AN ARCTIC METAMoRPHoIs.

The history of the spread of the muck rat has been somewhat similar to that of the moose in this district. although it seems to have preceded the moose by few decades in some places and by a decade or so in others. They are now found in many of the small lakes right down to the coast of Coronation gulf and Dolphia and Un- ion straits, but there are hundreds of Eskimo now living who can remember the time when they first saw these animals. Being strange through new ness they were cOnsedered supernatu- ra land are so even to-day
 Although some tribes are hard put to it to find skins enough for clothing, and although they will use the inferior skin of the marmOt, they throw away both the skin and meat of the musk rat and use only the tails, which are employed as charms and taiIsmans. The beaver, too, is spreading toward the sea. although he has not as yet at tained so high a northing as the musk rat, and will probably always be con- fined to the timber country"

Stocks Recover from Downward Move
 ment by Short Covering.

ment by Short Covering.
 New York, Sept. 2S.-FTrst prices of stocks yesterday were generally lower, Speculation was languid and the down ward movement, which was only of slight extent was apparently due more to interference of traders than to eff forts to depress the list. Steel and the Capper shares were heavy. and Reading, which opened unchanged, sold off on the first few transactions. The only movement Of importance was in Union Pacific in which speculative interest again Centered.
 The market closed irregular. Stocks held their ground fairly well although the main movement was downward at the opening. The initial dip in prices gave shorts an opportunity to even up on their contracts over the weekend and covering was the main factor in the recovery. which proceeded until the market was back on a parity with yesterday's close. The baCkwardness of Steel apparently was more infiuen- tial than the buoyancy Of Union Pa ciic and Reading, and the rise was hesitatfng and slow. Just before the close the list shaded off again Peo- pIe's Gas developed renewed strength and activity and gained two points. Bonds were steady.
