country, as she
stood waiting on the crossing, that
them electric cars don't run off the
track sometimes"
"Thcy do, ma'am," said the small
boy at her elbow, who saw his OppOr-
tunity.
"Mercy, me, child, and how do the
people keep from being run over?"
"They don't, ma'am. When one O
them cars goes a gce-whiz off the
track there amt time for ennybody
to get out OF the way.
'La, sakes, child! Let me get upon
them steps. Now are you telling ME
the TRUTH"
"S'opc to die, ma'am! But you amt
any safer on them steps than out on
the street. When they take anoti0n
them cars can climb any steps in this
town. Honest Injun, ma'am."
The old lady turned and looked at
the boy. She saw a frank face on the
surface OF which a few frccklcs
floated, mild blue eyes, tlllcd with in.
nocence, and just a twinkle of mis-.
chief.
She had seer boys before and knew
the trade mark. But before she had
time to apply her clubbcd umbrella
the urchin was grating down the
street. He had seen that expression
on a woman's face before.

NEW WOOL.

There is to be introduced into the
the United States from Peru Il new
kind of wool that grows on trees
which live for a lumber Of years. 1t
is a long tlcccy staple, quite a guam
tity can be gathered from one tree,
and is very useful in mixing with our
common sheep wool. Garments made
of the mixture arc almost or as good
as those made Of real wool. 1t is not
so good when used alone. The bring
ing and cultivation OF this new vcgita-
bic wool in the United States is only
an experiment, and if its cultivation
proves Il success it will be OF great
benefit. 1t is evident that it can be
raised with much less expense than
the sheep wool, and If the tree i.
what it is recommended to be, the
crop will not be subject to as man,
influences to rctlrd Il surity as The
sheep wool at any rate we believe Oul
farmers could raise it with a better
spirit for the free list than they d.
present wool.
