INDIANAPOLIS MARKETS.
A Week I'm Which Trade Has Been Quiet
and Fluctuattons in Values Few.

N Weeh HI III AThuo mas fSeen Ou1et
and Fluctuations in Values Few.
INDIANAPOLIS. Aug. 15.-TraCe in the
week closing to-day was not disappointing,
for a light business had been anticipated.
The most striking feature about the sltua-
ton is the steadiness in prices, and the
problem with the merchants, both whole
sale and retail. is whether such firm prices
when business is slow does not mean
higher prices when business becomes more
active. In no line of dry goods OF groceries
is there any indication of a weakening In
prices. The -four. the provision and pro-
duce markets. fruits and vegetables ex-
cepted, all nave a hardening tendency.
Eggs. poultry and butter are firm in tone,
the demand taking all receipts readily. un-
less of inferior quality. Naturally with so
large q supply of fruits and vegetables
weak prices prevail, but no lower than
usual when harvests are bountiful. The
seed market is more active at unchanged
prices.
GRAIN.
There is more activity in the local grain
market than has characterized il in August
for SOME years. Dealers and those working
on commissions make no great ventures,
but do something from day to day. and re-
suits of late have been very satisfactory.

the Western operators, as well as London.
were buyers of their favorites. the former
being specially courageous in view of the
very hattering crop conditions. which are
now receiving their due attention from all
classes of operators. The market opened
with small fractional gains over last night
figures, extending to % PEI cent, and while
there was some hesitation on selling of some
Short stocks in Union Pacific. the tone
was soon recovered and an upward move
ment was inaugurated, which, with but
slight interruption, lasted throughout the
session. Missouri Pacific early took the
lead in the advance. but later the grangers
and Union Pacific came to the front again
and especially sharp gains were made In
the last half hour. b bank statement
when issued showed only slight loss in re-
serves and cash held, while deposits were
increased materially. The effect of the
demands to move the crops were
not so apparent as expected and there
was q rush to buy on the strength of the
statement, which moved up all the leaders
with more animation and Union Pacific
specially scored q handsome gain. The mp
ward movement also extended to a large
number of specialties and the market broad

Our Silent Friend,

There is an ever.ready giver tc
the treasury of the Infrmary
who calls herself onr "Silent
Friend" Expressions of graft
tude can not be out of place in
these columns. One of her late
kindnesses was to lend the Board
Of Managers, in an H5tfr of need,
the sum of twelve hundred and
seventy-tive dollars for one year,
without interest. Is not the
grace OF charity beautiful in its
workings? The soul of our "Si-
lent Friend" is filled with this
grace. What can we wish for
her at this happy Christmas tide?
AS her life wanes, and the illu-
sorry pleasures of the world van
lsh, may she find comfort in the
reflection that her good deeds
have brought solace to many a
weary head and heart, and may
her reward be the renewing in
heaven of the broken links of
love on earth. NJ

longings for excitements, by ire
sistible desires to touch life in
manifold ways. Ifyou, mothers,
rear your sons so that your homes
are associated with the repression
of natural instincts, you will be
sure to throw them in the society
that in a measure can supply the
need of their hearts. They go to
the public house at first, for the
animated and hilarious compan-
ionship they find there, which
they find does so much to repress
the disturbing restlessness in their
breasts. See to it, then, that their
homes are complete with public
places in their attractiveness.
Open your blinds by day and
light the bright fires by night.
Illumine your rooms. Hang pic
lures on the wall. Put books
and newspapers upon your tables.
Have music an d entertaining
games. Danish demons Of dull
ness and apathy that have so long
ruled in your household, and
bring in mirth and good cheer.
Invent occupations for your sons.
Stimulate their ambition in wor-
thy directions. While you make
home their delight, fill them with
higher purposes than mere plea
sure. Whether they shall pass
happy boyhood and enter upon
manhood with refined tastes and
noble ambitious, depends upon
you.
