South Elds. 15; Monchsster. 1 n. THE WEEK IX TRADE. The resumption of the briefly Depended g-old Importation! has been probably the i most significant financial development of the week.

The London money market. In aplte of temporary flurries, due to rumors of Turkish complications, has, on account of the treat abundance of money, remained "comparatively easy, the wily hardening: In-fiueoce being- the fear that the gold move- ment from that center to this country may still be only In Its primary stage. Hence, with nloney in New York quoted 5J per or fully 2 per cent above the ruling- 'London rate, there Is every Inducement for a flow of the metal to this side. The engagements during the past four days have aggregated swelling the total In this country, or on the road, since August 8 to nearly 000,000. iJomestlc money rates have shown no marked change, but the tendency Is In the direction of greater ease.

The call rate at New York rose for an hour or two during the early part of the week to 10012 per but this was due mainly 1 to a speculative flurry, and the rate fell I abruptly the next day. There has been some calling of loans both at New York and in the interior In anticipation of the comptroller's call to the national banks for a statement, but now that the call has been received It Is generally thought there will be a relaxation In this quarter. There were In addition other disturbing factors, some of which, mentioned by an eastern exchange, were "shifting ot bal ances In connection with city tax pay ments, guarding of reserves In view of the expected statements to the comptroller of the currency, and, by no means least, the general Instinct of precaution as elec lion day draws near." But combined with all these factors, and In part connected with them, there has been a very heavy currency remittance from New York, chiefly to the west and south. For the week the New York banks have shipped direct a net amount of with an additional total shipped through the sub-treasury. This represents a total outgo this week, on domestic account, of 1 1,8.8, L'n, and compares with similar outgo of a week ago, and of In the week ending September 28.

It Is regarded In Wall street as not at all Improbable that these heavy shipments of Interior currency will continue. They are 'entirely normal for this period of the year, and the exceptionally heavy wheat exports, renewed as fast as freight accommodations can be had, mark out this year as one of the pewods when Mln-produclng west mayiokltlmately draw upaewkJBnK New York's drafts upon In other words, the heavy currercy shipments west offset today, as they did a month ago, the still heavier gold Importations from the foreign markets. How great these gold Importations may be It Is impossoble to conjecture. But if the estimated shortage of 100,000,000 bushels in the wheat crops of the other wheat countries Is verified, and MsJ. McKlnley Is elected, the Inflow will almost undoubtedly be extensive.

The commercial agencies In their weekly reviews are more hopeful (n tone than usual of late. Dun's says: "Distinctly better conditions Jiave appeared of late and are reflected, in somewhat larger employment of labor. In larger transactions, and hi continued buying of materials for manufacture, A great part of the chans is due to those resistless, laws of supply and demand, which take wheat where It Is wanted and gold where It Is wanted, India is waiting for cargoes of wheat on the way from Pacific coast states, Just as Australia and South Africa were not so long ago. The surplus usually available from India disappears, and the surplus from Russia' and European countries Is reduced, according to late estimates, bushels. Happily, this country has a supply which ofllcial accounts hove not correctly measured, if actual movements do not greatly minlead." Bradstrect's says: "Colder weather, continued heavy receipts of cotion and "wheat, and other influences stimulated demand for staple goods at various points, but the volume of trade remains moderate, without material change from a week ago.

The tendency at some centers is to a smaller volume of trade, but the general One of Those Recently Restored ed to a Joyful, contented state of body and mind by this eama great nerve and brain restoratlve. Paine's celery compound Is the greatest achievement In modern medicine. It banishes weakness and pain as surely as its famous contemporary, the electric light, dispels darkness. Paine's celery compound frees the body of vicious humors that cause kidney and liver complaints. Only a great remedy based on a deep knowledge of these diseases could do the work that Paine's celery compound is now doing.

Better nutrition for the nerves, an awakened appetite, purified blood and complete assimilation these follow the conscientious use of Paine's celery compound as surely as day follows night. If you are alarmed by a throbbing: of the hesrt, an irritable stomach, or general debility, be fair with yourself, use the best means there is, examine what Paine's celery compound Is doing. It has cured an astonishing number of men and women of Brlght's (liseaee, rheumatism, neuralgia, heart failure and liver trouble. No sufferer can pass lightly over the remarkable record that Paine celery compound has to show to every sick and ailing person. Among the thousands of testimonials received this year Is one recently sent by Congressman John C.

Bell, of Colorado, who says he has used three bottles of this best of all remedies for dyspepsia and rheumatism with the most satisfactory results. Among the testimonials received since January there have been no less than 16 from congressmen from different states.

Gladness Comes With a better understanding of tha transient nature of the manv rjhvs- ical ills, which vanish before proper efforts irentle efforts pleasant efforts rightly directed. There is comfort in the knowledge, that so many forms of sickness are not tine. to any actual disease, but simply to a constipated condi tion of the system, which the pleasant family laxative, Syrup of Fig-8. promptly removes. That is why it is the only remedy with millions of families, and is everywhere esteemed so highly by all who value good health.

