Quotations received from Kimberly. Root & Day, Investment Brokers, 153 Orange street, New Haven Conn:
The daily morning journal and courier., 1906-12-15

Prof Omori, who is one of the most distinguished seismologists, was studying earthquake results near the San Francisco Post Office when a to- mato can, aimed with obnoxious ac- curacy, knocked his hat off.
 It was known that the can was thrown by one of a number of boys in the employ of the Post Office.
 The Post Office superintendent called the boys together and ordered them to tell who was the culprit. Each professed absolute ignorance of the affair
 The superintendent then adopted more subtle means of getting the truth. He told the boys to write the name of the offender on slips of pa per- which were deposited in a hat. With complete unanimity the boys named Marks, He saw what was com ing and wrote his own name on the slip which had been handed him.
 Thereupon for throwing the can he got the can" In other words, he was bounced.
 Sldney's own account of the incident is interesting, not only as a history of the Japanese-Amerlcan trouble, but also because if furnishes material for philologists who are interested in the comparative slang of the Atlantic and Pacific Coasts. By way of an explana- tory preface it should be set forth that "skippie" is an epithet applied to Japanese here. Sidney says;
 Tt was this way: there was a bunch of us behind the Post Office, when one of the gang yells
 Pipe the skippie under the dicer! Let's soak i'm.
 We let loose for fair. me to the lucky boy. I bounced a can off his skypiece, He was sure sore.
 But we sent him down an alley after the naughty boy who did him wrong. I guess the naughty boy thing didn't go with the skippie, cause MT. Fiske called us up and give us a chance to tell who did it.
 Say, the way the gang came through at first was great--nothin' doin'
 Then MT, Fiske he ses each kid must write the name of the one who bumped the skippie on a piece of pa ped and put it in a hat.
 Now the right frame up was for no name. See? But spects a couple of candy boys is gettin cold feet, and it's me Johnny Wise that I'm for the throw down, I coppers the bet with my own signature on my paper. See
 Say. do you know what was in that hat? Little Shiney was red hot favorite with every vote That guess I laid on the candy boys feet saved my reputation. was due for the can, anyhow.
 Say didn't the President put me name in is message after I done something to give him chance to talk? No? That's pretty punk, ain't it?"-san Francisco Special Chicago Tribune.

rEs4ERDAr,s STOCK MARKET
Great Variety and General Tone Much
 Better.

New York, Dec 14.--There was great variety in the stock market to-day The general tone became much better than yesterday and a recovery from yester- da's losses was achieved, but in very spotty and irregular manner. The overwhelming share of attention was given to the northwestern transeonti- mental group, There was evidence ear ly in the day of the further divergent movement in the Hill stocks and St. Paul. but the former met effective sup port and the latter touched its highest level comparatively early in the day. The report of the question raised by the attorney-ge of Minnesota of the legality of the Great Northern stock issue now offered to stockholders at par was believed to account largely for yes- terday's weakness in Great Northern preferred and in Northern Pacific, on the assumption that the proposed new stock issue of the latter would be af- fected by the question of the Great Northern stocks validity. 1t was as- serted with great positiveness that preparations were completed yesterday, before the news of the Minnesota de- cision, for the announcement of rights to subscribe at par to $93, ,00O, 600 of Northern Pacific stock. To-day the confident assertion was made that it had been decided to issue the S75,OO0 900 of St. Paul preferred stock already au- thorized, with privilege to stockholders to subscribe at par. With estimates of the value of the rights thus accrued on St. Paul stock, the assumption was suggested that the feverlsh movements of the last few days represented a re- adjustment of relatives prices rather than important transfers of holdings. The estimated value of the St. Paul rights equals or exceeds the price at which the Great Northern subscription rights are selling in the outside mar | l5et. As both stocks are per cent. div idend payers the inference would fol- low that the price of the two stocks should approximate a parity with rights in both cases included.
