SIB 1 BONDS Reading Continues to be the Lead f er 1Wall " Street. CASS?1T TO QUIT PENNSYLVANIA Baer of the Reading Suggested as Hie Successor?Money Market Contin? ues /Firm?Close is at the Lowest and-/Trading Exceptionally Dull. I - 4r* j (Bv Associated Press.) NEW YORK. May 28.?The specula? tion In slocks today sank into apathy. There was a spurt of slight activity in the first hour of the trading. The lion's share or attention was Riven to Reading and if the congested dealings in this stock were deducted the volume of the market would make I n smaller showing oven than <>n last Monday, the dullest day thus far in the present year. It opened lower (hau on Saturday, hut was quickly turned upwards. Something was made of a published rumor of the coining retirement of the President of the Pennsylvania lo be succeeded by the present, head of the Reading and the assumption was % added of closer relations between tho two properties. Money rales were firm today. American Sugar and American Ret Sugar started upwards together as they did several weeks ngo and revived some rumors of in? tended changes in trade retail. The rumors were without any conflrtn lelharglciand the market closed about Saturday's closing level the trading became listless and indifferent and the drift of the prices was scarcely appreciable. The agricultural appro? priation bill In tile Senate with a meat inspection clause and the agita? tion following has added lo the feel? ing of possible damage to values from tho..spread of sentiment- against- eer poralions on account of abuses. Con? dition in the late market became lentharglc and the market close;' stagnant. 'Chicago Grain Market. CHICAGO.

The egg, of course, is regarded by Christians ns a symbol of the resur? rection, nnd, strange' though It may ap? pear, the Mohammedans oro them? selves firm believers in the idea that Christ will return to this world sonic day. Indeed, a promise of this event is written In the Koran, nnd there Is an understanding to the effect thnt the Saviour will descend upon n certain mlnnret of a particular mosque In Da? mascus. So It Is not surprising that some of the Mohnmiuedniis In Turkey should dyo eggs or buy them In the fshops nt Eastertide. Usunlly the eggs ere dyed red, but this Is the caso also tn other countries, the color being In a manner emblematic of the crucifixion. ?-New York Mall, Farfious 8trlks Breakefrfl The most famous strike breokers In the land are Dr. King's New Life Pills.

Daily Press "Want Ada." bring th? desired leanM*. . ;_ BET OF THOUSAND DINNERS \ovcI Waster of Ex-Mnyor McKIiaon of Cleveland, O. Robert E. McKisson; former mayor of Clevelaad. 0.. has wagered 1,000 ill liners on the common sense of tlic present city administration, says the Cleveland Leader. That he may be taking n loug chance seems to be evi? denced by Uie fact that the wager, originally for 100 dinners, was In? creased tenfold the other nfteruoon under the bantering of the nine skep? tics belting against him. The wager will be decided by the erection of the next viaduct connect? ing tlie east and the west sides and the purpose thereof. Mr. McKisson | bets the object of this structure will I be solely to accommodate street rnil wny trallic. Then the Superior avenue( viaduct will be devoted exclusively to. the use of the public, lie disclaims having any inside information upon the Subject, but has no doubt that cominor sense will win. Those betting against Mr. McKisson are II. A. Everett, John I\ Cowing, David Morrison, C. It. Morley. F. II. Townsend and Max Fnctkciitieucr, all of Cleveland; l'\ M. Peer, New York; J. P. Townsend, Akron, and Willis, Unmsey, Alliance. Under the terms of the wager euch of the losers Is to buy ten dinners for each of the other par? ties to the bet. In other words. If Mr. McKisson loses It will cost him the price of 1,000 dinners. If be wins, each of the losers will pay for 100 dln-j uers. Confident of winulng, Mr. McKisson hns already begun figuring upon thoi easiest method of collecting his eata-j hies and drinkables. He has his eyes upon a suit of rooms at the Colonial; hotel, where he will comfortably stretch his legs under the mahogany and feast, for days and weeks and months nt the expense of bis fellow directors in the Hippodrome company. These fellow directors, on the other hand, nro advis? ing him to lay in a new supply of check books. As they are all epicures, none of the checks, If be loses, Is likely to be for a small sum. COLONIES FOR OLD MEN. A Xeir Chnnce In Life For Those Pnat tlie "Arc Limit." The Anil-Age Limit league of Chicago believes that it has solved the problem] of the men who are unable to obtain i employment In Chicago because they have passed the "age limit," says the Chicago Tribune. If plans now under way nre successful such men nre to be sent In great numbers to colonies In Canada and Florida, where they will become the ministers, the schoolteach? ers or tlie busluess men of the newly created towns. Negotiations nre now bel?g cnrxled on by James F. Downey, president of the league, with the managers of three colonization projects, one of which owns land In northwestern Canada, another n tract three and n half miles from Tampn. Fla., and a third an area on the eastern coast of Florida. Towns are to be created here by parties of colonists, and here the old men, os? tracized at home, will begin life anew. "BE KIND TO MARE.'

