CHRISTMAS STORY.

AT 8: 80 last evening reporter for
this paper was informed that strange
haole had left two little babies and a
couple of bundles of clothing at a
Chinese coffee shop on Alakea street,
near the corner of Merchant. The init
nation was that the children had been
| deserted
| 1t was not difficult to find the place.
One child, aged perhaps three, was
munching on piece of cake. The
other, not more than two years old,
was being petted by a Chinaman, but
| was crying. They seemed lonesome,
unfortunate, frightened, little things.
Natives and Chinese about the place
| said the strange haole had brought the
children there an hour before and had
| Halked away rapidly, indicating that
| he was going down into the Kakaako
section. He could speak only few
| words of English.
Two policemen came along. The
situation puzzled them. Next the faith
er of the babes appeared. He is lit
| tie man, of quick movement The
most that could be gotten out Of him
was that he was Galician and that
| the mother of the children was dead.
He learned what was passing through
| the minds of some of the people about
| him and opened a purse and showed a
| few dollars of silver.

the little ones laughed to him.
A cab was secured and the little for

DOLE IS BLAMED.
Charged With Keeping Ballot
From the Japanese.
(Kobe, Japan, Chronicle)

1t will probably come as great dis
appointment to the Japanese that the
commission sitting at Washington to
inquire into the method of government
to be applied to Hawaii has advised
that Japanese should be excluded from
the franchise. 1t has been generally be-
lieved that the Japanese would be ad-
mitted as citizens under certain condi-
tions as to residence, and when the
Japanese Consul at Honolulu appeared
before the Commission at the time it
sat in Hawaii, we understand that he
suggested Japanese should be given a
share in the government But the views
of Mr.. Dole, the late President of the
Republic, were strongly against any
such concession being made, and SO the
Commission has apparently decided to
advise that Japanese should have no
electoral rights extended to them
When the class of Japanese resorting
to the Islands is considered, however,
it can hardly be surprising that the
Commission should arrive at such de-
ciSiOn

formed and the guests gathered in
formally to offer their best wishes.

While the guests were refreshing
themselves with ices and drinking to
the health of the happy couple in de-

the household distributed dainty boxes

Whlle the bridal couple were busy
with formal good nights, the less
formal guests made a raid on the
presents, each one bearing his choice
from the room in triumphal procession,
when the preoccupied groom was called
upon to defend his household and a1is

successfully withstood the marauders.

Puritan and Pilgrims.

The Puritans of England generally
adhered to the Esta blished church but
endeavored TO mould it to their own
views. They largely emigrated to the
Massachusetts colony.
The Pilgrims who established the
first colony in New England, and land
ed at Plymouth rock, were Independ-
ents, who had separated from the
church. They were called Separatists
or Brownists in England.

Rumors of a Settlement of the Rate
War In the Northwest the Only
Thing That Saved the Market
Above the Close of the Previous
Day.

NEW YORK. April N-Today's stock mar
l. was almost entirely without tone. The
cess of the smallest days business in the
history OF the exchange, the aggregate of all
sales footing up only $1,000 shares. Sucn
usually volatile specialties as Sugar and
Metropolitan covered range of less than
Y during the whole day. A few stocks NOV
ed quite widely on account of special causes,
but the volume Of business even with these
was small.
Canadian Pacific and the Northern Pacific
stocks moved upwards together from the same
cause-namely, rumors which prevalent
is about to be settled. Canadian Pacifc's net
gain Is 29s and Northern Pacifcs a point.
The strength of these stocks really gave tho
tone to the whole market, lifting 1t above the
small losses at the opening to the narrow
level above last nights close, which it re-
tanned to the end.
General Electric showed strength on the
showing made by its annual statement. Kan

Hawaiian Commercial recovered four points
of its recent losses, which were said to be
due to apprehension that it's stocks of sugar
in transit were liable to capture.
Arbitrage dealers sold most of the interna-
tional stocks, but bought Northern Pacific.
Their transactions, however, were Insignia
cant. The dullness in stocks is no doubt due
in part to the transfer of speculative interest
to the wheat market.
Conditions in the money market seemed to
be working to easier basis. Call loans
at the banks which hold out for per cent,
are being repaid, as money can be had for
less than that in the street and time loans
are SAID to be made at shade below per
cent, which has been firmly held for some
time. The demand for funds from the inter
Tor continued, but is not as large as earlier In
the week. The rise in exchange checked
the rate for demand sterling, holding steady
at about &.84A.

