THURSDAY, JUNE 8,1893 As an illustration of the accuracy with which the new fast trains between Chi cago and New York keep to the figures of time card, a writer in the Chi cago Herald tells of the meeting of the two exposition trains on the Lake Shore railroad in the course of the first run : "At 11 :55 o'clock Sunday night, when No. 10 had juet flashed past Ripley Crossing exactly on time, Western Pas senger Agent Wilber of the Lake Shore quietly remarked : 'Gentlemen, we pass No. 41 in exactly two minutes. Won't you step to the back platform and see it?' With every nerve strained, the members of the party huddled into the rear vestibule. 'We pass her in thirty seconds,' said Mr. Wilber, stop watch in hand. The confidence of the man was sublime. He had received no word from No. 41, not even that it had started from New York. 'In twenty seconds,' said Mr. Wilber, as calmly as if merely reading his watch-dial. Not a man in the party doubted the statement. 'In ten seconds,' spoke the prophetic voice, and that tingling, hair-lifting sensation which the patriot feels when listening to martial music electrified the group. 'Five seconds four three two one she's due.' Whirr, crash, three times three and a tiger. Both trains exactly on time. It was the apotheosis of rail roading. Astronomical exactness ap plied to a time card. 'Good night, gen tlemen ; lam going to bed,' said Mr. Wilber." After careful examination of the many models presented, the United States army, through its recognizable head, has declared in favor of the Krag-Jor-gensen. magazine rifle, and the manu facture of the new arm will probably soon be commenced at Springfield armory. It is something of a blow to our national pride to be compelled to confess inventive inferiority. This un accountable discrepancy for our inven tive genius is far ahead of that possessed by all other nations will undoubtedly soon be wiped out, but for a year or so the United States army and a large pro portion of our national guard will shoot with what, though a foreign product, is now believed to be the highest type of modern rifle. The Presbyterians have mapped out for themselves a big contract for the next few months. Starting in with ousting Dr. Briggs and making a big row in the church they proceed to try to close the world's fair Sundays or break it up, and demand that the Chinese exclusion law be made inoperative. If they succeed in all these small jobs they may turn their attention to the eradication of vol canic outbursts in Japan, and to con fining the orbit of comets to their own system and not be heavenly vagabonds any longer Edwin Booth, the most famous trage dian of the age, died at 1 :15 yesterday morning in New York. For many weeks his death was a foregone conclusion, and the only surprise was that he lingered bo long as he did. This deprives Amer ica of her greatest actor. There is none today upon whom the mantle of Booth can be said tftrappropriately fall. We are fast growing impervious to calamity. The "gold reserve" has been trenched upon and has retrenched, and has retrenched and been trenched upon again, but we are dead to the agony. Nothing can stir up the cockles of our heart, or cause a single hair to stand on end short of a scissors trust or a gum arabic combine. The Languedoc ship canal, in France, by a short passage of 148 miles, saves a sea voyage of 2,000 miles by the Straits of Gibraltar. The office seeker is the unripe states man, and the chances of his being nipped in the bud are numerous and painful. Cat Flowers for sale.

Operations in most departments of the merchandise market has been more of a hand to mouth character than for some time. Prices have been maintained throughout all lines. Money has been firm, although is. easier in tone than reported a week ago. Collections were more satisfactory and deposits larger. Business, while somewhat quiet, is con ducted on a more satisfactory basis. The credit system has been, to a large degree, curtailed, and consequently a healthier condition prevails in all cir cles. The produce market is quite steady. Strawberries are coming in freely, and with a good demand for ex port, prices -range from 10 to 12'cents per box crated. Gooseberries are in fair supply at 25 cents per gallon. New potatoes and green peas are in fair sup ply. Other garden vegetables are plen tiful and prices are nominal. There is no change in the egg and butter market, other than a tone of light daily receipts. The condition of the cereal market on the coast is without change. Eastern and foreign markets are more or less un satisfactory ; reports from the grain dis tricts of Europe and Asia indicate fair crops and a prospect of the usual average for export. Our home market is quiet. Some Klickitat Valley wheat is coming to ihe Diamond Mills and .52 to .55 per bushel is paid. Oats and barley are fine at former quotations and have a fair de mand for home use. The wool market is full stocked with fine grades of wool and is lifeless. Buyers and sellers are apart on prices, offerings range from .09 to .13 cents. Some few sellers are disposing. Eastern markets are still weak. The Boston Advertiser, of the 2nd, says: "Fine fleeces are duil and almost entirely nom inal. Some old lots might be picked up at quotations, but no one believes that new wools will command any such figures as are now quoted. Shearing is going on in Ohio and Pennsylvania, and some idea of what the new wools are worth will be known soon. Medium clothing and combing wools are dull and nominal in price. Delaine fleeces appear to be closely sold out and quotations are nom inal. Unwashed and unmerchantable fleeces are dull, and sales ruling are mostly at inside quotations. For and blood fleeces the demand is quiet, with spot lots moving in a slow way at about 2223c for choice parcels.' Sale to arrive of Southern graded wools are noted below these figures, offers as low as 2021c for Missouri wools laid down here being made, with buyers still hold ing off. Sonie business is being done to arrive in these wools, but buyers are very conservative. Territory wools are very dull and quotations are entirely nominal. Sales have been confined to small lots as a rule, and prices have taken considerable range. Texas wools are dull and nom inal, the lots cleared up being mostly on private terms, which probably means very low. California and Oregon woolw are dull and featureless, with prices nominal. We quote the selling prices of the market for leading descriptions as follows : Ohio and Penn. fleeces No. 1 fleece, 30c ; X and X and above, 26c ; XX and XX and above, 28c. Mich. Wis, etc. Mich. X, 25c; Mich. No. 1, 28c; N. Y., N. H. and Vt. X, 24c; N. Y. and N. H. Ko. 1, 27c.

CO PVR ' CHILDLESS HOME. Smith and his wife have every luxury that money can buy, hut there is one thing lacking to their happiness. Both ore fond of children, but no little voices prattle, no little feet patter in their beautiful home. "I would give ten years of my life if I could have one healthy, living, child of my own," Smith often says to himself. No woman can be the mother of healthy offspring un less she herself is in good health. If she suffers from female weakness, general debility, bearing-down pains and func tional derangements, her physical con dition Is such that she cannot hope to have healthy children.
