pronounciatfon is by reliance upon the carat best very inaccurate and un- certain procedure.
 The publication in 1902 of Professor Scriptures Elements of Experimental Phonetics' a large and exhaustive manual of the whole subject, placed him a. once in the position of a foremost authority upon this new and very prom ising field. About one year ago he re- ceived considerable grant of money from the Carnegie institute of Washing ton which enabled him to prosecute his researches with increased facility. Se- curing leave of absence from his work at Yale Professor Scripture went to- Germany last spring in order to obtain skilled assistance at moderate compen- sation for the measurement and compu- tation of his large collection of speech curves. He spent six months at Mu- nich and by employing considerable number of helpers was able to accomu- late large mass of data concerning the phenomena of the voice. With the open ing of the winter semester he went to Berlin where, as already mentioned, he has been most warmly welcomed. Pro- sessor Stumpf, director of the psycho- logical laboratory at Berlin who was just on the point of sending an order to Yale for some of Professor Scriptures apparatus, suggested that the work in phonetics be continued at his laboratory this winter. Apparatus was set up and several students have been assigned to made their theses for the doctors degree upon its results. No work of the kind has hitherto been carried on at Berlin, but the new subject is arousing great interest and will probably be made a permanent feature at the university.
 In view Of the fact that German scientists are decidedly conservative, as a rule. in estimating the achievements os their American colleagues, the un- usual interest manifested at Berlin in Professor Scriptures Investigations may we'll be matter of pride to aca- demic circles throughout this country, and particularly at Yale, when Profes- sor Scripture has been at the head of the psychological laboratory for so many years.

 neYal rates for call loans were gener- ally marked down this morning. Some unWary borrowers were apparently in hope that still lower rates would pre- vail. Late in the day when they at- tempted to supply their needs and when the active speculation had already made large inroads upon the supply the rate for call loans was bid up to per cent. with the urgent demands of these be- lated borrowers.
 The furry in call money. doubtless was potential influence on the reac- ton in stocks. The optimistic view of the business and finances of the eoun- try taken by the secretary of the treas ury was a cheering influence. There can be no doubt that confidence has been greatly increased in the future financial security of the country by the developments in the exchange market. indicating the accumulation of large re- serve credits abroad beyond those being met by the current imports of gold.
 Business in bonds was principally in speculative issues in which the price movement was irregular. Total sales par value were s4,535,000.

YALE PROFESSOR HONORED
E. ". SCRIPTURE ASKED TO LEC- sTUREAT UNIVERSITY OF BERLIN

Progress of His Researches fn Experi-
 mental Phonstics-wor Being car-
 ried on at Berlin This < inier.
 News has just been received in New Haven of the distinguished recognition recently accorded at the famous uni- versity of Berlin to member of the Yale faculty. Professor Edward w. Scripture, director Of the Yale psycho- logical laboratory, who is now in Ger many upon leave-of absence (not hav- ing resigned as was enormously re- ported some time agol has been invited to deliver a special course of lectures at Berlin, before professors and; stu dents, upoE experimental phonetics, the line of research which is chiefly occupy ing his attention at present. Professor Scripture has also been urged to de- liver an address before the Berlin Academy of Sciences, a learned society comprising all the greatest savants at the German capital.
 Since experimental phonetics is a branch of science of very recent origin and since Professor Scripture has so largely contributed towards it's estab- lishment few words conceiving the nature of It's problems and methods may not be out of place. Professor Scriptures interest in the psychology of speech. that is, the study of spoken words, their pitch, infection rhythm, and order of arrangement as indicative 4s,f# z, Eont, ag shades of meaning in ideas, led him some six or eight years ago to under take an exhaustive Investigation of the mechanism of speech. His object was to determine by careful analysis of the complex sound-waves recorded on photograph cylinders and gramaphone plates precisely what are the acoustic and physiological conditions underlying all differences of pronunciation.
 To this end he devised certain most delicate pieces of apparatus which by system of levers connected with a fine metal point travelling over the indenta- tions of the wax cylinder or plate, trace on smoked paper highly magnified record of each slightest impression. Every sound-wave leaves it's impress sion upon the cylinder and by a long process of measurement and computa- tion of the magnified curves traced it is possible to determine precisely what sounds are involved.
 The value of such an investigation, not only for an understanding of the physiological and psychological pro- cessses underlying speech but also as a means of detecting the differences be- tween the sounds characteristic of va- rious dialects and languages, is widely recognized by specialists in physiology psychology and language. Without such careful experimental methods the only way to determine differences in

YEsqEKDAY's STOCK MARKET.

