A Beautiful Tribute.

"Arbor Lodge homestead was settled in
June, 1855. by ]. Sterling Morton and his
wife. Caroline A. Morton. Together they
lived hereon up to June %, 1881, when the
light went out"
At any rate, he said softly to his aunt
that evening: II am sure father would ap-
prove of my decision.
When the light went out'-those words
are the reference by Mr.. Morton to the
death of his noble wife, than whom there

lated that on occasions she had the prod

distributed among the needy in the hard
times, and many poor home in Omaha
was cheered by her kindly and thoughtful
assistance. While her husband was often
cordially hated, this woman was loved and
respected. model mother and a most low
able character.
That j. Sterling Morton fairly worshiped
this good woman makes him admired for
such devotion even by his enemies. The
story of how he impressed his children at
the time of her death has been told before,
but it adds to the explanation of the Nor
ton character which has attracted Presi-

There are not many stories about Paul

PEACH GROWERs MEr.

The committee appointed by the
meeting Of fruit growers at Adairsville
on July %, to investigate the facts
which caused the great loss of fruit in
that section during the past season by
reason of the insufficient railroad ia
cilities met. and it was resolved by the
committee not to- institute any inves-
tigation into the facts. but to leave the
matter at present without action, so
far as the committee Is concerned. At
an informal meeting of quite number
of local fruit growers the sentiment
was clearly expressed that the fruit
growers of North Georgia should take
steps at once to perfect a plan of or
ganization looking to the reduction of
freights and the better handling of the
fruit crop. At this meeting, Col. Gray
said: I'm this immediate section not

New York, Sept. 16.-Early efforts
to support prices of stocks to-day. SEEM
ed to prove futile, and there was a
time when the market seemed to be
abandoned to the liquidators. But the
selling diminished largely at the lower
level and encouraged the friends of
higher prices to renew their support
ing tactics. The news did not offer a
clear explanation of these varying op-
erations. The Changers and Pacifics
were under heavy pressure during the
first half of the session in spite of the
reactionary movement of grains. The
market sank to lower level, with
Pennsylvania the sole reliance for sup.
port of prices. That stock ultimately
gave way with the rest of the mar
ket.
The extension of the strike amongst
employees of the United States Steel
Corporation in the Mahoning Valley
bore on those stocks and forced them
to a point under last night, with sem
timental effect on the whole list. The
steel stocks. however, resumed the
leadership Of the recovery in the mar
ket later; sharing with Reading in that
respect. Railroad gross earnings for
the first week in September make a
favorable comparison with. the CORE
spending week of last year, the ratio
of increase for roads thus far report
ing reaching 40 per cent. The rising
rate for money seemed to disturb spec
ulative sentiment for time, but its
influence decreased during the day. The

duced a substantial recovery in the
whole market. The closing was irreg-
