yesterdays STOCK MARKET
Strength aud Activity Developed Be-
fure CLOSE Of Day.

lure Chose OF Day.
New York, Feb. S.-The professional
element tested the apathetic condition
of the stock market to-day and devel-
Oped some show of strength and ac-
tivity before the close of the day.
There was a very meagre outside fol-
| lowing and very little news on which
to base the movement. The reaction
airy tendency of the market during the
morning was dormant. The movement
in the Wabash securities led the way
from the dullness of speculation. They
advanced slightly at the opening on
/ the strength of news from Pittsburg
that the franchise for the company's
entrance to the city had been favora-
! bly, acted upon by the city council, but
they fell back near the noon hour but
were again strong later in the after
noon. One of the features of the day
was the weakness in New York Cen
trail. This was mainly caused by
traders campaign, led by the selling of
Pennsylvania the day previously.
Traders sold New York Central and
bought Pennsylvania to-day. The ILL
ness of the king of England was an
! influence in the early dullness as was
the reewed hitch in the Venezuelan ne
gotiations. The December statement Of
the Pennsylvania lines had rather
depressing effect. Sterling exchange
was quite ominously strong and it was
said that the freight blockade and the
cutting of grain movement had result
ed in a scarcity of grain bills in the
exchange market. But the prevailing
! ease Of money is an inducement to bor
rowers from foreigners to pay off ma
turing obligations abroad The ex-
change market eased slightly at the
close The growing plenty of loanable
funds was probably the basis for the
attempt to advance prices of stocks.
The rate for call loans fell below 8
per cent. during the day. The state of
ease is due in large part to the deter
mined quietude of the speculation. 1t
is manifest also that the powers in the
money world have in view building up
their cash resources and guarding
against the return of any such over
extended condition Of credits as that
which disquieted the country last fall.
The proposition of the clearing house
authorities to require per cent. re-
serve fund by the trust companies,
with progressive increase over future
periods is in line with this policy. A
number of the stocks were conspicuous
ly strong in to-day's market. The
advancing tendency Of the copper, the
measures to consolidated the lead in
terests, the governmental measures
which are discussed for the improve
ment of the silver situation and the
extraordinary activity in the iron trade
| combined to form the basis for this
movement which included Anaconda,
American Smelling, National Lead
and, later in the day United States
Steel and the independent iron and
steel companies. Sloss Sheffield Steel
made an unexplained dip of 2 ga with
a substantial recovery. The market
closed rather irregular.
Wabash debenture BIS overshadowed
the bond market, which was otherwise
| irregular. Total sales par value S.

neighbot' identically the same thing

"See here, O., you charged me 81

II did," replied the jeweler.
And" continued the farmer, "you
sold my neighbor pair just like them

That's all so. But you paid me

ORIGIN OF WEEPING WILLOWS

4
Although history records the fact
that George Washington, the father Of
his country, was destructive in his
youth and decreased the cherry crop Of
Virginia by chopping down one of his
fathers trees, q relative of mis- by mar
riage-his stepson-is entitled to the
eredit of having planted the first
weeping willow tree in this country.
It was merely . twig brought from
England and fell into the hands Of
young Gusts, who, thinking 1t might
grow. planted it at Alb ingdon, q few
miles from Mount Vernon. 1t was
this way; Young Gusts, as a member
Of washington's military family,
sometimes carried messages under q
Gag between the belligerent command
ers. In this service he became &C.
quainted with a Young British officer
who, like others, had come over with
the impression tnat tne repelilon
would be speedily crushed out and
that he would then settle on the con.
fiscated lands of the rebels. He had
even brought twig from the weeping
willow near Pope's villa at Twicken
ham, carefully wrapped in oiled silk.
As his vision of a castle in America
faded away he gave twig to John
Parke Gusts, who, on his return to
Abingdon in the spring, planted it
near his house. 1t grew and four
ished. Just how it multiplied may be
noted from one end Of the country to
the other.

NEVER LEAVES BED.

