STOCK MARKET REVIEW
Prices Break Sharply and De-
CIineS Ranqe Up to Five Points.

Diagnosing the stock market intelli-
gently is very difficult and that is why
so many people buy at the top and sell
10 per cent of those who follow the
| speculative variations in an endeavor
to make profits by guessing the rise and
the fall of prices are partially if not
| wholly unsuccessful TO the master
mind of the experienced operator the
symptoms of the stock market tell its
ailments as accurately as the symp-
! toms of an illness indicate the nature Of
physician. There are only a few great
physicians, as there are only few
great stock market operators. iester-
/ day was a day of extreme bearishncss.
which started in the early part of the
session and continued until the after
noon, resulting in stocks OF all kinds,
| irrespective of price or yield, being
| dumped on the market al sacrifices.
! Numerous issues were reduced to a u
per cent basis of yield by the whole
sale selling. and every available rumor
| intended TO depress traders was kept in
active circulation. There was little In
the news Of the day TO offer encourage
ment. and specifically the outlook was
discouraging. The bill at Albany which
was reported to be about ready for in
cooperating the Stock Exchange "a
| IF a.
the firmness of the money market and
the serious revolutionary situation in
Mexico all combined TO feed bcarish
sentiment and accentuate depression.
In addition TO these enumerated rae
tors were threatened strike of firemen
of the railroads, a continued gloomy
view of the war in the Near East in
Europe and the money strain abroad,
which was reflected in the weekly
statement of the Bank of England.
All these influences were Of character
to discourage commitments on the long
side. and il required the real market
diagnostician yesterday TO determine
whether the decline had gone far
enough to warrant the beginning OF a
bull position. From the point Of view
of WELD that the market presented
there seemed TO be many bargains
among the standard issues. Unless
| this country is doomed TO a period or
great distress, the stock market is in a
sold out condition. one of the less i'm
portant occurrences which should be
credited TO favorable events Of the day
was the declaration of a ID per cent
payment on the back preferred divi-
dends Of the Colorado Fuel and Iron
| Company This distribution absorbed
practically one-half the accumulated
back dividends and would have been
rather stimulating had the market not
been so depressed. What might be ac-
cepted as satisfactory evidence Of
the standing of our securities in Eu-
rope was the announcement that 40 per
cent Of the Southern Pacific under
writing had been taken by foreign
bankers. Europe was also purchaser
of stocks in this market yesterday
amounting to 5000 shares. The
money market continued to be firm for
/ call loans. and time money was con-
siderably stronger. Developments OF
the next few days will be awaited with
keen interest by anxious stock market
observers.

Usefulness of Glass.

Casually we regard glass as a per.
ishable substance. The fragility of It.,
however, Is overrated Some of the
uses to which glass has been put
speak of It's strength rather than of
weakness.
1t Is some years since we'll known
society woman astonished the world
by wearing glass dress. Now dress.
es made of glass are no novelty. Glass
carpets, rooms and buildings are or
binary.
Pavements made of glass are to be
found in Lyons, France. The French
are enthusiastic over them. They
claim for the glass pavements ad-
vantages over those made of asphalt.
stone or wood.
In Germany water pipes are made OF
glass. This is quite an old custom.
A more recent use of glass by the
Germans Is the making Of telegraph
poles. 1t has been an immense sue
cess.

HOME CIRCLE COLUMN
FALSE SYMPATHY.

