An Auction Party.

Philadelphia Inquirer
was given the prize in childrens con-
test
AS the children enter the parlor, hand
each one tiny bag made of bright colored
cheesecloth, drawn by silk cord and filled
with white beans. Tell each child not to
open the bag until the other children come;
this will serve TO keep the little ones won
dering what is in the bags.
Have large basket containing all sorts
OF funny toys. the more ridiculous the bet
ter, each toy wrapped in tissue paper and
tied with string. Explain to the chill
dren that there will be an auction sale of
the packages and that each bean In the
bag represents one penny. Tell them how
TO bid for the packages and start the auc-
ton. The auctioneer must be in funny cos
tune and his talk must be full of fun and
enthusiasm.
With little help from older people the
children will soon take to bidding and en-
JOY the fun. After the packages are all
bought and examined, pass two plates. on
one have little dolls dressed in different
colors, and on the other similar number OF
dolls dressed the same Tell each child to
find the one with doll dressed I'm the same
color as his doll Is dressed.
When the children are paired off in
couples have a grand march TO the dining
room. Have Il Jack Horner pie with rib
bons extending to each plate in the center
of the table. After the supper let each
child pull ribbon and receive small gift
TO take home.
Announce an auction party on the inYi-
tations so parents can help explain what
auction is TO the little ones.

otherwise, said il was desirable that the

Business Of Every Kind Is Be-
ing Resumed in Baltimore.
Insurance Companies Have Paid
Out $1O,OOO,OOO Already.

Baltimore, Feb IA strong proof
of the fact that Baltimore is gradually
resuming its normal condition was
strikingly illustrated today by the cir
cumstances that all the banks were
opened in their temporary quarters at
the usual banking hours, well supplied
with funds to meet the demands for
weekly pay rolls and for all ordinary
needs of those who have money on de-
post. Hundreds of depositors were at
the banks early today with checks to
be presented and all were promptly
cashed.
On next Monday the regular clearings
will begin and general banking opera
tions will be resumed. The vaults of all
the national banks in Baltimore have
now been opened, the last one having
been inspected today and in each the
contents were found to be absolutely
not damaged in any respect whatever.
Charles c. Homer, president of the
clearing house association, expressed
himself today as being more hopeful
than ever as to the quick restoration of
healthy financial conditions in Balti-
more.
To minimize as far as possible the
hardshfps under which the inhabitants
suffer- Mayor McLane and his assist
ants have decided to temporarily sus-
pend the collectic- G taxes and water
rents, it having been decided that the
city has enough money on hand. as the
result of large collections in January
to meet all requirements for an in
definite period.
Several insurance claims were paid
today and leading agents here say that
at least 81. 1000. 900 have already been
paid out and that many millions in
checks have been received here and are
now on deposit ready to be paid out
after some partial adjustments have
been made. They say that the big
companies have deposited a much
larger amount in New York subject to
the order of agents.
Squads of laborers from the street
cleaning department started into the
burned district today and the work OF
pulling down walls, removing debris and
digging out safes was quickly resumed
At a conference held today between
the mayor and the citizens COMMITTEES
it was decided that no call would be
made for outside assistance to relieve
the distressed situation caused by the
fire. If it is found necessary later on
the municipality will float a loan tc
meet all needs

LINCOLN AT GETTYSBURG.

