New York, July 12,-Sugar occupied the
largest share of attention in the stock
market to-day, and its buoyancy was a
sustaining factor throughout the whole
list with the exception of such stocks as
were subject to special depressing infu-
ences. The course of sugar was direct
ed by the gossip from about the rooms of
the tdTlH conference IN washington, and
the price sufficiently indicates that this
pointed TO action that would insure prof
itable protection on refined sugar The
outside standing short interest. which has
been reputed to be large, showed a ner-
Nous apprehension of the strength of the
stock. The closing was buoyant at 1856
the high point and six points above the
low point. The movement to cover be-
came something like a stampede at the
close large blocks changing hands on the
rising price. The sales of this stock
reached total of over 81, 600 shares which
was over e of all the aggregate of all the
sales. The price reached l35 is the high

the price touched 100, and has since ruled
below that figure until to-day. Outside
OF sugar the market was dull, the varia-
tons of important stocks being small and
wider, variations being shown only in I'M
important stocks.
The opening was higher and quite dis
tnctively regardful of the London ex-
change, on which prices were lower The

The Living Ocean

1t is scarcely metaphor to speak of
the living ocean; life Is so intimately
blended with its substance, is so inhe-
rent in it's chemical composition. The
analyses recorded in the books do not
furnish a very exact idea of this COM
position; they represent the sea water
as mineral water, containing chloride
of sodium (sea salt), sulphate of mag
nesia, chloride of magnesium, carbonic
acid, carbonate of lime and of magnesia
sulphate Of lime, besides some traces of
potassa iodine, bromine and oxide of
iron. These analyses take no account
of the mucus, the gelatinous matter be-
longing or having belonged to the in
Vulnerable beings which the sea water
nourishes, and which, in effect, convert
the water into an organic medium. Take
some river water at it's we'll head, filter
1t and pour 1t into vessel; you can pre-
serve 1t for a long time wholesome and
drinkable, and only after considerable
, interval does 1t stagnate. But sea wa
ter, as soon as 1t is separated from the
great body of the ocean, and enclosed
in bottle or cask, dies-grows corrupt
and noisome. 1t can neither be trans
ported to any place nor preserved. And
yet it is not its salts assuredly which
corrupt 1t; no, it is the mucus; it is the
nyriads of invisible animacules which
Immediately perish and putrefy. Thus
the sea is strengthening tonic and SAL
utary only for the bathers who plunge
into it's waves.-London Echo.

CHICAGO MARKETS
Yesterday 3 transactions on the Board
of Trade

CHICAGO. Sept. 2.-Wheat was fairly
active within 1H range, closing Is above the
lowest and 1H higher than yesterday. The
market was very strong early, chiefly on
the strength of Liverpool, which opened
2% better, and later advanced rs more,
Northwestern receipts were moderate and
not much wheat offering. Private cables
stated that the market was strong with an
upward tendency and the demand increas-
ing; that Russian shipments were small
and the weather in England very wet. At
the advance there was free realizing by
local holders and prices receded Buenos
Ayres cables show that the Argentine
reported foreigners selling more than buy
ing. The market rallied somewhat on
liberal exports and strong closing of con-
tinental markets, but broke sharply in the
closing half hour on further proflt-taking
by holders. Corn was active in the first
half of the session and quiet thereafter,
within one cent range, closing at the
bottom, ss lower than yesterday. The
market was strong for time on unsatis-
factory weather and the action of wheat
but elevator interests and local traders
sold on the bulge and the market broke.
Oats were fairly active and fluctuated in
sympathy with corn, closing " lower than
yesterday.

walked into the station house early one
morning this week with something in his
arms that was not baby, although the
ease with which he carried his queer
burden was as if he had a founding in
his arms.
What he did carry was 200-pound
man, and while his associates are accus-
toned to see him perform wonderful
feats Of strength, they were astonished
at his latest venture.
Found him drunk in hallway" said
Ajax, in answer to the query of the
wide-eyed sergeant. Couldn't wait for
a patrol wagon, so carried him in," he
continued. The distance was about ten
blocks.
When Ajax had deposited his big bur-
den in cell he went back to his post.
There he found boulevard car stalled
and off the track. All the passengers got
out and the strong policeman put the car
back on the track as if 1t had been toy.
Whitman is 35 years old. He was once
on the stage. He lifts tremendous
weights with his teeth and stops runa-
way horses, no matter how wild, with
one hand.-New York World.

Pears Grow on Thorn Bushes

Secretary Shute OF the state board OF
horticulture received the following let
ter this morning:
college Park, Santa Clara County
California-My wife's father had a thorn
bush grated with pears. His. name is
william Cowdrig, and he lived about
four miles from Hapersville, Boone coun-
ty, N. Y, during the year 1861. He sent
me limb from the grated thorn on
which were seven pears. The fruit was
larger and better than that from which
the CRAFTS were taken. The grating w as
done by a man named Wag. Mr.. Cow
Orig requested him to try the experiment
of grating bud from sour apple tree
and one from sweet apple tree, cutting
the buds through the center and putting
half of each together, then grating (by
building). The result was apples, enc
half of which were sour and the other
half sweet. There was a perceptible
ring around the center Of the apples.
One side was green and the other side
was yellow. Some of the apples were
sent to me at Galesburg, ILL.,, at the
time. EDWARD D. STODDARD."--
