Brooklyn, X. Y., Sept. 20. The mag
nificent orpan of the Xew Brooklyn
Tabernacle Mt dedicated to-day. The ser
vices were veritable musical festivals.
"While the regular musical programme at
the Tabernacle is always attractive, that of
to-day was execptionallv beautiful, the Con
gregational Miigiiii, oilertories and inter
ludes being rendered w ith marvellous vol
ume and cirrc-sion. Tr. Talmage's sermon,
which wav appropriate to the occasion, was
on the teM, Ccnesis IV :21: "His brother's
name was .Tubal: he was the father of all
such as handle the harp and organ."
Ltimcch had two boys, tho one a herds
man and the other a musician. Jubal, the
younger son. v as the first organ builder.
He started the first sound that rolled from

This forc-t ot hosanrahs! Its history is pe
culiar. There has been much discussion as to
where music was born I think that at the
beginning, when the morning stars sang to
gether, and all the suns of God shouted for
joy. that the earth heard thu echo. The
cloud on vt hich the angels stood to celebiato
the creation was the birthp'aee of song. In
animate nature is fall of God's stringed and
wind instruments. Silence itself perfect

17VKX TUT. IXSANn MAKE MUSIC.
On Itlackwell's Island I heard, coming
from a w indow of the lunatic asylum, a very
sweet ong. It was sung b3 one who had
lost her reason, and I ha e come to believe
that even the deranged and disordered ele
ancuts of nature would make music to our
car.it e only had ncuteness enough to
listen. I suppose that even the sounds in
nature that are discordant and repulsn e
make hamioii in God's ear You know that
youmay conid so near to an orchestra that
the sounds are nainful instead of pleasur
able: and I think we stand so near devastat
ing storm and fiightful whirlwind, we can
not hear that w hich makes to God's ear and
the ear of the spirits above u, a music as
complete as it is tremendous.
I propose this morning, in setting apart
this organ tor sacred use, to speak about
racred music: flr-t showing jou its iroport
jince, and then stating some of the obstacles
toitsadvancem.'t. I draw the llrstargn
ment for the importance of sacred music
Irom the fac that God commanded it.
Through Paul be tells us to admonish one
nnothcrin psaln-sand hymns and spiritunl
songs: and through David he cries out- "Sing
ye to God, all ye kingdoms of the earth."
And there a:-e hundieds of other passages I
might name proving that it is as much a
man's duty to -ing as it is his duty to pray.
I dniwauotlier argument for the impor
tance of this exerct-e, from the imprcssivo-ne--sol
this exercise. You know something
of w lint secular music has achieved. You
biow it ha-. m;de its impression on govern
ments, upon law-., upon literature, upon
v hole generations One inspiring national
nir is worth 30,000 men as a standing army.
There comes a time in the battle when one
bugle is wo.-th 1.00J musket. I have to tell
you that no nation or church can afford to
everely economize in music. There was a
Scotch -oldier dying in Xen Orleans, and a
Switrli minister came in to give htm the
consolations of the Gospel. The man turned
over on his pillow and said: "Don't talk to
3110 about religion." Then the Scotch min
ister began to sing a familiar hymn of Scot
land, that was composed by David DicUen
1.011, beginning with the words:
Oh. mothrr. dear Jerusalt-m,
"H lien shall 1 come to thee?
THE r-OLDIEU REMEMHKUKD HIS MOTHER.
lie sang it to the tune of "Dundee," and
everybody in Scotland knows thnt; and as
lie beg-in to sing the dying soldier tur.ied
over on his pillow, and .-aid to the minister:
Vbore did voi: learn that? ' "Why," re
plied the minister, "my mother taught me
that." So aid mine." said the dying Iscotch
Soulier: and the t ery foundation b: his heart
wn upturned, and then and there he yielded
himself to Cnri-t
In addition to the inspiring music of our
own day we haver glorious inheritance of
clmr b valui!d which has come down fra
jrrant with the devotions of other genera
tions tunes no more worn out than they
were w hen oui greatgrandfathers climbed,
upon them irom the ciiurch pew to glorj.
Dear old souls, how they used to sing! When
the) were cheerful, our grandfathers and
grandmothers ued to sing "Colchester."
When they weic verv meditative, then
the board meeting lionse rang with
"South treot" and "St. Edmond's."
"Were thev struck through with great
teurierness, tney ang "VI oodstock. i ero
they v. rapp"d in visions or the glorv of tho
Church, they -jing "Zlon." Were they over
borne w Ith the love and glorv of Christ,the3
fang "Ariel." And in those days there were
certain tunes married to certain bvmns.aud
they have lived in pea en a great while, these
, two old people, and we hae no right to di
vorce them. "W it God hntr. joined to
gether let no man pu: a-under."' Hut how
liard-hcaited we mut be ir all this sacred
music of the p.ist, and all the sacred music
ofthc present does not start us heavenward.
A. pinging church is always a triumphant
church! K a congregation Is silent during
the exercise, or partiallj silent, it is the si
lence u" death II, when the hymn is given
out. you hear the faint bum of here and
there a !.it her and mother in Israel, while
the va-t mnjontv are silent, that lmnisterof
Christ w ho is pie-iding needs to have a very
fctnmg constitution it he does not get the
chills, lie needs not only the grace of God.
but nerves line whaleboiic. It is amazing
how some people v. 1m have voice enough to
discliarge all their auttcs in the world, when
thev con.e into the houc of God have no
voice to discharge this dutv. I reallj be
lieve that if the Church of ChYist could rise
upond iugas it ought to sing, that where
ttchavea hundred souls brought into tho
kingdom of Christ there would be a thou
sand. THE ADVANCEMENT Or SACKED JIUSIC,
liut I must now speak of some of the ob
stacles in the way or the advancement of
this sacred music; and the first is that it has
