fact, In all businesses where II Ia
necessary to raise capital In order to
accomplish certain results.
A man would be considered
extremely foolish II he asserted that
the shares and bonds of our large
railroad companies or even our
government bonds should be looked
upon with suspicion because they are
offered for sale to the public at
large. Yet these bonds and shares are
sold to raise money to accomplish
certain objects. Take, for example,
some of the big railroads, like the
Santa Fe and Union Pacific, who are
issuing millions of dollars worth Of
bonds to raise the amount of money
necessary to equip their engines
with oil burners. These bonds are
bought all over the world, yet no
one would dare say that that the in
vestment was suspicious one because
local capital did not take the whole
issue. The United States Steel Trust
at its conception offered its stock to
the general public, and the general
public all over the world subscribed
for 1t. The Russian government
came here to raise $50, 900, 900, yet
1t would seem that there Is sufficient
wealth In Russia to take up such an
amount locally.
1t must be remembered that local
capital has good many calls upon
1t, aud no man cares to put all he
possesses In one thing. He figures
that money we'll scattered Is we'll
protected and he is perfectly right.

different ones, always reserving a few
dollars for some other good PROPOSE
tion that Is bound to come along.
An investor should not, therefore,
jump to the conclusion that because
he has the opportunity offered him
Of investing In good mine, the pro-
position is Of no value simply because
local capital has not yet taken II up.

TO INVESTORS.
Why Shares Are Offered In
Mining Properties.

To many people 1t is hard to
understand why 1t Is necessary to
offer for sale shares Of any good
mining proposition. They seem to
think that local capital should
gobble up aud control all the good
Investments in sight, and because
this Is not done, they seem to feel
that the investment Is not as good
as 1t should be.
That this idea is entirely wrong
a few minutes thought will convince
almost anyone who is open to con
viction. Knowing what an expensive
operation 1t Is to develop mine
properly 1t only seems necessary to
count the number of mines in a
country or district to realize that
millions of dollars are invested there
in development work, and 1t will
not take long to arrive at the
conclusion that there is not local
capital enough to furnish more than
Q very small part Of this sum. It
becomes necessary, therefore, to
attract and interest capital from
other places, for which purpose stock
or shares are sold.
Nor is this mode Of opration con-
fined to mining Investments only.
We find the same thing done In
railroading, in ssthe industrials, in

MARKET REPORTS.
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features of the Days Dealings in All
the Leading Stocks.

NeE York, Jan. 27.-Yesterday's i'm
provqment in speculative sentiment seem
ed to- be maintained, today. but the trad
ing Was at low ebb. The Venezuelan
situation as depressing influence on the
market has been pretty thoroughly elm
mated but this does not prove that any
speculative enthusiasm was held in check
by that influence. Today's total sales of
stocks were little changed from yester-
day. In a few cases there was buying of
stocks on the strength of special develop
mentS, but this demand did not follow a
rise in prices far and had very little SYM
pathetic effect upon the general list. The
firmneSs of the coalerS was based upon
the report of increased December net
earnings by the New Jersey General.
Amalgamated was bought on reports OF
the acquisition by the company of mines
in Scandinavia and on the rise in price
of copper in London A number of low
priced. railroad stocks were lifted. Man
haitian was under pressure of realizing by
those who had bought the stock for the
privilege of subscribing to the stock the
rights for which came off the stock, to-
day The situation in the money and
exchange markets was without apprecia-
bile change. The character of the early
advance in stocks was defined by the
readiness of traders to realize. The sell
ing of the last hour was a proclamation
of WEAKNESS with the attempt to get
prices up The market closed duh and
heavy The bond market was moderately
active and the movement of prices was
irregular. Total sales, par value, 81, 210,
00G. United States bonds were all UNI
changed on the last call.

Spruceby" which appears at the Opera
house, Friday afternoon and evening
will open at the box Office, this morn
ing, at 10 o'clock. The well-known
play was given here, last season, and
gave splendid satisfaction. The Man
chester News of Jan. 10 says:
"Uucle Josh Spruceby" was present
ed to a good house at the Park theatre,
last night, the company opening a
three days engagement. The play is
a clever one and was given in man
ner to elicit frequent bursts of ap-
plause. The play has been seen here
before and so the patrons of the house
were prepared for the sensational saw
mill scene but everyone seemed as
excited and thrilled as upon the first
occasion. A number of specialties were
given in the course of the performance
and were well received.

TOOK A STRAW VOTE.
Interesting Experiment In Restau-
rant.

An advertising agent, representing a
prominent New York magazine, while
on recent western trip, was dining
one evening in Pittsburg restaurant.
While waiting for his order he
glanced over his newspaper and no.
ticed the advertisement of a well
known dyspepsia preparation, Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets; as he himself was
a regular user of the tablets he began
specializing as to how many of the 9TH
er,, travelling men in the dining room
were also friends of the popular rem
edy for Indigestion.
y He says: II counted twenty4three
men at the tables and in the hotel Of
flee l took the trouble to interview
them and was surprised to learn that
nine of the twenty three made prac-
tise of taking one or two Of Stuarts
Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal.
"One of them told me he had suffered
so much from stomach trouble that at
one time he had been obliged to quit
the road, but since using Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets had been entirely free
from indigestion, but he continued
their use, especially while travelling, on
account of irregularity in meals and
because like all travelling men he was
often obliged to eat what he could get
and not always what he wanted.
Another, who looked the picture of
health, said he never ate meal with
out taking Stuart Tablet afterward
because he could eat what he pleased
and when he pleased, without fear of
a sleepless night or any other trouble.
"Still another used them because he
was subject to gas on the stomach,
causing pressure on heart and lungs,
shortness of breath and distress in
chest, which he no longer experienced
since using the tablets regularly.
Another claimed that Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets was the only safe rem
edy he had ever found for sour stom-
ach and acidity, he had formerly used
common soda to relieve the trouble,
but the tablets were much better and
safer to USE"
After smoking, drinking or other ex-
cesses which weaken the digestive or
gans, nothing restores the STOMACH to
healthy, wholesome condition so eff
fectually as Stuart's Tablets.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets contain
the natural digestives. pepsin, diastase,
which every weak stomach lacks, as
well as nux, hydrastin and yellow par
lila, and can be safely relied upon as a
radical cure, for every form of poor
digestion. Sold by druggists every
