A Straight Tip.

A prominent New York broker tells
the following story at the expense of a
Philadelphian: Some time ago MI. W.
gave dinner, and at it were several Wall
street operators. W. is always on the
lookout for market tips. As rule, he is
rather cautious in his habits, but that
night he dined bit too freely, and awoke
the next morning in a rather muddled
condition. But he was perfectly clear on
one thing.
Somebody had given him a tip to buy
corn. Who gave him the information,
W. could not recall. he knew nothing
of corn, or any other grain. But he went
ahead and operated in corn with venge-
ance, bought 100000 bushels, and the
price began to climb, then he bought
more. The shorts got scared, ran to
cover, and on the final Jump ". covered
and cleaned up $4,000.
That night he hunted up his guests and
tried to find the man who had given him
such valuable advice, but in vain. W.
was becoming worried. His coachman
drove him home, and as he steppep from
his carriage, his man said:
Excuse me, sir, but did you order
corn? Last night you promised to buy
forty bushels. We're clean out, sir"
He gave the fellow 81 900 bill, saying,
"Buy the corn and keep the change"

A Curioua Ferry.

Captain Hambro, while travelling
among the KAYAKS of Turkestan. dis
covered q curious way Of taking q
heavily laden boat across a broad nv
er. The method consisted in ptltng up
the boat as full as it would hold with
out sinking Of all the persons and all
their baggage that it was desired to
take across. Then the boat was
launched. There were no oars and no
sails. The motive power was supplied
by the horses, the cattle, the sheep and
the goats Of the nomadic and pastoral
people swimming in front and along
side and 30 by degrees that were far
more slow than they were sure towing

Why the Colored Man Moved.
(From the Chicago Tribune.)


Two years ago two men from Chicago
were the guests for a day of an extremely
rich and prominent old man in Memphis.
Their host had been member of Forests
famous calvary during the civil war and
was noted as fre-eater. One afternoon
the old man and his two Northern guests
got on street car together at one of the
principal street corners in Memphis.
1t happened that one side of the street
car was pretty well filled. At one end OF
the other seat half dozen people were
sitting, leaving more than enough room
to accommodate the newcomers. But
midway in this vacant space sat young
and loudly dressed negro man.
Tho young negro looked up as the three
white men entered the car, but made no
sign of moving over so as to leave space
for the shree of them to sit down together.
The old Southerner said nothing. He sat
down beside the negro, put his hand into
his waiscoat pocket and pulled out a
small and dainty penknife. Deliberately
he opened the smallest blade of this knife
about half an inch long-and reaching
over iabbed the negro in the leg with it.
The negro gave yell ofterror rand leaped
from the car. Still calm and deliberate,
the old man closed his knife, put it back
in his waistcoat pocket and, with court
" gesture to his two friends from the
North who were still standing, said:
"Sit down, gentlemen
Nor did he ever again refer to the Incl
dent. As for the two men from the
North they were too greatly astonished
to call attention to it.

A JAPANESE BABY.
Its Place IL Strapped to the Back q
an Older Baby.

lts Place IL Strapped to the Back Of
an Older Baby.
The babies Of all except the richest
japanese are carried about on the back
Of an elder sister or brother from the
time they are a few months old. The
poorer the parents the sooner the baby
is fastened on to the back Of some
elder member Of the family, and it Is
not uncommon in the poorer quarters
Of Japanese city to see q group OF
children six or eight years old playing
in the streets, each Of whom bears a
tiny baby sister or brother fastened
with few straps to its back.
These straps are just sufficient to
prevent the baby from falling to the
ground. leaving the comfort Of its pos
ture entirely to its own exertons. AS
a result the japanese baby early gains
q surprising control of its muscles, and
it is almost impossible to drop even a
tiny child from your arms, so firmly
does it cling on with both arms and
legs.
The dressing Of Japanese baby is
a simple matter. It wears nothing but
miniature kimonos, the number vary
ing with the condition Of the weather.
These garments are fitted one inside
the other before they are put on. Then
they are laid down on the floor. and
baby is laid into them. They are long
enough to cover the baby's feet, and
the sleeves are also long enough to
cover the hands. Practically there is
only one garment, and the process OF
dressing a Japanese baby takes but
two or three minutes Of its mothers S

told the rector the members OF the
choir were acting outrageousiy. The
rector walked up to the pew, drew
down the curtain with jerk and e1-

Of the congregation.
Then DR.. Rainsford resumed his SER

look down the main aisle, and there,
walking in solemn procession, were a
hen and dozen chicks. To crown 1t
all, when the sexton tried to drive
them out he was 80 drunk he fell right

JAPS TAKE FORT
After An All Day Assault
They Capture Erlung
at Port Arthur.

TOXIC, Dec 20, 1904, F. M.-The
Japanese forces besieging Port Arthur
last night captured the Erhlung (or Url-
ung) fort.
The attack lasted all day. At 10 o'clock
in the morning the Japanese exploded
mine. which destroyed the parapet of the
fort. An assault was then made, and the
attack was kept up in a series of fierce
charges until evening. The Russians re-
sisted stubbornly At 7.20 P. M. the
Ninth Division of Gen. Nogi's army
made successful charge, and the entire
Erhlung fort fell into the hands Of the
japanese.
The newspapers of Toxic say that the
Japanese right, following the capture of
Talinkatun, is planning early operations
against the ''new city, of Port Arthur.

WHO OWNS THE LOTS !?
Residents of Oak and Forrest
Streets Want the Sidewalks
Cleaned.

People who are obliged to walk
through Oak street. between Bergen and
jackson avenues are bitterly complaining
of the condition of the sidewalks espec-
tally of the south side, from which the
snow has not been removed. After being
thawed by rain the snow has frozen and
people are obliged to wear rubbers or all
most crawl past a long vacant LOT. which
extends to Forrest street which is as bad.
An ordinance is in effect providing that
in cases where snow is not removed from
sidewalks and the owners of the property
abutting thereon cannot be found or their
names ascertained the city shall remove
the snow therefrom and make the cost
tax lien on the property. The police
department has been assisting the Street
and Water Department in this matter
and at least two hundred persons have
been hailed into the police courts during
the past two weeks and warned against
the violation of the ordinance. Some
have been fined.
