There was renewed dejiression in the stock
market to-day, and the early dealings were
attended with considerable excitement. Den
ver mid Rio Grande was again the feature.
The unfavorable rumors of yesterday were in
duslriously circulated with marked effect.
As on yesterday, however, nothing of a defi
nite character regarding t lie stock was known.
The shares ojieneil at 24 :, 4 , an advance of 's
per cent. and dropped to 21',

also exhibited special weakness, the former
breaking from <ls', lo 63!-, and the latter from

was less important, being only 1 _.(-(/1 pereent.

Knight was announced, Imt this scarcely
pn-iueed a ripple of excitement, as the
house has been considered weak. Be

change in the temper ->f speculation, and the
early weaknc— gave place to buoyancy.

movement set in, under which process prices
rose ', to I', per cent. In the final sales

A THOUSAND WIVES.
The Bad Boy’s Ideas Regarding the
Wisdom of Solomon.
Milwaukee. Sun.
“Sit down on the ice box,” said the boy
to the grocery man. “IVhat you need i's
rest. You are overworked. Your alleged
brain is equal to wilted lettuce, and it
can devise ways and means to hide rot
ten peaches under good ones, so as to sell
them to blind orphans, but when it comes
to grasping great questions your small
brain cannot comprehend them. Your
brain may go up sideways to a great ques
tion. and rub against it, but it cannot
surround it and grasp it. That's where
you are deformed. Now, it is different
with me. I can raise brain to sell to you
grocery men. Listen! This Solomon is
credited with being the wisest man, and
yet history says he had a thousand wives.
Just think of'it! You have got one wife
and pa has got one, aud all the neighbors
have one. if they have had any kind of
luck. Does hot one wife make
you pay attention? Wouldn’t two
wives break you up? Wouldn’t three
cause, vou to see stars? How
would ten strike you ? Why, man alive,
you do not grasp the magnitude of the
statement that Solomon had a thousand
wives. A thousand wives, standing side
by side, would reach about four blocks.
Marching by fours it would take them
twenty minutes to pass a given point. The
largest summer resort hotel only holds
five hundred people, so Sol would haY’e
had to hire two hotels if he took his wives
out for a day in the country. If you
would stop and think once in a while you
would know more.”
The grocery man’s eyes began to stick
out as the bad boy continued, as though
the statistics had never been brought to
his attention before, but he was bound to
stand by his old friend Solomon, and he
said: “Well, Solomon’s wives must have
leen different from our wives of the pre
sent day.”
“Not much,” said the boy, as he see he
was paralyzing the grocery man. “Women
have been about the same' ever since Eve.
She got mashed on the old original dude,
and it stands to reason that Solomon’s
wives were no better than the mother of
the human race. Statistics show that one
woman, out of every ten is red headed.
That would give Solomon an even hun
dred red-headed wives. Just that hun
dred red-headed wives would be enough
to make an ordinary man think
that there was a land that is fairer than
this. Then there would be, out
of the other nine hundred, about three
hundred blondes, and the other six hun
dred would be brunettes, and maybe he
had a few albinos and bearded womfen
and fat women and dwarfs. Now, those
thousand women had appetites, desires
for dress and style, the same as other wo
men. Imagine Solomon saying to them,
I‘Giris, let’s all go down to the ice cream
saloon and have a dish of ice cream.” Can
you. with your brain muddled with cod
fish and new potatoes, realize the scene
that would follow? Suppose, after Solo
mon’s broom brigade had got seated in
the ice-creamery, one of the red-head
ed wives should catch Solomon
w inking at a strange girl at another ta
ble. You may think Solomon did not
know enough to wink, or that he was not
that kind of a flirt, but he must have been
or he could never have succeeded in mar
rying a thousand wives, in a sparsely
settled country. No, sir. it looks to me
as though Solomon in all his glory, was
an old masher, and from w hat 1 have
seen of men being bossed around with
one wife. I don't envy Solomon his thou
sand. Why, just imagine that gang of
wives going and ordering fall bonnets.
Solomon would have to be a King,
or a Vanderbilt to stand it.
Ma wears $5 silk stockings, and
pa kicks awfully when the bill conies
in. Imagine Solomon putting up fora
few thousand pair of silk stockings. I
am glad you will sit down and reason
with me in a rational way about some of
these Bible stories that take my breath
away. The minister stands me oft' when
I try to talk with him about such things,
and tells me to study the parable of the
Prodigal Son, and the deacons tell me
to go and soak my head. There
is darn little encouragement for a
boy to try and figure out things.
How would you like to have a thousand
red-headed wives coming into the store
this minute and tell you they wanted you
to send carriages around to the house at
ft o’clock, so they could go for a drive?
Or how would you like to have a hired
girl come rushing in and tell you to send
