Curing L-eprosy.

Some weeks ago the Courant men, toned that Cuban had asserted that he had discovered cure for leprosy and had sc far impressed the Havana authorities that commission of phy- sicians had been appointed to inyesti- gate the matter. IL now appears leper no further away than Pennsyl- vania is go much improved in health that he has been released from Quaran- tine. IL Is asserted that while bacilli are found in nodules on his face, his blood shows no trace of them or of the disease, and the authorities of Wilkesbarre, which have been keeping him and his family in quarantine at an expense of $3,000 year, have put an end to the outlay by removing the quarantine. It may be supposed that the man, Joseph Norman, will not be altogether popular at social gatherings for some time to come, but it is signifi- cant that his condition has so far i'm proved that he is permitted to be at large.-Hartford Courant.

Her Name Linked With Andres.

Miss Honoria Sneyd was an English lady who at one time was engaged to be married to Maj. John Andre, the young British officer who was impli- cated in the Benedict Arnold treason plot but who tilted him and became the second wife of Richard Edgeworth, fa- ther of Marian Edgeworth, the novel, ist. Before leaving England for Amer lea, and while still engaged to Miss Sneyd, Andre painted miniature DOT trait of her which he carried with him and had on his person when captured. After his Imprisonment he wrote to a friend: T have been taken prisoner by the Americans and stripped of everything except the picture of Homo ria, which I concealed in my mouth ; preserving that yet think myself for tunate." Andre was executed October ?, 17S0, but his engagement to Miss Sneyd had been broken some time be- fore. Marian Edgeworth was the daugh- ter of Richard Edgeworth by first marriage, and after the desta of his first wife, he married HoIoria Sneyd.

 The people of Monroe county are NOW paying each year, a double county taxation, quite severely for having allowed petty politics, demagogery prejudice and careless lndlfter- ence to sway the selection of county officials.
 The candidate who trys to slip into office by an insidious play on prejudice, is a dangerous man Every citizen should dig into" the candidate and find the REAL MAN and if he is short on merit. then in a nice kind way tell him so. If you can't do this, then dc not encourage him.

IF there ever was a time when the farmers were in the saddle" NOW is the time. Not only in the saddle but it looks like they were to stay for some time to come.

CHICAGO GRAIN TAKES
AN UPWARD SLANT
Railroads Were Handicapped
by Cold Wave and Re-
ceipts Dwarfed.

CHICAGO, Dec. 29.-With railroads
Handicapped by the cold wave and
with receipts consequently dwarfed.
the grain market today had an up
ward slant thruout the session. Corn
closed steady at the same as yes
terday's finish to 3-Sc higher.
Oats gained IA to 5-Sc net. Provi-
sions advanced cents to i5c.
Unfavorable conditions for the
movement of the crop made the hard
ening of the corn market n foregone
conclusion. Bullish sentiment, tho,
was held in check by prospects of
government measures for relief.
Oats altho only fairly active, went
to the highest price record yet this
season. The impetus came largely
from reports of sales to the seaboard.
December delivery made the sharpest
upturn, and as precaution against a
possible year-end squeeze on Monday,
the exchange directors this afternoon
gave notice that no December deal
ings would be allowed at any figure
exceeding cents above the current
price of the May option.
Buying for stockyard interests lifted
provisions after some weakness at the
start.

NEW YORK, Dec. 29-The move

but active session was rather mixed
despite surface indications Of general
strength.
Low-priced rails were In further de-
mand, especially the group Of west

Trading in motors was on an extern
sive scale, with extreme gains OF /

Motors, WHY'S Overland and few ac-
cessories.
Equipments and the war division
as whole tended towards higher
levels, while United States steel fluc-
tuated fractionally over and under
yesterdays final quotations, closing
virtually unchanged.
Gains in specialties were reduced
however, heavy selling ensuing on ru-
mors of a British marine disaster,
Sales amounted to 4S5,000 shares
Trade authorities referred TO the OBJ
scure outlook in general lines of trade
with increasing conservatism on the
part of big business interests. Bonds
were strong and unusually active on

NEW ORLEANS COTTON
OPENS AT AN ADVANCE
Improvement was Maintained
Thruout Days Session.,
Sub Reports Steadying.

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. "a firm
undertone was apparent in cotton here
today, the market responding to con-
tinued reports of a good spot demand
at higher prices. Shorts were inclined
to cover and a moderate inquiry for
long account sprang up. The opening
was at the advance and the improve
ment was maintained thru the dav.
prices at their highest being 20 TO II
points up. The close was IA to II
points up. Highest levels were reached
after the posting Of spot quotations.
which advanced prices 13 points to
30.13c for middling, a new high rec
ord. Another feature which worked for
steadness was the fairly large export
movement for the day, which brought
foreign clearances thus far this sea-
son up to about 100000 bales. Re-
ports of the recent destruction or
capture of numerous German subna-
rines were a steadying influence. as
were also complaints of drouth In
