Special Dispatch to The Star,


NEW YORK, January 23.-Invest-

confined mostly to the latter cIassi-
fication.
Both rails and industrials were
prominent In the advance, which
more or less corresponded to the
movement in stocks. New York Cen
trail 6s were in heavy demand above
l16. where they were selling entirely
on their conversion privilege. Chesa-
peake and Ohio controvertible 5s
were also well taken today
SeabOard I<sveS Strong
In the more speculative issues the
Seaboard bonds were again the lead
erS and the 6s crossed 81. One report
had it that the road was to do new
financing by offering additional bonds
under this mortgage. The Seaboard
adjustments were quite as strong as
the 6s, running up a point easily.
Chicago and Eastern Illinois SIS.
which had such a spectacular up
turn late Thursday, added to their
gains today. At II they were 2ls
points above the low of the day be-
fore. NJ. X. and T. adjustments made
another high record above 81 The
buying in this bond has been very
persistent, although the advance has
been very gradual.
OIL Securities Favored. o
OIL securities shared the favor
shown oil stocks. Empire Gas and
Fuel 712s crossed par for first time
Sinclair IS were higher. More inter-
estlng was the swift advance in Vir-
ginia Carolina Chemical Is, amount
ing at one time to 3l2 points. Amer
lean Agricultural 712s sold at par
again, and the Wilson & Co. junior
issues were up about points. Sugar

fractionally up.
Except for the French issues, for

NEW YORK, January 23-The cot

of points and showed net losses
of to points after the call under
selling promoted by the report OF
the Census Bureau showing 13,5oS,037
bales ginned to January l6.
The decline was checked by active
buying on the basis of $3.50 for
March and $3.50 for May, part of
which appeared to be for the trade,
and the market rallied rather sharply
before the end of the first hour.
March sold up to 1880 and May TO

union, for the beginning of their la
bors. They used my yard as a rem
devious, and ! could easily watch their
movements. There was no suggestion
OF labor before the whistle blew. They
made no preparations to begin. They
lay down beside their work as CON
tentedly as dog curls up behind the
kitchen stove to go to sleep after a
hearty meal. I suppose, in fact, that
1t would have been a heinous breach
of regulation if they had done other
wise. They stretched comfortably in
the grass smoking and talking ami
matedly.
When the signal for the fatal hour Of
work sounded they arose slowly, DELHI
erately, reluctantly and dragged them
selves to their tasks, as If they were
getting ready for their own hanging.
There was no enthusiasm, nc evidence
of joy in the toll they were taking up,
no suggestion of eagerness or liking
for their work. If the "boss' came
along to give directions to one of them
the others seized upon this as an OPP
portunity for a little breathing SPELL

to hear the gossip or the call down
Often during the morning l would look
out to see them leaning heavily on the
pick or the shovel or standing aimless-
ly gazing into space. The work Jagged
as it always does when one watches
the clock. 1t was only when the Wills
tie blew at twelve or at six o'clock, and
they dropped their tools that they
sprinted up and showed any speed.
My father used to tell of man who
was regularly looking for work and
hoping all the time that he would not
find it. There are many like him,
am convinced, yet such men can hardly
hope to make much advancement or to
get much pleasure out of life.
One ought to like his work: he
should go to it with pleasure and leave
it with regret. The man who cannot
bring himself to like work is due for a
great many disagreeable moments if
he lives long, for the majority of us
will have good deaf of it to do be-
fore we so to our eternal rest, and
possibly afterward.
The most unhappy people know are
the people who have no work to do
who spend their time as they like, and
grNmble because there is no variety in
life. Work seems to me one Of the
greatest blessings, that our Creator de
vised for US When, for his disobedi-
ence, man was condemned to earn his
bread by the sweat of his brow,
have always figured out that If he were
not actually found mot guilty" he, at
least, received the minimum penalty.

LIKING WORK
BY THOMAS ARkLE CLARK

MY neighbor Warner down the
street is always busy. During
the spring and summer can see him
at almost any hour of the day potter
ing about the yard His lawn is al
ways carefully moved. His borders
are in order. The little garden back
OF his house is carefully cared for.
When snow falls during the late au-
tumn or winter he is the first man on
the street to have his walk cleaned.
He is not satisfied with just pushing
a reluctant shovel down the middle
OF the path to the street He cleans
the whole expanse neatly and pains
takingly, and extends his labors to the
walk along the front of his lot. Some
times when he feels more than ordi-
narily full of pep" he does the work
of the widow next door. l have al
ways felt that when man living on
corner lot shovelS the snow from
the walk all about his premises, it is
a pretty good indication that he likes
work. Work is for Warner an avoca-
ton, hobby, a delight He enjoys
it. His greatest grief is the thought
that he may some day not be able to
work. In some ways he is unique.
"Why do you work so constantly"
| asked him one day when he seemed
more than ordinarily aggressive.
Il don't know any better" he an
swered. "But any way, I'd rather
work than eat"
There are not many like him. Few
people, whom l have known would
work if they did not have to, or if
through early necessity they had not
cultivated the habit with such persist
ence that it is easier for them to con-
tinue the practice than to give it up.
They take consolation in the fact that
they may some day be able to evade
work entirely.
Every autumn | am besieged by a
