ing Issues Prominent.
New York. Jan. 25.-There was an irreg
ular opening of the stock market today, as
efforts were continued by the professional
element to bring about further reaction.
There was an increase in the buying or
ders, however, which soon led to a sharp
and general recovery. In many instances
gains extended to l and 2 per cent. Read
ing issues were prominent in the rally.
Other strong features were New York
Central, Chicago, Burlington and Quincy,
st. Paul, Pacific Mail, Tennessee Coal
Atchison, Rock Island, and some of the
speeialtes.
The activity of the speculation increased
as prices improved, and the short interest
showed considerable nervousness.
Government bonds unchanged.
Stocks at noon continued strong. The
advances over first prices extended to IA
per cent. Trading continued active.
The evening times., 1899-01-25

The stock market opened this morning
with its expected advance from the low
figures Of yesterday. In every direction
there was steady rise in prices and fair
ly good buying. though it was noticea
BILE that no large blocks of stock were
changing hands except in one or two in
stances. Up TO the noon hour it was i'm
possible to determine whether the rally
was to be a permanent affair CT only a
technical incident in the large reaction
that many are predicting. Il is certain
that there will be large investment buying
at any prices lower than the present level
and it is not in the least certain that this
will not prevent any bad slump. On the
whole the bulls feel very well over the
situation.

r. g. Jones remarks upon the flag,
have called forth the following letter.
which Mr.. Jones is rather proud Of IL
is an honest, straightforward and pa
triotic expression of opinion, and Mrs.
Jones responds to it in his usual hearty
way.
Honolulu. II. l., July 6, 1899.
Hon. p. G. Jones':
Dear Sir:-I hope you will not be Of
Tended by these~few lines but seeing
your speech in the Advertiser of July
5, | beg leave to remind you that an
American flag is an expensive luxury
to a man that has to supply family
and to pay for schooling and other nee
eSSarieS of life.
How much do you think a small flag
costs? You cannot buy one for less than
SO in Honolulu. Flags that are perhaps
not worth more than 80 cents, and !
think that when a man has 20
work for small wages for living, he
cannot afford it.
l do not think there is anyone in Ho-
nolulu, except perhaps "a few disgruntled
Royalists that do not love that grand
"Old Glory" l myself, when a small
boy. (remember l am a born Dutchman,
as you Americans term us) admired
that beautiful flag. We had at home a
tablecloth with a small American flag
in the center of it, and my only longing
was, one day, to be under its shadow.
Since my arrival in the Islands,
have worked faithfully with the mis-
sionary party God bless themD to get
good government, and later to have
our beautiful Islands annexed to that
great country you spoke about on the
4th, and now our hopes have all realiz-
ed. The flag is here, and that we do moi
all carry one on the 4th is not out OF
dsrespect for "Old Glory the Amer.
lean people, or especially you, MIR
Jones, for I guess you have more
! friends than you think. Yours truly
A DUTCHMAN, WITH AN AMERI,
/. CAN HEART. ...t n
To this Mr.. Jones makes reply:
! If "Dutchman with an American
Heart" will call on p. c. Jones, Mr.
I Jones will take great pleasure in pres
4 enting him with an American flag.

UPSET BY AN UMBRELLA.

1t Came Very Handy, but Made Three
Men Miserable.
Talking about stealing umbrellas"
said New Orleans business man. III
had whimsical experience last week.
One afternoon, when it was raining,
happened to see very good umbrella
In the hall, and-well, annexed it, or
rather established protectorate, in
tending to return it before night to the
gentleman in the adjoining office, who,
supposed of course. was the owner.
"But somehow or other I didn't, and
for several days lodged him in and
out of the building, feeling particularly
uncomfortable and guilty. Finally he
dropped in and, seeing the umbrella in
the front Office, walked off with It. I
witnessed the incident unobserved from
the rear room and naturally said moth
ing. Next day we encountered in the
elevator, and he handed me the um-
brella.
Here's your parachute, he said.
I'll have to own up that I appropriated
it yesterday, but it was raining, and
the temptation was too strong for my
morals.
II took it rather gingerly aid re-
Trained from offering any explanation.
That afternoon I set it just outside my
door and had the satisfaction of seeing
1t disappear under the arm of an archi-
tect who is a prominent member of my
church and generally regarded as
very moral man. Since then he has had
pressing business whenever I hove into
sight, and infer that he is suffering a
duplicate of the pangs recently expert
enced by myself and my neighbor. The
fellow who originally left it hasn't
turned up, so I suppose that he, too, is
member of the robber band. New
