SERMON

A large company of the friends OF
the Normal gathered at the Assem-
bly, on Wednesday morning to witness
the annual exercises of the model
grades. They were full of sprightli-
ness and charm, and provoked great
deal Of enthusiastic comment. In
many respects the performances Of
the little people are more agreeable
to the general public than the efforts
of maturer students, and the exhib-
itions of the model grades at the Nor
NAL never fail of interest.
On Sunday morning, the 18th, the
classes assem- bled at the Methodist
church to listen to an earnest address
by Rev. Snodgrass on the significant
text Ye are called to be Saints"
The service was one of unusual in
spiration.
The Alumni Banquet at the Nor
NAL Gymnasium attracted upwards
of 100 guests. The floral decorations
and table service were the most
beautiful and elaborate that the
Alumni Banquets have yet offered.
Trinity Guild were the caterers.
The ball at the Opera hall was a
distinct SUCCESS

All who attended the encampment
at West Superior last week vote it a
great success. The city at the head
of the lakes was out to make a name
for herself and she did it, The com
rades OF the G. A. r., the ladies Of
the w. r. c., the Sons Of Veterans,
the ladies Of the G. A. r., and the
veterans of the Spanish-American
war were all out in force, and the
keys Of the city were delivered into
their keeping without reserve. The
whole city was in holiday attire. The
parade was one Of the finest in the
history of the G.. A. r. The banquet,
the excursions, in fact the whole af-
fair was one great fete. River Falls
people were very much in evidence in
at least three of the organizations.
The Sons of Veterans elected J. W. T..
Ames Division Commander for the
coming year, thus making this city
the state headquarters for that time.

Philip Glass, that just as the senior
was always abstract, even so the Ele-
mentary was always concrete. They
then quickly brought on the stage,
to the accompaniment of vocal m sic,
series Of concrete pictures taken
from life) representing scenes from
the momentous careers of the depart
ing seniors. The seniors use Of
trigonometry in measuring the height
of the hen-coop easily raised a laugh,
his geologizing, his hanging of May
baskets and his fishing sensibly in
creased it, and his serenadiDg was so
touching that the Assembly became
fairly vocal with laughter and APP
plause. But the Elementary was still
on the war path and kept his elder
brother Ia the tolls. His most I'M
kindest cut was yet to follow. Fear
ing lest the abstract profundities of
the senior orations, to be given on the
morrow, should fail to touch the aver
age mind, the class presented final
series of living pictures In which they
enlightened the audience very clearly
as to what the graduates would say,
gave away the whole story, and left
to the senior only the idle expedient
of words. A little kindergarten fro
lie concluded the pictures, song was
sung, and the Elemen taries bade
their listeners a kind good afternoon.

| ceipts, caused a rally which carried
May to 65ac. The close was firm,
May Ac under yesterday at 65k@659sc.
Trade during the greater part Of the
session wal rather quiet to-day.
New York reported 26 loads tasen
for export. Clearances were 100000
bushels, all of it in flour. Primary
receipts were $50, 900 bushels, Compared
with Z 900 bushels last year. Mime
apolis and Duluth reported 4SO cars,
against 4S2 last week and 492 a year
ago.. Local receipts were % cars, none
of contract grade.
The corn market, after a period OF
depression, turned strong. The heavl-
ness of wheat was felt early, but later
covering by shorts caused a sharp re-
action. Cables were higher, country
offerings light and the provisions
strength was felt. Local receipts were
473 cars. Trade was rather quiet and
the cash business about s 5000 bushels.
Buying by interests which have re-
Gently been supposed to be taking
profits, inaugurated the sharp rally
which stopped only with the end OF
the session. May ranged from 36%Q
36Ic to 37%c, and closed Bc up at
37A @37Nc.
The trade in oats was small and
such firmness as the markets showed
in sympathy with corn. Some May was
sold early, but it was taken back when
corn began to rise. Local receipts
were pa cars. May ranged from 23Bc
to 24@241sc, and closed a shade i'm
proved at 24@24bc.
The provisions market was strong
and generally active, lending some OF
it's strength to the grain markets. Re
ceipts of hogs under the estimate, high
err prices at the yards, better cables
and a sharp general cash demand, to-
gether with covering by shorts, were
influences. The small stocks also con-
tributed to the support, bringing in
considerable outside trade. May pork
ranged from $11.70 to S11.S0, and closed
Th@2oc OVER yesterday at s11.SO;
May lard from $6.17h to $6.27h, clos
ing 1Oc up at $6.25@6.27k; and May
ribs from $6.25@6.27R to $685., with
the close 1Oc improved at s6.321@ 6.35.
Estimated receipts tomorrow:

NEW YORK, March 23.-R. @. Dunn
a. Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade to-
morrow will say:
lr its first week of operation the new
monetary bill has given satisfaction at
the treasury and to the banks. APP
plications for nev two per cents have
exceeded $106, 900, 900 and the net in
crease in bank circulation Is already
ever $10,0 00, 900. AS the rate at which
circulation can be issued is linn
tied, except for banks which gave or
ders in advance of the passage OF he
bill and the issues at first are largely
for the increase of notes to the par
value of bonds deposited little can yet
be inferred regarding the other in
crease through applications indicate
that it will be large for interior banks.
the release of millions employed IL
preparation for action under the new
measure has caused in bank returns
considerable changes which are NOM
inal rather than real and the money
mrakets are undisturbed.
The reported settlement of the Car
negie-Frick controversy is OF the
greatest importance to the iron and
steel industry. As yet the tendency
toward reaction of prices Aontinues,
though in the Pittsburg region, Besse-
mer and basic pig are strong. But
eastern Bessemer and grey forge and
Southern pig are sold there at prices
below those governing in larger trans
actions, and it is only the demand for
steel making iron which appears to
exceed the supply. Eastern markets
are weaker, with reduction of 81 per
ton at Philadelphia in some grades.
Finished products are generally I'M
changed though sheets rise at Chicago
with the coming combination, while
plates sink lower at Pittsburg and to
the lowest point since April 5th, 1893,
at Philadelphia.
The advance in wheat which follow
ed statements of the quantity in farm
ers' hands has not been maintained
and the decline the past week has
been 13sc, corn also yielding about Zee.
Atlantic exports were 1,753,028 bushels
for the week and for three weeks only
4,762,482 against S~,730,374 last year.
Receipts at western points in three
weeks have been II, 1871 ,231 against TO-
1909 last year. Meanwhile Pacific
exports are heavy and in three weeks
have been 3,183,153 bushels against
1,656,277 last year. The foreign de-
mand for corr still lessons, though

The markets here were idle to-day

ing exception being Americans, which
monopolized attention. London en-
gage din profit taking, but the buying
was always fighting the decline. The
market closed at the lowest, but oper-
ators had secured profits and were
anxious to buy again. Accordingly,
when New York came strong in the
street there was a scene of considerable
excitement and extra police were nee
essary to keep a foot path clear. The
finish was buoyant. Favorites were
Baltimore & Ohio, Atchison and Nor
folk & Western. In the last mention
