,rHH OPEN T,IBR ARY SUNDAY.

< THE OPEN LIBRARY SUNDAY.
 To the Editor of the Journal and Courier;
 A correspondent suggests the opening of the public library Sunday.
 There is no reason why every public library in the land should not be open all day Sunday Most of them are. The Boston public library Is one of the most popular resorts in that city on Sunday. Art museums and picture galleries have Sunday hours. A few years ago the Metropolitan Art Museum in New York was opened after a brief campaign, which served merely to call attention of the people to a requirement. which it was the pleasure subsequently, of the curators to give. The public library of all places in the city should have its reading rooms open on Sunday and serve its patrons with books. It if be essential for the officials to have a day In seven, closeNt the library on Monday or have an assistant in charge one day so that the work may be divided.
 Certainly, if the public want the use of the library on Sunday Sunday is the day to keep it open. Library.

LETT AND WHITE CONVICTED
LIFE IMPRISONMENT FOR MAR
 CUNTS ASSASSINS.

Jury's Verdict Supposed to be Com
 promiss-FIrst Conviction in the
 Brosthitt County Hargts-cockrnI
 Fsud, in Which Twenty-seven Lives
 Have Been Lost in the Last Two Years.
 Cynthana, Ky, Aug. 1.-The jury in the case of Curtis Jett and Thomas White. charged with the assassination of James B. Marcum Of Jackson. Ky, this morning returned a verdict of guilty, fixing the punishment of each at life imprisonment. The verdct was re- turned at a time when there were but few persons in the court room. The only attorney present was County At torney Webster. Jett received the ver- dict with comparative indifference and calmness. but White. who apparently has been under a severe strain during the trial, flushed up, and his eyes filled with tears.
 The only question that caused the de- lay, 1t is said, was whether to make the punishment death or life imprisonment.
 Attorneys Blanton and Golden, for the defence, were absent when the jury came into court. and Judge Osborne sent sor them and told them to make their motion for new trial. The mo- tion was thereupon filed, and the court took it under advisement.
 When 1t was announced that the jury had come out a crowd gathered at the court room. but it was quiet and orderly. all the mountain men having gone to their homes.
 Colonel Byrd, who prosecuted the prisoner. said he was disappointed in the case as he had hoped for verdict fixing the death penalty. D. D. Hurst, the father-in-law of Marcum, said that the accused might as well have been tried in Breathitt county as here.
 The case has been on trial almost three weeks. having been begun July 27. At the first trial at Jackson the jury disagreed. and it is believed that the verdict to-day was compromise with a juror opposed to capital punishment
 Captain B. ]. Even and other wit nesses for the commonwealth, who have suffered greatly and were living in fear, of their lives, are greatly relieved. TWenty-seven lives have been lost with in the past two years in the Hargis- Cockrill fei1d in Breathitt county. and this is the first conviction. No arrests or indictments had been made until last May. when the troops were ordered to Jackson to protect the grand jury and afterWard the trial jury and witnesses, Jett is still under indictment charged with killing Town Marshal Cockrll. Jett said last night that the rope had never been made with which to hang him, but he made no remarks to-day.

STOCK MARKET FEATURES.
As Reviewed by the House of Prince
 6 Whitely. &

New York. Aug. 14.-Early London cables reported an irregular market, but later on the news improved, some stocks showing considerable advance. At home the developments are assuming more normal character and the tone of the market is gradually changing to one of greater confidence. The basic conditions, such as crop outlook and large foreign demand at comparatively high prices, the heavy railway traffic and improved physical condition of the different sys- tems and the immense shrinkage in val ues during the past ten months being our securities prominently to the atten- tion of the investing public throughout the world. To-day's course of the market once more shows that there is a better absorbing power. and even if the recent recovery of to 10 per cent. in prices is looked upon by many as too hasty there are still many stocks sell ing lower than when MT. Bryan was a presidential candidate and since that time no one will deny that in every di- rection matters at home have mended. Renewals Of call loans were made at 211s per cent Foreign exchange opened firmer: asking rates were 485.35. In the afternoon they were easier on offerings against stoco purchases. Later rates are 4S5.25@35.
 Wheat retains It's strong position, and the demand for the actual stuff is sim ply wonderful. Speculation is more or less dormant Ruling prices should re- vert savorably 70 producers and the country at large.
 the market seems to us healthy and when the new crops makes its appear ance we think there will be ten buyers for every bale coming in. The winter months are comparatively selling much higher than September and October op- tions.
 The stock market during the closing hour retains its cheefulness. The bank statement tomorrow will make good exhibit, at least from the known move ments up to the present
 There may be some speeialties which still are under cloud. III the main, however. as far as we could learn, the feeting Is and remains better. London on the curb closed strong.
 The tone of our market was strong, with prices at about the best of the day.
 Total sales 955.6OO.

Some months ago, when halt a
dozen or more lines of railroad were
headed for Tonopah, we predicted
that the first line to tap that camp
would be put in by the Southern
Pacific Company. Now that it is a
pretty sure thing that road is to go
into Tonopah shortly, and after the
assertion that it would be built by
the Tonopah Mining Company, comes
the news that the Southern Pacific
Co. is to furnish the rails in consid-
Grafton of large block of stock in
the small corporation. AS the rails
are greatest expense the block of
stock taken by the big concern must
be proporti0nately large.

ChamberIaln's Cough Remedy.

No one who is acquainted with its
good qualities can be surprised at
the great popularity of Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy. 1t not only
cures colds and grip etfectually and
permanently, but prevents these dis
eases from resulting in pneumonia.
1t is also certain cure for Group.
Whooping cough is not dangerous
when this remedy is given. 1t con-
tains no opium or other harmful
substance and may be given as con-
fidently to a baby as to an adult. 1t
is also pleasant to take. When all
of these facts are taken into consid-
GRAFTON it is not surprising that PEG
pie in foreign lands, as well as at
home, esteem this remedy very
highly and very few are willing to
take any other after having once
used it. For sale by NJ. K. Leavitt.

PineQrOve.

Work is progressing favorably on
the big Pinegrove tunnel started
some months ago by Cutting and
Hudgens, and the indications are
very good for the development of a
good big mine. The company does
not expect to get the ledge for sew
eral hundred feet yet, but they will
undoubtedly get into good ground
in less distance than that. There
have been some small sales of stock
on the San Francisco board lately at
prices ranging from 75c to SIC. The
company is not d1sposing of any
more stock than is absolutely neces-
sary to carry on the work of driv-
ing the tunnel, which indicates that
they believe they have a valuable
property, as do great many others
who know anything about it.

The display of fruit, vegetables,
grain, ETC., from this valley at the
Reno Chamber of Commerce is at
tracing some attention, although it
is not yet nearly complete. A few
days ago we received a letter from
the Secretary asking if two car
loads of apples could be procured
here, as sale could probably be made
of them. Those who have apples
for sale will get chance to sell
probably if they will call on M. E.
Leavitt in Yerington, state how
many apples they can furnish, what
the variety is, and how much they
want for them. This should be done
at once. The Secretary also has in.
quired for several carloads of honey
for the eastern market, and has a
purchaser for a bee ranch and stock
of bees if price is right. Information
in regard to these inquiries can be
left at this office or sent to the Reno
Chamber of Commerce and will re
ce1ve attention. We are glad tc
know that Mason Valley is being
looked to for supplies, and it is but
adding proof to the fact that adver
Using pays. IT those who have
apples to dispose of will now get
together and make up a couple oil
carloads of good fruit for shipment
it will be another great advertising
card for this section. The fruit
should be selected and sold at fail
price, which will give the buyers al
| incentive to deal here in the future
