LOG GRAIN AND PRODUCE.
All Along the Line Less Complaint Is
Heard of Dull business.

In all departments of trade less COM
plant is heard OF inactivity. and the whole
sale men are much encouraged Grocers
are busy. For some time the supply of
sugar has been low. but it is now more
plentiful. and this helped matters. All
staple groceries carry a firm tone. Eggs
are firm. but not quotably higher. Poultry
weak. but not quotably lower. The supply
OF fruits is good. Some fine peaches are
arriving from Michigan, fine pears and ap-
Piles from New York. and yesterday the
first shipment of Delaware grapes was re-
ceived. Dry-goods men had a good day,
and In fact in all branches OF trade more
activity than lass week is apparent. Col
lections are easy. and on the whole the
situation Is much more favorable

Gems from state Auditors Report.

To the Editor OF the Indianapolis Journals:
a glance over the report of the Auditor
of State for the year 1899. which has just
been issued. presents some very unattrac-
tive features to the taxpayer. A few OF
the things that one may see in this inn
portant volume are: That Attorney-gen-
eral Green Smith received in fees and sal
airy from the State the modest little sum
of S~2e,S11.S1 last year. Whether this was
all he got we are not informed by the
report: that the State Board of Tax Com
missioners-the new board created a few
years since TO 90 part of the work OF the
State officers proper-cOst the State the
trifinS sum OF s22. 73l. 75-S4.0O in salaries
and SIS. TS1.15 In expenses, exclusive OF the
big attorney fees I'm the tax cases that will
go into the account for the year 1891: that
the cost OF running the State government in
IS1iana Is 500 per capita in the way of
direct taxation, while the same cost in
Ohio is only S.32 per capita; that >, cost
OF caring for and operating our lsautiful
Statehouse was s~51,56S.59 for the year 1893.
These are only a few OF the gems con-
tanned in the volume. An itemized accornt
OF the expenses OF the State Board OF Tax
Commissioners Is one of the omissions IN
the work that the reader will much re-
greet. j. II. CLAYPOOL.

Hon. Daniel F. Beatty, the great Or

is buster than ever. In 1870 Mr.. Beatty
left home a penniless pillow boy, and by
his indomitable will he has worked his
way up so as to sell so far, nearly 100, 900
Of Beatty's Pianos and Organs since 1870.
Nothing seems to dishearten him obsta-
Giles lay in his way that would have
wrecked al ordinary man forever; he
turns to an advertisement and comes out
OF it brighter than ever. His instru-
ments are in use everywhere. We are
informed that during the rex ten wears
he intends TO sell 200, 900 more OF his
make. That means a business of 500
000, 1000, if we average them at 800 each.
1t is already the largest business OF the
kind in existence. Read his ADVERTISE

A MODERN CINDERELLA.
There Is n Mystery Surrounding a Pretty
Little Los Angeles Girl.

There Is n Mystery surrounding a Pretty
Little Los Angeles Girl.
Is poor pretty Annie O'Hanrahan a
modern Cinderella? A great many peo-
pie are inclined 10 believe that she is.
The court proceeding regarding this hap
less child were recently recited in these
dispatches. The girl is in the care of a
home here. and her alleged parents, Nj.
and Mrs. OrHanrahan, are trying to re-
gain possession of her. The mystery Of
the case was caused by the contradictory
evidence of the parents. They brought
Annie up with the idea that she was not
their child and that her mother was a
Mrs. PAYNE of ENGLAND. but when Annie
sought refuge in the Florence home they
declared that they were her parents.
They have dropped hints about the
possibility of the child coming into a
great inheritance some day, and it would
seem that there was some basis for this
hypothesis, for they are now rs eager to
get hold of her as they were to lose her,
