MARK TWAIN
AT SEVENTY
.@@@@eA@A@AAAAA@@@AA@AA

Mark Twain was seventy years old
on Thanksgiving Day. All America
and a great part of the civilized world
took cognizance of the fact, for, when
all is said and done, it must be rec
ognized that Mark Twain is of the
race of the truly great, and his at
tanning of the tough age of seventy is
an event of Importance. 1t is in the
fame chiefly, and it is not surprising,
therefore, to find him indulging in his
ruling passion while very much alive
at three-Score years and ten. At the
dinner that was given to him by Colo
mel George Harvey, editor of the
North American Review and Harper s
Weekly, he said:
81 have achieved my seventy years
by sticking strictly to a scheme of life
which would kill anybody else. 1 have
made it rule to go to bed when there
was not anybody left to sit up WITH
and I have made it a rule to get up
when I had to. This has resulted in
an answering irregularity. In diet
have been persistently strict in sticking

me, but last spring ] stopped frolicking

We have said that all America took
cogizance of Mark Twain's birthday,
but there was one place in America
where it did not arouse as much inter-

the town of Florida in Monroe County.

was born.

this is a mistake. The resident agent
is in close touch with all people likely
to require machinery, and can be
pounding away at them, giving prompt
replies to Inquiries and securing the
service of the expert on short notice
The latter makes specifications, super
intends the erection of machinery, and
is called in in case any trouble arises.
1t is very necessary to have goods
give satisfaction, and very often they
fail to do so when there is merely a
misunderstanding of some little detail
which the expert can put his finger on
at once. 1t takes too long to get a
reply from America in regard to COM
plants, as we'll as quotations on new
business of an unusual character.

Americans who contemplate entering
this market should first ascertain
through the American Consul whether
their goods are salable in this partic-
ular territory. For instance, it would
not pay a hard coal stove manufac-
turer to bother with Ceylon, India.

YESTERDAY'S STOCK MARKET
Money Rates Easier and Securities In-
 cIined to Advance.

cGneu ID AIVdnces
 New York, Oct. 2.-The course of to- days money market justified last weeks. speculative confidence that the tone would relax after the special re- quirements of the close of last week had been met. These requirements in cluded those for the turn of the month and for the quarter, and also for the very large syndicate transactions which were put through" Syndicate payments on the large railroad bond issues were evidently redeposited immediately and became available in to-day's money market. Therefore instead of Fridays rates for call loans above 6 per cent. and up to ' per cent, there was only a momentary demand to-day at per cent, and the free offerings carried the rate down to 5 per cent. In response to this prices of securities were inclin- ed to advance. Efforts to awaken any animation in the speculation, however, proved mostly abortive. Movements of any extent were confined to industri- al stocks which have been the subject of pool operations for long time past. While the action of the money market lessened anxiety regarding any imme- diate stringency, and all of the news was calculated to uphold confidence in the solid foundation of values, it was felt that actual ease in money is not to be hoped for at once. The early re- ports of additional gold engagements in London were regarded as exaggerat- T h5,A fa fled the conclusion that gold had been secured there.
 This was enough to prove that the advance in the Bank of England dis count rate was not to make an effective barrier to the securing of further gold for New York. The price of gold in London was marked up again as a further measure of protection for the supply in that market. The sub-treas- ury statement showed that the govern ment fiscal operations were still talk ing money from New York banks, the loss to that institution reaching $1, 576,- 900 as against the loss for the previous week for the same period of $1,949, 900. The extraordinary nature of the rail- road traffic reported by officials offers a clear index of the great expansion of credits, and heavy demand for funds from all parts of the country. Favor able reports of railroad business have come to be received without surprise in Wall street, but reports this week had to resort to such expressions as 'delug- ed with freight" rush" and lover whelned" in order to convey the idea of conditions. An advance in the price of copper here and in London induced only a narrow movement in Amalgam- ated Copper. At the end of the day some fractional losses were mixed with

The money market eased off yester- day and this helped the bulls, Besides there was talk of more gold coming and this was verified by the following dispatch which came by Associated Press last evening:

 There was heavy buying of Anal gamatad Copper Pennsylvania, and some other stocks by Boston yesterday which had an appearance of short cov- ering.
