OFFICE OF THE HERALD,

IOS ANCiElIEc, NOV. -, Aooo'
Occurrences are now chroniuled as ordin-
ary, everyday matters that far exceed in
wonder anything in the old legends OF magic
This week citizen of California talked
from his residence at Santa Cruz to friend
at Boise City, Idaho-2l00 miles Between
the two places stretches a copper wire 436
pounds to the mile, and over this are cor
rectly carried all the tones OF the human
voice, inaudible 20 feet away from the trans
mitter. And there is the expectation this
week in Southern California of successfully
transmitting electric energy 30 miles. Prob
ably these things in the sunset years OF the
century are but iorcshadowings OF greater
advances and achievements in the coming
years.
Phrophesying the fruition of what is
above chronicled as an accomplished fact, a
telephone man recently wrote:
"a little while hence, it will be possible for
II man in Salt Lake, OF Boise, or Helena, to
talk with another man, as though face to
face, in San Diego, Cal. The knowledge of
that fact kindles hope that by and by a
line will cross that other divide, which lies
in darkness under the shadow of the val
ley. which we call Death, and that far
sound voice will come to tell us of the be-
yond."
The suggestion opens up new and inter
esting field of scientific conjecture regarding
question Of choice of future abode. that has
ngitated the mind of man since the begin
ming, and is of overshadowing interest, even
to those who have friends in both places.

TO TEACH GIRLS AaR1cu1rURl
Countess of Warwick Has Founded an
Institute for the PURPOSE

The beautiful Countess Of Warwick is
at last turning her attention to serious
things. The countess, then Lady Brooke,
some years ago earned the title of "Bab-
bling Brooke" society suspecting her OF
having told of the gambling scandal at
Tranby Croft, in which the Prince of Wales
was concerned and which was the ruin Of a
better man, Sir William Gordon Cumming.
The countess is now serious. She has es-
tablished at Reading, large town on the
Thames above Lcndon, new institution
for teaching young women the practical
arts of dairying, poultry raising and horti-
culture. Over her own signature the coun-
tess writes for the press the following ac-
count of her enterprise:
''That certain, though moderate, means
of livelihood can be obtained in the lighter
branches of agriculture, such as dairying,
the growing, packing and marketing of flow
ers and fruit, the cultivation of tomatoes
and mushrooms, and the keeping of bees
and poultry, has been demonstrated again
and again. 1t is with the object of offering
increased facilities for young women to OBJ
tain this most necessary training that /
have decided to found a hostel in connection
with Reading college. Here women over
the age of l6 will be enabled to obtain
and systematic teaching, theoret-
ical and practical, in all the lighter branches
of agriculture. iri
'In the foundation of this hotel have
had in view the development Of the second
section of my agricultural scheme, viz, the
formation of settlements of women in diff
ferent parts of the country for the cultiva-
ton Of the land, thus enabling hem to add
to their incomes by the sale of fruit, flow
ers, vegetables, poultry, eggs and honey,
the produce Of their gardens and poultry
runs. The course of training will extend
over two years, though arrangements will
be made for short courses on special sub
jects. The hostel, before all things, aims
at being practical, The theoretical and
practical work will be carried on side by
side. In agriculture there will be work
and practice on experimental stations and
farms. The dairy work will be conducted
by the British Dairy Institute, Reading.
Here the instruction will include the maxi
ing of milk and cream, the making, pack
ing, preserving and marketing of butter,
the making of hard and soft cheese, and
instructions in the by-products of the dairy.
The cultivation of bush fruits and orchard
trees will be carried on. In bee keeping
demonstrations will be made by experts.
and in entomology visits will be made by the
students to museums at Oxford and Lon
don for the stuffed specimens. New York

Cincinnati as an Iron Market

Cincinnati" says the American Manu-
facturer, sis the center of the trade in south
ern iron. According to statistics compiled
by the Cincinnati chamber OF commerce, the
total receipts of pig iron at Cincinnati and
sales for direct shipment in 1897 amounted
to ,445, 400 tons, as against ], ,237 600 tons in
1896. There was also an important increase
in the movement of manufactured iron and
steel, as compared with the preceding year,
when it was largely reduced in comparison
with 1895. Receipts at Cincinnati in 1897
reached total Of l77,3OO tons, compared
with $4,000 in 1896, and an annual average
for the ten years preceding 1897 of $4,000
tons. The estimated value of receipts in
1897 was S7,09l 900, as against $5Osl 900 in
1895 and $685., 900 in 1895. Shipments for
the year aggregated l3s, 800 tons. The move
ment of nails at Cincinnati has more strong
ly fiuctuated since 1893 than that of almost
any other product. Receipts fell steadily
from 5l1 900 kegs in 1893 to 800, 900 in 1895.
but rose against in 1897 to 5ll,OOO"

