He Remembers q Kindness by
Leaving u Bellefontaine
Couple $4,000.

The following taken from the Belle
fontaine Examiner goes to show that
all tramps are not bad fellows
Some years ago when NJ John II.
Barton and wife, formerly Miss Ottie,
daughter of Mr.. George Kaylor, who
lives near the Silver Lake, were resi-
dents of this county they were called
upon by tramp who was sick and
badly in need of help They took
the man into their home and gave
him every care until health was re-
stored and he was able to resume his
journey. The family afterward NOV
ed from this county to Van Vert or
Mercer county and recently a letter
was received at this postofice ad-
dressed to Jobu H. Barton. 1t was
forwarded to him at his present home
and proved to be a very important
communication. 1t was written by
an attorney and announced the death
of the tramp cared for at the Barton
home years ago and long since for
gotten, and also that the man had
left Mr. and Mrs Barton legacy of
$4,000.
This proves that true kindness is
never forgotten and that in the
breasts of wandering tramps gratitude
sometimes finds an abiding place,
and also that bread cast upon the
waters will certainly return.

Armenian Question 500 Years Ago.

Not even the Armenian question is new
Apparently Edward III had to deal with
it, though in the greatly modified form of
three monks. In the year 1860 these
refugees came to the King at Reading,
and made complaint that the Mussuimans
were irving to exterminate their people,
Hence they fled, and now asked leave
to live in England and collect subscrip-
tions for their fellow-sufferers. The King
granted this petition and took the Arme-
mans under his protection, but only. as
long as the protected should, do nothing
injurious to the King and realm and
should "bear themselves In true 1altn ana
honesty.n The incident is very curious.
From that time to this-635 years,.the
persecution of the Armenians has seldom
ceased. Yet the Armenlans have sur
vived and have kept their faith. Surely
there must be good deal IN people with
such history as this.-London Spectator.

DuN,s REVIEW OF TRADE.

NEW YORK N Y, Feb. 7.-R. G. Dun & Co.'s
weekly report of trade w i'll say tomorrow: Fall
ures for the week have been 323 in the United
States. against 2S1 last year, and % in Canada,
against So last The wonderful success of the
popular loan alters the face of events. January
operations become ancient history as the Nation
mounts a bove all doubts and fears to a solid
tainty that the people can and will uphold their
Government. The influence of this event upon all
manufacturing and all trade cannot be lightly es-
timated. 1t strips the silver situation of all its
power to hurt. II puts the treasury upon q safe
basis for the time. whether Congress does anything
not. 1t notifies foreign nations that the United
States has power as well as purpose. 1t unlocks
millions of gold which have been gathered in
preparation, brings directly several millions of
gold from Europe, and stimulates the anxiety of
foreign investors TO obtain American securities.
With such revolution in business suddenly
effected the customary records of the past week
and month are OF less value than usual. But there
have been signs of improvement in the iron manu-
facture Although the average of prices is nearly
per cent lower this week, and orders for wire
nails are stimulated by a decision TO nd vance the
price again March l, there is also more active
demand for plates and sheets. Southern competi-
ton lowers coke iron at Chicago and prevents ad-
vance at the East while sales of last years specu-
lators in the Pittsburg region still depress-
bessemer. The ere pool is expected 10 fix the
price Tor the year at 81 or possibly 81 so, and the
coke pool still reduces the output.
Speculation has raised copper to 1014c, with
sales OF 6,000.UO0 pounds, and tin to l31ac, and
lead to 3.l0c, with large exports OF Mexican The
boot and shoe manufacture does not gain as yet.
DclHS dDouI yer cent lower lot the Week.
Hides are depressed BY tight money, though in
light demand and about per cent lower for the
week. Sales OF wool have been 4500,000 pounds
against 5.192,o00 pounds last year, and with re-
ported reduction in clay worsteds and mixtures
the orders for other woollen goods still
usually delayed.
The cotton-mills continue generally active
Though talk of decreasing the production still
continues, pr cloths do not rise above 234 and
some goods tend lower. Speculation in wheat has
again lifted prices. The speculative market has
been largely influenced by rumors of injury to the
coming crop and by foreign advances. Corn has
been comparatively quiet. Cotton is practically
unchanged, receipts continuing to accord with a
yield of about 100000 bales for 1895. The
stock market has been growing stronger ali the
week until the sale of bonds. though yielding a
little on realizing. Railroad earnings in January
have been 1915 larger than last year but S.3 less
than in 1898. and the tonnage eastbound from
Chicago was in January nearly / per cent larger
than in 1893.
