New York, Oct. 26.--The stock mar
ket underwent many mutations today
and on the whole came through the
days ordeal very we'll. The average
level of prices was higher. The mar
ket was very irregular, carrying prices
to well below last nights level. The
extreme range was from 1 to over 2
points, but the final rally reduced the
net changes in narly all cases to very
small fractions. The final rally show

QUEER Cu:T0NS
That Prevailed In ya Citaa Time - Ilu,e3
fer Funerals.

Diving into the old records of one of
the most charming cities of our com
monwealth, Northampton, we find
much of deep interest as revealing
customs and habits of olden times,
says the sprir gfell, Mass, "Republi-
can" No fire was found in "the
meeting house in olden time, and
comparatively recently foot stoves
We're carried to church, as were tallow
candles to the evening meetings.
In 1877 the important vital question at
a legal town meeting was Shall men
and their wives be seated together in
pews?" and the vote was an emphatic
"No!"
In 174t, ahor; the beginning of
Jonathan Edwards trouble IN the par
ish, it was voted not "to pay the
charge Of bringing his daughter from
Brookfield." In 1873 this appears in
the town records Taking into con-
sideration the difficulty Mr.. Edwards
hath lalcred under this year, and
some tine past with respect to his fire.
wood, tire town voted that those per-
sons who have rot this year brought
him a load of wood might have liberty
between this time and next Tuesday
night to brig each one his load Of
wood" If there was not a sufficiency
of wood by that time the town then
voted, the Se'ertmen shall see that the
deficiency should be met at the cost of
the town.
Later, in 1888, we find in TIE war
rant for own meeting this entry: ITO

business 10 decide who should take

THE PAUL GILMORE COMPANY.
At the Opera House January 1Oth-A
Great Play.

In The Dawn of Freedom Paul
Gilmore has contributed to stage lit
erature a well constructed drama,
based upon historic incidents of the
struggle of Cuba for independence and
of the armed Intervention of our own
government. 1t has some Of the most
thrilling climaxes which the modern
stage can show, notably that which i'm
mediately precedes the fall of the final
curtain, in which a small party of Gu
bans defending a block house at Santl-
ago against a large detachment Of
Spanish troops, watches with rapture
the destruction of Cervera's fleet out
side the harbor, and is rescued almost
at Its last extremity by the combined
forces of Cuba and the United States.
The play abounds in situations only
less exciting than this, which invar-
iably set audiences wild with patriotic
ardor.
Mr.. Nicholson sustains the role of
Antonio Lopez, a young Cuban-Ameri-
can and he is supported by the same
company which, with him, won laurels
in THE Dawn OF Freedom" in New
York city. The engagement at the OPP
era House is for one night only, next
Wednesday evening.

porous surface it was decided to put the
gravel on before spring, so as to get
the streets in the best shape in the

VERY MUCH PLEASED.
The Republicans Illustrated Edition
Complimented in the East.

Mr.. w. H. Frazee, proprietor of the
Leader is n of the enterprising bust
ness men who appreciated the value Of
The Republicans Illustrated edition
and sent out a large number to friends,
acquaintance and firms with whom he
is doing business in the east, and that
these copies as we'll as others sent out
are having a good effect is show by the
following acknowledgment received by
Mr.. Frazee from Grouse & Brandegee,
one of the largest makers of fine cloth
ing in the east:
Utica, N. Y. Jan. 5, 1900.
Mr.. w. Fl. Frazee,
Laramie, Wyo.
Dear Sir: We are very much pleased
to receive the illustrated edition Of The
Laramie Republican" Upon opening,
it presented such a handsome appear
ance hat we thought it was an art
journal. 1t gives us some idea Of the
beauties of the surrounding country,
as well as of the business interests in
Laramie.
We only hope that we may be able
some time to get out there and see the
country, and nothing would please us
better than to take that fishing trip
described on page 10.
With our best wishes, We are,
Yours very truly,
CRAUSE G. BRANDEGEE.
This is only n Of many other such
complimentary letters received by Mr..
Frazee and others who have sem copies
to friends in the east. People Of the
east can scarcely appreciate the beau
ty OF the country we live in and the
magnitude of the industrial interests
represented here. Many Of them re-
gard it as simply a desert, and the
views of some of the beautiful scenery
OF Albany county and cuts OF the bust
ness blocks and factories are indeed a
revelation to them.
1t is gratifying to know that the
edition is meeting with such a wide
circulation, as the benefit to the city,
county and state is bound to be great.

