THE BUCKET SHOP.

A Woman Who Wanted Large Lots of Buckets. But No Grain. A well-known citizen who resides in Northwest Washington is a patron of a certain bucket shop, says the Wash ington Star. His wife was informed of the fact and accused him of it with so much directness that he could not deny it.
 "You made $2oO on buckets in some shop, didn't you?" she demanded to know.
 Certainly, dear. You see the war in Cuba creates a great demand for buck let's, and there is place where you can give your orders and sell them again at profit
 Nothing more was said, but the wife concluded to make some money on buckets and not let her husband know it. In some way she learned the location of the bucket shop, and going down town told who she was, and said:
 T want $100 worth of buckets. The same kind ny husband bought"
 It IS little Tlsky to-day, madam, said the proprietor, who did not want to explain the operations of the place.
 T don't care," she urged. Here's the money. I'll come after the buck cts tomorrow"
 The next day she appeared and was informed that the buckets had been bought and sold at S100 advance, but that the supply was exhausted and they were going into the wheat and corn business until more could be manufac- tured.
 T don't want any wheat or corn" she said; 'but ain't it mean, I can't buy any more bucllets?" And the husband congratulates himself o1 hc7v he sue ceeded in getting the bael-et shop pro prietor to stop his H-;fe's deaiings with out revealing their nature. while she is spring hat and a dress ahead.

THE HURRICANE SIGNAL
THE RIG WINDS BLEW-BIG TREES
 BOWED IND FELL.

Tho Diving Tower at Lighthouse Point Blown Down Into the water-Many Trees Blown Over and Rig Branches Blown Down in the City.
 The order came from Washington, D. C., yesterday to the local weather off, flee, Hoist hurricane signals" and the signals were hoisted accordingly. The order further stated:
 Severe storm off south New Eng land coast, moving northeastward; will cause dangerous northeasterly gales off the south and east New England coast this afternoon or tonight, probably in- creasing to hurricane force"
 Weather Observer N. G. Myers of this city said last evening that local indica- tions that the storm was moving to the north of us and that it would be at it's height here late in the afternoon, were verified. The brunt of the storm pass ed us off on the sea and made things howl along Nantucket and vicinity. The violence of the wind abated toward evening and was fiercest in the latter part of the afternoon. The winds were savage and tore down old fences in va rious parts of the town and toppled over few old house chimneys that were not in good order.
 Off on the sound the wind raised big waves which dashed and pounded up the winds were at their height there I,o ot ierJ, Point, and the next instant down came the tall tower from which the Merlin brothers do their daily wonderful div ing feats. It fell prostrate into the seething waters, but by great efforts ropes were attached to it and it was prevented from drifting away. The railroad authorities will have it righted again to-day.
 Down at Savin Rock many people congregated to see the big waves dash up on the beach and pound the rocks and the sea walls. It was a fine sight.
 A big fork of a big elm tree in front of pr. Anderson's house on Temple street was split from the other half and blown over yesterday morning. The tree had one trunk, but about five feet from the ground twin branches grew
 
 out. each about three feet in diameter. The one that the wind blew down land ed on the roof of the house Of Mrs. J. B. Robertson, widow of Mayor Robert son. Mrs. Robertson was in portion of the house opposite from where the tree struck and was rot shocked, but her daughter, Mrs. Manice, who was right under where the branch landed. was considerably frightened. The tree did but little damage to the house. The roof was not crushed, butsa roof guard fence was splintered all to pieces.
 Superintendent of Parks T. B. Kelly, with a force of men, began in half hour after the accident to saw the tree down He said the tree had never been considered dangerous The trunk was all rotten inside, but the rottenness was not visible on the exterior
 The wind also blew down large trees at Park and Elm streets and at Orange and Audubon streets.
 The heavy wind blew down two trees on Washington avenue, one on Colun}- bus and another on Howard avenues yesterday afternoon.

DRUMMERs FOR SOUND MONEY.

Big Campaign Meeting in the Whole sale District-Chauncey M. Depew and Mayor Strong Address the Initial Mass Meeting of the Commercial Travellers Sound Money League Large and Enthusiastic Crowd. New York, Sept 9-The commercial
 travellers of New York in great mass meeting to-day expressed their fealty to the principles of sound money and
 sound government, and their disap proval of the doctrines advanced by
 Bryan and his popocratic colleagues.
 They met at noon in a vacant store at the corner of Broadway and Prince street and for more than an hour lis- tened intently and enthusiastically to Chauncey M. Depew and Mayor Strong The meeting was held under the aus pices of the Commercial Travellers Sound Money league of America. Col onel John H. Black, president of the League of Commercial Travellers clubs, presided. Held as it was in the middle of the day, the meeting was of neces- | sity an informal affair. It was the opening of campaign that the organi- | zation proposes to carry m until elec- ton, for 1t will hold similar meetings | almost daily. A splendid room, in the heart of the wholesale district, has been secured for the purpose. In the center a speakers stand, hidden beneath red white and blue, has been erected About 1 this LOGO chairs are arranged There is a large amount of standing space in the hall, so that fully 5000 persons can gather there. And that number was there to-day.
 Mayor Strong was greeted with great enthusiasm as he hove in sight The | Commercial Travellers quartet sang a | lively song entitled Boom Boom Me
 Kinley and Hobart" and they were in- terrupted by the applause attendant on MT. Depew's arrival at 12:30 o'clock | The crowd arose and cheered yocifer- ously.
 Mayor Strong introduced Chauncey M. Depew, who received grand greet | ing Having complimented his audi ence, MT Depew went into politics. i There is no trouble with this coun- 1 try. 1t is the richest in the world | There is nothing wrong with our people, | They are the most energetic in the world. When We have no business
 there is something wrong with the gov
 ernment.
 | This is a non-partisan meeting, but | I am a hard and fast republican and
 I want to say that I believe that fool | ing with the tariff had something to do
 with it. But the fooling with the cur
 rency had a great deal more to do with
 it. This free silver business has been tried for 2,000 years, and has never worked, and the threats of the Chicago ! platform, the windiest platform ever l built, have destroyed confidence. | "Our friend MT. Bryan says he doesn't understand what confidence is. I tell | you that when there is no confidence | between the workmen and their em- | ployers, there is no business.
 They are dependent on each other,
 as much so as my head is dependent
 on my stomach. When my digestion is all right my head works best"
