gain by intelligent discussion of public ques-
tions. carried on in an organization like
yours, not from standpoint OF partisan
ship, but of good citizenship.
Not only are we interested in these funda-
mental elements which constitute national
strength, but have a deep interest in the
material development Of the country. No
subject can more engage our attention than
| the promotion of trade and commerce at home
and abroad. Domestic conditions are sure to
be improved by larger exchanges with the
ing out with good results. Our surplus prod
ucts Of agriculture and manufacture are
finding foreign market, and in the latter
case to degree which would not have been
believed possible a quarter of g. century ago.
We have made wonderful progress in this
direction, and have only just begun. Our
of the world, and 1 hope the time may not
be far distant when our ships, under the
stars and stripes, will be on every sea where
commerce is carried and the wants of man
kind to be supplied.
Commerce is a teacher. 1t gives mankind
knowledge Of one another Reciprocity OF
trade promotes reciprocity of friendship. Good
trade insures good will. The heart as well
as the mind contributes directly to the prog
ress Of mankind, and wherever we secure
just and fair commercial relations with 9TH
er nations we are sure to have friendly po-
litcal relations with them. Abatng none of
our interest in the home market, let us move
steadily out to new fields and increase the de-
mand for our products in foreign markets.
1t should be our settled purpose to open
trade wherever we can, making our ships
and commerce messengers Of peace and amity.
The consular service Of the government
should be closely scrutiniZed and carefully
differed, and we should have at every COM
mercial port of the world a sensible and
practical American. who, while discharging
all his other duties with honor to the gov
ernment, will not omit in every proper way
to promote American exchanges and encourage
reciprocal trade.
Finally if we are entering upon an era
DrOSDerity believe
fervently hope, remembering our recent panic
and financial experiences, we should strength
en- the weak places in our financial system
and remove it forever from ambiguity and
doubt.
The presidents address was listened to

DOUBLE TRAGEDY.
Two Deaths the Result of an At
tempted Robbery.

AURORA, Ill, Oct. 3O.-A remarkable
double tragedy has taken place here
Peter Braun and his brother Harry
conduct a small grocery store on the
outskirts of Aurora. The store is in
the same yard as their dwelling. Be
tween the two buildings stands lilac
bush. At 10 o'clock last night the
Braun brothers closed their store and
started for the house. As they passed
the lilac bush two masked men con-
fronted them with drawn revolvers
Peter, the older brother attacked one
robber, and was greeted by four pistol
shots. Every bullet hit and the grocer
fell dead almost upon his own doorstep.
Harry Braun fled from the robbers.
The man who did the shooting saw q
figure in the darkness and gave it a
shot, which penetrated the brain of the
human target. But the robber had
made a terrible mistake. The second
dead man proved to be his fellow high
wayman. The murderer went to the
home of Jacob Rink, half a mile dis
tant, where he stole horse and
wagon. The rig was found at Batavia.

An apparatus by which an engineer
may test or determine the quality and
adoption Of the coal he receives is de-
scribed in the Boston Journal of Com
merce. The test is not intended to be an
analysis, but principally to show the
amount of fixed carbon in the coal and
the percentage of ash. AS each carload
is received samples are taken from 90 or
more parts of the car, thoroughly mixed
and quartered, each quarter being also
mixed and quartered until the sample is
obtained. This sample is then carefully
weighed, the volatile matter driven off,
weighed again, and the carbon consumed,
and the ash weighed. This estimate is
important in guarding against the use
of coal having an undue percentage of
ash. The various Goals differ i'll the per-
centage of ash which they contain, some
Cumberland Goals having from IL to IA
per cent of ash, while a good New river
will have as low as 3 OF 4 per cent.
Thus, though the Goals may look alike
to the average engineer, the heat value
characterizing them is 10 per ce1k great
er in n description than the other,
and, ascertaining this, an important
saving in the cost of fuel may result.

Stone Formations on Which Were Found

Stone Formations on Which Were Found
Some Wonderful Pictures.
Pliny, u well known writer of about
the time of Christ, mentions having
seen an agate the lines and markings of
which formed q perfect picture of Apollo
and the nine muses. Pliny says that the
little children recognized it on sight.
In this wonderful patural picture, as
we'll as the artificial drawings, Apollo
was represented seated in the midst Of
the muses., harp in hand.
Majolus, another writer of high stand
ing, saw an agate in the collection of u
jeweler ut Venice which, when polish
ed, showed a perfect picture of shep-
herd with a crook in hand and cloak
thrown loosely over his shoulders.
In the church of st. John, at Pisa,
Italy, there is a piece of stone heavily
marked with red, blue and yellow spar,
the lines representing all old man with
heavy white beard, with Il bell in his
hand, seated beside a small stream. To
the worshipers at st. JohnNi is known
as the st. Anthony stone, the picture
upon it being q perfect likeness of that
saint, even to the minor details of tunic
and bell.
In 1905 some quarrymen in Italy
burst open n slab of marble, both sides
of which contained an image of st. John
the Baptist covered with the skin of II
camel. Everything was true to nature

Of the wonderful relic the writer's au-
thority fails to state. 1t only adds that
the miraculous production is now in the
temple of st. Sophia at Constantinople.
Directly after the great Johnstown
flood D. S. Wingrove, superintendent of
the marble yard at the ~penitentiary at
Baltimore, found a slab of marble with
lines and veins which made a perfect
picture of the fated city of Johnstown
and the surrounding country. The sky
is plainly marked, as are also the hills
and mountains surrounding the town.
Piles upon piles Of ruins are marked,
with an occasional steeple or topping
wall overhanging the scene Of awful de-
struc.ion. Taken all in all, the scien-
lists consider it one of the most wonder

EVE EXTERNALLY CONFUSED.
An Ohio Picture of Human Nature With
Worldwide Point.

As a Cedar motor and trailer approach
ed Wilson avenue recently a woman was
noticed lodging about the middle of the
street. She was evidently hesitating as
to which way to go, but finally crossed
to the south track and stood there.
Gross over to the other side!' roared
q group of men on the corner.
Look out for the CARP screamed a
woman on the sidewalk.
The motorman changed his bell and
shouted, and the woman lodged cut of
harms way. Then, as the train slowed
down, she trotted alongside Of the trail
er.
Here, where are you?" shouted the
conductor.
In answer to the appeal the woman
suddenly appeared around the rear of
the trailer and put one foot on the step.
Then she changed her mind and trotted
to the front end of the ear. >Here she
climbed up and came in the front door.
The conductor snapped the bell. and the
train started suddenly, tumbling the
newcomer on to a fat man. AS she
Strengthened up she said:
"This car is going to Fairmount
street, isn't it,"
"No, ma'am," replied the conductor,
"it's going right the other way"
"There. l just thought it WASH cried
the woman. but you all yelled at me
30 that 1 got confused. 1 don't want to
go on this car. Let me off"
So the conductor let her off at the
