There was pleasant variation in the usual
course of the Sunday evening Temperance meet
ings last sabbath, which proved very popular
To- judge from the crowded audience present
many person- being unable to obtain seats. The
meeting was under the auspices Of the Band Of
Hope, a childrons total abstinence organization,
and nearly one hundred Of their bright little faces
lighted up the front NJ the hall The little ones
wore the insignia Of their order, and bore their
banner with It's device, an anchor and the word.
Band Of Hope"
Mr. Elihn Snow, Assistant Superintendent u
the Band Of Hope presided, and after the singing
Of n hymn and prayer by Mr. Miller Principal
Of the Union School, said some good words of cV-
hortation and encouragement TO thc children.
The Rev Mr. Glazier followed lie alluded to
the pride and devotion with which a soldier re-
gardod his flag aud hoped the children would be
true TO theirs In the dark night-marchcs, during
the war, the soldiers used to touch elbows, and
thus never stmycd from the ranks. even when the
darkness was 50 intense that they could not see

dark hours Of temptation, Ia think Of this, and ~
cling to 10 their organization Tor In union was

Mr. Miller alluded to the method Of Increasing
physical strength by daily exercise Of the muscles.
and said the moral strength should be increased
In similar manner Every lie uttered weakens
the moral nature, and every truth uttered, in
spite Of temptation, strengthens it, The little
everyday triumphs were what developed the
child into heroic man or woman
The Rev. Mr. Wright said that the children
should have been called the Band Of Assurance

made their yctory certain instead Of lookcd-for

descent of to per cent under the violent demon
stration made against the leading stocks by those
bear operators anxious to beat down figures to

vance will be the wider. A good many short sales
had been made, and the effort to cover them rs
also to buy for long account, provoked steady
reaction to opening figures. Again was the market
raided with violence ard vigor the depression car
rying down prices below those previously reached
only to recover again. to give way third and fourth
time to the repeated onslaughts of the clique leaders
Of the market we may say that it has consisted OF
consecutive series of alternate advances and de-
clines behind all which, however, there was evil
denced a sincere desire to buy for long account on
the part of strong parties. The general market
closed weak and at the lowest prices touched. The
