NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features of the Days Dealings in All
the Leading Stocks.

New York, April The stock market
gave another demonstration of strength
III the fcrcpaTt Of today'S trading, pre-
sumably in response to LondonS better
prices and the publication of a number
of favorable railway returns. Quotations
advanced in almost a score of issues,
with resultant new records for the
movement in Reading Union racific.
Amalgamated Copper and some other
copper securities. Before the end of the
morning session, however, the rise ceas-
ed abruptly, dealings fell to minor pro-
portions and virtually all gains We're lost.
For the balance of the day the list con-
tinued under pressure, this being most
noticeable in United States Steel, Union
Pacific and the coal shares. Lowest
the hevainess of the market suggesting
renewal of operations by the snort in
terests.
Such justification as the bera party
may have needed for its attitude was
based to a degree ON technical condi-
tions, although the reactionary tendency
in Steel and some other industrials prob
ably had its origin in trade conditions
There is feeling among conservative
brokers and dispassionate observers that
the market has become two sided not
only because of the phenomenal rise in
the past month. but chiefly because the
higher level in the industrial group has
perhaps over-discounted conditions for a
long period. AS for the steel industry
the most reliable indications point to "A
Shrinkage rather than an increase of
output for the current month at least
AdNlceS from the Middle west ana the
Southwest told of serious Interruption
TO railway traffic because of the floods
along the Mississippi and Ohio rivers.
Aside from further weakness in Illinois
Central. which may have been due more
TO its poor February statement than to
any other reason, the shares of the
railway traversing the ieted regions
We're scarcely affected. The one con-
spicuous feature of todays market was
the strength OF Norfolk & Western
which was helpful to other bituminous
coal shares.
American stocks failed TO hold more
than a part of their initial rise in Lon
don, but that market bought on balance
here, chiefly Steel to the extent of per-
haps 10000 shares. Here, call money
again touched 3 per cent. although the
bulk of the moderate offerings We're I'M
der that figure. There was a fractional
advance in the 60-day rates. with prac-
tically no change for longer periods.
Outflow and intake of money thus far
this week are almost evenly balanced,
despite which fact it is believed that
last Saturdays impairment of reserve
will be corrected in a measure.
The bond market was irregular, except
for Norfolk q Western Convertibles.

sales, par value, aggregated 81, 106, 900.

THRIFT OF OZARK COUPLE
Took Matter Of Presents Into Their
Own Hands on silver Weddins
Anniversary.

Everyone who has got several gifts
exactly alike will appreciate the
shrewdness of this Ozark couple who,
in the matter of presents, took things
into their own hands.
"Speakin' Of being thirsty" said HI
Buck, reckon Cy WATSON and his
wife, that came here from Iowa, about
take the prize"
Flows that?" asked the stranger
who was waiting in front of the black.
smith shop while his horse was being
shod.
We'll, you see Cy and Mirandy
wanted to celebrate their silver wed,
ding. They had never celebrated any
anniversary before because, as Miriam
dy told my wife, the silver wedding
was the first one where the presents
would be worth more than the
victuals.
Even then they worried a good deal
for fear everybody would bring pickle
forks or butter knives. But after a
while they hit on an idea that worked
first rate.
They wrote at the bottom of the
invitations, asking the folks not to buy
presents until they got there, for the
jeweler from Buckeye Bridge would
be in the yard with full line of sill
verware, and no two pieces alike"
THAT was clever" said the stran-
ger. picked out their own presents,
you might say"
YES" said Hi, "but that wasn't the
best part of it. We learned afterward
they dickered with the jeweler and got
him to give them 20 per cent. on all
he sold."-Youth's Companion.

MUCH ADO ABOUT A PENNY
Sample Of Extent to Which Red Tape
Methods Prevail In Ger
many.

Germany, declares Mr.. s. Barring
Gould in his book, "The Land Of
Teck," is absolutely swathed in red
tape. In illustration, he tells an ex-
perience of his own while journeying
by rail from Ober-Lenningen to Owen.
I asked at Ober-Lenningen for a
third-class ticket to Owen, and sup
posing that had got what I asked
for, stepped into third-class carriage.
On these branch lines nearly everyone
travels fourth. Before reaching the
next station-only a mile from ODER
Lenningen, in fact-the inspector ap-
peared. Hail" he laid. you have
a fourth-class ticket, and are in a
third-class compartment. The fine is
six marks"
l explained, and offered at once to
pass into a fourth-class carriage or
pay the difference in the price Of
tickets.
THAT will not do. You have in
fringed the law, and must pay six
marks" the man insisted.
ct get out at Owen, and will explain
matters to the station MASTER" l said.
l did so.
"The fine Is six marks" said the
official, peremptorily.
But, said |, Il demanded a third
class ticket, and was given one for
which I had not asked. This was an
oversight on the part of the clerk"
"You should have examined your
ticket" the station master insisted.
The train was delayed five minutes
while we threshed out the question on
the platform in great detail, and the
other passengers craned their necks
out Of the windows of the carriages
and listened with lively interest. At
last, reluctantly, the station master
yielded; but I must pay the difference.
What is it?" l asked.
"One penny"

AMERICAN DRY FLY FISHING
The Angler Fishes the Water and Not
the Rise as They Do in
England.

American dry fly fishing may be de-
fined briefly as the art of displaying
to the trout a single artificial fly
floating upon the surface of the stream
in the exact manner of the natural
insect.
Upon occasions, somewhat rare in
deed, but nevertheless of sufficient fire.
quency to render the fact noteworthy,
the American dry fly man casts con-
sciously to a rising and feeding trout
the invariable custom of the English
dry fly ''purist."
On the trout streams of this coun-
try. however, the orthodox manner of
fishing and floating fly is to fish all the
water as when wet fly casting.
In America, owing to the fact that
the dry fly angler fishes the water
and not the rise. wet and dry fly fish,
ing are far more closely related than
is the case in England, where the or
thodox sportsman stalks the trout
casting exclusively to a rising and
feeding distributing.
