The "Picket."

The picket was generally inflicted on
cavalry and artillery men and was a
singularly brutal bit Of torture. A long
post. near which stood a stool. was
driven into the ground. The delinquent
was ordered to mount the stool. and
his right hand was fastened to a hook
in the post by a moose, drawn up as
high as it could be stretched. round his
wrist A stump the height Of the stool,
with its end cut to round and blunt
point. was also driven into the earth
close to the post. Then the stool was
taken away, and the sufferer had moth
ing to rest his bare feet upon but the
stump. which. though it did not usu-
ally break the skim" says Captain
Crosse. put him in great torture, his
only means Of relief being by resting
his weight on his wrist. the pain of
which soon became intolerable." One
can very well believe him, especially
when he makes the addition that q
man was not infrequently left to stand
in this position for half an hour, al
though the orthodox period Of endur-
ance was fifteen minutes. - London

THE SPIDER.
It Differs From an Insect In Five Main
Particulars

It Differs From an Insect In Five Main
Particulars.
The spider is not an insect though
probably nine people out of ten would
class it under this term. With scor-
pions and mites spiders form a class in
the animal kingdom known as arach-
nida. This name is derived from a
mythical parsonage called Arachne,
the daughter of a purple dyer of Ly-
dia. who was tabled to have chal-
lenged Minerva to a trial of skill in
spinning. So indignant was the god
dess at this act of holiness that she
forthwith transformed the hapless
challenger into a spider, presumably
in order that she might have the best
possible opportunity Of practicing the
art on which she prided herself SO
much.
Spiders differ from insects in FIVE
main particulars. Their eyes are SIM
pie instead of compound, they have
eight legs in place of six, they do not
pass through the metamorphoses
which are characteristic of insects.
they have no antennae and their
breathing is accomplished by means of
organs which combine the functions
of lungs and gilIs instead of by tubes
pervading their bodies. These points
of distinction are sufficient to deter
mine the fact that it is impossible to
class spiders as insects.

Elizabeth Of England purchased the

FINANCIAL and COMMERCIAL.
IN HANDS OF PROFESSIONALS.
Substantial Net Gains Replaced Severe
Declines Of the Opening.

| New York Feb. 14.-The principal
| fact impaired by the action of the
| stock market today was its lapse. in
/ large part, into the hands of the pro-
/ fessional element, The element had
| been impressed on Friday with asser-
/ lions put in circulation regarding the
| contents of President Taft's speech.
| then in prospect for Saturday night
| These assertions lent a color of lenien-
| cy to the supposed views of the pres
| ident on the corporation problem which
| aroused the fear amongst bearish spec
| ulators that that subject was to be
| converted into a factor for booming
stocks, rather than a cause for anxi-
| ETY. to cooperation interests. The perusa1
of the speech disclosed no sign of the
retractionS which had been broadly
insinuated in some of Fridays reports,
and the professional operators in stocks
promptly retraced the steps they had
taken on Friday before the two day
holiday interval in the market. This
was the cause OF the marking back of
prices from one to over two points in
the opening transactions in stocks. At
pressure to sell stocks, and, on the con-
trary, the kind Of demand developed
which halted the decline early last
week. The sustaining effect on prices
and the scanty offerings of stocks caus-
ed fresh intimidation to the bear par
ty, and they bought to cover with in
creasfng urgency. The end OF the day
saw the severe declines of the opening
TepiaccQ py SuDSCanLldi net gains. with
prices rising. The shrdnxage in the
volume of the days transactions dem
onstrates the small selling pressure at
any of the days price levels. The bulk
of the days business was done in the
first and last hours.
Foreign markets had held Fridays
price level for American stocks better
than was done when the New York
stock market opened. The conse-
quence was a. substantial volume OF
buying orders for execution or arbitrage
here This helped the recovery which
set in promptly after the opening
break Foreign banking houses bear
testimony to an appreciab1e growth of
foreign demand for corporation bonds,
stock market. This is regarded as a
most encoura ging feature of the finan-
cia,l situation, especially in view of the
continued dislocation of the internal
tional trade situation. imports Of mer-
chandise continue very heavy, in spite
by the high prices of cotton and
wheat.
The decreased activity of the market
is ascribed to the purpose to await
more explicit information on sundry
subjects. The recess of the supreme
conjecture on a possible decision in
the American Tobacco case is expect
ed to reassert an influence. The large
deliveries of copper into consumption
during January are regarded as being
prompted by the belief in an agree
ment amongst producers to restrict
output. and there is apprehension that
this laying in of stocks will curtaH the
later demand for that metal.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales,
par value, $2,760,0o0. United States
bonds were unchanged on call.