abraham Lincolns Gettysburg grafton
delivered at the dedication of the Ma
tiOnal cemetery on Gettysburg battle
field, November 10, 1851
"Fourscore and seven years ago our
fathers brought forth on this continent
a new nation, conceived in liberty and
dedicated to the proposition that all men
are created equal. Now we are engaged
in a great civil war, testing whether that
nation, or any nation so conceived and
SO dedicated, can long endure We are
met on a great battle field of that war
We have come to dedicate a portion OF
that field, a final resting place for
those who here gave their lives that that
nation might live. 1t is altogether fitting
and proper that We should do this. But,
in a larger sense, we can not dedicate,
we can not eonsecrate, we can not hal
low, this ground The brave men, living
and dead. who struggled here. have con-
add or detract The world will little note,
but it can never forget what they did
here. It is for us the living, rather, to
be dedicated here to the unfinished work
which they who fought here have thus
far so nobly advanced. 1t is rather for
US to be here dedicated to the great task
remaining before US, that from these
honored dead we take increased devotion
to that cause for which they gave the
last full measure of devotion; that we
here highly resolve that these dead shall
not have died in vain; that this nation,
under God, shall have a new birth of
freedom, and that government of the
people, by the people, for the people,
shall not perish from the earth"

Woman's Suffrage association was call

WAR PRICES.
Large Number of Commodities
Affected by HI ostilities.

New York, Feb. Especial tele-
grams from correspondents of the In
ternational Mercantile Agency through
out the United States and Canada show
that extreme cold weather is RESPONSE
bile for the check to distribution of
merchandise by railways, nOtwiths tand-
ping which the total volume of the same
is greater at St. Louis and at St. Paul
than a year ago.
Baltimore bankers and merchants are
actively at work endeavoring to minirn-
ize the percentage of spring trade which
might be DETECTED to Philadelphia and
New York by the fire. Orders have al
ready been sent to New York for dry
goods and to Pittsburg for structural
steel.
War has ceased to influence the do
nestle stock market, but 1t has adj
vanced the prices of silk, tea, beef,
cereals. The money market has not
thus far responded much to the forth
coming withdrawal of government
funds to meet anticipated Panama
canal payments, nor to the extraor-
dinarily heavy demands for accommo-
dation by railroads and other corpora
tions. Sales of Americans by London
and the continent have left stocks dull
and weaker.
There is more request for structural
and other forms of steel and orders for
rails placed by the Hartman roads at
full pool prices point to the likelihood
of s28 ton being maintained.
There is a more favorable prospect
| for the mills on the reaction in the
price of raw cotton since February 1.
The government report of cotton ginned
to the middle of January dissipates the
| claims of a total crop of only 100000
bales.
Greatly needed rains have fallen in
southern California and elsewhere in
the southwestern region. Minneapolis
looks for increased exports over north
western roads to the Orient.
Canadian railroads have been unable
/ to handle all the traffic offered, but this
drawback is now being overcome.

TO END POT HUNTING.
sportsmen's League Favors Enact
mont of Special Legislation.

Columbus, o., Feb 1.-THE League
OF American Sportsmen has adjourned
to meet in Seattle in June. 1905 Reso-
lutons were adopted declaring against
spring shooting in any of the states,
and favoring the enactment of laws in
all states requiring foreign-born IN
naturalized persons to secure licenses
before they can hunt. This is aimed to
put an end to pot hunting
Following the adjournment of the
league, an organization was effected of
the national association of fish and game
Wardens and commissioners. Their
purpose is the prosecution of law
breakers and the compiling of decisions
touching their work in protecting fish
and game. W. F. Scott, Helena, Mont,
was elected president.

STOCKS Little Affected.

New York, Feb. 12.-The smallness of
the effect produced in the stock market
by the Baltimore calamity and the out
break of war has caused surprise and sat
isfaction in the financial world. The con-
tinued large borrowings by railroads is
viewed with disfavor by operators in
stocks and the declining tendency of rail-
road earnings adds to this feeling. The
assurance that the borrowed money will
find its way into expenditures for mater
ials has been a sustaining influence upon
stocks of some companies which supply
such material, including United States
Steel The prospect of large demand in
the rebuilding of Baltimore also has been
an influence. The war has been of little
apparent Influence.

RAISES A POINT.
Senator BurtOn's Attorney
Would Quash Indictment.

St. Louis, Feb. 12.-United States Sena-

Judge Crum, has filed a demurrer in the
United States district court setting forth

contention that neither the postmaster
