republicans make for staying with the

would ask the members of that party
to read them carefully and then t o try

WHEAT FIELD IN SHIPS HOLD.
steamer Presents IA strange
sight

\ field of grain in steamships hold
was one of the curious sights recently
seen in the port of Philadelphia. The
vessel was the British tramp Elwick
Many persons were attracted to / he
ship TO view the interesting exhibit,
SAYS Il report from that city.
The Elwick under command of Capt
Clark has been running between Phil
adelphia and English ports, carrying
wheat and corn in bulk She returned
from the other side on her last voyage
partially balIastcd with dirt. It was
owing 10 the latter that the growth Of
grain was possible.
The interesting discovery was made
bya foremost hand who had occasion
10 go into the hold. He reported to
the captain that the Elwicl was grow
ing wheat crop. Capt. Clark made
m investigation and found that such
was indeed the case.
Many grains OF wheat remained
secret"d in hooks and corners in the
hold after the ship had been dis
charged on the other side. and the
pitching Of the vessel on her trip to he
nlted states caused them 70 fall upon
the dirt. The grain soon sprouted ia
the warm and damp hold and il now
presents a remarkable appearance.

height of the Wall street boom. saws
the London Daily News.
The talk turned on that subject.
and the American, who had bought
largely at high figures. maintained
against the general opinion that the
great prices rested on a solid bust
ness basis. Suddenly he saw in the
spoonful of soup which he was rails
ing to his lips four letters, forming
the word Sell" Somewhat shaken
by this, for he was a man of a super
stitious turn Of mind, he went on
with his soup in a troubled mood,
until only six of the small white cap
itals remained floating in his plate.
They spelled the word Unload"
Hastily rising he excused himself
upon plea of indisposition, and took
cab to the nearest open telegraph
Office. He cabled 10 his broker, or

a little brook when | came suddenly
upon queer sight. Not four feet in

sun, lay four mountain lions, asleep,
For half a minute | thought them
with my heart in my mouth everyone
of them sprang up with growl. And
they faced around at me, looking
ugly, shifting the air with their whiS-

line of their teeth. switching their
calls and looking like demons.
