A Spirited Romance of the Closing
Days of the Revolution i'm North
Carolina Just Begun in This Publica-
ton.
From the publisher. John Waua-
maker, we have received the Christ
mas and New Years numbers of Erery-
6odgs Magazine, which it is announced
that he has ust taken over and as
sumed the management and publica-
ton of. The December number con-
tains the first. installment Ola serial
story which should be Of special inter-
est to North Carolinians from the fact
that the scenes are laid in this State.
1t is a story of the American Reyolu-
ton. entitled ''Joscelyn Cheshire" by
new writer. Mrs. Sara Beaumont
Kennedy, With its quiet glimpses of
home-life in the South. contrasted
with the outside stirring events Of
war, this tale is as refreshing as it is
new in fiction, and promises to be
very popular in the North; we venture
to say that it should be more so in
the land of its inspiration.
The chief characters are born and
bred and the most charming scenes OF
home-life laid in North Carolina. and
much of the glory achieved by the
sons is traced to the home-infiuence
of the daughters of this State. While
in serial form, eight handsome full
page illustrations by H. c. Edwards,
will accompany the text.
The opening chapters are very in
teresting. The stcry reminds one OF
Janice Meredith, Joscelyn being a
very capricious and irresistible young
beauty.
Mrs Kennedy is a resident of Mem
phi.. Tenn. and is a sister of Mrs F.
A. Odds. of Raleigh.

The Pas sing of the Year.

As We watched the old year out and
the new year in there was feeling Of
sadness as we realized that it was the

the last month of the last year Of the
last century that we would sec the

NEW YORK, April 12.-London op-

cal market started off. as a rule, a lit
tie lower than the closing prices yes
terday. There was a fairly prompt
rally, however, and considerable
strength was shown later.
New York fractions opened at about
the closing price Of Thursday, and raj
lied from two to three points, retain
ing some of the gain. Manhattan OPP
ened at 1865, sold up to 12s. and clos
cd at 1851.
In the railway market the North
western roads were very active, and
advanced from 2 to 4 points, but did
not retain all the gain. Burlington
opened at IS9, sold up to 1915, and
closed at 1891. Northern Pacific op-
ened at 81. went to 80, and closed at
9oA. st. Paul opened at 15SA, went
to 1858, and closed at 154&. Union
Pacific made a net gain of IL, open
ing at San, selling to 94A, and clos

group Rock Island sold at 14l2. n

ern Pacific opened at 44B, sold to 46A
closing at 45k. Missouri, Kansas,
Texas and Texas Pacific and st. Louis

yesterdays prices.
About one o'clock the coal stocks,
under the lead of Reading and Della
ware and Hudson. advanced two or
three points, closing near the best
prices, wA..ch was generally interpret
ed to mean that favorable news had
been received by inside sources from

In industrials United States steel

CHICAGO, April 12.-May wheat
scored a good advance early to-day, but
lost it and closed A0Sc lower. Other
markets were rather narrow, oor and
oats closing unchanged and provisions
2kc to 12hc higher. An influential
factor in the wheat market early was
the heavy export business as revealed
by immense clearances from the sea-
board. which in wheat and -four
amounted to 1921 900 buschels. OF this
$751; 900 bushels represented the raw pro-
duct. 1t did not represent new bust
ness but verified the enthusiastic re-
ports of a fortnight ago. A light do
mestic movement and smaller ship
ments from Argentina. together with
steady cables, completed the bullish ar
ray. May opened a shade lower to ull-

wheat was offered because of the light

ports OF injury from insects. Aside
from a narrow scalping interest there
was nobody to care for the offerings,
and May broke with considerable rapid
ity TO 70A q70Be, and closed weak "a

five loads taken. Primary receipts were
315 600 bushels. Local receipts were -
cars, nom of contract grade. while Min
neapolis and Duluth reported 133 cars.
The corresponding days last week and
a year ago were holidays.
Corn preserved its frmness but
offered little of interest. Wet weather
in the west calculated to keep coun-
try roads in a condition which will
render It difficult to get corn from
country cribs TO the railways, ever ad-
hitting that the 5ullish grangers have
any such desire. Apparently, they
have not, for acceptances TO last
