GREAT ACTIVITY
In Stocks, and Prices Have Taken a Strong
Upward Turn.
By Associated Press.

New York, Oct. 22.-Todays fur
iously active buoyant speculation
was brought up with sharp turn in
the final hours by furry in the rate
for call money, which carried it up
five per cent. This was accepted as an
admonition that speculation is over
running the newly acquired reservoirs
of the money market, and very heavy
selling to realize profits Immediately
set in. In some of the stocks most af-
fected by the late selling, earlier gains
were entirely wiped out and an aver
age level was carried down consider
ably below the best settled tone, but
the closing was on whole easy, with
the buoyant snap apparently taken out
of the market Notwithstanding this
late set back there were some striking
upward movements of prices, espec-
tally in the steel group, and the larg-
est days business in stocks since the
earlier part of the year was transacted,
at a level of prices we'll above those of
Saturday. Spectators reveled in the
revivifying streams of gold pouring in
to the New York money market from
many quarters of the world There
was greatly increased activity in bonds
as well as in stocks, and prices ad-
vanced very generally.
The total shares traded in numbered
S72,S26.

HE FOUND THE NICKEL.
The DESTINATIONS Young Swell Was
Hardly IA Match for the street
Car Conductor.

The presence of half dozen unusual
ly pretty young women may have had
something to do with the beginning of
the incident. If so, the fact that they
were there at the close was anything
but pleasant to one of the principal
actors, says the Philadelphia Inquirer.
1t occurred on an Eleventh street car
an afternoon or two ago. AT corner
not many squares from Market street
stylishly dressed young man clam
bered aboard and took a seat not far
from the Saunterer. His manner indi-
Gated that he was pretty well satis-
fed with himself and that he didn't
rate the rest of mankind as being in
the same elevated class. Settling him
self back comfortably he threw one
knee over the other and started to ogle
the aforementioned unusually pretty
young women.
Just about this time the conductor
came along on fare-collecting trip.
Ilalting opposite the self-satisfied
young man he extended his hand.
Fare, please" he said.
The seif-satisfied young man showed
down into his trousers pocket and
hauled out small bunch of bills. Peel
ing off one he handed it to the con-
Guctor ostentatiously. The conductor
examined it coolly.
Il can't change this" he said.
Haven't you anything smaller?"
Nope" replied the young man in a
loud voice. "I'm out of everything but
hundred-dollar bills to-day Can let
you take your choice of four or five
Of them, though"
/ With a grin in the direction of the
/ unusually pretty young women he
pulled out the bunch of bills again
and displayed four more hundreds. "
| The conductor looked the self-satisfied
young man over meditatively. Then
he ambled back to the rear end of the
car with the hundreddollar bill in his
hand. A squage further up the street
he came back.
"Here-hold your hat" he exclaimed
to the self-satisfied young man, at the
same time drawing his hand from his
coat pocket and extending it filled to
the full with nicltels, dimes and quar-,
ters. 81 can give you $1s.95 now. The
other $s1 I'll get for you when we
reach the car barn at the end of the
run"
The self-satisfied young man turned
Is red in the face as though he were
en- the verge of an apoplectic stroke
Reaching out he grabbed the hundred
dollar bill the conductor still held il
his other hand and pushed it savagely
down into his vest pocket.
Il don't need your change" he ejac
u,ated savagely. I've found five cent!
] didn't know i had"
Then he handed over five pennies
which the conductor rang up with
chuclle of satisfaction he made no eff
fort to conceal. The "bling" of the far,
register bell was echoed by peal O.
laughter from the lips of half doze1
unusually pretty young women, tn,
self-satisfied young mans grin took OF
n sickly hue apd the car rolled mer
rily on.

The butterfly invariably goes to
sleep head downward. 1t folds and
contracts it's wings to the utmost.
The effect is to reduce it's size and
shape to narrow ridge, hardly dis
tinguishable in shape and color from
the seed heads on thousands of other
stems around. The butterfly also
sleeps on the top of the stem. In the
morning, when the sunbeams warm
them, all these greypied sleepers on
the grass tops open their wings, and
the colorless bennets are starred with
thousand living flowers of purest
azure.-Chicago Chronicle.

"TEN TON DOOR"

Manager Seipel's attraction at the
Auditorium last evening was witnessed
by a good house which was delighted
with the good acting of Mr.. Chester
DeVOnde and company in the military
drama, Ten Ton Door," The play is
one of unusual interest as it pro-
crosses and not a few thrilling eli
makes are reached, especially in the
third and fourth acts, when the actors
fairly take the audience by storm. Be-
sides the excellent acting of the comp
any, they carry a large amount Of
