Paul, 6,:X)0; Silver Certificates 20,000. The stock market was comparatively dull yesterday, but the speculation was generally firm in tone. Outside of the coal Bhares, the fluctuations were narrow and the trading was uninteresting. Some small buying for the foreign account helped to twist ain the International stocks. At the opening of business, prices were a shade lower and made a fractional reaction, but the temper of speculation quickly changed . and the tendency was upward until after 31 o'clock, when a raid on the coalers broke Delaware & Lackawanna '2 per cent, and the-others of the group Edison Elec tric of New York fell off 2 per cent, and the general, list a small fraction. Before . noon the pressure on the market was removed, Lackawanna rallying 1'4 and New Jersey Central l's, while Lake Shore advanced 1'4 pes cent, and most of the other stocks dealt in niado a slight improvement. During the afternoon the speculation was less active and there were Ieriods of extreme dullness, but prices were well maintained and tendency was toward liigher prices, right up to the close, although the gains were slight. The appreciation In value on the day ranged from l '.. to 1 per cent., the' latter in Distilling trust receipts which were in good buying In belief that the deposit of the stock with the reorganization committee insured the -uccess of the plan and would result irt the vacation of the receivership wlfhin a short time. New England made a gain of l1; Lake Shore, Chicago & Eastern Illinois preferred and National Starch, 1; Susquehanna & Western preferred, . Metropolitan Traction broke 4Va per, cent, on Hales of 1,000 shares, Edison Electric of New York 3 per cent. Delaware, Lackawanna & Western made a net loss of 2 per cen t. A few other shares declined a small fraction. The market In the final dealings was very dull, but closed fairly firm. The bond speculation was quiet, but in the main firm. The sales were $1, 181.000. The more prominent changes are: Advances St. Paul, Dakota & Great Southern lives, 24: Lehigh sevens and Wllkesbarre consols sevens assented. 2. Government bonds were steady.

DULL DAY IN CEREALS
WHEAT nE3IAlXED COMPAH ATI VELY FIRM, CLOSIVG 1-SC LOWER. Corn Wan Also Off 1-Se, hat Outs Advanced 1.4c and Provisions Finished ut Moderate Advances. CHICAGO, March 28.-Wheat was dull to-day, but firm the greater part of the session on dry weather. May closed c lower, May corn closed c lower, May oats gained c and provisions finished at advances. The dry weather assumed serious aspects in the eyes of many of. the shorts in wheat at the start and their nervousness led to some liberal coverings at the opening. There were sellers of wheat at the close of the market yesterday at 55c for May, but this morning nobody would sell it for less than hUVjc and there were plenty of buyers at that. The limit of price beyond which the shorts wert not inclined to go, except on further compulsion, was Boon reached at 55c and, having paid that for a ;few fives, they refused to climb any higher at that time. The weather bureau here sent out early intimation of what might be expected of the elements up to Friday night and there was no rain in the prediction. The signal service people at New York and, St. Louis, however, wired here that there would be rain in the West commencing on Friday afternoon. The latter prediction created a less anxious mood to supplant the earlier fever of .the shorts and the price dropped back' for a moment to 55i55c. Apart from the uncertainty of the weather there was nothing in the market news to seriously disturb the market.' The receipts at Minneapolis and Duluth were 245 cars, against 252 a year ago. . The total receipts at primary markets amounted to 220,000 bushels, CDmpared with 254,000 on the corresponding day the year before. The export clearances were equal in wheat and flour to 355,000 bushels, of which 229,000 bushels was in the shape of wheat. The foreign news was inconsequential. Liverpool was quoted a trifle higher and Paris and Berlin a shade lower. A New York dispatch said that advices from Argentine were to the effect that the crops , of that country had been damaged by rain. May wheat dropped to 54e half an hour from the close. Covering purchases amounting to perhaps 1.000,000 bushels made by Pardridge caused a recovery from the last named quotation And the latest trading was at 55e. The corn market was dull and without any very noteworthy features. The primary market receipts to-day amounted to 180,000 bushels, against 384,000 bushels a year ago. The advance of the price for July delivery, as compared witli May, which has been in progress for a few days, indicates that the longs are changing their deals over into the later deal. May corn opened at 46c and the early firmness of wheat helped to sustain it at , near the opening quotation" for some time, but the subsequent weakness in wheat ? caused a corresponding feeling in corn and the price declined to 4646c about forty-five minutes from the close. The latest trading was at 46c. Oats was fairly active. There was good buying early and prices were firmer. Later, however, orders were evidently filling up and with a slack demand and the weaker feeling then prevailing in 'corn the strength gave way to a decline. The lowest price of the day. nevertheless, did not reach below- yesterday's last quotation. May sold between 29c and 29c and closed at 29c, July ranged from 29c to 28c and rested at 29c. The principal feature to the market was the urgent demand for cash stuff for shipment. v The provision market was strong.

