Monday, Dec. 8.
In natural rotation the grain mar
tet stepped aside to-day for New
York stocks, which were prominent for
their advances. The list was led by
Amalgamated Copper, which slumped
during the early hours, but later ral-
lied. closing the day at material ad-
vance on the opening price. At New
York there were large transactions the
total sales being upward of $4,000
shares, and it was understood that the
stock was being dealt in elsewhere.
Traders in. the South were reported as
dsbbling in this stock, but before it's
fluctuations became excited they had
probably Withdrawn. as few losses of
consequence are reported.
Little of interest was doing in the
local cotton markets. While futures
scored an advance of 8 to Is points ex-
porters were not inclined to pay the
asked prices, either at the port or in
the country, the days business was
limited. In the local fob. market the
country was reported as being partic-
ularly Indifferent.
Naval stores closed firm with fair
transactions in both spirits and rosins
AT a decline of sc on H and below

COULDN'T WEAR SHOES.

Sumptcr, ILL.,, June 10.-Mrs. ]. B.
Flanagan, of this place, had suffered
with Dropsy for fifteen years. She
was SO very bad that tor the last
three years, she has not been able to
wear her shoes. She had doctored all
the time, but was gradually getting
worse.
Last winter Mr.. Flanagan, who was
very much discouraged, called for
some medicine at Mr.. ]. j. Dale's drug
store in Carmi. Mr.. Dale persuaded
him to have his wife try Dodd's Kidney
Pills, and he bought six boxes. His
wife used five out of the six, before
she was entirely cured. She Is now as
sound and we'll as ever she was, COM
pletely restored to health, and free
from any symptom whatever OF
Dropsy.
To say that Mrs. Flanagan is pleased
at her wonderful deliverance, does not
half express her feelings, and she
and Mr.. Flanagan are loud in their
praises of Dodd's Kidney Pills, and OF
Mr.. Dale for recommending this won.
derful remedy to them.
The fact that Dodd's Kidney Pills
cured Mrs. Flanagan of such q severe
case of Dropsy, after the doctors had
given her up, has made them the most
talked-of remedy ever known in White
County.

my little boy had been suffering for

after taking two bottles of Peruna the
trouble almost entirely disappeared.
For this special malady I consider it

Rev. A. S. Vaughn, Eureka Springs,

the wind lad 91esh ned to =.

morning the wind 61d n1Rk saed to 4
gale. All air-ports were closed. The
spray swept the promenade deck
along the starboard7 side, and the Red
Cross and two-thirds of the martial
passenger-list forgot all minor ills
and annoyances' in the miseries of
NAL de mer. Three days and nights
were most of the womenfolk cooped
in their cabins, but Miss Ray was an
old sailor and had twice seen far
heavier weather on the Atlantic.
Sheltered from the rain bv thu
bridge-decl<~ and from the spray and
gale by heavy canvas dashed athwart-
ship in front of the captains room,
and securely strapped in her reclin-
ing-chair, this young lady fairly re-.
joiced in the magnificent battle with
the elements and gloried in the
bursting seas. Sandy too, albeit a
trifle upset, was able to be on deck.
and one of the subs from the port
side, hearing of it., donned his outer
garments and cavalry boots and
joined forces with them, and Stuyve-
SAINT, hearing their merry voices, de-
clared that he could not breathe in
his stuffy cabin and demanded to be
dressed and borne out on deck too.
At first the surgeon said: "No."
whereupon his patient began to get
worse.
So on the second day the doctor
yielded, and all that day and the
third of the storm, by which time the
starboard deck was slowly becoming
peopled with few spectral and bare
ly animate feminine shapes, Stuyve-
SAINT reclined within arms length of
the dark-eyed girl who had so en-
tranced him. studying her beauty,
drinking in her words, and gaining
such health and strength in the life
giving air and such bliss from the as
ISOLATION that Sturgis contemplated
with new complacency the happy re-
suit of his treatment, for when the
gale subsidized, and on the fourth day
they ran once more into smooth and
lazy waters, it was Stuyvesant's con-
Stunning desire to take up his bed and
walk, except when Miss Ray was
there to talk or read to him.
And this was the state of affairs
when the Sacramento hove in sight
of the bold headlands, green and
beautiful, that front the sea at the
northeast corner of mountainous
Luzon. Once within soundings and
close to a treacherous shore, with
only Spanish authority to rely on as
to rocks, reefs and shoals, no wonder
old Butt could have no women on the
bridge, this too at the very time they
most wished to be there, since everv-
thing worth seeing lay on the port
or southern side, and that given up
to those horrid officers and their
pajamas.
Not until his anchor dropped in Ma.
Mia bay did the master of the Sacra-
mento think to redeem his promise
to bid the ladies of the Red Cross ia
the sacred bridge, and incidentally ia
tell them how Miss Ray had urged it
in their behalf while they were out
on blue waters-but now it was too
late.
Willmar tribune. [volume] (Willmar, Minn.) 1895-1931, 1901-09-18