Itcionrhn ble Smvlnjrn Prom Mender Income*. t Mnny stories are tolil of an eight? eenth century Leicestershire parson, the Kev. Air. Ilagemoro of Ca 1 thorn, who had a mania for collecting, says the London Tit Hits. When he died he lefl hehlnd him :i() gowns and cassocks, 100 pairs of boots, -100 pairs of shoes, BO wigs (not one of which he had ever worn) and loo pairs of breeches. In addition lo this extensive wardrobe lie bad accumulated IUI wheelbarrows, 200 pickaxes. ".no spades, "I ladders, 5S dogs, SO wagons and carls. So plows (he never used out! of thein), 2T.1 razors and an enormous number of walking slicks, for which a toy man gladly of? fered ?S. Mr. Ilngcmore had two servants, one of eaeh sex, both of whom be locked In their bedrooms every night, and it was .through (his precautionary measure that he U?t bis life. As he was Walk? ing in bis garden very earjy one morn? ing his dogs leaped on him and threw him Into a pond. The servants.heard their mnster's cries for help, but in they were locked In they could not go to his assistance, and the reverend gen? tleman was drowned, his boarding* go big to bis next of klu, u I guidon porter. It Is a good mnny years now sines the Itcv, John Trueman of Dnveutry departed this life, kclug behind him tin? snug fortune of ?."?0.000, the accu? mulation of a niggardly lifetime. Some remarkable stories nre told of Mr. Truemnn's miserly habits?bow Its would take turnlpfi from bis parish loners' fields and then beg pieces of bacon to boll with his purloined veg? etables and bow bo would ,'ovito him? self as guest to the bouses of his flock in turn nnd pull the worstud out of tho corners of the blankets to darn Iiis stockings. A more remarkable clerical miser ?tili was the Her. Morgan Jones, a Berkshire curate of n century or so ago. During tho whole of Mr. Jones' forty-three years' curacy of Itlcwbnry, It Is said, a single conl and but served him. When h!s coat showed too pal? pable signs of wear he would cut out a piece of Its tails and patch the lorn or worn part with it until In process of time the tails vanished altogether; nnd the quondam coat was converted Into a jacket, with n patch for almost every dny in the year. When his bat similar? ly showed the ravages of time he ap? propriated (bebend covering of a scare? crow nnd used It for repairing the danl? ?ge. Ills one nnd only shirt underwent tho same patching nud renovation, Its tails following those of Hie coat, while the curate's stockings underwent: so many processes of darning thai not a vestige of the^ original and only pair remained by the time ho bnd no further use for them. For the lnst: twenty years of his life Sir. Jones' household expenses never exceeded half a crown a week. lie In? variably red red nt sunset to save the cost of candles, nnd In the coldest weither nevnr allowed himself the lux? ury' of a tiro except on Sundays, and , then the lire was made from slicks picked up hi the roiuls and church? yard. His menu was limited to bread nnd bacon nnd tea, and a half quartern loaf lasted bun a week. For littln short of.half n century this old clergy? man lived on bis fees nud saved bis in? come of ?8() u year, while subscribing liberally to .religious societies nnd giv? ing many n pound to his needy parish? ioners. What n thrifty parson can do on n miserly small Income was shown by n I one time curate of Thulkeld, in Cum? berland, Alexander Ninighjey, whose entire Income vns ?8 l?s. a year. Mr. Nnughloy Head absolutely alone, slept on n bed of stinw and cooked his own scanty food. Imt ho never failed to present n rcsyertnl(,lo appearance to tho world, while not a word of complain? i ever passed bin lips, j A very eccentric parson was the Tlov. I Langten Freeman, nn old time rector of BiltoiT. In Warwickshire, who left the following i:t range Instructions for his funeral: "For four or five days after my .doeoiisd I would not be re? moved out of the place or bed I shall die on, and then 1 would be carried or Inld In the s-nne bed In the summer house In my garden, to be laid In the same bed there and to be wrapped in n strong double winding sheet, the door and windows to be locked nnd bolted, the building to be planted around with evergreen phi tits nnd fenced off with Iron or oak pules nnd pnlnted of a dark blue color, and for the due perform mice of this nnd for keeping the build? ing, etc., always in repair I give to my nephew, Thomas Freeman, the manor of Wlillton." etc. Shortly before Dr. Donne's death be gave instruct Ions for n large wooden urn to bo made and then summoned an artist to paint his portrait in this fashion: "Several charcoal tins Were j mnde In his study, then Donne came in with his winding sheet In his band. Ho wrapped himself up In the sheet, nnd thus appareled he placed himself on Hie urn, with his eyes shut: and the j sheet Just sufficiently pulled aside to I show hit pnle, emaciated face, which he turned toward the east, whence he expected the comjng of the Saviour." When the picture was finished be caused It to be placed by bis bedside, where it continued till his death. Queer Stole of Affairs.
