WALL STREET, 10:10 a. m.——Pri-
cos of stocks were a fraction higher
than last night at the opening, but an
immediate reaction in the Hill stocks
turned the market irregular. Great
Northern pfd. and ,Northern Pacific,
after opening up a fraction, declined
to 1 and 2%, respectively, below last
night. Southern Pacific, St. Paul and
Reading also ran off a substantial
fraction.
WALL STREET 11 a. m.—The iii-
tack on the Hill stocks precipitated
selling of other active stocks, especial.
ly Reading and the Western group. The
metal industrisle showed better resist-
ance than the railroad list. Concerted
support developed later and there was
a vigorous rally which sent prices up
buoyantly.
WALL STREET, Noon—After a
short pause and a light reaction buy-
ing was resumed in a large scale and
further advances were made through-
out_ The advance was halted again at
noon. Bonds were firm.
WALL STREET, 1 p. m.—While
buying was curtailed considerably, pri-
ces did not yield much, and there was
a subsequent rise to the highest when
Consolidated Gas became buoyant.

Mental Tribulations of the Supersti-

The superstitious woman started to
go downtown. but found that she had
forgotten something. It was hard work
to get her to go back for it, but when
she did she sat down for a few minutes
to "take the curse off" before going out
again. On the. sidewalk she passed a
cross eyed man and had hard work to
keep from spitting three times over
her left she der. The first car that
came slang was No.13. She let it 80
by and waited eight minutes for an-
other. On the way downtown she re-
marked to a friend that she “had been
In excellent health lately" Instantly
she was obliged to loose her glove and
rub her bare palm on the wood of the
bench before her. As she and her
friend were. walking on Twenty-third
street some thoughtless person darted
betwoen them. The superstitious wo-
man was much disturbed and worried
{liver the thought of a coming separa~
on. .
That night her husband upset the
sallcellar. She insisted on his taking
a pinch of the salt and throwing it
over his shoulder. When she disrobed,
for the night she discovered that she
had been wearing one stocking wrong
side out all day. It was the sign of
good luck. and it allowed her to go to
bed happy. But same time in‘ the night
a dog howled dismally under her win-
dow. From that moment she has been
looking for a calamity. Nothing will