Mrs. Newman's Statement.

A report has been widely circulated
throughout the country that the widow
of Bishop John Z. Newman of the
Methodist Episcopal church has offer
ed to give $4,000 to the First Meth
odist Episcopal church in Omaha on
condition tie4t the remaining $4,000
needed to free the church from debt
be raised by the people and that the
church be called the Newman Memo
rial church. In private letter to n
friend Mrs. Newman has authorized 4
denial of the above report. She said
in part:
81 have never made any such offer.
Bishop Newman was very much inter-
ested in that church and gave at least
81, 1000 toward it and left in his Will
$1,000 which was to be paid as the last
Of the entire Indebtedness. l promised
to give 500 only to the ladies, which
was all l could afford. You know,
Bishop Newman was a liberal giver
during his life, and I presume this is
why he was thought to be a rich man.
Why, if were to give $4,000 for one
object 1 would have no income at all
out of my husbands estate, and what
his Drew students will do to carry on
their studies is problem"

That was a kind husband once and

That was a kind husband once and
an indulgent father. He will kneel
with them no more as once he did at
faIrily prayers-the little ones with
clasped hands looking up into the
heavens with thanksgiving for their
happy home. But now at midnight he
will drive them from their pillows and
curse them down the steps and howl
after them as, unclad, they fly down
the street in night garments under the
calm starlight. Who slew that man?
Who blasted that home? Who plunged
those children into worse than orphan
age-until the hands are blue with
cold, and the cheeks are blanched with
fear, and the brow is SCARED with
bruises, and the eyes are hollow with
grief? Who made that life a wreck
and filled eternity with the uproar of a
doomed spirit?
Oh, if 1 had some art by which l
could break the charm Of the tempter's
bowl and with mailed hand lift out the
long serpent Of eternal despair and
shake out it's coils and cast it down
and crush it to death!
Shake off the Sabbath breaker. OH,
turn your back upon these men. Shake
off the skeptic. Shake off the idler.
Shake off the pleasuriSt. You may do
this work of election in politeness, but
you may do it firmly. You are not I'M
der any circumstances to lose all the
remembrance of the fact that you are
a gentleman and must always act the
gentleman. A young man said to
Christian Quaker, "Old chap, how did
you get your money"
"Well," said the Quaker, 'T got it by
dealing in an article in which thou
mayest deal if thou wilt-civility."
Be courteous, be polite, but be firm.
Say "No" as if you meant it, If you say
"No" in a feeble way, they will keep
on with their imploration and their
temptation, and after awhile you will
stand in silence, and then you will
say after they have gone on little
longer Eyes," and then you are lost.
Oh, turn your back upon the ban
quet of sin! call you to a better feast
today. The promises of God are the
fruits. The harps of heaven are the
music. The clusters Of Eschol are
pressed into the tankards. The sons
and daughters of the Lord Almighty
are the guests, while standing at the
banquet to pour the wine and divide
the clusters and command the music
and welcome the guests is a daughter
of God, on her brow the blossoms of
paradise and in her cheek the flush Of
celestial summer. And her name is
Religion. "Her ways are ways Of
pleasantness, and all her paths are
peace"

Bury Not Your Talents.

No man who buries his talents can
live a happy life. The most unhappy
people one meets are those who have
abundance, but refuse to use it in the
way God intended. They are living
for themselves and know it is wrong
and are unspeakably miserable on that
account, but cannot bring themselves
to live otherwise. The most happy
people in the world are those who de-
vote their talents, whether great or
small, to some good use. This is an in
fallible recipe for happiness. Let any
unhappy man begin at once to do all
the good he can, in every way he can,
to as many of his fellow men as he can,
and his heart will begin at once to sing
for joy.-Christian Advocate.
