IT HE parish priest was reputed to be
a good man and a wise one, but
strict in his Interpretation of the word
of God. In worldly mattel lie was gem
erous and kind-hearted, but in spir-
itual affairs he held closely TO the
letter of the law, and those who had
offended against the church, however
so slightly, rather Stunned him. His
manner at times was forbidding and
his questions searching, but a spirit
of justice pervaded all his acts and
gave him an extraordinary power
over his parishioners.

that made the young woman anxious
to see him; it was his reputation for

"Did he know this?"
"Yes. father; he learned il when Il

DR.. Lyman Abbott, of Brooklyn,
in his baccalaureate sermon at
Wellesley college, took the ground
that woman should not have mis-
sion. True education meant, he
stated, the regulation of unruly pas
sions, appetites and aspirations. The
will is the very citadel of right, a
strong will being the essence of
forceful character. The seniors of
Wellesley were reminded by DR..
Abbott that, having finished their
college course, they were about to
meet the serious responsibilities of
active life. They might be tempted

FINANCE AND TRADE.

The past week was rather un-
eventful in trade circles. The high
temperature prevailing during the
first few days served to check
transactions, materially, and in some
cases it was absolutely necessary to
stop mills and factories. In addi-
ton, the New York stock exchange
adjourned from July 3 to 8, a most
unusual proceeding, and one almost
Marshall County independent. (Plymouth, Marshall County, Ind.) 1897-1902, 1901-07-12

without precedent. But as sales
had fallen to the lowest notch the
adjournment was not looked upon
with any degree of disfavor. There
was some criticism, of course, con
corning the length of the recess, but
on the whole, the workers were
glad to get few days respite after
the torrid wave.
Besides the hot weather, some
other matters served to create an
uneasy feeling in trade circles. New
labor troubles, bank failures and
higher rate for money served pur-
pose, though without much reason.
Really, the state of trade continues
as favorable as ever. The incidents
TO which reference has been made
are incidental to prosperity, eSpec-
ially labor troubles. AT such times
the toiler demands his full share,
and generally succeeds in getting
the same, sooner or later.
A prominent incident of the week
was the declaration of a dividend OF
1 per cent upon the common stock
of the United States Steel company.
There was some disappointment
that the dividend was not declared
as a quarterly, but the directors saw
fit to say that it was simply divi-
dend, leaving others TO make the
inference that it would be paid as
long as earnings justified, but no
longer. There is not much doubt
but that ii was earned, but there is
some question as to the amount car.
