) THE SCR ANTON TRIBUNE-SATURDAY. OCTOBER 1 1898. M UF ( Business is satisfactory WATE OF TRADE THE MOST EN COURAGING IN YEARS. All Changes Are for the Setter with the Exception of Cotton Trnde Is Brisk, More so Thnn at Any Other Time Since 1802 Pig Iron Tlrra. New York, Sept. SO. It. Q. Dun & Co., In their weekly review of trade, Alll say: Failures In September have been ntbout J6.700.00O, and for the quarter rfbout J22.87i.000. No report covering .the exact month or quarter Is possible this week for a Journal which must bo to press on Friday, the 30th, but the returns Indicate a smaller aggregate of failures than In any other month In many years except in August of this year, and smaller for the quarter than any other quarter since 1892. In fact, excepting one-qunrter In that year, no other appears to have shown a smaller aggregate unless more than ten years ago, when the volume of solvent busi ness was very much smaller than It Is now. Evidently tho complete returns to bo given next week will show that the state of business Is In that respect more satisfactory than It has ever been unless In one quarter of 1802. Changes are all for the better ex- 1 ceptlng the fall of cotton to the lowest . point for CO years, and even the lowest prices of 1848. considering differences of qualities, wero perhaps not lower than prices this week. If there wero not on hand commer cial and mill stocks unusually large, or If manufacturing were more success ful, early recovery might seem prob able but the heavy fall In material has affected the demand for goods, caus Inr buyers to except still lower prices for them, although after tho decline last week goods now average lower than ever before. While the stagna tion In wool continues, even smaller than in the month of panic year, 1893, numerous mills have started tempor arily In order to get out sample pieces. There has been no quotable decline In wool, and scarcely any in goods, tho recent reduction having stimulated a larger demand. PIG IRON FIRM. With pig iron firm everywhere, in rplte of the extraordinary output, and Bessemer held at $10.40 at Pittsburg, while valley producers report 230,000 tons sold for delivery before June next, the consumption is evidently growing. The demand for Iron bars, owing to in creased use of steel, is in some quarters below expectation, and shipments are less active at Pittsburg though the mills are full of orders. Rail producers are negotiating a new compact, and the usual eastern price $18, is said to be shaded in some quarters while it is pending. But car, locomotive, bridge and structural work 1 exceedlly heavy, and there are no signs of decrease In the demand. Wheat rose 2 cents, but on Thurs day 'declined sharply, closing 2 cents lower for the week, notwithstanding very heavy exports, amount for the week to 4,911,022 bushels against 5,092, 185 last year, and for four weeks to 15,011,962 bushels against 20,681,315 last year, flour Included. The usual babel of guesses does not change the belief that the crop will be the largest oyer grown, and while farmers throughout the west are holding back grain large ly because of low prices, the western receipts are now running above even the extraordinary movement a year ago, both for the week and for tho month. Corn is a fraction lower, with some decrease In export demand, though the recent shipments would havo been considered heavy in any year until tho last, and can hardly bo continued long. f PROF. COLES FOR OCTOBER. Judging from the great sea of gas eous matter that has been passing over the sun during the past few weeks, causing a reversal of the usual meteorological conditions of the weath er, wo have reasons to believe that thero Is a stupendous freak of nature approabhlng that will destroy the meteorological equlllbrum to such an extent that it will not be able to re gain Its balance in several months thereafter, for the planets Saturn, Ur anus, Jupiter and Mercury will be on en sido of the sun and Neptune, Mars, Venus and Earth on the other side In direct opposition and the cross firing of these planets over the sun will cause a break in the gascuos matter ad let the pent up Bun rays escape to earth, causing unprecedent ed heat wave3 and cold waves; air quakes and earthquakes, hurricanes and cyclones, tidal waves, destructive floods, forest flres, etc. The greatest break will occur, we think, some time i A horse In the lead pulls in vain when the wheel horse lays back in the breeching A man's body is a good deal like a team of horses, and must work harmoniously. The head may want to work, and strive ever so hard to work, but If the body is balky and ick the head will make no progress. The man who is out of condition physical ly may as well give up trying to work men. tally. He will not be able to do good work, cr satisfactory work, and in the endeavor to do so will only do himself further harm. The reason that men have nervous exbaus. tlon and prostration is that they try to work the brain when the body is balky. The right thing for a man to do when he finds he Is out or sorts physically is to give the mind a little rest, and promptly resort to the right remedy for his physical ailments. Dr. Pierce's' Golden Medical Discovery is the best of all medicines for a balky body. When the head aches, the appetite is poor, the sleep is restless, the nerves are shaky and both body and brain suffer from dull neis and lassitude, it is time to resort to this great remedy. It restores the appetite, corrects all disorders of the digestion, makes assimilation perfect, invigorates the liver and purifies and nourishes the blood. It Is the great blood-maker and flesh, builder. It is the best of nerve tonics and restoratives. It makes both body and brain lert and active. Medicine dealers have nothing "just as good." "I suffered five years with an ulcer and the doctor here could not do me any good," writes Mr. John Jenkins, of Haywood, Madison Co., J;. "ImJJt "l bottle of Dr. rierce'a Golden Medical Discovery and I am well. I would have been In rftrrutr If it had not been for your raedidne."

