OVER POLITICS
Two Men Have a Lively Fight Monday
Afternoon.

While the election is over and conse-
quently discussion, either friendly or
angry, have largely subsided, still the
results of the feeling which is always
engendered by campaign and result
ing victory are still noticeable.
Yesterday afternoon, two men
'"Wess" May and Red" Fry, became
involved in political discussion
which rapidly developed into a quarrel
and finally fight. Fry was punished
quite severely by May. Officer Roney
tame along as the fight had assumed
serious proportions and took Fry to
the city prison, where he will remain
until interviewed by the Mayor.
According to the testimony of the
bystanders, Frye was the aggressor in
the quarrel and richly deserved the
he received.

OVER HIS FOOT
4 Heavily Loaded Wagon Passes But no
PerceptibIe Damage Was Done.

Clarence Perkins had his foot badly
bruised yesterday afternoon. He was
helping to load wagon for Thornley,
Bros. near the Pennsylvania depot and
in some manner accidentally got his
foot under one of the wagon wheels as
the horses started. The heavily laden
wagon passed over the foot, but
strange to relate, when medical eX-
animation of the injured member was
made it was found that no bones were
broken, and that aside from painful
bruises no injury of any moment was
done to the member.

being put forward by Mr. Fred Berger,

BIC RISE
In the Prices Of Stocks on The New York
Exchange.

By Associated Press.
New York, Nov. mo such excited
demand for stocks has been witnessed
on the New York Exchange since the
boom days of the flotation of sureties
of the new industrial combinations in
the spring of 1899 as that of today and
all departments of the Stock Exchange
were kept at fever heat Of animation
and activity.
In the opening dealings there chang
ed hands instantaneously with the
sounding of the gong no less than 49,
600 shares of Union Pacific, 5000 shares
of Atchison, 6000 shares of Southern
Pacific and American Steel and Wire
and several thousand shares each of a
number of other stocks. The same
stock sold at the same time at prices
11R points apart, and it is believed that
the records of a number of transac-
tions were lost entirely in the fever of
excitement of trading. A very large
business in Americans had been done
in the London market before the stock
market opened in New York. Com
mission houses kept their offices open
all night and took orders which were
executed in London as early as a. IN.
New York time. Foreign arbitrage
brokers in New York estimated that as
a result of New York buying in Lon
don and London selling in New York
no less than 100000 shares of various
stocks changed hands from foreign to
American owners.

Just Be Glad
oh, heart of mine, we shouldn't
Worry so.
What we've missed of calm we couldn't
have,
You know.
What we've met of stormy pain
And of sorrows driving rain,
We can better bear again,
If it blow
We have erred in that dark hour
We have known
When the tears fell with the shower
All alone.
Were not shine and shower hlent
AS the gracious Master meant?
Let US temper our content
With His own
For we know not every morrow
Can be sad:
So forgetting all the sorrow
We have had,
Let us fold away our fears,
And put by our foolish tears,
And through all the coming years
Just be glad.

will be obtained as late as possible,
as experience has proved that the
later the birds are turned out the
less apt they are to move from the
localities where they have been
liberated. Western birds will be
purchased, because they have been
found to be harder and to breed
more freely than birds obtained
from the South.
The birds will cost S. 90 a dozen,

must be in lots of three dozen each,

Birds will be delivered in the