= ~
mariner had singled out Miss Ray for
some piece of attention. Now, de-
spite; the fact that almost the entire
Red Cross party : were seated or
strolling or reclining there under the
canvas awning and he must have
known it, although they were hid
den from his view, he again made
that young lady the object OF his
homage. She was at the moment
leaning over the rail, with Sandy by
her side, gazing at the dark blue,
beautiful waters that, flashing and
foam-crested, went sweeping beneath
her. The monarch of the ship, stand
ing at the outer end of the bridge,
had caught sight of her and gave
tongue at once. A good seaman was
the captain and a .stalwart man, but
he knew nothing Of tact or discre-
ton.
"Oh, Miss Ray he bawled, 'come
upon the bridge and I'll show you
the chart. Bring the lieutenant"
For an instant she hesitated, re-
1uctant. Not even the staff of the
commanding officer had set foot on
that sacred perch since the voyage
began. Only when especially hidden
or at boat or fire drill did that mag
nate himself presume to ascend
those stairs. AS for her sister nurses,
though they had explored the lower
regions and were well acquainted
with the interior arrangement of the
Sacramento, and were consumed with
curiosity and desire to see what was
aloft on the hurricane-deck, the stern
prohibition still staring at them in
bold, brazen letters: "Passengers are
Forbidden upon the Bridge" had
served to restrain the impulse to
climb.
And now here was Capt. Butt
singing out Miss Ray again and ig-
noring the rest of them. If she could
have found any reasonable excuse for
refusing Maidie Ray would have de-
clined. But Sandy's eyes said:
"Come:'' Butt renewed his invita-
ton. She turned and looked appeal
ingly at Mrs. Wells, as though to
say NudU Shall uO! UuG Uudt
matron was apparently engrossed in
a volume of Stevenson, and would not
be drawn into the matter, and finally
Marion caught Miss Porter's eye
There, at least, was a CLEAN of en-.
couragement and sympathy. I'm.
pulsive and capricious as that young
woman could be on occasions, the
girl had learned to appreciate the
genuine qualities of her roommate
and of late had been taking sides fol
Marion against the jealousies of he1
fellows.
"Why don't you go?" she muir
INJURED, with a nod of her head to-
wards the stairs, and with slightly
heightened color Miss Ray smiled &C
ceptance at the captain, and, follow
ing Sandy's lead through the laby
rinth of steamer chairs about them
tripped briskly away over the oper
deck, and there, at the very foot Of
the steep, ladder-like ascent, became

aware of Mr.. Stuyvesant leaning on
an elbow and gazing at her with all
his big blue eyes.
She had to stop and go around IN
der the stairs and take his thin, out
stretched hand. She had to stop a
moment to speak to him, though
what he said, or she said, neither
knew moment after. All she was
conscious of as she turned away was
that now at least every eye in oil
the sisterhood was on her, and, red.
der than ever, she fairly flew up the
steep, and was welcomed by the
| chivalric Butt upon the bridge.
That afternoon several of the band
were what Miss Porter was con.
strained to- call ''nastily snippy" in
their manner to her, and, feeling
wronged and misjudged, it was not
to be wondered at that her fathers
daughter should resent it. And vet
so far from exu1ting in having thus
been distinguished and recognized
above her fellows, Miss Ray had felt
deeply embarrassed, and almost the
first words she said after receiving
the bluff seaman's ELUSIVE greeting
were in plea for her associates.
"Oh, Capt. Butt, it's most kind OF
you to ask me up here-and my
brother, too, will be so interested in
the chart-room, but, can't you-won't
you ask DR.. Wells and at least some
of the ladies? You know they all
would be glad to come, and
''That's all right, Miss Ray"
bawled old Butt, breaking in on her
hurried words. "I'll ask 'em up here
some other time. You see we're roll
ing bit to-day, and like as not some
of 'em would pitch over things, and
and-wen, there amt room for
more'n three at time anyhow"
''Then you ought to have asked DR..
Wells first and some of the seniors. -
She hesitated about saying elders.
No one of the band would have vel
coined an invitation rendered on &C.
count Of her advanced years.
It'll be just as bad if go and ask
her now" said Butt, testify. "The
others will take offense, and life's
too short for shipmaster to be ex-
planning to a lot Of women why they
can't all come at once on the bridge.
I'll have 'em up to-morrow-any
three you say" = -. = = :
But when the morrow came he
didn't shave 'em up!" Maidie had
pleaded Loyalty for her associates,
but was too proud or sensitive to. SO
inform them. The captain had said
he would do that, and meanwhile she
tried not to feel exasperated at the
injured airs assumed by several OF
the band and the cutting remarks Of
one or two of their number.
That afternoon, however, the skies
became overcast and the wind rose.
That night the sea dashed high to-
wards the rail and the Sacramento
wallowed deep in the surges. Next
