shops for the sake OF the insurance

OF the Board of Trade shows that
during the past year her imports in
creased by $l25, 588.3S5, and her ex-
ports by $50, 160,965. An increase Of
nearly $20O,000,000 in the volume Of

Superintendent Rowell was driv-

by the ornamental colt which looks
like an offspring Of his famous mule.
The Minister of Finance was squan-
dering his money in riding home in
hack at the same time. The colt
stopped outside Magoon's Office evil
IDENTIFY meditating whether to take
the Hagey Cure or explain the
"blue stone scandal" and during his
meditations he backed his North
east end into Mr.. Damon's hack.
The driver whipped the colt and
Mr.. Damon poked him with his
umbrella as hard as he pokes his
colleagues when they want money
to reimburse police judges or pay
for junketing trips, And the more,
they whipped and poked the farther
into the hack went the colt. Finally
the serious situation was called to
the attention of Mr.. Rowell who
succeeded in rescuing the Minister
and the colt.
But none OF them will ever forget
the freezing, clammy glare Of Mr.
Dole's grand vizier, when he drove
off, leaving the ostreperous beasts
behind
The ministerial serenity and thu
