HE CALLED A
LAWSON BLUFF
But WALL STREET MAN FAILED
TO GET A LOOK AT THE CARDS.

There is well known member of
the financial community who is
chuckling over having called a Law
son bluff all by himself, and finally
forced the Boston advertiser to a
showdown. 1t came about in this
way:
Some time ago, when the investi-
cation of trading methods in the
stock and commodities markets was
declared by Governor Hughes, Mr.
Lawson announced in a large adver-
tisement in several financial publica-
lions that he would sell 20 stock ex-
change seats at 100000 each, about
$4,000 lower than the last sale.
The Wall street man thought that
if Mr.. Lawson had any seats at his
disposal it was a good thing to pick
up a few cheap. AS membership of
the exchange is limited and all the
seats are taken the only transfer pos
sible is personal transfer subject to
the approval of the exchange authori-
ties and any block of seats under a
single control would be rarity. A
letter was sent to Boston offering
to buy one or more of the seats on
the terms quoted. There was no an
swer. The Wall street man insisted,
writing again and again. Still no
answer came
Finally, within the last few days,
he has received a reply from Mr..
Lawson's secretary. 1t said that all
of the seats covered by his recent
offer had been sold. The Wall street
man and several of his friends on the
exchange are now awaiting with some
interest to see when the transfers
are made. They do not expect, how
ever, that the exchange will be dis
turbed by any invasion of Lawson's
customers in the near future.-New
York Times

AMERICAS POLICY IN CHINA.

, Under President Mckinley the
question of the dismemberment
/ of China became burning one.
There was a tendency among Euro
/ ean powers to divide up the country
/ to a considerable extent by creating
spheres of influence. Secretary
Hay put a stop to that and brought
all the powers to an approval of the
American policy of letting China
alone and opening her up to the
peaceful pursuits of commerce in
which all nations should have the
same opportunity. 1t was a signal
triumph of vigorous American diplo-
macy, marvel in it's way.
Not for a moment has the United
States amended that policy. This
agreement with Japan merely makes
it all the more binding. Japan writes
down on paper in an official manner
her determination to go with the
United States in maintaining the I'M
ity of China and developing the COM
merce of the Far East. If that pol
icy is ever menaced, no matter from
what direction, Japan agrees to con-
suit with the United States. The
powers were sounded regarding this
agreement while it was under con-
sideration and in every instance gave
it their encouragement.
Thus the Roosevelt administration
has taken a step that makes for uni
versal peace so far as the Far East
is concerned. There will be no par
titioning of China after this. China
is left to work out her destinies with
out fear of encroachments upon her

MUST KISS WITH JUDGMENT.

kissing is all right if INDUCED in
with judgment" This dictum by
DR.. Chaplin may set at rest the minds
of those fussy sanitarians who see
germs everywhere, and believe that
Death rides on every passing breeze
He turks in every flower
But more romantic persons, young
in years or in feelings, will quarrel
with the qualification. They have no
desire to kiss with Judgment" an
unattractive cousin or maiden aunt
It was Marlowe's Faustus who set
forth in matchless verse the rapture
of kiss from the mostbeautifu1 wo-
man in the world.
Was this the face that launched a
thousand ships,
And burnt the topless towers of IL
ium?
Swee Helen, make me immortal with
kiss.
Who will say that there was iudg-
ment in this aspiration? The kisses
of Helen brought misery in rhe end.
A mere physical contact of lips,
indeed, means nothing of itself We
nay be sure that the kiss which Ben
Jchrson asked to have :efi within
the cup was sweeter for than any
auctual kiss bestowed with judg-
meLt.' kissing goes by favor, says
the cid proverb, which is only another
way of saying that a kiss gains in
value by the caprice by Which it is
bestowed. How perfunctory is the
salute sanctioned by duty. Martial
=, that he did not car, for. kisses
rr less he had stolen them in sritc
g. resistance. but this is perhaps a
counsel of perfection. 3ei les must
there not be a degree of consent from
the party of the second part to make
the bliss complete? Is not the kiss
lightly exchanged a kind of dead sea
fruit?
And the best and the worst of this is
That neither is most to blame,
If you've forgotten my kisses.
And I've forgotten your name
Such kisses may not show judg-
ment: but then, on the other hand,
they leave no sting behind them.

Guinevere. ''in the boyhood of the

HEROIC DOG NOW
IN WENATCHEE
MISS JEAN CHANCE OF THE
ROOSEVELT HOTEL HAS DOG
WITH HER WHICH SAVED HER
LIFE.

