Senate. Senator Platt was on hand
when the Senate opened and remained
for nearly three quarters OF an hour
He was then assisted from the Senate
chamber by one OF his secretaries and
retired
Senator Platt had returned and re-
sumed his official duties because of
Morgans comparison between the other
States with two Senators each present
and active and New York without rep

servations reached Platt up in Highland
Mills, and he at once started for this
city.
When asked what caused him 10 leave
his country home and come back, SEN

because the State of New York was
without representation in the Senate
so ! thought I would come back. This

 "A large dish in the centre of the sideboard was not touched, while noth- ing has since been seen of the glasses which stood beside it. Two other glasses on the sideboard were shot, from their places to the kitchen floor, q distance of fifteen feet, and then to the kitchen stove, where they were de- poslted without scratch.

 It is evident that when lightning tries to show off 1t can accomplish some queer stunts when aided by the human imagination. The report failed to add that the lightning rolled up MT.

Again Under Pressure--Interrupted by
 Occasional Rallies.

OCcdSAVuuA
 New York, Sept. 2S.-Stock to-day were again under pressure, which be- came acute at times. but was inter- rupted by occasional rallies when the bears detected slackening in the sell ing and bought tu cover shorts. A savage onslaught on the over-extended short interest caused the violent re- covery at last, The high opening was treasury department placing $26, O00 of government deposits in national banks at different points through the country. The high prices were im- mediately taken advantage to sell stocks to realize profits, and this move ment continued at intervals for the rest of the day. The early rise in the call money rate aroused apprehension that there would be q furry later in the day in spite of the government de- posits with the banks. Preparations were evidently going on for the heavy demands to be met on Monday for pay nent of dividends and interest and for increase of the cash reserves of the trust companies. Loans were called on quite large scale and bidding became rather urgent for renewals Several million dollars were placed on the loan market however, by the National City bank and these offerings kept the rate down. The effect of this action or speculative sentiment was impaired tc degree by the special weakness of St Paul, Union Pacific and Amalgamated Copper in the market, concentrated selling of these stocks giving an i'm precision of the liquidation of an inn portant speculative account. The method of relief for the money market chosen by the treasury authorities did not give entire assurance of it's effect. [ iveness for meeting the needs of the stock market, The wide distribution of the deposits is likely, it was assumed to initiate against an easy flow int the New York money market.
 The bears were persistent sellers dur. ing the day and they were severely punished in the sudden and violen turn in the market in the last hal | hour. This was caused principally b, the seeming probability that points of difference over the ore lands negotia ticns between the Great Northern ant the United States Steel corporation hat been adjusted, making an announce ment of the terms imminent, Mayo McClellan's announced intentions to- ward the head of his party ticket alst prompted some nasty covering.

Feet of the Horse.

To get the most from horse its feet
must be kept in proper condition; not
only well and properly shod, but cared
Tor by the owner in the matter Of clean
Illness. The beginning of such care
should be the clean stable; that is, the
stable clean Of manure, than which
nothing is worse for the horse to stand
IL for any considerable time. When
the horse comes in from day Of work
in the fields, which are soft, or from Il
hard drive on muddy roads, look after
its feet and legs. Each hoof should be
looked over carefully and cleaned, and
the legs should be groomed as carefully
as the sides. Then there are the por-
tons of the coat which are covered by
the harness which ought to have good
care each time the horse is brought into
the barn. First of all, see that the har-
ness fits well, then, after embarrassing
wipe off the places touched by the har-
hess, using a moist rag or sponge. If
there Is any suspicion of a rubbing,
look to the cause ct once and remove
it. There Is no time in the work days
of the horse when good care and watch
fitness will do so much to keep him In
good condition as during the period of
hard spring work.
