How the Sweet By and By Was Written.

N~ ~ w s"S 'AAssN1'
There is many story that the popu-
lar hymn, THE Sweet By and By" was
the work of two men while drunk.
Joseph r, Webster, who composed the
music, died several years ago. DR.. S.
Bennett, author of the verses, lives at
Richmond, III. He says the charge of
intoxication is untrue, though Webster
was free drinker. The two wrote n
hymn book in 1874, and "The Sweet By
and By" was one of the pieces jointly
produced for it. The suggestion came
from chance remark by Webster, who
was habitually respondent, that al
would be well "by and by" Bennett
at once made the rhymes, and Webster
brought the music out of fiddle, which
was his customary aid in composition.
The hymn book had its day, and is for
gotten; but this one tune is put into
every new publication of the kind, and
has sale of about 10000 copies a year
in sheet form. DR.. Bennett says that
he and Webster were not orthodox
Christians when the hymn was written,
and that he is now even less believer.

CLOSING PRICES or PaILADenpa1i STOCKS

FRIDAY. July s-P NJ.
With n more active movement in stocks to-day
than on any preceding day this week. there was de-
veioped weak and unsettled tone. Early figures
for the general list steady and for two or three
stocks that favored by special care
the early prices showed some improvements
Western Union and Northwest were notably
strong in the carly dealings, and later, after the
first Declines ST. Paul came TO the front with an adj
vance from 127l4 to 1888 Western Union.
which had declined from 927s TO 92L. sold
up 10 93is, and there was moro or hess of
an improvement through the whole market. But
the steady supply of stock was too great for
the capacity of promscuous buyers. and prices
yielded slowly until the lowest figures were
made just before the close The rally of Il a 81 per
cent that occurred during the last five minutes may
safely be ascribed to the purchasers of shortsv
who were anxious 10 accept the profits which the
ruling prices afforded. The noteworthy feature of
the days operations the fact that the large
buyers of Tuesday and Wednesday were the princi-
pal sellers to-day. The change in the directory Of
the Metropolitan Railway made that stock partic-
