DRY GOODS.

There has been practically no change in
the dry goods trade either from the week
before last or last week. The snow block
ade has caused in some quarters a retard-
ment Of others, and this condition was nat
urally to be expected. The whole tone q
the market, however. has been favorable
and highly encouraging. There is no doubt
that the marketing of wheat, even at pres
ent prices, in the up-country districts, will
have an effect upon the jobbing interests
even before the Christmas holidays arrive
and certainly before the spring season trade
fully opens. The reports from dry goods
houses generally to the effect that COL
lections are more liberal than could be ex-
pected. The sorting orders are rather free
There is only fair demand for heavy win
ter wear, and a somewhat holding up In
these lines Is attributed to the fact that with
the large yield and high prices during 1897
good many people provided themselves
through the country stores with luxuries
Of this sort calculated to hold over. Taking
1t altogether. however, no complaint exists
in the dry goods district in the matter of
the run Of business and the general outlook

HARDWARE.

Business in the hardware line has been
quite abbreviated in the way of orders The
season is regarded as little bit over for
general lines of light goods. but the drafts

themselves apparent. particularly in the

is not impossible that after the navigation
season closes an advance may appear in
some OF the heavier lines. which are usually
carried on vessels from Cleveland and Erie
over the lakes for distribution by rail, after
the ice closes in the ports at Duluth and

BOOTS AND SHOES

The cold weather has had the effect of I'm
proving the boot and shoe trade While the
good Indian summer weather of November
continued the Northwestern farmer didn't
take much account of what he should put
upon his own feet or those OF his family.
But the blizzard touched him on his tender
points, as we'll as on the tender points OF
some others who could possibly command his
attention to their tender points, IL he himself
was not disposed to otherwise recognize the
demand upon him. During the autumn sea-
son collections are always little slow In this
line OF trade. Many supplies are distributed
by local dealers pending the sales of wheat.
These sales have been unusually sluggish this
year on account of the low prices of wheat;
and the fact that last year producers secured
by their marketing Of the cereal a pretty fair
margin and were indlsposed to be hurried in
the sale Of the crop of 1898 has been mani
fest in the scarcity of orders in certain d.

A MASTERPIECE
WAS THE BAcCAlAUREATE AD-
DRESS OF REV. r. j. SMITH.

A Magnificent Audience of Kokoma's
Brightest and Best People Greet tho
Graduating Glass of '9S.
Rev. Ralph j. Smith preached the bac-
calaureate sermon to the senior class at
Grace church Sunday night, the beauti-
full edifice being crouded. The address
was an able one and laid stress upon
making the most of present OppOrtuni-
ties as well as to extract happiness from
life. Self-help, self-reliance, self-cOn-
troll and self-culture are all, he said, es-
sential to success. Rev. Smith spoke in
his usual entertaining and instructive
manner
1t was fullydemonstrated Sunday night
that KokOma has within her corporate
limits all the elements of strength in all
the departments of life. 1t was further
demonstrated that there was no need Of
looking elsewhere for public speaker to
meet the demands of any OccusiOn, or to
even deliver baccalaureate address be-
fore graduating class of bright young
people who for nine month have been in
touch with the highest fountains of intel
lectuality. On this occasion, our own be-
loved pastor, Rev. Ralph j. Smith of the
Congregational Church, was the favored
speaker chosen, and it is needless to add
that he met the fullest expectations Of
his friends in the delivery of masterly
address. In the absence of the manu-
script, the News will not at this time at
tempt TO slaughter good address by even
attempting to epitOmize. From start to
finish, Rev. Smith carried his magnificent
audience through the green valleys Of rea-
son and over the giddy heights lOf pure
intellectually. Those who sat on the
platform with him at Grace church and
assisted in the preliminaries were Revs
T. T. Gregg, Sylvester Newlin, E. G
Sh0use, W.. S. Wilson and E. A. Allen
The class, twenty-fOur in number, to,
gether with Supt. Woody and the teach
ers Of the high school, occupied reserved
seats Immediately to the left and in front
of the pulpit. The text for the address
was taken from Job 32, verse Z, which