Its beneficial effects are doe to the fact, that it is the one remedy which promotes internal cleanliness without debilitating1 the orirans on which it acts. It is therefore nil important, in order to get it beneficial effects, to note when you pur chase, that you have the genuine article, which is manufactured by the Cali fornia iff Syrup to. only ana sold by all reputable druggists.

Paul Dispatch. William Levy of Eau Claire, who recently had an ray examination of his skull made by Prof. Fred S. Jones at the physical laboratory of the Minnesota Stale university, had an experience in consequence not generally supposed to accompany that process. Levy was shot In the head about 10 years ago by an escaping bank defaulter.

The bullet has been somewhere In his head ever slntw, and In July he made ud his mind to have It located. Accordingly ne. camo un ana sat trom a ciock in the morning till 10 at night for a Roentgen ray picture of bis head. The bullet had passed into his skull Just above the kit ear, going towara tne oack oi tne head. After taking a couple of negatives they finally found about where the bullet was located.

Hie doctors wrapped his head up in wires, which were definitely located. A picture was takeiv through the skull from the front toward the back of the head, the tube from which the rays radiated being for this purpose placed inside the mouth. The bullet thus secured show' ed the bullet very distinctly to be lying at the Junction of two of the wires which crossed ngnt under the occipital none. It indicated also that the bullet had struck the back of the skull and turned forward again, for the point of the bullet, being: further from the olate. showed dim mer on the negative.

These exposures had taken vu nearly the whole day, but the patient felt no bad effects at the time. Hi had been warned that the experiment mignt cause tne loss or nis nair but that did not deter him from taking the risk. A very strong current, about volts, had been passed through the tube In making the Tho next day Mr. Levy began to notice a peculiar enect on the skin wherever it had been most exposed to the rays, and me nair on tne r.knt side ot tne head which had been near tha wire, began to fall out. In a few days the right side uf his head was perfectly baJd, his right ear had swollen to twice its natural size, and presented the same appearance as if very nadiy rrozen.

sores were vismie on his head, his mouth and throat were blistered so that he could not eat solid food for three weeks, and his lips were cracnea ana weeding, in fact the long exposure of the rays, while giving him no pain at the time, seemed to have produced very similar effects to a very severe purn. Mr. Levy has recovered from the ef fects of his burns, but he still has half a bald head. He is a plucky man, about 30 years of age, and Intends to have the In vestigations carried further and the bul let removed. Ha has already written to Prof.

From the New Orleans Picayune. The cannon which fired the last shot In the last battle that took place during the civil war is worth knowing sogieihing about. Hence, the sale of the eight-inch columblad, "Lady Sloconib," which is ad vertised to take place in Mobile this month, arouses the interest of the old sol diers' sons, for the reason that It Is gen erally supposed to be the gun which fired the last siiots of the war, or that nreu so many deadly volleys in the lust battle that took place during the civil war. The last engagement, said an old sol dier yesterday, took place at Spanish Fort. This engagement, of course, was not a regular baitle, and Is not perhaps record-i'U history as such, but It wus nevertheless a conflict fierce, and lire Hew that day as never before.

Gen. Forrest had sent to Spanish Fort during the last etuys of tha war a sufllclent force of men to guard the place, and among the number was the fifth battalion of the Washington artillery, Capt. Cuthbert Sloconib in command. The Lady S.ocomb was brought there, and there fired its last snots when Wilsons raiders stormed the place and took it. There the Lady Slo- eaniD, mr a rew nours Delore the old tort was surrendered, belched forth fire and scattered death like an Intelligent being, but to no avail, as the enemy numbered several times as much as tha garrison.

After the surrender of the fort some ot the members of Capt. Slocomb's command one night rolled the Lady Slocomb off the earihen embankment into a lagoon, or old slush-hole, and burled it, giving as their reason they did not want the gur. to fail Into the bunds of the enemy, it was afterward dug up and carried to Mobile, whore it was purchased by Henry Hadger, a prominent confederate of that place, wro had served through the war and knew of the excellence the Lady Slocomb. Tha gun was named after the wife of Capt. cuthbert Sloconib, who went out in lKtii in charge of the fifth battalion of the Washington artillery- The gun at the battle of Shiloll snat out lis first smnke and spread its first desolation In the ranks ttle struggles of the army of the Tenne.ssea I went, uno everywhere It gained well- deserved renown.

Druggist, Market street, PUUbaig. ttuius is There Is Just now no lack of news from the western states. Publlo opinion In Colorado and Iowa Is as promptly and accurately heard of as from any New England state. From all over the west come reports that Paine's celery compound occupies practi cally a clear field In the cure of diseases arising from a tired or otherwise Impaired nervous system. No other remedy was ever used by so many men of sound and reliable Judgment.

No remedy but Paine celery compound has ever been recommended by so con spicuously fair-minded a body of men and women.
