Slow BarceIonn-sIower Madrid.

barcelona is a great trading port,
about on a level with Marseilles. IT
has grown very much within recent
years. The Barcelonese consider them
selves a model to all Spain in the mat
ter Of industry, and in common sense.
Yet in this town-which is really a
handsome place and rich-the head
telegraph Office is IN the suburbs;
there is only one branch office in town,
and messages have to be sent from
that by hand. The post office as well
away from the port, IN a by street. If
you are there on business you VIII find,
as likely as not, that one clerk is in
attendance out of an immense staff.
He will probably be very polite, but
he will put his hand TO a pen or a
bundle of letters as if he feared they
would burn And Barcelona is mod
Ell OF smartness compared with Mad
rid One wonders what would happen
to the dawdling officials one sees at
these places if they were Transported
by some malignant fairy to St. Mar
tin's-le-Grand- Madness would prob
ably be their fate If they made a n eff
fort TO meet the call But then they
would not; the hurry and drive would
simply revolt their sense of what was
due to a gentleman.-Pan Mall Na0a-

eyes open and when they saw small

dropped they picked it up and few to
the nest.
With chirping and much fussing
about the stars and stripes were Sc

FORTIFIED GRAVEYARD.
Battery of Cannon Guards a Gem
etery In the Town of YOughaI,
Ireland.

The little town of Youghal, situated
on the estuary of the Blackwater river.
in the south of Ireland, is not now'of
much Importance norparticularlyw well
known out of Munster, but long ago
it played its part in the rebellionS of
the Geraldines, and also in the days
of Cromwell's Irish expedition. It is
noteworthy on account of the house
known as Myrtle Grove, in which Sir
Walter Raleigh resided, and which is
said to have been the scene of the
story that his new serving man was
so frightened at seeing him smoking
tobacco custom he had learned in
water over him, thinking his master
was on fire. Here, too, it is said, the
explorer first planted the potato.
Hard by Myrtle Grove is the old par
ish church which contains several OBJ
jects of antiquarian interest, but the
extraordinary addition of battery
of guns renders its churchyard unique.
The quiet, tree-shaded burying place
is bordered on two sides by the re-
mains of the old Notifications of the
town, and on these at one part tower
has been erected, and an UNCOVERED
wall which adjoins it serves as a rest
ing place for five old culverins, which
point toward the church. Their pres
ence is explained by the inscription on
a slab set into the wall behind them,
which runs as follows:
This Tower was erected,
And these guns were placed here,
By the Rev. w. p. Drew.
They defended the Town
In ancient time-just hear
What the old fellows say,
when Frenchmen landed at Montaray,
One of US made them scamper away.
(See AnnalS.)
The annals" however, do not seem
altogether to bear this story out, but
it would appear that the guns were
originally the property of Lord Castle
haven, who bcsieged Yougha1 in 1645
and placed them in battery against the
town on Montaray Point, which is at
the mouth of the harbor. on the oppo-
site side of the river to that on which
it is built.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

Trolley wheel. Not Used.

In the trolley system of Dresden the
trolley wheel is absent, contact with
the overhead wire being made by a
light, slightly bowed horizontal bar
that is pressed upward against it. 1t
takes six to eight weeks to wear out
one of these bars, which are made of
aluminium. Experience in this and
other German cities is said to have
demonstrated the superiority of this
device to the one ordinarily in use.

Experiments seem to show that 3
large ocean steamer going at 10 knots
an hour will move over a distance of
two miles after its engines are stopped
and reversed, and no authority will
give less than a mile or a mile and
half. as the required space to stop its
progress The violent collisions in
some eases during fogs may thus be ac-
counted for.

Stocks and bonds.

New York, Jan. S.-There was profit
taking on quite q large scale in the stock
in prices in the early trading; That there
should be taking of quick profits after such
a sharp rise as that of the last two days

dealers who bought stocks late on Wednes-
day and Thursday sold their holdings of the
most active and strongest issues. The real

reacted more than a point from the high
level of the morning. There was evidence
of continued realizing also in the local trac-

eral strength of the market Is being avail

preston in the day. Notwithstanding these
reactionary tendencies the general tone Of
the speculation continued strong and con-
fident. Business was on a large scale and
embraced a large number of different is
sues. some of the usually inactive stocks
being brought into prominence by sharp
advances. The pressure of large sums of
newly disbursed money seeking reinvest-
ment was reflected in the demand for high
grade investment stocks, the Vanderbilts
advancing on an average a point or more.
Lake Shore was helped by the report that
some $50, 4i5,CW of that company's old high
interest-bearing bonds had already been
exchanged for the new refunding 3ISs with
a consequent saving in annual interest

considerably from the best and in some
cases wiped out earlier gains. This caused

Grain GIut-Galveston.

Galveston, Tex, Jan. s.-The grain situation here
Is serious. There are 400 grain-laden cars upon the
wharves and 1000 more In the yards. Elevators A
and B are filled. There were seventy steamers in
port on November !, but there are only nine here
to-day, and nearly all Of them are loaded. Vessels
which are to take 500, 900 bushels are expected to
arrive here by next Monday. This is the season OF
fogs upon the Gulf. The weather has been bad for
some time and that probably causes the detention
of vessels now overdue. J. Remershoners Sons eased
the situation somewhat by announcing that their
elevator. which has been undergoing repairs and en-
largement. would open to-day. This elevator has
movement of cotton and the stream Of grain coming
this way is steady and large. II the weather clears
and vessels begin coming In the situation will prob
ably be relieved. There are seventy-fve steamers
chartered for this month. but until boats arrive in
large numbers the pressure Will continue.
