The New York stock Market.

New York, Sept. 80, II a. m.-The
prevailing temper of the speculation this
morning was bullish. The advances in
the railway list were not sensational,
but as a rule, substantial fractions we're
scored above last nights figures. Re-

advancing per cent. and holding the

shown on all concessions.

A Dude Prince.

Berlin, Sept. SO.-Advices from
Potsdam give an alleged explanation Of
the mysterious postponement of the de-
parture of Emperor Williams kinsman,
Prince Frederick Leopold, of Prussia,

proposed to take excessive numbers of
attendants with him, barber and corn
cutters outfit, hundreds of trunks, 800
pairs of shoes, gloves, razors, bottles of
vaseline and quantities of hair wash.
The Russians objected to the transport
ing of these things. Hence the delay.
The prince is said to be a man most
aesthetic in his habits. He has bis bar
Der spend two hours in trimming his
hair every Wednesday and Sunday, and
every Saturday occupies like space of
time in having his finger nails manicured.
He was most reluctant TO exchange these
regular habits for war conditions.

The FATAL accident to fourteen
year-old 10Y who was thrown from q
bicycle in Newport News yesterday
should be warning to reckless youth in
all cities. The boy was speeding along
on hi, way to school when the wheel
struck a stone, throwing the rider with
sufficient force to fracture his skull from
ear to ear. Ii is no uncommon thing
in this city for young people to tempt
Providence by recklessly running bicy-
Giles, and often two children are seen on
one wheel lodging cars and vehicles.
They seem to think everything will gel
out of their way, and are paying but lit
Gle attention to obstacles which may be
in their path. Occasionally serious ac-
cident results as a warning to their fool
hardness.

JAMES CALLAHAN of Des Moines,
Iowa, recently deceased, was evidently
possessed Of more philanthropy than
practical common-sense observation.
In his will he left $40, GOO for the en-
dowment of a house for drunkards'

good motives, it is safe to say that his

C. Boyd Jones, a Methodist minister Of
Frostburg, while returning to his home,
from a revival service which is being

late last night, at lonely place on the

felled the preacher 10 the ground, but
the minister quickly regained his feet,
and, being strong athlete, he proceeded
to defend himself so successfully that he
soon had the highwayman begging for
mercy. Exacting a promise from the
footpad, tina; the latter would be better
man, the minister let him go, and then
went to his home as if nothing unusual
had happened.

WHEN THE Archbishop of Canter'

he declined an invitation TO visit the
Episcopal Theological Seminary, but
half dozen miles from the capital city
aud almost in sight of it. He excused
himself by alleging that his time was
limited and he could not devote a few
hours to visiting the seminary. 1t
seems that the primate has had plenty
of time while in New York, and has
visited the slums of that city in company
with Jacob Riis, chief biographer to the
President; Booker T. Washington, Rev.
NJ. Holden, the ArchbishOp's secretary,
and William J. Schiefiln. They had
luncheon in a Chinatown restaurant.
The party also visited the Police Court
where they were introduced to Magis-
trste Barlow and invited to watch from
the bench the dealing out of legal retri
button to a long line of "drunks." In

FRIDAY EVENING. SEPT. 80 1904
r-.n LEE Of Senator George F. Hoar,

Tup LIFE of Senator George F. Hoar,
which had been ebbiDg for some time,
WAS brought to close shortly after mid
night last night. The deceased had
long been a prominent figure in the Po-
Itical world, he having been a member
If CONGRESS for o7er third Of century.
Senator Hoar, while learned, never pos
sessed the elements ofwhat may be term
cd great man, aud in many respects
was inferior to Sumner who represented
Massachusetts so long in the United
States Senate. Mr.. HOar possessed all
the bitterness of the latter, and at times
affected his hauteur, although it is gen
orally acknowledged he lacked the schol-
arly attainments of his predecessor. The
deceased entered Congress with decid-
cd anti Southern spirit. Like many
Others from the Bay State, he imagined
Southern people resembled the Texan
ranger pictures circulated in the Nor'o'
He, however, in later years underwent
a change in his convictions, and openly
acknowledged that be had been misled
in the matter. He, however, was
member of the electoral commission
which foisted Rutherford b. Hayes on
the country as President in face OF the
fact that Samuel J. Tilden had been
elected to the position. While he often
made long speeches in opposition to the
policy of the party that kept him in the
Senate, he invariably voted with it. The
State of Massachusetts, will receive no
material setback by his death. There
are many ready to jump into his shoes
who doubtless will prove as able to rep
resent the State as was the deceased.
