LIFT YOUR SKIRTS, PLEASE"
Annoying Experience of a Young Wo-
 man and a Strange Man.

She had noticed that men would stare at her. It wasn't exactly her fault; beauty in a woman could hardly be called a fault, but the open admiration of men annoyed her, just bit. The strong wind had blown on her cheeks the hue of the red rose that is full blown and men looked after her with~a detaining expression that seemed to say: Hi. there, Miss, you have drop ped a flower." Of course she hadn't, but it seemed so natural to think she had.
 One man-and he was every inch a man and a good many inches, toO-ac- tually turned and followed her. There was no doubt that he was following her. She loosened the grip on the trail ing skirt she was holding and quick ened her pace. She turned to go into a shop on Petticoat lane when the man actually accosted her.
 T beg your pardon, madame, but would you mind lifting your skirts just a little?"
 Heavens, the man must be crazy. She turned to him and looking over, under, around and through him, but not at him, said, Sir
 Beg your pardon, but would you mind lifting your skirt just little, the fact is-''
 Officer, this man is annoying me. " said the young woman, turning to the big policeman.
 Say, you're rather dacent looking chap to be a speakin' to women you don't know" said the officer.
 She's got my hat and is carrying it away"
 What gasped the young woman; your hat! Officer, this man is simply crazy"
 NO, I'm not said the man. ''The wind blew my hat off and into your trailing skirt. Now. if you'll please raise your skirt just
 She did and out rolled the hat, but what was the use of explanations This explains, however, why one young woman in Kansas City wears short skirts.-Kansas City Star.

managing their business more econom- ically by reducing the expense account and the pressure of competition. There is no outcry in England since the gen eral effect of these industrial amalga- nations is to reduce the cost of manu- factured articles for the benefit of con- sumers. There is, however, a growing feeling of public indignation over the eXcesses and irregularities of stock promoting, and the lack of efficient safeguards for the protection of share owners. The litigation in which the lord mayor has been unpleasantly con spicuoUs enforces this moral and may compel the government to take up the subject of amending the company laws at the next session of parliament From a London Cable.

FREIGHT CARRIED BY TROLLEY

The utility of the rural trolley line as a freight road is receiving very full demonstration at Toledo. The manag- CTS of a suburban line there have de vised a trolley truck on which a loaded farm wagon can be readily placed, the axles of the wagon setting in sockets which hold it firmly in place. The farmers are using this style of trans portation when teaming is bad. Re gently, on a day when the roads were in very bad shape, one train that reach ed the city included eighty-seven sacks of clover seed and two wagon loads of basswood lumber.
 The farmers sending this shipment lived fifteen miles from Toledo and stated that, with the roads in the con dition they were then in, the seed would have made at least three ordinary wag- on loads and the lumber six ordinary wagon loads. This would have been equivalent to 270 miles travel for one driver and two horses. With the troll ley service the haulage was accomp- lished in one hour, at cost of S6 per wagon from the shipping point to the delivery point. Such advantages, es- pecially in regions where roads are usu- ally in poor conditions, will naturally give an impetus to the construction of shipping the wagons without loading or unloading at either end of the line are obvious.-Indiarapo Sentinel.

THE CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.
Wheat Rallied From Yesterday, But
Corn Was Weak

Corn Was Weak.
CHICAGO, Sept. 27.-Wheat closed $50
1-2c over Tuesday, our market getting
some encouragement from Liverpool, but
getting its best help from an increased cut
side trade. The mood here has changed as
shown by the Indifference of prices to
bear news. An official French crop re-
port received here today makes the crop
the largest one on record Paris prices
We're on little on this. New York put
the export business at the seaboard at 45
loads. The movement continues liberal
although not as heavy as last week
Corn was weak with a good deal of
liquidation. The September lost l 1-2c and
closed at the bottom. December closed
where it did last night; the May was rela-
lively firm, up Lie. The contract stock
here last night was $3.50, 600 bushels It
is estimated there will be 5000, 600 by the
end of the week, which will be the end
OF the month. The market acts as il the
September longs would get corn for all
their contracts.
Oats were steady, with the days range
within lac. Seaboard clearances were over
half a million bushels. The export move
ment Just now is the largest the country
has ever seen.
In provisions continued good export de-
mand for lard gave prices a further ad-
vance In pork and ribs most of the trading
was in the way Of changing from October to
the deferred deliveries. This market closed
firm and continues to show strong under
tone.