Though he is in perfect health, Bar
on Ortiel, a wealthy Russian noble
man, has not left his bed even for one
half hour during the last ten years.
He claims that in order to remain in
good health one must sedulously re-
frain from taking any kind Of physical
exercise, and that his own excellent
health during the last decade is due
to the fact that he has not exerted
his body in any way. On the other

and therefore be spends much Of his

stewards about the management Of his

During the winter, when there is so
much mud, we are not disposed to
think much OF the dust Of the hot
months, but it will be here as usual
this year, just as surely as watermel,
ons or dog days. Last year there was
q project for sprinkling some Of the
streets, but it went by the board.
Something happened to III. 1t has
never been heard of since, but it ought
to be raked out from the archives and
sprung again. The central part of the
city especially needs sprintiing. II
needs it because it will prevent dust,
will cool the atmosphere and act as q
restraint on the dissemination of di-
sease which is extensively carried in
dust. Besides, street sprinkling
would save the streets and reduce the
repairs on them to such an extent that
the sprinklipg would soon pay for it,
self. Many cities, smaller as we'll as
larger than Psducah, sprinkle the
streets during the summer, and there
is no reason why the cost of It should
not at least be investigated here.

THE WEATHER.
The weather forecast for Kentucky
is: Fair tonight and Thursday.
Warmer Thursday.

The mayor of st. Louis evidently
does not appreciate the work OF Dis
trict Attorney Folk, which has not
added very materially to the reputa-
tion of the Future Great. He gave a
banquet to President Francis, Of the
exposition, who has just returned
from Europe, and one of the few pub
lilo men sighted was the district at
torney. The mayor said in his address
Of welcome: "You gentlemen have
been selected as my guests tonight, for
the reason that you represent all that
is progressive and essential in the for
nation and maintenance of this city,
of which we are all so proud.
Through you, IS the official repre-
sentatives of the social, commercial,
educational and other Organizations Of
this city, consider the entire COM
munity is now represented within this
limited space.
As it seems plain the district attor-
ney, who exposed the boodlers, is not
considered one of the above by the
head of the city. the result has been
something of political sensation in
st. Louis. 4..

IDENTIFY sprung up in st. Louis. With
in the past two days the papers have
had occasion to mention the fact that
one man was picked up, taken to the
hospital aud treated for alcoholism"
and after he died it was discovered
that one whole side was crushed. The
following day man was taken to an
other hospital and his case was dag
nosed "apoplexy." He soon died and
it was found that his skull had been
fractured. At this rate the new school
seems to be fiourishing.

In France q novel method OF catch.
ing Ash Is being tested by anglers. A
tiny mirror Is attached to the line near
the baited hook. The assumption Is
that a fish, when Il sees itself in the
mirror. will conclude that some other
fsh is trying to carry on the bait. and
will make haste to secure the tempt
ing morsel for itself. the result being
that II will speedily be caught on the
relentless hook. From experiments
which have been made there seems
TO be some foundation for this rs.
sumption. At any rate. some anglers
say that they catch more hsh when
they use the little mirror than they
ever caught before.

During his travelling about and afterwards his campaign up- on his claim, he encountered much bad water, which. together with the severe heat, gave him vsry severe diarheea which seemed almost impossible to check, and along in June the case be- came so bad he expected to die. One day one of his neighbors brought him one small bottle of Chamberlain's Col ic and Diarrhoea Remedy as a last hope.

SE Sharp, the famous ore salting case, yesterday. The entire morning was spent getting a jury, and up to i o'clock only thrse witnesses. had been examined. M.: c, Burns. the, ore pur chaser for the Val Verde shelter, Clayton the foreman. and SmalIey the sampler The case has had attracted widespread attention on account Of the prominence of the parties to the action and the former trial This case was brought up bfore the grand jury last March, and an indictment was returned against the men. The jury in the district court disagreed.
 The story of the case is familiar with nearly every mining man in the territory. Early last November the defendants, Messrs. Grove and Sharpe, leased the Grubb property in the Hassayampa district. There was con siderable ore on the dump, and the lessees took out enough more to make shipment of twenty-three tens to the Val Verde smelter. A sample was taken of the shipment at the smelter and payment for the ore was made by draft, amounting to about s2,30O. Fol lowing the settlement for the ore the defendants came to Prescott and after remaining here for week CT ten days started for Colorado. At the smeIteT | the ore was sampled, and or accouni of the low assay from the second sam | pie the officials came to the corclu- sion that the ore had bser sa ted. A warrant was immediately sworn out against the men, and police officers were put on their trail. The men were overhauled at La Junta and brought back. At the preliminary ex- animation they were held over to the grand jury.
 The case was presented to the jury today.