Human nature is proven bially incon-
sistent. 1t applauds the virtuous, but
when question Of material help arises
it would seemingly rather aid the vici-
Gus. Hundreds are suffering around US
daily whose only crime is that they are
poor, and yet there is little sympathy
for them, even from their relatives and
former friends, and no helping hand is
stretched forth to aid them; but If those
same people would commit some helm
Gus otfense and fall into the clutches of
the law, there would be no lack of
sympathy or substantial aid.
Let man, for instance, become
murderer, and no matter how much Of
an outcast he may have been before he
became weighted with the curse of
Cain, he straightway becomes an OBJ
ject of interest. Sympathizers appar-
emily spring up at every corner, and
money is poured forth to prove his in
nocence or to mitigate the Justice of
his sentence. He becomes a hero in
the eyes of those who neglected him
before, and the taking OF fellow crea-
lures life, for a very slight provoca-
ton or for no provocation at ALL adj
vances him thousand fold in the es-
timation of the world.
He becomes distinguished man,
and the conservatory ana the preserve
closet are riiied of their contents to
soothe his hours OF imprisonment.
Philanthropic ladies flock around him.
and tender-hearted and soft-headed
men, or others anxious for notoriety,
come forward to cheer him. They
have little or no thought Tor the poor
victim who has suddenly been sent to
his account with "all his iInperfections
on his head" but for the murderer
they have kind words, which makes
him think that he is noble fellow
after all, who had not molted a feather
from his angelic wings, by violating
the laws of God and man. If he has
been sentenced, petitions circulate for
a communication, and if it is not secured
denunciations are poured forth on those
in power who have resisted all APP
peals.
We do not wish to be unmerciful;
we would not add to the misery of
those whose evil passions and vicious
courses in life have led them to do
crime; but for the protection of socie-
ty and the innocent we condemn, the
demoralizing sympathy which is be-
slowed upon the man who sheds hui
man blood. 1t encourages those with
murderous instincts to give way to
their sinful impulses, and leads them
to believe that they will escape severe
punishment for their misdeeds, through
the efforts of perhaps well meaning
but mistaken men. Let the full penal
ty for murder he strictly enforced and
the report of the deadly pistol will be-
come a novelty in the land; that is if
we do not insist upon elevating muir.

Nobody can be called a good house
keeper or good cook, who spoils
things in preparing them for the table
II 1t is only to prepare dish Of sliced
cucumbers it should be done just so. A
haphazard style of cookery that hits
sometimes and misses others, never
wins laurels for the cook. 1t should
be right every time, as we expect the
dressmaker TO make our dresses and
the tailor To make our coats. When
the husband and boys come into dinner,
they should find food they can enjoy, so
that they can feel that the old proverb,
God sends meat, but the devil sends
cooks" does not apply TO their house.
The fare may be simple and plain and
comprise very few dishes, but il it is
well prepared, neither over sailed, nor
over peppered, nor burnt, nor slack
baked, nor stale, nor sour, the family
can enjoy peace that poor cookery
does not dispense.

SLEEP A MEDlCINE f..

The cry for rest has always been
louder than the cry for food. Not that
il is more important, but it is often
harder to obtain. The best rest comes
from sound sleep. OF two men or wo-
men, otherwise equal, the one who
sleeps the best will be the most moral,
healthy and efficient Sleep will do
much to cure irritablity of temper,
peevishness and uneasness. 1t viii
restore TO vigor, an overworked brain.
1t will build up and make strong "a
weary body. 1t will cure headache.
1t will cure broken spirit. 1t will
cure sorrow. Indeed we might make q
long list of nervous and other maladies
that sleep will cure. The cure of
sIeeplessness requires good clean
bed, sufficient exercise to produce
WEAKNESS, pleasant occupation, good
air and not too warm a room, clean
conscience and avoidance of stmulants
and narcotics. For those who are ov-
VI WI h'ti htINOuS, WHO
pass sleepless nights, we commend the
adoption of such habits as will produce
sleep; otherwise, life will be short and
what there is of it sadly imperfect.
There is an old proverb, "home is
home, be it ever SO homely" but home
should not be made any more homely
than necessity requires. The family
tireside should be associated, in the
minds of the young people, not only
with stern requirements of duty, but
with sense of pleasure. 1t is not
enough to drill the boys with severe
discipline, in all the for;nalites Of rig
id virtue. They should be taught not
only how to keep straight, but how to
bend, since it is not in the power of
nature TO undergo perpetual tension
Provisions must be made at home for
relaxation as well as work, for pleas
ure as well as duty. II such provision
is not made there, it will be as it is too
often, sought elsewhere.