"been impressed into tho service of supersti
tion, lam far Iiom believing that music
ought niwsys to be positively religious. Ke
nned art has opened places where music has
been scrulnr.zcd, and lawfully so. Tho
draw trig loom, the mu-ical club, the orches
tra, the co'iccit, bj tho gratification o! pine
taste, and the production of liannlessaiiiuso
ment and the improicment ot talent, have
become great torces in the advancement of
our civilization. Music has as much right to
laugh m Mnrrj Gardens as it lias to pray in
t-Paul's In the kingdom of natuie -ao
nave the glad fifing of the wind as well as
tbe long metre psalm of the thunder. But
while thisis o every observer has noticed
that this nrr, which God intended for the
Improv. incut of the car, and the voice, and
the he.ul, ana tho heart, has otfen been im-
frossod into the service of lalse religions,
alse iclipions tiaie depended more upon
the hymniiig ot theii congregations than
upon the pulpit pi oclamation of their dog
mas. Another obstacle has been an inordinate
fear of criticism. The vast majority of
people. Mugn.g m church, never want any
bo.yclsc to heir them sing. Everybody is
uniting Tor somebody else to do his dutv. If
wcall sang, then llic inaccuracies that are
evident n lien c.nlj a few -ins would not be
licnrd at all: :h- would be drowned out.
God only asks i ou to do as well t s vou can,
and then, ifyoa tot the wrong pitch, or
Twp wrong time, hc will forgive anv defi
ciency f the ear and imnei lection of the
J irfT -J-Ti
voice. Angels will not langh If you should
lose your place.ln the musical scale, or come
in ut tho close a bar behind. .
Another obstaclo that has been in the way
of the advancement of this holy art has been
the fact that there has been so much nngiy
discussion on the subject of music There
ure those who would have this exercise con
ducted by musical Instruments. In the
same church there are those who do not like
musicnHnstj;uniPnts. In another church it
is a question whether the music shall be con
ducted by a precentor or by a drilled choir.
Then there are those who would ,like in the
church to have the ot can played in a dull,
lifeless, droning way, while there are others
who would haTO it wreathed into fantastics,
branching out in jets and spangles of sound,
rolling and tossing in marvelous.coiivolu
tions, as w hen, in pyrotechnic display, after
yon think a piece is exhausted, it breaks out
in wheels, rockets, blue lights and serpentine
demonstrations. Some would havo the or
gan played in almost inaudible sweetness,
and others would have it full of staccato
passages that make tho audience jmnr, with
great eves and hair on end, as thongh by a
vision of tho Witch or Endor. And he who
tries to please all will fail in everything.
ALL, SHOULD HEL.1 TO SISG.
Another obstacle in the advancement of
this art has been the erroneous notion thnt
this part of the service could bo conducted
by delegation. Churches havo said: "Oh
w hat an easy time wo shall have. This min
ister will do the preaching, tho choir will do
the singing, and we will have nothing to
do.'" And vou know as well as I that there
are a gieat multitude of churches all
through this land, where the people are not
expected to sing, the wholo n ork is done by
delegation of Jour, or six, or ten persons,
and the audience nre silent. In such a
church in Svracuse, nn old elder persisted in
singing, and so tho choir appointed a com
mittee to go and ask the squire if ho would
not stop. You know .that in a great multi
tude of churches, the choir are expected to
do all the singing, and the great mass of tho
ncoplc nre expected to bo silent, and if you
utter vour voice vou are interfering. There
they "stand, the" four, with opera glass
dangling at their side, singing "Rockof Ages
Cleft for Jle,"' with tho same spirit that the
night before, on the stage, they took their
part in the "Grand Duchess" or "Don
Giovanni."
Xow.'in this church, we have resolved upon
the plan of conducting the music b3' organ
and cornet. Wo do it for two reasons one is
that by throning the whole responsibility
upon "the mass of the people, making tho
gieatn ultitude tho choir, we might rouse
more heartiness. The congregation coming
on the Sabbath dav feci that they cannot
delegate this part of the great service to any
onc else, and so thev themselves assume it.
We have had a glorious congregational sing
ing here. People have come many miles to
hear it.
I forgot to state the other reason why wo
adopted this plan. That is, we do not want
anj- choir quarrels. Y'ou know very well
that in scores of churches there has been
perpetual contention In that direction. The
onlv church fight that ever occurred under
iny'ministrv was over a melodeon. in my
first settlement. Have you never been In
church on the Sabbath day, and heard the
choir smg, and you said: vrnnt is splendid
music?" The next Sabbath, you were in that
church, and there was no choir at all. The
leader was mad, or his asistants were mad,
or they w ere all mad together.
When Cromwell's army went into battle,
he stood at the head of them one day, and
gave out the long-meter doxology to the
tunc of the "Old Hundredth,"' and that great
host, company by company, regiment by
r.'giment, battalion by battalion, joined in
the doxology:
PraUc God from whom all blessings flow.
Praise Him, all creatures here IkIow;
Praise lllm abov;. ye lien enly host.
Praise Father, Soa and Holr Ghost.
And while they sang they marched, and
while they marched they fought, and while
thev fought they got the victory. O men
and women of Jesus Christ, let us go into all
our conflicts singing the praises of God, and
then, instead of tailing back, as we of en do,
frtm defeat to defeat, we will be marching
on irom victorv to victorv.
Glory to the Father and to the Son and to
the Holy Ghost, as it was in the beginning,
is now and ever shall be, world without end.
Amen.

