An Improvement In Actual Business and
in Prospects,.
New York, June lS-R. G. Dun & Co. s
weekly review of trade: "no, weather and
hot politics together have affected business
at many points, but there is nevertheless
improvement both in actual trade and in
prospects. One OF the various causes is the
improvement in the crop outlook. The
outlook is brighter at St. Paul and trade is
remarkably good. At Minneapolis trade is
better than last year, lumber is active and
the flour output the largest on record. 2l4,.
900 barrels against lSS 600 last year. Money
IS everywhere abundant and failure of col
lections few. Business failures occurring
throughout the country the last seven days
number Ito, as compared with total of
W. last week. For the corresponding week
of last year the figures were 2S3.

The Lottery Obeys the Law,

In view of the contradictory rumors cir
culated regarding the intentions of the
Louisiana State Lottery Company and in
order to accurately answer numerous in
quires, representative of the Times-Demo-
crat Yesterday interviewed Mr.. Paul Con-
rad, the president of the company, with the
result expressed below.
Reporter-Mr. Conrad, it was asserted
some weeks ago in the Northern newspa-
pers and the statement has since been re-
vlved recently, that the company is about
to remove to Nicaragua, and there, under
a government franchise. open up the BUSH
ness on grander scale than ever.
President Conrad have heard some
thing of this, but there is no foundation
tor it: The company has officially stated
that it bows to the decision of the Supreme
Court and will respect the laws.
Reporter-Then you have no plans of
future action?
President Conrad-E cannot state the
csae more strongly than was done at the
time the company decided not to attempt
to obtain renewal of its charter I can
only repeat that the company willcontinue
in business until the expiration Off its pres
not unders tand. after all tina. has been said,
why there should be any confusion in the
public mind about the matter.
Keporter--Have you any. objection to
my stating this as finality for the 'sati,iac-
ton of the public?
President Conrad whatever.
Reporter-Some of the Eastern papers.
Mr.. Conrad, persistently assert that the
lottery company continues to use the
United States mails in the prosecution of its
business; will you kindly tell me if that is
true?
President Conrad-It is utterly untrue. !
We are obeying the law in its letter and
spirit, and our agents everywhere are
structed to obey it. We are using the
press companies only in OUT bushes.

BLAINE BEREAVED.
The Ex-Secretarys Eldest Son, EN-
mons, Passes Suddenly Away
in Chicago Yesterday.
His Sudden Death Is Supposed to
Have Been Caused by
Blood Poisoning.

CHICAGO, June IS -Emmons Blaine,
son OF ex Secretary Blaine, died today
at is a. NJ, of blood poisoning, the
result of Inflammation of the bowels.
The fact of young Mr.. Blaine's death
was kept concealed for some time after
he had actually passed away. the object
being to reach his father and
mother first with some gen.
tie intimation of the sad news. The
efforts to get telegraphio communion.
ton with the ex.secretary failed, how
ever, and about 1915 the news of the
death leaked out. It was not until
about a quarter of an hour prior to
the fatal moment that the least
intimation that Mr.. Blaine wss
in dangerous condition be-
came known. and then only to few.
At his office in the Baltimore
Il Ohio railroad headquarters in this
city, his associates were only aware that
he was i'll and had been so for several
days. Reporters were sent to the
Blaine residence at 1875 Rush street, but
while there were informed that the pa
TENTS ailment had assumed q
fatal form, and no other lnfor-
nation could be gained for the time
being. Young MIR. Blaine was nota.
BILE figure in the exciting convention
scenes at Minneapolis that resulted in
his fathers defeat He took the result
greatly to heart and was confoed to his
room shortly after his return. Dur.
ing the convention he seemed in
perfect health ard no one who heard Of
his sudden passing away Was more
shocked than those who saw him par.
ticipating III oaucuses. early and late,
night and day, in his fathers
interest. 1t is thought possible
by many that the strain and
excitement at Minneapolis, followed
by keen disappointment of the out.
come, have not had little to do with
the physical prostration ensuing. The
death scene took place in the great
brownstone mansion of the Mccormick
family on Rush street. His wife.
Mrs. Emmons Blaine. and year
old son, Mccormick Blaine, were tie
only persons present besides Mrs. Cyrus
Mccormick, young Mrs. BlaIne's
mother. Death came swiftly. When
it did come there was not time to SUM-
mon the other members of the McCor-
mick family, Mr.. and Mrs. W. G. Nc
Cormick, who were in the house at the
time

GONE WITH THE PINS.

Where is the thrill of last nights fear?
Where is the stain of last week IS tear?
where is the tooth that ached last year?
Gone where the lost pins go to
for last nights riddle is all made plain,
The sunshine laughs at the long past rain.
And the tooth that ached hath lost its pain
That's what our troubles grow to-
Where are the clothes that we used to wear?
Where are the burdens we used to bear?
Where is the bald-head's curling hair?
Gone where the pins disappear to;
For the style has changed and the clothes are
new,
The skies are wearing brighter blue,
Ihe balr dosen't snarl as it used to do
And the parting has grown more clear, too.
Where are the bills that our peace distressed >
Where is the pin that the baby 'bIessed?''
here are the doves in last years nest?
Where have the pins all gone to?
On the old bills paid are the new ones thrown
ne baby's at school with herpins out-grown.
And the squads are running a nest of their
own
You can't bring em back if you want to-
We can stand the smart of yesterday,
To-day worse ills we can drive AWAY.
What s was and is brings no dismav
I or past and present sorrow;
But the burdens that make us groan and sweat
The troubles that make us fume and fret
Are the things that haven't happened yet
The pins that we'll find tomorrow
