The Streets Fnu of TaIl..

The street is full of all kinds of talk
OF deals, combinations and that sort
of thing, to which there is in reality
more or less substantial basis. A new
era of railroad concentration appears
to be daWning and decided progress
along this line will no doubt be seen
within the next year. All this is for
the up-building of the stock market,
and for the stimulation of popular in
terest.
Further important concentration of
railroad systems is in progress. In
the West, control of Atchison has been
bought by interests friendly to Union
Pacific, St. Paul and the GOulds. There
may be no formal announcement of
this fact for a long time, but control
of the property is nevertheless firmly
lodged where it cannot be disturbed.
IT is barely possible that the Rock Is
land interests are included in this deal.
but upon that point there is a lack
of Information. The purchase of Chi
cago and Alton by parties identified
with the ownership of Rock Island. is
now an assured fact That deal has
been contaminated and formal an
nouncement will come along in due
time. Louisville and Nashville Allan
tic Seaboard- Southern Railway combi-
nations are continually charging and
taking in odds and ends throughout the
South.

these cheap stocks that the speculative
money of the millionaire class as well
as little people is drifting. Men like
y. .. Mills, Norman B. Ream, John
u. rockefeller, Marshall Field and 9TH
ers OF their ilk who have made colossal
fortunes buying railroad stocks when
they were cheap and holding them for
big figures are buying them now, and
holding for higher prices.
The AtchisOn Puzzle.
Another version of the Atchison puz-
zle is that the heavy buying of Kuhn,
Loeb & Co. during the last half dozen
months has been for the personal ac-
count of John D. Rockefeller, and that
he took over the entire Kuhn, Loeb
block of 4S0 600 shares as an Individual
acquisition He is also said to have
bought very largely into Southern Pa
cific, Southern Railway and Pennsyl-
Vania, likewise for personal account,
and having nothing whatever to do
with any combinations or alliances
with other members of the Standard
Oil group or with George Gould. AS a
part of this same story it is said that
the senior Rockefeller's investments in
stocks during the last year have APP
proximated $60,000,00O cash. most of
which he had, and a small part o.
which he borrowed in order to COM
plete his plans. Mr.. Rockefeller is in
receipt of an annual income of at least
$50 900. 900: by some well advised peo
pie the amount is placed considerably
higher. The senior Rockefeller makes
it a practice to play a lone hand, and
on more than one occasion he has in
dignantly repudiated reports that he
was in combination with H. H. Rogers
and others. A conspicuous illustration
of his desire to be placed in a class
by himself was shown in Amalgamated
Copper when he came out in per-
sOnal interview denying any connec-
ton with that affair.

if you have no real military instructor. to take turns at the pSsition, and Tn watching for your squads mistakes you will discover some of your own.
 When you take the rifles, you will find far more interesting motions. They arc picturesque, and they bring into play all the muscles of the body. The work without arms is preliminary; with arms, the genuine calisthenics are under head way.
 Charge bayonets!" is an excellent lit- tie drill for the arms. It reads: Half face to the right. carrying the heel six inches to the rear and three inches to the right of the left, turning the toes of both feet slightly inward; at the same time drop the piece into the left hand at the balance. thumb clasping piece, elbow against the body, point of bayonet at the height of the chin. right hand grasping small of stock and supporting it firmly against the right hip, body incllnlng slightly forward"
 "Kneelr' Riser and 'Lie down" are all commands involving much bodily ex- erclse, and should be given much atten- brings the arms up in a way that is of value to all the upper part of the body Best of all to give you pink cheeks, linn Der muscles, bright eyes and a whole some jingle from top to toe. Is tho bay onet exercise, which includes the more strenuous work of parry and thrust. You can purchase a toy rifle complete with bayonet. Do not get one of minia- ture size. You might as we'll handle one that feels like a real gun. Try to exe- cute the command "Thrust!" and you will see what an appetizer 1t is. Thrust the piece quickly forward to

 The choice of uniform must be left to your own ingenuity and taste. Some may prefer the closest possible imitation of a regular army uniform. Others may prefer to wear something more fanciful and appear like military maidens of the stage chorus. Inexpensive and natty suits can be made of khaki or blue de- nim. White Is charming if kept immac- ulate. White flannel or red flannel. dec orated with brass, would be as effective as anything imaginable. Perhaps you can fit your own suits and make your own frogs of braid, which comes by the yard, instead of leaving the work to a tailor. Many styles of cut would be pret- ty. with either long or short jacket
 One thing to bear in mind is that a suit cannot carry the military idea un- less it Is smoothly fitted. Anything like blouse would spoil the eject This does not mean. however. that you need draw in your stays beneath the jaclxet-what- ever Dame Gossip has often whispered of real soldiers.

I able. If you can possibly manage 1t, | try to have someone who has at least known more or less of militia dr4ll to start you, even though you have to ap- point one of your own number as lead CT for the future. An occasional inspec- , ton by one who understands tactics will keep you from going far wrong if you depend for the most part on the h. fantry Drill Regulations of the United States Army.
 This is a little paper-bound volume which can be purchased for as small a price as half a dollar, and it gives in the most complete way, even to the min- utest details. the rules for all the infan- try drill The chapter called School of the Soldier" is the one of importance in this study.
 "Attention!" may seem A very siunIa command, and to the raw recruit 1t means no more than listening to hear what the commander has to say. But the veteran knows that 1t involves a great deal more. The command "Atten- ton! brings every trained man into the perfect military standing position, which the manual describes as follows: Heels on the same line and as near man permits. '-'0
 Feet turned out equally and forming with each other an angle of about sixtY degrees. ''1-'' Knees straight, without stiffness.
 Body erect on the hips, inclinin1 a little forward; shoulders square and fall ing equally.
 Arms and hands hanging naturally backs of the hands outward; little fing' CTS opposite the seams of the trousers. elbows near the body.
 Head erect and square to the front. chin slightly drawn in without con straint; eyes straight to the front" When you have found that line in your skirts which corresponds to seams of he trousers" and have put every detaiI of this rule in practice, then you have learned to stand and not before So you see that standing military-wise is not the easy thing you may have con sidered it.
 "Rest!'' may. perchance seem easier yet until you have memorized the Pa rade. rest" rule:
 Garry the right foot six inches straight to the rear, left knee slightly bent; clasp the hands in front of the cen Ter or the body, left hand uppermost, left thumb clasped by thumb and forefnger or right hand; preserve silence and stead mess of position.''
 There is a deal of value to you in ev- cry phase of this not the least in the command to preserve silence. No real rest military or otherwise, can exist without silence.
 All or the exercises without arms should .'s thoroughly understood before the toy rihes are put into use. You must learn 10 stand, rest, face and march without them them and then the command, Carry armls' S may be heard in your little ar

"Fall in.'
 There was a sharp click of twenty -four dainty heels on a smooth floor, and' presto! there appeared as dapper hne of soldiers as Uncle Sam himself could ask for.
 Rut such soldiers as they were. Not stalwart six-footers with shoulders like hedges of rock, but a dozen girls In Ablue, taking their infantry drill like % many little men. Skirts did not inter sRere with marching, turning, charging kneeling, lying down. There was not 8connmand in the catalogue that they could not execute as promptly and as neatly as a genuine squad in khaki. { It had been whispered to me what this dozen society girls were doing, and' bn the pledge of never giving away their names, I was admitted to one of their drilIe. It was the prettiest physical Training I ever saw. The picture was per Feet. with their smart little uniforms, which a professional costumer had de- kigned for them. bright blue the suits were. with flashing gilt buttons and bands, smart caps, white gloves and tifes.
