fully and found nothing unusual about
her. She is fourteen years old, strong
and well built, and her pulse beats reg
ularly. He took her into a neighbOr'S
house to see if anything would hap
pen there, and found that her presence
produced no effect. On her return to
the Hoffmans Barbara went into a
room adjoining the kitchen and at
once every vessel fell from the shelf to
the floor. A few minutes later she hap
pened to lean against a child's carriage
that stood at the open door, and
straightaWay small. heavy stool
flew through the air and hit her with
one leg On the head.
On the following day Barbara went
TO the doctors house, and he and she
sat for half an hour in the kitchen.
The doctor watched her closely, and
noticed that she was occasionally seized
with a curious tremor. Nothing I'M
usual, however, happened in the
kitchen during the sitting When Bar
bara returned to the Hoffmans', how
ever, the same old disturbance began.
ana the upshot was that she left the
place and went home to her mother.
since then the Hoffmans have enjoyed
rest, and, though Barbara has Wis
tied them more than once. her old
kitchen enemies have paid no atten-
ton to her
Or these strange occurrences which
were witnessed by many reputable per-
sons, Dr. Wolfram offers a plausible
explanation. Electricity, he thinks. is
at the bottom of them A spiritualist
who witnessed them holds that thew
were the result of animal, or. rather
human, magnetism. Barbara, says Dr.
Wolfram has a great deal of electric
1ty IN her, and this came into play I'M
der favorable conditions. When she held
any object in her hand or passed near
it, that object was attracted by the
electricity in her, and was moved
thereby. When she went into strangers
houses there was a lack of electrical
force, and so nothing happened This
case, then, in his opinion, simply IL
lustrates the working of positive and
negative electricity, just as the weather
illustrates it,
Still, 1t is strange that there should
be more electricity in Hoffman's house
than in other houses, and that there
should be such an extraordinary
amount Of electricity in an ordinary
little German servant girl Possibly one
reason why Barbaras presence in other
persons houses produced no unusual
commotion is because she may have
been tired or out Of sorts when she en-
tered them. Anyhow, it is a singular
case, and one which has aroused a good
deal Of talk.

the occupants, and they would drift
about the river or be towed as fancy
dictated from about till 11:30 o. m.
Occasionally a party would think II 80
a trif1e early to leave so delightful a
location and return to the hot flats

ported that one party forgot altogether

An affair Of this sort without re-
freshments would be Hamlet with
Hamlet left out, and so accompanying
every party is what is known as a re-
freshment boat, with man in charge
and several walters. This boat is
roWed from one craft to another until
the entire party is served. Sometimes
each party has a whistle which, blown
three times. is a signal for the re-
freshment boat to respond. Again the
practice is to simply pass the word for
the eatables and drinkables.
Occasionally it is the case that the
parties will be taken in tow by tug
and pulled to some place where all
hands can go ashore and enjoy a regu-
lation hop on terra firma. After they
have danced until they are warm and
weary, they return to the boats and
begin their journey home, or drift
about on the river until they are quite
ready to return to the point of de-
barkation.

MARKET SUMMARY.
FINANCIAL

CHICAGO, Aug. 7.-Wheat led the way to
a general decline in prices on the board to-
day. Foreign markets failed to respond to
the advance in wheat here yesterday, and
the cash sales were very moderate. Wheat
declined 1$s@11ac, corn sc, oats 12c, pork
TIC, lard &c and ribs TIC. Liverpool quota
lions were from I'D for September to sd for
December lower than they closed the day
before. That was the reason of a decline
here OF 1&c per bu to begin with, September,
which was bringing 771sc, as the session end
ed yesterday, started with sellers at from
fb4sQf6Ac. moderate amount Of short SELL
ing was evident on the first bulge to 1850
and grew in proportion the session pro-
crossed. Chicago receipts were 175 cars, of
which Is were new spring wheat. Minneapolis
and Duluth reported receipts of 1853 carloads
against ga the corresponding day last year.
The amount inspected out of store was 265, 00d
blu. About the only bearish feature in the
mornings news was the report of the Kan
sas crop, giving the yie,d as 50539, 600 blu, com.
pared with 3O7O9,O0O bu the year before
The South Dakota wheat crop was privately
estimated at 10000, 900, the governments esti-
mate for the year before was 27,5S3,000 blu.
The startling rumors to the effect that the
Russian government, intended stopping wheat
exports were discredited owing to the appar-
ent weakness in the foreign marts. Near the
end of the session the Paris market was re-
ported 21s06Ac per blu higher. A 1ac rally fol-
lowed, but the quotations were looked upon
as an error and had little effect September
wheat closed at 755sc.
1t was another day of liquidation in corn.
September opened at from 26% to 265sc, de-
clined to 263sc and closed at that. A fair
business was done in oats September opened
at 17@Q17Ac, sold between 174@167s%, clos
ing with sellers at 1870 Provisions
were very heavy. September pork started I'M
changed at $3.50, declined 121ac, closing at
$780, September lard opened a shade
lower at $4.32, declined to 1925 closing at
&25@427. September ribs opened unchanged
at -$4.S2, declined to $4.72Q475, closing at
$4.75. Estimates: Wheat, 200 cars; corn, 1,1o1
cars; oats, 500 cars; hogs, 10000 head.

