y fond mother awaited the home
coming of her hayward son and a wife
of less than two months shares her Joy.
She has never seen her husband out
of custody.
Elliott had been in jail five months,
accused of stealing a diamond ring
which he took from a travelling sales
man and hid in his shoe. He con-
fessed and the diamond was returned
to the owner.
Two months ago Mr.. Elliot was taken
from the county Jail under guard and
at the probate court was married, Miss
Ella NJ. Stringer. aged 80, being the
bride. Immediately after the wedding,
Elliott was taken back to jail, where
he had been until Wilson gave freedom
to the boy.
For the past two years Mr.. Elliott

Court officials think that he has been
in jail more days the past four years

New YORK stock Marker.

Wall ST., New York, Dec. 26.-STOCKS-
Holiday conditions still governed the
stock market and speculation was at a
minimum. Speculation abroad was Sus-
pended and traders here took little interest
in the dealings aside from pool operations
IN specialties. The stiffness OF call money
which opened at 8 per cent discouraged
speculation. Standard stocks barely
moved and many ordinarily active issues
were not traded in during the morning.

cloth rawlings were scattered about
the cage, and in a very few minutes
that cage contained about the most in
dustrious weaVers in the whole United
States. The keepers watched them
with interest and noted with satisfac-
ton that the cloth they were weaving
was increasing in size. More than
! that, the birds kept it of uniform
width.
It was the female, Atkins noticed,
that did most of the work; the male
got to 'loafing on the job" and find
ing means for killing time, while his
mate worked on industriously. After
the first outburst of activity following
the coming of the material the male
did none of the actual weaving. He
limited himself to hopping about the
cage and gathering material for his
industrious mate.
Atkins has had much experience
with birds. but he said that in all his
experience he never saw weaver birds
carry on the way that pair did.
When both worked, he began to spec
ulate on training weaver birds to
make cloth. He said to Hoffman, in
burst of enthusiasm, that IL the
birds could be trained, the clothmak-
ing industry would boom and the
feathered weavers be help in reduc-
ing the cost of living.
Think what it would mean to be
able to put ffrst-class weaver-bird
cloth on the market" he confided to
teach them to crochet"
The weaver birds, Keeper Atkins
explained. weave nests best likened to
stocking hung up by the toe, with
the heel enlarged to receive the eggs.
while access and exit are obtained
through the leg.
The weaving continued for three
days, and then came day of season
able cold weather, and with it went
glimmering Atkins hopes of the COM
mercial possibilities of the weaver
birds. Both birds stopped work. No
amount of handy material would in
duce them to resume weaving.
The result of their labor was
piece of woven fabric about 10 inches
long and inches wide. The grasses,
threads, and odds and ends are neatly,
even artistically, woven together into
a cloth that looks not unlike bit of
homespun goods.-New York Times.

How the Term ''Firewater'' Came.

When the HudSOn'S Bay Trading
company began it's trading among the
Indians, it was found that by selling
the Indians liquor they could more
easily be induced to trade their pei
tries.
The first whisky or intoxicant of in
ferior quality was distilled in England
and brought to America in large bar
rels, but in transporting it overland it
was found more convenient to divide
it into small kegs. The traders soon
became aware of the fact that by di-
luting the whisky with water more
furs could be obtained. This was prac-
ticed for some time, but the Indians
learned that good whisky poured on a
fire would cause it to flame up, but
had the whisky been diluted, the fire
would be quenched.
1t was by this simple experiment that
the term fire water became a COM
mon word among Indians. A chief VINO
had experienced the bad effects of
whisky among his people said it was
certainly distilled from. the heart of
wildcats and the tongues of women
from the effects it produced.-Bonfort's
Spirit and Wine Circular.

HE HAD NO MONEY.
So Two Mexican Holdups SIashed
James Sculley.

Because he had no money with
which to satisfy two Mexicans who
held him up, James Sculley, 222 Madi-
son street, was severely slashed about
the face last night by the Mexicans.
He was subsequently taken to Stor-
mont hospital where eleven stitches
were required to close his wounds.
The hoIdup occurred at the corner
of Second and Quincy streets. Sculley
was on his way to supper, about
o'clock, when he was halted by the
Mexicans and his money demanded.
Sculley told them he had none. The
Mexicans persisted, however, and
searched him, finding nothing, they
then slashed him in the face with
knives they were carrying, and beat
a hasty retreat down an alley. The
wounded man was taken in charge
by Dr. c. M Hensley, county physi-
clan. He is reported resting easily this
morning, and probably will recover
without serious complications.

would not be excessive, Mr.. Seward
gave directions to have the instruc-
ton put in cipher and sent by cable,
which was done. The instruction
would occupy in print about a page

and it mounted to over $23, 1000, which
Mr.. Seward, not considering it reas-
