COMMERCIAL REVIEW.

r. G. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review Of
Trade says:
Higher temperature is still needed to
bring out full Spring activity at many
points, but improvement is dscerned in
almost all departments. Mercantile pay
ments are also more prompt, which adds
materially to the feeling OF confidence.
Railway earnings, which have been fall
ing behind in comparison with last year,
were 81 per cent. larger for The first week
OF March and there is comparatively little
complaint Of freight congestion. Large
farm reserves of corn and oats are NOT
accompanied by depressed prices and the
small wheat stocks are neutralized by
most profitable quotations.
Good progress is noted in conditions
at pig iron furnaces and steel mills. Com
tracts cover deliveries many months 10
advance and a large sale is rumored.
Prices are well maintained and the lead
ing interest is expected to make a gen.
eral increase OF 10 per cent. in wages on
April l.
Failures this week numbered $50 in
the United States against 22o last year,
and 70 in Canada compared with 2r a
year ago.
Bradstreet's says:
Wheat, including flour, exports for the
week ending March 10 are 8o5,742 BUSH

this week last year; 2,3o5,soS in 1903 and

One can no more Judge of Christ

Suggestive Thoughts.
} Can you think of any other person
in the worlds history that would have
dared to call himself the Bread OF
life, and the world would gladly admit
his claim?
The quiet hour for spiritual food
taking is as necessary as the meal
hours for physical food.
You cannot feed the brain with Ice
cream, nor the muscles with soda
water; no more can you feed the soul
with material things.
The wise man will see where his
body is weak and will eat and exer-

will the Christian seek out those
Bible portions and that gospel work
which will best meet his spiritual
needs.
illustrations.
Physicians say that most men eat
too much, clogging the systef with
undigestible food. Christians will
not eat too much spiritual food if they
put in practice at once all that they
learn from Christ.
1t has been proved that food eaten
without an appetite is poorly digested
or not digested at all. Get up an
appetite for spiritual food!
Violent exercise is forbidden i'm

Sweet, the supreme court Of the

case, and the result has been each

There have been but few other
cases in which a murderer with

ably and p%ersistently defended in
the courts. Without hope of
remuneration, Rooney's attorney,
w. S. Stambaugh, assisted
through part Of the trial BY B. F.
Sapulding, conducted the defense,
even carrying an appeal to the
highest tribunal in the land.
The crime for which Rooney
was convicted occurred on the

August, 1902. In company. with
another man, whose identity to.
this day is unknown, Rooney at

and in the fracas was shot and
killed. Rooney's partner made
his escape but the murderer was
overpowered before he had gone
more than a few feet from where
his victim lay on the ground in the
throes of death.
Rooney has always maintained.
his. innocence of the murder of
Sweet. He has always claimed
that it was his partner who fired
the fatal shot but all along he has
declined to give the name or any
Information which would lead to
the arrest of the other man.
The son of a New York saloon
keeper, and left to shift for him
at an early age, Rooney has asso-.
GATED with criminals all of his life.
His earliest recollections were
scenes of crimes and his early
companions were offsprings of
criminals, SO it is little wonder
that, in spite of the aid of a bene-
violent association, he should have
become c a typical "yeggman'' and
wind up his career in a peniten-
tiary and probably on the gal
lows.