"V. I-oomis has invented a unicyclc, with
which he expects to make a mile a minute.
He is superintendent of the new department
of the Southington Cutlery Company. His
model is now being made by one of the
largest bicycle manufacturers in the coun
try, which pronounces his plans thoroughly
practicable. In general appearance tha
machine is similar to those of the same
class already familiar in theory. The idea
is simplicity itself, being a regular safety
machine, half inside a big wheel. The
large outer wheel is nine feet in diameter,
and the inner circumference connected with
spokes to them i eight feet in diameter.
The driving wheel is three feet in diameter,
and rides the big one a little beyond the
center or point'of contact with the earth, so
that it is constantly climbing on the big
wheel.
The plan is that of a man walking inside
of a big hoop, his weight, when thrown
forward, revolving the whole. This fric
tion revolves the big wheel at every evo
lution of the small one, and gives the in
creased f.peed and power. One wheel
surface is concave and the. other convex,
with one surface of rubber The operator
rides a saddle inside the big wheel, over
and somewhat near the driving wheel.

Dairy Products in Liberal Supply
and Markets Weaker.
FARM AND GARDEN STUFF IS SLOW
Heavy Hides Are Scarce and Firm, and Light
Weights Dull.
LEATHER OUTLOOK IS BRIGHTER
Office of PiTrsnrita Dispatch, )
Satcupat, Sept, 19. S
Supply of creamery butter has been more
than sufficient for all demands the past
week and markets have weakened under the
influence of liberal receipts. The advanco
in prices has served to bring oleo to the
front in large quantity and the genuine stuff
has not been able to maintain its hold at the
advance. The supply of peaches is not so
large this week as last, and quality of offer
ings shows improvement, but prices
fail to advance. Business laid in
heavily the past few weeks, and
hence wnnts nre on tho decline. As peaches
wano grapes are coming in to take their
place. Tno latter nro arriving at tharate of
lour to rive canoaus auiiy, nna tno supplies
are beyond tho wants of trade. Vegetables
of all kinds are dull and slow, with adrift
toward lower prices. Sweet potatoes are do1
moralized, ana prices are steadily on the
downward drift. Irish potatoes are also
slow, and prices are a sha'ie lower thnn they
w ere a week ago. The abundance of fruits
has a depressing influenco on all vegetables,
nides and Calfskins.
Heavy steer hides are in active demand at
pricosquoted. Buffs and calfskins are still
slow. Sellers are more anxious than buyers
in the lines or light weight stock, but tho
reverse is true as to heavy steer hides.whlch
are scarce.
Following are prices paid by Allegheny
tanners for stock delivered here:
Xo. 1 green salted steers, 60 lbs and over

