HEARD ON THE B0URsE.

Ware & Leland-There is a firm I'M
dertone to the market and on further
declines believe in buying July wheat.
Logan-We would place buying or
ders to catch the market on such dips
as that of yesterday.
Price Current-Winter wheat condi-
lions not so generally favorable but
no material prejudice to outlook with
favorable weather Oats acreage prob
ably curtailed by rain. Corn blowing
retarded.
Barrel1-Wheat market appeared
badly strained at the close and it looks
as if some further setback in prices
would be had.
Bartlett-With the steady business
in new wheat for export and the buy
ing of the delivery here an oversold
condition may very easily develop.
Miller-Stocks are both cheap and
low and should be bought at every
favorable opportunity.

At last the captain of the Kansas
had the supreme satisfaction of hear
ing the clang of the electric bell in the
engine room as he put the telegraph
lever successfully to Stand by and
"Slow ahead" Gradually the ship
crept north, gaining way as the en-
gines increased their stroke and tho
full body of the ebb tide made its vol
ume felt. Round swung the Kansas to
the west just as the sun cleared the
highest peak of the unknown noun
tains. How good it was to feel the
steady thrust of the pistons, the long
roll of the ship over the swell!
But best of all was it to hear Elsie
tell how DR.. Christobal had handed
her a bulky packet in which she
found Courtenay's words Of farewell,
together with those wonderful letters
which fate had held back from her
twice already. They were only glowing
epistles from the hundreds of passen-
gers on the Florida, but six Of them
dies, all well lowered and eager to
give their charms and their-cash to the
safe keeping of the man who had
saved their lives. 1t was with refer
ence to some joking comment by Cour-
tenay on these missives that his sister
wrote to congratulate him on having
escaped matrimony under such condi-
lions.
Long before noon the Kansas clear
ed White Horse island Thenceforth
the run was due south until eight
bells, when for the second time within
a fortnight the captain set the course
south -40-east.
Elsie noted that Count Edouard de
Poincilit dined with the rest, sitting
beside Isobel CourtenaY put in an an
pearance later to partake Of a hasty
meal. He gave monsieur a black look,
but of course, catching Elsie's eye in
stantly, he meekly sat down and said
nothing-nothing, that is, of an I'M
pleasant nature
Crawling quietly into the strait of
Magellan at daybreak, the ship put
the narrows. Passing Cape San Isidro
she signaled her name, and it was
easy to see the commotion created by
her appearance. A real furore began
when she approached Sandy point. A
steam launch puffed off hastily from
the side of a Chilean warship. and the
commander brought the news that be
had been sent specially from Coronel
to search the western coast line thor.
oughly for the Kansas. He was about
to return that day to report his failure
to discover any trace of the missing
vessel, and he listened in amaze while
Christobal gave him a succinct history
Of the ships doings.
At the end Courtenay presented hin
with photograph of Elsie's chart, tc
which many additions had been made
by her under her lovers directions
The position of the shoal and of Pillar
rock, together with the set Of the tidal
current, was clearly shown, and 1t is

crveifx on Breast OF Young Irishman
Who Fell with Custer Was Means
Of Saving Body from
Mvtllstlon,

The following story OF the Custer
battle-ground was told to the writer BY
one who received 1t from an eye-wit-
ness OF the scene described--a witness
who, indeed. had q fatal interest In the
neld, since he himself had lost his IA
Their in that last heroic stand Of Custer
and his men.
Among the soldiers who were en-
gagged In fighting the Indians, in the
campaign of which the Custer episode
forms q part, were two young Irish
men who had been in the Papal Guard
ut Rome. Before they left for America.
the pope had given them his blessing
and presented each Of them with
gold crucinx upon which the mystic
beneficence of his prayers had fallen.
One of these young men was with
Custer when the general and all his
followers went down before the Zero
cious onslaughts OF the Indians. The
other was with the company which
was the first to arrive upon the field.
The scene of the battle was indie
scribably horrible. The CHASTITY nude
bodies of the dead lay about in man
ner to sicken the soul. They had been
stripped, scalped and mutilated &C
cording to the custom Of the savages.
The young Irishman wandered hope
lessly about in this fearful charnel
place in despair Of finding his friend.
All at once he discovered body
neither scalped nor stripped. but with
Its limbs decently composed as II by
n Kindly hand He reCOKufzed It as
that of his comrade. On the quiet
breast lay the gold crucifix OF the
pope, attached to the slender chain
on which 1t had always been worn.
The squaws engaged In stripping
the bodies had discovered the holy
emblem hung about the young mans
neck, and awed at the sight of 1t, had
feared to wreak their usual horrors
upon him. They had Strengthened
his limbs and left him without the dis
figuring marks of the tomahawk.
The friend Of the dead man took the
crucihx and a lock of his comrades
hair and sent them to the young mar
tyr's mother In Ireland.
1t was said by those VINO looked on
that the Indians who spared the
corpse because Of the crucinx must
have been those who had come under
the training of the famous Father De
Smet. since he had given the savages
among whom he worked such q deep.
though ignorant. reverence for the
cross. that they would never dare to
maltreat body on which 1t was found.
