to stimulate any advance in stock
prices. The engagement of gold al
ready made for export were added to
by only $750,000, of which 100000 was
for Thursday. But this limitation was
due to the exhaustion of the SUBJ
treasury's supply of gold bars and the
postponement of $2,5OO,OOO of the ship
ment intended for Tuesday until
Thursday was due to the same cause.
London Money Plentiful.
The tone of the foreign exchange
market showed no signs of relaxation
of the pressure upon this center for
gold. London, however, reported such
plethoric condition of money that
funds We're practically unlendable, with
the call loan rate down to 1 per cent.
and two and three months discounts
at 2 per cent. Call loans in this mar
ket advanced and the time money mar
ket was tirmer. This course of events
would lead shortly to borrowing on
sterling bills in New York with a
resulting deferment of gold remit
tances. Railroad earnings reports of
traffic officials and a reduction in the
price of copper failed to offer any
help to the stock market and bank
ing failure in Macon had a disturbing
effect upon sentiment.
Steel Made Advance.
United States Steel preferred again
asserted it's influence on the market
by it's late advance of a point, with
a rally in the general list. The clos
ing, however, was irregular.

New York, May 16.-The stock mar
bet was under pressure again to-day
and prices gravitated to a lower level
IN an irregular way without much re-
distance. The depressing causes were
tho quite general distrust and hesita-
.;on effected in the business world and
che rapid changes taking place in the
resources of the money market by
reason of the heavy gold outgo. The
snecial aggravating cause was the re-
newal of the liquidation in the Erie
stocks. with acute weakness resulting.
The severe decline in the earnings re-
Dorted by that system gives rise to
.xnressed fears for the maintenance
of the dividend on the first preferred
stock
Some sympathetic effect was pro-
duced on other stocks in the coal group.

with poor quarterly statement of

ernmental proceedings against the coal
combination in contemplation are an
influence on the group. This special
weakness rather more than offset the
sustaining influence of the firmer tone
for United States Steel preferred.
The support of this stock carried it
W at a large fraction early and had
cheering effect in the general mar
ket. The weakness became fairly gem
eral in the mid-session trading, the
grain and cotton carriers being especi-
ally effected. The selling of these
stocks was based apparently on the
weather conditions in the crop regions.

RECKLEs hoy AREsTED.

Wallace Heron. a 14-year-old white
boy, employed in the Office of Attorney
Charles J. Hayden, in the Prudential
building, Atlanta, was required to give
bond by Judge Broyles, of the Police
Court, to answer the charge of shoot
ing Thompson Maddox, a negro boy,
with a parlor rifle. Young Heron, it
appears, when having nothing else to
do has been amusing himself by shoot
dag holes through the windows of
buildings in the vicinity of the Pru-
Dental. This way of killing time be-
coming monotonous, he switched off
and made a target out of a negro boy
passing along the street below. The
boy when shot looked up and around
him, but could not find who was do
ing the shooting. People In the Vicin-
ity interested themselves in the matter
and reported the case to the city de-
tectives, who solved the mystery by
arresting Heron. The boy admitted
his guilt in court. He said that shoot
ing the boy was accidental, and that
he had done so while amusing himself
breaking the glasses in windows. e

Duty, Then Pleasure.

Mr.. Nasmyth, the inventor Of the
steam hammer, once said: "If I were
to try to compress into one sentence
the whole of the experience Of an active
and successful life and offer 1t to
young men as a rule and certain recipe
for success in any station, it would be
comprised in this: Duty first; pleasure
second From what 1 have seen Of
young men and their after progress l
am satisfied that what Is generally
termed bad fortune ill luck and
misfortune is in nine cases out Of
ten simply the result Of inverting this
simple maxim. My own experience
convinces me that absence Of success
arises in the great majority Of cases
from want of self denial and want of
common sense. The worst maxim of
all maxims is, Pleasure first; work and
duty second"

Grotesuue African Customs.

Tattooing is almost universally prac-
ticed by both sexes of the natives of
Africa. 1t Is, however, very roughly
done and is altogether inferior to the
tattooing of the Maoris of New Zea-
land and other Pacific races. The meth
cd Of operation is simply to make a
slit in the skin and then rub in char
coal. Among the less pleasing feminine
ornaments must be reckoned the nose
buttons Of the Wa Yao and the fright
full pelele, or lip ring, NJ the Anyanja.
The nose button is Circular disk Of
ivory or FURNISHED lead let into one
side Of the nostril. Ugly as is the eff
feet produced by this, it Is yet thou
sand times less hideous than the pelele,
which consists of a round, fat piece
Of ivory or wood fixed in a slit in the
upper lip. The slit is gradually in
creased by the insertion Of successive
plugs, each little larger than the pre-
ceding one, until it can accommodate
full sized pelele, which sticks out an
inch or more in front of the face, rem
dering the appearance Of the wearer
scarcely human.

wild Dogs of Africa.

or the wild dog Of central Africa an
explorer writes: 1.-The wild dog is COM
mon enough. He is an ugly looking
beast with a pied body, coarse hair,
short head and large, upright ears.
These wild dogs play fearful havoc
with game, occasionally clearing out
whole districts precisely in the same
manner as the red dhole Of India, be-
fore which even the tiger is said to re-
treat. They have wonderful power
of scent, wonderful boldness, endur-
ance and pertinacity, and their loose,
easy gallop covers the ground far more
quickly than it appears to do. They
usually hunt in considerable packs, al
though 1 have sometimes met them in
threes and tours. have never heard
Of wild dogs actually attacking man,
but they often behave as If on the
point of doing so. and unarmed travel
ers have been literally freed by them
before now"

The Repulsive squid.

Having caught squid, landlubber
at sea thus describes him: '"The squid
is small cousin Of the octopus. He is
about one foot long from the tip Of his
tail to the tip of his tentacles extend
ed). Normally he is of pale tan and
rich sienna, with darker spots, but he
has the power to become If frightened
almost colorless in an instant. In ex-
IRENE fright he discharges a dirty
brown secretion in the manner Of his
kind and escapes while the enemy is
enveloped in the impenetrable smudge.
The head is principally arms, with a
formidable parrot-like beak in the cen
ter, while his eyes are located just
back Of the arm cluster. The tail Is Of
the shape Of spearhead, with round
ed barbs. 1 did not examine him very
closely because of his snakelike ten
tacies, and, further, because his beak,
rasping on the spear iron, was most
unpleasant. We dropped him over
board, and was glad to see him CO."
