though there was some resistance to the

lasts declines are possible and even prob
able. No fear is expressed by well-inform-

be important Or lasting. The outlook for

Sugar Wen off at the opening this morn
ing, but later recovered and sold point
or SO above the close of yesterday The
break in this stock is not nearly SO rapid
as many predicted. Up to the present time
it does npt deserve the title of more than
a healthy reaction. The friends OF the
trust say that the upward movement is
likely TO be resumed at any time. 1t is
stated by an authority that the stories of
a scarcity OF raw sugar are fictitious, and
that in reality the refined is the scarce
article in the market at present. Another
advance in the price of refined is spoken
of as not unlikely.

The weakness of Jersey Central and
Reading, first preferred was perhaps tbs
most notable feature Of the market Both
stocks showed important recessions in the
early dealings. There was 10 support by
insiders IA either stock and some little
selling of long stock by small holders was
induced by the strike threats of the Penn
sylyunia miners. Under the eireum-
stances the bears had little trouble in
forcing the declines. Baltimore and Ohio,
common. Pennsylvania and others of the
coal roads also felt the effect of the strike
talk. 1t is known that the friends of
these securities are particularly confident
of much higher prices in. the near future
and that none of the large blocks of stock
are being sold. The inference drawn from
this by careful observers of the market is
that the decline will not extend far in the
group. The coal situation is full Of ex-
ceIlent promise despite the troubles with
the miners.

Lawton,s Rubber Bathtub.

General Lawton made 1t q habit Of
his life to take cold water bath ev-
cry morning before breakfast, and
while campaigning he carried with him
a rubber tub. 1t made no difference
where he was, he always ordered the
tubful Of cold water to his quarters
every morning.
In following the Apaches he reached
a mountain. He knew that the In
dams had fled there, and before pursu-
ing them farther he left his rubber
tub and other tent equipments at the
base Of the mountains in charge of an
old and faithful sergeant to guard
carefully until he returned. 1t was an
old trick with that tribe of Indians
when being pursued to circle around
and return to the exact point whence
they started.
The general left the tub and started
out after the Indians. They circled
around, covering a wide territory, and
beat General Lawton back to the base
Of the mountain. When he got there,
he found that the old sergeant and his
six men had been killed and that his
tub had been carried off by the In
dams. The Apaches evidently learned,
how highly the general priced the rub
Der tub, for they placed great store by
1t after they had captured it and guard
ed 1t as closely as they did their own
lives-Louisville Courier-Journal.

A shock For CARLYLE.

Thackeray once told Sir John Millais
this amusing story of Carlyle:
He had spent a day in the reading|
room of the British museum and had!
given a great deal of trouble to one of
the officials, sending him up and down,
ladders in search Of books to satisfy
his literary tastes, and on leaving the
room he had gone up to the man and
told him that 1t might be some salts
faction to him to know that he had
obliged Thomas Carlyle. The official
hesitatingly answered him, with a
bland smile and the usual washing Of
hands In the air. that the gentleman
had the advantage Of him. but that
probably they might have met ut some
mutual friends house. He had never
heard Of Thomas Carlyle.

Memories of n Waltz.

"Did you ever try to dance with

man who had been travelling abroad.
IL did once" he continued, "and that
experience was more than enough for
me. 1t happened at hall at Musta-
pha, at the Hotel st. Georges. l asked
an Austrian countess to waltz, and
when we started / supposed we would
dance In the leisurely American fash
ion. The countess had different idea
in her head. She preferred to whirl
madly like dervish on a space that
could be covered with a parasol, and

"Finally, when 1t seemed to me that
we were performing our antics on the
ceiling with our heads hanging down.
l could stand 1t no longer and, gasp
ing for breath, suggested that we sit
down. I saw two chairs galloping
around the room and prepared to catch
them on the next lap. We steered for
them, clinging helplessly to the ath-
letic lady, and then we sank down. l
sat dazed and almost insensible until I
was aroused by the countess saying:
"'Excuse me, but we are sitting on
the same chair "-Detroit Free Press.

Our First Postal Rates,

The first law of congress fixing rates
of postage went into effect on June 1,
1902, with rates as follows:
Not exceeding 80 miles, cents.
Over 80 and not exceeding 60 miles,
8 cents.
Over 60 and not exceeding 100 miles,
10 cents.
Over 100 and not exceeding $50
miles, 1919 cents.
Over $50 and not exceeding 200
miles. 10 cents.
Over 200 and not exceeding 250
miles, II cents.
Over $50 and not exceeding $50
miles, 20 cents.
Over $50 and not exceeding $50
miles, % cents.
Over 400 miles, % cents.
1t would seem that postmasters Of
that day must have been greatly per-
picked in adjusting the rates on each
letter under such diversified schedule
as the above. The weight limit was
one ounce (single), but single letter
was a single sheet, two sheets double
three sheets triple, four sheets quad
ripple letter, even if the whole four did
not exceed an ounce. 3. II -

WATER.

The body needs internal as well as
external baths to keep 1t healthy. To
give the body an internal bath drink
plenty Of water. Two quarts should
be taken each day, beginning with
glass just after rising and ending with
glass just before retiring. If you
are inclined to stoutness, do not drink
during meals or within half hour be-
fore or after them. If your complexion
is bad, nothing is more conducive to
cure than drinking water either hot or
cold, but preferably the latter.-New
York Press.

The soldier and onea,ence.

Once, when was military attache in
Paris, l was holding a conversation
with Gambetta, and he said to me, "In
these days there are only two things
which soldier need know; he must
know how to march. and he must know
how to shoot"
said. IL beg your pardon, excellen-
cy. there Is third thing. which you
have forgotten"
"What Is that" said he.
And l replied. "He must know how
to obey"
1t is not enough to know how to
march, 1t Is not enough to know how to
shoot; there must in addition be fire
discipline, and that fire discipline
comes of the soldiers knowing how to
obey-to obey not merely with blind
obedience, but with an obedience
which comes from faith, faith in the
officers, faith in their justice, faith in
their knowledge, faith in their skill and
faith In their being the soldiers true
friend.-Sir Henry Brackenburg.