The movement in this line is reported by

of last week still stand, prospects for
another advance are good. Stock fails to
accumulate notwithstanding increased

established fact that Allegheny harnes

The Leather Outlook.
The Shoe and Leather Sevieiv, of Chicago, has
this to say of the outlook in its current num
ber: A more hopeful feeling prevails among
tanners and dealers, and orders are being
placed with greater frocdom than hereto
fore. Buyers still adhere to their former
conservative policy to a great extent, and
show no disposition to speculate on future
wants, except wherein concessions can be
obtained. Jobbers of boots and shoes are
having a good demand for fall goods to meet
urgent 'wants of retailers. Manufacturers
have got their spring samples pretty well
distributed throughout the West, and which
call for a better class of goods than last year.
The comparatively low ruling price of
most all lines of leather cannot fail to at
tract buyers to uso a higher grade of stock,
and put on tho market a class of lootwear
that will meet the wants of the most lastidi
ous. Money promises to be easy among the
laboring and producing classes, nnd their
wants will be numerous if big crops, big
prices and correspondingly good demand
for labor are any criterion upon which to
base an opinion. Makers and dealers in
leather and footwear are firmly convinced
that the consumptive demand for those
goods will be unprecedently large, and with
out the usual "between seasons" and slack
ing down after the ball is once fairly set in
motion; thnt an era of prosperity is pre
dicted, such as has seldom, if ever, been
witnessed in the hide and leather trades and
their collateral branches.
Harness leather has met with good sale in
oak and hemlock, and nn advance of one
cent has been readily obtained, with the
tendency still upward. The prospective re
quirements from farmers, as soon as their
crops aro garnered and returns come in,
will naturally be large; they will become
liberal patrons to tho harness makers, and
the old sets of harness that have done
double duty in the cultivating and harvest
ing of tho immense crops, will be replaced
by new. and harness manufacturers are pre
paring for an active fall and winter demand,
as are nlso harness tanners in the purchase
of hides. Collar leather and skirting in
russet, black and the desired shades aro also
meeting with improved demand at firm
prices.

Tho Result or the Week's Operations on
the Local Board.
The past week was an eventless ono in
speculative circles. Trading was of fair
proportions, footing up 1.575 shares, but
new features were conspicuously absent.
Conditions and influences affecting the mar
ket were 'favorable. Tho impulso was up
ward, and nearly everything on tho active
list finished the week either higher or w ith
better backing. The only sale yesterday
w as that of 20 shares of Pleasant Valley at
23.
Closing prices for the week, as compared
with those of the previous Saturday, show
tho following changes: Arsenal Bunk
gained 1; Alleghenv Gas Company, Jf; Cen
tral Traction. : Pittsburg Traction. IK;
Pleasant Valley. ; Xew Y'ork and Cleve
land Gas Coal, 3i; Luster, ; Switch and
Signal, M. Pittsburg Gas Company lost J;
Philadelphia Gas, 5ft Wheeling Gas, 1; Citi
7ens' Traction, ; Electric, ; Underground
mine, 5-
The results of tho week's operations are
encouraging, and although business cut no
great figure it was sufficient to show that
there is money for investment in such
stocks as are handled on tho Pittsburg Ex
change. Shrowd operators in stocks and
bonds feel confident that the new-born
booms at all points to the eastward must In
evitably give nn impetus to business here.
There was a distinot improvement in the
local monetary situation during the week.
Bank clearings, which are a reliable guide
to tbo coudition of general trade, wero
$1 500,000 in round numbers In excess of those
of the previous week, and about $1,000,000
better than in 18S9. There wns a louder call
for funds, denoting industrial and commer
cial expansion, and a more buoyant feeling
all around. Tho result of the w'eek's opera
tions was materially beneficial to tho activi
ties of the city. The Clearing House report
for the day and week reinforces these re
marks. It follows:

