Sugar has NOT acted with il .

Sugar has not acted with its customary
buoyancy lately. and the cause is at
tributed to some doubt as to the pas
sage OF the Cuban treaty. It must be
borne in mind, however. that this stock
has had an advance of nearly Is points
within short time. But uotwith-
standing this advance and its present
price, Sugar, as a stock. is worth more
upon merit than almost any stock on
the list, except Peoples Gas.

the docile and drowsy donkey, will be-
gin. an engagement of 8 nights COM
mencing Thursday, April 23d, at the

them. They come here fresh from a
triumphant run of four months at the
st. Nicholas Garden in New York City
where both the press and public be-
slowed on them unrestricted praise
The acts are all practically new to the
country and were imported by Mr.. Bos-
took especially for this show. Some of
the many interesting features which
are specially commendable are, Prof
Arnoldo's group of wild leopards,
iaguars and pumas, whom the Pro-
fessor governs with as much ease as
a chatter does his auto Nine. Barlow
with her lions is one of the most daring
and thrilling acts ever shown.

Manhattan Elevated Railroad employees
was, renewed, today. when support was
forthcoming Manhattan 1t was hoped
that the labor difficulty on the elevated
system could be adjusted without resort
to a strike, and this induced some short
covering in the stock, When it was per-
ceived that the market was to be ex-
empt for the present from the disturb
ance of drop in this stock, opportunity
was taken to start an upward movement.
Early in the day, with the exception of the
good absorption of Missouri Pacific, based
on it's large February earnings, the West
ern and Pacific stocks were inclined to
hang back. The money situation rs con-
spicuously easier and shows largely lin
creased supplies offering in the market.
The declining influence of the Northern
Securities case was indicated by the way
in which an early fall in that stock on
the curb was practically ignored The
market closed active and strong and near
the top level A drop of 10A in American
Telephone, and of in ST. Louis and San
Francisco first preferred was accounted
for by the fact that previous sales dated
back to before the recent violent decline
in the market. The bond market was
rather dull but firm Total sales par val
ne, 81, 415,000.

The members of the committee on
fire department of the city government
are considering the feasibility of pur-
chasing first-class double horse hook
and ladder truck the present year. The
need of such an addition to the fire APP
paratus of the city has long been felt
by the boys of the fire department, and
its purchase has often been urged by
Chief Engineer Kicker and others who
have an interest in the protection of
property in the city. A serviceable
hook and ladder truck would be of
great benefit and might be the means
of saving valuable property. Should a
big fire get under way in some of the
tall buildings on Water street its utility
would be at once recognized. Whether
or not the city will conclude to pur-
chase the same this year has not yet
been determined, but the matter is be-
ing carefully considered by the COM
mittee.

PHOTOGRAPH FREE WITH EVERY
PACKAGE.
Beautiful and Expensive Pictures
Given to Users of Malt Breakfast

AS result of the most liberal offer
ever known, the sale of Malt Breakfast
Food, the original and standard malt
wheat cereal, is increasing rapidly in
this city. Art dealers are puzzled as
10 how carbon photograph that they
would sell fer two or three dollars can
be given with few packages of this
food. The explanation, as given by the
manufacturers, sounds reasonable, as
they say that if they can induce a
family to try Malt Breakfast Food, no
other cereal will ever be used in that
home.
This food is not one of the ready-to
serve fads that are SO lavishly adver-
tised. 1t is real food, good to eat,
delicious and satisfying. AS it's name
implies, it is an honest, simple food,
and when it comes to the table steam
ing hot. its appetizing appearance and
delicious, flavor make the morning meal
a joy and delight
In every package of Malt Breakfast
Food is Il handsome 3x4 carbon photo
graph, While larger photographs are
given in return for coupons from the
packages. ASK your grocer about the
pictures and the Food. He will tell Won
that Malt Breakfast Food is the most
satisfactory of all the cereals he sells
while the photographs are of real value.
Malt breakfast Food is now sold in
full weight, tWo-pound packages, while
the "ready-to-eat" foods come in pack
ages that hold only twelve or fourteen
ounces. One cup of Malt Breakfast
Food to three pints of water is the
right proportion in cooking, and it thus
Soes eight times as far as the ready
cooked foods. "A dollar saved is a dol
lar earned" and you can save good
many dollars by making your morning
meal from Malt Breakfast Food, and
at the same time have the best of all
cereals.
