while so much interest is manifested in
archaeological discoveries, those being made

location Of what is undoubtedly the resting

one of the resting places. for there are

besides the loss of coffee which is estimated
at about 100000 quintals, the corn ana
wheat fields are ruined.
Owing to the unusually high rate of ex-
change business is entirely paralyzed. for
all imported articles have reached such
prices that very few persons can afford to
buy them. and most Of the merchants sell
just enough to cover their expenses. The
worst part of the present bad condition is
that no one knows how or when it Will

now. Articles of first necessity have reach

are suffering.

NEW YORK, December 1S-In the Lon
don stock market today American shares
developed more activity and strength than
has been displayed for some time at that
center, the advances extending from u to
rs. Consois were one-sixteenth better for
both accounts.
In the local stock market initial prices
were very much better than the closing
figures Of the day before.
The more pacific news regarding the
Venezuelan situation contained in the
morning dispatches; expectation of a bet
ter bank statement at the end of the week:
more money coming in from the interior
and from the west; larger attendance of
brokers on the floor; buying by London and
the commission houses, and. above all else,
the big drop in December corn were re-
sponsible for the greater strength. and at
times the almost buoyant feeling that char
acterized the early dealings in the stock
market.
Baltimore and Ohio gained IL; Louis

souri, Pacific, III; Tennessee Coal and Iron,
rs. and Third Avenue. 1. In fact, in the
actiVe list there were very lew advances as
small as u per cent.
The bears were still on the run in South
ern Pacific, and there were evidences of
hasty covering of short contracts in other
active specialties.
The market reacted fractionally after the
first half hour of business. but the tone
continued strong. and up to the noon hour
there had been several outbursts of bullish
activity.
In the rallies the earlier advances were
improved from " to 1 per cent. the latter
movements occurring In such stocks st.
Paul, Louisville and Nashville, Southern
Pacific and Sugar. The total number of
shares in the first two hours Of trading
footed up half million.
In the early afternoon another strong
rally occurred when prices touched the
best figures of the day. The trading at this
time was rather mixed, but from close OBJ
servations the purchases seemed mainly
for the short account, while the selling
looked like good realizing by the people
who had the temerity to buy stocks during
the past few days when the situation looked
rather gloomy.
The market has certainly enjoyed good
recovery from the low figures of this and
last week, and the market is likely to be
a good trading one for the balance of the
month 1t looks like good policy to take
quick profits when they occur and to also
Tighten ship when the opportunity offers.
Around o'clock the market became less
active and there was a tendency to ease off
a little, but the undertone continued fairly
firm and pressure to sell large amounts of
stocks was lacking. In the late trading the
reactionary tendency was still in evidence,
but the declines were not very important.

FIRE ALARM OUTFIT.
Report of Electrical Engineer on Re
quest of Columbia Hospital

W. C. Allen, the electrical engineer has
submitted report to the Commissioners
relative to the request of the authorities of
the Columbia Hospital for the cooperation
OF the Commissioners In securing an in
Simultaneous fire alarm outfit for the institu-
ton at as low cost as possible. He says
the cost of installing a fire-alarm box in the
hospital is $3.50. The connection is by
means of overhead wires which 1t is posi-
BILE to make at this time as there is one
circuit in that section of the city overhead.
Arrangements must be made, however. in
stead of decreas sing the cost to increase the
cost of installation. as the department con-
templates moving the circuit and placing it
underground. In this case the hospital must
be prepared, should they install fire-alarm
box at this time, to pay an additional sum.
$500 perhaps. to connect the premises under
ground. The nearest point of the under
ground cable is at the corner of oath and
Pennsylvania avenue, from which point an
extension would have to be made to the hos
pital at 18th street and the avenue. The
$500 would only be a portion of the cost of
extending the conduit, but the electrical
department would share in its cost as the
conduit would also be used for it's own
purposes.
AS to the cost of the auxiliary system the
$40 rate is made by the Instantaneous Fire
Alarm Company, and there is no way by
which that rate can be reduced unless the
company is willing to ask less for the ap-
pliance. The auxiliary attachments and ap-
paratus could be installed by the electrical
department at cost, but they require the
services Of a skilled electrician to keep them
in order. and the department has not the
means nor the men for this class of special
service.

He plays occasionally in a gentleman's
game Of poker. After a stag dinner he may
try roulette or faro in one of the gambling
houses that are nominaIly run as private
clubs. These private gambling houses are
extensively appointed to suit the sybaritic
taste Of such young men There is no os-
tentatious scrambling for winnings IN them
nor does the loser bewail his losses. They
are run in accordance with the strictest
ethics of the gamblers code. To one of
these houses last winter young bachelor

Easter Sunday Privileges.
From the Detroit News.


