The reports as to the probability ot a settle mut of the anthracite coal strike which have been current for a couple of dsvs seem to have a basis o( (act and there is more than a likelihood that the most disturbing featute In the industrial situation for tome time, is in process of elimination. An encouraging feature in the iron and steel situation, is the number and character ot foreign inquiriea. The demand for structural material continues steady ami prices are firm. The (act that the tin plate scale re mains unsettled produces but little effect. Hut little of sigmltcanoe is to be extracted from the movement of prices. - Wheat has been somewhat irregular, and prices shift listlessly, being about where they were this time last week. Absence of foreign demand owing prob ably to larger Russian ahipmeuta, coupled with higher freights, tended to the onset tletuent. Spot cotton is up on the week, but the general market bad Coctnated ner vously, influenced on the one baud by heavy port receipts, and on the other by apparent famine conditions.

Just then forty Chippewa "bravM' who had pretended to have furs to sell, but who had really been watching an opjiort unity to plunder, came up to the fort aud iHiured liudde the Blockade, Pierre, the tTeiiohtnau, had Imrely time to bar the uuilu door wheu they rushed against It, showing plainly their utirrleiidly ui'ios. A purley with the chief, through a small side-trap, re sulted In the. withdrawn! of the Indians outside the stockade aud an agreement to admit the chief alone, with the furs; Pierre thua relates what followed: I Instructed my man, McTaggart, to watch when the Indiana were well out of the yard, and when the chief came In to make a dash aud fasicn the outer gnte. I then opened the door. Mc Taggart slipped out, but had not made one step when the chief struck uitu with his tomahawk, kllliug hliu In stantly. The savage then durted through the half-0en door, and, parry ing a blow 1 aimed at hint, tie seised the bar which fastened the door and threw It outside.

Before I could fasten the door tli whole gang had burst Into the fort. I sprang behind some casks and bid myself there, feeling, however, sure that they would And and kill me. There can lie no doubt about my fate If the savages had uot been more eager for plunder and whisky than they were for vengeance. As It was. one of them at once rushed to a cask of whisky, the head of which he stove In with his hatchet, and with the greatest eageiuens the whole crowd began to help themselves to the contents. That they would drink themselves drunk was now my only hope and op portunity, and I quietly kept out of sight behind the empty barrels to await events. Tbe Idiotic abandon and general 'cutting up" ot the savages as they came under the influence of the whisky was very ludicrous; but you may be sure I kept my laughter to myself. In an hour all were hoielessly lutoxlcnted, except one big fellow who seemed to have a stronger head than the rest. I now felt that with my pistol In my hand I could light at least on equal terms. If a fight was necessary; but the rascal precipitated matters by turning over the cask of whisky while climbing to reach some plunder that be wanted on an tipper shelf. In doing this a live coal was Jarred oflt of tbe stove Into the lhiuor on the floor and the room was immediately In flames. The Indian who had caused the catastrophe sprang toward tbe door, but my pistol ended his career. The whisky was soon consumed, as there was but little left, and the fire was put out without doing large dam age, but many of tbe drunken savages on the floor were fatally burned. When the men came back from the lake and found so many dead Indians and saw the general ruin they were amazed, and supposed I deserved all tbe credit of tbe capture of the assailants, etc., when It was merely an accident that bad accomplished It.

"Once In a while we lead," said Mr. Bozssle, "that tbe ship 8o-and-8o or the steamer So-and-So lias returned to port, or has arrived, perhaps, with 'a decided list; cargo shifted.' Sometimes we see a land craft, a truck, with cargo shifted a big pile of boxes, towering high, shaken over to cue side or the other by continued Jolting along on the side of the street on the slope. "A load thus shifted can't be shaken buck by running along on tbe opposite slope of the road; It is like a stick of wood that has been bent and kept bent J till tbe grain is set; whatever you do with It the crook stays In, I "If care is exercised In turning cor ners and In navigating generally,' tbe shifted load can usually be carried to ' its destination as It Is without upset-1 ting, though It may work harder; the experienced truckman knows , just what can be done with It, and whether It has shifted so far as It will go, and all that. If It Is so badly shifted a to make the operation of the truck dlfll cult or dangerous, he hauls to one side by the curb and anchors that Is to say, be halt and unloads the shifted top course of bl cargo and then re load aud make everything trim and secure and sets out again.", The renewing of an old orchard in tbe (all should be don by plowing it and turning the sod under, followed by an application of 10 bushel of air lacked time per acre. A disk bar row may then be used, when a liberal coating of manure should be given, allowing it 40 remain on the surface of the ground a a mulch. Owing to tbe roots the plowing cannot be done close to the trees. (A4 A&e You SSTOaaa Ol tbe fact that Mining Ktock ar the beat kind of Investment? YV mean lis high-grade kind ol Blocks.
