and strong markets abroad were the
Influences which We're uppermost in the
wheat market when business began.
Buyers took hold with more confidence
while short sellers, and in fact all kinds
of sellers, were inclined to be more
cautious. The Liverpool cables opened
at an advance of Esd. over last nights
closing prices. In the pit there were
buying orders for December wheat
coming direct from Paris, though the
quantity thus bought was not large
enough to attract attention. The pre-
dictions for continued fair weather for
the next Sc hours in ali winter and
spring wheat territory was very disap-
pointing to those who had expected
Yesterdays light showers in the north
west would become heavier and ex-
tend down into the winter wheat coun-
try. The fact that northwest recetpts
were large was not sufficient to offset
the effect of the dry weather.

ENTE RT4TNMENTS.
Polls Wonderland Theate,

The attendance continues large at Poli's Wonderland theater, as in fact it has since the beginning of the summer season at the house. Owing to the splendid character of the attractions provided the public is well aware that pleasure and solid enjoyment can al- ways be had there, In midsummer quite as much as in midWinter. What better attraction, for instance, has ever been provided at this theater than this weeks star feature, Charles R. Sweet? One can never tire of listening to MT. Sweets very catchy comedy, and his marvellous manipulation of the piano is quite as astonishing as his comedy is amusing. We do not think a more en- joyable feature has been provided dur ing the entire season at this house
 Among the clever vaudeville artists who make up the supporting company are MT. Ely and Miss Gardner. Abacco and Page, Mir. and Miss Eldridge, the three Franchonetti sisters, Goldin, and MT. Hamilton and Miss Heendon. One of the popular baseball puzzles will be given to every lady who is in attend ance this coming Saturday afternoon.

NATIONAL PROVyDENT UNION.

National Council Convenes in This City
 To-day-Important Change in Plan of
 Assessments to be Considered-NewE Ex-
 ecutive Officers Will Probably be Elected
 About 100 delegates to attend the su- preme council of the National Provi- dent union, which convenes in this city to-day for a three days session, are quartered at the Hotel Majestic The council opens in Warner hall at g o'clock this morning. A number of the grand officers arrived on the boat last night from New York. Others are ex- pected to-day.
 The council will be conducted on the same plan as the session of the nation- al house of representatives. and propos- ed measures will be presented as bills. One of the most important matters to be considered is a change in the plan of assessment. The plan as now fol- lowed is what is known as the graded system by which each member is as sessed according to his age, when he joins. The plan which it is proposed to adopt is the classified system of assess ment according to which the assess ment increases as the age of the mem Der advances. This is the system which John c. Gallagher of this city is en- deavoring to have adopted by the Unit ed Workmen. Ii is thought that under the classified system more young men would join than under the present graded system. It is expected that an entirely new board of executive officers will be elected at the present council

REPLIES TO A CRITICISM.

To the Editor of the Journal and Courier:
 Permit met to say In answer to the critical communication in regard to the anatomical museum now on exhibition at S37 Chapel street, our disply of mod els in our window is a free exhibition to the public of the most noted crimi- nals of the world ever produced and who kept the detective forces on both sides of the water hard at work to bring them to justice. Thousands of the New Haven public stop for hours at our windows to read and to study the faces of the noted criminals. We have a safeguard against all minors visiting our museum, which is for gentlemen only, BILLY HOMER.

 One hundred and fifty veterans of the First Connecticut Heavy Artillery held a reunion yesterday at Stewards, Mill lers pavilion, Savin Rock.

WHY NOT?

Some of our exchanges take oc-
cas;on this week to sermonize on
the subject of lynching, and cen
sure the people Of Tangipahoa par
ish for the recent lynching of
johnson and Joiner. Let us see
how the facts stand. They both
confessed that they killed the men
and women of the Cotton family,
five in all, by shooting some and
killing the others with axes, while
they were lying quietly asleep in
bed. Having confessed their
guilt, there was no need of a trial
by twelve men to prove that fact.
Hanging is the lawful penalty
for murder, but in the case of these
two demons in human shape, hang
ing was too good for them. There
was not a particle of doubt as to
their guilt, and so far as their
punishment by hanging at the
hands Of Judge Lynch is concern
ed, they got off very lightly, con-
sidering the fiendish enormity of
their crime, and were not given
their just deserts, by long shot.

Consumption that Does
not Consume.

Many physicians insist that con-
sumpti,es seldom are killed by the
disease alone; usually they are
Frightened to death. Two notable
and historic cases that formed ex-
ceptions to the rule were President
Andrew Jackson and the Duke of
Wellington, each of whom was a
consumptive youth yet afterward
became a great soldier, the most
prominent statesman Of his time
and country and lived to a ripe old
age. A still more wonderful case
is that Of New York lawyer,
millionaire and man of affairs,
who sixty years ago was given up
to die of consumption, but whom
as we write is ninety-six years of
age and apparently recovering
from a combined attack of pneu-
monia and heart failure. From
the character of the men alluded
to, the prolonging of life may be
attributed to ssmind cure'' of the
kind that has no nonsense in it;
on the other hand, resistance, as a
faculty, is but another name for
obstinacy, of which any human be-
ing can find plenty in himself if he
chooses to look for it

Eclipse Of the Sun.

An eclipse Of the sun will occur
next Monday afternoon, Feb. l, at
about half-past o'clock. It is
what is known as an annual OF
ring eclipse, which means that the
moon will pass across the sums
center in such a way that if an
observer were in favorable posi-
ton he would see a large black
spot in the face of the chief lumi-
nary, with a wide ring of light
about it. The eclipse will be Wis
sible to North America south of q
line drawn through Boston, Mem
phis and La Paz, Lower California.
It will be best observed in the
Southern States.

Want Protection.

Some of the large cigar manu-.
facturers of the country are agitat-
ing bill to be introduced at the
next session of Congress, requiring
every person manufacturing cigars
to pay annual license Of $50. Iii
said that the intent of this measure
is to make things shot" for the
small shops which employ one OF
few men each.
In other words, the large cigar
manufacturers want the Government
to enrich the few, by forcing
the small manufacturers out Of the
business. There was a short but
true maxim in the last campaign,
which is very applicable to this
case: "This Government cannot
enrich one man without despoiling
another"

Like the Messiah.

The Anglo-American Arbitra-
ton Treaty has been signed by
England and the United States,
and is now the law. This is a
long stride toward the securing Of
universal peace throughout the
civilized nations of the earth.
When this policy is generally
adopted, there will be a grand dis
armament ON all sides. Battle
ships, guns and swords will be
beaten into plough-shares, pruning
hooks and bicycles, and the sol.
diers and marines will find peace
full and profitable employment in
the factories and on the farm,
and grim-visaged war will become
but a memory of the dark ages.
