ing comedian with "A Boy Wanted,"

prominent lawyer the other day and
after a few hours' ride stopped at a
hotel to rest. While seated on the
porch a grlszled old farmer who was
seated nearby Invited Harry to take a
stroll. As they went along, the old man
occasionally would look at Harry's
crooked legs meandering down the road.
At length he said: "Well, young man,
when I was a boy I w as a trifle bow
legged myself and my dad made me
tote sticks on the Inside of my legs so
as to straighten 'em, but I reckon that
you was brought up a-straddle a bar
rel, because you're more bow-legged
than a chicken's wish-bone. He will be
at the Academy on Saturday.
MR. DURR'S PACE.
It Bronght Ilim a Letter Net Folly
Addressed.
That Fred. Durr, hotelkeeper, coun
cilman and general good fellow, Is well
known. Is a fact, and a recent happen
ing more than carries out the truth of
the assertion. A few days ago Mr.
Durr was handed by the postman an
envelope dated Blnghasnton, N. T. The
striking peculiarity of this particular
envelope was that It bore only the
words: "Scranton, Pa." Yet It re Sidl
ed the right man.
The secret of the delivery can be seen
on the left end of the envelope, where a
new spa pr cut of Mr. Durr had been
pasted by the Parlor City sender. The
features were so generally known, and
especially to the mail force, that the
letter journeyed as easily as if the whole
address was there.

MARKETS AND STI
. Wall Street Review.
New York. Sept 8. Speculation at the
Stock exchange during the early trading
was weak In tone. The traders were all
working for lower prices on theory that
a reaction was overdue and they met with
a fair degree ot success In certain parts
'of the list, notably Manhattan. In the
! first half hour or no of burners prices de.
I rllned anywhere from Vi to 2 per cent,
j Manhattan was freely sold and sustained
I the heaviest loss, falling to 80ft against
Stl'i at the close on Saturday. Mannat
tan's weakness affected the entire list,
but the losses were generally confined to
the fractions. Around mid-day the official
announcemnt was made that the directors
of the Manhattan hud declared the regular
dividend of 14 per cent. The Western
Union executive committee have also lcc-
ommended the payment of the regular
quarterly dividend. Another favorable de
velopment was the statement of the St.
Paul road for the fiscal year ended Juns
SO. 1895. This report showed a surplus of
12.018,202, against a deficit of H02.7J5 in 1895.
The developments referred to started up
business In a Hvel y fashion in the last
hour of business and prices bounded up
rapidly. A sharp demand to cover short
contracts prevailed at this time and com
mission houses were also active. The ad
vance which followed ranged from to 3'4
per cent. Manhattan rose 3fc, Sugar 3-,
Burlington and Qulncy 2, Chicago Gas,
S'S, St. Paul l'i Rock Island 2, General
Electric Louisville and Nashville 1,
Tennessee Coal 2 and Western Union 2V.
Speculation closed strong with prices at or
near the top figures of the day. Net
changes show advances of H to 1 per cent,
on the day. Total sales were 191.025 shares.
