FINE CROP PROSPECTS.

The C ountry Generally Feels Their In
fluence and Trade Is Better.
R. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly review OF trade
says:
Business clearly grows somewhat more
active, though midsummer dullness is still
the rule At Eastern cities there is noticed
more demand for manufactured goods with
larger call for materials. At the West
trade is enlivened by the large yield of
winter wheat already harvested and by
the bright outlook for other crops At the
South, however, though the crop advices
are also favorable no improvement ap-
pears in business, which is duller than
usual even for the season and at some
points is pronounced quite unsatisfactory.
Imports at New York have sharply de-
clined since July, amounting to about
81, 300, 600, or Is per cent. less than for the
same weeks last year. On the other hand
exports of domestic products at this point
show an increase thus far in this month Of
So, 323, 900, or nearly 80 per cent. in compari-
son with the same weeks last year. The
money markets are generally in fair shape,
and collections fair for the season. The
business failures occurring throughout the
country during the last seven days number
274, as compared with total of 247 last
week. For the corresponding week of last
year the figures were 297.

coinage of silver, was accepted. The minor
ity report differed only in these particulars.

DUG HIS OWN GRAVE.
A California Miners Strange Death in a
Canyo~ Near the Snow Line.

Canyo~ Near the Snow Line.
The Sheriff of Fresno County, Cali
fornia, started into the mountains in
quest of two murderers. In a lonely
canyon, the approach to which was al
most inaccessible, he found a complete
set of miners tools, and upon further
search the body of man was found in
an open grave, which was cut into the
solid granite rock. Beside the grave
was note written in lead pencil, which
read: "My name is Dave Meneer; /
have lived like devil but will die like
a man. Nov. 20" The body was COW
cred with transparent ice eighteen
inches deep, which filed the grave. 1t
is supposed thEt she miner, crazed by
loneliness and disappointment, had dug
the grave, laid himself in it, and draw
ing across his body slab of granite,
which still rested there, was drowned
by the water which trickled into the ex-
cavation. The body was well preserved
by the ice around it, which had not

WEST SUPERIOR wEPT.
Five Killed and Many Others Injured by
CycI0ne.

Five Killed and Many Others Injured by a
Cyclone.
A terrible storm of wind and rain struck
West Superior, Wis. Several small build
ings were blown down, but at one spot the
storm left appalling proof of its deadly
force. A large three-story frame struc-
ture near the barge works, partly
completed, was blown down on the
heads of about twenty workingmen
and a score of other people who gathered
within tits limits for protection. It was
with the utmost difficulty that the under
taking of getting at the real extent Of the
disaster was prosecuted. A pair of corpses
dragged from the ruins dispelled the faint
hope that no life had been sacrificed out
right Rescuers were hindered and the
misery of the wounded doubly intensified
by watersoalled garments. The building is
a complete wreck. In spite of the pouring
rain the visitors at the scene rushed in and
assisted the fremen in the cause Of rescue.
Men in all professions and walks of life
stood shoulder to shoulder and worked witt
only the thought of humanity's sake. Five
were killed outright and ten injured.

THE disadvantage OF the decimal
scale is that the number ten can be only
once divided without leaving fraction,
says Temple sBdr. A duodecimal scale
of enumeration would have been much
better, and, IN fact, is much more in
accordance with our present system of
weight, measure and coinage. Had the
Chaldeans or Arabs, who instituted the
decimal scale of numbers from their ten
digits, only taken it from the giants
among them, who, like the giant OF
Gath. had twelve digits as we'll as toes,
the result would have been much more.

ais among succeeding generations as well