If tho break In the gaseous' mater now passing over the sun occurs In tho night times the Eastern states will be flooded, but if It occurs during tho dny time then the Southern und West ern states will receive the greatest affliction. There will bo several un usuel sunset scenes, sundogs, moon circles and Northen lights, The pass ing of tho moon between two of tho brightest stars In the heavens on tho evening of the eighteenth Inst., at good dark, will be a very pretty sight, and no one should forget to take a good look at them, should the evening prove clear. If you have taken any nottco of tho "bright star" now In the south west, you should notice It at once, even though you have to go to tho hilltops to do so, for this star has a meaning that will in due time surprise you. It can be seen In the early even ing only. When this star reaches Sign Leo, down will go another ruler In tho old country, and America will come to grief. The great ocean storms came Inst month, as we predicted they would, and caused great destruction of life and property. THE EARTH DISEASED. The now revelation of unprecedented heat that we foretold Its coming In our August predictions Just came as we predicted It: Because the "Vlbram etor," during the month of July, was In a state of constant vibrations, show ing that some disease was working up. on Poor Old Mother Earth and would cause her tempaturc to rise far above the normal. She Is still trembling and In a very feverish condition, nnd we believe that great eruptions will break out upon her body Vesuvius like during the next three months nnd cause great destruction of life and property. These unnatural vibrations will have a great tendency to prove spontaneous combustions, mine cave Ins, appalling railroad catastrophes and building collapses, etc. They will also cause the physical condition of people In all nations of tho earth to bo kept In a nervous state of anxiety, and ap palling crimes, sudden deaths and aw ful plagues will break all records of the past. IN THE MICROBE WORLD. Our prediction (that typhoid and yellow fovcr would increase in vlru lency during the month of September came true, notwithstanding the fact that nearly all the expert medical men In this country predicted that they would die out nearly. These fevers will continue to rage during tho pre sent month, nnd a new epidemic, a cross between yellow Jack and grip will appear In many sections of the country and cause great consterna tion. The shadow of the "bright star" In tho southwest Is now slowly creep ing up along the coast of tho Atlantic, and we have reasons to believe that somo of the great cities such as New York will bo in lmmlnet danger of a terrible scourge. At low ebb gath ered apples, potatoes, etc., will be at tacked by disease microbes and decay vry rapidly. Another war cloud, composed of human microbes, Is now hanging over America. Our November predictions may suprlse you. Prof. C. Coles, Editor Storms and Signs. Kingston, Pa.. U. S. A., Sept. 21, 1898. IN THE PLAY HOUSES. "A Parlor Match." "A Parlor Match,"- which was popular ized some years ago by Kvans and nls partner, tho Into lamented Hoey, has been revived this season and was pro duced at tho Lyceum last night. It will be seen again this afternoon and tonight. In the company that now has the fate of the farce In Its hands J. W. Klngslcy Is cast for tho slender, voluble book agent. He Is not quite as spare and much less valuable than Kvans, but he makes a very acceptable book agent. Mark Sullivan was excellent us Old Hosa, the collector for an auction room, tho char, acter that Hoey Immortalized. Strung all through the threo acts nro many choice specialties that were well received by tho audience last night. "A Parlor Match" Is still capable of produc ing a number of good laughs. Engagement Closes Today. Tho engagement of the Agnes Hern don