Say The Kind Word Now

Oh, my dear friends, YOU who
are letting misund rstandings run
on from year to year, meaning 10
clear them up some day; you who
are keeping wretched quarrels alive
because YOU cannot quite make up
your mind that now is the day to
sacrifice your pride and kill them;
you who are passing men sullenly
upon the street. not speaking to
them out of some silly spite and vet
knowing that it would fill you with
shame and remorse + you heard
that one of these men was dead to
morrow morning; you who are
letting your neighbor starve, until
you hear that he is dying of starva-
ton, or letting your friends heart
ache for a word or expression of
sympathy, which you mean to give
him some day-if you only could
know AID STE and feel, all of a sud
den, that the time is short, how it
would break the spell! How you
would go instantly and do the thing
which you might never have another
chance to do.-Ex.

he frequently rides the animal and
finds him as easy-going as q pacing
horse.
The bull is exceedingly docile and
seems to take great pleasure in speed
ing and it requires no effort to keep
him up to the top notch whether
ridden or driven.

|U.P. MELON CAUSES
ACTIVITY IN MARKET
Expectations of Dividend Lead
to Sales, and Send U. P.
Stock Soaring.

NEW YORK, Sept. 10.-The genera
expectation that the Union Pacific
would scut a melon by distributing a
cash dividend out of the proceeds OF
the sale of the Southern Pacific stock to
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company
was the most active factor in causing
sales on the stock exchange today. The
price of Union Pacific scared as the
traders talked over the utterances OF
President Lovett, and determined that
he could mean nothing but a cash divi-
dend by what he said.
Closing yesterday after low of 149S
at 1908. the stock opened this morning
at 1914, and sold up to 1545s under the
heavy buying. Later 1t declined to
three -eighths, but kept its strong posi-
ton.
Another active stock was Steel. on the
report Of a tonnage decrease amounting
to 175.s4s tons. Opening at 63s, 1t sold
up to S4hs. and then down to S3Ss.
Some disappointment was felt at the
lack of a quorum of 1nterboro Rapid
Transit directors, and the resulting post
poning of action on the dividend of that
company. 1t was announced, however.
that the Interboro was in the market
for twenty to thirty thousand tons Of
seel rails.
California Petroleum. which was so
strong yesterday on the reports that Of
ficials Of the Royal Dutch Petrol Com
pany We're inspecting the property. de-
clined from 261a, at which II opened, to
25A, still restraining. however. most Of
Its recent strong rise.
A strong bull feature Of the market
was the announcement of Norfolk and
Western, that 1t had earned 104 on its
common, as compared with 9.S last
year.

STRONG BIDS FAIL
TO GET GAS STOCK
Price Advances to Eighty-Five,
But Offer at Eighty-Six Is
Refused.

Strong bidding failed to bring forth
any offers of Washington Gaslight
Company stock on the local exchange
this afternoon. Marked up On the reg
ular call at S4la, and none offered at any
price, an effort was made to purchase
some of the stock after the call had
been concluded, the price being ad-
ranced first to three-quarters and then
to S., without bringing out any shares.
Some of the stock was finally offered
at Sc, but the bidder did not care to
20 this high for it.
Citizens Savings Bank sold down
from the last quotation. twelve shares
of II being sold for 20ia. The STOCK
was offered at %.
A $500 bond of Capital Traction Us
was sold at los and Immediately after
ward a 800 bond at l071k. One bond
of Washington Railway and Electric
was sold at S1s, while 10 shares 'of
for Ss1s. Union Trust sold at 155. two
lots of ten shares each changing hands
at this figure. Two shares Of Mergen-
thaler Linotype sold at 2lS.
1t was announced today in local fl
nancial circles that the Eastern Light
and Fuel Company. the stock of whicn is
traded in on the local exchange, had
declared a quarterly dividend of 2
per cent. The stock was offered to-
day at los, with no bid price.
Some of the brokers were a little
disappointed this afternoon at the
promptness with which Acting Chair
man Charles ]. Bell brought the ses-
sion to a close. Two different pairs OF
dealers Were trying to agree upon prices
for the securities which one of each
pair wanted. and the other wanted to
sell, when the gavel raped sharply,
and the days session was at an end.
II was explained afterward that il
was desired to have the regular ses-
sion over as soon as possible, SO that
outsiders could be excluded and an exc
cutive session held. This is the second
day in succession on which the stock
exchange has held an executive session,
and number Of those not members of
the organization are wondering what is
up.