NEW YORK STOCKS.

NEW YORK, Aug. 7.-Wall street has not
seen livelier half day of trading than that
of today for quite an indefinite period. All
OF the favorable factors that have been in
force during the week continued to exercise
an influence and there were added to these
with a surge to higher level all around.
Principal of these was the sensational jump
in Manhattan elevated stock, which opened
with running sales of a thousand shares at
1929 to 1G5 as against 1914 at last nights
close. Almost Immediately the price rose fur
steadied again and closed at 1862, a net gain
of IA. Probably the large existing short In.
terest in this stock was responsible for this
sensational movement In part. A story that
the Metropolitan Traction company had made
an offer to purchase the elevated system,
which offer was under favorable considera-
ton, sent the stock UP and uncovered stop
loss orders for the shorts. The scarcity of
the stock resulted in the shorts quickly bid
ding the price up on themselves. The Wander
blts also were in keen demand for invest
ment buying. Illinois Central leading Be-
lief in an improvement in the anthracite coal
traffic for the coming fall lifted that group to
igher level, the movement being especially
marked in New Jersey Central. Western
Union showed notable gain on prospects that
1T would be benefited by general Improvement
in business.
Total sales of stocks today were 377, 9O5
shares, including Atchison, 5000; do pfd.,
$50; Canada Southern. 1910; c. & o., 8,145;
pfd., $50; st. Paul, 27,6OO; Tobacco, $40;
Chicago Gas, 7,1SO; Sugar, $780, Western
Union, 27,690; Chicago Great Western, 1870.

story. Barbara, they said. was knit
ting in the kitchen one day during
the previous week, when suddenly a
knife sprang from the dresser and hit
a young girl, who was with Barbara,
pretty hard on the nose. Other kitchen
articles began to clatter at the same
time, and the disturbances did not
cease until Barbara left the kitchen
Next morning when she began to light
the fire heavy stone flew toward her,
and some strange fever of unrest SEEM
ed to have taken possession of other
kitchen utensils. Hoffman and his
brother now began to watch her closely
and they saw that many articles would
move toward her whenever she came
near them. For example, a heavy beer
cask toppled over, large water bar
rel shook SO much that 1t had to be
held In place, and a big trough in
which pigs were fed turned upside
down several times, and finally had to
be nailed to the ground. On another
occasion large jug of-water fell on
the floor, and, while Barbara was mop
ping 1t up a child's sleigh flew down
from its peg and hit her smartly on
the back.
In the cows stall similar commotion
arose while Barbara MIXED, and when
she went into the cellar the potatoes
danced the maddest can-can 1magin-
able. In word, the whole house was
turned topsy-turvy through Barbara.
When she went home to her mother for
few hours peace reigned both in the
Hoffmans' house and in Barbara's
home.

was sadly puzzled for way to get rid of the
pests Poisonous sprinkling mixtures, tar
and coal oil were all applied to the trees,
but the results fell far short of what had been
hoped The caterpilars fourished in spite of
all, and seemed to increase in numbers Then
the ingenious head keeper had a happy idea
He took the South American ant eater from
Its cage, and, securing it with a collar and a
long cord, started it up one of the trees.
The way the creature laid about with It's long

special Correspondence of the Globe.
NEW YORK, Aug. 4.-This is emf
nently a year for aquatic fetes, and the
water party has become feature Of
society. great and small. Perhaps 1t
is too much to say that the fad is en-
tirely new, but certainly 1T has not
been practiced in its present form,
which is to a great extent that of the
water carnival. On pleasant evening
on river and ocean there are visible
the prettiest sights that have been seen
on the waters in and around New York
for a long time.
The idea is to form a party of any
desired number, and, instead of char
tering a steamer large enough to take
all the guests, boats are secured all the
way from the tiny rowboat up to the
small-siZed steamer or rug. Quite as
often it is the tug as anything else,
because the idea Of having such a craft
is to have at hand at al times power
sufficient to tow the entire number of
