THE MARKETS.
Vail street Review.

New YORK, Dec 2i.-'rhc local street
railway companies shares which have
been such Il notable feature in the stock
market all week were opened with fur
thcr bound upwards this morning, and
though there were sharp reactions during
the day on pr,iit-tiking these stocks
closed at the hishcst. The level of prices
in the induStrais and i'm the Changers
was at one time from / to > points above
last nights close. The high point was
not fully maintained at the close in the
general list but substantial let gains are
the rule. Daring The afternoon the mar
kct took on q distiuCtivcly holiday char
actCr and fell at times inlu stagnaton,
prices yielding quite sharply but being
restored by the final StifftninE in Metro
poitan Street railway and Third avenue.
There was no particular news to account
iur the movement Of prices though the
bank statement with it's further decrease
of over $t000,O00 in the surplus reserves
had the effect Of checking the activity
in the market for the time being. In fact,
the market did not take on the same ami
nation again during the remainder of the
day, even when the announcement was
made Of the engagement for shipment
from England by tomorrow steamer of
100000 in gold. Total sales were 2S% 400
shares.

PUBLISH TIE LISTS.
From the Washington Star.

In view Of the frequent ana persistent
charges Of fraudulent gnd improper al
lowanCc of pensions, it would seem that
one of the very best investments the gov
ernment can make would he III the pubii-
cation in at least two newspapers OF FEN
eral circulation in each county in the
United S.atcS of full list of an tn. pen
sioncrs residing therein, and the amount
Of pension paid in each case, together
with the claim or ground upon which tho
allowance was made. Such publications
would procure, by comparisons and dis
cuSsionS Of the subject in ,hC several
ncighbOrhoOds thus reached. a volume of
reliable and useful Information not OBJ
tainabc i'm any other way, ana which
would be Of nCalCulable value, inasmuch
as the result would be either the Topping
off of fraudulent cases or satisfactory
evidence that the charges Of fraudulent
payments are without foundation i'm truth.
To accomplish either one of these ends
would be worth to the country many
times the cost Of securing them.

So he got him some gloves that were

And he badc all the heavy weights watch

A LITTLE SUFFERER

Face, HANDS and Arms Covered With
Scrofulous Humor5 How Cure
Was Effected.
"Wheh five years old my little boy had
scrofula on his face, hands and arms. 1t
was worst on his chin, alt though the sores
on his checks and hands were very bad.
1t appeared in the form Of red pimple1
which would tester, break open and run
and then scab over. After disappearing
they would break out again. They caused
intense itching and he little sufferer had
to be watched continually to keep him
from scratching the sores. We became
greatly alarmed at his condition. My
wfe's mother had had scrofulG and the
only medicine which had helpd her was
Hoods Sarsaparilla. We decided to give
It to our boy and we noted an improve
ment in his ease very soon. After giving
him four bottles of Hoods Sarsaparilla
the humor had all been driven out Of his
blood and it has never since returned"
WILLIAM BAETz, 41G South Williams ST.,
South Bend, Indiana.
You can buy Hoods Sarsaparilla of all
druggists. BE sure to get only Hoods.

WoodenIcg Might Have Got Out o
JniI but Preferred TO Keep Corklcs


From the Sun.
Two one-legged men were confined
recently i'm a Jail I'm a little Kentucky
town. One had Il wooden leg and the
other who was a greater rascal and
had had more means at his command,
wore a cork leg Apparently well be-
havcd and quiet, both men got the
privilege of the prisoners walk which
ran around outside of the cells. Be-
yond this was the jailor's walk and
beyond that was--freedom
The cork-lcgged man was really a
desperate character. but sly and cum
ming. lie mcditated much on the re-
lation OF the iailor's walk to the out
side world 1t was only a step far
ther." he facctiously told his compan-
ion. who, admired his humor. In some
manner he became possessed Of a file
with which he converted a case knife
into saw. with this he succeeded in
saving in two one Of the bars of his
cell He made a cunfidGnt of his fell
low prisoner, who expected to join him
in his escape The nlan was so well
concealed that finally nothing but one
hon bar. which could easily he sawed
in two during the night. stood between
them and liberty.
At almost the critical nome Mt, Wood
enlcg, thrusting his hand into his
trouCers' pockct-on the side where he
didn't fecl--fuund that Corkleg had de-
liberately robbed him Of his pile, five
dollar bill. He hesitated Il moment.
Freedom is sweet; he knew that, be-
cause he had been deprived of it's joys.
But revenge. to him, was sweeter Just
as his companion, flush with success
was almost ready to step out into the
wide. wide world. Woodenleg squealed, l,
and the escape was frustrated.
The two are still confined in the jail,
and. while the one meditates upon hon
esty being the best policy, the other
ponders over the question: rs liberty
or revenge the sweeter?'
