Business Is better, although the crop
ourlook affecting prospects beyond the
near future is little less distinct.
There Is more ground for doubt about
winter wheat and cotton than a week ago,
and threshing receipts are comparatively
low, though the prospects for spring wheat
are exceedingly good. The price, y OF a
cent lower for the week, is beyond mistake
too low, If tho latest impressions Of injury
to winter wheat are correct, and receipts
for tho week arc relatively small.
Corn has declined a fraction and pork Is
steady. Cotton has fallen 8-l6ths to
cents, In spite Of reports Of serious injury
by rains In Texas and Louisiana.
Heavy Sale of Wool
Speculation has even spread to the wool
market, and with an advance of about
cent In prices the sales have been the
largest ever known for any week-l4067,-
800 pounds against 9, ,S35. 900 In 1892,
A growing belief that the domestic clip
Is short, and an idea that the coming Lon
don sales, beginning July Q, will show
higher prices, have been more potent than

mand, and the price has risen at all mark.

Lghtweights and mixed goods hesitate,
and some are lower than a year ago, but
since tho Washington mills opened clay

with frequent advances in the rate of
wages paid.
Shipments Of boots and shoes from the
east for four weeks have been $50, $50 cases,
against 81, 800 for the same weeks last
year, which was the largest record for that
month, but the fact shows how imperfcctly

SCHOOL BUILDINGS
About the Names and Why They
Were Given.
DIVIDED INTO THREE CLASSES
Men Who Were Known in Ma
tionaI and Local Affairs.
THE SYSTEM FOLLOWED

The nomenclature Of the public school
edifices of this city has been subjected re-
Gently to some criticism. The complaint is
that good many people in the District
have no acquaintance with the an:ecedents
OF the persons whose names are thus per-
retuated in our school structures. There is
much truth in the statement that there is
ignorance regarding the persons from
whom the school buildings take their name,
yet this fact does not establish the justice
Of the complaint.
There are 100 public school buildings in
this city. and a study of the names which
they bear will show they stand as memo
rails to men who have, as rule, achieved
national or Local distinction. They are
named by order of the Commissioners
to and through the school board. The
nomenclature of these structures may
be divided into three classes; those named
for the Presidents of the United States,
those named on account of geographic
situation. and those named for local men
or distinguished friends of education.
or the first class we have the Adams,
Harrison. Polk. Arthur. Taylor. Madison.
Pierce, Buchanan, Jefferson, Grant Ger-
rlerly called the Analostan), Jackson. Fill
more, Monroe, Van Buren,, Tyler and Lin
coin.
In the geographical group may be placed
ed the RladensburS road, formerly termed
the Hamilton road. after Alexander Hamil-
ton, near which road the building is situat-
ed the Potomac, after our historic river;
the High Street the Brookland, .he Mount
Pleasant the TenleytoWn. the Brightwnod
0wo schools). the Grant Road, the Soldiers
Home the Burrville, the Good Hope. the
Garfield. from the town, not the Presi-
dent; the Conduit Road, the Chain Bridge
Road, the Fort Slocum, after the fort near
the school; the Queens Chapel Road, the
Benning and Benring Road. the Anacostia
Road, the Hillsdale ard the Giesboro'. the
latter to be soon, changed to Congress
iteights. These are named chiefly from
the locality whence the attending pupils
are drawn.
Names of Well-knOvn Men.
The third is the most interesting group
and the one that must bear the brunt Of
the criticism. In this group may be classed
the Franklin. after Benjamin Franklin, the
great self-educated man; the Henry, after
Joseph Henry; the scientist and distin-
guisbed secretary of the Smithsonian In
sttute; the Morse, after S. B. F. Morse,
VINO demonstrated the practicability of
the telegraph; the Webster, after the great
statesman; the Blair, after Francis p.
Eiair, sr., great friend Of education; the
Peabody, after George Peabody, the philan-
thropist; the Greenleaf, after Prof. Simon
Greenieaf, the celebrated authority on
evidence; the Mott, after Lucretia Coffin

THE TELEPHONE NEWSPAPER.
A Story Which May or May Not Be
Quite True.

A Story Which May or May Not Be
Quite True.
From Harper's Weekly.
There is story in the newspapers, which
seems to be intended to be taken seriously,
about the telephone newspaper which has
been working successfully for two years at
Pesth, Hungary. 1t is called the "Tele-
phone Herald has 6.0O0 subscribers, costs
cents and issues twenty-eight editions
meets it with it's subscribers, in whose
houses long flexible wires permit the receiv-
ers to be carried from room to ROOM At
the office of the journal ten men with
strong voices take turns in talking the news
into the telephones. This modern journal
makes all its deliverances to its subscribers
according to a stated schedule, which lets
them know what to expect at stated hours
Of the day. 1t gives them the telegra phic
rewS duly and carefully edited, the local
news, articles on various subjects, and
whatever other newspapers have. When
there is nothing more important to COM
municate the subscribers are entertained by
vocal ard instrumental music, sometimes
discoursed for their especial benefit, some
times gathered from concert halls or
churches where music is gcirg on.
If all this really happens at Pesth, and
not in the moon, Pesth must be the finest
place for illterate. blind. bedridden and in
Curably lazy people In the world 1t would
rot appear, however, that telephone news
paper is of value as me-saving device.
or that it is any less devastating to the
faculties than a modern Journal which dis
tributes its news in the ordinary way.