Henri JLeyret. a literary man. started business as a marchand de vln, or publican, in one of the most crowded districts of Paris. He has embodied his peculiar experiences in a book entitled En Ple.n Faubourg," which has lately been published by Charpentler. M. Leyret. after having denounced the bad drink supplied to the working classes not always through the fault of the publicans, but, rather, due to the wholesale merchants gives it as his opinion that thoee who live by the sweat of the brow have an aversion to debt. The bad payers and those who want drinks chalked are the exception, and it is needless to say that they are the Idlers, the loafers and the confirmed drunkards. These men neglect no opportunity of sponging or of obtaining drink on credit, without the least intention of paying for the absinthe or wine supplied to them. As a rule tne laborious people avoid the taverns wherein the loafers assemble. The author also alludes to a discussion on Zola which he overheard. One of his customers, while gazing at a portrait of the novelist, maintained that the working classes had been labeied in the "Assommoir." ' Is the workman, asked the anti-Zolalst. "to bo represented as an eternal drunkard because he drinKs a glass now and then?" The listeners applauded this speech, but another man stood up for Zola, saying that if the novelist had exaggerated a little it was done in the interest of the working classes, whose vices were to be attributed to the bourgeoisie. M. Levret met a confirmed absinthe drinker of a curious type. This man was one of the best carpenters in the dis trict and when sober was never out of work. For weeks he would refrain from touching a glass of the green fairy, out, suddenly forgetting the good resolutions, would launch forth into a carouse on his favorite beverage, never going to bed until he had swallowed twenty-four glasses of absinthe, with copious draughts of wine in between. The author notes that the average faubourien workman is generally more given to eating than drinking. He cats meat, if possible, at luncheon and dinner, the former meal being the more substantial. He Is careless about the future and looks forward to dying straight off when he shall be no longer strong enough to toil. Alluding to the pleasures of the people, M. Leyret is glad to state that Beranger's songs have not yet lost their charm for the toiling masses. As to the relations of the sexes, the author of "En Plcin Faubourg" says that free unions are increasing among the workers, domestic arrangements being made on a family bas'.3. The girls who leave their shops and factories for the Champs Elysees or the main boulevards are, however, shunned and despised by the faubourlens. M. Leyret concludes his interesting volume by some observations- on the feeling of the working classes towards the Anafchist and revolutionist movements in their midst. At present, he points out, material exigencies and the necessity of living keep the average workman resigned, but a desire of revenge lurks in his breast against a society in which he has to toll without the hope of what he considers an adequate reward for his services and without any security that, after a life of labor, he will enjoy some repose with a moderate competency. l.VUERSOLL OX SHAKSPEARE. Brilliant Word-Pulntlnsr by the Noted . Lecturer. New York Commercial Advertiser. If Shakspeare knew one fact he knew Its kindred and its neighbors. Looking at a coat of mail he instantly imagined the society, the conditions that produced it, and what It in turn produced. He saw the castle, the moat, the drawbridge, the lady in the tower, and the knightly lover spurring across the plain. He saw the bold baron and the rude retainer, the trampled serf, and all the glory and grief and feudal life. He was a man of imagination. He lived the life or ail. He was a citizen of Athens in the days of Pericles. He listened to the eager eloquence of the great orators, and sat upon the cliffs, and with the tragic poet heard "the multitudinous laughter of the sea." He saw Socrates thrust the spear of question through the shield and heart of falsehood. He was present when the great man drank hemlock, and met the night of death, tranquil as a star meets morning. He listened to the peripatetic , philosophers, and wa unpuzzled by tho sophists. He watched Phidias 'as he, chiseled shapeless stones to forms of love and awe. .