 The Stock Market.

New York, Oct. 19.--The advance in prices in to-days stock market was significant of the improved tone of speculative sentiment Quite a live short interest was eliminated from the market by yesterdays advance and the urgent demand from that interest satisfied. There were several fac tors that might have been utilized by the bears in the days developments The depression in foreign markets was so marked as to suggest some knowl- edge of pending political complications in the deeper financial currents Not only was this indicated by the heavi- ness of securities, a fall of 5-16 in Brit ish consols and of fifteen confines in French rentes, but in the excited con- dition of the foreign wheat markets orders to sell 15000 shares or upwards of stocks for London account. The DGtiIS ulu III EIdCI dNdI LLelIlSelVGS or this opening to make drive against Tobacco, Sugar and Northern Pacific The confident manner in which all of- ferings, both for London and the short account were absorbed, took all the as- surance out of the bears and they made no aggressive move, with the exception of one drive against Tobacco, during the remainder of the day. The bears have counted much on the damaging effects of the war in the sugar refining industry, the conflict over the plug to- bacco trade and the reported diver gence of ideas amongst the powers of Northern Pacific over the question of dividend on the common stock to check any advance in the market on of railroad earnings and the generally prosperous outlook for business The movement of prices in these securities gave warning of compromises and ad- justments and took away the mainstay of the bear movement. The process of covering short contracts therefore pro- ceeded on large scale and large finan- cial interests offered aggressive SUD- port to the prices of properties in which they were interested An ex- ceedingly significant feature was the investment demand for small lots of gilt edge stocks. There were conspicu- ous movements of this sort in St. Paul preferred, Pullman, Great Northern preferred, Manitoba, Albany and Sus- quehanna, St. Paul and Omaha prefer red and Pennsylvania. The advance in Pullman, Manitoba and Great North- ern preferred extended from 31a to 4% per cent. and Manitoba closed with a bid per cent. higher than last night. This buying is clearly the pressure of idle capital seeking secure investment and is a natural concomitant of the growing ease in the money market. Call loans were made at per cent to-day and there is a constant increase in the supply of money offering both for time loans and mercantile paper Short sterling was slightly flrmer in tone in response to the advance in the bank of England rate A small engagement of gold for import was without influence or sentiment The days net gains equal a point for many stocks.

THE FOOD SHOW.
Unusually Large Attendance at the
 Armory Last Night.

Unusually Large Attendance at the
 Armory Last Night.
 There was a nimmense crowd at the food show in the armory last night. It was by all means the largest attend ance had yet. The public seem to be awakening to the fact that they have splendid and rare opportunity of sec ing on exhibition and demonstrated some of the finest goods manufactured or raised in the country. The crowd was unusually large, but it was a hap py one and every one enjoyed the even ing. The exhibitors did themselves proud, and the visitors were loaded down with samples and souvenirs. At waters orchestra played a fine pro- gramme of music and several numbers were heartily encored and repeated.
 The souvenir spoons given away by the managers are indeed beauties. Two hundred are given away each day, one hundred in the afternoon and the rest in the evening. Four hundred more spoons will be given away to-day and tomorrow.
 E.. F. Hampton is one of the recent arrivals at the show. His clever and skilful work with the gold wire has proved curiosity to the people and he was closely watched by large number of people last night.
 Mrs. Rorer will give two more of her celebrated lectures on the proper prep aration of food, one at o'clock to-day and one tomorrow.

THE CRAVE OF OSIRIS.

