What Alaska owes to Candlc.Ftsb

When the Alaskan is showed in, and
Is without light he inserts the tail
of candle-fsh into a crack in the Ia
BILE and touches a match to Its nose.
1t gives n clear three candle-power
light. The backbone IL largely formed
of phosphorus, which fully accounts
for the strength of the flame and the
heat developed. The substitute for
codliver oil retards rapid burning, as
tallow acts in an ordinary candle.
The fish is valuable as food. 1t may
also be used as substitute for cod
liver oil, which, aiding the natural
heat of the body, serves as a protection
from the severe cold. 1t is to be hoped
that scientists will discover a way by
which the skin of this fish may be
made into clothing and its backbone
sharpened into miners picks.

The Pine Bluff Graphic had q man canvassing Stuttgart for job work Thursday. but we haven't as yet learned of any work he secured. The Stuttgart people as a rule believe in supporting home industries, and es- pecially the newspapers of the town, for most of them realize the fact that the papers do vast amount of work for the town that is unremunerated and that they are always on the alert to defend the good name of the town, no matter by whom assailed. The newspaper is always on the alert to the best interest of the town, socially, morally and commercially. and if given hearty support by the home people, feels proud of the town and feels an interest in the success of each individual in it's territory. They guard with jealous care the education al and religious interests of the com munity, are quick to resent insult or injury to any of it's friends and pat rons, and 1t is nothing but right that they should receive liberal support of the people in whose midst they labor It is the home paper, not the foreign publication, that the people go to with the story of births. marriages and deaths It is the home paper that reports the comings and goings of the people of it's vicinity, and to the home paper the town has to look for the ex- plotting abroad of it's business and natural Stuttgart Free Press.

rule and reaching as much as Il point
in few stocks. The specialties were ex-
cellent today, and the movements in
them were exceedingly various and con-
hicting and influenced by individual caus-
es. The market for railroad stocks showed
a heavy tone from the opening, espe-
cially in the internationals which had the
burden of selling of foreign account to
carry. The Changers and Pacifics also
encountered obstacles to an advance.
The Atchison issues continued to be a
strong rallying point for the bull faction,
the preferred stocks rising to 433s. Fur
Their efforts were made to sustain the
railroad list by bidding up prices of the
low-prced stocks, especially those in
the Southwest The mystery surrounding
the pending disposition OF the Chicago
and Alton also impaired strength to diff
ferent railroad stocks on rumorS of con-
nection with that transaction. Thus
Kansas City, Pittsburg and Gulf, the
Lake Erie and Western stocks and Chi
cago, indianapolis and Louisville Pre-
ferred rose at times from low points.
There were unexplained advances of
23a in Southern Pacific and 8 full points
in Chicago and Northwest Preferred. In
the specialties there was prevailing
heaviness on one hand in Sugar, Man
haitian, Federal Steel and Peoples Gas,
while on the other hand Tobacco, Met
ropolitan Street Railway and the paper
stocks showed marked strength. The
Federal Steel stocks have been dealt in
heretofore as deliverable when issued, a
transaction which did not call for cash.
The certificates are now being issued
and the resulting requirements for funds
is assigned as the reason for the weak
ness of these stocks. Other iron and
steel stocks were heavy in sympathy.
The presence in the city of leading
street railway magnates was the cause
of the strength in Metropolitan Street
Railway. The hardening tendency of
the money market was reflected in the
growing heaviness of bonds, the market
for which continued very active. Total
