A very early equivalent of similar sound and purpose to the tallyho with hounds appears in quaint old song printed in 118o called 'sThe Death of Reynard, the 0ox," by Sir William Young. He quickly found the cover
 Too hot for him to stay, And soon Ned CaIlet spied him
 Stealing across the way.
 '~Tolle auxi" then Callet cried
 And gave a gfbbet shrfll
 He tossed his brush as who should
 say.

re Verafct.

Records of the ancient city of Cor Eeana. founded in 164o, better known It the present time as York Harbor, Me. contain many quaint and unusual ptories of the early life of the town.
 At the entrance to York harbor a bold promontory known as Stage neck extends some distance into the sea, from which formerly in stormy weath- sr temporary light in the form of a lantern hoisted upon an upright pole was displayed as a warning to mari ners.
 One dark winter night a sloop was wrecked on these rocks. A survivor on being questioned about the catastrophe said:
 'sThe vessel struck, turned over on her side, and the skipper and another barrel of whisky rolled overheard"
 The local coroner was- summoned, md this somewhat startling verdict was returned:
 We find that the deceased fell from the masthead and was Killed He rolled overheard and was drowned. He aoated ashore and froze to death, and the rats eat him up aiiveT-Harpex's Weekly.

On. M.a,. Iaea of a Joke


 'HThis artificial limb business Is get ting to be something wonderful" said a Cleveland man. When man can wiggle the fingers of an artificial hand 1t is uncanny. Practical jokes of terri bIe effect are possible with the artificial limb, and the victim is such in the true sense of the word I saw a man in Denver about three weeks ago who walked up to the hotel clerk and in a friendly way reached across the coun- ter to shake hands. Then he wheeled away and left his hand in the grip of the clerk. The clerk fainted-actualiy tainted, although he realized, I believe, that the hand he held was but an arti- fieial one The man who wore it had devised a scheme by which he might throw 1t of by pressing a spring The delight he took in the joke ceased when fhe victim collapsed" Sen ttnel

A traveller says that curious weak ness of grOwnup Moors is the love of eating newly baked bread The caid of Azemmoor, in Morocco. discovered that old bread was thrown away as waste. To waste food Is serious of fense in the eyes of Moslem- The cafd of Asemmoor therefore issued a by1aw prohibiting the baking of bread upon one day in each week. The citi- zens, he declared, must eat up the bread already baked, and he fixed Wednesday as the ''bitalah," or holi- day.

DOWNWARD TURN 0N STOCK EXCHANGE
 YESTERDAY
SOUTHERN PACIFIC LEADS YUM BILE ON ANNOUNCEMENT OF
 STOCK RETIRING
CALL MONEY RATE HARDENING
WHEAT HAS NERVOUS DAY, AND COPPER LOSES GROUND IN
 FOREIGN MARKET

NEW YORK, June 9.-The decisive downward turn taken by the price movement of stocks today inclined spec ulative sentiment to take account of unfavorable factors, but there was It. tie that was positively unfavorable in the news.
 The rapid decline in Southern Pacific upon the announcement of the much heralded plan to retire the preferred stock was taken as an object lesson of the extent to which favorable devel- opments have been discounted in spec ulation.
 The slight rise in the call money rate was ascribed to applications for New York city bonds. An active demand has sprung up for funds on time and rates are advancing.
 Discounts also rose in London and Paris today. The general money sit, uation therefore is shaping itself quite definitely away from ease. The az gressive rise in Union Pacific helped the late restoration of the price level

Why Our Railroad. Are Marrow o.us

Why Our Railroads Are NATION Gauge.
 Why are all railroads built on the standard gauge of four feet eight and one-half Inches? The makers of the first locomotives thought only of put. ting their machines upon the tram ways already in existence, and from that followed a very interesting and curious result. These tram lines natu- rally had exactly the width prescribed by the strength of one horse. By mere inertia the horse cart gauge es.ab- lished Itself in the world. and every. where the train Is dwarfed to a scale that limits alike its comfort. power and speed. Because there is so much capital engaged and because of the dead power of custom 1t is doubtful if there will ever be any change In tLis gauge. Still. it might be worse. If the biggest horses had been Shetland po- nics our railway carriages now would only be wide enough to hold two per sons side by side and would have a maximum speed of twenty miles an hour. There a hardly a reason aside from this artiquated horse why the railway coach should not be nine or ten feet wide-that is, the width of the smallest room In which people can live in comfort and furnished with all the equipment of comfortable cham. bers.- Atlantic.

CHICAGO, June 9.--Chicago s first police woman went on duty this after noon, and within few hours after re- ceiving her star and revolver, she had her purse stolen by pickpockets.
 Mrs. Josephine Sullivan was duly sworn in at the City hall shortly after noon, and is now full-fedged police woman of Chicago, and has all the rights and privileges given to Chicago $ special police.
 She had just finished her afternoon assignment of detecting pickpockets and sneak thieves in the large State-street department stores, and gone to her home, when she discovered her pocket book was missing. Frantically she searched through her handbag, then, running to her room, sine looked under all the pillows, but could find no trace of the purse.
 Suddenly she recalled man who sat slose to her in the crowded street car on her way home. The nshe recalled the peculiar actions of another man who sat next to her on the ear. She was convinced that she had been rob bed and so reported to headquarters.

A chicken is natural fool about snake and will walk around and pick at one as matter of curiosity This sidewinder struck each one in the head as it came close and they d,ec within & minute of being struck. Side winders are very plentiful and the val ley and the railroad yards are full oi them. Because they strike without warning they are more dangerous thar the big rattlesnakes, which always give warning before they strike.

GRAIN QUOTATIONS

CHICAGO, June 9.-Wheat was nervous the greater part of the day and the prevailing sentiment was one of bearishness. This heaviness was more noticeable in July than in the more de- ferred months and was due largely to increased offerings of new wheat to ar rive.
 Reports from southeastern Missouri claimed harvesting will begin the lat ter part of this week and inspired ad- ditional sales of the July option. Liv- erpool was disappointment to the bulls, the market being barely steady owing to the reports of general rains in Argentine and southern Russia.
 July closed at ll9 Is.
