One of the most embarrassing things
connected with a modern battlefield is
the shrapnel shells which throw all
sorts of strange substances about.
There is not so much danger in their
fire as in that of modern musketry, but
the sound of the shrapnel is much
more disconcerting and demoralizing;
its wild "whee- ee-wew-wew-wew" sug-
gests missiles filling all the air and
coming from all directions. A sur
geon relates that he was standing in
front of hospital tent, near where
two wounded colored troopers were
lying, he heard one say, as the shrap
mel wound past: II don't care for dem
Mauser bullets, for when you hear of
EN- you know it's done gone past But

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.

BY Associated Press.
New York, Feb. 21-As a result of to-
days trading on the Stock exchange the
standard shares were generally off frac-
uonally while the Coalers improved ma
terially, the advance i'm Jersey Central
being about four points, while the change
IN the industrials are mixed. The spe-
CialtlcS ana the industrials showed pro-
nOunCed strength in the early dealings,
then became feversh with alternate dis
pays OF weakness and strength. The con-
unontal and London market showed some
tlrmness after the early dealings, partly
Influenced by the Bank of Germany's re-
duction in It's rate of discount Commits
SION house buying was large i'm the early
ueannES but excepting the industrials,
changes were not notable. Consolidated
GaS Metropolitan Street railway and
General Electric showed strength at times
put tell off with the rest of the market
during the profit taking period in the
afternoon. The strength of the anthra-
Clle coalerS was attributable TO eXpec-
tatlon in some quarters of an announce
mcnt presently of a combination among
the companies for restricting the produC-
ton and maintenance. The large specula-
tion in the industrias was in way re-
sponsble on this, the eve of a holiday
for some profit taking during which most
railways fell off considerably with a sub
sequent slight recovery i'm some shares
but the market closed rather heavy To-
tai sales were 9i11D shares The de-
mand for the railway mortgages was less
urgent today but prices in the main
showed considerable frmness Total sales
SgoOo0. United States 3s advanced \
in the bid price.
