While 1t Rained.

1t was nea midnight of the fifty Gav
out, and all was peaceful aboard the
ark. Wearied by his labors in feeding
the animals and navigating the vessel,
Noah was wrapped in a: profound
sleep, and his deep, regular snoring
seemed to impart a rythmical cadence
to the sound of the rain that beat in
~cessantly upon the deck planlis just
above his head. Suddenly there was a
cOmmotion among the animals. One
of the tigers had succeeded in thrust
ing his paw through the galvanized
iron wire partition that separated him
from the hyena, and had dug his claws
into that interesting creatures hide.
There arose a fierce outcry, in which
ali :he beasts of prey in that part of
the ark joined, and the noise aroused
Noah into partial consciousness.
''Japhet," he said, stirring ~uneasily,
get something to throw and raise the
window. The neighbours cats are in
the back yard again!'-Chicago Trib-
me.

MONEY FOR MISSIONS.

The AIl-Absorbing Theme at the Episcopal
Convention General Demand for More
Means-The Church in America Charged
with Neglect of Its Foreign Missionaries
sympathy for Armenians-A Good Word
for Texas.
MINNEAPoLIs, Mimi, Oct. 5.-"Money
for Missions" was the all-day theme of
the two houses of the Episcopal con-
vention, and which, in accordance
with the constitution, sat together as
the general board of missions yester-
day. The fathers of the church told
of the work that had been done, OF
the difficulties surrounding it, and
of the need of finances with
out stint. and ministerial recruits
without number. to the end that
might be pushed forward in the lame
of the Master. The majority of the
variations bristled with criticisms of
the failure of the American church to
adequately hold up the hands of it's
representatives in other lands.
After the adoption of a resolution
commendatory of Gov. Culburson and
the Texas legislature, voluminous
printed reports on foreign and do
nestle missions were presented in be-
half of the board for managers. 1t
showed that the gross receipts of the
board for the year were, including the
balance of last year and a personal
loan of S65, 600 from Mr.. George Bliss,
1854, 500, and the disbursements S716,-
org - . lnl,-a- &c SEQ - -
hand on September /. The loan from
Mr.. Bliss had been returned. The re-
port of the Women's auxiliary showed
that it had collected S167, 643 for the
fiscal year, of which $50, S33' had been
disbursed without coming into the CEN
trail treasury.
The report was referred to commit
tees, and then the missionary bishops
were presented in regular order.
Bishop Ferguson, of Africa, a colored
man, protested that the church had
not done its duty in regard to foreign
missions.
Bishop Graves, of China, was next
presented, and made an appeal for
money.
Bishop MchIm, of japan, said that
the war had taught the Japanese a
lesson, for there were hundreds of
Christians in the front of battle, and
the way they fought was known all
over 1t was now recognized that a
man was no less a japanese because he
had become a Christian.
The work of the colored commits
sioner vas represented by Bishop Nell
son., of Georgia. He said that his do
cese was 90 per cent. missionary, and
yet the total moneys received last year
for the building up of this jurisd lotion
only averaged sever and a half cents
a head of the people reached. The
Episcopal church was the onlyone MAX
ing any advance in the moral condi-
ton of the people of the south.
Bishop Brooke, of Oklahoma. spoke
briefly for the Indians OF New Mexico
and Arizona.
Reports on the mission fields of Mex
leo and Brazil were made by Bishop
McLaren, DR.. Forester, of Mexico
city, and others.

oUN's COMMERCIAL REVIEW

NEW YORK, Oct. 5.-R. G. Dun & Co.
in their weekly review of trade issued
to-day say:
Commercial failures in the third
quarter of 1898 were 2,792, with liabil-

about Is per cent. more.
Highly important comparisons of
prices this week show about Octo-
Der 3 the lowest range ever known for
wholesale prices of all commodities.
Under the appropriate headings are
given details of the different prod.
ucts with their cause, the most i'm
portant being the unprecedented crop
of corn and oats, a larger crop of
wheat than false representations led
the world to expect, an enormous de-
mand for manufactured goods to re-
plenish depleted stocks when prices
began to raise, and a decrease in Weld
of cotton.
The cotton market has mounted
above Q cents and holds, in spite of re-
Rlizing, but as the crop is late and
quite largely held back, does not yet
feel the influence of the receipts nat
ural at this date.
Wheat is n shade weaker, while west
ern receipts have been $3.50, 494 bush
els, against 4,4S7, 404 last year, while
Atlantic exports have been only 1,O3S,-
179 bushels, against :, 791, 4S9 last year.
Reports from other cities at the end
of the quarter are highly cheering in
facts recorded, and reflects u hopeful
spirit. Beyond question the quarter
has shown astonishing Improvement in
some branches, and retail distribution
has generally been good, though not
commensurate with speculative whole
sale purchases, as prices were rising.
Henct there is a marked decrease in
buying, which some branches Of in
dustry begin to feel.

The Pennsylvania has ordered 40. 900

bought their pig, Bessemer is lower,

smaller, so that the average of iron
prices turns downward Tor the first
time since February.
Coke workers gain o per cent. more
wages, and coke is raised IS to 33 per

The market is stronger with heavy
demands from the interior. All fears
