IN THE FRONT RANK.

The Pttsburg Times of May 49, 1896.
says of the Bloomsbury State Normal
School:
Since the opening of the school 2S
years ago, it has stood in the front rank
as an inStitution of learning, has ad-
vanced and improved with the times
and enjoys reputation among the
leading educators as a model institu-
ton. where a complete education can
be secured at a small cost"
The National Educator of March IA,
1896, says of the same school:
THE growth and prosperity of the
school has been. phenomenal. We will
briefly erumerate some of the material
changes. New furniture came first,
then the beautiful auditorium was
modelled. Next the large four-story
dormitory and gymnasium were built.
Electric lights. the new Library, the
Elevator and the employees Dornitory
and Sanitarium soon followed. The new
Athletic field is another remarkable
feature of its growth. In short, the
school has grown SO wonderfully that
those who have not visited 1t in five
years would be astonished to see the
transformation"
The New Catalogue of this School
can be had by addressing the principal,
Dr. ]. p. Welsh. 1t is finely illustrated
and has much valuable information.
Hundreds of men and women in all
parts of the United States owe their
success and prosperity to the fact that
they were educated at this excellent
School. The graduates are found in
thirty-one states and territories and in
several foreign countries. Under
graduates. of whom there have been
over ten thousand, are still more widely
distributed. The roll of students for the
past year represents twelve different
states.
All these facts prove that the public
are finding out where they can buy the
most and bes. education for the least
money. 80 ga.

Driver Of q Beer Wagon Lost $3.50, but
Was Fortunate That an Honest
Man Found the Money.

Thomas Kirwin, driver for the Mea-
dow Brook Brewing company, whose
route is through Olyphant and Peck
VILE, lost "A pocketbook containing $3.50
early yesterday morning. He had the
money In 4 ioX beside him On the seat,
and as he was driving along Mates
street under the railroad bridge he dis
covered his loss. Two other delivery
wagons from the same brewery came
along ben1 him. but neither of the
drivers noticed the box on the road
Drayman Charles Kiefer, OF Cedar ave-
nue. saw the box lying in the middle of
the road near the Cedar avenue bridge,
but when he got off and picked it up he
little dreamed what 1t contained, and
thought there might be a monkey
wrench or such as that in it. When he
saw the money he took steps imme-
diately to find the loser and did not have
far TO go, for Kirwin and the other
two drivers We're searching farther uD
the street, ana We're in an excited
frame of mind. When the money was
returned, Kirwin was a thankful man.
Mr.. kiefer Is young man and this act
on his part, when he could easily have
kept the money and no one would be
the wiser as it was at an early hour in
the morning, is in line with his repu-
tation as an honest and upright per-
son.

MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Review

New York, Aug. 1.-THE bears had n
field day at the Stock Exchange. liqui-
dations having been on a heavy scale
putil the last hour Of business when a
steadier tone prevailed, the latter a re-
suit of covering of short contracts. The
early loss in prices was equal to 1G7A
per cent. in the usually active list and
2@3 per cent. in the specialties was due
principally to the higher rates for
money demanded by bankers generally
which has compelled weak holders to
market their securities Today call
money which has not risen above 3 per
cent. for months suddenly advanced to
per cent and closed near the toy
figure. Dealings in time money wt1e
on very moderate scale and in fact
lenders were not disposed to do busi-
ness in this department at all. To add
to the nervousness a story was started
tOthe effect that the banks intended to
issue clearing house certificates. There
was nothing in this report but it had
its influence. 1t is true that there has
been considerable calling in of loans
by the banks but this always happens
when values are the stock exchange
melt away the same as they did today.
The west waS also a seller for the ac-
count of operators who have sustained
serious losses through the collapse of
the Diamond Match deal Another de-
pressing factor was the alleged state
ment by eX-Secretary of the Navy Whit
ney that Bryan would carry New York
This alarmed any number of small op-
orators and resulted in the selling of
quite a large amount Of long stock. Low
records We're made in number OF in
stances and some stocks sold below the
figures current IN the Venezuelan war
scare.
In the last hour the market improved
hGi3 per cent. owing to liberal pur-
chases by the leading bears who wished
to turn their paper profits into cash.
Speculation closed steady in tone. Net
losses in the usually active issues
ranged from y to 6 per cent. Marhat-
tan leading. Total sales were i,O0G
shares.
