lied the day before the traders meant
to and left the traders high and dry
with no market to sell on. Stocks
went off under them. Everybody was
depressed and there was a great deal
of long and short selling. Two days
later prices were advanced again; and
again everybody thought that the
movement was on. Stocks rose Fri
day and Saturday and opened pretty
well this morning. 1t looks like an
other false start. Still one can never
tell, and at any rate all that seems
certain and important is that stocks
are well held!' the big fellows have
them and they market them with the
new securities of the new Northern
Pacific Company. Some experts think
that the insiders will be able to sell
only on a very long continued boom; a
bigger boom than any of those of the
last two or three days. Others think
that the realization will be managed
on a series of short-lived advances.

gas is exciting much interest in Eng

kind of small coal and coal dust, call
ed bituminous slack, and the cost is
only about cents per 100 cubic feet.
1t is not an illuminant. and its heating
power is not so great as that of illum-
mating gas, but it is so cheap and so
good for the use intended-in furnaces
and gas engines-that it seems destin-

tions are now pending between Mrs.
Carrie Nation and the city officials of
Medicine Lodge, her home town,
whereby she is to conduct the NUM-
cipal affairs of that place for one week
only.
If during that time, according to
the arrangement, Mrs. Nation bet.
ters the condition OF trade and social
relations of Medicine Lodge, then she
will be allowed to run the town per-
manentlg.
If, on the other hand, business
should fall off for the week and ma
iority Of the citizens grow dissatisfied
with her conduct of affairs, then the
city officers will continue to run it
with wide-open saloons and all the fix
lures of vice that are now conducted
there.
Mrs. Nation has written the follow
ing letter concerning her manner of
conducting an ideal town:
zone thing 1 would establish and
that is to have everyone help some one
else. l would have no ragged chill
dren. would have no vile tobacco
smoke places. l would make it an
insult to woman or man to have an.
other blow the vile smoke in their face.
l would make law against splitting
tobacco on the sidewalks l would
have good band of music to play on
the streets every night, SO the people
after their days work was Done could
enjoy a song. l would have the
streets kept clean and the air pure SO
that little children could play in the
streets end be safe.
81 would punish lying, as that is the
beginning of all sins. 1 would honor
above all the citizen who would earn
his living by the sweat of his or her
brow. should require that every
citizen retire early SO as to get sutti-
cient rest.
