GOOD WAGES FOR GOOD FITTING.
In large cities is a constant demand for good
Filters at salaries ranging from SIS to so
week. There are hundreds of young women
throughout the country who have the taste
and talent TO fill such positions; all they want
is an opportunity, and knowledge Of the laws
that govern the art of dress making. a want
of this knowledge precludes the possibility Of
reaching a high position as Cutter and Filter.
We will help YOU in this matter. We teach
YOU in detail the art Of cutting. That our me
fhod is not hard TO learn is clearly demonstra-

Mrs Virginia Ely wife of Mr. Warren Ely,
died at her home near Beulah on Tuesday
afternoon, July 3Oth,--aged 60 years.
In the death of Mrs. Ely her family, her
church, and large circle ofrelatives and friends
have suffered an irreparable loss-for she was
alike exemplary in her christian life, devoted
to husband and children, and kind and afiec-
tionate to all who knew her. Yet they sorrow
not as those who have no hope, for they know
that those who sleep in Jesus will God bring
with him. After many months ofseyere suf-
fering, borne with patience and fortitude, She
rests secure from pain and sorrow safe in the
arms of Jesus

DANvrGLE. VA. January GIVE have
had full breaks nearly all the week. The
offerings have been very common. and
composed for the most part OF dark,
green. and frosted stock. Bright stock
of an grades has been c0nspicuOusly
scarce. We cannot believe, as some are
inclined TO persuade us, that the break
of the past week has been an average Of
the crop. We do not think that as much
as 1000 pounds of good new wrap
pers have been offered on the
break during the entire week.
The general impression is, that
these common goods represent
such a large proportion Of the crop,
that Is is not probable that prices will
hold up to present quotations longer
than il will take 10 supply the immediate
wants Of the trade. We know Of none
who think there is any speculation in
them al present prices. The planters are
aware of this, and we think are getting
rid of their common stock as rapidly as
rapidly as they can before there
is any decline. \ good many
old wrappers have changed hands
again this week, mostly at private
sales OF the old wrappers offered on
the loose sale, very few come 10 the auc-
ton sales They are so eagerly sought
after, that they are nearly invariably
bought up privately. Some Of the ware
house men report that they have cleared
out their entire stocks Of old. There are
others that have stocks that they are not
Offering at all, but waiting till they will
+ be more in demand and higher
The dealers have been selling freely
too the past week. Our dealers, both
buyers and sellers, are SO quiet in their
operations, that we rather suspect that
there is more trading going on than they
are willing 10 let De known.
Our manufacturers report trade good
They all seem to be in the best of spirits

A Wheel 100 Tons In weight.

The largest wheel Of the kind ever
made in this country, and probably the
largest of any kind, is now in course Of
construction al the machine shop Of the
Dickson Manufacturing Company in
South Scranton. Pa. l. is what is called
a sapd-wheel. and is being made for the
Calumet and Hecla Copper Company,
of the Lake Superior region. The great
wheel will be fifty.three feet in diameter
and several feet wide, and the company
will get $4,000 for il. IL is being built
around twenty-inch hollow shaft Of
gun metal. and il will weigh between
1870 and 100 tons when completed
When the great wheel Is put in
place at the copper mines it will be made
to revolye slowly by means OF enormous
cors on the surface Of its circumference.
These cogs are being cast in segmenis
and will weigh many tons in the sggre-
gate. On each side Of the mammoth
wheel there will be fifty buckets, each
of which will hold about one hundred
gallons. and these buckets viii elevate
the washings and dump them into a
sluiceway. After the great wheel has
been built up and all the finishing
touches have been put on, ii viii be
taken apart and shipped. Every piece
will be numbered. so that there Will be
no trouble in putting the wheel togeth-
er. and il will take eight or ten cars 10
transport it.-Nsp York Telegram.

REVIEW.
New YORK, January 2S.--The market
to-day has felt the influence of continued
ASSERTION Of our leading stocks by Lon.
don. When our market has closed weak
london prices have come in strong the
next morning, and to-day was no eXcep-
ton. our opening prices were generally
higher than Saturdays close, but there
seemed TO De enough bearish influences
prevailing here 10 cause a general sag
ging of in prices. .Atchison and Mis-
souri, Pacific became very weak, and kept
the general market down until well into
the p. VI. A considerable short interest.
however had been worked into the
market during the forenoon, and later.
when news came from Chicago Of an
agreement by roads there on the Terri
tory question this short interest fastened
to cover. but found few stocks Offering.
hence the rally was sharp and considera-
bic for such limited trading. Close was
very strong. Market has broadened Just
p little to-day The discrimination of
investors in buying good things like
Pullman, Reading, generals, Delaware
and Hudson and others, and advancing
prices sharply has had a beneficial effect
on speculation a better and more
hopeful feeling is slowly maturing.
