IN A STRANGE COUNTRY.
Where Seemingly Impossible Things
Were Done and Little
Thought OF.

We left Parsons rancho in Mon
tana about eight miles behind US. when
We came To where a man was hang
ine to the limb of tree and there was
a cowboy on horseback not far away.
relates a writer in the Cleveland PLAN
Dealer The stage driver pulled ia
his horses when We all had a LOOK,
and then he beckoned TO the cowboy
and asked:
"Has there been a lynching here -
Cant say as there has" was The
reply
But a Teller is hanging there to the
LIMB OF a tree"
That's true. and I've been pulling
ever il. 1t seems purity plain that he
was drawed uu 70 thar limb. don't it?"
"She DO Yes sir. it seems plain
that he vas drawed zip 70 that limb,
and then the free end Of the rope made
fast"
And that's what I'm puzzling
about" said the cowboy
"As 10 how"
"As to how critter can pull him
self up. choke himself to death. and
then come down and faston the rope
and 20 lsck up agin. It's ~ first
time I ever seen it done and it's
suthin' new to this country. and after
this shall 20 in for all hoss thieves

were a mile away

YESTERDAYS STOCK MARKET.
Falls Into Almost Total Neglect Tow
 ard Close of Day.

ard Close of Day.
 New York. July 25.-To-day's stock market had clearly enough fallen back into the hands of the smaller profes- sional element which trades at the board room day in and out the year round. as against the element which embarks in extensive speculative cam paigns with intervals away from the stock market. The latter element is indulgiVg in vacation likeness at this period. The general public shows no sign of interest in the market. The buying movement of Monday, to cover short contracts put out on Saturday, was carried over into the early part of to-day and small speculative par ties operated for an advance in one or two stocks in which there were plaus- ible motives for an advance. Reading rebounded sharply from Saturdays attack. owing to the disclaimers pub licly expressed by the president of the mine workers of the alleged danger of a strike. The U. s. steel stocks were taken in anticipation of strong showing to be made by the quarterly report of net earnings, which was not expected to be published, however, un- til after the closing of the market. The bear attack of last Saturday is cynically attributed in the comment current about the stock exchange to the account of a large bucket shop in- terest, the customers of which had made extensive commitments on the long side, entailing the deposit of large marginal securities in the hands of the bucket shops. The demand for stocks was not extended largely be- yond the needs of the short sellers of last week. The normal uncertainty of crop estimates at this season of the year and the irregular movements of stocks likely to result seem to discour- age activity.
 The recovery in the price of wheat to-day was accompanied by some re- vival of black rust reports from the spring wheat region. The glaring discrepancy between the tenor of these reports and those of the weather bu- reau's weekly crop bulletin did not deprive them of influence both in the wheat and stock markets. and the late reaction in stocks was largely attrib- utable to this cause. The money mar Ret was calmed easy, but principally from the lightness of the demand, the funds offering showing no notable in- crease in volume. The stock market or the latter part of the day fell into almost total neglect, but the decline was partly recovered and the closing was steady.
 Bonds were steady. Total sales, par value, $1,S14,O00.
 U. s. bonds were unchanged on call.
