A dividend of / per cent was today de-
clared on Southern Railway preferred pay
able in October. This puts the stock on
per cent basis for the first time since the
organization OF the system. The stock
was buoyant this morning, advancing near
ly a point. Louisville was again one of
the leaders on heavy investment and spec
ulatiye buying. 1t went TO 81, the highest
price yet attained this year and since 1892.

This mornings stock market was
buoyant one, with advances in the railway
list generally and excellent gains amount
ing 10 nearly point on the average on
the grangers. The spurt occurred large
~ in the first half hour, and after that
there were slight recessions. The indus
trials were generally inactive, with no
advances OF Importance and some slight
declines. The promise OF the early busl-
ness was good, and there We're many u.at
looked for a continuance OF the strength
in the afternoon. London was buyer, as
il was yesterday, on account OF the failure
Of the Bank of England TO increase Its DIS

OF a concert of the large interests men
toned in this column yesterday was heard
in the Street again this morning, ana TINS,
with a general feeling that the money
situation exhibits no menace, and that the
bank statement is likely 10 be good one
tomorrow, induced much bulllshness OF
sentiment. The season is approaching
when. Ii there is TO be strong upward
movement this year, il should begin TO
manifest itself. General business condi-
tions are, as they have been for several
months. well-nigh perfect, with immense
prosperity on the railways and in the iron
and steel trade, big crops in prospect,
and heavily increasing exports and I'M
ports.

Northern Pacific, common, was one of
the buoyant railway stocks, advancing
point or more during the first hour. Cos
sip is most bullish regarding this stock on
account of the rumors that the line has
been operating during the past year on
IS per cent or a tTife more. 1t is said
that there will be at least 3 per cent for
the common stock as result. The Union
Pacific issues are also the subject of much
favorable comment

The grangers were undoubtedly the lead
ers of the upward movement. Burlington
was the most buoyant of the, group, sell
ing "ex" dividend l L. per cent, and
quickly regaining the entire dividend. ST.
Paul went to 133 Ia and Atchison, pre-
ferred, to Go rs early in the day. Rock
Island was something of a laggard, but it
advanced fractionally. This strength of
the grangers is looked upon with much
favor by the bulls who realize that ii is
a very difficult matter TO make booming
market without the help of this group, to
which so many look for indications of
strength.

Jacob Lift brings his great production
or Sporting Life" to McVicker's Thea
Ter Feb. ID for protracted run. This
famous melodrama has been running all
winter ut tae Academy of Music in New
York to record-brcaking attendance. 1t
mas been acknowledged to be the great
est production OF a play ever attempted
In America. even excelling the much dis
cussed "Cyrano de Bergerac" Of Mans
held in point of lavish Scenic beauty and
size and quality of cast. Over two hun.
dred people are used during the course OF
the play and of these fifty are speaking
roles, for which Mr. Lift has engaged the
best people to be had in this country. Rob-
ert billiard, Elta Proctor Otis, Joseph
Wheeloek, Frazer Coulter. Frank Bur-
beck, Jeanette Lowrie, Charles Gott-
hold, Patton Gibbs arc among the leading
members of this fine company. The seem
cry embraces sixteen complete sets, which
have been painted by the leading scenic
artists of America. They represent a
number OF famous places in England, no.
tably two scenes at EPSON Downs, where
the famous Derby Is run: Earl's Court,
the Hotel Cecil In London, Covent Gar
den by night and the National Sporting
Club, where some of the most noted tistic
bnttMs in the history of the squared circle
have taken place. A scene which never
fails to interest is the training stable of
the Earl OF Woodstock, the hero Of the
play. This is the home of Lady Love, the
mare whose winning of the Derby saves
the carl from ruin and bankruptcy. 1t
took six cars to move this great produc-
ton from New York to Philadelphia last
week, and it will come west on n special
train of ten cars. The engagement Is
sure to mark historic event in the annals
of Chicago's playhouses.

Delegates representing number Of
neighboring farmers In Clay County,
Minnesota. who visited the Edmonton
district of Western Canada last sum-
mer are evidently very well satisfied
with the result of their trip. They think
so well of the country that In addition
to the privilege of obtaining a free
homestead of 100 acres of land they
have also purchased land. In a recent
interview ON the subject Messrs. g. E..
and A. Hughes of Barnesville, Clay Co.,
say:
1--WE are well pleased with Western
Canada. 1t Is far ahead OF what we ex-
pected. We find the climate to be
warmer than we expected. AS for the
crops we have never seen anything that
can compete with them. Wehave lived
in Minnesota and have farmed some OF
what they count the best lands in the
Red River Valley for ten years and
have done very well in that part of the
country, and have farms there at pres
ent free of all encumbrance, but be-
lieve that this country (Western Can
ada Is so much better that we have
bought from the Canadian Pacific Rail-
way Company one section OF land
northeast of Edmonton in the Beaver
Hill district. We have travelled through
that part of the country and have seen
the grain in the granaries and the
amount OF land that 1t was taken off
and find that they have grown as much
as fifty bushels and over to the acre,
and they say that this has not been
good year, and very little, IL any, grain
has been touched by the frost. Hay
seems to be plentiful, and IL you wish
to put up log buildings you can get the
logs within few miles. Coal can be
had at the mines for 20 cents per ton,
or you can dig 1t yourself. Nearly all
kinds Of garden truck can be grown in
abundance. We find everything that
can be grown In good demand. The
farmers tell us that they can get four
and a half live weight per hundred for
hogs, and for three-year-old steers from
fifty to sixty dollars per head. providing
they are good. We will move into that
part of the country next summer All
the people in that part of the country
seem satisfied, and we do not see any
reason why they should not be so.'
The Messrs. Hughes also stated that
they would be very glad to afford any
one desiring particulars about the coun-
try they had visited the fullest infor.
nation, on receiving inquiries at
Barnesville, Clay County. before the lst
OF June next, when. 1t Is UNDERSTOOD
they propose to return to the Edmonton
district.