- He lied by the mysterious Nile, amid tho vast and monstrous. Ho knew the very thought ' that wrought the form and features of tho Sphinx. He heard great Memnon's morning song when marble lips were smitten by the sun. He laid him down with the embalmed and waiting dead, and felt within their dust the expectation of another life, mingled with cold and suffocating doubts the children born of long delay. He walked the ways of mighty Rome and saw great Caesar with his legions in the field. He stood with vast and motley throngs and watched the triumphs given to victorious, men, followed by uncrowned kings, the captured hosts, and all the spoils of ruthless war. He heard the shout that shook, the Coliseum's roofless walls, when from the reeling gladiator's hand the short sword fell, while from his bosom gushed the stream of wasted life. FARMERS I.V CUBA. ' They Worlt and Exist Under Loathsome and Distressing; Conditions. Lippincott's Magazine. Between the condition of the planter and that of all other arti:uiturists whatever In Cuba the widest differcn-'e exists. The laborer has nothing, never has had anything, and Is happy in the knowledge that he never will have anything. The small farmer, the owner of a few acres, is the most abjectly poverty-stricken son of the soil that I have ever met. He lives in the poorest habitation known to civilized man, a hut made of the bark of the palm tree. Beside it th adobe dwelling of the Mexican is a palace. It has one room, a dirt floor, neither window nor chimney. In this the family live like cattle, subsisting upon the poorest of food, as most that the soil produces must go to pay the taxes. Children run about guiltless of the knowledge of clothes until six or eight years old. Books, education, the world, are things of which they have never even c'reamed. It is true that there la an intermediate group. Between these people tnd the planters Is a email contingent of thrifty farmers. Hero and there through the country may be seen a stone dwelling with red tile roof that marks the home of one who by some rare enterprise has become possessed of enough land to engage in cattleraising or fruit-growing. But the rcsper-r ous, forehanded, middle-class farmer is conspicuous by his absence. It Is because the country people are either the owners of great estates or else anjectly poor, that It is a mistake to speak of Cuba as a rich country. It cannot be so while the present conditions exist. But. with such a combination of soil and climate as she possesses, the island i9 capable of great things. Money and enterprise are needed for the .development of Its resources, and these are not likely to be forthcoming while the present social and political conditions remain. If the. island were open to American enterprise as freely as our own territory is, a decade would suffice for the working of great changes. Da Maurlcr Takes On Awful. A learned traveler who was lately per mitted to look through a window pane at George Du Maurier says that he Is kept in close seclusion, nobody being permitted to see him, the slightest ali.ialon to "Trilby" causing him to "roth at the mouth. Every morning Mrs. Du Maurier carefully reads the paper and cuts out all the note about "Trilby" and throws them In the fire. Then she lets the wretched man read the news. The Harpers have been warned to address no communication to him, not even bills of exchange for his profits, lest they should remind him of "friilby," and he should go mad. On a recent morning at breakfast, Mrs. Du Maurier, opening the mail, paused to examine one communication. "What is it?" asked Mr. Du Maurier. "Oh," said she, thoughtlessly, "it's that little bill" With a wild shriek Du Maurier rose and, began hurling the china. "What, again," he howled. "Little Billie again. Where Is he? Where is he? Oh, let mo pet at him." And it was quite a while before he could be calmed and told his mistake. OTICE C1IAXGE OF XAMK. State of Indiana, Marlon county, s. In the Circuit Court, March term, 1895.
