NEW YORK, July 1.-THE satisfac-
tory prospects for the growing crops.
particularly for corn. resulted in a fair
ly active and generally strong market
for stocks today.
At the moment lenders of money are
indisposed to tie up their funds for
long periods, hence the comparative ease
of the call money market and the firm
ness Of the market for time loans and
commercial paper In other words,
bankers are inclined to feel their way,
particularly as Chicago and New Or
leans have made unusually early de-
mands for currency upon this center.
Demand Falling Of.
The demand from Chicago shows signs
OF diminution. and at the same time
shipments from that point to other in
terror points are falling off. To this
extent the domestic situation is less un-
favorable than a week ago. At the same
time the fact must not be overlooked
that the corner in July corn contains
serious element of danger which would
become an actuality should the oper-
ators who are short on July options
succeed in seci ring enough of the cereal
to make deliveries.
At the moment the various possibili-
ties referred to seem to be ignored in
the stock market. The dealings in
stocks today were considerably above the
average Of the last week or two, with
Union Pacific leading in respect to ac-
tivity, and Atchison common, which was
second, enjoying the greatest net ad-
vance. That stock closed 25s per cent
higher Than on Saturday while Union

flag of Denmark owes the deepest allie
glance of his heart to another banner,
and he tells us how he came to recog-
nize that he does so. Visiting his old

long in depressing apathy of mind and

Links That Bind Old to- New.

The links that bind the old to the

terial for good stories. Let me give
story as partial proof of the assertion:
While in conversation with Captain
Charles p. Stivers. chief commissary of
the Department of the Visayas, Philip
pine Islands, he incidentally spoke of
his grandfather as having been seri-
ously wounded at Gettysburg, wound
which resulted in total blindness. Re
calling a general, an officer of the First
Army Corps whom l knew, and who re-
ceived such an injury at Gettysburg, I
asked Capt. Stivers If his grandfather
was General Gabriel r. Paul. He

sary and the chief paymaster became
better acquainted, for the latter had
served with Gen. Paul and was always
one of his warm admirers. The good
soldiership, fine generalship and sturdy
manhood of Gen. Paul, together with
the superior military record of Capt.
Stivers' father, were the prime causes
which led to the younger mans SOL
diership. AS soon as he was old enough

fore his term in the volunteer regiment
expired he returned as captain to the
regular army, in the cOmmissary de-
partment. So much for this Capt. Stiv-
ers. Now we will speak of his grand
father Gen. Paul, grand soldier, who
won distinction, and his father. an
other model soldier, who had an ex-
perience somewhat different from that
OF any other army officer of the old
days. The regiment to which Capt.
Paul and Lieut.. Stivers belonged at
the outbreak of the civil war was sta
toned in Texas. Both of these officers
were from border states, Paul from
Missouri and Stivers from Kentucky,
which furnished as many Confederates
as they did Union soldiers. There was
never a sign of a doubt in the mind
Of Capt. Paul as to where his lot
would be cast when the war came; but
Lieut.. Stivers, his son-in-law, quite
| young man, thought of his old home in
| Kentucky. of the many associates who
| would follow the fortunes of the south,
| and had some misgivings, or, perhaps
| l should say. was greatly perplexed and
| asked the counsel of his captain. All
| that Capt. Paul said was, Come with
| me-" They walked out upon the parade
ground, and as the fresh breeze dis
played the flag of the nation, the older
man removed his cap and pointed to
the Stars and Stripes. Not word was
said by either The two men then re-
turned to their quarters. From that
moment" said Lieut.. Stivers, in speak
ing of the incident, there was no room
for doubt in my mind or in my heart
as to what my duty was.''-Maj. ]. A

Scientific gardening is taught in the
national schools OF Sweden and in the
seminaries for the education of nation
al school teachers. There is a school
garden in nearly every rural school
district in the kingdom. The garden
is placed near the schoolhouse, and the
children receive practical instruction in
the cultivation of plants, berries, flow
ers, herbs, and fruits, the management
of hotbeds. green houses, etc. The par
ishes are required to furnish the nee
essary ground for the gardens, and
trees and shrubs are annually given
to the children to be planted at theJ

died round about and through the
darkness, over the sage brush and the
cactus, the cry sped on its way until
at last it fell into the ears of one who
lay prone upon the sand-one who had
lain for hours, a pain within his heart,
his mind oblivious to all surroundings.
He raised his head and listened and
in his eyes the vacant stare gave place
to the light of reason.
Again the voice came to him: God!
Save me; some one save met"
He sprang to his feet and, with
| cry of Nina! Nina!" he sped like
coyote towards the red glare that
seemed reckoning to him through the

With the woman's name still upon
his lips, he sprang into the midst of
those huddled upon the sand and seiz-
ing an axe, leaped desperately into the
burning wreck
F'iercely rose and fell his axe; the
flames Tapped his feet and climbing up
and up, fed hungrily upon his gar
ments and his eyebrows and his hair.
But still he worked; still his axe rose
and fell; still the name of Nina"
came from his parching lips.
And then. with his flesh blistering

from the red-hot kisses of the flames,
he reached wCmans hand and
dragged her from the reach of the de-
vouring element.

on the sand then he reeled and sank

scorched humanity.