Office of Pittsburg Dispatch, 1
Satuuday, Sept. 19. S
CouxTRr Produce Jobbing prices
Grapes and peaches arc in supply above
needs of trade and markets are weak at a
shade lower prices than have prevailed for
some days past. Vegetables of all kinds
are slow. Sweet potatoes are particularly
dull and buyers have the field. Dairy
products are in bountiful supply and drift
of prices is toward a lower level. The best
Elgin creamery butter on the market is
slow at 29c per pound. Some dealers quote
the top of the market at 28$c per pound.
Ohio cheese is quiet and New York make is
firm at quotations. Strictly fresh eggs are
firm at a shade higher prices than have
ruled of late. Lemons and oranges are
firm with a tendency to a higher level of
prices. Dealers in tropical fruits, however,
report very slow trade, and tor reasons good
and sufficient, namely, the abundance and
low prices of peaches, grapes and apples.

STRONG AND ACTIVE.
NEW YORK MARKETS CLOSED TVITH
PRICES niGHEE.
Tho Best Prices of tho Day Ruled at tho
Close The Buyers Greatly Outnumbered
the Sellers Bonds and Stocks Firm and
Steady.
Xew York, Sept. 19. The stock market to
day was extremely active at the opening,
showing a marked decrease on that point
from the heavy trading of yesterday, and
while displaying considerable irregularity
was in the main decidedly strong and the
result or tho two hours seen to-day
is to leave most of tho list fractionally
higher than last evening and some are
materially so. Tho importation of gold was
the chief item of news with a tendency to
affect values, but there wns little said about
it and it mav be doubted whether it had any
material influence in making the gains of
the day.
The opening wrs strong and very active,
nnd while most of the list were fractionally
higher than last evening, Burlington at 99
was up Vi per cent. It was natural that
after such a gain there should be some reac
tion in tho stock nnd being Joined by Read
ing affected the rest of tho list to a limited
extent. Realizations were the chief factor
4n such declines ns were soen, but tho de
mand for stocks was still very urgent and
the buyers outnnmberod the sellers and the
course of prices was soon again turned in
the direction of higher figures. In the up
ward movement the Grangers had first
place, but there, wore a few other leading
shares which commanded attention
on account of their strength, among which
Lake Shore and Xorthern Pacific preferred
were most prominent. Among the special
ties Distillers was conspicuous because of
the sharp loss of 3 per cent in tho early
trading, Dut this was afterward entirely ,
made up, while Buffalo, Kochesterand Pitts
burg was very strong on light trading. The
bank statement shows only a nominal loss
in the reserves while exhibiting a material
increase in the deposits and a heavy ex
pansion of loans, and was considered good.
The traders again went in to cover their
shorts in the flnnl dealings, and the market
developed marked strength, finally closing
active and strong at the best prices of the
day. The final. changes of noto comprise
advances in St. Paul 1, Northern Pacific
pre! erred 1. Buffalo, Rochester and Pitts
burg nnd Sugar each , Lake Shore 1 per
cent.

