withdrawn and the price is ad-

The TRIBUNE predicts that it will
go still higher, for there is not an

HIS DISPOSITION.
The Late Philip Armour Was Exceedingly
Kind.

The Late Philip Armour Was Exceedingly
Kind.
Tie following little story OF Philip
D. Armour, who died recently, illus
trates the kindly disposition OF the
man:
On one OF his journeys through
France, Mr.. Armour found entertain
ment in q manufacturing town, where
he inspected factory in which several
hundred girls were employed in max
ing lace curtains. Sauntering through
the workshops he observed that many
of the girls seemed to be in poor
health. They appeared to be over
worked. pinched and worn in appear
ance. Many looked old and wiihered
before their time. He thought that
he had never seen little army OF
work people so forlorn and hungry
looking.
1t was sight that weighed heavily
on him. Before quitting the factory
he called at the private Office OF the
superintendent and requested the
privilege of leaving sum of money
to be distributed among the girls,
whose wretched appearance had
touched his sympathies. His request
being readily granted, he handed over
a handsome sum, and before depart
ing enjoyed the pleasant sight of its
distribution, all the girls being lined
up to receive the gift.
