lnduCldl u1SITlCl InlS morning was the
st. Louis situation. The reassuring at
titude of the three trust companies on
which depositors made run show these
institutions TO be on a firm basis. II is
doubtful If gossip bearing on the sub
ject win have further adverse influence
on the market.
Fundamental conditions surrounding
the general market continue favorable.
and the increasing demand for bonds is
highly significant of an improved feeling
among investors. The general market
itself has been well sold out and freed
from weak speculative holdings that
appeared in the light of menace two
weeks ago.
The Street seems to think the sus-
pension of expenditures for betterments
will make the railroads generally at
tractive for the next six months. With
prices at the present level and the pros
pect of a steady advance. there appears
to be every reason for this opinion.
The market is evidently not ready for
rapid advance. and the large covering
shipments indicate an automatic stopper
on any great bullish movement The
monetary movements for the next sir

tally. the opinion Of prominent authori-
/ ties is that prices have touched bottom
! 1t is evident the public is not yet fol-
| lowing the rise in stocks. Ii is also
evident the advance has not been suf-
fcient to attract attention But 1t is
further evident the outside element is
not h4ken by natural reaction.
Rumors regarding alleged st. Louis
difficulties have been circulated in the
\ financial community here for ten days
past. and UP TO the present time. at
least. the consensus has been that they
were of stock jobbing character The

that some money. at least, will have to

reason which Is making for caution on
the part OF our largest money lenders is
the possibility that in the ensuing two

< WOMEN BILLIARD PLAYERS.

Lots of Elm in France Some Well-
 Known Ones Here, Too.
 "of late years the game of billiards has been growing in popularity among members of the fair sex, and scores of women have become expert with the cue" said well-known clubman to a Star reporter. Many well-to-do people have their own private billiard rooms at their homes, and these give the wo- men of the household and their friends a chance to indulge in the invigorating sport freely.
 In France gentleman is not ashan- ed to take his wife to see professional billiard game. French women are good billiard players, and like to see all the fancy shots made by professionals as soon as they begin to attract attention. They read the billiard news in the daily papers and subscribe for journals pub- 1ished especially TOT billiardists.
 There are many expert women bil- Hard plaYets in the large cities of the United States, but they are never seen at the professional matches and seldom at the amateur contests. At the Hano- yer club. in Brooklyn, and at the Lie- derkranz women are invited and en- couraged to see the contests of national clubs
 aThat is a move in the right direction Tn the old Windsor hotel. New York, where the billiard room was right off the corridor, Patti used to stand at the entrance and watch the play for a few moments before going to her room. She never would accept a seat inside, be7 cause some men who had more money thap manners used to stand in groups and stare at her.
 Mrs. George Gould is a capital bile Hard player. So are Mrs. Almeric Pa get. Mrs. Burke Roche, Mrs. Edwin Gould and a number of other society women. Lillian Russell can play almost as well as 8 professional. She takes to the game as apart of her daily exercise to trim down her weight and keep in good condition.
 "The efficacy of billiards as d health restorer is beyond dispute. The mo- tions gone through will reach every part of the body and operate on the en- tire system They completely dispel languor and that tired feeling. The muscles are exercised an dthe blood is sent in swifter circulation through the veins.'- Washington Star.

HENRY J. CHURCH,

Henry J. Church of Co. died in Mer- iden May 24, 1903. Our comrade had passed his three score and ten .mila- stone being seventy-one years of age. He was born in East Haven. Conn.,, of a line of revolutionary warriors. His paternal grandfather was held for a time on the old Jersey prison ship, but finally escaped; and his grandfather in his mothers line was with Ethan Allen at Ticonderoga. His father served n the war in 1872, and with such ancestry is it any wonder that Church was found in the civil war.
 Early in life he located in Meriden, working on furniture and undertakers' wares. Upon his return from the army he purchased an undertaker's estab- lishment in Meriden, which soon be- came the leading house in the profess slOf. At one time he was chosen presi- dent of the State Association of Funer- al Directors.
 In public life Corporal Church com manded the confidence of all who knew him. He became an alderman. an Odd Fellow, Knight of Pythias, Royal Arch Mason, Knight Templar, and Past commander of Merriam post.
 Quiet and unassuming, careful and thoughtful, our comrade was summon ed to many homes in Meriden as one whose excellent service and gentle ways were of great value in the house of be- reavemnt.

CHARLES D. BARNES.

No name upon our rolls calls up more pleasant memories of life, or causes deeper regret at his death than that of Sergeant Charles D. Barnes of Co. B. He died in Southington May 31. 1903. The press gave unusual space to the history Of our comrade. so much in fact as perhaps to make mention of his life to-day unnecessary. But he was so well known and esteemed by us that regimental tribute is due his memory.
 It is sufficient to say that Barnes an- cestry in America dates from Long Isl- and, whither Stephen Barnes settled on his arrival from England in the 18th century. He was born ill Southington
