behind the counter. The big clock
licked of another hour, and the old
man addressed the clerk again:
II say believe I'll remain"
"You have my permission, sir"
When the hands on the dial pointed
to IL, the old fellow, who was SO
sleepy he hardly knew where he was

"By the eternal. I say l believe I'll
remain"
Again the clerk assured him of his
permission, but the situation was be-
coming critical, and something had to
be done.
"When you are ready to retire." said
the clerk, "you can get your key at
this desk.'
"Retire," said the exasperated guest.

snnforl Dodge in.aue v...a,s..

The Lead Call has the following to
say of the presentation of Quo Vadis
at that place:
"When has the sermon been preached
in this city that caused the tears and
produced the religious enthusiasm
produced by the rendition of "Quo
Vadis" at the Opera house Saturday
night by Sanford Dodge and his COM
pany? We say the good effect because
the play pictures faithfully and truly
actual privations, prosecutions and
victories of the Christians at the hands
of Nero. This play. is perhaps the
most remarkable on the boards in that
it has not line or an act that causes
an impure thought and yet it is ex-
citing and intensely interesting from
curtain to curtain.
"SaDfod Dodge as Marcus Vinicius
the nephew of Petronius seems to have
been fitted by nature and preference
for the part and it does seem indeed
that if he had the part written espec.
tally for him it could not be changed
to advantage. He appears as manly
man endowed with all the better i'm
pulses as we'll as the general in3lina.
tions of the Romans at that day. Even
when crazed with wine in the second
act he never failed to carry out the
ideas of the dramatist when near the
close of the play he came under the
influence of christianity, he was truly
an admirable character"
Mr.. Dodge and his superb company
will present this remarkable play in
Hot Springs next Wednesday night.

To Move 4. Church.


The Congregational society has de-
cided to move it's church building
They feel that it is not located in the
most accessible place and have secured
lots in block l, just short distance
south of the old Salvation Army hall,
facing the creek, and expect to move
the church thereon within few
months. 1t is their intention to erect
parsonage upon the lots where the
church now stands. Rev. Sanford has
about completed all the arrangements
for this important move and believes
sucn a change will be of much benefit

on his sad mission wit. he remains of
his wife, who died suddenly here of
heart failure OH the llth inst. She
will be buried there ut their old home
amid friends and relatives. Cut down
in the prime of life, thus calling to
mind how uncertain is life. In the
death of Mrs. Delahoyd this commun-
ity feels that it has sustained an irrep-
arabic loss and we extend our heart
felt sympathy to MIR. Delahoyd and his
little family. Words are inadequate
to express the loss that they have sus-
tained. A kind and faithful wife, low
ing and careful mother, loved and re-
spected 10y all who knew her, and the
more loved and respected by those who
knew her best. This is the second time
that old Reaper Death has visited this
little community i'll the past few weeks
and taken away those that we loved
thus recalling to your humble writer
mind that no respector of persons is
Old Reaper, Death. He makes his
presence felt though he is never seen
he reaps the bearded grain at Il breath
and the flowers that grow between
Then let US hope that in the life be
yond if such life there beg that We
NAV all meet never more to part

IRON AND STEEL.
Business Quiet Now With Export
Trade Very Dull


New York. May 2-Dfscussing the con-
dition of the iron and steel trades. the
Iron Age says: The buying hunger is
appeased Of new orders has fallen off
tonnage OF new orders has fallen Off
considerably. as it could not otherwise
be after so prolonged and heavy a pur-
chasing movement Pittsburg reports
further sales of basic pig iron and it is
intimated that the leading interest will
soon take quantities of bessemer pig
for the second half, for which little has
been done so far Apparently there is
also reserve buying power in forge
irons.
On the other hand Cincinnati reports
at least one round transaction in south
ern pig iron. on the basis of SLIPS for
No. at Birmingham. against S11-T5
which has recently ruled. Eastern
Pennsylvania too, displays some irreg
ularity in prices Of foundry iron.
The steel market is quiet and $24 FOR
billets is the basis of the moderate bus
mess which is going.
The steel rail mills have taken a heavy
tonnage. all the buyers having been Civ
en- an opportunity. Some Of the mills
before the advance. Some of the mills
have been forced to turn away orders in
considerable quantity because of their
inability to roll the rails in time. The
explanation which is being made in the
n 8
that the mills want to clinch what work
they have on their books and want 10
prevent cancellations later on.
Rumors are af1oat that a German mill
has taken an order for 1000 tons for
Canadian road and figuring is now be-
ing done on another 10000 ton lot 1t APP
pears. too, that some South American
business may go to Europe.
1t is noteworthy that the European
makers seem at last to have become
convinced that our strong position here
is not a mere sham, but is based on . II
enormous consumption. The Germans
have stitched considerably of late and
ket which are turning the business to
the British works.
The report that a leading interest has
pldCed 20 900 tons of ship plates in Bel
fast lacks confirmation here. Some
weeks since such q transaction was re-
ported from England
Generally speaking, the export trade
Is very dull 1T has practically ceased
in pig iron, steel billets. and bars and
other lines, although it does continue
with gratifying persistency in struc-
tural ma terial In the latter the rush
of work is over for the present. but it
has left the shops crowded with work
for many months to come.
One Of the great yards on the Della
ware is reported to have taken some i'm
portant business lately and is now in
quiring for the material. The eastern
bar iron manufacturers had another
conference last week While nothing
that is definite has been yet done the
impression seems to prevail that the
makers VIII ultimately agree upon some
equitable basis.
The sheet trade throughout the eoun-
try is still under very heavy pressure
and does not appear to be gaining as yet
on the accumulated orders
