Trade I'm Most Departments Active,

The volume OF business in progress on
South Meridian street with the wholesale
men and on Commission row Is a surprise,
as a very dull July had been anticipated.
But the dry goods houses. grocers, hard
ware men and druggists are doing a good
deal more than in July last year. and on
Commission row there is remarkable activ-
ity- Receipts OF fruits and vegetables are
liberal and the demand good. Tomatoes
and watermelons are the only articles of
which there is a surplus Irish pota-
toes are frm at prices quoted. Cabbage is
in good supply. but as IL Is al shipped In
here, prices rule high. Poultry. eggs and
butter are In scod supply and with a tame
market. prices carry an easy tone. Other
markets are without feature.
Tn local grain market showed more ac-
tivity yesterday and, while receipts and
shipments were light. the condition OF the
market is to more activity. Rates still are

CLEVELAND, o., July 1.-THE Iron
further heavy inroad on unsold stocks of
pig iron was made in June, according TO
the Western Pig Iron Association returns,
and while another month will show quite
an increase in production, the recent re-
sumptions have not yet told strongly on
the column of active capacity. The fact
that even under the latest advices buyers of
foundry iron are still trying to make pur-
chases beyond the time limits set by most
producers would indicate a belief that the
buyers are getting work in hand that makes
them more willing to cover fully at cur
rent prices than they were to buy in one
hundred-ton lots four months ago. The
eastern Pennsylvania advance Of close to
81 a ton, bringing Lehigh Valley iron TO a
basis Of $3.50 for No. 2 X. foundry, and
gray forge to $11.50 was an index of actual
conditions-the withdrawal of Southern
competition through the taking up of prod
uct for several months ahead and the en-
gagements of the capacity of all Eastern
furnaces for from sixty to ninety days
ahead. Bessemer iron, taking the average
of the weeks sales, is fully so per cent.
higher than in the preceding week. Sew
eral blocks Of metal were sold in the lat
ter portion of last week at sl3.25 in the
valley. A later sale is reported at SIC. 50.
Consumption is still plainly in excess of
production and the tonnage of finished
steel in all forms shows no signs of relax
ing. The billet make is becoming more
conspicuous by the absence of sales. There
are few buyers and fewer sellers.

Personal SKETCHES.
David Emery.

David Emery of Chelsea is an excel
lent type Of the old school Vermonter
the frugal, hard working, but shrewd,
successful and prosperous farmer. He
was born in 1877 at Grantham, N. H..
and came to Washington, VT, with his
fathers family when he was 12 wears
old. He worked out on farms most of
the time from then until he was 81
years OF age, and bought place for his
parents. That meant, in those DAYS.
long hours, hard work and small pay
in well-carned dollars, that look as
large as full moons. David worked for
Alvin Hovey, a large farmer of Brook
field, so faithfully four years that he
won the confidence of his EMPLOYER
and won the hand of his daughter and
continued to remain II years after the
marriage. Then he purchased the farm
and stock of his father-in-law, which
put him in debtmore than 81 200. which
he paid off in four years, chiefly by rails
ing Merino sheep. In 1864, he sold his
wool to Mr.. Aldrich, an agent of Jacob
Collamer, for 95c. per pound, amount

at the first term of the new institution
was l29, and the total attendance for the
year was PA. Judge Ross continued
as principal until lo55, when he was
succeeded by o. D. Allis. He, leaving
in the fall of 1856, was succeeded
in turn by c. c. Conant, Azlo A..
Smith, Horace B. Woodwork, Walter
Gibson, Lucien B. Eaton, John Paul
and David F. Cole. The latter left in
1862. as Captain of Co. d., 10Th VT,
and the academy then ceased to exist
as such Select schools were intermit-
tingly conducted in the building by
Caroline d. Jones, Ellen A. Kent, Mari
on Walker and possibly others, until it
was destroyed by fire in the summer Of
1870. The site, though one of the most
eligible in the village, has never since
been utilized for building purposes.
After the fire, the village school and
outside academies accommodated those
desiring advanced instruction. Among
those who have had charge of the vii
lage school, prior to the reorganization
OF the academy, may be mentioned w.
II. Cummings,J. II. Dunbar, d. j. Fos-
ter, Eugene R. Darling, A. A. Babcock,
E. w. Goodhue and W. Z. Sargent.
In 1884 the academy was reorganized
and Harmon J. Locke engaged as prin-
cipal. lie served until 1856, when John
M. Comstock. who had previously
taught here, became principal, and he
still has charge of the school, assisted
by Misses Spaulding and Wells. Under
his charge the school has made rapid
strides in efficiency. as well as in repu-
tation, and is now everywhere recog-
niZed as an institution where good
work is done. Regular courses of study
are prescribed and diplomas conferred. |
The attendance includes many from adj

j. A. II. CorMin

Was born in Lowell. Mass, in 1881,
moved to Chelsea with his fathers fam
ily in 1889. was educated in the com.
mon and select schools Of the town and
has resided here ever since. His IA
ther, Russell Corwin, was 40 years
resident of the town. and during the
later years of his life was a fruit vend-
er at fairs and other public resorts,
and as such was widely known. As an
index of the change in taste and man
ner, the fact may be stated that when
Mr.. Corwin used to sell fruit and lem
onade at Dartmouth commencement,
some 40 years ago, there were large
crowds assembled on the campus, and
a score or more OF peddler's tents. Now
everything is quiet. and the exercises
are held in the church. j. A. X. fol-
lowed the same business as his father
until 1868, when he entered the store of
Geo. +. Hyde 4 Co., as clerk. In the
fall of 1864, in company with Geo. II.
Lathrop. he bought ont Hyde's store
and they were in business one year.
Then Mr.. Corwin was in company with
his brothcr-in-law, VIM. VeZie. three
years. He is at present very ably as
sisted by his two sons, +. A. and V. A,
Corwin. He carries a general line of
dry goods, clothing, boots and shoes.
Mr.. Corwin was in trade during the
high prices prevailing in war time,
and remembers well when cotton cloth
was zoe. per yard, print, 40c.. tea Sl.7j
to 80 per pound, sugar, 33c., coarse
salt, $3.50 per bushel, nails, l5c. per
pound, cut nails at that, and Kerosene,
$3.50 per gallon. Wool touched 81,
butter, 50c.. eggs, Soc. per dozen. Wool
en- shirting then sold for Sl.25 ryard,
which would now bring not more than
SOC, gloves. $3.50, now worth soc.
Never before could the laboring man
supply necessary wants for SO few
houis' labor as during the few recent
years. In 1854, Mr.. Corwin married
Fannie j., daughter of Harry w. Hatch
