COMEDY IN ELEVATED CAR
One Young Woman Gets Seat That
 Had Been Vacated for Another

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 4.---On one side of an elevated car, half way between the cross seats and the door, sat two young men crowding together in one seat, this to the discomfort and annoyance of the people sitting on either side of them, but to their own youthful en. joyment as they sat there and laughed and talked.
 And then there came in A young woman, who finding no seat vacant, moved forward until she came to the cross seats, against the back of which she leaned, as women are accustomed to do, to avoid the necessity of reaching up to and hanging on by strap. See ing her standing, the two young men sitting happily in the single seat, con ceived the felicitious fancy of giving up their seat to her.
 So they arose, and moved together a step or two forward, and lowing to- gether they jointly offered their seat to the young woman, who stood leaning against the back of the cross seat, but she failed to avail herself of this dou- ble proffered courtesy, which seemed strange to some but not so to others, who sat on the opposite side of the car where they could see the whole per formance.
 Just as the two young men rose and stepped forward step or two, thus leaving their seat uncovered and unpro- tected from that direction, there came into the car through the door behind them another young woman, who, sec ing the vacant seat advanced toward itit, not precipitately, but still prompt ly and with precision.
 This was why the young woman standing leaning against the back seats did not move forward promptly when the two young men offered the seat to her. She could see past the two young men who stood facing her and see the young woman coming in at the door, and she knew the newcomer would beat her to the seat.
 But it is not to be supposed that the newcomer, who had taken the seat, thereby unintentiona.ly depriving her standing sister of it, took it away from the one for whom it had been vacated knowingly.
 No. Far from it. Tho newcomer simply looked upon the ono vacant seat in an otherwise filled car as a little piece of good fortune.

 When on my first visit to Italy after an absence of twenty-five years, fur nished though l was with passport from Washington with the great red seal of state and with my naturaliza- lion papers. I was amazed when 1 was arrested and put in den of prison reeking with filth and vermin because l had paid no attention to the Italian jaws regarding the matter of military obligation. 1 was under the impress sion. as l am sure many Americans are, that when once l had sworn or my allegiance to the king of Italy and had become aD American citizen 1 would be recognized as such and not be required to fulfill the obligations of an Italian citizen.
 The experience was not amusing. and yet as look back upon 1t there was ridiculous side to 1t. When with great dignity and pride I pulled from my pocket my passport expected to see the little Italian official gasp for breath and humbly beg my pardon. Imagine "y htttihSS "hth.

The next day was taken before the prefect of the province. and then it was learned that I was not obliged to serve the regular three years in the Italian army. not because I was an American citizen that was not recognized but because was the only male In my family The Italian theory is "once an Italian always an Italian" The government does not recognize the change of nl. legiance on the part of any of it's sub jects.--Antonio Mangano in Charities and the Commons"

STOCK MARKET
 FOOLS BROKERS
SCHEME TO BOOST PRICES AND
 UNLOAD ON LAMBS AFTER ELECTION AND BUY BACK IS POSTED BY STEADY DEMAND.

NEW YORK, November 4.-The stock market today demonstrated a striking capacity for reaching a con: elusion beyond the prevailing assump- ton, and the assumption has become al- most universal in the financial district that the ripening of the occasion to which speculation has been looking for ward to would be accomplished by a harvesting of fruits.
 It has been pointed out with great precision by q multitude of advisers that to act with the course of the stock market was to be an immense bulge in prices, helped by manipulative tactics on the part of powerful packers of the movement, thus making new outside buyers buy the highest priced stocks and giving the largest profits to inside sellers.
 Afterward, the pressure of realizing sales would tell on the price levied and a sharp reaction must be expected un- til gathering force sufficient to resume an upward movement.
 The extent of advances established for Americans in London, before trad ing began in New York today, confirm ed this view iu the minds of many op. orators iu stocks, and they acted in accordance with this view. Selling from those sources was in such volume, in fact, that few of tho opening prices were as high as they had been in Lon. don earlier. Instead of advancing af- ter the opening, the market gave way slowly and on a volume of sales which had not been seen before this year. It was the subsequent action of the mar. ket that belied common opinion. After a momentary pause at the end of the first hour, when buying orders seemed to have been exhausted and prices quite generally ap oint below the opening high level.
 Buying for the rest of the day was persistent and determined and ranged over wide fed in the list.
 The closing tone of the stock market was animated and buoyant, and the las, prices were close to the highest of the day. That level was the highest in the history of United States Steel pre- fcrred and Southern Pacific.
 Bonds were firm. Total sales, par value, sS,090,000. United States bonds were unchanged.

PhIN AND PLEASURE.
The ssnsstions That Come When a
 Person is Hanged.

The ssnsstions That Come When .
 Person is Hanged.
 This Is the way Rev. J. T. Mann in Spare Moments describes the way fl feels to be hanged:
 At Fort Barrancas, Fla, on April 4, 1868, was hanged as a Confederate spy. spent four minutes physically and spiritually between earth and heaven. Then a Yankee sergeant. be. lieving me to be the wrong man. cut me down.
 My first sensation when the barrel was kicked from under my feet was that a steam boiler inside me was about to explode. Every vein and blood vessel to and from my heart seemed charged with an oppressive fullness that must find an avenue of escape. The nervous system through out its length was tingllng with a painful. pricking sensation the like of which never felt before or since. Then followed the sense of an explo- sion. as if a volcano had erupted. This seemed to give me relief. and the pain gave way to pleasnrable feeling. one very desirable could 1t be secured with out death. With this sensation light broke in upon my sight. a light of milky wilderness, yet. strange to say. SO transparent that 1t was easier to pierce with the eye than the light of day. Then came Into my mouth a taste of sweetness the like of which l have never since known. And felt myself moving on. with conscious ness of leaving everything behind. Then I heard the sweetest music, and 1t seemed that more than thousand harps led in each part. accompanied by myriads of voices.
 And the sensation of coming back to life after I had been cut down was just as painful as the first feeling of hanging. IL was acute torture. Every nerve seemed to have pain of Its own. My nose and fingers were seats of the most excruciating agony. IE half an hour the pain was all gone. but I would not go through the experience again for tbe wealth of the Indies.

Russian Marriages.

The celebration of Russian mar riage sometimes extends over three days. At the wedding festivities the bride is expected to dance with the men one after another until she drops with sheer fatigue. It Is a matter of pride with her to keep going as lone as possible. and 1t Is not unusual tc find bride dancing gayly after three days and nights of vigorous frolic. When girl Is dancing with man she always holds his pipe. It would he regarded as extremely rude if a ma:s should continue to smoke his pine ir such clrcumstances.--Lond Tit Bits.

Market News

The political prophets of Wall street were not mistaken in their forecasts of the presidential election, although the extent of Taft's victory exceeded their expectations The result had already been discounted to a great extent prior to November ,, but nevertheless the market yesterday responded to the "good news' with great display of strength. Union Pacific, Southern Pa cifc and Steel common rose to new high prices for the year, while Steel preferred made new high record. Both railroad and industrials wore strong sll day and many of the coppers shared in the advance. Of the local stocks, Old Dominion sold at 54IR, Ari. zona Commercial 35H, Miami l2, Globe Consolidated 2, Superior & Boston loh @l0&.
 How long the advance will continue without reaction is question that is perplexing the average trader, and none but the msnipulators know. Many stocks are considered too high, and there is good reason for the belief among brokers that there will soon be turn in the market. We are of the opinion, however, that tho general course of the market for some tune will be upward and that the dividend paying copper stocks are a purchase on every reaction.
 It may be Hartman luck or just tho result of good management and wise planning, but whichever it ia, the liar riman companies appear to have been the first to catch the step. There arc many things about Hartman that the public does not like, but take it as . whole, the country will eventually do- eide that he has done much less harm than Mir. Roosevelt and far more good. European copper consumption for the first nine months of 1908 was 23i 200 tons, against l75,so0 year before. an increase of 3l per cent. Total imports were 32s,400 tons, against 234, 900, e06,- 900 coming from America, as ll5,s00. English consumption increased from 45,700 to 60,300 tons; French, from 3S,600 to 47,600; German for eight months from l7,400 to l01 300 tons. Since January l, stocks in England have increased 23,e0O tons and $500 in France. Coming identification of part of the German state railways is expect cd to stimulate largely copper con. sumption in Germany.
 No railroad ever published such re markable statement of earnings as that issued yesterday from the offices of the Hartman Pacifcs. It is difficult 10 say whether the Union Pacific or the South ern Pacific return is the moro remark able. In the one case an increase in gross during September of $i64,o ,o00, was swollen into an expansion in net of no less than sl,4l6,000; in the other decrease of $455,000 in gross was transformed into an increase in net of .over one million dollars-sl, ,062 ,629, to be exact. These extraordinary figure, will not allay the distrust that has arisen regarding the genuineness of the savings reported of late by the Hartman roads. The September fig. ures of these two companies completely overshadow the achievements of 1ny and every other road. It will be seen h.., l.
