OAKLAND, CAL, June 9.-Chris Davis,
the 12-year-old son of George Davis
of Contra Costa County, was instantly
killed Yesterday afternoon by the north
bound train of the California and Nevada
Railroad. The boy was seated on the
track, and, it is thought, he was asleep.
The engineer did not see him, and after
striking him the train passed on, leaving
the mangled body in its wake.
The lad was out with some boy friends
on n tramp, but was separated from the

very strange that the trainmen did not

Az Head Money.

When DR.. Schliemann was digging at
the supposed site of Troy, he uncovered
the remains of several ancient cities which
had been built one after another on the
same hill. In the second layer from the
bottom he discovered masses Of silver In
the form of axe heads. DIR. Cote now
suggests that these were intended not for
implements, but for money. Bronze axe
heads have also been discovered In ancient
remains, mingled with metal pieces In the
form of rings, In such manner rs to sug-
gest that all alike were inteued to serve as
money. After the axe head bad disappeared
as actual money the memory of IT was pre-
served In the coins of Tenedos, which bore
the figure of an axe head. DIR. Cote also
suggests that tho wedge OF gold" which

copies long time, sometimes severai

count time and all unforeseen obstacles IN
one short period. While il is true that
Europe must buy considerable portion
OF her food supplies in America this year,
as was the case last year. yet the totai
wheat crop this year will be somewhat
larger than last year, according to the
latest returns TO the Department oil Agrl'
culture at Washington, and, under those
conditions, the natural tendency OF the
price OF wheat should be downward. At
ready il has shown some signs OF break
ing and it would not be surprising 20 see
further decline. un,ess the crop is da'
mayed by Insects or unfavorable weather
conditions before harvest time.
The copper market continues IN its
same strong position and, but for the
dullness of the market at this season oi
the year, prices undoubtedly, would re-
cord at least a slight advance. The eX'
ports of the metal are still satisfactory
in amount and the domestic consump
ton is believed to he improving. AT any
rate, il is thought that no great addi-
tons are being made TO the visible or in
visible supplies, despite the large produc-
ton of the mining companies. Prices
are holding at 11b@A cents for Lake
ingot and at these figures assure con-
tinuation OF recent maximum dividend
returns. As an instance of the position
OF the electrical industry, which employs
vast quantities OF copper, it can he stat
ed that the large works OF the Westing'
house Electric X Manufacturing Co. at
Pittsburg, Pa are running on fu'l time

The robin, that "pious" bird, Is very
quarrelsome, and 1t exasperates one TO
watch him wasting the precious hours OF
food in hunting another hungry robin up

blackbirds too, are very annoying in the
way that they snatch up lump of bread
and fly off with 1t, only to be chased about
for the rest of the morning by other black
birds, while sparrow makes square

BosToN, Mass August 1G, 1897. |
The bull movement last week did not |
make 30 much progress a. IN the week
previous, but the upward swing was
sustained however, and the week ended
with prices higher, on the average, than
the week before and, OF course, at the
highest point 90 far during the rise.
Early in the week the total daily tran
sactions on both the New York and Bos-
ton exchanges reached record figures,
which makes it evident that the public is
now present in stocx speculation to
far greater degree than in years past.
The advent OF the public in the stock
market, generally, is sufficient TO warrant
the belief that another advance OF five
points all along the line will be recorded
before any serious setback occurs. The
buying fever is spreading rapidly and it
.is necessary only TO say that such and
such stock il going up to induce more
buying.
The buying fever Is much like the mad
rush 10 Alaska after gold. Thousands
of people are now on their way to the
Klondyke gold region who never saw a
placer gold mine and who do not know
the first principles OF mining, but who
think that all they will have to do is to
go out in the morning with a shovel and
wheelbarrow and return to camp al
night with load OF the precious dust
Just so with majority OF the public il
stock speculation; they seem to thinl
that all that is necessary is to fill out al
order to buy something, no matter a
what price, or whether or not the Sc
curity has any merit, and then tell thei
broker to send them check for the pro
fits. Reason is thrown to the winds and
in the scramble for prof s which vii
ensue after the rush to buy s over, man
n novice will find that they have PAL

EVOLUTION IN CARRIAGES.
Why the Compartment System Remains
ON English Railways.

Why the Compartment System Remains
on English Railways.
When railroads were first started in
England, the carriages for personal trans
portation were constructed by making
long body frame, mounted upon trucks
and placing on il three stagecoach bodies,
all being well bolted together. The trav-
cling public was thus given accommodate
tions which in interior arrangements at
least, resemblcd very closely those TO which
they had been accustomed, and after soms
demurring the new order of things was
gradually accepted. As the art of car
building progressed, however, it was soon
found much better to construct the whole
affair as one piece of work, but the intlu-
ence of custom was SO strong that the
British railway carriage is still built on
the stagecoach model, and it is to this
cause, rather than to any other, that tho
compartment system owes its being. AL
though the carriage is practically built as
one vehicle, 1t is ornamented on the out
side by holdings, curved to follow the old
lines of the stagecOach body, and even
when these holdings are omitted, in the
lower class carriages curved stripes OF
paint are put on to tell the story OF the
evolution of the car from the coach.
But there are other examples of the alb
suriity Of initiating in form construc-
tion of which the need no longer exists.
The motor carriage is already in evidence,
and it, too, bears the earmarks of Its
| horsy, though horseless, origin One OF
| the latest forms of these carriages bears al
over indications of the existence OF thu
| horse that isn't there. In front there is {
| high leather dashboard to protect the rid
ers against the splashing from the heels o
| the absent animal, while the finish of TIT
heavy trimmings could only have emanat
ed from the establishment of builder o
carriages made for horses, and the who'll
vehicle looks as if it ought to have pal
of lively animals in front of it to make
look complete. 1t is indeed difficult to Sc
rid of old ideas, even when the necessity c
their presence is absent, but the menta
inertia which makes such things imposs
BILE is probably inherent in human nature
and its elimination requires long cours
of education and experience.

A Relic of the SIX Nations That Eas Near

A recent dispatch from Syracuse told OF
the death of Chief Thomas Webster Of tho
Oncndug:s indians, and of the suCgcquehf
discovery TAT nearly all the great wan
pun of tho lroquois Coniederacy, Of which
Webster was the keeper, had disappeared.
The disanrCaranco of this wampum Is

Is probable that much of it will be restored
If, as has been stated, 1t has found its way

The great wnmpum of the Iroquois In
dams was composed of four belts Of she'll
heads of varying lengths and widths,
worked in designs to tell the story of the
events which they were intended to cele.
brate. The wampum is sort of historical
record of the most important events In con-
| nection with the life of the confederation,
| Few whites have seen the great wampum.
| 1t was supposed to be jealousy guarded
and to be produced only on great occasions,
such as a great council for the election OF
| O president of the confederation. The In
dams were prevailed on, however, to show
it at the Onondaga county centennial four
or five years ago.
The long belt is the federation agreement
among the Six Nations, and Is the most
highly priced of the collection. This treaty
of confederation is composed chiefly OF
white shell beads, the figures and the coun'
Gil house being wrought in beads made
from black clam shells
