 New York. May 11-Bradstreets sum mary of the state of trade tomorrow will say:
 While cooler weather has tenipor- fabrics. and perhaps severely affected fruits and early vegetables, events or the week have improved the great basic conditions. Growing grain Is in few points, continue to expand; the la Tor situation Is certainly more favor able; manufacturing in all lines the country over is active; new eonstruc- ton work Is of marked proportions; demand for material is heavy: orders for steel rails are large: the insurance situation Is easier and so are money rates. while collections. save at a few centers. tend to improve. In fact un- deriving conditions could hardly be better.
 The labor situation especially shows marked improvement; The anthracite M will go to work shortly. The. bitu- nlinous strike Is not entirely cleared up but the lake traffic strike which adjusted and much congestion and di- version Of freight from water to rail routes has been cbviated. Troubles in the building trades too have been very generally settled and that line now Is apparently having the greatest year in It's history. The scarcity of labor in fact is still the only drawback to an apparently boundless activity In nearly all lines.
 Cold weather. with frosts of varying intensity, which has retarded crop de- velopments, Is reported to have done some damage to fruits and vegetables, may necessitate some replanting of cotton in the north part of the cotton belt ing May. 10. number lS0, against l39 last week and 15s in the like. week of 1905.

THE UNcROWNED QUEEN.

Mary Eliza Betsy Smith
Thought woman's rights were not myth.
Her life had only just begun;
Shed reached the age of twenty-one.
She would not marry-no. not she!
She'd rather INDEPENDENCE.
She said that love was balderdash;
But. being very short of cash
And having no old rich relation.
She had TO take a situation.
A dry goods store she first essayed.
Although she rather baked at trade.
Here she was treated like slave =
Until she'd one foot in the grave.
She gave that up and blossomed forth
In something fitted for her worth
Companion to lady, then.
With salary increased to ten!
All, this was really very good!
She'd lots of cash and lots of food
But here again twas very plain
Shed heaps of reason to complain,
For, ever at her mistress call.
She really was no one at all.
Maybe above the servant maid,
But that was all that could be said
One day she woke up to the fact
That there was something still she lacked
To gain the liberty she craved
II woman's rights were to be saved.
Her trammelS quickly off she shook
And straightway took a place as cook.
And now it is her vaunted boast
She rules the mistress house and roast:
She bosses all. and that's the pith
OF womans rights, says Mary Smith.

Vaudeville at the Phillips.

Character changes, superior vocal
work, pleasing conversational work, a
bright little comedietta, illustrated
songs, character comedy, a musical
skit, motion pictures and a great deal
of talking and singing are included in
the vaudeville bill that is offered to
patrons of the New Phillips this week,
and which comes with the best of rec
concentrations. Patrons of the house
have been greatly pleased to find how
comfortable it is possible to keep the
house by the use of the eight electric
fans that have been installed. so that
the warmest of weather need not in
terfere with the attendance in the
least, nor has it done so. Indications
are that the bill secured for this week
will prove of most pleasing nature.
