OBITUARY.
MoCKING BIRD.

Departed this life, May 80, 1903.
MAMIE, beloved wife of Oden NJ :.
Dyson and daughter of Mrs. Henri
eta Hammett, aged about 90 years.
May she rest in peace
Death has visited this quiet fami-
ly and taken therefrom its dearest
member. She was a good woman
and true friend, as the writer well
knows. Sod called her to her eter-
nal home and we must submit to His
holy will. Then weep not, sorrow
ing husband and mother, for your
loss is her gain. She has crossed
to the happy bourne from whence
none return to share the crown pre-
pared for her and to await and well
come the loved ones she has left to
mourn her loss. She spent just six
teen short months of welded bliss.
Her whole life was spent in doing
good and all who knew her respect
ed and loved her. Her remains were
laid to rest in st. Nicholas grave
yard, and many friends gathered to
pay the last tribute to her dead,
whom living they had loved.
Nobiy ut her post she fell.
A wife so kind and true,
Fondly loved by all her friends,
And kind to all her she knew.
Tears within her husbands eyes.
The mothers breaking heart
Can only tell the agony
How hard IL IL to part.

I'm Memory
of our little son, JAMES WALTER COL
LIsoN, who died June 81, 1902.
Oh Walter, thy gentle voice is hushed,
Thy warm, true heart is still,
And on thy pale and peaceful face
Is resting in deaths cold chill.
Thy hands are clasped upon thy breast,
We have kissed thy lovely brow,
And in our aching hearts we know
We have no Walter now.
The midnight stars are shining,
U pom silent grave.
Where sleepeth without dreaming
The one we could not save.
Beneath the sod he gently hes
Within his narrow bed;
With folded hands upon his breast
RE sleeps with the silent dead.

June's presentation Of shirt waists recalls
those of last summer in their see-through
fancies. Not only are there open-work fea-
lures, but in many cases the thinness of
the material is SO marked as to make the
goods practically transparent. Wash waists
particularly abound in see-throughs. New
wash silks of plain sorts are SO thin that
the outline of garments beneath are clearly
visible, but that is not new. Indeed 1t is
outdone in lace-trimmed waists, in which
are insertions Of heavy antique and Cluny
down sleeves and in the yokes. After
day in the hot sun the arms and neck will
have lace designs tatooed on them in SUM-
burn. Mexican work. too, Is very open and
is employed similarly. Very few colored
shirt waists are seen. white and black and

The back opening may be fastened with

which is great enough to insure the continu-
ance of any fashion.
Not much study OF tailoring is needed to
convince the observer that all new goods
are to be had in white. OF all the white
tailor stuffs. Siclian seems the best. as
its witness enables it to shed much Of the
dirt that so quickly will soil other goods.
The same quality, too, makes it bear cleans

a handsome model for this consists OF a
pleated skirt and tight three-quarters coat.
The only trimming on this may be large
white pearl buttons followed In saucer
shape. White voies and canvases have
some dust-shedding quality, also, but to a
less degree than Sicilian.
White cheviots and broadcloths are dust
catchers. though when spick and span they
are extremely swagger.
The other grade of tailor suits to stand
out is Iace-trimmed. Much-trimmed tailor
suits prevailed. so women should not be
surprised at their continuance. The point
that staggers IS that lace appears In them.
II seems as If highly wrought tailoring that
showed only tailor establishment should
have sufficed.

New York. June 12.-The improvement in

strongly yesterday. grew more pronounced
| to-day. The opening prices were generally
higher, though scarcely equal to this morn

There was some little reaction after the

| which about half the mornings gain was

| AS one well-known banker who bought
largely during Wednesdays scare put IT.:
| To-day is when the wise men. the men
who do not get scared, reap the reward OF
their courage of Wednesday. Many of them
are taking their profits to-day. Many more.

There was very evident covering Of
shorts during the day, and the same tao

to cover, were INDUCED in by the bull:sh
traders. One prominent bear bought in 4
heavy line of Erie. and another house !den-
titled with the short selling of Baltimore
and Ohio was bidding very lively for that
stock.
Brokers reported that at times the bear
contingent were apparently testing the mar

Shortly after the market opened and
when prices were strong and trading ac-

various houses.
To quote the language of the shorts press

the market was strong, and the stufting
