Of the Stock Market Letter of J. L. Nc.
 Lean & Co.,
 New York June 13.-Wal Street has al ready begun to discount the collapse of the coal strike. The miners are undoubtedly losing ground every day. The insiders have been cognizant of this fact for some time, and have been quitely puyIng the better class of stock on all recessions, but have made no effort to create bullish enthusiasm; on the other hand, they have encouraged liquidation and short selling until the latter has assumed tremendous proportions, and will be big bull factor when an attempt is made to cover.
 Many stocks are loaning flat on the ex- change, proving that the short interest is abnormal. The splendid outlook for grow ing crops, accompanied by q steady in crease in the railroad earnings. are features that will be taken full advantage of to create bullish enthusiasm q little later on. good bull market this summer, similar to those of 1897 and 1898. Speculativey, there is in evidence an increased demand for stocks. and the supply is daily getting smaller.
 We particularly advise buying the Read ings, Erie and T. c. l. on first slight re- action, and. in our opinion those who wait for the coal strike to be settled will be com pelled to come in at muehhighe prices.

AN INCIDENT OF CLEMENT 5
 T,ANyyTACg

The party had proceeded about three miles from Mendon when an incident
 bannened which caused the newspaper
 men to be the object of considerable friendly "jollying" during the remain der of the trip The horses were slow ly picking their way through the rocky road when a big black bear, which looked to the other members of the par
 tv to weigh about 300 pounds, but to the representatives of the press about three times that ambled out into the road just ahead of the horses. With we'll the pencil pushers bounded out Of the carriage and started with rush up n. steep embankment at the left of the road, expecting every moment to feel sharp claw tearing the flesh from their limbs.
 When they reached the top of the em bankment one of them had the temerity to look back and to his surprise and as- tonishment he espied the bear tearing through the bushes in the opposite di- rection It was an open question which had been the most scared, the bear or the men.
 Deer appeared at the roadside sev- eral times during the days journey, all of the being does and lawns.

SEC. SHAW AND CUSTOM.
THE INSPECTORS OF YOUR PER
 SONAL BAGGAGE
Arc to Wear White Cotton Gloves
 Hereafter.

Secretary Shaw has done his best to mitigate the sufferings of returning travellers, about which there has been so much complaint. The inspectors of personal baggage are to wear white cotton gloves hereafter, so as not to soil the frocks and other garments they have to handle. They must repack the trunks they empty, must avoid unnecessary exposure of the trunks contents and must put up with the reasonable impatence of distracted travellers without discourteous conduct in return. An efficient person in suit able garb Is to settle under discussion between inspectors and travellers. and receive travellers complaints. Officers are enjoined to avoid petty exactions under a narrow interpretation of the law and a misappurehension of the purposes of the inspection" Customs officials are forbidden to accept gratui- ties, and passengers are requested not to tempt them Any lady who wants her baggage examined in private shall be gratified in that particular provided the steamship company has furnished a suitable room. As for the practice of requiring declaration from travellers and afterwards examining their bag gage to see if they have told the truth, the secretary says: "If all people were honest, one or the other of these re- quirements might be avoided, but, un- der existing conditions, it has been found impracticable to omit either" The recent issue of four circulars and a statement has attested the earnest ness of the secretary's purpose to make things as much easier for travellers as the laws will permit. There is a circu- lar for travellers taking ship out of the country, and another for returning travellers, telling them what they must expect when they get home, so that their minds and documents may be pre- pared beforehand The path through the customs house is not lined with primroses even now, but the secretary has doubtless bettered it little, and cert ainly he has shown solicitude and good will.-Harper's Weekly.

determine what these articles shall be; affects special schedules, or countreis other than Cuba, is wholly aside from the subject-matter to which I call your attention,
 Some of our citizens oppose the lowering of the tariff on Cuban pro- ducts, just as three years ago they op- posed the admission of the Hawaiian Islands, lest free trade with them might ruin certain of our interests here In the actual ev3nt their fears proved baseess as regards Hawaii, and their approximations as to the damage to any industry of our own because of the proposed measure of reciprocity with Cuba seem to me equally base less In my Judgment, no American industry will be hurt, and many Ameri- can industries will be benefited, by the proposed action. It is to our ad- vantage as a nation that the growing Cuban market should be controlled by American producers.
 OUR PECULIAR DELEGATIONS TO

 "The events following the war with Spain and the prospective building of the Isthman Canal, render 1t certain that we must take in the future a far greater h. tereSt than hitherto in what happens throughout the West Indies, Central Amer lea, and the adjacent coasts and waters. We expect Cuba to treat HIS on an excep- tonal footing politically, and we should put nomicaly.

GONE FIVE YEARS.
When Coffee Left the Troubles Dlsap-
 peared.

