But the stock market community has formed a habit, from the experience of several years, of looking to special treasury operations during the fall season for relief from other encroachments on the money market.
 A rally in the London copper market after further opening decline was a minor item of reassurance. The trad CTS developed spirit of tinidity, and while the closing tone was easy, the price fluctuations of the latter part of the day were exceedingly uncertain.

YEsTERDAY's STOCK MARKET.
Further Heavy Liquidation and Uni-
 form Designs.


 New York; Sept. 7.-There was fur ther heavy liquidation of stocks early to-day, following that of yesterday, and quite uniform declines of between one and two points resulted in the course of the first hours trading. The market gave evidence of being oversold and the perception of this fact induced some renewed covering of short con- tracts by the bears. The tone of the market became extremely uncertain and unsettled at the resulting rally in prices. The taking of profits by the bears was due partly to the fact that some of the adverse factors in the days news were anticipated in the selling of yesterday. This was notably true in the advance in the minimum rate of discount by the Bank of England which was made to-day. The usual wide in- fuence throughout the financial world of a change of discount rate by that institution occurred, nevertheless. The active demand from Paris upon Ion- don for gold and the large engagements there for shipments to South America seem to be the immediate explanation
 
 for the action. Discounts hardened in Berlin and Paris in response Call money rates went to above 3 per cent. and the asking rates for time loans were advanced by many lenders.
 The liquidation effected in the stock market seemed, nevertheless, to- have relieved the money market to some ex- tent, and the rising tendency in New York exchange at Chicago indicated that the higher rates for money here were affecting the interior demand up- on this center. The belief that the stock market liquidation had kent pace with the need for contraction of credits had the effect of checking short selling by the bears. The effective recovery followed the cessation of business on foreign stock exchanges, although the settlement of the Moroccan incident relieved the pressure from foreign sources to some extent The enthusiastic reports from the steel trade of the sales of steel rails ana other forms of railroad equipment | TOT lSO6 delivery made a sustaining in- Huence and served to steady the Unit i ed States Steel stocks, the weakness of which was a sentimental influence in |

THE "HAsHIsH" HABIT.

Measures: Taken by Egyptian Govern
 mert to Suppress Drug Traffic.
 The custom administration have made some very clever hauls of "hash- ish'' during the past few days. At AL exandria over ton was captured in one lot, and it was valued at nearly 2,500 pounds, The restrictions against
 'hashish" in this country are most rig orotls. Its indulgence is forbidden
 both by the Mohammedan religion and by law. Formerly "hashish'' was im- ported by way of Alexandria, but ow- ing to the sharp outlook which was Kept. the importers had to seek other means. It is nov landed on the coast of Tripoli, and thence conveyed across country. This increases the difficulties of captures, and so the Government is changing it's tactics, and instead of trying to stop the importation, Is en- deaYoring to prevail on the Govern ment of Greece to prohibit the. cuItiva- ton of the drug in that country. As a new commercial convention is being drawn un between Greece and Egypt the present is an suspicious moment for insisting on the prohibition. The Hellenic Government demurs at having to interdict the cultivation of "hash- ish as this is one of the chief re- sources of the Penoponnesus; still as the number Of "hashishes" or hashish smokers is increasing rapidly in the Piraeus as well, the Greek authorities will soon find themselves forced to take tho proposed step in the interest of their own subjects
 .Hashish' is indulged in to an enor- nous extent in Egypt-in Cairo espec- ially. There are no public dens, as they have all been cleared out But many an innocent-looking private house forms the cloak behind which the smoking of this demoralizing pro- duct is carried on in peace and without fear of interference by the police. This is one of the reasons why insanity has increased to such an alarming extent in Egypt. AS far as one can see, the only effect the campaign against ''hashish" has had, is to increase it's cost-it now stands at 50 francs kilo- but that does not deter the inveterate smokers, who abound in their thous- ands, The drug has srch hold, a fas- cinatton for them that they will pay any price to obtain it.

USE OF BEES AS MESSENGERS.
Experiments Showing How Their Sense
 of Direction May be Utilized.

Experlments Showing How Their Sense
 of Direction May be Utilized.
 A very curious and interesting in vestigation has been going on for some time past among nauturalists with re- gard to the senses of the lower animals. It has been found that in most cases these are very different from ours; and It cannot any longer be denied that in- stances occur in which special senses that are not possessed by human beings are developed in animals. One of these called 'the sense of direction" enables bees to return from long distance to their hives unaided by any of the five different ways we have of recognizing our surroundings.
 To test this matter thoroughly the fertile honey makers have been con- siderable distances from their hives, to localities which it was certain that they had never before visited, yet when set free they flew as unhesitatingly, as lnhesitatingly, as directly and as unerringly home as from places per- fectly known to them.
 A few years ago it occurred to a well known bee keeper that this remarkable ability on the part of bees might be made useful. Convincing himself that he could rely upon their speedy return rom anywhere within the range of three or four miles from the hives, whether they had ever been at the place from which they had started homeward Or not, he set to work to test their ability to carry messages, as do. homirlg pigeons. He accordingly pro- cured a few bees from friend who lived on the further side of barren. sandy tract of land, which, offering no possible. food supplies, was never visited by the insects, and crossed over to his own home.
 Going to his garden with the children he touched certain tiny packages with birdlime. Upon these were written, in minute handwriting, certain mes sages from his two little girls. The packages consisted of the thinnest pa- per, fastened with the thinnest of thread and done up in the smallest parcels possible.
 Releasing the bees, one by one, from the paste-board box in which they had been imprisoned, he fastened with a trained hand each of the little packets to the back of bee, which he then al- lowed to fly away.
 Like homing, they started off at once across the unfamiliar desert for their | home, arriving there in an incredibly | short space ftime with their packages secure upon their backs.-st Nicholas.

 III. The responsibilities of life: You have no right to fail. A great trust has been committed to you, and it fs your sacred duty to be true to the trust you must succeed. You owe il to yourself because your all depends upon il; you owe it to your parents. who have secured these advantages for you at cost Of great sacrifice; you owe it to the state, whose magnanimous policy has made your education pOssi- ble; above all, you eve it to God tp make the most of life.

 V. Some suggestions as to how to succeed:
 CD Be self reliant: "There is a time in every mans education when he arrives at the conviction that envy is ignorance; that imitation is suicide: that he must take himself for better, for worse, as his portion; that though the wide universe is full of good. no kernel of nourishing corn can come to him but through his toll bestowed on that plot of ground which is given to | him to till" Be yourself. The world needs individuality, and the race wiH be richer for your contribution to the common good.
 @ SeIf-mastery; no man can be his best who has not conquered him self. Conquer yourself and you hava conquered the world.
 (3) ThOrOughness; never slight your work. Whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well.
 (D Be willing to plod; "The man who goes up like a rocket always comes down like a stick. True success is earned slowly, and by doing every thing we do the very best we can. (5) Be your very best; Herein is success; not in being what another has been. but in being the very best Of which you are capable. The --orId needs you. whatever your talent, and | God needs you.
