A more thorough demonstrate
of popularity and esteem could not
have been rendered any man than
the quiet but unanimous reelection
of Basil Haines Brown to the presid-
ency Of the Philadelphia Produce
Exchange. While the Office of vice
president and the vacancies on the
Board of Managers were eagerly and
holly contested for, yet for president
Mr.. Brown was without opposition
despite many aspirants for the Office.
Mr.. B, Ii. Brown is a member of the
firm of Brown & McMahon on N.
Front street, house that stands out
boldly in the front. as progressive
and honored by q long record of
reliability and promptness. Mr.
Brown was born at Rising Sun, Md,
about 45 years ago, where he lived
with his parents until l6 years of
age, when he entered Eastman's
Business College at Poughkeepsie,
N. Y. After completing his course
he entered the employ of Messrs. Eli
Keen & Sons as salesman. In 1873
he founded the house which now
bears his name, although at that time
it was styled B. Ii. Brown & Co.. and
after two years of successful business
Mr.. M. W. Mcmahon, his present
partner, entered the firm, adopting
the present style. Their career has
been one of great success, as it lie
often said the name of Brown & Nc
Mahon is a household word in the
houses of the fruit and vegetable
shippers from Florida north. In New
York State and Western fruits their
trade is immense and still growing
Under Mr.. Browns efficient guild
ance the Exchange has made rapid
strides into favor; new members
joining at every meeting, and his
laudable suggestions on trade topics

Executive Committee is composed
of one delegate from each of the fifty
states and territories of the United
States, and the eight Provinces Of
the Dominion of Canada.
At a meeting of this committee in
August last, the following resolution
was unanimously adopted:
believing that the Sunday school
cause throughout the world will be
advanced by q suitable exhibit at
the Columbian Exposition to be held
in Chicago in 1898. We deem it wise
and expendient for the Sunday
schools of America, and such other
lands as may desire to unite with us
to make this exhibit, and we recon-
mend that all Sunday schools in
America take up collection for such
purpose and for the promotion OF
such cause. on February 2lst. 1892.
or upon July let. 1892, or as near
these dates as practicable and f,,r
ward the amount of such collection
to the person whom the committee
shall designate as treasurer. That
unless some more satisfactory plan
presents itself to the committee, this
exhibit should he in q building to be
erected for this purpose upon the
Exposition grounds and designated
as the International Sundsy.school
Building"
At conference of representative
Sunday school workers, held at Chau
tauqua, after this meeting, twenty
one States and Provinces and tbs
District of Columbia we're represent
ed. And after having read and dis
cussed this resolution, this Confer
ence most heartily approved an6
endorsed it by q rising and unani

3. r B. M. G.. Club Friday,
Goth.
A forlorn tramp entered the office
of Magistrate A. J. Scott, of Elkton,
one day last week and begged the
squire to send him to the House of
Correction, alleging he was tramp
and could not be anything else. He
had served q term or two at the Cut
and be had reached the conclusion
that was the only place be was fit for.
His friends would have nothing to
do with him but ordered him to
''move on" He found when he re-
turned home after release from the
House of Correction that his mother
was dead and with this his last hope
fade, all his other kindred refusing to
have anything to do with him. He
was pale and haggard and had had
nothing to eat for three days he
claimed. The sheriff took him to the
Jail and gave him square meal and
the squire gave him one year in the
House of Correction, but his tramp
proclivities will never be corrected
according to his own belief.
