INCREASE IN DRY GOODS TRADE
The Record Being Broken in the Amount
OF Business Done.

NFw YORK, September 25.-A mem
hcr Of one of the largest dry goods
firms in this country said today in
talking with the president of his bank
over the general business situation:
I'VE are doing very large business.
In fact, one day last week we broke the
record in doing the largest business in
the history of the house, and this Is
saying a good deal"
What is true of that house, in a gen
eral way, is true of almost every other
house in the same line, and is also true
of the houses in nearly every other
line of trade.
Further evidence of this picking up
Of trade was given at the public sale
Of silk goods held yesterday. The sale
was made of the products of seven silk
mills some of which are located in this
country, and others in France, Italy,
and Germany, and it aggregated 900
pieces or about 100000 yards, which
brought in round numbers $500, 900, the
average prices paid being good 1t had
been expected that the sale would
take at least two days, but SO brisk was
the buying that it was all concluded
within the dav.

DR.. Reeds Successor to Be Elected as Soon
as Possible.
The following has been issued by tie
executive committee of Greensboro Fe-
male college and sent 10 all the patrons
of the institution
GREENSBORO, N. c, Sept "a. 1894
1t is with profound sorrow that we
have to announce to you the death of our
friend and brother, Rev. F. l. Reid, D.
D president of Greensboro Female col
lege.
1t is proper, at this time, that We make
an official statement to all the patrons
and friends of the college concerning the
present management snd future plans
which this committee propose for this
old and honored institution
The present faculty was selected and
organized by DR. Reid, and has already
given evidence by its successful work for
the past three years, that not a single
mistake has been made in its selection
Under this arrangement DR.. Reid did
no classroom work, his time being fully
occupied by other duties viii, b devolved
upon him as president In consequence
of this arrangement the regular work of
the pupils will in no wise be affected by
his death, and all the exercises of the col
| lege will be continued without Interrupt
! ton.
AS Dr. Reid has never resided IL the
college and the Rev Prof. J D. Arnold
and his excellent wife have had charge
of all the pupils in the college, the inter
Tor workings of the institution will con
tinue as they have been since DR.. Reid's
election to the presidency
The board of directors will, as soon as
practicable, elect a president to succeed
DR.. Reid, meanwhile, all letters Of In
quiry, etc, should be directed to Profes
sor Dred Peacock, who has been elected
by this committee as chairman of the
faculty. Very truly yours,

their winters sleep, getting out their
machines, and preparing for the initiative

not been dormant in the true sense

THE LITTLE CARD.

"An right" said Harry; "it is a
good verse for me just the one. |
need something to keep me honest
all through : well try it, and see
what it will do :" and he pocketed
the card and went away.
1t startled him little to discover
how soon it had chance to do some
thing for him. 1t was the next aft
ernoon, and he was busy as usual IN
the store. A favorite errand boy
was Harry, always good natured and
quick motiOned. He was eager to
do his beast, and had reason to be
there were not many vacancies in
this store, and at least a dozen boys
had wanted the place he held In
the course of the afternoon he was
sent for to 90 to the cashiers desk.
There stood Mr.. Warfield, junior
partner in the firm. "Harry" he
said, holding out letter, take this
around to Mr.. Robert Parker's on
Pearl Street and tell him it did not
come in time to be sent to him be-
fore this afternoon mail closed Well,
what is it? Don't you understand
the directions ?" For Harry, with
out making the slightest attempt to
take the letter, stood blushing.
Eyes SIR" he said; "but, Mr..
Warfeld, that is the letter which
came yesterday morning, know it
by the queer stamp,
Suppose it did, what of that ?"
"Why, sir, it must have been in
time to send to Mr.. Parker's before
this afternoon mail closed"
Mr.. Warfeld smiled significantly.
"Seems to Lac, Harry, that part is
none of your business, is it ~
"No, sir" answered Harry, blush
ing more violently than before, sit

ing to give that message. | always
speak the truth"
ooh! you do 2" said Mr.. War
field. Every well, you may go; |
will call some one else to do the er-
rand" And Harry went, his heart
as heavy as lead. How hard he had
worked to get this situation.
II don't believe | would have spo-
ken if 1t had not been for that old
card" he said to himself, "and it
sounded real saucy to say it | don't
know whether it was right or not.
But it wouldn't have been right to
have told lie, of course. On the
whole, | suppose | am glad | had the
card, because / would haye been aw-
fully tempted, | know | would. And
mother will be glad, too; but she
will be sorry that | have lost my
place."
1t was his turn to serve IN the store
until eight o'clock that night. Even
after the clock mad struck eight and
he knew he was free to go he linger-
ed, expecting to receive a call to the
cashiers desk, and notice that he
would not be wanted any more. But
no such call came, and he went home
sorrowfuI.
He told his mother the whole story,
and she was the kind of m6tner who
kissed him and said she was glad
she would not have had him tell lie
for all the places in the world and
of course he felt better after that,
but it was hard to lose his situation.
Next morning, sure enough before
nine o'clock he was summoned, not
to the cashiers desk, but to the pri-
vate Office, where sat Warfield and
the senior partner.
''This is the boy,n said Mr.. War
field, as Harry entered.
