DUN'S REVIEW OF TRADE.

New York. January OR. G. Dun
L Co. 5 weekly review Of trade to-day
will say:
January has been 4 month Of disap-
pointment, but Of real gain. Nearly
everybody had promised himself a land
of milk and honey after New Years. and
the slow progress looks like standing
still to men in such a state Of mind.
Moreover. there are mUititudes
throughout the country who have been
taking large ventures II advance Of or
apart from their regular business, be-
cause they expected a rise in prices.
But prices fail as yet TO bring them
profit Wheat has declined severely.
cotton has scarcely risen enough 10
pay brokerage. wool holds steady, in
spite of enormous buying, wooden goods
hardly change in price iron and its
products decline. leather is sluggish,
hides are lower. some shoe manufac-
turers accept a shade lower prices, the
average of railroad stocks is slightly
lower than it was December 81, and the
advance in trust stocks has been small.
To traders in such properties the month
has been disappointing.
Iron and steel show little gain pro-
duction having increased so heavily be
fore. and the gradual enlargement Of
demand for finished products has not
oveytakcn that increase. Lower prices
result for Passemer pig. Grey Forge,
and for southern iron at Chicago, for
angle and Tor cut nails. and the aver
age Of all quotations is the lowest
since early last year. For sheets there
is active demand, and better also Tor
bars. on account Of much car building.
Tin and copper are shade stronger but
competition causes sales Of tin plates
10 to II cents below agreed prices.
Failures for the week have been 81
in the United States, against 4ci last
year. and 81 in Canada, against 70 last
wear

: Boiler Explosion at Fairmont in Which

Special TO the Register.
FAIRMONT. ". VA. January 29.-At
noon to-day people were disturbed by the
explosion OF the boiler in the planning
mill of y. c. Dickcrson & Co. on Jackson
street. which occurred about 1926.
The planning mill was badly damaged,
the engine house being totally destroyed
and the remainder Of the building dam
aged. Across the street was house oc-
cupied by Jonas Seesc and his family. who
had just got up from the table, when a
big piece Of boiler came through the win
dow. completely demolshing it and land
ing on the table. All Of the family but
one had gone to the back of the house.
This one was i'm the next room facing the
street. and narrowly escaped being injur-
cd by some Of the flying fragments.
THE boiler went up in the air. said n
passer by, "and turned over but once.
falling on the sidewalk on The opposite
side of the street and bouncing up against
the residences Of Mr.. Seese and Mr. Cord
ray"
Two or three wagons were standing
across the street waiting for repairs.
They were demolished.
The street was much frequen,od. but
no one was injured.
The explosion was felt all over town.
The mill was fully insured.

SHE KNEW HER NAME.

Allentown call.
She occupied the seat directly in
front Of me on a Central railroad Of
New Jersey train from New York the
other night. She was a plump girl,
with auburn hair and hazel eyes. She
was evidently a girl employed in New
Nork-perhaps a typewriter. Her name
is Elizabeth How do | know? Well,
/ didn't ask her. | never saw her be-
fore. no one called her by name, and
she had nothing about her that served
to tell me that her name is Elizabeth.
Yet her name is Elizabeth
l am net the seventh son Of sew
cnth son. neither do possess the power
of second sight. But I found out that
the name of the plump. rOsy-cheeked
Young miss in the seat in front of me
is Elizabeth. Before We had gone many
miles out Of Jersey City the sand
man" began to play havoc with Eliza
beth. Her eyes became heavy and
every few seconds her head would drop.
Before we had crossed Newark bay
Elizabeth was sound asleep. The train
sped on and when the speed was slack
ened the brakeman opened the door
and shouted: Elizabeth, Elizabeth,
Liz-beth." With the first word the
girl began to move. When the brake
man shouted "E-lizabeth.' the eyes
were half opened and when he finally
called "Liz-beth," she rubbed her eyes
and said Yes papa, III get up.
Through the cars ran the sound Of
suppressed laughter; hut the girl had
fallen asleep AGAIN. and when the train
stopped and the brakeman again called
out elizabeth Elizabeth the plump
girl jumped up ard said: All right,
I'm coming"
This was TOO much for the hairbrain-
ed dude across the aisle. and he began