company at tho Academy of Music close today. This afternoon "My Uncle from India," a farce comedy, will be the attraction and tonight "Saved from tho Flames" will be seen. Moving Pictures of the War. The Wllkes-Barro Nows-Dealer says of Lyman II. Howe's "Wargraph," which will be seen at tho Lyceum Monnd.iy night: "Somo of tho pictures shown were 4ho Seventy-first regiment of New York parading before depraturo for the front, arrival of troops at Tampa, t'la., morning wash In camp, blanket court martial, tho troops embarking for Cuba, troops landing nt Carnegie I'ler, troops landing at Batqulrl, Cuba; troops march ing to tho front, packing ammunition on mules, pack trains en route, wagon train en route with supplies, Spanish sol diers capturing and shooting Insurgents, lli'tllcship Maine beforel leaving New York hatbor for Havana, United States cruiser Cincinnati, United States cruiser Nashville, United States battleship Iowa, tho flying squadron, tho bombardment or Matanzas by tho flagship New York nnd Monitor Puritan: the flagship New YorK bombarding Cabanas fotress, thrilling war scene, defending the flag, tho dynamite cruiser Vesuvius In action." "Lost, Strayed or Stolen." "Lost. Strayed or Stolen" will appear for onn iilht at the Lyceum on Thurs day. Ci tobcr 4. This clever comedy co.nes to thlsi city with everything bright and new. Tim fun Is bright and clean and never lags for on Instant. The house is kept continually In roars of laughter, or else held spell-bound with delight at the marvelous slnelng of a bevy of pretty girls. "Lost, Strayed or Stolen" Is one of the best comedies ever produced and nas received only words or praise wher ever It has appeared. "Next Door." At the Academy of Music next week the Brothers Royer will appear In "Next Door." It Is mostly pantomime with swift and truly legitimate appeals to ones' sense of humor, without the cx cesslvo fustian no many farco comedies Insist upon flinging at an unoffending public. Thero Is lots of trick properties, trap chair, pivotal doors and windows, and mysterious contrivances. The bur. lesquo absurdities of the acrobafaffollow one nnother like clock-work, 'rTridono wonders if he in over going to stdtTlaugh. Ing, but long after the final curtain he Is still wondering, "The Hoosler Doctor." "The Hoosler Doctor," that admirable comedy drama which Dlgby Bell presents at the Lyceum en Wednesday, October 6, Is excellent in Its character studies. Tho central figure, a middle-aged man, with the pattenco of Job, Is most lovable and one whom an audlcrco Is likely to slvo a warm place In its affection. This part Is played without a single false movo by Dlgby Boll, and Is a plcco of acting which Is winning him great praise. In contrast to this character Is that of a woman who believes that the world Is all In tho wrong and her son-in-law most particularly so and that scolding will set things right. True It Is far wiser to kp dls. esse away than to fight It It after it comes.

Tho stock market displayed a rising tendency for a brief in terval today under the lnfluenco of high er London prices and a moderate com mission houso demand. Support was also extended to tho specialties and for the half hour succeeding tho opening prices gathered headway under lively bidding. This condition of affairs, howover, proved to bo only of the flash In tho pan order for ns soon as the bears were ready to at. tack, they found ready much gossip re garding the character of the Manhattan "L" earnings. Tho uncertainty existing as to tho naturo of tho contemplated Im provements and tho period for the final adoption of the announced cllecUrlcnl equipments aided the bears In their efforts and a sharp decline occurred on heavy of ferings. Frequent feeble rallies were made, but thero wero no strong support. Towurd the closo tho market Armed up In spots and ended with a fairly steady tcne.
