MITCHELL MINING
BROKE BADLY
Made a New Low Record
on Sales of 800
Shares.

The boom Of yesterday was of de-
cidedly cvancsCent character. In fact,
prices today in individual instances only
showed the existence of such a move
ment where there had been all strength
and enthusiasm. today there seemed
only hesitation, or worse still. indif-
ference.
Such was the record at todays meet
Ing of the Washington Stock Exchange.
LanstOn alone stood out as the bright
particular feature of the session. viii,
an advance OF a quarter point; RaE,
Way common felt the lack Of valuable
support from prominent broker, whose
absence was severely regretted. Greene
Copper lost much OF the advance of yes
terday. while Mitchell Mining went
tumbling down to the lowest figures Of
It's existence. There was not much IN
the way or pressure by the bear ele-
ment bu; Just a crumbling away Of
values with genuine lack of support
IN all except tho instance mentioned.
In The bond list the feeling was better
and $1,000 of the aRilway as found
ready market at good prices.
The plan Of the directors OF the
Mitchell Mining Company to increase
the stock from 10000 70 100000 to
complete some improvements at the
Company's property has had the usual
effect on the stock and during the last
ten days the stock has lost more than

RumOTs Of exciting news bearing on
Greene Consolidated Copper were spread
but no one apparently knew whence
they came or what they were about. All
had heard the Tumors and that was
enough. The stock took the news i'm a
besrish manner and was oppressed near
the close. The general opinion is that
something Is pending, but when Il is
announced il will not be "a beaTish

A chorus of Sure sure! We

Mrs. Corliss laugh and feel easy
as to the proposed trip at the
same time.
AS soon as the dinner dishes
we're out OF the way, Myra went
for the carryall, which was all
ready. Atthe hospital the matron
came herself to thank them all
for their assistance and the add
ed supplies, which we're much
needed. The injured men are
doing remarkably well, she went
on, but oh. / do wish you could

Mrs. Corliss had no time to ex,

order of aCome on! come on
caused her to go with the rest,as
Myra quickly tied old Dolly to a
post, saying she would never
bulge until told to. The next
moment all four were in the re-
.ception- room, and in came the
matron and young girl bearing
a clothes basket between them.
Then Mrs. Corliss and the rest

have no idea whence they came
or to whom they belong; some
stranger doubtless left them in

ing they would be taken in. They
will be taken care of and fed until
We can send them to founding
asylum. The great question is
how to clothe them, with all we
have to attend to already. We
keep all kinds Of needed garments
on hand for sizable children and
adults, but sWaddling clothes for
piccaninnies is something beyond,
our supply, and the matron
chuckled at the odd idea.
Mrs. Lester turned toward her
two girls. What had we better
do? she said Mrs. Corliss also
was all interest, every ache and
ailment forgotten.
Isn't there some store, she
where material could be
got for decent little outfits? I'll
gladly get it if there is.
Oh, yes, a big store, answered
ready Jennie; and marmee can
cut out any kind Of a pattern,
just give her pair of scissors

Very we'll; we'll drive around
again tomorrow night and bring
some little clothes with US, said
Mrs. Corliss, with a blitheness
that surprised herself.

went to the one abig" store of
