The City of Manila

The city Of Manila isa typical Eastern
metropolis. 1t is on the east side of q
wide bay, which furnishes tolerable
anchorage, but not a secure place OF
refuge for shipping. The city itself is'
as is most Eastern centers OF trade,
divided into new and old town, the
latter being fortified with walls in
medieval style, and containing ware
houses, storehouses, Offices and an enor
NOUS native population, while the new
town, much better built, with ediice
more modern in style and construction,
lies without the walls. A small stream
which during the rainy season becomes a
mighty torrent, runs through the heart
of the town and divides the two sections.
The old town has narrow streets, badly
paved, reasonably filthy, as well provided
with varieties of odors as Coleridge
found the city OF Cologne, teeming with
East Indians OF everv age, color and
previous condition OF dirtinese, whose
principal occupation seems to be keep
ing out OF the sun. smoking cigarettes
and chewing betel nut Why they
should smoke under blazing sun, with
steamy heat rising from every square
foot of the ground on which they tread,
is mystery, but, probably, on the idea
that they are already as not as they can
become, they puff necessarily on their
cigarette and take life as easily as the
climate will permit. In the intervals Of
smoking they load and unload the
vessels, most of the native population
finding its employment about the ship
ing, while those not thus engaged have
all the occupation thew want at their
homes, in the manufacture of the coarse
goods known as Manila bagging or sack
ing and in the making OF cigars, o.
which many millions are annually ex-
ported to China and India Elk.

About Boots and Shoes

III boot or shoe is too tight in any one
particular place, dip a cloth in very hot
water and lay it On the uncomfortable
spot. This will cause the leather to ex-
pand, and to adapt itself to the shape OF
the foot. 1t is said that shoes which
draw" the feet may be made perfectly
comfortable by pouring water into them;
this, If allowed to remain IN the shoe
for few minutes, will take all the neu-
trail heat from the leather. Soles cut
from several thicknesses OF brown paper
and renewed every day, are wonderful
ly soothing TO the feet. For softening
shoes that are hard and thick, castor
oil is one OF the best possible things.
1t will keep the leather in excellent
condition, and make the shoes last
nearly twice as long as the ordinary
way,

Two Cases to Be Carried to Courts for
Settlement.

The question Of fixing assessments on the
stock OF building and loan associations in
this city is to be determined by the courts
Steps looking to this action were taken by
the County Board of Review yesterday,
when it summoned the representatives of
two associations before it. John r. Welch
represented the Celtic Loan and Savings
Association and Charles A. Bookwalter APP
peared for the Indiana Society for Savings
Both men declined to turn over the books
of their respective associations, and refused
to give a list of their stockholders Mr.
WEIGH testified that the capital stock of the
Celtic association is 81, 100000, of which
amount 100000 is paid up. The Indiana So
ciety for Savings has $1,5O0OO0 Of capital
stock, of which $404, 032.61 is paid-up, pre-
paid and running stock. Mr.. Bookwalter
offered to give the board the amount of
stock held by any person the board should
inquire about, but he declined to furnish a
list of the holdings of all the stockholders
The board then fixed the assessment of the
Indiana Society for Savings al S4O4, O32 81
The assessment of the Celtic Loan and
Savings Association was fixed at 5000 000
1t is understood the secretaries of these
associations will appeal to the courts. Mr.
BoOkwalter said that test case would re-
suit from the proceedings and it would be
seen whether an attorney general is bigger
than legislature
The instructions laid down by the State
Tax Board for the assessment of building
and loan associations require the county
board to assess the paid-up, prepaid and
running stock of the associations.

LOCAL GRAIN AND PRODUCE.
Trade Rather Quiet, with Prices
Firmer on Most Articles

AS usual following holiday, business yester-
day little off, but the indications point to
July being a much better business month this
year than was July, 1897. There is more money
in the country and retail merchants are selling
more goods, which in turn enables wholesale
men to sell more goods. Travelling men without
exception speak of the outlook as being unusually
promising for July. In prices yesterday there
important changes. Sugar is very firm
and prices likely to advance, but other staple
groceries rule steady and firm. On Commission
row fair volume Of business was transacted.
The supply of fruits was not so large and better
prices were realized on some. Berries continue
in abundant supply. huckleberries now being on
the list. Old potatoes about off the market
and new potatoes are meeting with good sale at
steady prices. Poultry is weaker. eggs firm and
butter weak at quotations.
The local grain market was quiet and receipts
light The Cerealine mills unable to get the
supply needed readily SO light the receipts OF
corn. Prices yesterday ruled as follows as fur
nished by the secretary OF the Board of Trade:
