Trade Report.

R. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review of
Trade last week says: Weather con-
ditions and the labor situation are the
dominant influences in the business
world. Unseasonably high tempera-
ture at many points, especially in the
east, stimulated retail trade in wearing
apparel and other summer merchan-
disc to an unusual degree, but had a
most unsatisfactory effect upon vege-
tation. which was promptly reflected
in diminished orders for supplies, and
in some cases there were cancellations
More conservatism was also shown in
the interior, where agricultural prog
ress met with a check, and while no
serious injury to the great staple crops
is yet reported, the delay to planting
induces caution among dealers.
On the whole, there are fewer wage
earners voluntarily idle, yet the spirit
of unrest has caused the abandonment
of some new enterprises and postpone
ment of others, which means less de.

D. Now he was ready to enter upon his work as an educator.
 We find him while still in his teens the principal of Masonic college, at Macon, Tenn. At the end of year there, he accepts the position of tutor in the preparatory department at Dennison university at Granville, O., remaining in the Granville institution three years. Next, Dr. Harper labored in the Baptist Union theological semi nary, at Morgan Park. H., occupying the chair of Hebrew and Old Testa- ment exegesis. His fame as He- brew scholar spread; he began to teach Hebrew by correspondence, and also organized the American Institute of Hebrew. Then we find Dr. Harper as- SOCldLGO4 WlUA tlG SAduOdudub nORC- ment and serving as principal of the system. He received call to Yale, and there filled the position of pro- lessor of Biblical literature, and later, in the divinity school, served as in structor in Semitic languages. In 1891, he sailed for Europe, to spend a year in travel and study, before assuming the responsibility of head of the new University of Chicago.
 At the age of 34. pr. Harper became head of this, new seat of learning, an institution that to-day, after the pas sage of only 12 years, has prestige as we'll as bigness to commend it. How ever, one cannot avoid the habit of mentioning figures when referring to the University of Chicago, so we will allude to the 4,364 students enrolled the school year just come to close, and to the $21, 100000 that up to the moment represents the sum bestowed on this sturdy infant university.
 The University of Michigan has had at it's helm for 22 years the noted edu- cator, Dr. James Burrill Angell Dr. Angel was originally an eastern man, was born and brought up in Rhode Is- land. He was graduated at the head of his class from Brown university in 1s49, and after graduation and some time spent abroad in travel, accepted the chair of modern languages at Brown, remaining there six years. Dur ing this period he took much interest in public affairs, and ever since has been more or less prominent in pub lie life. While in residence in Provi. dence, he had editorial charge of tho

ELEPHANT SHOOTING.
An Exciting Incident of the Sport in
 Ceylon Described.


 Ceylon Described.
 Elephant shooting is not without it's dangers as we'll as it's excitement I have found both many times, but I believe the closest shave I ever had with the great brutes was during a recent hunting expedition in Ceylon. For several days luck had been against me. Every day sent out trackers, and each day with the same result no sign of the game for which I was looking. Still continued it up to and including the day when I had my "close shave"
 I had sent out two trackers in one direction at daylight, and gone with two others in another direction, and had just returned to breakfast about nine a.. m., having had no luck, when the first two men returned to say that, on the far side of the lake by which I was encamped, they had come across the tracks of a huge male in the wet, dewy grass, and had followed them until they had turned into dense jungle, where, doubtless, the beast had gone to lie up for the day. They had found native dug-out-i. e., a tree trunk dug out and used as a boat and had crossed the lake at once to give me the news.
 The lake was quite 8 mile wide, with heavy reeds to push our way through; but we started at once, and, sure enough, found the tracks still aPpar- ent, and, with some difficulty, tracked him through the jungle by the broken branches and twigs he had fed off. But the dead leaves cracked at every footstep, the dew not having formed in the shaded forest to soften them. and the wind kept shifting as indicated by the dust licked from the little bag of wood ashes always carry for this purpose.
 We proceeded thus for about a mile, myself and the native hunter picking out the tracks of a solitary old male rogue elephant, whom the natives credited with having killed ten people.
 Suddenly we saw him in some thick stuff close in front and facing us, trunk up, taking the wind, ears flap ped out widely to each side to catch every sound; and, of course, no chance,

One of the recent appointees of the department of justice is that of Miss Floy w. Gilmore to be an assistant at torney in the office of the attorney gen eral of the Philippines. She is the first woman ever appointed by the depart ment to such an important position She owes her distinction entirely to her ability and ambition. She was born in Indiana and is 28 years old. Army of fcers who knew her in the Philippines say she is very pretty, says Washing ton report.
 Miss Gilmore was clerk and secretary to F. Finley Johnson when he was pro- lessor of law at Michigan university. She devoted her spare time to studying law and graduated from the university law school When the Philippine iudic- iary was estab blished in 1901 Prof. John son was appointed judge of a court of the first instance.
 Miss Gilmore went with him. She took the civil service examination and was appointed stenographer in the at torney generals office. There she dis played such marked legal ability that Gov.

Ma-sy aLfnnesota Lesi@1ators Had a Hard Time Reaching the
 State Capital.

The members of the Minnesota legislature of to-day are not content with their lot unless they can jour- ney to St. Paul. the capital, in the most palatial of railway carriages, says 8 Minneapolis exchange. Fifty years ago last January, when the Legislature assembled, some of the members from the extreme northern counties were sadly disappointed. They had hoped to walk into the new capitol, select their seats and enjoy the pleasures incident to the first oc- cupancy of that structure. Their homes were so far removed from the capital and the means of communica- tion during the winter months so poor as to practically isolate them, hence they had not been able to keep in touch with the situation and did not know that the capitol was still unfinished. Three of them-Rolette, Kittson and Gingros, of the county ef Pembina-had come the entire dis tapce on snowshoes and several had taken desperate chances of death by blizzardga or hungry timber wolves. Several members of that legislature were afterward distinguished for their ability as debaters and shrewd politicians and most of them had a hand in forming the great common wealth now called the 'bread and butter statr

inauguration of President Angel, the increase in the number of its students, its widespread influence and it's grow ing reputation are the best proofs of the marked success of his administra-t tion It is due to his remarkable a4b1l- 1 ity that the University of Michigan, not only ranks among the first insta-' tutions of learning in the Unlted States, but serves as, model for all endowed colleges.pA participant in public services, Dr. Angell has served as United States minister plenipoten% tiary to China, was one of the three commissioners to negotiate new treaty with China; aided in the ne-' gotiations in regard to the fisheriesi problem; and served as United States minister to Turkey.
 We have taken our glance at the presidents of two great schools of the middle west, and now shall have time, for nasty view of only one more in- stitution.

Henry Churchill King,
 the new president at Oberlin, has

 has reached people of widely differing
 types; we may mention that his labors
 as lecturer have been in demand both at Harvard and at the Moody eyangel- I icaI school at Northfeld.
