Sharp Falling or in Business Failures
Noted.
New YORK, May 25.-Bradstreets
says The reactionary tendency in
prices, shrinkage in railroad earnings,
the falling off in bank clearings, and the
fact that the present is the between sea-
ons period, include the more conspicu-
Gus features of the general business sit
uation. On the other hand, business
failures have fallen off sharply. Gen
eral trade through the Central West has
not met anticipations. Clothing orders
have dropped off two weeks earlier than
usual at Chicago, and the run of orders
for dry goods there is light. Detroit aid
Milwaukee business interests are
Suffering From Strikes.
The most favorable report comes from
Kansas City, where the movements CT
merchandise continues relatively quite
active mercantile collections are fair
and trade prospects We're never better.
Improvement is also noted on the Pa
cific coast, due to the weather, which
has rendered the crop outlook more
favorable, and stimulated purchases in
staple lines. The business failures
throughout the United States this week
were 2l6, as compared with 265 last
week.

The Homo Of the ouincys In Quincy.


There will be very general gratifica-
tion in the authoritative denial of the
rumor that the old homestead of the
Quincys, in Quincy, Mass, must give
way before the march of progress. It
still remains in the Quincy family, and
will be sacredly guarded from the de-
stroyer's hand many year to come.
This venerable landmark, situated
some 100 yards back from Hancock
street, dates back to colonial days, when
the Adamses and the Quincys kept
'open house, for all the dignitaries Of
those early times. Here Washington
and Lafayette, successive governors of
Massachusetts, Boston's mayors and
prominent national, state and municipal
leaders were often made welcome Here
were born and reared two of Boston s
distinguished mayors, the grandfather
and great-grandfather of the present
mayor, who was himself born in the
only less famous Quincy mansion, which
stands near by here, too, in later days
were entertained right royalty illustri-
GUS authors and statesmen, noted di-
vines, scholars and educators. Ralph
Waldo Emerson, E. P. Whipple, James
T. Field, Horace Mann and scores of
their contemporaries enjoyed its hospi-
tally. Boston Herald.

The Late william woodward.

William Woodward Of Baltimore,
who recently died in that city. was
nearly SO years old and was for many
years one of the most prominent and
widely known citizens of the Maryland
metropolis. He was an influential Epis-
copalian, and was connected, as teacher
and superintendent, with the Sunday
school of St Peters Episcopal church,
Baltimore, from 1919 until one year ago,
period of rs years. In length of serv-
ice this record is thought to be unsur-
passed. He cast his vote for president
for John Quincy Adams in 1924 and
voted at every national election since.
During the war he was a supporter of
the federal cause and since the war
eoted the Republican ticket.

Jolly Asiatic Merchants.

A large number of the merchants en-
gagged in trade gave me one day sump~
tuous feast in fruit garden a short dis
tance outside Yarkand. Few people
know the way to enjoy life and make
themselves comfortable better than
these merchants. We first of all sat
about under the shade of the trees, while
huge punches of grapes and delicious
melons and peaches were freshly plucked
and brought to rs to eat Then dinner
was announced, and after water for
washing the hands had been passed
round, we set to eat dish after dish of
''pillaos'' and stews, all beautifully
cooked, and we ended up with q pud-
ding made of whipped egg and sugar
and some other ingredients, which it
would be hard TO beat anywhere. All
the time the merchants were chatting
away among themselves and were as
gay and talkative as Frenchmen. You
could scarcely wish for better company
or more genial hosts.
On the way home we had races, each
merchant trying to make out that his
own horse q Us better than the others.
These men arc q curious mixture of
eastern gravity and politeness and boy
ISL spirits and fun. They will come to
call on you and talk away with the
greatest solemnity and Difference. You
meet them next day out for a burst of
enjoyment, and every sign of gravity is
thrown away and they are as free and
natural and full of life as children
