As the clearing hour passed without trouble, sentiment in Wall street was decidedly relieved. The absence of failures on the stock exchange, all though there was a small suspension on the Consolidated, was regarded as little short of remarkable. This was attributed to the fact that there has been very little buying or selling by brokers this week, except for cash.

Much relief was felt when It was announced that loans made to brokers on Thursday by the $30, 900, 1000 bank CTS pool, headed by J. P. Morgan < Co, would stand as made at 20 per cent. There had been no quotation on money up to noon in the loan crowd. 1t was said. however, that the leading banking interests would see to it that there would be no repetition of Thurs days squeeze under any circum- stances.

QUEER SIDE OF JAPAN.
Odd Faith Exhibited in the Mikado's
Domains.

In Japan the lower orders OF lie
not only make war and supply meat,
but evince other peculiarties that rem
der them invaluable concomitants OF
civilization. few days ago num-
Der of people were seen gazing intent
ly toward the upper limbs Of large
pine tree. Stopping to learn the Sc
cret of this unusual interest, man
was observed descending the tree,
while crow was furiously cawing and
beating about his head; then It was
seen that the trespasser had possessed
himself of one of her brood, an unpfe-
possessing little chick that no one
could be imagined to fancy for pet.
Asked what he intended doing with
the young crow, he replied that 1t
made excellent medicine for the
blood: "Chi-no-michi-no kusuri," to
use his exact words To insure the
efficacy of the medicine, he explained,
the bird must be taken before 1t leaves
the nest, ii possible, or. If it has left
the nest, before it gets to where 1t
can drink water; for, he asserted, II
1t has of itself taken water, 1t loses
all virtue as blood-cure. The pro-
cess of preparing the remedy is, first,
to kill the crow and, without cleaning
it, to encase the body in an alright
covering Of cement or clay The
mould is then baked for two or three
days in a hot FIRE. When the clay
crust is removed, naturally the crow
will be found to be black, q lump OF
pure charcoal This is pulverized and
converted into pills OF the pink" or
der, which are very popular here as q
blood regulator. He reminded his in
terIocutors that the medicine was very
rare because Of The dificulty Of tind-
ing q crow that had not taken water.
The man was perfectly sincere, and
appeared extremely proud Of his sue
cess in having secured the bird. He
was reluctant to leave the tree lest
there should be another one on the
ground somewhere.
Those who, since the brilliant
achievements Of the Japanese Red
Cross Society in the late war, are &C
customed to take for granted the adj
vance Of medical science in this conn
try. will, Of course, bear in mind that
the practitioner under consideration
had not at this time acquired member
ship in any legally recognized thera-
peutic fraternity; but probably his
nostrum was quite as effective as
much Of the medicine that is sold b

TrIhute to LIZ. A. Y. Harper.

Mrs. Emily Moore Harper, wife Of
Dol. A. Y. Harper, slied at her home at
Biloxi, Mississippi, saturday morning,
April 9th. 1907,
She was married to Col, Harper In
1867 at Oxford, Mississippi. and this
was the fiftielh anniversary of their
marriage.
The daughter of q prominent ply
aician, Dr. Moore of Huntsville, Ala
b1ma, every resource was laid under
tribute to adorn and equip her brill
liant and promising mentality. A
woman of rare mental endowment,
she was thoroughly educated under
the old high ideal regime, and was
thoroughly cultured along all the
literary lines. To these brilliant
adornments of the mind were added
the charms and graces that bore the
rich heart colUring that made the
daughters of the South women of re.
finement and exalted character, and q
heightened patriotism that famed on
all their country's affairs through four
years Of the most trying and bloody
wars Of modern timesl
met her first in Handsome,
dignified, in bearing and modestly un-
conscious of her superior Intellectual
ity, she impressed me at once AZ q
woman OF rare personality and ac-
complishments, and as one who would
be equal to expectation on al occa-
eions.
During the war period, while her
husband was on the bloody field Of bat
tie and rendering conspicuous service
at Shiloh and other places, she dis
closed that high womahly courage,
devotion, self.denial, and sacrifice
that has gloriHed the Southern woman
through all that dramatic experience
through which women suffered and
worked alone, and the trying years
which followed the war when we were
al in desoIation and poverty. there
was dinused the softenlng spiritual

MAN, FISH
BEAR AND
HORNETS

News comes from Siuslaw country
that James Pumphry had quite a
thrilling experience one day last
week while fishing in the Siuslaw
river James was standing on log
which overhung deep hole Of
water, when he hooked large FISH
which caused his fish line to part so
suddenly that James was unable to
maintain his balance and fell into
the river and as the banks were very
precipitous, It was with difficulty
that he was able to gain solid foot
ing. But the worst of 1t all; James
had no extra change of clothing and
was compelled to content himself by
sitting by a fire while his clothing
was drying, while he was thus en-
gagged, he was attacked by a large
bear and compelled TO climb a tree
in order to save himself, and as his
time TO make a selection was short,
he ascended to the branches of the
first tree he came in contact with
and unluckily for him a colony OF
hornets had taken up their abode in
the same tree, and they appeared 10
be pleased with James visit as they
all gave him warm reception. So
things were pretty warm for James.
but he had to make the best of the
situation, so he ceized the limb and
succeeded in breaking 1t loose from
the tree and letting II fall to the
ground. Bruin, evidently thinking
the nest his prey, Immediately seized
II and as the hornets saw how thei.
house was being handled. turned
their attention 10 the bear and gave
him such a hot reception that he was
glad 10 take 20 shelter, leaving James

MAIL

Nome, Wednesday, July ga
lspecial to the Seattle Times under
the above date has the following
story:
One of the most terrible tragedies
that has ever occurred on northern
trails, by which George A. Carpenter
a wellknown newspaper man, lost his
life. by which Robert Hunter lost
several toes, one arm and the heel
of one foot, and by which Billy Vint
was disfigured for life by losing his
nose. his toes and the fingers of one
hand-three of the sturdiest and
bravest men who ever crossed an
Alaskan trail-has been revived.
Sam Magids and Tom Roust, who
have just reached here from Candle
creek by way of the Noxapaga divide,
discovered the sled used by George
A. Carpenter, and in which, when the
party fed for their lives through the
binding billiards, was left the mail
that has, perhaps, caused many a
heartache and many a disappoint-
ment.
The sled was found at a point
about seven miles from the point
where now stands the Eldorado
creek roadhouse and about half a
mile from the winter trail which
crossed Berry creek, and its position
bore mute testimony to the fact that
the hardy men were driven from
their course by the fury of the blind
ing blizzard. The sled had been COW
cred by a tarpaulin, and the mail had
been carefully wrapped in one Of the
heavy coats, which was left behind
when the travellers started on their
march for life or death. Some dog
food and bacon, in an advanced stage
of decomposition, was also found;
and among other things was a Water
bury watch which, on being wound,
worked perfectly, and has been work
Ing ever since. The watch is now
