THE WHlTTLERs OF PARIS.
How Men Of a Missouri Town Amuse
Themselves With Knives.

In the little Missouri town OF Pari !;
are band Of whittlers. the like Of
which will We found in no other village
in this country. They are a little
band OF "Roycrofters," about one dor
en- strong who met every day at q
hardware store and make shavings
and some butter paddles. They
whittle all day long and white until
dark and it has been going on for
years, says the Kansas City Journal.
The popularity OF their whiting
lies In the fact that the only kind CT
wood they will white Is red cedar
They get some farmer to bring in n
red cedar post or log. and have =.
sawed into small pieces; these are
stacked up like cordwood in the rear
part of the hardware store, and tn ~
white away until their stock Is OK
hausted, when they Immediately get
another supply.
The first of these "Roycrofters' TO
arrive in the morning is Father Gro ",
and soon the rest file in one at time,
and business is In full blast, They
white as If their lives depended on it
until noon. when short recess Is
taken for dinner; then the entire at
ternoon is spent in whiting. As
darkness falls, Father Grow silently
folds up his jackknife and home they
go, only to return the next morning
and go thr, ugh the same program, and
so on winter and summer, 1t has been
going on for years.
The good natured storekeeper
sweeps up the shavings each evening
and a clean DOR awaits the whittlers
every morning.
Red cedar is soft aid has very
pleasant odor and doese not dull the
knife. With these men no other kind
OF wood will do. They have the cod n
habit During the whiting the topics
of the day are discussed and the Cos
sip at times resembles an old ladies'
sewing society.
Let stranger walk In there anv

instinctively take out his knife AMI
pick up cedar chip and go to whit.

and say anything disparaging aboIt

go he will find himself canned" The
canning process consists of plnning a
string to his coattail with a tin can
full OF rocks on the other end.

The forestry problem, In California
has long been serious one. Among
all the forest reservations within the
state none includes that most charac-
teristic Californian tree, the sequoia

the redwood. This grows nowhere

owns not one acre of redwood forest.

vate parties. and the trees are rapidly
being converted into lumber But with

THE STOCK MARK E1.
No Aggressive Bull Spirit Yesterday.

New York, Oct. 2S.-There was no

 for special stocks from time to time,
 and a rather halting attempt made to
 revive the spirit of the bulls by bid
 ding up a group of specialties about
 midday. The demand for stocks, how
 ever, was at a minimum and prices
 kept sagging to a lower level. The
 pressure was not severe through the greater part of the day but gained force
 and in the last hour of the session be-
 came acute. The bears added their selling to the realizing and uncovered stop loss orders. The realizing was by recent speculative buyers evidently, as was shown by the conspicuous weak ness of those stocks which have been under recent manipulation for the ad- vance.

FIRE IN NEW LONDON.

The Palmer Residence Destroyed -
 Loss ST. 000.
 New London, Oct. 23,-- Shortly after midnight fire was discovered in the handsome residence of R. T. Palmer jr., at the corner of Broad and Hemp stead streets, and before the flames were under control the house was com pletely destroyed. It was about 1245 this morning when MT. Palmer who occupied room in the ell at the rear of the house, woke up with a sense of suffocation. As soon as he was awake he discovered that the house was full of smoke, and knew at once that the house was on fire. At 3 o'clock the flames were under. control. The inter- ior of the building was completely burned out, and practically nothing was left standing but the walls and roof of the structure The house was enc of the handsonest residences in New London and is rated as the most substantial building in the neighbor- hood.
 The loss on the burned structure is not known as yet, but the building was worth not less than $15,000. The loss on the furniture is of course unknown, but will probably reach $2,000.

q out. The renewed weakness of Amal- influence The selling of this stock and of Sugar was very heavy for Boston account. Call loans rose to-day to 4 per cent. and the assurance which was professed on Saturday over the in- crease in the cash reserves of the banks was dissipated and yielded to anxiety on account of the large loan expansion. Foreign exchange continued firm to- day but no gold was engaged for ex- port to Germany by to~morrow's steamers. There was no rally, how ever in sterling exchange at Paris, and it is generally expected that gold will go from New York to that point on Thursday in considerable volume. Call money stiffened sharply in London and open market discount rates rose well above the bank rate, indicating an ear ly advance by the bank. In the do- mestic money market a renewed &C., tivity of money at western points was reported and New York exchange at Chicago dropped back to 25 cents dis count while shipments to New Orleans from here continue. The daily surplus of the government revenue is rapidly augmenting in the latter part of the month, making an additional drain on the money market.
 The railroad bond market was influ- enced somewhat by the weakness in stocks but changes were not impor- tant. Total sales par value $2, 100000.
 United States bonds were all un- changed on the last call.
