THE ISLAND ON WHICH COLUMBUS
FIRST LANDED

FIRST LANDED
According to Irving, Columbus
landed upon one of the Bahamas
which was called by the natives
Guannahani pronounced Gwah-nah-
ah-nee) by the Spaniards San Saliva
dor. Exactly which one of these is
lands is the ancient Guanahani can
not now be determined. At present
the weight of opinion seems to be in
favor of Waiting Island.
AN ABRUPT TRANSITION.
Chpter XII. closes with the asser-
ton that Columbus left the island
of San Salvador in the evening (of
October 14), being impatient to find
Cipango, or Japan, which he thought
lay to the south.
Chapter XIII. informs us that on
the 18th of November Columbus
turned his course to the east-south-
east, to follow back the direction
of the coast. Reading carefully, we
find that he has reached the West
Indies proper, and has been explor-
ing the coast of Cuba. We expe-
rience real disappointment when we
learn that he came so near finding
out hal he had not discovered the
mainland of Ashland yet failed.
During his month of exploration
of the islands of Cuba, Hayti and
others, he is is quite confident that
he will soon come upon the city of
the Great Khan with its houses roof
ed with gold; he is eagerly looking
for the marvellous treasures of gold
and precious stones of which he has
read. From answers to the questions
which he puts to the natives, he un-
derstands that this wonderful coun-
try is just farther on--sometimes
in one direction, sometimes in an
other, but always farther on.
COLUMBUS RETURN.
On his return voyage, Columbus
remained two days at the island of
st. Mary's, one of the Azores. Here
he waited for a dreadful storm to
abate. Here the superstitious sail
ors had an opportunity to pay the
solemn vows they had made while
offering petitions to be delivered
from the violence of wind and waves.
AS soon as possible after their land
ing, they marched in humble process
sion, ~barefooted, and clad only in
their shirts, to the shrine of the Vir-
gin, each bearing a lighted wax
taper to be presented to the shrine.
On this island the Portuguese
governor jealous that Columbus dis
coveries had not been made under
the flag of Portugal, attempted to
detain the Admiral. The latter, up
on producing his papers from Fer

Representative Hog Sales.
A few representative hog sales were
made as follows:
The Horse Market.

Though the book shows a decrease
of horses, compared with week ago
there has been a slight increase n
actual market offerings. The book
shows a total OF 2,92S for the week
thus far, 1854 for the same time last
week and 2,202 for the same time a
year ago Aside from this difference
in receipts market conditions are much
the same as last week. Demand is
fairly good for all classes. but even at
the apparently high prices here, ex-
perience of shippers in the past few
weeks has not been altogether rosy.
Farmers are averse to selling at a time
when spring work is upon them ana
are inclined to place a false value on
their holdings, not caring to sell at all.
Transient trade has been the means
of sustaining the market for the past
week or two, but this feature is not
dependable. Prices for good to choice
heavy drafters range from $175 @2b3
and upward for show quality, but in
placing values, farmers should bear in
mind that these high priced animals
must be absolutely sound. in the first
place, and further, must undergo a
finishing process entaillng a heavy ex-
Ipense. -

South Gets Good Bulls.

Chicago, April 16--A correspondent
for the Livestock World writes:
breeders will be interested to know
that more registered bulls have been
shipped to the big Texas ranches this
spring than at any previous time.
''The shipments have also been heavy
to all parts of the state, showing the
intention of the rancnmen to be on the
increase in favor of breeding up the
herds.
According to the Beeville (Tex. Bee
the movement of Texas cattle to Cuba
is now about to begin which will take
out large number of cattle from "a
district where they can best be spared.
Over $4,000 bovines are now being
rounded up in central and west Texas
to be shipped to Galveston, where they
will be loaded on ships and sent across
the water to Cuba as fast as they can
be handled.

Unseasonably Cool Weather the
Chief Drawback to Still
Irregular Trade
GENERAL OUTLOOK ONLY FAIR
Industrial Situation Not Entirely Fa-
vorable. With Immediate Business
Not Up to Expectations, But Good
Orders for Future Delivery Large -
The Iron and Steel Industry.

New York, April 16.-Bradstreet's to-
day says:
Trade is still irregular with unsea-
sonably cool weather the chief but not
the only drawback.
Most measures off trade point to a
smaller volume of business than a year
slight decrease may be shown in gross
railway earnings for Marsh the first
quarters earnings will fail Mttle be-
hind year ago. and that the railroads
have so far this year almost held their

The industrial situation has not been
entirely favorable. Iron and steel Ger
calls, coke lumber and naval stores in
terests note either increased activity in
production and consumption or improv-
ed demanded from various sources but
the cotton goods industry is curtailing
production steadily, there is less activ
|ity in shoe manufacturing and the
building and other industries are mar
red by LABOR troubles. Inc WOODEN
goods demand is not UP to expectations
but the strength of a large number of
staples. such as hides, leather, iron and
Isteel, cheese, tea, flour, copper and lead
is notable feature.
While spring trade has been disap-,
pointing In many lines and immediate
business is not up to expectations, the
number of markets reporting good ord
ers for future delivery is large. Collec-
lions show little or no improvement.
Wheat, including flour exports for
the week ending April IA. aggregate
1,213,S55 bushels, against 1,S54,370 bu-
shells last week and 2.977,T77 bushels

New York, April 16.-R. G. Dun &

says:
Tardy spring weather following an
unusually severe winter makes 1t dif-
ficult to restore satisfactory trade con-
ditions. but it is encouraging to find
at many points that this unreasonable
weather is the only cause of complafnt.

was that of this morning
During the first half OF the week the
market held strong tone and prices
worked up 10 to Is cents, but with
Thursday and Friday the most of this
has been lost and there Is nothing in
the situation at present that can be
construed as favoring permanent
higher prices in the near future. In
spite of the light receipts and de-
tenioration in weight and quality the
packing interests are still confident
that 1t will be only a matter of a short
time at the most until here will be q

connection with poor market for
