THE WEEKS BUSINESS
IN RAILROAD BUILDING, COAL
MINING, IAOY
Making, Lumber, Dry Goods, Wool
and Some Minor Channels
Has Been Good.
lsrrsIAL OoRnrsroSDrsCr OF THE ArrEAL.l

lsFIeiAL CORRESPONDENTS OF THE APPRAL.l
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, December A.
The weeks business in railroad build
ing, coal mining, iron making, lumber,
dry goods, wool, and in come minor
cham els, has been fully up to trade
expectation The rush Of orders con-
tinuee. Mills, shops and f,c.ories are
well sold up. Prices are firm for all
products. Stocks cannot accumulate
under existing trade conditions. There
is q general apprehension that prices
will advance, aud hence or iers snd
inquiries are on the increase. Store
keepers throughout the Western and
Southern States are dist ibutiDg goods
quite literally. Railroad builders have
built 5000 miles of main track aud
20C0 miles Of 81 ksck this year and
will complete at l5ast $1,000 miles Of
main and side track nj xt year. All
parties are watching for advance in
iron and steel in British markets and
then prices will move up here.
BUILDING.
Much activity has subsidized as to
new work but the louise builders are
all busy. Material is used up. Lum.
Der Is not over plenty but from the
way saw and planning mills are going
up lumber and sasr, doors, blinds,
laths and shingles will be cheap and
plenty next year.
Business Is booming in boots and
shoes in both Eastern and Western
markets. half million dollars is to
be expended on stock yards, to cover
400 acres, at ut. Joseph, Mo. The
drive Of cattle from Tex 8 will be 225,-
900 this season. m .tEe ri
The importers Of goods Of almost all
kinds are in nigh glee over the pros
poets Of heavy orders going abroad
this winter, and British man ufacturers
are sending agents to solicit business
on this side.
The dry goods, carpet, hosiery and
cloth manufacturers are working full
time to meet customers demands.
Wool is high. Cotton is quiet. Pc
troleum is active. Agricultural pro-
ducts are abundant and cheap, and a
speculative turn is almost an impossi-
bility.
The bituminous operators met in
Philadelphia on Wednesday and
agreed to advance prices % cents a
ton. The anthracite companies will
sdvance 10 cents on lump.
The jobbers in New York and Phil
adelphia are fully prepared for the
heaviest winter demand for textile
goods ever met with. New England
mills will not shut down, except few
days. Trade prospects are most en-
couraging. Manufacturers are &C.
cumulating all the raw material they
possibly can. The money markets
are well supplied. Collections are easy.
Commercial failures continue at near
ly last years rate, but the percentage
is much less considering the rapid in
creEse OF firms. The distribution of
all kinds OF manufactured goods for
the comiog holidays hes far exceeded
any previous years business, and the
margin OF retailers profits is little
better.

They play TO win applause in COM
plexion, teeth, eyes, manners, speech,
coquetry, cheerfulness and general
lovableness. That's our game before
we are married, and il 1t isn't kept mp
toward husbands after marriage it l.
because wives don't know enough. |
am told that ceI tain fl shy garments,
that are never eeen In good society
excep! in store Window, are worn by
certain women for the benefit OF the
other sex-wrappera, secques and
hosiery and all that. Bat when l
write about ladies', whether they are
poor or ca, and say, once for all, we
do not dress for men, We do not care
what men think OF our clothes, we
know that men know no more about
women's gowns than pigs know of
Munkacsy's pointing. There, now, Is
that fat and plain enou2h? LIST me
give you some more wisdom in nut
shell couciseness. Among the men
the handles dress to attract female at.
tention, to "knoek out the women"
as my cousin says; but the dudes
dress to eclipse each other. Now,
that latter way, the dudes way, is the
way women dress--to eclipse one
another.
was saying all this to gentleman
who thought he had the better OF me
by asserting that women are forever
looking In mirrors, and primpiDR and
shaking out this part and smoothing
down the other, and tittivating their
hair, and ali the rest. That Is solemn
truth. The women do no end OF that
sort Of thing. Bot 1t is not from van
ity. Did you ever see. . lady whose
hair has come down walking along the
street with tail Of 1t down the back ?
Did you ever see lady with her
ekirt or hustle showing behind
through a disarrangement OF her over
skirt Did you ever see lady with
her hat tipped over almost on one
carr Well, 1t Is to prevent such hui
initiating things as that that women
always glance at o glass, and give
shake here and q touch there, aud
smoothing somewhere else. A woman
dressed Is mass of devices that are
liable to get out Of pace, and ara
only held in place by pins
and clasps, hairpins straps End
laces. Her hair may come down,
her hat get out Of place, her stockings
may climb down on her shoes, her
overskirt may perch on her hip or
hustle, her skirts may loosen and drop
beneath the dress. Is 1t any wonder
she looks at her reflection whenever
she can2 And yet, "kind gentlemen"
as the old players used to say, II 10
none the less a fact that when Broad
way looking glass dealer set boy to
count the number Of persons who
looked at themselves in the glass he
kept out on the sidewalk 1t was found
that Of a given number OF women and
men twice as many men as women
stopped to look at themselves in the
mirror. CLARA BELLE.

