happened we doubt the wisdom Of
the present movement and we are sure
that the business men of Denison do
not desire another exchange, on the
contrary they would be pleased it
there were but one exchange in the
city.

WEAK IN SOCIETY.

George Washington certainly had
his innings on Friday at the w. R. C.
social given at the home of Mrs. r.
Shaw Van. The handsome rooms
were draped in flags and each guest
was invited upon entering to make a
tissue paper colonial cap. The effect
was very gay and number of very
"chic" effects were made. Mrs.
Tucker had the honor of winning the
prize as making the most effective
cap.
The refreshments were unusually
nice both as to kind and amount. The
napkins were suggestive Of the day
and tiny flags were the favors.
Miss Georgia Mcclellan made a
winsome waiter in demure colonial
dress. Miss Margaret McHenry also
wore very pretty costume "of We
olden time -
Each guest was blindfolded and in
vited to pin Ratchet on cherry
tree, this made great deal of amuse-
ment. The parlors were we'll filled
all the afternoon and the social sue

The flower sale held by the Queen
Esther Circle was great success.
The flowers sold we'll and the attend
ance and those who partook of lunch
large. The young ladies made nearly
forty dollars and feel much indebted
to their friends for tkaa.r generous
support. The success Of the sale was
largely due to the untiring efforts OF
the President, Miss Austin, and she
and the circle are to be congratulated
upon the result.

The Teachers club is one of the

social spirit and mutual liking tina
prevails in the Denison corps of teach

The trio of hostesses left nothing
undone that could add to the pleasure
of their guests. The Misses Andersen

NEWS Of DIVIDEND
SENDS j. P. STOCK
BOOMING At N. Y.

New York. Aug l7-Union Pacific and
Southern Pacihc stocks made par
oxysmal jump i'm the stock market even
before the official announcement OF the
dividend declarations had been received
through the usual news channels
Union Pacific was up SIS 10 l7lh i'm the
course OF the first half hour and Southern
Pacinc's rise to SO was e7s over last
nights close.
The violence OF this advance and the
evidence OF alarm among the bears In
these stocks caused some apprehension
OF financial damage TO the shorts. The
course OF prices in the general list was
feverish i'm consequence. This anxiety
was partly relieved when Union Pacific
and Southern P!cinc fell back under re-
alizing Union hcifc reaching 1852 and
Southern Pacific s5A.
The rise I'm prices was resumed when
evidence OF a demand for Pennsylvania
developed and the strength of the market
again became general.
About noon Union Pacific was rushed
up 10 l74 and Pennsylvania was advanced
three points The general market was
extremely strong in sympathy bnt huc-
tuated sharply on profit taking by room
traders.
The scene OF excitement on ne stock
exchange following the announcement Of
the first dividend for Southern Pacific
common and an Increase of a per cent
in Union Pacific common stock had hard
ly been equalled since the memorable
struggle for control OF Northern Paclhc
five years ago.
The two Pachcs became the centre OF
interest and upon the announcement OF
the dividend there was a frantic rush OF
brokers 20 buy these two stocks. Many
OF them held orders for lots OF 10000
shares each. Room traders Joined IN the
scramble 10 get the stock before the
prices scared too high and In the con-
fused struggle which ensued little atten-
ton was paid to prices and the stocks
were taken at whatever point they were
ruling at that moment. At noon the eN-
citement was at "a boiling point with
Union Pacific stil advancing and the
trading then so heavy that the ticker was
four points behind in reporting the ad-

Detective Sergt. Flood Of New York

District Attorney Jerome to obtain an
interview with Hattie Forsyth concerning
certain statements attributed to her in
connection with the murder OF Stanford
White by Harry X Thaw. ano which she
has twice denied through The News /.

Mr.. Flood would not say much: but
Capt. Cannon. who assisted him. stated
that they found Miss Forsythe at the
home of her mother. Mrs Schmadl. at
the corner OF Westheld street and Elm

She denied the statement that Florenz
Ziegfeh attributed TO her when ne re
ceived a wireless message on steamer
that Thaw had shot White. but said she
did say II II was so il was too bad. as
she knew the parties
She said Zlegfeld was sore" on her.
as she refused to appear as a Partisan
model for him.
she repeated that she did not go TO
Whites studio on the night before the
tragedy. though other girls did.
She said she was willing TO meet Mr.
Jerome al any time and talk over the
case. Her opinion was that the murder
was done because Mrs. fhstw put her hus-
band in that frame of mind which would
prompt him 10 do IT, by talking to Mr.
White and causing Thaw TO think that
White was infatuated with her
She said she had heard White say he
was glad that Miss Nes1it was happily
married. She considered White "a very
nice man and good fellow"
