STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York. April S0.--Some hopes
were entertained that yesterdays
stock market was preliminary to a
better movement of prices to-day ow-
ing to the fact that the professional
traders had refrained from taking
their profits on the days rise before
going home. But the first half hour
Of to-day's market demonstrated that
that operation had been simply defer

The effort Of the professionals 70 take

DRY GOODS.

New York, April SO.-In dry goods to-
day no material improvement is to be
noted in the buying. Reports from To-
cal retailers state that they are not
as busy as might be expected for this
time of year. With cotton at it's pres
ent level there is little warrant for
manufacturers to shade prices. The
comparative scarcity of raw material
is another factor which adds to the
strength of sellers.

Vim. Dondaro and Victor

Brinso is Knitted.

VIM. Dundaro met Victor Brinso
Friday morning in front Of the Roma
saloon on Virginia street, Reno, and
the two went to scrapping in vicious
manner Immediately.
When other Italians interfered and
pulled the men apart Brinso was short
the upper part of his left ear and had a
couple of stabs from a pocket knife.
One of the cuts was on his side just
below the ribs and the other was on
the left side back and above the hip
bone.
The men were evidently very angry
and it took two or three to hold Dom
daro.
Dondaro was taken to Jail but was
released shortly afterward on $1,000
bail given by his partner, Louis Del
Piazzi and Spiro Francovich.
Dondaro refused to talk on the mat
ter, but as far as could be learned
the trouble started over family mis-
understanding and has been brewing
for some time.
Dondero is a man Of good habits
and q partner of Louis Del Piazza in
the mining property they own in Oling-
house canyon.
Brinso died of his wounds yesterday.
He was we'll known here. having re-
sided in this vicinity for several years,
and was we'll liked by all his associates.
His sisters, Mrs. John Monte and Mrs.
D. Ceresola, were at his deathbed and
to them the DISPATCH extends its
sympathy.
Dondaro has been rearested on a
charge of murder.

SEED CORN.

One thing that can not be too earnestly
urged upon farmers is the necessity Of
procuring thoroughly good, sound seed
corn says writer in Farm and F'ireside.
Ii is better to pay as high as 81 a bushel
for thoroughly good seed of a variety
that is adapted to your locality than to
accept as gift something that is in the
least doubtful in terminating or yielding
qualities. 1 have known farmers to drive
ten miles to get seed corn of doubtful
qualities at 80 cents bushel rather than
pay dollar a bushel for flrst-class seed
at a neighbours. 1 well remember the
sound berating one of my neighbors once
gave another because he would not sell
him at market price seed corn which he
had carefully selected in the fall and kept
in the best manner over winter. Rather
than pay Sc for seed corn enough for six
teen acres, he picked it out of a neigh
boris crib at 10 cents a bushel over mar
ket price, and then crowed vociferously
over his bargain. Planting was delayed
by rains until quite late in the season,
and then about one-third of the bar
gain corn terminated 1t was a large,
late variety. and failed to come anywhere
near maturing before frost, and the crop
was a complete failure. For 81 more than
he paid for the seed he planted he would
have had a good stand and a good yield
of sound corn. In this matter, above all
others, a farmer cannot be too careful.
If for any reason he failed to save corn
for seed last fall, he should now lose no
time in procuring a supply from some
thoroughly reliable source. If it must
be procured of a scotsman, II should be
then one can judge about what he is get
ting. / would much prefer to buy of
some reliable farmer near by if it can be
done. If one desires to change to an
other variety, it is best to buy about a
bushel of it and grow II in a field by
itself By doing this one can judge
whether II is pure and satisfactory or not.
choicest all the seed he needs for another
year. 1 have always advised the buying
of only small lots of seed of improved"
varieties that one knows nothing about.
If ii proves good one has all the seed
he will need for another year: while If
it is not better or not as good as the
variety he has, the loss is very small. I
rich soil will give better yield on thin
ner or lighter soil the first season it is
planted than afterward. and 1 believe it
will pay farmers whose land is some
what run down or naturally thin to buy
their seed from some one whose soil is
strong and rich
