about the looks of Captain Nose Britt and Captain
Sile Cole that morning. The moment they came

was as natural as it is
for bulldogs to growl
and tackle. In those
days, every boy in Starks
and Byron, as soon as
he was big enough to
go in swimming in the
river, shouted insult and
contumely across the sill

two shores there was a
debatable island about
as big as a flapjack that
the larger boys of Starks
and Byron met upon and
fought over and took
and lost and retook, year
after year. Our grand
fathers used to do that.

COUNTS FUNERAL
FRENCH NOBLEMAN TO BE
BURIED BY FRIENDS
Members of Family in France Make
No Arrangements for Disposition
of Body-St. Vincent de
Paul IN Charge

The funeral of the late Comte de la
Croix, whose body has been lying in
Bresee Brothers morgue for several
weeks awaiting burial at the hands
of friends or relatives, will be held at
the Cathedral tomorrow at 8 o'clock
under the auspices of the Society of st.
Vincent de Paul.

the distinguished French family to
which the count belonged failed tc
bring any response or the replies man
Tested no interest in preventing the
burial of the eccentric nobeman in the
potters field. kilograms to friends
and relatives in America met with the
same result.
There was prospect that the body
would have been inferred at the ex-
pense of the county had it not been
for the intervention of the Society Of
st. Vincent de Paul. A carriage will
be provided for the pupils of the count
who may wish to attend
The mystery that lay behind the
strange life of Comte valiant de la
Croix goes with him to the grave. AL
though his family was one of the old
est and wealthiest of the French no
bility he never communicated with any
of the members. He preferred to eke
out living as teacher of music,
field in which he possessed unusual
skill. At his death he destroyed all
his letters. He was reserved i'm his
action, had no intimate friends and
never disclosed the motive for his self
imposed banishment.
The mass will be said by the Rev.
Father Lonergan, chaplain of the Ca
thedral conference Of st. Vincent de

APOLLO CLUB HARD AT WORK
Studying Literary Scope and Purpose
of the Creation


A pleasing and instructive innova-
tion has been made by the Apollo club
at it's rehearsals every Monday even
ing in Mammoth hall, SIT South Broad
way.
Fifteen minutes during the evening
are given up to a review of the literary
scope and purposes of the famous mas
terpiece of Haydn, 1.-The Creation -
which the club is studying for presen-
tation early in March. c. P. Huey, a
member of the society, delivered an
address on this subject last Monday
evening, and the address was rein
forced at intervals with a rendition on
the piano of the initial number, Rep
resentation of Chaos" by Miss Showal-
ter, the clubs pianist, and with the
tenor air, "In Native WORTH" sung by
w. A. Packard, also a member. A
brief biography will be the feature next
Monday evening. Harry Barnhart has
organized a larger and more expert
enced orchestra for "The Creation"
than that of The Messiah" last De-
cember, and every member of the or
chestra and chorus is enthusiastic and
evinces great aptitude in the work.
The friends of the Apollo club con-
fidently look forward to March, the
time set for the oratorio, when the
music lovers of Los Angeles will surely
enjoy rare treat.

NEW. YORK, Jan. 2S.-The sudden
outbreak of pyrotechnics in a group
OF stocks which is sensitive to devel-
opments I'm the Northern Securities
case was the feature of the stock mar
ket today, and these occurred late in
the market
Union Pacific was the central figure
and broke through the restraint which
has held it below $1.20 and was rushed
UP to $1.21R. The transactions on the
rise were of enormous volume. St.
Paul responded vigorously and sensa-
tional advances were made by Great
Northern and the Chicago q. &c North
western group.
Northern Securities itself in the curb
market was, rushed up several points
above it's previous highest price to the
neighborhood of $1.55. There were
very large transactions in Erie
throughout the session. but that stock
encountered heavy profit taking.
1t has been the professed eXpecta-
tion for several days past that the de-
cision of the supreme court in the
Northern Securities case would be
handed down at Washington on Mon
day. Beyond this there was nothing
to explain the excitement regarding
these stocks
The tone of the general market
showed strength, but by no means in
the same degree as in this special
group.
The greater activity which developed
after the appearance of the bank state
ment was probably not due to its
showing, although the gain in cash
reserves was much larger. than was
promised and the loan expansion hard

gong out in a stream because there
was no adequate use to be found for

THE CHICAGO MARKET
Wheat Steady, Corn Weak and Pro-
visions Lower

BY Associated Press,
CHICAGO, Jan. 28.-Reflecting lower
prices at Liverpool the wheat market
here was easy at the opening. May
started h@k off at $1.15h@1.15%. The
decline abroad was said to be due to
increased shipments from Australia.
At the start there was considerable
scattered selling. commission houses
and pit traders being prominent on
that side of the market. The slight
decline, however, brought out fair
demand from shorts. In consequence
there was soon a firmer undertone,
May advancing to $1.16. Trading was
comparatively tight throughout the en-
tire session. The market closed firm,
with May at $1.15S.
Selling by cash houses and scalpers
caused a rather weak corn market.
May closed at 45c.
Larger receipts than expected was
partly responsible for a small decline
in the price of oats; May closed a.
30%c.
A decline of 10 cents in the price of
hogs started moderate profit taking in
provisions and resulted in lower prices
throughout the list. At the close, May
pork was off 12h @15c; lard was down
~, and ribs were off 21s@5c.