It is hard to make people understand that coffee really will do business for them if they stick to it long enough. It is almost certainty that some little symptoms of disease. stomach trouble. or kidney or heart trouble, caused by coffee drinking will ultimately develop into some fixed organic disease unless the cause of the disturbance Is removed An illustration may not be amiss.
 A lady In Kearney, Neb., says, "I used coffee a great many years. Gradually my health broke down. I had dyspep sia and was extremely nervous. I pass ed many sleepless nights but, like many others, did not know what was the cause of my invalidism.
 Finally the trouble centered into a fatty tumor just over the stomach and in the region of the heart, causing acute pain in the stomach and a spasmodic action of the heart A surgical opera ton was deemed necessary. but after all the preparations were made a good, old, honest doctor suggested that I take Urea tment a little longer and leave off coffee and take Postum and some Grape-Nuts Breakfast Food
 I began on Postum and had it made property Dy lcIlS DblllIiS anu lOullu IL delicious and drank two cups the first morning. After two weeks discovered q marked change for the better In five months my supposed tumor had disap- peared, my headaches were gone and digestion wholly restored. My heart only gave me trouble few times. That was five years ago. I have been steady user of Postum ever since and am new creature today. Am in strong and vigorous health and know exactly how to account for it.
 The ignorance of people on the sub ject of coffee is a constant wonder to me. although, at one time, of course, was just as much in the dark as any one could be. going along year after year putting into my body the poison that was killing me and never knowing it.'

FDUARDO'S TEMPER AND KNIFE.

EDUARDO'S TEMPER AND KNIFE
 Eduardo Palomo, 16 years of age, a nephew of Esteban Palomo, the we'll
 known criminal lawyer, yesterday fla
 tally stabbed Adolfo Solomon, boy
 two years his junior. The knife entered
 the walls of the bladder. At the Con-
 zalez hospital, where the Solomon boy
 was taken, 1t was stated last night that he could not recover. Solomon is the son of Mrs. Condelaria Solomon, a widow who lives at 7S Isaac Garza street. The stabbing occurred on Guerrero street in front of the San Juan drug store. The boys met there and Palomo made grimace at young Salomo, who replied with an insulting remark. In an instant the others knife was out, and before Salomo had a chance to run Palomo was at him stab bing with the fury of a young demon. Bystanders, attracted by the outcry of the younger boy, rushed to his rescue. Before they reached the scene young Palomo had made particularly vicious thrust, dropped his knife and was run ming away. Four hours later he walked into the police station and gave him. self up. Young Palomo is said to have an uncomfortable temper. It is so bad that his uncle decided that he could do very little with him and apprenticed him to tailor.-Monterey News.

 Claud Hill, the lunch stand man, sort CT blushed and reminded her that she had forgotten something. The old lady did not understand evidently, for she went back, looked at the counter, felt in the satchel and said, ''I guess not.'' Claud then told her she had forgotten to pay for the meal.

Then she lit in on smooth young fellows who thought they were smart trying to rob a poor old defenseless woman, charg- ing her for meals when she had rail- road ticket in her pocket which showed she was to be taken clear through to Arkansaw and she lowed that ticket paid for it all. There was no use, and. Claud told her to go on.
 It was learned from the newsboy that the old woman had cut just such capers all along with every lunch stand man on the road. He also said when she wanted a banana, chewing gum or anything else which he had in his kit she just got up. walked down to where he kept his things and got them. He tried to remonstrate with her but to no avail for she clearly thought every thing on the train was free for the taking.

THE BOARD OF EDUCATION
(Continued from First Page.)

the original sum- leaves us $4,7SO to meet this needed expenditure of $9,9oo. The only recourse, therefore, was to go through the lists and cut out sufficient to come within the limited amount. A list of repairs for thirty-seven different schools amounting to s4,990.60 was au- thorized for those purposes, as desig- mated.
 There are three sections of the school district that should be granted addi- tional grammar school accommodations during this coming year. They are the Strong, the Oak and the alterations necessary to the present high school to make it useful for grammar school pur- poses.
 The Oak street school was found evin- cling signs of decay. It is frame struc- ture of nearly thirty-ive years stand- ing Its replacement with two-story twelve-room modern building, so con- structed in thickness of walls that six rooms could be added by the addition of another story, was recommended. The present equipment does not begin to adequately accommodate. The erec- tion of new building in the Strong district was also advised.
 A stringent rule of the board prevails that the public school buildings of the city cannot be used for private pur- poses, and hence the petition of Will liam Vaber, who desired the use of the buildings for the purpose of conducting German schools during the summer months. was denied.
 Members Jackson and Ullman were to convention of the boards of education to be held in Minneapolis.
 The board went into executive session to consider the matter of heating the new high school building.
 Superintendent Beede reported that at the present time there are 1096 more pupils in the schools than there were at this time last year. They are distrbut- ed In all parts of the city, and there is an urgent need for more accommoda-

tions. It is expected that the conges- ton of the schools next fall will be quite a serious matter
 It is the intention to use the present high school building for grammar school and the building committee was authorized to consult architects and prepare plans for the remodelling of the building so that it may be devoted to the purposes of grammar school. It is the intention to make twelve rooms, and some of the present rooms will be partitioned off.
 A petition signed by very large number of residents of the Ninth ward was read by President Whitney. It was a plea for new school building in that ward somewhere along the line of the Winchester avenue railroad. The principal reason for urging the erection of new building is that at present the children are compelled to cross the tracks of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad at grade, and much danger is incurred. The erection of building in the proposed place would obviate the necessity of expos- ing the children to such danger as crossing tracks at grade. The matter was referred to the building commit tee, with instructions to investigate and advise.