NEW WELLS ALMOST DDE.
SETEBAT, GCS TIERS EXPECTED
DEATSLOP THIS TVEEIC
TO
f
The Progress of the Wells About Mc
DonaldNew Locations in the South
west McCurdy Pool Operators Pushing
to the Front in Washington County.
It is believed that the coming week will
see a big increase in the production of tho
southwest pools, from McCurdy to 3IcDon
ald. There are a number of wells which
will reach the last sand, and on account of
locntlons are expected to bo almost as big
as any of the gushers which thus far have
been developed. The great body of the
pool or that part of it between tho Miller
farm at McDonald and the Mertz and
Wright in southwest McCurdy, is yet in its
infancy. There have been only enough wells
drilled on this line yet to develop
some of the rich spots which are supposed
to exist all thTongh tho territory. Among
the wells due this week are Gufloy, Murphy,
Jennings & Co.'s Xo. 1, on the Herron. and
their Xos. 1 and 2 on the Bell farm. These
are in close proximity to the Matthews
well. An outlet from the Royal
Gas Company's well, on the Mary
Robb farm, has yet to be fonnd. It Is tho
farthest to the wost in the lower end of the
field, and unless there is a break batween it
and Gartlnnd & Hays' Xo. 2, on tho Miller
farm, and Gnckcrt & Steele's Xo. 1, on tho
Mevey, it shows a pool of exceptional rich
ness and nearly a mile " in width.
There aro only tho three wells
named on this east and west belt, but to
the northeast of the Miller and the 3Ievey
farms is tho Elliott farm well of Guflnv.
Murphy & Co., which has been producing 100
barrels an hour.
Almost Completed.
McDonald W. P. Black's wells, on the Mc
Xall. Springer and Dr. Jamison lots, will
reach tho Gordon sand to-day or to
morrow, and should get the fifth
before tho end of the week.
They are all locat-d southwest of tho IT. P.
Church lot well. The Devonian Oil Com
pany's Xo. 2, on tho Fayall Xo, 2,
on the J. II. Robb, nnd Xo. 1,
on the Elliott, are dne to get tho fifth by
next Saturdaj-. Tbey nro on three sides of
the Mary Robb well. Roland & Co. aTe still
fishing on top or tho fifth sand on the McLatn
lot, located 200 feet east of tho Short lot
well. J. B. Sammels is fishing for a bit on
tho Ed. McDonald property! George S.
Martin & Co.'s well on the Druart property
is drilling at 1,750 feet, and their well on the
Helser lot is down 1,400 feet. W. P.
Bond's venture at his Laurel Hill coal
mines, half a mile northeast of
JfcDonald station, is down 1,300 feet.
He is confident that he is not tot) fir to tho
east, and that ho is on a line from the
Xoblestown and Oakdalo wells. Gartland
& Hays Xos. 3 4 and 5 on the Miller farm aro
nearinjr the Gordon sand. Guckert & Steele
havo put the last casing in their Xo. 2 on the
Mevcy farm.
Through tho Said and Light.
McCmtDT Tho reports from Hoffman &
Co.'s well on the Moore farm are that it has
been drilled through the fifth sand and will
not be better than a 60-barrel a day well.
Kennedy, Gordnier & Co.'s X'o. 2 on tho
Mertz farm is down 400 feet and they will
commence drilling at their Xo. 3 Mertz to
day. Kpnnedy. Fitzgibbons & Botts Xo.
1 on the Moore farm is expected
to get the fifth sand to-day. It was a good
gasser in the Gordon sand. Mellon & Co.
have started to drill their Xos. 2 and 4 on
the Xeeley; Xos. 1, 2 and 3 on the 3Iortz, and
Xo. 1 on the Ewing farm. They havo rigs
up for Xos. 1 and 5 on the Xeeloy, and have
located Xos. S and 6 on the Xeeley and Xos.
4 and 5 on tho Mertz.
Pushing to tho Front.
Mellon it Co. have commenced to build a
rig in the center of a 2,000-acro lease in In
depenence township, Washington county,
on a 45 line to the southwest of McDonald.
George Davis & Co. havo a stock of 1,000
acres in the same township and are building
a rig.
Will Drill for Gas.
The Philadelphia Gas Company has com
pleted a rig on the Jonathan Aiken farm in
Stovte township. Allegheny county.
That aiasontow'n Well.
The Fayette County Gas Company's ven
ture at Masontown, seven miles south of
Unlontown, is filled up 1,301 feet with oil
from the Big Injun sand. It wns five days
in putting this much oil in the hole. They
are working it for a mystery and are drill
ing it to tho Gnntz sand. Farmers are ask
ing from $50 to $100 an acre bonns for leases
lr. tho vicinity. The country about it is
very rough and monr.tainous. It is sup-
Sosed to bo a northeast spur of tho Mt.
orris pool.
Saturday's OH Markets.
The market was strong nnd fairly actlvo
Saturday. Very little was said about cash
oil, the only quotation on it being a bid of
60c, October being more desirable. This op
tion opened nt 03c, highest, 61c; lowest, 59c;
closed at 61c.
This was the highest point touched during
the week. The lowest was 55c, showing a
range of 7 cents. The gain for the week was
about 5c.
Re fined closed at Xew York at 6.206 33c;
London, 5d; Antwerp, 15f. Runs for the
week increased 10.C0O barrels: shipments did
little more than hold their own.

highly recommend the Soden Mineral Pas
tilles ("troches' made from the Mineral
.Springs of Soden, Germany). They may be
sately administered to infants of tender age
and women of the most delicate constitu
tion, as they contain neither drugs nor an
odynes. Children in particular like them
on account of the pleasant taste; they are
irresistible in the cure of all chronic and
temporary catarrhal diseases.