Having read "A kissing Carnival in q
British Town. it reminded me OF an Eas-
terly custom in vogue fifty years ago In
Harrowgate, Yorkshire, England. It may
be practiced at the present day, but that
cannot vouch for. The men went in groups
Of three or four on Easter Sunday. and
when they met a young woman they would
take off of her shoes, In as polite
way as possible, which she could redeem by
paying a small fee. The fees gathered thus
by the men during the day were spent in
ale at night. On the Monday following the
young women appropriated the mems head
gear and retained them until redeemed by
small or large fees, which provided tea
party for the gentler sex. There was no
osculation-in public, anyhow.
Harrowgate was village Of notoriety
and Importance at that time. 1t had sui
phur and other waters, and was the sum-
mer resort of the upper ten. At the time
/ write about Miss Burdett Coutts (now
baroness) was one of a large number Of
visitors, but was pestered by a country
man of mine, a barrister, who would per-
s!stentiy make love to her that she cut her
visit short, much to the chagrin OF the
hotel keepers.

The Regulation of Clocks.
e London Daily Chonicle

From the London Daily Chronicle.
The remarkable pendulum experiment In
the Pantheon at Paris to prove the rotation
of the earth strikingly illustrates the ma
jestic uses of the familiar clockmaker's
device. 1t seems almost impossible of be-
lief. in an age of well-regulated watches
that the closks of Galileos time could not
be kept going at a uniform speed. Clocks
went by means of a dragging weight, but
the pendulum had not been thought Of
as a regulator. 1t occurred to Calico to
make a clock with the pendulum only, but,
of course, the work Of turning the wheels
stopped it. 1t was left to Huygens, in 1855,
fourteen years after the great astronomer
death, to combine the pendulum with the
dragging weight and thus solve the problem
of reckoning astronomical time with exacti-
tude.

Gold is Everywhere.
From the London Chronicle.

r TOM tue 1OnuOu CDfOnlcle.
Gold is to be found in most things as we
know now-eyen in sea water-but some ex-
periments recently made in Sydney under
the auspices OF the local Royal Society
yielded curious results in this connection.
Dust collected from the roof Of the Sydney
observatory was found to contain cobalt,
nickel and gold. while at the university
building-a couple Of miles further away
from the sea-gold was also discovered In
the dust. The observatory is within a
stones throw Of Sydney harbor, with the
wharves all around it, and probably the
nickel and cobalt are to be traced to the
shipments OF rough ore brought over from
New Caledonia from time to time. But the
gold Is everywhere and 1t was shown to be
present In dust collected promiscuously at
such unlikely places as Moruya, Meni,,die
and other towns far removed from the

OF some future invention. this common dust
may be made to pay for the working, and

The Present Unsupplied Want That It
Would Be Profitable to Fill.
From the Chicago Inter-ocean


Men who were boys in the middle west
thirty and forty years ago have been great
ly discouraged of late by the kind of corn
neal usually offered them. 1t may be very
good meal from certain viewpoints. but it
is not the kind Of bread they knew and
liked when they were boys.
Nor does the change in taste which oc-
ours in the years between ten and forty, as
couragement. When they can now and
then get hold of meal made in the old way
such men find the bread made from 1t Just
much to their taste at forty as 1t was
when they were ten. The trouble is that
modern milling processes have essentially
changed the quality of cornmeal, and con-
seuuently the quality of corn bread.
Not long ago there was man in Chicago,
pretty we'll known in the world of letters,
and brought up on corn bread, who became
so disguised with modern cornmeal that he
resolved to see if the old kind could not be
obtained His search for it in the local
markets was vain. Finally he remembered
that on his brothers plantation down in
Tennessee was an old-faShioned water mill
grinding corn for the owner and his neigh
bors. Thither he sent for meal, and was
reioiced to find that from IT could be made
the bread that he liked as boy.
He told his friends of similar tastes about
it, They tried the bread made from this
manded to be supplied with it, although in
the nature Of things it was considerably
more expensive than meal made by modern
milling processes. But the Tennessee
brother. while glad to be able to please his
Chic ago brothers friends, did not care to
go into the milling business. and SO the
dearth of old-fashioned cornmeal remained
practically unrelieyed.
In these facts there would seem an OPP
portunitv for industrial development out
OF which some miilerS ought to be abe con-
siderably to increase their business and pos
siblv to make reasonable fortunes. 1t GER
tainly ought to be possible so to adapt mill
ing machinery that, while preserving the
economics of modern methods, it would still
produce a meal of the quality of the old-
fashioned kind made with burr stones in
water mills. And for such cornmeal. IL
proDerlv introduced. there is a market that
would grow as the younger generation
learned to know the delights of the corn
bread their fathers ate when they were
bows.