Express Companies and the Tax

There is nothing in the war revenue act to
prohibit express companies from requiring
shippers to pay the stamp tax imposed by
the act This is the gist of the decision rem
dered by Judge Lacorhbe in the United
States circuit court at New York this week.
Ihe Judge expedited his decision so as to
permit OF the cases being rapidly advanced
to the circuit court of appeals and ultimate
iy to the supreme court of the L nited States.
lie said that, as between individual citizens,
whether they be individuals, express com
panes, common carriers, or what not, there
was right to decree who should bear the
burden of the service rendered and the ex-
pensc of the rendition OF that service There
was, he said, no express language in the act
prohibiting the carrie. from requiring the
shipper to pay the increase of expense OF
performing the act of transportation, which
the af1ixing of the stamp imposes upon the
carrier, and, believing that restriction OF the
right to contract should not be spelled out
in any uncertain language, he felt CON
strained to hold that the act had not pro-
hibited carriers from requiring persons ten
dering goods for transportation to pay to
the carrier the increased cost Of the SER
vice. r

Activity In the Bond Market

Further exhibitions of strength and activ-
ity in the bond market have been among the
most interesting developments connected
with the revived interest in Wall-street &C.
curities which has made its appearance this
week, says the latest issue of Bradstrcets S.
New high records as to prices are being con-
stantly made in the bond list, and in no
class of such values is this more marked
than in the bonds of reorganized railroads,
like the Northern Pacific, Union Pacific or
Atchison systems. The ability which the
two former properties have shown to earn
and pay dividends upon their new preferred
stocks, together with surpluses applicable
to dividends upon their common shares,
gives foundation for the development of
confidence on the part of investors in the
per cent bonds into which the bulk OF their
former bonded debts were converted, and
encourages q rapid absorption of such securi-
ties by permanent holders, with corre-
spending enhancement of their market value.
At the same time other portions of the rail
road bond list share to greater or less
extent in the effects of such demand for
securities. It must also be admitted that
speculative tendencies have not been alto
gether absent from the bond market. On
the contrary, they show their effect in con-
neetion with the large dealings in and ad-
vancing quotations for many different bond
issues of lower grade or even uncertain
quality.

ON CHANGE
Conditions as Shown by Transactions
on Wall Street

NEW YORK, Nov. 21.-The upward
movement of prices In the stock market
was at full tide today when the afternoon
special editions brought the Paris bulletin
to the Associated Press announcing that
the president of the Spanish peace commits
sion had declined TO proceed with the nego-
tiations after the presentation of the
United States commissioners final terms.
The professional room traders turned SELL
ers Immediately and the large buying or
ders which were being executed all around
the room were apparently being with
drawn. Prices melted away quite rapidly
in this condition of affairs, declines reach
porting orders were then placed In many
of the leading stocks and the decline was
checked. There was no apparent disposi-
ton to continue the buying movement
hour the market fell into almost entire
neglect. This condition of affairs invited
renewed short selling and the drift was
slowly downward to the close. The result
is that many stocks which were hot con-
spicuously strong in the early dealings.
closed lower than on Saturday, while the
notable advances In the leaders are much
reduced. Atchison preferred easily con-
tinued Its leadership in the railroad list
and 1t made its way through a flood of
offerings up 2s points to 471s before the
Paris news checked the advance. Peoples
Gas reflected also a very heavy demand
and rose at one time 2A, but saved less
than point of that gain. The early move
ment, of the market, was confined very
the recently awakened southwesterns halt
ing somewhat. Northwestern was an ex-
ception In the granger group and gained
2A points, and its subsidiary company st
Paul and Omaha, rose nearly two points
The Baltimore and Ohio issues also showed
very marked strength. Early In the after
noon Pennsylvania sprang Into activity,
and made a notable advance of 2h points,
supplemented closely by Pittsburg Gin
cinnati, Chicago and st. Louis spreferredl
This gave renewed tone to the whole mar
ket and led to. the strongest upward move
ment of the day, the level of prices being
quite generally lifted near a point over
Saturday. The story of the reaction is told
above. Uneasiness over the money situa-
ton in Berlin and the approaching maturi-
ty of large obligations there had apparent
ly subsidized. The northwestern railroad
stocks were relieved from pressure and the
threatened rupture between Northern Pa
ciflc and Oregon Navigation fell into the
background. ~. 80
There was very large and we'll dlstrib-

advances in prices resulted which were
