offerings at a good advance over yesterdays
final figures. The news of the day was gen
orally bullish in tone.
There is really nothing new in the position
Of wheat, it is inherently strong and nothing
can be added that is not generally known:
Speculative values may be pushed beyond
the limit now and then and reactions fol-
low, but the trend is undoubtedly upward.
The domestic news was mostly bulllsh IN
character. There was some pointing to the
was no force in it for the reason that ship
ments were equally large in the total. The
new spring wheat continues to grade poorly,
but shows some signs of Improvement today.
This is not strange, however, except to the
superficial observer.

well but were a little more difficult to sell than
yesterday. AT u o'clock the market appeared
to be weak, but in less than 10 minutes 1t

ing rather sensational cables received from

who says that for some time past Mr..
Brown had been gradually sinking. she
thought, through neglect ard an insult
ficiency of food. Yesterday afternoon she
carried him bowl Of soup, and noticed
at that time that he seemed weaker than
usual.
At the hour ertioned this morning Mrs.
O'Leary became apprehensive for mis- well
fare, and, notifying the officers mentioned,
they went to his room, only to find him
dead. From all appearances he had been
dead for several hours. The coroner was
notified at once, and after he has made
an examination the body will be turned
over to Frank Giers Sons, undertakes,
for burial. The ceremony will take place
tomorrow afternoon at o'clock from the
undertakers' establishment, and the inter-

William V. Smith and Edward T. Brooks,
seamen on the schooner Young Brothers,
from Kennebec, Me-, lying at the wharf
of the Great Falls Ice Company, were
arrested yesterday and charged under the
maritime laws with INSTRUMENTATION. 1t IS
said the captain of the boat, George HI.
Snow, decided to tar the rigging while the
boat was in port, and he ordered the two
seanien to do the work. They were will
ing to do this, but wanted the use OF
brushes instead of taking their hands to
tar the ropes. The captain refused to fur
nish brushes, and hence the charge.

Finding the estimated revenues to be
greater than was expected when the first
draft of the estimates for the support of
the District during the next fiscal year was
made, the Commissioners have increased
them in several instances.
An increase of 81 500 has been added in
the estimate for the relief of the poor
bringing the appropriation demanded up to
$50
Five thousand dollars additional is asked
for improving the pavements around reser-
vations, making total estimated appro-
priation of $4,000.
The salary of the health officer is in
creased by 5000.
The street schedule is augmented 500, 600
making a total sum to be expended upon
the improvement Of streets $S00,OO0
No definite sum is asked for water me-
ters. although Capt. Burr urges their intro
duct:on at the expense Of the District. He
recommends, however, a change in the
phraseology of the language for the ex-
tension of the high service so as to permit
of an expenditure for water meters. He
thinks there will be between $4,000 and

Danger to Animals.

Based upon a letter from w. NJ. Gait &
Co. and Thomas w. Smith concerning the
slippery condition of 1st street just north
of Indiana avenue, which is a cause Of
great injury to almost all the horses driven
over 1t. the Humane Society has called the
attention of TIE Commissioners to the mat
ter and requested that the street be kept
so clean as MT to endanger the limbs and
lives of animals.
The superintendent of street cleaning, to
whom the letter was referred, states the
street Is swept three times per week; that
the fault is in the steep grade at that
point, and not the result Of neglect upon
the part of the department.

The Points of Difference.


The work of the open and Institutional
Church League differs from that under
the old methods, it is declared, in that
while the latter was intensely religious the
other is eminently practical and being
SO Is rapidly superseding the former plans
The movement is being prosecuted for
the especial purpose of awakening an in
terest in the Christian religion among
those who work for living in the great
centers of population.
Many working people, it is conceded
have few orsn facilities for physical de-
Veiopment or for mental improvement, and
about the only places open to them, it is
alleged, are the saloons or worse resorts
There is no place except the streets for
the children to play, and many grow up
ignorant and depraved. To furnish many
OF the facilities for development and i'm
provement is the object of the open and
Institutional Church League
By common consent Grace Baptist
Church. Philadelphia. of which Rev. Dr.
Russell Conwell is pastor. is accorded the
foremost place among the open and in
stitutional churches. Here the work is
principally educational. The activities in
c1ude gymnasiums, swimming. baths clubs
a hospital and other adjuncts. but the
Temple College occupies more of the
time, energy and thought of the pastor
than all the other enterprises combined. Its
diplomas, it is said, are as much valued
by the recipients as are those conferred
by any of the more pretentious and older
institutions OF learning.