The stock market was something of
surprise to a great many people in its
strength yesterday. There had been a gen.
eral feeling that the rapid advance in
money rates on Tuesday might cause some
selling at the opening, and that If money
rates did not ease up heavy liquidation
would be not impossible. AS a matter of
fact there was support in almost the en-
tire list and good net advances in the ma
jority OF stocks. The street seems to have
taken a very sensible view of the situa-
tion. The bidding up of money was large
ly manipulation and it was recognized as
SUCH Otherwise the outlook is full of at
tractive features, with gold on It's way
from abroad for the first time in many
months and likely to come in large volume
with railway earnings large and inereas-
ing, and with somewhat better feeling
regarding the Transvaal situation, or
rather regarding its probable effect on
American stocks. II Will be seen that tight
money is now the only legitimate reason
why prices should not advance and that
this factor is likely TO be eliminated in the
near future. There is naturally much
gossip and of various coiors, regarding the
nature of the bank statement. The average
feeling, however, is probably more hopeful
than otherwise The only unpleasant fea.
ture in yesterdays market was its dullness,
which at times was extreme. This may be
attributed to a disinclination on the part
of both parties 10 venture very heavily
on new contracts over the holidays. Money
was bid up again yesterday to 20 per cent
during the middle of the day but the game
proved not to be profitable one, and be-
fore the close rates were as low as 3 per
cent, and the closing rate was at 6 per cent.
The most conspicuous stock on the list
was prominent on account of weakness,
while the remainder of the market was ad-
vancing. Tennessee Coal and Iron was
attacked viciously during the greater part
of the day. and at one time got as low

the high price reached. The selling of
the stock is understood not TO have been
by insiders, but by the bears. who appar-

rates to precipitate general decline AS
has been seen. the effort to produce any
general weakness was entirely without sue

the sky was cloudIess, the cold, raw wind
which prevailed was undoubtedly the
cause OF the small attendance. McFarlan
started in 10 pitch for Washington. but
was taken out at the end Of the second
E inning Magee, who was substituted, was
not much better, giving four bases on
balls and being hit freely. Willis, who
pitched for Boston, gave eight bases on
balls and hit 4 man, but after the first
inning was fairly effective. Scheibeck and
McGann did the best work for Washington,
both at the bat and the field.
Mccain made three hits and got two bases
on balls. while Scheibeck had two safe hits
TO his credit. Mercer also did good work
al the bat, making two hits and getting to
first twice on balls. O'Brien was weak at
the bat striking out three times.
For the Bostoas Sullivan, in the fifth
inning, made q home run over the right
field fence. scoring two men ahead of him.
Long followed SuIlivan's example in the
seventh by lifting the ball over the left
field fence for homer, two men preceding
him across the rubber
Washington started of like a winner
Slagle went to first on balls. McGann and
O'Brien made hits. Padden and Mercer also
got first by gift A passed ball, Stahrs
wild throw, and Longs muff Of a throw
helped matters, but a mun Of Frisbee
which allowed OBrien and Padden to score
was the most damaging occurrence OF all.
Boston made up two OF the runs, Stahl s

and hits by Frisby and Duffy In
the second Willis and Stahl went TO first on

was out. Long capturing his hot liner,
leaving two men on bases
Washington had a fine opportunity in
the fourth. when SeheIbeck started off with

double, but one run was the best they
could do That was secured on Freeman s
out, O'Brien striking out and Padden
going out al first. The visitors did lot
score again until the eighth, when Schei-
beck and McGann hit safely, were advanced

pitch, and muff by Willis at the plate.
IN the fifth Boston scored four runs,

Second Is Tie.
CHICAGO, Sept 27.-Chicago won the
first game today after brilliant struggle
between Griffith and Gray, but after the
teams had battled eight innings in the
second game, darkness fell with the score
seven each. The first game furnished one
of the greatest displays of fielding ever
seen, and the two third basemen, Bradley
and Willis, were the stars. Bradley ac-
cepted twelve chances, many of them diff
cult. without slip. Parker started to
pitch the second game for Pittsburg, but
after he had given two men bases on balls
he was taken out and Gray sent back. Nc
Cormick drove olt a home run with two
on bases and seemingly won the game. In
the second inning, after two We're out, one
Pirate singled, and Callahan gave four
bases on balls in quick succession, forcing
home two runs. Williams double did the
rest. Chicago fought back to even terms
and would have won but for Green's miser-
able base running. The scores by innings:
