stocks enjoyed the benefit of strong

former rose over a point, and the latter
about as much. The early strength was
largely confined to the leading railroad
stocks, but became general after the
publication of the hank statement on

FUNNY ANSWER BY CHILDREN
PHILADELPHIA Record.)

The examinations in the public schools
this month have been, as usual produc-
tive of Il crop of funny answers to ques
tions in the various lines of study.
Among the funny responses were three
made by young scholars who were being
examined in geography. The question
was: Describe savage One little
boy wrote that "a savage is person
who wears no clothes except under
clothes:' another's answer was: The
savage is black and wears only rag
while the third response was: A
savage doesn't wear anything except
hair and feather stuck in it, A class
that was being examined in anatomy
was asked to describe Il body. There
were various laughable answers submit

But you take care of ten thousands tons,
Sky-hooting through the brine.

New York, July 1.-The opening cot

to 8 points higher on generally bullish
news from all quarters. The leading
bull influence was the report, later
verified, that instead of being exagger

by the protracted and record breaking
rain storms of the past three days had
been very much underestimate.
Coupled with this information was
firm set of English cables and a gloomy
crop statement by the Chronicle.
Shorts were in an uneasy frame of
mind as a result of the adverse news
from the South and covered freely
where opportunity offered. Speculation
was seriously retarded by the proximity
of the holiday season. Bulls and out

assume new responsibilities. After the