up six hundred doctors, because six hun
dred of your wives- had been taken with
cholera morbus? Or”
“O, don’t mention it,” said the grocery
man w ith a shudder. “I wouldn’t take
Solomon’s place and be the natural pro
tector of a thousand wives if anvbody
wolud give me the earth. Think of get
ting up in a cold winter morning and
building a thousand tires! Think of tw o
thousand pair of hands in a fellow’s hair!
Boy, you have shown me that Soloftion
needed a guardian over him. He didn’t
have sense.”
es,” says the boy; “and think of two
thousand feet, each one as cold as a brick
of chocolate ice cream. A man would
want a backus big as the fence to a fail
ground. But 1 don't want to harrow up
yourfeelings. I must go and put some arni
ca on pa. He lias gone home,and says he has
been to a summer resort on a vacation,
and he is all covered with blotches. He
says it is mosquito bites, but ma thinks
he lias been shot full of bird-shot by some
watermelon farmer. Ma hasn’t got any
sympathy for pa because he didn’t take
her along.”
The Pony Express—A 4450,000 Bet.
A writer in the Chicago Tunes recalls
the old days when the “pony express”
carried the mails from the Missouri river
to the Pacific. They had been carried by
steamer via Panama until 18(51, when the
firm of Russell & Meyers undertook to
make better time over the plains. On
April ft the ponies were started from each
end of the line. The New Y’ork Steamer
Company were confident, too, but not in
the same way. So a bet was made. It
was a pretty good sized bet, being for
.s.■>o,ooo a side.
The race began and was watched with
breathless interest. At each station there
I was another horse saddled and rider ready
spurred. The mail bag was tossed from
one to the other, and on sped like the
; wind the fresh horse and rider. One boy
on the first trip was lost in a canon o'f
snow. For four precious hours lie wan
dered. Then he started on with desperate
vigor. Another was lost in the Platte:
the horse he rode was drowned, but the
rider swam out with his mail and footed
it to the next station. Here his
relief was in waiting, and the flight
was taken up again. Would the rider
and the horse with their daring and en
ergy win? Ten days have gone, aud the
ponies have kept up to the mark. Fif
teen. At 4 o’clock the Westward-bound
train must be in Sacramento. The noon
lias passed, aud tlie minutes are being
counted. Half-past three. Will the brave
rider be on hand? As yet there is no
sign. With only thirty minutes to spare
Russell wants to double his bet. Then
| a cloud of dust is seen. It grows to
a speck. The rider waves his hat.
The people shout. The pony express
has crossed the great American desert.
Victory! There is still twenty minutes’
i grace. This speed was always kept up,
just as if there were $50,000 at stake daily.
It was the same for months. Then the
complications of the war turned every
thing upside down. The riders went to
battle, the stations were abandoned, con
tracts went to other hands, and grass
grew over the trail. Rut soon the stage
used it, and the telegraph line was not
far behind, while those who have rushed
across the plains by steam know what
followed these innovations.
The riders of the pony express were all
young wiry fellows, whose very love of
excitement and danger had brought them
to the frontier. In this occupation they
had t'.eir till. The individual aMventure's
would fill a volume. The life, with the
exposure and hardship, was a wearing
one. What has become of the riders now
in question? Many of them have followed
the frontier, and will stand on its fore
till they die. Many have died already.
One, named Murphy, recently died In
Salt Lake. From the stripling of
the ’6os he came to weigh 220
pounds. He made quite a reputation as a
desperate character. As one who knew
him said, “He got too big to ride a pony,
but had a good build for holding up
stages.” Oneof the most daring of the
crowd rode into >alt Lake from 80 miles
this side, through the wildest part of the
route. It was a hard task, but the lad
was equal to it, doing the work of about
four men. He afterward joined the Con
federate army, and died on a Southern
battle field.
Vital Questions!!
Ask the most eminent physician
Of any school, what is the best thing in
the world for quieting and allaying all
irritation of the nerves and curing all
forms of nervous complaints, giving natu
ral, childlike, refreshing sleep always?
And they will tell you unhesitatingly
“Some form of Hops ?”
CHAPTER I.
Ask any or all of the most eminent phy
sicians:
“YVhat is the best and only remedy that
can be relied on to cure all diseases of the
kidneys and urinary organs; such as
Bright’s disease, diabetes, retention or
inability to retain urine, and all the dis
eases and ailments peculiar to women”—
“And they will tell you explicitly and
emphatically ’Buchu.’ ”
Ask the same physicians
“What is the most reliable and surest
cure for all liver diseases or dyspepsia,
constipation, indigestion, biliousness,
malarial fever, ague, etc.?” and they will
tell you:
“Mandrake! or Dandelion!”
Hence, when these remedies are com
bined with others equally valuable
And compounded into Hop Bitters,
