Well dried bricks scattered through a
hay NOW and among grain bins will absorb
any moisture there may be and prevent
mildew. In some localities thoroughly
dried bricks are always put among newly
threshed grain, and are kept stored when
not in use in hot, dry place until they
becor.e veritabIe sponges. Well-dried
bricks will absorb undue dampuess in
cellars and sink places, but when they have
served their purpose they must be thor
oughly dried and aired, when they will be
ready for use again.

A Church Built in 1885.
From lne pallImore sunday News.

From the Baltimore Sunday News.
One of the most interesting churches
in the city of Baltimore, and one whose
history is one of the landmarks of the
city itself, is the Otterbein United Breth
rem in Christ Church that stands at the
northeast corner Of Conway and Sharp
streets. This church was built in 1856 by
Bishop William 0tterbein, the founder of
the United Brethren faith in the United
States. Through all its long history this
venerable church has been successful. and
has given aid and strength to the upbuld-
ing of other churches of a similar charact-
er in the city. The church is named in
honor of Bishop Otterbein. This pious
and devout man was born in Dulinberg,
Germany, June 4, 1926 He was ordain-
ed in the Reformed Church at Herborn in
1749 and sent by the Synod Of Holland as
missionary to America in 1852. He
began his labors at Lancaster, Pa, and
then labored in Maryland. He came to
Baltimore in 1884.
The first Conference of the United
Brethren Church ever held in the United
States was held in the Ottebein Church
in 1883. Taa ministers present at that
Conference were Philip William Otterbein,
Martin Boehm, George A. Quoting, Adam
Lehman, John Ernst, Henry Weidner and
Christian Newcomer.
The Otterbein Church is the oldest
church edifce now standing in the city
of Baltimore. IL contains two bells, cast
at Bremen, Germany, with this inscription
on them:

Mr.. BlAlNE'S FUNERAL.

The Services at Washington Simple But
Impressive-The BODY Laid to Rest at
Oak Hill Cemetery.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 31-Every effort
was made to comply with the expressed
desires of the family of the late ex-Sec-
rotary james g. Blaine for a private
funeral, but vast public interest swept
over the barriers imposed and made the
funeral one of the most impressive of
public demonstrations in honor of the
dead.
The parlor on the second floor where
the body lay in its cedar casket, closely
sealed, was fairly uncovered with for
al tributes
The services took place at the Church
of the Covenant and were conducted by
Rev. DR.. Hamlin. The president and
vice president and families, members of
the cabinet, members of the senate and
house, diplomatic corps and other dis
tinguished persons were present
At 1890 o'clock the solemn organ
music announced the arrival of the fu-
neral party at the door of the church.
As the head of the procession walked
up the aisle Walter Damrosch, who was
at the organ, played an improvisation
made up of several themes of hymns,
which Mr.. Blaine loved. All rose and
remained standing as the funeral payty
moved down the aisle.
When all were seated the deep peals
of the organ ceased and Dr. Hamlin
from his place in the pulpit began the
church services with the reading of Sc
lections from the scriptures. 81. Prayer
was then offered up by the doctor.
At the close of the prayer the funeral
procession once more formed and the
body was conveyed to Oak Hill GENE
terry and there laid to rest

Dun's Report.

New YORK, Feb. 5.-According to
R. 6. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review of
Trade actual business is surprisingly
large for the season and yet fears about
the future are also large. Congressional
uncertainties cause the fears, but the
prosperity and the needs of the people
make business what it is and never be-
fore has the distribution of products to
the consumer been larger than it has
been thus far this year. Yet it is safe
to say that rarely if ever, except in a
time of panic, has business been more
cautiously and conservatively regulated.
Monetary uncertainties are excused by
the continued outgo of gold, but the
passage of the anti-option bill by the
senate has had no effect upon the mar
kets as vet.
