groceries. not excepting sugar, were strong in
tone during the entire month and changes.
In dry goods there were two advances in cotton
goods. but in other lines steadiness the fea-
ture. Hog products. leather and hides ruled
steady. although leather and provisions firmer
at the close OF April than in the early part OF
the month. Hardware and iron are very firm.

Apparently hard luck pursues young
James G.. Blaine. II seems that he saved
some money while an army officer. and
after his return 10 Washington he began
TO speculate. Like many others, he was
successful during the boom in the market.
and few weeks ago he was $50. 600 to the
good. His broker advised him to draw out,
but the young man was anxious TO make
more. and the story goes that he spread his
$50. 600 in thin margins. and the next day
the big slump in the market came. and in
less than forty-eight hours IL wiped out his
whole little fortune. and to-day he is Just
where he was before he started specializing.

San Jose Scale ADroad.-Dr. Frank, one of the most noted scientists of Germany. recently presented a paper m the San Jose scale before the Ber- lin Horticultural Society. Tn view of the attitude taken by Germany and France toward American fruit fmpor- +atfons and the scale, his conclusions are of interest, says Country Gentle man. He says there are two species of scale in Germany which have been thought possibly identical with the San Jose insect, but that his investi- cations prove their dlstinctness. He quotes American entomologists as say- ing that the San Jose scale produces three broods yearly, each old female breeding about 600 young. Dr. Frank. however, has satisfied himself that only one generation of about 30 is pro- duced. He thinks it questionable whether the San Jose scale can live In Europe at all. We respectfully sug- gest that the Germans and Frenehmen send a discreet man apiece to America to see the San Jose scale, and learn something about it.

 paper Row.
 Park row has life by itself, and no one can write it. It must be lived, and lived for years. to be understood thoroughly. It is a life so varied and complex that it defies analysis and complete portraiture. Certain phases of 1t, caught here and there, may be shown to the outside world by clever people who have been in it and of it. and this has been done by Jesse Lynch Williau.a Tn The Stolen Story" The volume is a collection of stories of Park row, and takes it's name from the opening sketch. The stories are faith ful pictures, taken at random in the newspaper country, and are written with considerable skill Those who are of Park row will appreciate them, and those who are outside of the newspaper world will find in the book glimpses of a life which cannot fail to attract their interest and appeal to them from it's novelty if from nothing else MT. Williams weakest story Is the last one in the book, The Old Reporter a story which he evidently intended to make the strongest. He wrote 1t with view to rounding out the whole subject and showing just what is the effect upon character of the news gathering and news writing depicted in the previous stories. Ia this it is q failure. and succeeds only in being what the other stories are a sketch of certain phases of naWspa- per life "The Stolen Story" by Jesse Lynch Williams: Charles EogibneTs Sons.
