r YESTERDAY'S STOCK MARKET;
Another Heavy Selling Movement.

Another Heavy Selling Movement.
 New York, April S.-There was an- other heavy selling movement in the stock market this morning, which ap- parently over-reached the mark judg- ing from the scramble by the shorts to cover during the last hour when the supply of stocks had become scarce. This led to lively rally and a general recovery of prices to above last nights level. The rally was not we'll held, however, owing to the evidence of re- newed realizing and the satisfaction of the more urgent demand from the shorts. As a result the closing was easy and below the top level on the rally. The appreciable relaxation of the tension in the money market and a confidence that the factors at work would bring still further relief next week were the dominant influences in the rally, The morning selling was pri- narily due to the bad influence of 8 violent break in Southern Pacific to 55 1-4, which aroused fears for the po- sition of the pool. The apparently end- less stream of liquidation in Pennsyl- vania was also turned into the market afresh. carrying the price to new low level on the movement at 135. The fact that the Southern Pacific books closed tonight for the annual meeting indi- catch the ending of the struggle for rpDrpSpnt q finn af fhof Tho demand for the stock is likely to be affected as a consequence. It's move ment became very feverish in the late dealings during the rall yin the mar ket and in its rise to 60 1-2 there were several wide price changes. A rumor found currency at the same time that 8 prominent financier had been induced to adjust the difference amongst the Southern Pacific shareholderh. The feverish relapse in the stock sufficiently indicated the scepticism with which this rumor was received. The notable feature in the late strength was Brook lyn Transit. which was lifted 3~S over last night. The movement was attrib- uted to the prospect of the usual sum- mer increase in traffic. In the early decline Amalgamated Copper weakened on the slump in the London copper market and a further offering down Of the metal on the local metal exchange

fisherman. And it is in absurdly bad
 taste 10 doubt the word of man like
 Mr. Brown, the landmark of Columbia
 reservoir, who weighed the Leach fish. We have known Mir. Brown for many
 years and we have never yet caught
 him in a lie;-althOugh it must be ad- mitted that at times We have him under suspicion. Mir Brown may possibly, have overestimated the weighed of the fish. Perhaps somebody pulled down on the scales or perhaps Mir. Browns glasses fell off at the critical moment; perhaps his whiskers became tangled up in the scales-a hundred things may have happened. But We will say this for Mir. Brown. He has weighed fish for ua a good many times and We always found him a mighty satisfactory weigher.
 Speaking of pickerel, the biggest one we ever got was on Columbia reservoir, through the ice, Sun-that is to say, Saturday. We thought he weighed a ton, but he showed only eight pounds upon his own scales. By the time we got to Willimantic he had shrunk to about a pound and a half, and after placing him in the oven and then put ting him on the table, inside of ten minutes he shrunk to three quarters of an ounce. This shows how fish will shrink under certain conditions.
 It is interesting at times to examine the contents of the stomach of a fish. In the stomach of this pickerel we spoke of We found no reference to Jim" Seaton, except memorandum, reading: 'Jim's' cold weather stories beat his fish stories." In the stomach also was a locket containing the pictures of the new trustees at Storrs-Charles 4. Cap en and L. J. Storrs; a pass over the lines of the Willimantic Traction Com pany, and copy of the Boomerang. There was also a roster of the ''Veneral Club can of Rockers bug extermi- nator," lock of hair from the head of ex-Councilman Charles H. Webster, a copy of the poem, Beautiful Snow," and a plan of the proposed new bridge across the Wilimantic River.
 But speaking of fish, as Historian
 Parkhurst of Scotland says Twill soon be time to drown worms in trout brook" The biggest trout we never caught lives in deep hole out Andover way, not a thousand miles from the paper mill, at the station. He is a corker. We have had hold of him twice
 in seven years. but couldn't hold him. He lives in this hole, under the bank, below the rocks, over which the water rushes and plunges and roars and fills the air with spray, which makes spangles in the sunshine. There he turks beneath the overhanging bank, upon the extreme edge of which stands
 the old tree. with it's roots penetrating the water to find solid Judgment in the ground below.
 Now you can go and try and get him. But you won't You can steal carefully above the hole and let your fat worm float down into the hole-and he may jump for it and swallow it. But you can't get him. He will simply flash back under the roots of the big tree, take turn or two of the line about a root, shake his head-and snap the line and there you are.
 We have had hold of him and so has the Rev. MT. Free. who put us on to him, and so have others, but the old fel- low still defies capture, as he has for years. Journal.

