TOWN TOPICS

A very interesting miniature
merry gO-round was seen Thursday
on the park in front of the railroad
station. A man, accompanied by two
small children, walked down the
street with some very mysterious APP
paratus under their arms. They pro-
.ceeded to the park, where the
strange conglom Grafton of sticks and
wheels was laid on the ground. After
a minutes work the mystery was
solved for there stood q very hand
some miniature merry go-round, upon
which the two children leaped and
made every effort to break the speed
laws The machine consisted of a set
of supporters, upon which was placed
frame which held two seats extend
ed out to either side. Before each of
the seats was a bar, and by working
them back and forth the frame was
caused to rcvolve. The exercise should
surely be q fine one for children, as
we'll as a lot of amusement.
Most of the local insurance men and
few other favored toWnsmen enjoy
ed a very sweet time at a sugar party
on Maplewood farm Thursday after
noon through courtesy of the proprie
tors, George Morrill,.

NEW YORK, August 24.-Further upward readjustment of prices was registered by today's stock market, traders regarding the government $ hard coal schedule as altogether equitable. Sharp rallies in oils and shares of other commodities seemed to result from the belief that addi- tional price-fxing would be on the same basis. Pronounced betterment in Russian affairs tended further to allay the pessimism of recent days.
 All classes of rails participated in the advance, the movement embracing numerous low grade issues, notably Rock Island, Missouri Pacific, Wheel ing and Lake Erie, Wabash and Kansas City Southern at extreme gains of one to four points.
 Bethlehem was the only prominent industrial to lag. United States Steel advanced 17s to 2% and Cruicible and Lackawanna steels averaged two point gains, with 2A for Great Northern Ore and 11k for Republic Iron. Texas Company regained almost half its 121a point loss of the previous day and Mexican Petroleum made a gross gain of 32s. Other semi-war shares, in c1uding coppers, sugars and tobaccos ranged from 1 to 21s points higher, shippings and motors faring similarly
 Final prices were irregularly under the best, the market reacting on prof it-taking. Much of the days trading, aggregating 100000 shares, consisted of short covering
 Bonds were easier with sustained frmness in the Libert issues at 99.s2 to 999S. Total sales, par value, 3D. 975,000.
 United States bonds old issues, were unchanged on call.

STABBED IN THE BACK
How Many Bisbee Readers Have Had
 Those Sudden Twinges?

Have you ever had "crick" in the back?
 Does your back ache with a dull, heavy, draggy throb?
 Is it hard to straighten up after stopping?
 Hard to arise from a chair or turn in bed?
 Is the urine dark colored? Passages irregular?
 When your kidneys need attention. use a tested kidney remedy.
 Use Doan's Kidney Pills-the rem edy that has proved its merit.
 Convincing testimony in this Bisbee citizens statement:
 Amos Shreve, of 19 Tank Hill, says: My kidneys weren't acting regularly and that annoyed me very much. There was a dull ache in my back over n,, kidneys and it seemed as though it would never let up. My back was as sore as a boil. When I bent over or tried to lift anything, sharp pains would catch me. Doan's Kidney Pills soon relieved the pains in my back and after I had used them a while I was cured of all the trouble"
 Price soc, at all dealers. Don't sim ply ask for a kidney remedy-get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that cured MT. Shreve. Foster-Milburn Co.,, Props, Buffalo, N Y.

GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO, August 24.-The course of corn prices was cratic today, an early advance on local demand fail ing to hold up because of bearish crop reports mainly to be followed by a sharper decline which was accentu- ated by short covering and took prices to higher levels. The close was strong and well toward the top for the day. Final figures were 5s to IF cents net higher with December at 1101k to 1105s and may at 1G77s to 10S. Wheat finished at the top. 5 cents higher with September the only trading option at PIP. Oats were easier and finished shade to F cents lower Provisions, after early weak. ness rallied and closed not far from yesterdays levels.
 September wheat, the only remain ing option to engage trading, ranged higher on evening-up transactions. closing at the top price, five cents above yesterdays final figures. To- morrow trading in wheat comes to an end and official action by the board of trade is expected fixing the price at which September contracts shall be settled
 Oats reflected the action of corn. Country offerings were light.
 Provisions showed action in sym pathy with the hog market. which de clined about s1. but buying credited to packers took prices away from the low levels to about yesterdays fin ishing figures. Lard was an active product through much of the session.

NEW YORK, August 24.-Expres- sions relative to the Russian situa- tions eminating from official Washing ton were of a more favorable tone and combined with the report that the American government had advanced another loan of one hundred million dollars to that country stimulated a better demand for stocks although the bulk of the demand was repre- sentative of realizing by shorts there was no evidence of impressive buying power and public participation on the buying side continues at an irreduce- able minimum. It is the impression in conservative quarters that the many factors in the general situation awaiting solution are sufficient in meaning to restrict bullish tactics at least until events are disclosed that will lend more encouragement to the pursuance of a constructive course.
