BUSINESS FlOURISHING.
Railroad Earnings Exhibit Gains and the
Whole Situation Is Encouraging. Wheat
and Corn Outlook Good.

Il. G. Dun & Co.'S weekly Review
of Trade says: Business continues
very brisk for the season In the face of
some drawbacks. Bank clearances
show that while speculation has been
heavy there must have been we'll
sustained volume of legitimate busi-
ness. Railroad earnings make similar
ly encouraging gains, and the future Is
full of promise, unless there is some
misfortune with the crops. Much un-
favorable comment has appeared re-
garding the advance in steel rails 10

ing with recent increase in prices OF
pig iron and billets.
1t Is reported from Pittsburg. Pa,
that mills are not crowded by demand
TO the extent noticed In 1899, but pro-
ductive capacity has largely expanded.
After prolonged period OF waiting
for definite crop news, the cereal mar
kets suddenly awoke to unusual ac-
tivity. Much of the increased trading
and sharp advance In prices resulted
from clever manipulation by western
| speculator. who compelled the short
contingent to cover May corn CON
tracts at the highest prices of the
season. While there was an clement

United States. against 204 last year.
and 20 in Canada, against 22 last year.
Bradstreet's says: While adversely
affected by unfayorable weather con-
aitions, general trade manfests a
strong underlying tone which seeming
ly lacks only the advent OF better
weather to become buoyant. Cold
weather has affected planting in some
sections, but the probable damage to
crops Is not so great as earlier advices
appeared to Indicate. The backward
spring has worked to the disadvantage
of dry goods. but the trade Is looking
up somewhat with the promise OF
improved weather conditions. Heavy
clearings continue to reflect a large
speculative movement.
The genera price situation Is one or
firmness, most commodities being un-
changed. though there are a few In
creases noticed. particularly in coffee.
Hour, wheat corn. oats, lard and tin,
while butter. cheese. petroleum and
odd sizes of print cloths show declines.
Speculation In wheat last week was
active. and the price movement was
upward. Less activity Is noted In dry
goods. clothing and shoes at Chicago,
though fair business Is under way.
A stiffening Of prices Is noted In lum-
ber with a demand fully mp to the

A capital story relating to good old
times Is still told In the Fen district
Of the eastern counties. AS Is well
known by many and even now remem-
bered by some, a bass viol was often
procured to help the choirs in parish
churches.
One lovely Sunday morning in the
summer while the parson was droning
out his drowsy discourse and had about
reached the middle big bull managed
to escape from his pasture and march
ed majestically down the road, below
Ing defiantly as he came. The parson,
who was somewhat deaf, heard the
bull below, but, mistaking the origin
Of the sound, gravely glanced toward
the singers seats and said In tones Of
reproof:
II would thank the musicians not to
tune up during service time. 1t annoys
me very much"
AS may well be imagined, the choir
looked greatly surprised, but said moth
ing.
Very soon, however, the belligerent
bull gave another below, and then the
aggrieved parson became desperately

The Ki.. That Made Him Mad.

The kiss That Made Him Mad.
A Boston man, in speaking of certain
foreign characteristics, told the follow
ing story: "a middle aged American
couple travelling abroad some years
ago called In Rome on a sculptor with
whom they had been acquainted years
before. The visit passed of pleasant
ly, but at Its close the host CALAMITY
but none the less to her surprise and
chagrin, kissed the lady as he said
goodby. The sculptor was an elderly
man, but nevertheless 1t was a liberty,
and she was not astonished to hear her
husband calculate: why, never heard
of such cheek! I've good mind to go
back and tell him what I think of himr
After two or three remarks of a
similar tenor, in which the note of an
ger was rising, the wife decided to
pour oil ON the troubled waters and so,
laying her hand on his arm, said: L
know, dear, he shouldn't have kissed
me, but what does 1t really matter?
What does kiss count in a woman of
my years? He is a very old man, and
probably he was following the fashion
of the country
Her husband turned an astonished
face. OF course don't mind his kiss
ing you,' he ragged, but and his voice
rose, it's his having kissed me that has
hurt my feelingsp
"The sculptor had followed the Ital-
Ian custom and kissed both wife and
husband."-New York Tribune.
