JAUNT IN PRAIRIE SCHOONER
Massachusetts Man Invents a Novel
Way Of Enjoying His Autumn
Outing Inexpensively

Special to The Herald.
BOSTON, Oct 24-Drifting over New
England in prairie schooner, travelling
the sun-scorched roads by day and
Matterson and his wife and family are
enjoying the outing of their lives while
en- route from Hubbardston, Mass to
Phoenix, R. l., where they are to VISIT
Mrs. Matterson's sister
For some time Mr.. Matterson has
been preparing an immense canvas COW
cred wagon, an exact counterpart of
the famous caravans that brought the
gold lusted hordes to the west In '49
and opened up the wastes and gardens
beyond the Mississippi in the early sos.
The interior is fitted like a miniature
household. Bunks are built along the
floor and up the sides, Compartments
for provisions are so arranged that
they become chairs for the travel
stained and weary during the day and
cooking utensils are within easy reach.
The entire outfit is drawn by four
massive horses, which are left to find
their fodder under their feet in true
western style. while they are tethered
with long ropes that give them ample
room to find choice bits within reach.
The journey will consume three weeks
and the Matterson family will spend all
their days living as nomads in the
midst of civilization. Prompted by
their pioneer instincts they will live
that life which is closest akin to ma
ture. All it's attendant hardships will
be theirs and many Of it's joys Their
meals will be cooked in the woods and
by the roadsides and will be savored
with the smoke of twigs and branches
They have carried with them small
tent in which they will sleep when the
weather is stormy, but when the nights
are clear a blanket will be their only
coverlet against the outside world.
Although they have been on the road
scarcely week they show the early
marks that nature always stamps on
those who seek her at the very heart.
They are all bronzed by the sun and
over their faces has spread the flush Of
perfect health. The children are brown
as berries and look for all the world
like young Apaches.
In speaking of the trip MIR. Natter
son said: II did not intend to make
this journey for health, but I now be-
lieve that nothing could have been
more beneficial. / merely wanted to en-
JOY my vacation IN novel manner and
have succeeded far beyond my expec-
tations / recommend similar journey
TO all those who are suffering from

NEW YORK, Oct. 2i-There was q
marked contraction in the volume OF
transa ctions on the stock exchange ana
q corresponding slump IN prices To-Day.
There was a general assumption that
bankers and strong finanoers felt op-
posed to active speculation at this time
and stood prepared to offer measures 70
obstruct any efforts to stimulate IT. Ihls
mderstandng In itself went a long way
toward discouraging any aggressive mar
ket operations so that active measures
TO obstruct them were not called Tor 10
a large extent The smaller proiessional
leaders had the market entirely to them
selves and their moderate TRANSACTIONS
had little effect on prices.
The beginning of the London session
was watched with keen attention owing
tended account in American securities
would be disclosed there and would be
forced out by loast weeks rise In the
Bank of -England's rate The rates for
carrying over holdings in the next ac-
count were stiffened according to Lon
don reports rising to Sq9 per cent on
Americans. There was also a very ac'
tive demand for cable transfers on the
New York exchange market in connec7
ton with the settlement which made
1t evident that the account in Ameri-
cans was being largely reduced. Lon
dons settlement continues until Friday,
which is pay day, and the waiting atti-
tude of lne New York market is partly
based on the desire to see the outcome
There was some selling Of stocks here
again for London on account Develop
ments in the money and exchange mar
kets were rather mixed Money on call
was easier here again. There was more
confidence in the effectiveness of the
treasury measure for stimulating the
bank note issues in rs.ieving the money
market. The sub-treasury account shows
a considerable withdrawal from the banks
since the last bank statement, but this
is on account of the return of gold re-
ceived from abroad, which had been ad-
vanced to the banks while in transit.
Foreign exchange here continued to work
higher
Occasional upward movements of special
stocks met with selling and the under
tone of the dull market was heavy. The
western storm and reports of concerted
demands on the railroads by switchmen
were of some effect in the depression.
The announcement of an increase in the
Norfolk & Western dividend was taken
advantage of to sell the general list and
the closing was weak, but still dull.
Bonds were irregular Total sales, par
value, $1,664000.
United States bonds were unchanged.

perience yesterday when Mrs. Andrew
L. JUL 24IS Colfax street. Evanston,

the desk in front of him.
BLESS me: it's q toothi Whose is
lt?" said the inspector.
Nobody knows" said Mrs. JUL, In
dignanty. II bought pound of car
amels at Berry's candy store the other
day and one of the caramels had this
tooth inside OF it, ! broke one of my
own teeth trying to bite into il. L

store today and demanded an explana-
tion. and what do you think he said %
Cant say" said the inspector.
Told me that the store couldn't be
held responsible for such Mistakes.
Reminded me that rats were found in
flour sometimes
Murray went to the candy store inn
mediately and bought samples Of Vari-
GUS kinds of candy intending to have
them examined for teeth and other for
eign substances.
During the day Assistant Food IN
spector Mason condemned 1000 pounds
of nut caramels which he found on a
counter at the Fair. A woman, who
ddi not give her name, reported that
she bought some Of the caramels and
that one Of them had worm in II,
Mason went TO the store and found
another worm crawling over the candy.
Don't you know that candy's rot
temp he asked the girl in charge OF
the counter.
why, / never examined it, she 20
piled. Dear me. II Is rotten, isn't IL 20
Inspector Murray is planning a spe-
cial crusade on candy shops as a result

labOrer will be contented and you
will hear less complaints about the
work, and there win De less DISPOSE
ton to roam from one place to an
other, which is a great annoyance to
the farmers during the busy season.
1t is as necessary for the farmers to
hire his help for stated time as it is
for him to have the proper farming
implements and stock to carry on suc-
cessfully his work. Therefore, when
he engages his men, he makes a con-
tract for stated time. The agree
ment is entered into willingly by both
parties, the farmer, as rule, acting
In good faith and feeling bound by
the contract, while the laborer, on the
slightest provocation and more often
without any, uses every means to vio-
late his agreement. In such cases we
should insist on the terms of the con-
tract being carried out, but on our
part we should be sure that the men
have been fairly treated and have no
just cause for disregarding their OBJ
legation. They expect and rightly de-
mand of you, strict compliance with
the contract and why should we not
expect the same from them?
In conclusion, | believe we should
aim to pay good men good fair wages
for honest, conscientious service, and
as little as we can for poor, indiffer-
ent service; work reasonable hours;
