STOCKS AND BONDS

New York, March 1.-The stock mar
ket was very ~listless and idle today and
reflected declining interest, even on the
part of professional traders. Many of
these have taken advantage of the dull
business on the exchange to go away Tor
spring vacation trips, and the absence
from the street of many of the bank
ers and railroad proprietors, who are US
ually concerned in large dOings, shows
the general acquiesence in the present
state of things. The small traders,
whose dealings make up the market,
devoted their attention to the less I'M
portant stocks, which have occupied
them for some time past. With the ex-
ception of a rise Of "a in American Cot
ton Oil, said TO be due to favorable trade
conditions, there was no movement -
sufficient Importance to chronicle. Inc
bank statement showed a smaller decline
in cash reserves han expected, but thiS
was attributed to the working OF the
average system Of computations py
which the gold shipments of Thursdays
figure for only three days in the state
ment. The loan item was also a reliel
in the modest proportions OF its eHpah-
sion as a large increase had been 1cared'
The room shorts therefore cO"oiou ="

strength to the market. With both lodf

the desirability of caution in 1ncurflhS

clearly recognized and there IS no ap-

(Richmond Christian AdvocateD
There are three notable philanthropists.
Mrs. Stanford, Mrs. Hearst and Baroness

child, a son, owning papers in New York,
Chicago and San Francisco. She gave
four millions to the University OF Cali

q school for girls, and many smaller
gifts. The, Baroness Burdett- Coutts, Of
London, has poured out millions for
charities. And now at eighty-seven she
continues her charities. Queen Victoria
made her a peeress because of her care
for the poor. Nevertheless, there are
noble women without millions, with
scant resources who make personal sac
rifices for the good of others. \ dollar
to q person with narrow means counts as
a million. The thin wafer Of metal, the

more surely than the gold bar Of the mill

Therefore the misery man ought TO have
