ing extract from a composition sub
mitted to him for approval during the
days when he was a worker in the
schoolteaching ranks. The extract
runs as follows: Beings are divided
into names according to that which
they feed on. The lion eats flesh
the lion is carnivorous. The COW eats
grass-the COW is herbarious. Man
eats everything. Therefore man is

TEsTERDAY,s sTooK MARKET
Strength and weakness Discernible In
1t Side nv side.

Strength and weakness DiscernibIe In
1t Side BY side.
New York, July 14-To-day's stock
market was similar to yesterdays to
the extent that the strength ana weak
ness were discernible in 1t side by side,
profit-taking In one quarter being off,
set by new advance In another But
the reactionary note was rather more
dominant than yesterday and the late
market failed to respond in the same
way to the efforts to effect a conpre-
hensive rally. This. was partly because
the traders who fought the advance
were more cautious than yesterday in
putting out short lines, the forced COW
ering of which yesterday was an inn
portant factor in the late rally. The
volume Of dealings to-day was consid-
erably less than yesterday. The market
was still one Of good deal Of anima-
ton and breadth and good absorptive
mower of the large offerings to take
profits which were thrown upon it.
Probably the most potent factor In the
reaction was the absence of decision
on the Northern Securities distribution
case The adjournment for another
week OF the annual meeting of the
Northern Pacific stockholders indicated
that their previous adjournment until
to-day was not with definite inforfna-
ton of the date of the Northern Secur-
tiles decision as was assumed yester-
day.
Some incongruity was recognized in
the simultaneous upward movement of
Union Pacific and Northern Securities
which occurred yesterday on the ru-
NOR Of this decision, which must neces-
sarily be to the advantage of one party
and at the cost of the other. The vio-
lent rise in the wheat market was an
additional warning and the government
report on the condition of foreign crops
did not reveal the amount of damage
there that has been held to account for
the recent strength in our wheat mark
cts. On the other hand, the more fay-
oring condition Of the cotton crop and
the renewed foreign demand for that
staple proved of some benefit to the cot
ton carrying roads, notably Louisville
and Nashville and Southern railway.

The Pail Mall Gazette remarked:
"Englishmen can afford to give him his

that he was, great man.
The Evening Standard says: "A great

This is the latest form of dietetic exer-
else of the students at the University Of
Minnesota
1t is all the fault Of professor from
an Eastern university who was invited to
chapel one morning to address the stu
dents.
He said that breakfast and supper, if
partaken of properly, were all that was
necessary for a student.
If the food was well cooked and whole
some, two meals were just the thing to
keep student brains ready for exams.
Then came another statement critical
in its results. 81 don't approve of the
fudge and pickle idea said the prof.
He had evidently heard of the "pickle

at 1921 South Twenty-ifth street last
night. The meeting was presided over by

George F. Wright, Democratic candidate
for mayor, after few preliminary re-
marks in regard to Republican methods,
said that what Tacoma needed was more
power companies and railroads. He prom
ised to work toward that end If elected.

wanted none Of it.

DECISION RENDERED
IN A TACOMA CASE

OLYMPIA, March PA decision was
rendered by the supreme court yesterday
in the case of Ambrose A. Carson and
others, appellants, VS.. George w. Fogg and
others.
The appellants were at one time own
ers of three lots in Tacoma, on which had
been executed a mortgage. The holders of
the mortgage began foreclosure proceed
ings. and the appellants employed the re-
spondents, George w. Fogg and Homer f.
Norris. to defend the action under an
agreement that the attorneys should have
half of what was saved. The judgment
was against Carson ct al, and no appeal
was taken.
Later. other parties desired to pur-
chase the lots employed Fogg to secure a
good title to the lots, agreeing to pay
IS. 300 for the property when that was
done. Fogg paid the Carsons $500 for a
uuit claim deed, took up the certificate
OF sale for all five lots and transferred
three of them to the parties desiring to
purchase, and retained two lots in his own
name. This action was brought by Carson
ct al to quiet title to the two lots claimed
by Fogg. 1t was asserted by them that
they had given the quit claim to the
three lots with the understanding that
Fogg was also making $500 by the transac-
ton. and that they would have the two
remaining lots free from lien. Judgment
was for Fogg in the lower court.
The principal question discussed in the
appeal is whether or not Fogg was acting
for Carson when he purchased the GER
tificate of sale
The court holds that Fogg purchased
- 30 of Gala ttrfG hiR
former clients, and that the original agree
ment giving half to the attorneys of the
amount saved in the foreclosure proceed

BRAKES FAILED TO
STOP THE CAR

Yesterday afternoon, while on the way
to the Harrison woodward, one of the
horses belonging to Alexander Brownlee
was knocked down and seriously injured by
freight car belonging to the street rail
way company. The car was not running
at very high rate of speed, but was
beyond control, because the brakes were
not working properly.
! The car struck Brownlee's horse on the
side and hip and threw it. One foot was
caught between the brake beam and the
wheel and badly wrenched. 1t is very
doubtful if the horse will be of any fur
ther use.
