IN MEMORIAM.

On Friday morning, January 10,
1902, the death of Isaac william
Elsea. of typhoid fever, occurred.
He was twelve years and Ave months
of age. His death shocked eur
community, as be had fought brave
battle, and We thought We would b
spared the painful parting from eur
darling boy, so bright and manly.
We can hardly think eff him - gene
forever.
Roses faded around, lAlies bleomed
aud died,
Earthly sunbeams vanished, radiant
still the skv.
Jesus, rose of Sharon, bloomed fer
his own,
Jesus, Heavens Sunshine, never will
leave him alone.
His mother, who for nearly seven
long weeks, watched so faithfully
and hopefully, has our deepest sym
pathy, in her bereavement.

THE MARKETS
Wall Street Review.

New York. July 14.-The speculative
operators in favor Of higher prices for
newed vigor today, centering their cam
paign in St. Paul. That stock has always
been peculiarly effective as a leader, ow-
ing to its representative character among
the western trunk lines and to the large
floating supply in the market. Its notable
rise today. therefore. had some synpa-
thctic effect on stocks of it's own class.
The mass of securities. however. re-
manned singularly unresponsive to the ag
gressive strength of ST. Paul and even
sagged in spots from torpid demand. In
movement, was interfered with by the OBJ,
vious profit-taking going on in Missouri
Pacific and the suspicion, thus aroused
that the st. Paul manipulation was ex-
preSsly designed to facilitate this profit
taking. There We're also weak spots
among the industrials. The declines from,
Saturdays level reached a point in Mis-
souri, Pacific. Sugar and Amalgamated.
Atchison responded early to the st. Paul
rise and followed it closely throughout
the day, but it was not until late that
ern Pacific came into the movement. The
St. Louis Southwestern stocks and ILL
nois Central were also conspicuous.
reference to the days sales list will show
that the stocks above specified made up
the principal portion of the days market.
AS each stock was successfully brought
forward into the movement the buying
took on large proportions. Blocks of from
a thousand to six thousand shares We're
dealt in freely in all of the active issues.
The weak stocks generally recovered and
closed unchanged or at slight losses. An
effort was made in connection with the
advance of hopeful talk of crop prospects
and no account was taken of the signs of
strength in the grain markets based on
reports of more unwelcome rains in the
southwest. The grain markets are not
considered a reliable barometer of actual
crop conditions, owing to the disturbance
of abnormal conditions by speculation.
1t must be considered also that the spec
ulative mind Is much confused in follow
ing the statistical rectificaton in the gov
ernment's crop acreage figures in the at
tempt to conform the agricultural de-
partments's figures, to the census returns.
The market closed rather irregular. but
with the Changers at the top level. Total
sales for the day. 66l, 500 shares The bond
market was more irregular. even than
stocks and without conspicuous fca-
ture. Total sales. par value. 900
