NEW YORK DAY BY DAY.
Some Of the Things Done Daily in she
Metropolis.


One of the most remarkable pa
tients that has come under the OBJ
servation OF the physicians of st.
Francis Hospital, Jersey City, Is a
man who cannot tell who he Is, al
though he is in normal physical
condition.
When at work a few days ago In
the cooperage of Day & O'Donnell,
on Sussex Street, the man had a Sc
we're fall and was made speechless.
At the Hospital everything was done
to restore speech, but to no effect.
The man seems clearly to under
stand what is said to him, but Is not
able to respond. Paper and pencil
have been placed in his hands and
he has been asked to write his name
and address. Apparently he made
efforts to comply with the request,
but these only resulted In a lot OF
hieroglyphics.
He comprehends questions and
tries to talk. His lips move and he
mumbles something incoherently.
Brain specialists have been called
from the hospitals of New York to
examine the patient.

COMMERCIAL COLUMN.


r. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review
of Trade says:
Expectations for record-breaking
demand for Christmas specialties are
being fully realized. Jobbing and
wholesale houses are doing well for
the season, but reports of mercantile
collections show much irregularity.
Improvements in the promptness OF
payments is expected when the crops
have been more fully marketed and
greater ease appears in money rates,
which are far above normal, despite
the fact that the total amount In
circulation exceeds all records. Very
little idle machinery is noticed in
the factories and mills, except where
the supply of labor and raw ma
terials is insufficient, and the vigor-
Gus demand for all commodities is
indicated by the highest level OF
prices in recent years.
Textile mills are opeating large
percentage of the available machin-
cry, although the inadequate supply
of labor continues to be drawback.

reported for November are $11,9SO,-

You may find many squirrel in

tempting escape or concealment.
The ways and means of the little ras-
Gals are legion. One may fatten
himself out against a gray patch on
the back of tree trunk, absolutely
motionless; and unless in your earn
est, steadfast looking you can detect
an ear or shoulder in relief against
the sky you might as we'll abandon
search. Another may lie along
bough flattened at full length; but
here telltale ears are more easily sill
houetted. Still another may crouch
drawn up in the fork; and here the
thing to look for is the fluffy tip of
that little signal flag which always
works and waves and jerks and sig
nails so bravely when danger is not
in the air. Or one may gather him
self up in bunch to initiate a knot
or knob; and here he can very we'll
tell when you have spied him out. He
will catch your eye, even as you catch

for headlong fight, leaping from
tree to tree, till he vanishes over