The 'v~ra~e Lcve' If price. FalIA.
 New York, Dec. s.-The bull move ment in stocks continued in force dur ing the early stages of to-day's stock market but the precipitate course of the advance overran the market and reac- tion followed which carried the average level of prices below last night. The closing was easy and without recovery. The momentum of the previous advance and the accretion natural to any specu- lative movement after a given amount of progress, seemed to be the principal clements of the strength. During the morning there was more appearance of animation and variety in the dealings than at any time heretofore. Stocks of all classes were transferred in enor- nous blocks and at rapidly rising prices. This great activity caused scepticism about the market and in- duced professional traders, watchful for signs of a turn, to put out short lines. When the market paused after the first reaction and then started up- wards again, the demand from these uncovered shorts helped the new ad- vance. From the outset, enormous sales to realize were manifest in Brook lyn Transit, which was a conspicuous figure in last weeks advance. Amal- gamated Copper fared better, adding a point to yesterdays five point rise be- fore 1t was seriously affected by realiz- ing. The sympathetic effect of strength in copper stocks generally in home and foreign securities markets and a vio- lent advance in raw copper in London helped this stock. It dropped back sub sequently S-S and closed at net loss of 1 1-&, with decided effect upon specu- lative sentiment generally. The failure of United States Steel preferred to hold it's 1 1-2 point advance was another strong influence in the reaction. Re- ports of difficulties made by employees over proposed reductions in wages and runlors of closing down of important mills also affected this stock. 1t be- came known this morning that gold was taken in London yesterday for &C., count of Chicago and New Orleans to the extent of three-quarters of a mill lion dollars and additional engagements were made to-day of s500,o0o.

DELIGHTFUL PLEASURE TRIPS

DELIGHTFUL PLEASURE TRIPS
 The many delightful cruises to tropi- cal climates which the Hamburg -Aher- ican Line arranges every mid-winter, must have been the result of a realiza- ton of that restless spirit which comes over men with the change of the sea- sons, when sunny lands beckon us away from raw winds. For the last fifteen years this company has successfully catered to those persons who want to escape the severity of the wintr climate in this latitude, or who have the leisure and means to enjoy a change of scene and surroundings.
 An ideal method of visiting foreign shores is afforded by these cruises, and those arranged for this winter offer a greater variety and more complete combinations than heretofore provided. The trips planned cover not only the West Indies, with visits to all the prin- cipal islands in that beautiful archipel- ago, and with cruises taking in Venez- uela, Curacao, Nassau and Bermuda, but also an extensive excursion over the sunny waters of the Mediterranean to all the notable and interesting places in south Europe, northern Africa, the Ori- ent and the Holy, Land, to be followed next fall by a cruise around the world. But it is the winter cruises to summer climes which possess the most popular interest at this time of the year. The first trip from this port is arranged for early next month, the fine twin-screw steamer "Prinzessin Victoria Luise' sailing for St. Thomas, San Juan, Porto Rico, Fort de France and St. Pierre, Martinique; Port of Spain in Trinidad. for the purpose of visiting the La Brea pitch lakes; Curacao; Kingstow, Jamai- ca; Santiago and Havana, Cuba; and Nassau, N.

Welded THE SIXTH TIME.
Maccn Woman Has Already Buried
Five

Macon, Ga, Aug. 1S-Within the
new limits of Macon resides a woman
who has buried five husbands and is
now the bride Of the sixth man she
has promised to honor and obey.
When the groom entered the home
of the bride a few days ago he became
the stepfather of five daughters and
the stepgrandfather of two more But
peculiar feature of his stepchildren
is the fact that no two of them are
sisters.
BY each former marriage the mother
gave birth to one daughter and when
her last husband passed away the
mother found herself the guardian and
sole support of Eve children each
being the half sister of the other and
each bearing a different surname.
One of the daughters has closely
intimated the mother as far IA she
has gone and too , Q too. has two
husbanls, each husb And being the
father of one of her twHthildren. The
last husband is a hard working me-
chanic. while his bride and each of
the daughters are hard working and
economical. No wolf has ever been
at the door of that neatly kept cot
