money nnd a lot of silverware were
carried orf. Mr. Hallock is a commer
cial traveler and Is away from home
a givat deal, though ho was homo
last nluht. He la unable to say at
what time the house was entered, but
(snys that this morning when Mrs. Hal-
iuck arose sno asKeti mm wnere lie
placed his vest and trousers. He re
plied that he had hung them on the
footboard of the bed as usual, but on
looking tho garments were not there.
A search was then made and the
trousers nnd vest were found lying
on the stairs leading to the ground
lloor The money and watch were
missing and a subsequent Investiga
tion revealed that a lot of silverware,
valued at $1E(, had also disappeared,
though several pieces of plated ware'
of considerable less value were found
In their customary places. From their
position Mrs. Hallock says they wero
doubtlefis handled by the burglars who
found thoy were plated. It was found
also fiat lh visitors had effected an
entrance through a rear door which
they had forced open.
In the street In front of the house
the tracks of a couple of bicycles were
found early this morning and those
mctst Interested advance the theory
that the burglars arrived and took
their departure on wheels.

dark shadows of this eclipse will fall
upon Mexico, the Islands of Cuba and
the Atlantic ocean. This will bring
sorrow and destruction to Mexico,
Cuba &nd all other places within tho
patnways of Its dark shadows, but joy
and prosperity to the United Stateu, ns
the eclipse will occur only as a partial
eclipse to those in Noith Ameiiea south
of the Ctth parallel of latitude. A
picture of this coming eclipse together
with the time It begins and ends at
difterent plutes will be sent free for
postage to any address.
Gram and hay should always be cut,
and J'uilt of all kinds should bo gath
ered nt "High Flood" time. For full
lnfoimation send tor our ((High Tlood

will soon become a microbe morgue for
deud vegetation. Thousands of acres
of potatoes will be destroyed this year
by the miasmatic microbe.
THE STORMS FOR JULY.
There Is at present a sea of gaseous
matter passing over tho sun, cutting
off the tegular suprly In some locali
ties and pouting down an excess upon
othsrs. This means extreme boat for
borne and cold weather with ftost, hall
and snow for others. Last month the
earthquakes, hail storms, frost and
snow came as we predicted. And, now
we warn you all to bo on the lookout
for some awful surprises! See our
"Stoim a'nrt Sign Calendar." A comet
Is coming Into view. There will he
more earthquakes or terrible wind
storms, ns tho black lightning currents
are all running southward. Phenom
enal hail storms will dostioy much
vegetation; cloudbursts, hurricanes
and floods will make terrible havoc In
some of the western and southern
states. The Atlantic coast will be In
great danger unless the black lightn
ing currents ground and produco nn
earthquake. Terrible thunder show
eis will make the old earth quake!

NEWS OF OUR INDUSTRIES.
It seems tho Lehigh and Wllkes
Rarre Conl company's expenses are a
little too high. Tho officials have been
contemplating rutting down expenses
for some time and now they are nflt
In real earnest. Assistant Superinten
dent Warren of the Lehigh and Wilkes
Barro Coal company, whose oftlco Is lo
cated In New York, came to this city
a few days ago and explained to the
different bosses under tho company that
they must reduce expenses. Mr. War
ren then made a visit to tho difterent
breakers nnd after his visit he came
to tho conclusion that there were too
many men employed as outside hands.
Ho visited the Empire shops and sus
pended about ten of tho employes. He
also laid off a number of the employes
on the repair gang at the Empire. He
then made an examination of the dif
ferent workings nnd departed back to
New York to report his work to Su
perintendent Maxwell. Tho men he
suspended will be compelled to remain
Idle for at least a few weeks. Wllkes

The senate committee on finance has
fixed tho duty on conl nt 67c. per long
ton. This rate applies only to coal
shipped from countries which do not
Impose a higher rate on American coal.
It, therefore, affects only Cannda. tho
Canadian rate on American coal being
the same. There has been a Btrong
contention to hold the rate down to that
originally fixed by the committee, and
even to lower It, hut this effort was vig
orously contested by the senators from
the coal producing states and the lat
ter class have won.

The Lehigh Coal and Navigation

The Judge Wun .Not Proof Against
Such Subtle Flattery.
Trom the San Fianclsto Bulletin.
Judge Murphy was trying a case In
San Rafael once. It was a murder case
and bitterly contested. It had not pro
ceeded very far before the attorneys
got to loggerheads. The attorney for
the defense did his best to Imitate the
attorney for the prosecution, and the
prosecuting attorney retaliated with all
his might. Finally matters got to such a
pitch that the attorney for the piosecu
tlon turned upon his opponent and
called him down In open court. Judge
Murphy interrupted, saying:
"Gentlemen, gentlemen, this won't do.
This sort of thing Is very disrespectful
to the court. This Is no place for such
exhibitions. If you gentlemen have any
differences to settle, settle them out of
court."
The attorney for the defense Imme
diately rose and said: "We have no dif
ferences, If your honor please."
"If your honor please," said the
prosecuting attorney, "I wish to say
that we have differences. And I wish
to give notice that when court adjourns
I Intend to crack that man's head over
thoie."
Judge Murphy exploded. "How dare
you, sir? How dare you? This is tho
grossest contempt of court! How dare
you come here nnd attempt to terrify
counsel? I fine you $30, sir; $50."
The attorney said: "That is rather
hard on me, if your honor please. Your
honor distinctly suggested that I should
settle my differences with this man out
of court, and I gave notice of my in
tention to do so. That was all. I have
the highest 'respect and appreciation
of you honor's Judgment In such mat
ters, and I felt pioud to accept your
honor's advice."
Judge Murphy was not proof against
such subtle (lattery, and tho fine was
promptly remitted!

New York, June 30. Today's stock
market was dull compared with recent
days although tho total sales of all
stocks approached 300,000 shores. Of
these over 52,000 were of St. Paul. Af
ter the opening depression the bulls
carried prices very generally abovo
last night's close. The Grangers and
Coalers were pattlcularly strong In this
upward movement and the former
showed the fit most resistance to tho
subsequent decline. The subsequent
reaction wiped out tho gains through
the whole list and the only Important
stocks to rally to a net giln were Del
