Tone of Speculation Was Less Confident
 aud Led to Reaction.

l
 New York. Aug. 3-To-day's stock
 market became even more spotty than
 that of yesterday and the isolated in
 stances of strength were fewer. This
 showing affected sentiment in the
 course of the day, and the tone of the
 speculation became less confident and led to a sharp reaction. This change was derived more from the action of the market itself than from any outside development unless the slightly firmer tone of the call money market may have been partly responsible. Large in- portance was attached, however, to the fact that St. Paul and Union Pacific showed clear evidence of being fed out when attempts were made to bid them up, while Southern Pacific was given over to positive depression. The open Ing course of prices was quite generally downwards, but this was attributed to the influence of the earlier dealings in foreign markets, in which the troubled atfalrs of Russia were once more a. fac tor The lower opening here was al- most immediately repaired in syrnpa- thy with the sharp upbidding of St. Paul and Union Pacific. Their relapse was the cause of some misgivings over the vague information about "deal' III which much of the accumulation in these stocks has been based. The new features of strength proved poor substi- tutes for these favorite leaders of market sentiment. The rise in New York Central was connected with some revival of reports that a comprehensive merger of the Vanderbilt railroad prop critics was in contemplation. There was a Joint advance in a number of the north and south trunk line railroads which was associated with the govern ment's cotton report, which was ex- pected to be favorable, but which even exceeded speculative anticipation. The cotton carriers sold off on realizing, however, after the publication of the government report. Amalgamated Cop- per was helped by a sharp upward movement in the price of the metal in the London market. But these evil dences of strength did not prove wholly convincing in face of the manifest real- izing that was going on in other quar- ters of the market. It was poited out. also, that the first transactions which occurred in United States Steel after the dividend was declared which were in the opening dealings of Wednesday. were at the highest prices on the move, ment. The fl 1-2 touched then for an instant was not equalled afterwards. The impression of the profit taking ten dency of the days market was en- phasized by the response to the late point rise in St. Paul, which was met by an outpouring of stocks which car ried a long list of active leaders from to points below last night. There was very little recovery and the closing was easy.
 Bonds were irregular. Total sales par value, $1007.OOO.
 United States bonds were unchanged on call.

MAJOR MURPHY TRIAL

TWICHELL BUTTED IN
Ladies' Aid Society of ArgusviIIe
Handicapped by TwicheIls
New Gang Oratory.

How Treadwell Twichell made
speech at Argusville Saturday night is
the subject of gossip on the streets to-
day and the ridiculous efforts of the
ex-sheriff to monopolize an ice cream
social given by the ladies of orb of the
Argusville churches has occasioned no
little mirth.
1t appears that the new gang cam
paign committee had planned for Mr..
TWiehell to enlighten the Argusville
voters in a public address Saturday
night, but. in accordance with the
methods so far employed by the com4
mittee of keeping their plans and all
other matters pertaining to their
movement a complete secret. no one
at Argusville was advised of the pro-
posed address. So when Mr.. Twichell
arrived at Argusville there was no re-
ception committee to meet him. No
arrangements had been made for the
use of the hall for a public speech
and things looked exceedingly gloomy
for the disgruntled candidate for
United States marshal when someone
suggested that capital might be made
OF the ice cream social The ladies
mad rented the town hall and had ex-
pected to make considerable money
out of the social to apply on the church
debt
With his we'll known assurance, Mr.
IWlchell approached the ladies who
mad the social in charge and asked
permission to make an address before
the social commenced. Under the cir
cumstanees. the ladies found it hard 70
FeluSe and Mr.. Twichell was granted
PERMISSION to speak. 1t took him an
hour TO tell the voters how to cast
their ballots at the Forthcoming nri-
mary election and then the social nro-
ceeded. 1t is reported that MANY peo-
pie were driven away from the han bv
the prospects of having to listen to
the political speech and that the ladies'
lost considerable on their ice cream
social as a result.

THE CHURCH WINDOWS.
Presbyterians Have Let the Contracts
for Several Essentials.

The general building committee of
the Presbyterian church has awarded
the contract for the stained glass win
dows to Ford Bros. of Minneapolis.
There are to be nine large stained
glass windows in the auditorium be-
sides number in the chapel Most
of the designs have been selected by
the committee but few of the win
dcWs were left as it Is thought there
may be a desire on the part of some
of the church members to put in me-
mortal windows.
Contracts for the organ. lighting,
heating and furnishing of the new
church are still to be let and the gem
eral building committee will hold an
other meeting in a few days to take
up these matters.

A-prehistoric Monument,

In southern California, in the county
of San Luis Obispo, there is situated
one of the most remarkable prehis1ric
monuments known to the archaeolo-
gists. From a distance it looks like an
immense rock rising from the plains of
Carissa, but upon nearer approach it
is seen to be a temple of extraordinary
dimensions and of unknown antiquity.
The inner court has level floor 225
feet long and 1915 feet wide and the
ceiling is from 90 to 100 feet high, ac-
cording to situation. The building was
evidently used ) prehistoric man, but
for what purpose and how long since
no one knows. 1t has been suggested,
however, that it was either temple of
worship or the capitol of some ancient
government. The walls and portions
Of the ceiling are beautifully decorated
with paintings in colors red, white and
black, many of them supposed to have
some symbolic meaning.

ITo rE Continued


For many years one of the STAKES
was represented in the senate by a
man who possessed many fine qualities,
but who frequently injured the causes
he advocated and alienated those who
desired to be friendly by his sarcastic
manner both in speaking and in writ
ing. The senator had an intimate
friend who had written to him to urge
the appointment of another friend to a
position under the government. To this
letter the senator returned Il very sar-
castle answer, declining 1t the same
time to recommend the appointment.
1t is said that he never forgot the
mcrited rcbuke he received from the
friend who had suggested the appoint
mcnt.
MY Dear Senator-I think 1t would
be well for you to reserve your sar-
casm for the rapidly increasing nun.
Der of your enemies instead of Offering
it to the decreasing number Of your
friends, of whom l am one"
Soon after the senator received this
communication he brought about the
desired appointment.

chrIstm.a In England.

When Cromwell ruled England he Is
sued an edict against all festivities at
Christmas. The festival was altogeth-
err abolished, and tile displaying of hol-
ly and mistletoe and other emblems of
the happy time was held to be sedi-
tious. In 1914 the long parliament
commanded that Christmas day should
be observed as strict fast, when all
people should think over and dcplorc
the great sin Of which they and their
forefathers had been guilty in making
merry at that season. This act SO pro-
voked the people that on the following
natal day the law was violently re-
sisted in many places. Though these
scenes We're disgraceful, they served
their purpose and put an end to an un-
just order When Charles III. regained
the throne the populace once more

Fed Them on Stale News.

In the British arctic expedition of
1875 one OF the chaplains had file of
the London Times twenty years old,
containing the Crimean war reports.
One copy was given out to each ship
daily. The officers had it first, then it
went to the forecastle, and soon every
one was as keen about the news as If
the war had been proceeding. The
clergyman in control of the press was
besousht TO issue an evening edition,
and when Sevastopol was about to be
taken excitement ran so high that the
newspapcc otlice-a locker-was almost
stormed. The editor, however, was
firm and continued with his daily issue,
the interest being kept up to the end
Of the expedition.