are human. But women--that is,
good and respectable women don't
dress for mems eyes. They don't
think OF the effect OF their gowne on
the other sex. New, II you didn't
know that, or II you think l am
stretching little for argument, let me

Of woman In dress Ia due to rivalry
with her own sex, Each woman wants
to look better than, or at least as well
as, each other woman. Let me put II

we could not tell you whether there

effect OF our new gown and bonnet on
the envious eyes Of other women. No,
nc, no; we are above that, also. oh,
how we are misunderstood. We look
simply and solely 10 see whether any
other woman is better dressed than
We are and what every other woman
has on. Upon my word ssan expert we
never think Of anything else. We do all
the thinking 4 ourselves before we get
there, st home in the maids hands,
before the glass, and for week or

planning not to be beaten by other
women.
On this worlds stage women play to
women in the matter Of dress.

THE power of the press amounts to
something in the United States. Accord
ing to Rowcll's American newspaper di-
rcctory for the current year there arc A.
100 newspapers and periodicals of all
classes published at the present time, Of
which number 1916 are daily journals.
The religious bodies have 700 newspapers
The prohibitionists 1870, the liquor dealers
8, and the women suffragists Z. There are
scientific, medical, legal and mechanical
journals, while almost every speciality,
even down to dancing, has its representa-
tive in the journalistic field. About 600
publications are printed in German and
AZ in French. There are q few journals
printed in the Swedish, Polish, Finnish,
Bohemian and Welsh tongues, besides
one each in Gaelic, Hebrew, Chinese and
Cherokee. The Welsh have the most
jaw-breaking names, and of this class is
one Ohio publication entitled the
"Yhdyswalta in Sanomat." The net gain
of the year in journals has been 666, Of
which 33 are daily publications. The
figures prove that Americans are essen

From an editorial in that able demo-
cratic newspaper, the New York Sun,
we reproduce the following:
Every wise and warm-hcarted citizen
of the republic will say that the Presi-
dents second entry into the Executive
abode is vastly more indicative of sound
judgment and suspicious of happiness
than was the first.
Unfortunately there is another side to
the picture, which is as dark as this is
cheerful. On the fourth of March, 1885,
Mr.. Cleveland had no Cabinet. lie
entered his four-years home entirely by
himself, carrying into it no burden Of Of
fetal scandal. The public road he was
about to set out upon was broader than
any he had ever tried before, but he had
a perfectly fair start. Now he comes
back identified with one OF the most dis
graceful Government scandals that has
ever shown its head in Washington.
Since the beginning of his first official
year q band Of worthless spectators, hav.
ing fastened their grip upon the gentle
man whom he appointed to preside over
the Department of Justice, have develop
ed a long-hatched plot to use the Execu-
tive to promote their speculation, and
have 50 wrapped their influence around
the Administration that the Executive
stands in court to-day, at their instiga
ton and for their benefit, in an attemp'
to break down what q long and unbroker
line of legal investigations and decision
shows to be the truth. This is a scanda
of appalling magnitude, and neither b.
contemplating the Presidents honesty o
purpose, nor by imputing a blind o
childish simplicity to the Attorney-G G.
eral, nor by cloaking the capture of tn
Executive with the laudable purpose @
reducing the rental Of telephones, a
; be made any smaller. And the danger
that 1t will be allowed to end It's misers
, BILE existence, which 1t is bound TO d
5 sooner or later, under the sheltcring Pre-
= lection Of the President, instead of bein
throttled and stamped ON and fired out.
: Let us hope, though, that the ne
r state into which President Clevclar
has entered may make his eye for Il
past so discriminating that he will kno
an unclean thing when he sees 1t al

THE mar who thinks there is no harm
to beat the government or q corporation
lives pretty much all over this country.
He has just turned up in Maine. He had
a small museum of geological curiosities,
among them a tame bear. The other day
the bear sickened and was just about to
die when the man got down his gun and
shot him. Then he cut off the bears ears
and nose and collected the five dollars Of
bounty which the State pays for every
bear killed in Maine. But there is a man
in Pennsylvania who is away ahead of
the Maine man. He lives In Bradford
county, and he has O hen sitting on a lot
Of hawks eggs. He intends to hatch out
