PettIcoat RuffIes.

Think you that the ruffle OF petit
coat is a simple affair unworthy Of
thought. Then you err grievously, as
witness the following.
1t may be tucked horizontally, with
the edge left plain or bordered Will
lace.
It may be tucked vertically-an un
usual and attractive arrangement
with the edge treated as before.
1t may have tire vertical tucks In
terspersed with lace or embroidered
insertions, in block effect.
1t may be a vandyke rutfle, with .
narrow hemstitched edge, and vertical
tucks running UP and down the triaL
gular sections.
1t may be scalloped, with a button
holed edge and fiat coin spot In the
middle OF each scallop. This Is es
pecially good for petticoats OF fame
or other heavy fabrics.
1t may be, finally, only a plain little
hemstitched ruffle, demure but ser
v!ceable, and extremely easy to make
So look well to the peticoat rufflei
1t has its possibilities, and nothing Is
too small to engage the attention o.
the conscientious needlewoman.

HARVEST HAND IS
THROWN FROM CAR
Held Up and Robbed, Then
Showed OF Moving Train
His Experience

Ardoch. N. d.. Oct. 2o.-victor
G~ordhammer, a threshing engineer
whose home is at Argyle. Mimi. was
robbed of 500 and thrown from the
top Of a Great Northern box car. He
had been running a threshing ma
chine for a man near Grafton and
came into Grafton on his way home,
but too late for the passenger train.
About IL o'clock a freight train pull
ed in and he boarded 1t, climbing up
on a box car close to the engine.
When about four miles from Ardoch
two fellows came walking along h
cars, one Of them Carrying a basket
Of grapes. Upon coming up to him
they sat down and commenced eating
the grapes and passed the basket to
him. From the questions they asked
him. he became suspicious. but when
one Of them pulled a gun and ordered
''hands up" there was nothing else to
do and they went through him to the
extent Of his earnings. At this time
the train was close to Ardoch and
the lights Of the brakeman could be
seen coming along the a from the
end Of the train. when the thugs de-
l~iberately pushed him off the moving
train into the ditch. That he es-
capped with his life is a miracle. He
struck on his head and shoulders and
lay stunned for sometime. By the
time that he was able to get into
Ardoch the freight had gone.

The Markets
FLUCTUATIONS
MUCH WIDER
Market Developed a Fairly
Strong Tone and Buying
Was Heavy

New York. Oct. 20.-Fluctuations of
stocks were much wider and more ac-
tive today than during the recent dull
sessions. The market developed a
fairly strong tone and buying at times
was conducted on a heavy scale. The
effect of this influence was offset at
times by extensive selling and at n
period of the trading the market
seemed to be entirely in the hands OF
the bears. United States Steel, Lehigh
Valley and Canadian Pacific made net
gains of two points or more and most
of the other active shares rose by sub
stantial amounts.
United States Steel which was sold
yesterday for h ostensible reason
that the steel corporation was to con-
troll Its lease of the Hill ore properties
was bought today for the same reason
on the theory that cancellation of the
lease would improve the corporations
status under the Sherman law. Unit
ed States Steel rose rapidly at the
opening in common with the remain
der of the list.
The bears apparently extended their
efforts too far for they We're put to
route in the last hour when prices
were sent upward with a rush.
Great Northern ore certificates were
affected keenly by the announcement
of h Steel corporations decision.
The stock broke seven points making
a ten point loss in two days and SELL
ing down to forty, its lowest quotation
since 1907. 1t subsequently recovered
part of this loss.
Movements of the copper group at.
tracted considerable attention on ac-
count Of the advance of the price of
the metal to 12 1-2 cents. American
Smelling which lost ground rapidly
early in the day, recovered its loss and
closed with a gain of nearly a point,
and Amalgamated Copper rose / 3-8.
Representatives Of the copper trade
said that there had recently been a
pronounced improvement in the situa-
ton. Domestic demand has enlarged
and the export trade has assumed con
siderably larger proportions. The de-
cline in stocks of coppers in Europe
was said to have strengthened the for
| eign metal market.
European buying was partly respon-
sible for the early strength of stocks.
London bought more freely in this
market than for several days. its pur-
chases of United States Steel alone be-
ing placed at $1,000 shares. The bank
of England's weekly statement showed
a falling off in bullion Of nearly 49,
000, 900 but a gain in the proportion of
reserves to liabilities. The bank Of
France increased its supply of gold by
less IMAM SoUV,UUU.
Trading in bonds continued on a
fairly actice scale.
There was an under current of
heaviness in early transactions on the
stock exchange owing largely to the
active selling Of American Tobacco
skies which yielded more than a point
to Ill although recovering later. The
tours were we'll supported and other
issues developed strength before the
close. Total sales, par value, 1885,
900.
United States bonds were unchanged
on call.

Minot Bankers Will Ship Five Car
loads of Cattle.
Minot, n. D., Oct. 20.-The Minot
bankers have decided to ship into
Minot five carloads Of mich cows for
distribution among the farmers Of the
Minot territory. This Is merely a
starter on the campaign to build up
the dairy industry in the Minot dis
trict.
The banks are receiving many in
quiries from the farmers. The farm
ers are beginning to realize that
milch cows will bring a steady in
come the year round and will keep
the soil in the best Of condition for
raising grain.
The bankers have been in commun-
ication with owners of milch cows in
Iowa and other eastern states and
find that COWS there bring from $35
to $50. To this would be added the
freight.
