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

MARKET REPORT.
Thursday, June 8. The tone of busi
ness for the past week has been quiet.
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.

' 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. Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription is a soverign and
guaranteed remedy for all these ailments.
Worn-out, 4 run-d own," feeble worn en,

It builds them up. It's a powerful, re
storative tonic, or strength-giver free