Many volumes have been written
on the question of whether dogs have
souls or any kind of intelligence.
Every once in a while an incident oc-
ours which proves more than volumes
of learned discussion. At the pres
ent time there is a dog in this city
which has been eulogized the world
over by the leading newspapers as a
real hero and the possessor of re-
markable intelligence. In acknowl-
edgement of his heroic action of saw
ing two lives, this dog now wears a
big brass collar which was given him
by the Humane Society of Columbus,
Ohio. His owner, Miss Jean Chance,
is now in Wenatchee visiting her sis
ter, Mrs J. J. Griffith, former pro-
prietress of the Roosevelt hotel.
at was four years ago." said Miss
Chance this morning to reporter of
the World, that | came to the city
Vi oIlO, anu GU at
large rooming house. 1 had my
dog with me-his name is Smiler-
and was very much disguised at the
management of the hotel because
they would not allow the dog to re-
main in my room. He was most af-
fectionate animal and my most con-
slant companion. But it was impos-
sible to find desirable accommodate
tions elsewhere and Smiler was domi-
ciled in the cellar
Several times | had noticed the
fumes of gas about the house, and
had called the attention of the man
ager to this fact, but nothing was
done to look into the matter Final
ly, | was awakened one night by a
scratching sensation on my face, but
only aroused myself from deep slum-
Der by great effort. Feeling blood
on my face, it dawned over me at
last that l was being asphyxiated by
gas. Then I saw Smiler on the floor
at my bedside, and realized that he
had been trying to arous me. BY ex-
IRENE effort | was able to crawl to
the room adjoining, where a gentle
man was sleeping, and, after beating
him violently, awoke him from the
dangerous slumber. Opening a win
dow, l yelled with all my might, and
at the same time flames and smoke
burst forth on all sides. Very soon
the brave firemen rescued us from
the burning building, and we were
placed in the hands of those who
soon revived us.
''Smiler was in the worst condi-
ton of all His fine coat of black,
curly hair was burnt off, his feet were
burned to the bone kind-hearted
people sent him to the hospital, and
he was cared for there three weeks
as attentively as though he were the
most distinguished citizen of Column
bus. From all parts of the city, flow
ers were sent every day, and the
newspapers kept the public constantly
informed of his condition"
Smiler is now seven years old.
Miss Chance never thinks of going
anywhere without her pet

She looked so lovely as she sway'd
The rein with dainty fingertips,
A man had given all other bliss
And all his worldly worth for this,
To waste his whole heart in one kiss
Upon her perfect lips.
Lancelot had his desire, and was
not happy having it; but prayed God
to send sudden angel down to fling
him deep in the forgotten mere

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

Chicago, Nov. 13.--Wintery weather in the northwest was one pf the fac. tors responsible for sharp break in wheat prices here today. The market closed weak at net declines of %60 T-Sc to 1c. Oats were affected by the slump in wheat and closed easy, but corn closed firm. Provisions were again excited and strong and closed Dc to soc higher than the final figures pf the previous session.
 The wheat market was weak all day owing to persistent hammering by bears and to lot of week end liquida- ton. This selling continued heavily against the market as support was at no time vigorous News of the day was almost exclusively in favor of the bears.
 Wet weather generally west of the Mississippi river and an official pre- dicti'on forecasting rains tonight and tomorrow throughout the entire corn belt caused considerable firmness in the corn market.
 Trading in oats was of small volume and the market was inclined to sag because of the weakness of wheat. An attempt of shorts in January pork to cover caused Ia sharp bulge throughout the entire provision mar l,at. At the high point January pork was up 5oe compared with yesterdays final figures. The demand was based on the sensationaaly light receipts of hogs now being marketed throughout the west.
 The total movement this week az. gregated about S6S,000 head, against s2S.SO0 last week. During the day January pork sold between 21.55c and 22c.
 The market closed at almost the top

MARKET NEWS.
NEW YORK STOCKS.

New York, Nov. 1s.-The copper stocks furnished the object of specu- lative diversion today in the dullness which held t-e general list. The re- turn from abroad of a number of cap italists who are credited with a de- ciding voice on the negotiations be- heved to have been under way for cancellations of copper interest, was made the occasion for the demonstra- ton in that group.
 Guarded admissions by those gentle men were interpreted by the specula- tive element as confirmation of the reports on the subject, which have been in circulation for several weeks, but no authoritative announcements were made.
 This movement acted as a tonic on lhe stock market, which was disposed to wait to see the complexion of the bank statement.
 Bonds were heavy. Total sales, par value, were $2,043.O00.
 United States bonds unchanged on call from last week.

After the first call the decline was widened to 6@7 points and the market acted soft, but just when a slump seemed imminent the forecast for the western cotton belt was post- cd It predicted wet and cold and some snow over Sunday and caused an immediate reversal in the tone of the market Shorts rushed to cover Tn large numbers and bulls bought freely also, with the result that prices were sent up IS to 2l points on the more active deliveries.
 At this level they were il to 15 points over yesterdays close. In spite of considerable liquidation by longs the advance was maintained until the end of the session, the close being steady at net advance of 10 to IA points.
 Futures this week closed 45 to 55 points higher than last weeks close At one time the prices were nearly %c higher than last week, but from Monday on bears were aggressive and they managed to reduce the lead of the bulls by quarter cent. The ad- vance of the early part of the week was in the nature of reaction from the 1eeline of last week.
 Bears derived their strength later In the week from reports that the Texas crop was doing much better than expected, but right at the end of the week prospects of cold and wet weather over Sunday in Texas ea.s 'eu much nervousness among the short and rise in prices.
