TO Old Prices

Hop prices are in reality on the
downward move, and during the week
just ended the record shows that sew.
eral fair-slzed sales have been made at
prices ranging from 171h to 1915 cents,
with a majority Of them at the lower
figure. T. A. Livesley on Monday pur-
chased from Samuel Orr of Rlckreal,
200 bales of choice 19O2's at IS cents a
pound. At one time, about week ago,
Mr.. Orr refused a bonafide offer Of 20
cents for the same goods. and early
last fall turned down an offer of 27
cents. Mr.. Orr, like a large number of
the valley growers, was holding for 80
cents.
Market Much Weaker.
: Weakness prevails throughout the
entire hop market, and 1t will only be
the question OF a few days II the pres
ent condition continues to exist before
the market will touch bedrock at
about is cents. OF course, there is al
ways chance that reports of crop
conditions will have rallying effect
on the market, but at this time that
last hope is very dim.
Contracting is very slow at present,
on account OF the weakness in the spot
hop market, and no contracts have
been reported within the past few
days.

SHILOH, AND SETTING UP OF THE
TABERNACLE.

The ancient city, Shiloh, was situated
some miles north of Jerusalem, on the
route leading by Bethel to Shecham, near
here is "Joeob's WE'LL" one hundred and
five feet deep. The we'll on which the
Savior of the world, wearied and tired,
sat and talked with'the woman of Sama-
ria. Near this well is the tomb of Jo-
seph, Jacobs beloved son, whose bones
had been preserved some three hundred
years in Egypt, and brought up and buried
in ''that parcel of ground that Jacob gave
to his son, Joseph" Ono. 4:5)
Shiloh was one of the earliest and most
sacred of the Hebrew sanctuaries.
The Ark of the Covenant, which had
been kept at Gilgal during the progress
of the conquest, was removed thence on
the subjugating of the country, and kept at
Shilvh from the days of Joshua to the
time of Samuel. ''And the whole con-
gregation of the children of Israel assem-
bIed together at Shiloh, and set up the
tabernacle of the congregation there.
And the land was subdued before them"
Josh. d8I) "And Joshua cast lots for
them Din Shiloh before the Lord, and
there Joshua divided the land unto the
children of Israel according to their d.

unconquered, and the people were still
therefore an army, the tabernacle was
moved from place to place, wherever the
host of Israel was for the time encamped
1t was finally put in 'the place the Lord
had chosen, at Shiloh.
We don't know why Shiloh was chosen.
1t may be because of its central position,
or because of it belonging to the tribe
of Ephram's, the tribe of the great captain
of the host;it continued at Shiloh during the
whole period of the judges. The Ark of
God was taken, and the sanctuary lost its
glory, and the tabernacle, though it did not
not perish, never again recovered it.
Samuel treated it as shrine abandoned,
and sacrifices elsewhere, at Mizpeh, RAJ
nah, and Gilgal. 1t might have become
again memorable sanctuary For a
time it seems, under Saul, to have been

and put it in the hands of their God,

Jerusalem, and when Solomon completed

for the statement that it was reinstated
by Joshua Gil Chron. 33:7) The Ark
was likely taken captive, or destroyed, by
Nebuchanezzer, at least we know nothing
of its present whereabouts, or What finally
became of it.

LONDON, Aug. 17.-AndreW Carne-
gie's philanthropic activity is not en-
tirely confined to the endowment of
universities and the building of free
libraries. His private charity has not
so far become matter of public inter
est because he insists upon promise
from those he helps to keep their rela-
tions with him secret.
For some time past he has been in
undated with applications from all
classes and conditions of people who
represented themselves to be on the
verge of starvation, but on making his
usual careful inquiries he discovered,
of course, that many of the applicants
were frauds. He has now instructed
his secretary that applications from
needy widows and orphans only are to
command his attention in the future.
Mr.. Carnegie has gone to a great
amount of trouble in perfecting
scheme for assisting such people. 1t
was suggested to him that a number of
persons interested in charitable insti-
tutiOns would be useful to him in MAX
ing the necessary inquiries, so that his
charity might not run into the wrong
channels.
NO" said Carnegie, 81 can manage
my own charity
He has already appointed inquiry
agents in London, Manchester, Glas-
gov and Edinburgh, who will be paid
according to the number of inquiries
they will be called upon to make.
They are all women, because Carnegie
says that women are necessary to un-
derstand womankind. About a dozen
of them have been appointed so far.
