THE STATE OF TRADE.
Special kilograms to Bradstreet's show
that the movement of general merchan-
disc has declined in all directions as COM
pared with the previous week, as Is Gus

of the year. Jobbers and manufacturers
are very generally engaged in
stcck-tskiDg The results of the
year's business in staples lines st
the larger distributing centers, psrticu-
larry at Chicago, Kansas City, Omaha, St.
Joseph, St. Louis, ST. Paul, Minneapolis,
Louisville, New Orleans and Denver have
been very satisfactory, and the outlook
is for continued increases. Rains have
made country roads heavy in Southern
Texas and in Louisiana, and check trade.
In the north and west the severe cold
weather has stimulated some lines, while
not favoripg others.
Leading money markets continue gen.
orally firm, as the banks have not cared
to loan funds except to regular custom
ers. Lower rates are not expected soon
81 Chicago, where produce and live stock
dealers demands are very heavy. Mer-
camille collections are slow at Kansas
City and ST. Louis, but are fairly prompt
at Denver and Cleveland and ex-
ceptionally SO at Omaha and st.
Paul. Funds are easy at
Milwaukee, Detroit and Omahs, New
York Exchange is par at Galveston and
at premium at Kansas City, st. Louis,
st. Paul, Milwaukee and Chicago, but at
discount at New Orleans and St. Joseph.
The New York stock market is very dull,
but has shown considerable strength in
resisting the besrish influence caused by
the Reading strikes i Bradstreet's.

BOYS AS INVENTORS.

The Valve Motion to the Steam Engine
and tho Power Loom.
Some of the most important inventions
hsve been the work of mere boys. The
Invention Of the valve motion to the
steam engine was made by g boy. Watt
left the engine in very incomplete con-
dition, from the fact that he had no way
to open Or close the valves, except by
means of levers operated by hand. He
set up large engine at one OF the mines,
and boy was hired to work these valve
levers. Although this was not hard work,
vet il required his constant attention. As
he was working these levers he saw the
parts of the engine moved in the right
direction, and at the exact time he had to
open or close the valves.
He produced s long, streng cord, and
made one end fast to the proper part Of
he engine and the other to the valve
ever. Then he had the perfect satisfac-
ion of seeing the engine move Off with
perfect regularity of motion. A short
lime after the foreman came around and
aw the boy playing marbles at the door.
Looking st the engine he soon saw the III
+enuity of the boy, and also the ad-
antsge of so great an invention. Mr..
Watt then carried out the boys inventive
-enyus in practical form, and made the
team engine perfect automatic work
s1g machine.
The power loom is the invention OF q
.rmer boy, who had never seen or heard
4 such thing. He cut one out with a
snife, and after he had got it all dones ne
With great enthusiasm showed 1t to HE
ather. who at once kicked it to pieces,
swing that he would have no boy about
i'm who would spend his time on such
polish things. The boy WAS afterwaro
kpprenticed to blacksmith, and he soon
sound thst his new master was kind and
sook a lively interest in him. He made q
Dom Of what was left OF the one his
s,ther had broken up, which he showed
. his master. The blacksmith saw that
e had no common boy for an apprentice,
nd that the invention was very valu-
bile one.
He Immediately had loom constructed
.nder the supervision Of the boy. II
sorked to their perfect satisfaction, and
10 the blacksmith furnished the means to
manufacture the looms, the boy to re-
seive ne-half the profits. In year the
blacksmith wrote to the boys father tha,
e should visit him end bring with him
wealthy gentleman, who was the in
entor of the celebrated power loom
you may be able to judge the astonisn-
nent of the old man when his son was
presented SIS the inventor, who told him
she loom was the same as the model he
the father had kicked to pieces q veal
before.

his office, situated about mile from the
house. The long hours OF separation from
the PARTNER of his Joys ana sorrows were,
however, severe trial to his fortitude, and
he hit upon the expedlent OF connecting the
house and his place oI p1SHesS nn sS oy means Of
tenderest affection were exchanged between
tha loving couple every hour in the day. A
week later the work OIL the ONCE became
more absorbing, and our manufacturer felt
himself obliged TO put a stop 70 MS waste OF
time; besides he began to ma that Ludmil-
las caioleries were growing somewhat te-
dious and commonplace. But he would not
have his wife suspect this for worlds. His
inventive genius found way out OF the diff
ficulty. There was an ola servant OF the
firm. Herr Kobes by name, almost past work,
but retained to do odd jobs about the place.
He was a oueer old bachelor, with red nose
and romantic turn of mind for he was an
adept at whispering soft nothings in the ears
of young ladies, and fonaly imagined the
whole of the fair sex were In love with him.
Besides the tone of his voice had a striking
resemblance to that of his principal. Herr
Muller gave this man certain private instruc-
tions, and next morning Herr kobes was
duly installed at the telephone, ana engaged
in an amorous conversation with his invisi-
BILE partner, while his principal was busy
with his correspondence. Quite contrary to
Muller's expectations, Ludmilla appeared to
take Increasing delight in her husbands con-
versation and the apparatus was kept, con-
stantiy going. The manufacturer could now
attend to his own affairs without Interrupt
tion, while at the same time his wife had no
reason to complain OF his GOODNESS. This
state Of things was highly satisfactory. One
day, having business call to make in the
neighborhood of his dwelling house, he left
the office earlier than usual, quite oblivious
of old Kobes and the telephone, and after he
had gone his errand he went straight home,
as it was hardly worth while returning to
the office at that late hour. But what was
his astonishment on entering the room to
see his wife sitting on the sofa deeply abb
sorbed in the latest novel, and at the tele-
phone busy talking with the gentleman at
the offce-Babette, the old cook!
