Di,isend. aad Prosperity.

The Daily stakeholder OF New York
has published a statement which shows
that dividends to the amount of S57.-
o0o, 600 were paid by difrerent railway
and manufacturing concerns. On De-
tober /, 1896, the same combines paid
S35, 900 600. The difference in tho earn
ings means that moro men were en-
ployed, more wages paid and that the
farmers had more supplies to furnish
to the army of wase-earners. 1t is a
case of prosperity all around.

Football tActGent II New NoBGs
Mr.. Frank w. Graves during his

galnr scenes. but the oldest one hap
pened. according to Mr.. Graves. In the
old days when the big college football
teams played their star games on the
New York polo grounds on Thanksgiv-
Ing day.
Princeton had played and Yale had
won.
Going up Broadway there walked q
dapper young Princeton man and 4
girl. Going down Broadway at the
same moment were eight victorious
young Yale men. They wero happy.
but silent. and they came straight
down the street until they spled the
Princeton pair.
Then stIl Ia Eiience. Moved by q sim
gle purpose. the YaiS men formed 4
circle. aud as the other pedestrians
made way for them they went around
and around the Princeton pair. At hrst
the young man was surprised. then an
gered. and At last be raised his cane
and made q dash for liberty. Whereup-
on the Yale men stopped and. without
q word. fell upon him as they do IN
football. quietly. heavily and quickly.
Then. strengthening themselves again
into line. the eight Ysiesians stopped
z moment and In concert raised their
hats to the thoroughly frightened girl
and silently resumed their march down
the street.-Saturday Evening Post.
