DEMAND FOR SMALL STOCKS.
Investors Hedging With Speculative
Securities and Low-Priced Shares.

..
The call of the mining exchange
yesterday was almost featureless with
the exception that the little stocks re-
ceived the lions share of attention at
the hands of the brokers. and the drift
Of the market seemed to be in the di-
rection of cheap speculative stocks.
In the listed securities the bears got
in their deadly work and nearly all of
the gilt-edged investment stocks suf-
fered. In this class Geyser Mercur.
Geyser- Marion and Northern Light
were the only shares that were able to
hold their own, and the reason given
is that they are gold properties. Nam
moth was weak at the quotation, and
Utah, which has been quite strong dur
ing the past month, lost ground badly.
Eagle was in good demand at the
figures given below.
The unlisted stocks were also de-
pressed. although there was some ac-
tiVity in some of these shares. Little
Pittsburg was shaded a little in the
bidding and transfers were made at
decline under former quotations.
Dalton was a favorite at Ia and cents,
and it is given out that the insiders are
buying Richmond & Anaconda was
also in demand and changed hands at
rs cents. Hercules scored advances in
the bidding, but holders stood out for
fractional gains. Sacramento, which
has been hanging between two fires for
the past week. was unchanged with but
little demand for the stock.
The transactions of the call were as
follows:

Nearly all boys and girls show in
some way at some time what they are
to become when they grow into man
hood and womanhood.
A Swedish boy fell out Of window
and was severely hurt, but with clench-
ed lips he kept back the cry of pain.
The King Gustavus AdOlphus. who
saw the fall prophesied that that boy
would make a man for an emergency
and so he did, for he became the fam

A woman fell off the dock in Italy.
She was fat and frightened. No one
OF the crowd of men dared to jump in
after her; but a boy struck the water
almost as soon as she, and managed
to keep her up until stronger arms got
hold of her Everybody said the boy
was very daring, very kind, very
quick, but also very reckless, for he
might have been drowned. The boy
was Garibaldi, and II you will read his

and his wife got on her knees
And began to manufacture things with
elegance and ease.
She gathered a lot of barrel slaves and
made a window seat:
She thought of new canary cage and
hoopskirt was her meat;
She painted old shoes with liquid gilt and
hung them over the wall;
She covered a keg with turkey red for q
hatrack in the hall;
She made some beautiful picture frames
of her husbands cast-off socks,
And built a table and sideboard out Of an
empty dry goods box
She hung the coal scuttle over the door
Ctwas lovely. so she said:
She turned hideous hen house into q
handy folding bed;
plaid underskirts;
She made some parlor lambrequins Of her
husbands flannel shirts;
She planted palm in his old silk hat and
tied up his cane with bows,
And what she didn't finally do, the Lord
He only knows!
The husband puned and pined away and
sickly grew his soul,
As he saw her making a standing lamp OF
pitcher and curtain pole.
And his step grew slow and his cheek
grew wan as she hammered away
with force,
Amazing a fancy japanese screen Of a
rickety old clothes horse.
One day she began on a chandelier, and
then he went outside
And swallowed poison, cut his throat and
shot himself and died.
