Market Dali and Firm at Slightly Advanced Prices
STOCK PRICES ADVANCE IN EARLY
TRADING AND MARKET
TURNS VERY DULL.

Industrials are more active than the
rails, though price changes are In mar
row range. General Electric Is for the
moment in new high territory due to
the expectation of valuable rights in
connection with a new stock issue or
of an extra dividend. The stock opened
at 179Ss. an advance over night of three
fourths of a point, and during the morn
ing the stock sold up to 1915. Steel also
was active and gained about point In
the early trading. At one time 1t sold
at 72%.
Lehigh Valley gained about three
quarters of point, Reading point and
Union Pacific nearly q point during the
forenoon. But these former leaders OF
the market were less active than Gen
eral Electric, American Locomotive, In
terborough and other specialties. The
fact is that the recent showing In rail
road earnings does not make the rail-
road stocks as desirable as they once
were, and there Is less incentive toward
their activity.
The market in the afternoon was dull
and fairly strong with the better prices
holding well.

TRIMBELLE-Trimbelle took its

that name, which rises in the town
of River Falls and makes its way TO
the Mississippi, reaching it in the
town Of Diamond Bluff. The
stream was named by government
surveyors, who wrote the name in
two words, Trim Belle" At the
same time they named the stream
next east lisa Belle" and the one
next west Little Belle" now Big
River. < The first settle
ment made in the town was by
BARLEY Garner, in June, 1850. Mr..
Garner came from Illinois, and To-
Gated upon what has since acquired
the name of Negro Hill" About
two years afterward Hiram Nc AL
lister came in and settled on the
place now owned by John Rich,
keeping an accommodation house
for travellers on the "Seeley Road, !"
between Saltwater and Rush River,

High School Notes

The high school basket ball team
went to Ellsworth last Thursday,
and returned Friday Slightly dis
figured bat still in the ring" The
boys were not doped before the
game, but a combination of lack of
experience, strange, CLASSY floor,
and insufficient team work did the
expected and Ellsworth won by a
comfortable margin. The best part
of it is that Ellsworth will be here
for return game March l.
The schedule of the high school
basket ball team has been slightly

Saturday, Feb. "a, Prescott comes
here for an evening game. On
March / Ellsworth will be at sThel-
ander's in the evening, and on
March 8 in the evening Galahad
will come down for the return game.
That gives the boys three games in
succession on the home floor, aud
they are preparing to sell tickets
for the whole course.