JONATHAN EDWARDS TEN SIS
 TIERS

As the minds of the ten daughters began to unfold, and as there were no schools to send them to, the Rev. Tim othy Edwards undertook to train them himself. He did not, stop to inquire whether co-educating his girls right along with the fitting -for-college stu- dents would lead to atrophy of the muscles, or of the affections, but just did it. He had a school, with 8 high standard, beneath his own roof. Har- ward and Yale colleges accepted MT
 Edwards students without examina- 'tion; and that he held his girls to the same standard is proved by the fact that when called away from home, as he often was in his capacity of emi- nent divine, he left the instruction in Latin and Greek to his daughters, and particularly directs that they shall not fail to hear the recitations of the young men, in the letters that he sends back
 In his account book he records every days instruction to these young men,
 which is paid for at the rate of three shillings a week, and makes note of the time given to them by his daughters
 for we may be sure that the money value of these services by the co-edu- cated ten was not ignored by them. Among the credits in his account book is a meforandum of a shilling paid by one North to my daughter Mary for covering a fan, and there are other similar entries. That a knowledge of Latin and Greek had not eradicated the fondness for distinctively feminine work is shown by the fact that speci- mems of Miss Mary's enbroidery-a, scarf, an apron, and pair of slippers now owned by the Connecticut Histori-

 BIG COFFTNs FOR THE CHINESE

An undertaken whose patronage street was talking the other day of the experiences which his calling develops from time to time.
 ''It is curious ,'' he said, ''that the littlest people | am called upon to bury require the biggest collins. By littlest, I mean the littlest as a race-in other words, the Chinese, I suppose I have officiated at more Chinese funerals than any other undertaken in the Quaker City, and never yet have furnished a Chinaman with a coffin that was not several sizes too big for him. Whether their religion requires this loose fit am not prepared to say, but certain it is that bagginess is a virture in their collins, just as it is in their blouses and trousers, and that every properly con- stituted Chinaman selects his last house as roomy as possible. Take man who is 5 feet inches high, and of pro- portionate girth, for example. Natur- ally 8 fellow of that size could never cut much of splurge in life, yet when he comes to die he takes up as much room as giant. Not one inch less than six and one-half or seven feet will satis- fy for the length of his coffin, the width must be three feet. the depth over three feet, and the walls of his coffin at least two inches thick. These dimensions, mind you, are for an undersized man. For Chinaman of the regulation Occidental proportions the size of his coffin increases in direct ratio to his own stature and bulk, and the conse- quence is that at some of my Chinese funerals 1t seems as if I were burying treasure chests instead of receptacles for dead humanity. y."-Philadelphia Telegraph.

K|HE| PLAN
IS ADOPTED
The Stockholders
of Haiku and
Paia Wait.
Proposal to Sell Land
and Water to Pay
| off Debt.
Plan Would Put Kihei in Position
of Being a Profitable
Enterprise.

BY the unanimous vote of large
majority Of the stockholders of the XII
hei Plantation Co., at a meeting held
in Alexander & Baldwin's offices YES
terday, the plan to place the company
upon a new and substantial footing was
adopted.
Meetings of stockholders of Haiku
and Paia plantations, which are neces-
sary parties to the scheme, were held
afterward to consider the same subject.
They. however, wished time to investi-
gate further and adjourned until the
21st inst.
1t is proposed in the plan that Kihei
sell the 5000 acres of it's lands that
lie above the 450-foot level, also it's wa
ter rights in Koolau, for $3.50, 900 in
cash. The water privilege consists of
two-ninths of the water to be carried
in the Koolau ditch now under con-
struction. Five companies are to be in
corporated to become the purchasers
of the land and water mentioned and
these, together with Haiku and Paia,
are to agree to sell to Kihei, for a term
| of forty-five years, all of their surplus
waters at the rate of s. a million gal
Ions.
| The corporations to be formed are
named respectively the Kalialinui, the
Pulehu, the Kula, the Makawao and
the Kailua plantation companies, linn
tied, and each is to contribute 800, 900
to the purchase fund while acquiring
1000 acres of the land, which is the
1 limit allowed to corporations under the
Organic Act. Their capital stock will
be held by individuals, most, if not all
of whom, are connected with Alexander
& Baldwin.
| First, the money will be applied to
the redemption of the s35O,O0O of Kihei
bonds that have been sold and. sec
ondly, to repay the advances made by
Alexander & Baldwin, amounting to
date to about 100000 net.
| The arrangement will leave Kihei
with about $500 acres of land below
the 450-foot level, capable of being irri-
gated by its present pumping plants
and its other sources of water, includ-
| ing it's right for forty-five years to
the surplus water from the seven cor
porations with which it makes con-
tracts, this right including three reser-
voir sites reserved out of the land sold,
aggregating an area of about f1fty-four
acres, and capable of providing reser-
voir capacity for about 125.OOO,OOO gall
Ions.