sympathy with stocks, and prices were held

Inc average price IN 1888 was $24Z per
the minimum in 1897 $12O. The number of
animals exported, however, has increased
in a most astonishing way, from 1887 in
1893 to nearly double that in 1894: more than
doubling again in 1895, nearly doubling
again in 1886, and an increase of approx
mately 60 per cent again in 1887. An in
crease of horses exported from 1857 in 1893,
market show that that 1898 will be away
ahead of 1897.
Some rather astonishing facts come to
light also when we study the imports. The
from 15,451 in 1893 to practically 1000 in
1897, with a sudden rise in 1895, as shown
in the above table. The imported horses
have also suddenly decreased in value,
having decreased from $751; in 1893, to $66
in 1897. The imported list brings out the
further suggestion that it is difficult to
understand why we should be importing
$66 horses in 1897.
The above figures are interesting in that
they demonstrate the fact that the breeders
Of horses are on the right path. The dis
continuance of breeding during the past years
of depression has caused scarcity of stock
The following from an exchange will afford
interesting reading:
A large number of horse breeders and
dealers have just held convention at Chi
cago for the purpose of organizing a nation
al association, and the discussion during the
meeting put into somewhat authoritative
form some facts in relation to the industry
which the agricultural and live stock press
have been urging upon the attention Of the
public for considerable time The last full
or nearly full crop of colts produced by the
farmers and breeders in this country was
foaled in 1894. Since then scarcely any
breeding has been done. The number foaled
during the last three years is hardly worth
considering in view of the present demand,
foreign and domestic The colt crop
of 1894 is now maturing and COM
ing on the market at a time when
both the foreign and domestic demand is
greater than it has ever been for really
good horses. How long will this crop last,
and what will renlace it in the market
when 1t is exhausted? 1t will not be the
crops of 1861, for, comparatively speak
ing, there were no colt crops during these
years. The indications now are that this
country will presently have nothing with
which to supply the large foreign demand it
has created during the past few years for
American horses, and that there will be
scarcity Of animals to supply home require
ments. The encouragement to breed and
breed well was never greater than it is
now but 1t takes so long to make good a
shortage of horses that the scarcity is likely
to make itself quite keenly felt before
the colts bred for can be matured.

MARKET SUMMARY.

The union stock yards, at South St. Paul.
present today remarkable contrast with the
condition OF things which existed a year ago.
I he activity now prevailing there is somewhat
In the nature Of new life, which comes to
a man after he has been abed with a fever.
His appetite is strong and he takes in every
thing as 1t comes along, and grows fat and
healthful on gormandizing.
But that which comes to South st. Paul at
the present time is not forced diet. The
fact is that this great gateway to the North
west is natural channel for the absorption
of the product Of this section. There is no
doubt that the union stock yards are growing
in Importance, every month. People of an
improving section of the country want a
market. They find it here. The existence
OF this market at the capital city of the safe
Is a boon which is gradually coming to be
appreciated.
Yesterday George w. Wentworth & Co.
formally opened at South st. Paul a new
industry in the way of horse market. The
midway horse market, between this city and
Minneapolis, was established a few years
ago, and the interest has developed to a
considerable extent. There Is no doubt that
these central cities of Minnesota will be able
to support two institutions Of this kind and
the one viii always be supplement to the
other. They are sufficiently remote from one
another to permit the widest compel ton and
the fields tributory to each cover a vast ex-
tent of territory.
Mr.. Wentworth, who has organized this
industry at South st. Paul. Is not an ad-
venturer along these lines, but man of ex-
perience. He recognizes the value Of a
horse when he sees it; and he is honest
enough to put a proper value upon it. He
is lieberal enough to recognize the merits
Of other establishments of the kind he pro-
poses to conduct, and will never enviously
fret over the record of sales in the market
of his rivals. He maintains the view that
there is room enough for all. This is a spirit
which, if cultivated to the full bloom, will do
much for st. Paul, and the country con-
tiguous thereto. Here is an interesting table
on the subject of the horse breeding industry
study of Bulletin No. 10 on our foreign
trade in agricultural products from 1893
to 1897 brings to light several facts which
ought to be carefully considered by farm
ers, and especially horse breeders of Min
