WHY HOP SINGS PAVEMENT HAD
TO COME UP.

TO COME UP.
M Monnier, the well-known French
Aaiatic traveller, vouches for the truth
of the following story of how his friend
Hop Sing a travelled Oriental and man
of means and refinement, was on one
occasion sorely victimized. Hop Sing
lived in the Street of Roasted Corn, as
unsavory and as ill-paved street as
any in all Pekin. The local mandarin
was an intimate friend of his, and Hop
Sing availed himself Of this friendship
to press the mandarin to have the street
repaved. Certainly! AT once The
men would be at work ON 1t before Hop
Sing had returned home. A week
passed; then another visit, and so on,
until, in despair, Hop Sing determined
to have the street repaired at his own
expense, The work was satisfactorily
completed The surprise of Hop Sing
was only equalled by his indignation
when OH awaking one morning, he
found gang Of coolies upheaving the
newly tagged street. His surprise grew
when he heard from the mandarin's
own lips that the men We're there at his
orders. You see, my dear friend" said
the mandarin, Il am expecting the head
inspector round here in a few days.
Now if he were to see the beautiful
pavement you have laid down in your
street he would come to the conclusion
that there was money about, and he
would assuredly bleed every vein in my
body. This would mean my ruin.
Don't you see why your pavement real
~ must come up? 1t cost me one for
tune to secure my post. l don't want
to spend another In keeping it."-Argo-
maui.

THE STOCK MARK EFT,

An Early Strength Dissfpated by Later
Developments.
New York, Aug. 16.-Early strength
in the stock market to-day, inspired by
the favorable London attitude and the
better complexion to the Chinese situa-
ton was dissipated later on by realiza-
lions of the room traders and discus
sion of the monetary future. A rise in
call money rates of 1& per cent. gave
some color to assertions in some quar-
ters that a sitter rate would generally
rule by the depletion of the bank re-
serves through the gold exports. OPP
erations by the banks thus far this
week with the sub-treasury show a loss
Of 81, 1856 900. This showing can hardly
be remeded by the interior currency
movement and receipts of gold from
Pacific coast points, SO a heavy loss in
cash is expected to be shown in the
bank statement.
The weekly reports of the European
governmental institutions was scanned
with interest in connection with their
REIMBURSEMENT of resources from here
Less than half of the recent shipments
of upward of s17,000,0 900 was reelected in
the statement The Bank of England's
return showed an increase in reserve OF

92O The bank gained on balance to-day
on bullion transactions So, 100000. Its
official rate of discount was maintained
at per cent, but the open market rate
fell to 37s. The showing of the Bank
of France was less marked in it's prin-
cipal items than last week, gold hold
iugs increasing only $350,000 while loans
were reduced $3221,925 and circulation
shrank SO, 0O0,0 900.
As the rise in prices of stocks early
to-day was maintained with difficulty
professional traders switched over to
the short side and dropped their hold

CHALLENGE IS RECEIVED
NEW HAVEN ALDERMEN TO PA
BALL IN WATERB5 RY.
Behalf of the Aldermen of the Elm
City, Forwards the Communication to
CITY Clerk Ryan.

Waterbury, Aug. 1.-THE of1icia
challenge of the New Haven board OF
aldermen to play the waterbury alder
men a game of baseball some time in
the near future was received by City
Clerk M. J. Ryan this morning the
challenge was sent to Mr.. Ryan by
Henry e. Norris, city clerk of New
Haven, by vote of the Elm City alder
men.
The local committee appointed by the
board aof aldermen to make arrange
ments for the proposed game consists
of President Hall, City Clerk Ryan and
City Sheriff Mcdonald. A meeting OF
this committee has been called for this
evening.
The game will In all probability be
played in Waterbury, probably the lat
ter part of the month.
The communication sent to New Ha-
ven by City Clerk Ryan was in refer
ence to the action of the aldermen in
appointing Messrs. Hall, Mcdonald and
himself a committee to receive and act
upon any challenge that might emanate
from the New Haven aldermen.
The following is a copy of the letter
received from City Clerk Norris of New
Haven:
City Clerks Office,
New Haven, Conn, Aug. Is, 1900.
Municipal Baseball Tossers, Water
bury, Conn, care Michael ]. Ryan,
City Clerk:
conference.-the board of aldermen of
the city of New Haven, by vote have di-
rected me to inform their brethren OF
the city of Waterbury, that they have
received a communication, which, If
presented in the spirit of a challenge,
they very cheerfully accept. The COM
munication calls attention to the fact
that a committee has been appointed
to receive and act upon a challenge
from the municipal ball tossers of the
City of Elms, and in other words, we
are to believe that it is not the inten-
ton Of our friends in the Brass city to
attempt to learn the national game,
until such a time as we may feel dis
posed to send you a challenge and
also administer a sound thrashing.
Therefore, feeling quite confident that
one game will suffice I issue on behalf
of the baseball nine, representing the
New Haven board of aldermen, chal-
lenge to the municipal baseball tossers
of the city of Waterbury to meet their
opponents on the diamond in the city
of Waterbury on such date as may be
mutually agreed upon.
Very respectfully yours,
Henry E. Norris City Clerk,
Manager Baseball Team.

WHAT THE REV. ]. N. CLEARY
st. Charles Church, Mime apIls, says Of
Ellis History Of the United States.

WESTERN BOOK SYNDICATE,
Phoenix Building, Minneapolis.
Gentlemen: l have examined Ellis
History of United States, in six volumes,
by Edward S. Ellis, which have in my
library, with considerable care. l am
very much pleased with the work of the
distinguished historian. He seems to
have completed his task with conscien-
tious care; the arrangement of the work
is admirable and the excellent maps and
copious marginal notes greatly facilitate
the study of our country's history. l
find that all the disputed points of his
tory are treated with fairness and honesty.
The author gives due credit to all the
discoveries and explorers. He imputes
no bad or sordid motives but leaves the
student Of history to form his own con-
illusions from the facts presented.
1t is in this candid spirit that history
should be written. MIR. Ellis imparts q
wholesome lesson to all comp,lers of his
tory. sincerely hope that this admlra.
BILE work may find ready sale 1t will,
am sure, accomplish great amount Of
good in making clear to all students of
the history of our beloved country, its
glorious record. He has earned the
gratitude of all honest Americans in thus
presenting to the public an honest work
of study and scholarly research.
With becoming gratitude for the pleas
ure and profit the work has afforded me,
very truly yours, J.. NJ. CLEARY,