M, E. Amelineau the French Egyp- tologist who announced recently the q discovery of he torn!: of Osiris at Aby- dos in Egypt has sent to the Journal Egyptien the following account of his find:
 "The Egyptian texts speak very often of Osiris's tomb which is designated under the name of staircase of the great god They add that the high officials that lived short time after that epoch desired greatly to be buried near Osiris who had preceded them in life and in death. I discovered on the 1st of January of this year this famous staircase and the next day I struck monument which cannot leave any doubt as to the destination of the tomb which my excavations brought to light. Two years ago I had already begun a very important work if we consider only the number of cubic metres of sand removed and my diggings on one side had stopped at point three or four metres from large tomb. During my previous excavation I had found a great number of traces of Osiris wor- ship, but they could be explained by the general devotion that people of Abydos, as well as other parts of Egypt. had for the god of the dead, who was also called sometimes the Univer- sal Lord because men are all submit ted to deaths law. Durmer the whole of last year my time was devoted to works which I did not expect would last so long, and it was only this year that I was able to resume what was left uncompleted.
 ''The hill under which was hidden Osiris's tomb is about one hundred and eighty metres in length by one hundred

and sixty metres metres in width, and IS here and there seven or eight meares nigh. It was composed of millions upon millions of small Jars and earthen vases, also some large ones mixed up with sand, and few rare pieces of stone From the first days of the eX- cavations in December last, pieces of pottery of all shapes, entire or broken, were found bearing inscriptions written in hieroglyphic or hieratic signs. Large numbers of pieces mentioned the name of Osiris and were due to the priests, while a smaller number of pieces bore the name of Amou-Ra. A few of these inscriptions mention the house of Osiris. Among Egyptians a term generally used to designate tombs was eternal houses These discoveries impressed me so strongly that as far back as December recorded in the diary which I keep of my excavations the belief that I was going to come across Osiris tomb. If my discoveries had only related to a general worship, l would not have found the double (Ka) name of King Menes among the debris; I would not have found that the worship of the dead buried under the hill had lasted until the end of the Egyptian empire.
 ''In spite of all these proofs, lacked yet the details given in the Egyptian texts. The tomb was in shape a large rectangle, and on the four sides of 1t were series of tombs which would num- Der about two hundred Moreover, the metropolis, known in the country under the name of Om-el- l-Gaab- el-G -Gharby, contained the sepulchres of persons of very high rank, among them kings, the steles of which I discovered two years ago. So this first point was settled On January 1 appeared this fortunate staircase mentioned by the texts The next day l discovered unique monu- ment. It was granite monolith in the shape of bed decorated with the head and legs of lion. On this bed was ly- ing mummy bearing what is known as the white crown holding in his hands, which came out of the case, a f1agellum and pastoral cane. Near the head were two hawks, and two more were at the feet The dead was designated by the inscriptions Osiris, the Good being The hawks were la belled, 'Horus, avenger of his father and the goddess Isis is also designated by her name. This monument is 1-70 metre in length. and about a metre in width and height The tomb itself has the shape of a dwelling, with a court yard in front. It contained fourteen rooms, and the staircase five rooms to the north, five to the south, and four to the east. The western face was open, The two extremities. south and north, were closed by wall on the east side. The tomb was about thirteen metres in length, twelve metres in width, and one-half metre in depth There were evidences of fire in it. I found at the bottom of the rooms indisputable proof of spoliators This fact of the tomb having been destroyed by fire has ren- dered sterile great part of my labor. This is to be lamented, and the case is hopeless, for what@i lost Is lost for ever."

NOTABLE PIANO PLAYING.
Martha Washington Temple, Daughter

Martha Washington Temple, Daughters
 of the Golden Eagle.
 A notable event at the meeting of Martha Washington temple, K. G. E., last evening was some very remarkable piano playing by a pretty lad of eight years, Darwin Wood, son of Professor D. R. Wood of Philadelphia, organist and composer. This little musician plays charmingly both on the piano and organ, although unable to read music, and he composes all his pieces as he plays them and never repeats. His forte is rich profound harmony. He played at the recent Toronto exhibition, amazing all and receiving rapturous applause He is bright, happy boy with long golden hair, and is very nat ural and unaffected. The little prodigy was introduced to the audience last evening by c. P Butler of the lodge. He played also last evening at the Ep- worth league entertainment given at Grace M. E. church, and next Wednes- day evening will give a free piano and organ recital at Dwight Place church. He is accompanied on his tour by his father and a younger brother. Young Master Wood has performed upon most of the great church organs of this coun- try, Toronto and London.
