Trade Report.

Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review of
Trade says:
Interruptions Of industrial progress
by the holiday, labor conflicts and in
clement weather again produced a
somewhat unsatisfactory trade situa-
ton. Yet the money market is easy
and accommodation readily obtained
in legitimate business channels. Liza
bilities of mercantile failures are COM
paratively small, indicating that most
concerns have prepared for a quiet
season and are able to withstand a
period of diminished sales and tardy
payments. This conservative attitude
is the fundamentally strong feature OF
the situation, and when business re-
wives there will be no pressure to dis
pose of heavy stocks of undesirable
goods More manufacturing plants
have reduced hours or wages, and sew
eral strikes have added to the army
Of unemployed.
Commercial failures in the United
States were 230.

TEXAS SUITABLE FOR DATES
Opinion of Syrian on the Growth OF
the Palm in America.


According to views entertained by
Josef Hahmet, a Syrian who has set
tied near Waco, the northwestern
counties of Texas are exactly suited in
all respects for the production of the
date palm and would afford settlers of
that portion of the Lone Star State an
unfailing source Of revenue, writes the
Dallas News.
Mr.. Hahmet said: 'The date palm
should be grown far enough from the
ocean to insure it from humid bree.es
and give it hot dry summers for the
ripening of its fruit. 1t wants plenty
of water, however, and no country is
better supplied with water undernea til
and sunshine overhead than the west
ern and northwestern portion of Tex
as. 1t would not be new to the Uni
ted States, for Arizona and California
are producing dates successfully. In
New Mexico date palm offshoots were
planted this year extensively. So far
as 1 am able to learn no one, other
than florists, have introduced that val
liable plant into this State, so that he
who attempts it here will earn the
credit of adding another crop to the
productions of his State.
"Once established, a date palm Or
chard lasts for centuries, and when
planted where nitrogen and phosphates
are abundant, provided there are
water and hot sun, an abundant yiel,!
is certain. Water can be obtained in
any of the counties west and north
west of Cisco at depths varying FROM
thirty-five to fifty feet. The soil is re
tentive and entertainments are all that
are needed for reservoirs, with just
enough excavation to get the material
for the entertainments. One average
tree should yield 200 pounds of fruit
annually after attaining an age of
eight years. High grade trees will ex-
coed the average given perhaps 10C
per cent. The best palm orchards are
planted forty feet between the rows
and thirty-five feet apart; any other
fruit or any crop can be successfully
grown between the palm trees. One
acre of date palms, together with other
crops that can be grown on the same
space at the same time, will support O
family. In Africa and in Asia date
palms occupy pasture lands and are
not hurt by the cattle, sheep or cam
els. After a date palm orchard is es
tablished it is hard to injure it by any
process. Date palm trees are beauti
fuI and they improve the health M
those who reside near them"

THE SUCCOTH CARPENTER.
An Odd Character of the Jewish Quar-
ter in Great Cities.

The oldest industry in the metropo-
lis is that of a succoth carpenter, who
finds employment one week Of the year
in the Ghetto among the orthodox
Jews. His work is done in the fort
night which precedes the Feast of the
Tabernacles and consists in building
odd little booths known as succoths in
the back yards of the tenement-houses.
The feast of the tabernacles is sup
posed to commemorate the time during
which the children of Israel wandered
In the wilderness, and probably also
their sojourn in the land of Egypt.
During this period they lived more or
less in the open, which fact is symbol
lied by the booth having no roof, or
else a covering of evergreens and bull
rushes. According to another school,
the booths represent the time when
the Israelites came in such numbers
that they were unable to get into the
temple, and so built temporary shelters
around the sacred edifice.
The succoth should be boxlike in
shape, not less than six feet in height,
| "
should be made of the cheapest and
fiimsiest building material to indicate
what it represents. Some of the build
ers take pride in making the structures
as ramshackle as possible. Others use
the poorest materials, but saw and fiji
them with so much skill that the fin
ished -succoth Is neat and attractive
There is but little commercial element
In the industry. The employer sup
plies the wood or the builder sells /
to him at cost, while for the work o.
setting it up his price is nearly always
so cents. Charitable Hebrews will
often employ two or three builders an(
pay each the same as the rest.
Here during the festival week tn
. family takes its meals and assemble
every day for prayer. 1t is not at al
unpleasant in fair weather. but when
as aften happens, it rains, the situation
is decidedly uncomfortable. On rain,
day symbolism vanishes, as rain
practically unknown in the stony des
ert where the Israelites wandered age
ago.
Still more suggestive is the way i
which the prayers are said. Instea
of kneeling or of clasping the hands
the one who prays holds a fruit, usl
ally a pomegranate, in one hand an
bulrush or water reed in the othe
At the end of the prayer each of thes
u is shaken twice and then handed owe
to the next member of the family I'll
r water reeds are supposed to commem
k rate the finding of Moses in the bu
n rushes, and the fruit the promise
d the Lord to give them a land flown
/ with milk and honey.-New You

Stand Pat on M0rm0ns.

A hitch has occurred in the Reed
Smoot Mormon investigation, which
was to have been resumed by the Sen
ate sub committee, before which start
ling revelations concerning polygamy
were made, and it is broadly intimated
that there was secret understanding
between the republicans and the Nor
mons to the effect that if Utah went
republican the investigation would be
abandoned.
The members of the Senate sub COM
mittee were to have met in Chicago
Immediately after the election this
week and proceed to Utah. Senator
Dubois, of Idaho, left his home in the
far west, as soon as he had voted, for
Chicago. En-route he received tele-
gram from Senator Burrows, of Michi-
gan, chairman of the special commit
tee, informing him that 1t was impos
sible to get the members together. 1t
is believed. therefore, that the plan of
gathering testimony among the Nor
mons before the opening of Congress
next month will be abandoned.

Prosperity is now assured-it cannot
miss fire. Some years ago when every
body in the common herd thought
money was scarce, and hard times
were caused thereby, the wise ones told
US that there was plenty of money, it
was confidence that was lacking. Con.
f1dence being on hand in great album
dance, now let's see whether or not
there will be any excuse. It is certain
that political sore places will be great
ly soothed by business prosperity and
lots of money. A ten dollar bill will
cure most any political bruise, hun
dred dollar bill real sore place, and a
thousand dollar bill-well to think of
that is like the old darkey when he

A HOUSEHOLD WORD.
"QuIncy Adams Sawyer" a Most Widely
Talked of Book and Piay.

The great rural play Quincy Adams
Sawyer which will be seen at the
Staunton opera house on Tuesday.
January "a, 1905. is, as everybody
knows. dramatization of a novel.
The two, the book and the play. may
be set down as among the most widely
talked of books and plays in America
today. In the four years that the
novel has been on sale it has been pur
chased by over 800, 600 persons and has
been read, probably, by more than
treble that number. In the three sea-
sons that the play has been presented
more than two million people have
seen it one or more times. This is
certainly record worthy of more
than passing note.
As simplicity was the keynote of
Mr.. Pidgin's book so is it of the play.
A young Boston lawyer goes to a
country town and falls in love with a
beautiful girl who has become blind.
He wins her heart and restores her
sight. This with five other love stories,
mostly humorous, constitutes the
story of the play. 1t is in the incidents
that accompany this simple plot that
lies the charm of the whole. Pathos
is plentiful and true. but wholesome
comedy is the real body of the enter
tainment. There are more downright
hearty laughs in "Qlincy Adams
Sawyer" than in any rural play ever
staged and they are all legitimate.
The company carries the whole pro
ductiOn which is entirely new this sea
son and more elaborate than ever.
