STRONG
Were Stocks With a Good Healthy
Undertone.

Stocks were stronger on Wednesday
with some good trading and a buoy
ant spirit seemed to pervade the atmos-
phere of Wall street
The steels led the list, both in
strength and activity, and as the fall
comes on apace there Is much gossip
to the effect that the iron trade is GO
ing to pick up again.
The fractions were firm, Brooklyn es-
pecially forging to the front as bull
factor. Sugar little more than held
its Cwn, as did also the grangers.
The hCmeward course from their
sumner vacations in Europe of ntiu-
entail men in Wall street has a senti-
mental influence for advance. Room
traders who still absorb practically all
the dealings are seeking to anticipate
the coming operations which they sup
pose these men will embark upon.
The total sales numbered 142,53l
Money on call was quoted at 11a per
cent.
The grain board was strong, both as
20 wheat and corn, likewise as to pro-
visions.

Property owners in many places, in
cluding Marietta, are complaining be-
cause they are not given any notice by
Boards of Equalization of the inten-
tion to increase the valuation placed
upon their real estate by the apprais-
ers When the appraisement Is made,
the owner is given notice of the value
at which his property has been as
sessed, but further than that he knows
nothing, unless he takes the pains to
follow up and inquire into the work of
the Board of Decennial Appraisers. As
a matter of common justice, the owner
should be given notice of any intention
on the part of the board to raise the
appraised value that has been placed
upon his property by the assessor. If
he Is cited to appear before the board,
an opportunity will be given him to
present his objection. in the event he
has one TO make, and then it cannot
be said that advantage has been taken
OF any one. BY doing this the mem
bers OF the board willsurely save them
selves from severe criticism, much OF
which, no doubt, is without iustfica-
tion. Let everybody be notified, and |
all trouble will be obyiated.

The Untrutbful Mummy.

We saw only the outec gardens and
the museum, the chief attraction OF
which is q magnificent marble sarco-
phagus decorated with bass-reliefs OF
Alexander the Great. On one side the
conqueror is represented as routing the
Persians, and on the other side there
Is lively struggle with a wild boar.
The guide book does not certify that
Alexander ever occupied the sarcopha-
gus, but the guide assured me that he
had. The collection Of statues, bronz-
es and sarcophagi Is interesting and
immensely valuable, and l would like
to copy some Of the descriptions from
the guide book, but space forbids.
One Egyptian mummy case had a
Stranger forbear" kind Of an inscrip-
ton on it. The guide furnished me
with a liberal translation. The king
on the inside Of the case, "swathed in
spicery and fine linen," had caused this
Injunction to be placed on the lid of
his sarcophagus:
do not disturb these mortal re-
mains, for there is naught within this
easement except my poor body. There
Is neither gold nor precious jewelry to
reward the covetous."
The antiquarians who unearthed the
sarcophagus did not respect this appeal.
When they examined the mummy
wrapped inside of the box they found
several pieces of gold clasped in the
right hand, which proves that an Or
iental will lie even after death.-Egyp-

Glacier Streams Of Iceland.

All the glacier streams of Iceland,

the common characteristics Of carry

and clay and of spreading out over the
lowlands In q network of anastomOs.
ing channels. Generally they emerge
from their parent Glaciers with a
pretty steep fall and gather heavy
burdens of pebbles and debris from the
moraines-so heavy, indeed. that when
the strength OF the current diminishes
the stream cannot carry it's load but
drops it. The river bed thus gets chok-
ed up, the current divides. The strong
est branches force their way through
the debris, encounter fresh obstacles.

other branches, gain accessions Of
power, once more burst through the
deposits of gravel, send off small side
arms, again diminish in volume. and
so go through unceasing struggle be-
tween the glacial torrents and the
masses of gravelly debris. giving rise
to an necessarily changing network
of interconnected channels.

A minute often suffices to cause n stop

these streams become damned up un-
til they form lakes, which overflow
and inundate many square miles of the
adjacent country. Some cut out such
deep channels through the glacier de-
bris that they do not shift their course
for many years. One of these glacier
torrents, therefore. often presents 4

In all eases where they formerly did so
the fjords have become choked with

Tho st. p.uI Linn. Into Port.

NEW YORK, Nov. 5.-The American
line steamer st. Paul limped into port
yesterday under the port engine after
having incurred the most serious expert
cAee Of her career. On Oct. 81 at S:O6 p.
m, IN latitude 46.13, longitude 4S.03, the
st. Paul struck a supposed submerged
wreck, carried away the starboard pro-
peller, causing the engines to race so
hereely that the shaft broke, and all con-
nections snapped. The starboard en-
gines were so severely wrecked that they
are useless, and it will take six months
to replace them with n new set. The
after outboard shaft tubing was carried
away. The ship is leaking considerably.
When the accident occurred. the cabin
passengers were quite excited. but they
were soon restored to quiet by the prompt
report that the steamer was In no dan

frem the northeast. with n high cross
ssa. The engineers examined the breaks
and disconnected the starboard engines,
and the st. Paul proceeded on her voy-
age under the port engine at n reduced
speed.

HIDDEN IN pErrIcoArs
t Vast Wealth Of Woman Sewn Up
In Her Clothes.

IN der ClOCueSs
Quite q sensation has recently been
caused at Jassyr In Roufnania, by the
death Of q Nine. Balsch, who has, by
her eccentricities, TOR years past, at
tracted much attention in that town.
Some years ago she was the wife Of
q Herr Veldiman, by whom she had a
daughter. After year or two of mar
ried life she divorced him and married
Herr Balsch, by whom che had a
son. Soon after the latter's birth she
left her second husband.
She then went to Paris, where she
called herself Countess Won Balsch
Toward her children she never seemed
to feel anything but the greatest ha-
tired, and when her son died she sent
the body to his father for burial. She
turned her daughter out OF her house,
and the unfortunate girl was only kept
from starvation by the kindness of rel
atives. After the death of her second
husband she returned to Roumanla,
where she lived in complete retire
ment.
In spite OF the fact that she was ex-
tremely wealthy she lived in the most
wretched manner, and was generally
reputed to be miser. A few days ago
she died. When her daughter came
to examine her belongings no trace OF
money could be found. In going
through her mothers clothing, how.
ever, she noticed that one OF the petit
coats seemed somewhat stiff, as II
heavily lined. She ripped it open and
found over 100000 notes sewed under
the lining.
This put her on the track, and all
her mothers petticoats. of which she
had an enormous number, were exam
ined. In nearly every one large sums
of money were found amounting all
together to between 100000 francs
and 100000 francs.-Fremdenbla
