a.
The authors reading at the People $
last evening was heartily, even en-
thusiasticafiyTen by large audi
ence, who knew and loved Riley from
past acquaintance and who had been
introduced to Miss Bell and Mr. Fox
by their books and sought a closer
friendship. That the renewal of old
acquaintance and the making Of new
was enjoyable was evident from the
decided dislike of the audience to let
any one of the three escape when once
they had been caught on the stage.
Mr.. Riley, whose occasional visits TO
the Northwest have made him many
friends, was given the chief place on
the programme, having three of the
five numbers, and even then more was
asked Of him.
When James Whitcomb Riley began
his lecture platform experiences some
thing more than a dozen years ago.
he gave good dialect recitations of
Hoosier verse, but each year since has
r1pened both the man and the verse
until he is today, both in personality
and in his work, very close to the peo-
pies hearts, which means permanent
fame. There Is a sort of pathos In his
humor that shows how closely togeth-
er are tears and laughter, and his
HooSier dialect verse Is only equalled
by his poems of childhood There Is
only one Riley and once seen he is
not forgotten. The almost colorless
individual with nearly vacuouS ex-
preston Of countenance, Is decidedly
deceptive in appearance, for the face
lights up and the words drawl out In
the most entertaining sort of a way.
AS to e1ocution, it is not from the
schools, being decidedly "Rileyesque,"

THE testing of retail trade Is In

retarded by long continued mild

was yet expected. In spite OF unsea-
sonably warm weather, which greatly
binders retail dealings in winter
goods at all points east OF the plains,
the large number Of supplementary
orders, with urgent pressure for
quick delivery, make it clear that the
sales In many branches have exceed
ed the expectation of dealers, so that
replcnishment Of stocks is not yet
finished. Meanwhile wholesale trade
and orders to manufacture have been
smaller than when the rush was
greatest, bn. have nevertheless been
large for this stage, even in year OF
general prosperity, for the payments
through the principal clearing houses

larger than in tho same week OF 1892

Mr.. George had been gathering data
for his great work-"Progress and
Poverty" He had now the leisure
and the opportunity to complete and
produce the book, and lost no time In
getting II upon the market. To the
surprise OF the publishers, the success
of the work was almost unprecedented,
fourteen editions being exhausted in
four years-a thing unheard Of before
in the case Of a work on political
economy.
Since 1890 Mr.. George had been liv-
ing in New York. lecturing. writing
and building up a vast body Of believ-
ers and adherents. One Of his adver-
saries once said of him: Henry
George has no superior in polemics,"
and the single tax theory, carefully
built up, sustained with all Mr..
Georges power of argument and de-
duction, was maintained by him and
by his followers most earnestly and
skilfully.
In 1886 Mr.. George was nominated
by the united labor party for mayor
of New York, polling $4,000 votes,

LARGEST DRY DOCK ON THE AMERI.
CAN COAST,

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Nov. 1S97.-The
Directors of the Port Arthur Dock and
Canal Company at a meeting held
October 25th decided to build at Port
Arthur the largest dry dock in the
country. This dry dock is to be capa-
BILE Of holding vessels 500 feet long
and will be sufficiently large to con-
tain any two United States cruisers.
There is no dry dock on the gulf.
The nearest dry dock is one constructed
by the United States government at
Port Royal, S. c. There is dry dock
also on the Atlantic coast at Rio
Janerio, but it can only hold vessels
800 feet in length.
The building of this dry dock will
be a matter of more than national
Importance to shipping interests. So
far as its bearing upon naval matters
is concerned il will be remembered
that n short time ago the United States
battleship Indiana, sustained serious
injuries. No dry dock in the country
was large enough to accommodate the
indiana so she had to be taken to Hal
flax and the remarkable spectacle of
a United States naval vessel being
dry locked in a British harbor was
presented. Nobody knows what would
happen if war should suddenly be de-
clared and serious injury be sustained
by some of our large warships, which
might have to wait months before
proper repairs could be made in the
event of any injury to them, when by
the building of large dry dock proper
care could be taken of them and they
could be put in fit condition in a very
