LEANING TOWER OF PISA.
One Cannot Help Being Nervous In l.
 ing From Its Top.

ing From Its Top.
 In St. Nicholas, John Ward writes of "The Bell Towers of Italy" MT. Ward says of the most famous of them all:
 Pisa seems like sleeping city, as she lies so quietly and silently along the two borders of the river Arno. She fell asleep several hundred years ago, after she had struggled valiantly for her in- dependence and had won renown during the fierce contests between the Guelphs (partisans of the pope) and the Ghibel- lines (partisans of the emperor). Though Pisa has long since forgotten the days of her greatness, the world cannot for get them when it locks upon that won drcusly beautiful grS%x, sf four marble white buildings stan&1ng apart in the sacred corner-the cathedral. the bap- tistery, the campo santo Cor burial ground), and, what interests us most of all, the remarkable oampanile, so we'll known as the leaning tower" This famous tower was built isS "A. Its construction is peculiar. TN9e is in the center a hollow brick tube or cylinder; around this plain round tower the arohi- teots built eight stories of open galleries, with beautiful, slender columns of white marble supporting semioiroular arches. The general effect is one of great delioacy and lightness, a fairylike tower of wonderful grace. The summit is 179 feet from the ground. AS you all know the tower leans 13 feet out of the perpendicular and looks as if it would surely fall over at any moment, but, as the center of gravity is still within it's hasa # is eafa 2 ik were 5reuG. Inc IounuaIlons were prop ably imperfectly built at the start, for the tower began to lean before it was half finished, and we can see where at one point the builders tried to bring it back as much as possible tasthe vertical line by making the columns on the low side higher than the others. The walls. too, are strengthened with iron bars. Fancy the consternation of the archi- teots when they saw their beautiful tower leaning over and its foundations sinking in the groundl It requires very steady nerves to carry us to the top, and we find ourselves clinging to the wall when we are on the leaning side.
 This is what Charles Dickens says about the tower in his Pictures From Italy," "In the course of the ascent to the top the inclination is not very ap- parent. but at the summit it becomes

cattle companies may be estimated from she fact that the annual shipments for the past few years have been from 8 ,OOo to 6, 900 head for each of the large com- panies. The annual profits of the larger companies, after deducting the original cost of the cattle and the cost of their
 naintenance upon the ranges, are from 175. 900 to $150, 0O0-all that from the free ranges of the government, given
 Iithout taxation or any return what Fer.
 To understand the situation that has axisted up to the present time it must
 remem bered that this broad region which has been given up to the interests of the cattle growers has not been in- tersected by fence, disturbed with a blow or graced with field of grain up to a few short years ago-nothing for miles but short nutritious grass, which cured on the prairie, as clover in a stack, and served equally well for food in dead of winter as in the heat of summer.
 Forth upon this vast area every spring have been poured streams of gaunt, i'll shaped, long horned and lean ribbed southern cattle. Left to roam at will, they have thriven and waxed fat, until in two years they have become sleek and fat and comedy to the eye. During all that period they have been aE free and untrammeled as were ever the buf- falo. But at the close of the maturing period they have been rounded up, driven to railroad stock shipping pens and loaded upon the cars for a trip to market. Their places are taken by fresh importations from the south. And so, year after year, have the processes been repeated, until the profits that were known to have accrued from the busi- ness have tempted thousands of small holders of cattle to settle in this region and engage in the beef business on smaller scale.
 The presence of these smaller opera tors is the inevitable doom of the cattle kings Their vast herds are no longer allowed to roam the ranges undisturb- ed. The small ranchmen have built fences and inolosed the water holes. The prairies have been made to yield to the moving machine, and the former free grass has come to be cut and stack ed as hay, until the ranges in many places are bare of feed for the herds ni the larger companies. These conditions are responsible for the closing out of the cattle princes. There is no longer room for .th5ir thousands of beeyes. Eff teen thousand cattle, the property oI one of the larger operators, succumbef to the severity of the weather for no other reason than that the rangeT had been denuded of grass by the numerous smaller ranchmen. This was a warn- ing that the most obstinate must heed. And so the cattle companies that for.

THE MARKET ELSEWHERE.

New York, Nov. 9.-Early in the day
the general strength was manifested in
the stock market, which was due pri-
marily TO the conditions cabled from
London, which was aided by strength
in stocks. A drop of 10 points in Leath-
er, common, however, discouraged buy
ing, and the traders turned bears for
the day. The declines in the indus
trials and specialties were rather great
or, because the commitments for the
long accounts in those stocks were
larger. But there was very heavy sell
ing throughout the railroad list, and
large number of prominent stocks in
that department showed net declines
Of point or upwards. In the special
ties, the average ran between l and 2
points Tor the leading stocks.
An exception should be made of the
Iron and Steel stocks, several of which
offered good resistance to the decline.
Steel and Wire and American Hoop
were examples. Attention was mostly
wholly conferred in the money market
outlook. Shipments by the New YORK
