SMALL BOOM IN SPIRITS.
THE DOWNWARD TENDENCY
CHECKED FOR ONE DAY.
25A BRYAN STREET,

Action of n Jacksonville House in
Buying to Fill Contracts Kept the
Market at 44-TOtaI Sales Said to
Have Been Nearly 1000 Casks-No
Receipts and No Sales at Cotton
Exchange Iesterday-Deaier in
Builders Supplies Pleased With
Outlook for Resumption of Build
ing Operations.
Business was rather quiet yesterday in
the local markets, with the exception OF
the naval stores people, who had wind
fall in the opera lions OF Jacksonville
house, which needed about 1850 casks OF
spirits to fill contracts which it had sold
in this market.
The spirits market had open5d nominal
ly firm 1872 but the movements of the
Jacksonville concern rapidly brought the
price to "A cents, the figure of the day
before. AT this figure sales of 800 casks
were reported at the closing. though it is
understood that fully as many more were
sold which were not reported. This al
forded the factors some relief for their
accumulated stocks, which were baco ming
too large to be comfortable.
With no prospect of any further wind
fall of this sort for to-day it is feare
that turpentine will resume the downward
tendency which has marked il for the last
two weeks.
The rosin situation is satisfactory with
prices firm and small stocks in the hands
of the factors.
Nothing doing accurately describes the
state of affairs at the Cotton Exchange
yesterday. There were no receipts and
no sales. On the strength of renewed in
terest in New York, due 10 Liverpool ad-
vices, the local quotations were advance1

The dealers in builders supplies report
a very good outlook for their business this
summer The lull in the demand for build
ing supplies, both general and local, has
ceased. and prices remain firm. with tut
slight reductions over former quotations.
The local dealers report numerous inqul-
ries and other evidences that building,
which was checked by the combination o.
high prices and the laborers' strike. Is
about to be resumed and they unite In
predicting a good summer in this line.

Up the Coin in Paper.

One of the lesser, but established

are no monkeys now to climb I'D and
take the money; they are not permit

they were they could not climb to- the

nowadays a big organ on wheels-to
pick up or to hunt for the money; that
work Is now attended to by somebody

mander that he takes an active inc
terest in the personnel of his COM
mand. The men beneath him feel
his eye upon them, and act under a
constant stimulus. A correspondent
of the Chicago Record, who went
aboard the Olympia while she touched
at Leghorn on her homeward voyage,
narrates an incident which explains
much of the efficiency of our navy.
The correspondent had ioinedAdmiral
Dewey on the after-bridge, and they
discussed the speed of the Olympia,
which had been materially reduced
by an accident to her star-board pro-
peller blades.
The correspondent asked whether
the speed was not somewhat checked
by the necessity of counteracting the
side movement of n engine by the
use Of the helm.
"Oh, I suppose So" replied the adj
miral. 'Tll just ask that signal boy,
and find out whether he has taken
any notice of the helm motion coming
through the Mediterranean since the
screw was injured"
The signal boy was on the watch
on the bridge, and the admiral had
no means of knowing whether the
youngster had been at the wheel, but
his object was to learn how attentive
the lad had been to the steering of
the ship.
ct think, sir" the boy replied to
the admiral's question, ''that we
carried a little starboard helm all the
way down the Adriatic."
"About how much ?" asked the
admiral.
Five Or six degrees, I should say,
sir"
$50 ask the chief quartermaster,"
said the admiral.
Presently the youngster came back
and said that the average starboard
helm carried while running with the
port engine only was five degrees.
"There! What do you think OF
that ?" said the admiral, triumphant
ly. "That boy is a fair specimen of
our apprentices. They keep their
eyes open and learn all about the ship
and the methods of handling her with
out being forced to do 500
There is nothing about which the
admiral is prouder than the character
and capacity of the men under him.
They oil know it, and consequently
he can always depend upon them.

Queen Wilhelmina a Fine Skater.

The young queen of Holland is not
only an excellent horseback rider but
also q fine skater. Few ladies are her
equal In the pastime. AS soon as the
gentlemen Of her encourage discover
a good skating place on the canals
which connect the palace gardens with
other spots the queen with a couple of
ladies and gentlemen skate for very
long distances. Young peasants with
their girls and fishermen with their
skates fastened to wooden shoes fly
past the royal party without the slight
est knowledge of who they are, and
hearing her sweet "Goe morgen, sa-
men!" greet the party. These skating
tour sometimes last for several hours
at q time.
