THE OBJECTION NOT GOOD.

There are people who have objections
to advertising matter in the columns OF
a newspaper. The ground OF objection
is that they do not want to read ad-
vertisements. Now this objection Is not
good, for oftentimes these advertise
ments convey valuable information.
For instance. how else would the trav-
cling public learn Of the excellent din
ing car service Of the Wisconsin Cen
tral lines between st. Paul and Chicago,
or the general comfort OF travelling over
this popular line. For particulars call

 New York, Aug. 4.--The great majori- tyof the sales of stocks on the exchange to-day was made at prices very sub- stantialiy above last nights closing. But the market succumbed in the last half hour to a sudden selling movement induced by profit taking. The effect was to wipe out nearly all the earlier gain in most stocks, and to leave the average level of the market but little changed from yesterday.
 The sales of all stocks attained an agpragate of over 53O,OO shares. The dealings in the last half hour were all at lower prices and the only stocks to escane the effect of the fall were those not included in the later dealings. Ex- ,.snt for the final decline the market was almost a repetition of that of yes- terday. eoplous purchases being made

LET THE YANKEES COME ON"

Another German Newspaper Thinks the
 Distance Great Enough to Talk Big.
 Berlin, Aug. 4.-Under the caption, More Insolence from America" the Deutsche Tages zeitung prints an arti- cle beginning, Tt Is high time that the high spirits of the Yankees should be humbled. They think there is nothing they cannot permit themselves when dealing with Germany" It then quotes the editorial utterances of a New York newspaper to the effect that the wholesale colonization of Brazil by Germany should be met by similar ap- peal to the Monroe doctrine, as in the Vevezuela case, a policy In which the president would be amply supported by American public opinion.
 Since when, asks the German news paper, "have the Yankees established 8 protectorate over Brazil? Let Presi- dent Mckinley launch as many ulti- matums as may suit him and the much vaunted American public opinion be- hind him! We shall colonize the coun- tries we please, and if that does not please the Yankees, why let them come on. We will polish them off all right. (Nit ihnen werden wer schon fertig)."

Cheney of Newburyport, Mrs. Annie Lewis of Boston and Mrs. Alice Newell Hunt of Miller's Falls.
 Both morning and afternoon sessions yesterday were of much interest. The headers say that several very remark able cures have been effected. Persons came upon the platform with all sorts of alleged infirmities, some with canes and others assisted by friends. and in every case after a few minutes treat | ment the afflicted person walked off apparently restored to health. The eases for the most part were blindness | deafness and lameness, and several per. 1 sons declared to the audience that sight or hearing had been restored or lame | ness removed.
