General Crop Conditions.

Following is the report of the
general condition of crops in Ten
nessee for week ending Monday
April Is, 1901:
The greater portion of the week
was cool and dry, and quite favora-
bic for farm work, and farmers inn
proved the opportunity by pushing
forward the work of planting corn,
and blowing and gardening; on the
18th and 18th good rains fell, which
hindered all outside work. Corn
planting had advanced rapidly and
faVorably, and was nearing compile
ton in many sections. Some cotton
was planted under favorable condi-
tions in the southern and western
counties. AS rule, planting and
other farm work was farther adj
Vanced than usual at this period,
but termination was backward, ow-
ing to the lack of much warm sun
shine on the soil. Wheat generally
was much improved, and beginning
to grow well, especially the later
sowings; the early sowings was Sc
riously affected by the fly, which
will shorten this portion of the gen
eral crop. Oats and the grasses are
growing well. Gardening progress
ed favorably, and the generous
rains will give quite an impetus to
the growth of vegetables. Irish
potatoes are beginning to come up.
Large areas are intended to be seed
ed to corn this season in many Sec
tions. Light frosts occurred during
the early part of the week, but it is
not thought that the early fruit is
injured to any extent, except posi-
bly, IN a few localities.

Girls Dancing in Trousers.


The decline in'the art of dancing
among men has put the fair sex to
desperate straits for partners. The
awful fate of sitting against the
wall the whole evening is the lot of
many girls at social affairs, and few
and far between are they who have
their entire programmes filled.
In order to solve this delicate
problem the Kappa Iota Society has
started new plan. On Saturday
it gave dance. in the home of the
Miss Benjamin, No, All Grand
Boulevard. None but the fair sex
was admitted.
III alf of these donned masculine
garb, while the other half retained
skirts. The experiment was a great
success, and it would not be sur
prising if the practice became
popular. Chicago telegram to the
New York Press.

Birds at an Easter Service.

Trinity Methodist Church, one of
the leading churches of this city,
used as Easter choristers on Sunday
sixty canaries and fifty knocking
birds. The idea originated with
Miss Rose White Steighagen, the
organist. She suggested to the
pastor that it would be a novelty
if the birds could be made to
render the music. He agreed with
her and they set to work on last
Thursday to secure the birds.
They visited the various members
of the congregation and the bird
stores of the city, and asked for all
the birds they had-canaries or
knocking birds-they did not care
which, they said.
Many of the Pensioners were
curious to know what they wanted
with the soDgsters, but no amount
of questioning was sufficient to
draw the secret either from the
organist or preacher. When the
congregation filed into church and
pSlNCl"SN SdS9Co NCpChNIAlS 1AOILi lnS
roof they were surprised. The birds
themselves appeared to lie frighten-
ed until the organ sounded. Then
they appeared to take on confidence.
And before the first few notes of
tie prelude hard been rendered one
of the canaries burst into song.
Another took it up almost instantly,
and then another and another, until
all the birds were singing.
After that during the entire SER
vice, sermon and all, the birds kept
the church filled with music-the
mocking birds, with their stronger
voices, doing particularly well.
Members of the church are now dis
cussiDg the ACCESSIBILITY Of con-
tinuing the birds as a regular
feature.-Atlanta telegram to the
New \ ork Sun.

Bob Taylor Taken for W. S. Taylor.

Former Gov. r. l.. Taylor, of
Tennessee, while in Knoxville few
days ago, told this joke, at his own
expense partly and partly at the ex-
pense of Pennsylvania mountain
community: 81 had been billed
several days to speak III q little town
which had only one railroad, and
| dreaded the place because | did
not expect a crowd. | reached the
town, and fully 1000 people were
out to see me. A committee of the
most prominent men in the town
met me with a carriage and a brass
band. Yankee Doodle was played
many times, but Dixie was never
thought of. The spokesman for
the party told me that he was glad
to welcome to the town a man who
had been so badly treated by the
Democrats, and who was entitled to
the office of Governor beyond all
doubt. His statements were APP
plauded, and1 wondered how l had
been mistreated. But | held my
peace and waited. j.. | was called up
on by men Of all classes, who assur-
ed me that had been elected be
yond all doubt. | thanked every
one for his kindness in the matter.
I was-totd that l would have a bic
house that night, and sure enough
l did. The chairman rose and said:
4 take pleasure ia introducing a
man who mas been cheated ont Of
the governorship OF Kentucky and
who did not Iii Goebel. I vel
come a martyr of Democratic infa-
my in our midst, and be IS surely
welcome I delivered my lecture,
aud the mistake was never known
while I as there. I left on the
first train, fifteen minutes after the
close Of my lecture. W heeling In

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, July 19.-The character of
today's stock market was much the
same as that of yesterday, but there
was CONSPICUOUS absence of the late
enormous demand which lifted Union
Pacific in the closing deals. The volume
of transactions was rather larger than
yesterday but the market was never
theless professional. Much liquidation
had to be absorbed by those who had
set themselves the task of supporting
the market and the burden seemed to
be too heavy to carry Prices broke
through support in the late dealings
and the market closed weak at the low
est of the day. Even those stocks
which had shown strength during the
day had very little left to show in the
way of gains, and the stocks which
We're CONSPICUOUS for strength yester-
day We're conspiciously weak. The
stocks selected as props for the market
today seemed to be principally amongst
the Southern Railroads and the Gould
Southwesterns. United States Steel
stocks seemed we'll under control by
insiders and were marked up
sharply over a point each during the
period of strength in the market.

the late reaction the decline in St Paul

of the selling seemed to be prompted
by the renewed fears of disaster to the
corn crop, the same motive being at

and was attributed to important in
terests. The selling for London ac-
count was another important factor in
the days market. 1t was most con-

stocks. but extended besides to others
of the International listed stocks.
The days sales for today account were
estimated at as high as 100000 shares.
This development was factor in the
| firmness of sterling exchange in New
York and the easier tone of money in
London. The selling Discrimination to
continue the support of the market by
the group of capitalists to whom spec
