Mr. SPURGEoN's faculty for renem-
berlng names and faces is we'll known,
hut sometimes he makes a slip. and the
following little anecdote shows his
felicitous way of setting himself right
on such occasions. Meeting recently a
young student whom he had not seen
for wear. he said: Right glad to see
You, Mr.. Partridge" The student was
of course immensely gratified to find
that the great divine remembered him,
but reminded the pastor that his name
was not Partridge. but Partridge. ''Oh.
yes" quoth Mr.. Sturgeon, 81 must not

The progress of the European sugar
beet crop is slow. The continued wet
and cold weather has seriously set back
the development of the roots, especially
in the low lying districts, although the
leaves are luxuriant. Even with ex-
ceptionally fine weather in September
it is doubtful whether the increased
acreage will yield an increased pro-
duction. The present tests are on a
level with those of 1883, when the final
yield was twenty per cent. below the
yield of 1890.

tween Chill and Bolivia growing out OF
the latter's recognition of the belliger-

Chilli had declared war against Bolivia,
are said to be untrue and the stories Of

WASHINGTON, Aug. 12.-Consular re-
ports received here yesterday state that
heavy rains have caused great havoc in
most parts of the German empire. The
official report of July makes mention
of an improvement in conditions since
April but holds forth no promise of av-
erage crops. Rye, which is seriously
deficient, has improved Wheat has
made some progress but cannot reach
an average.
Reports from Austria-Hungary show
that the cereal crops will this year be
under the average. 1t is not expected
that wheat can touch the high figures
of last year or fall as low as in 1889.
Pending the official report the yield is
estimated by the trade at $4,000, 900
hundred weight. or 80 per cent more
than in 1889 and 20 per cent. less than
last year, while the rye crop is the
worst almost ever known, some of the
estimates placing it at 40 per cent less
than last year Barley is an average
and oats above an average.
In Italy the outlook continues good
for nearly all crops. The wheat crop,
which is nearly finished, has been sat
isfactory-about an average both in
quantity and quality.
The Spanish crops did not suffer so
much as was expected and the later re-
ports from many districts are quite
favorable. The yield of the peninsula,
h0x ho OF
under the average.
Heavy rains and thunderstorms have
been general over France during the
last week. The reports of the first
threshing in the south are stated to be
disappointing and much less than was
expected for what was known to be a
bad crop. The heavy yield in districts
of the center and north have suffered
from the late weather and the condi-
ton may be said to be worse than July.
Rye has improved somewhat and barley
and oats promise well
The Russian reports still continue
contradictory and doubtful This, how
ever, touches only the question of COM
parative shortage. as it is agreed that
the wheat yield will be below the av-
erage about 20 per cent The rye crop
is exceedingly deficient and for the first

PARIS EXCITED.

The Visit Of Empress Frederick Fans Pop.
ular Hatred Against Germany.
PARIS, Feb. est is no exaggeratlon
to say that this has been n of the most
critical weeks for France and Germany
both since the outbreak of the Franco
Prussian war of 1870 and 1871. So early
as Tuesday last 1t began to be felt in sew
eral circles that the Empress Frederick
was proionging her stay in Paris to a
dangerous extent. The surprise caused
by her practically unannounced and sud-
den arrival and the curiosity which her
movements occasloned, slowly gave way
to a feeling of anxiety. Eearly in the
week a prominent member of the diplo-
matte corps privately informed Count
Won Muster, the German ambassador,
that 1t was evident that the empress was
making q mistake in staying SO long in
Paris. To this the German ambassador
replied: 81 am quite of your opinion,
but l am pcwerless to change the situa-
ton of affair" Then In rapid succession

DUN'S TRADE REPORT.
The Condition of Trade. Though Not
Brisk, Is Encouraging.

The Condition of Trade. Though Not
Brisk, Is Encouraging.
NEW YORK, Feb. 27.-R. G. Dun 4 Cos
weekly review of trade says: "There is
not much change in the condition OF
trade, but there IS little more dullness al
the south and in the northwest, with
little stringency in the money mar
ket, and complaint about slowness of col
lections. In general business is still hes
itating. The larger cause is undoubtedly
a partial loss of crops, which has left n
great many farmers without means for
the usual purchases. At the same time
a collapse of the real-estate boom which
so wildly inflated prices throughout west
and south, has affected business more
than has yet been realized. To this in.
fiuence is added at the south the extreme
ly low values of cotton which affects
farmers more because so many Of them
tried, by holding back their crops, to
force a higher level of prices. The
money markets, though still generally
called easy, give signs of a steady ap-
proach to stringency, and at Omaha
money is quite close. at Milwaukee in &C.
tive demand, and at Cleveland rather
stringent, much being locked up in iron
ore. At Boston the same scarcity of loan
able funds is noticed and rates are firm
and higher.
Southern reports generally not a fair
demand, but no improvement in trade,
while northwestern reports are on the
whole less favorable than before as to
state of business. At Denver business
is better and at Milwaukee, and no
change Is noticed at Kansas City and St.
Paul, but it is only fair ut Omaha, not 50
strong at St. Louis, quiet at Cincinnati,
except that the carrige trade is active, and
only fair in many manufacturers at De-
troit. At Cleveland trade is fairly good,
but brisk 10 hardware aid manufactured

But at Chicago there is
some decrease In receipts of nearly all
products except cured meats and wool,
