North Birmingham, November 16.-(Spe-
cjal)-Two large industrial plants are
practically assured fon this city, to be

1t Is said that the chief drawing card
which is bringing these industries Is the
cheap and fine supply of water, which Is
furnished by the municipality. To the
large stream which flows from Hawkins
springs the output OF two wells has just
been added, and larger and deeper one
is now being bored. The water is pumped
from the wells to the spring. and then
again lifted up to n large reservoir, CIV
ing the whole surrounding country the
best supply by long odds in the district.
With this and an almost perfect electric
plant furnishing current at cost, 1t Is not
surprising that industries seek to enter
the sturdy little 4-year-old town.

puN,s REVIEW.

New York, November 16.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly Review of trade tomorrow
will say:
Trade expands under the stimulating
influence of colder weather and mercan-
tile collections improve, although rates
for money continue high. Travelling sales
men send In large orders to leading dis
tributing points, but movements of mer-
chandise are still retarded by inadequate
transportation facilities. Seasonable lines
Of wearing apparel and holiday goods at
tract most attention, while staple articles
of every description are in steady de-
mand. Current business is good and pros
poets for the future bright. Labor dis
putes reached amicable settlement in most
cases, wages being advanced in numer-
Gus transporting and manufacturing in
dustries. The most striking development
of the week was the unprecedented out
put of pig iron In conjunction with large
imports and advancing prices. indicating
the greatest activity ever attained by
steel mills. Other Industrial reports were
scarcely less gratifying.
Textile industries are active, but the pri-
mary market for cotton goods has quoted
down after the conclusion of initial pur-
chases. There Is no evidence of weak
ness as result of this apparent apathy
and the amount of business already placed
gives ASSURANCE llidL thtit 10 nv inliiitu-
late prospect of accommodating stocks in
the hands of producers. In order to meet
the demand for those lines of cotton goods
in greatest request, it has been neces-
sary to divert much machinery from
less popular goods, notably those usual
ly taken freely by the export trade.
While the wooden goods division is still
quiet on the whole. there is evidence of
Increased activity in some departments,
and buyers are complaining of the delay
that attends deliveries of dress goods
New England footwear manufacturers
report especial activity in ~oring lines of

most grades are very firm.
Leading commodity markets have de-
veloped strength during the past week.
especially those in which speculative OPP
rations for the short account mad been
carried to extremes. Recovery in wheat
had the additional support of unsatisfac-
tory receipts at the northwest. Flour out

with the milling returns of year ago.

Claim Nearly Cost Life.

Fred McNulty, of this city, had q
terrible experience while holding down
a claim which he has several miles
east of here. He went to the claim
just before the big blizzard of last
week. The weather previously had
been mild, and McNulty had no store
of fuel in the shack. The storm was
so fierce that he could not make his
way home, SO he went to bed in order
to keep from freezing to death. For
three days the storm ragged, and Nc
Nulty lay covered up to his ears, with
out bite to eat and only small
quantity Of water. When at last the
storm subsidized he made his way to a
neighbor's, mile distant, freezing his
face and ears while en- route. When
he finally reached Minot he was com.
PEELED to take to his bed as a result

DisFIGURlNG SKIN HUMoR.
Impossible to Get Employment, as
Face and Body Were Covered with
Sores-cured by Cuticura.

"Since the year 1894 I have been
troubled with a very bad case of &C.
zema which have spent hundreds OF
dollars trying to cure, and I went to
the hospital, but they failed to cure
me, and it was getting worse all the
time. Five weeks ago my wife bought
a box of Cuticura Ointment and one
cake of Cuticura Soap, and am
pleased to say that I am now COM
pletely cured and well. It was i'm
possible for me to get employment,
as my face, head and body were COW
cred with it. The eczema first ap-
peared on the top of my head, and it
had worked all the way around down
the back of my neck and around to my
throat, down my body and around the
hips. It itched so I would be obliged
to scratch it, and the flesh was raw.
I am now all well, and I will be
pleased to recommend the Cuticura
Remedies to all persons who wish
speedy and permanent cure of skin
diseases" Thomas M. Rossiter, 290

NOT LOOKING FOR ADVICE.
"Phln" Had His Own Reasons for
Most Peculiar Action.

Some years ago there lived in the
village of Vienna, Me-, q man by the
name of Phineas Jones, commonly
known at "Phin." Among other faults
"Phin" had an unfortunate love for
something more fiery than soda water
On one occasion he had driven to
Augusta, about 20 miles distant, and
during his day in town had imbibed
more than was good either for his
equanimity or his clearness of brain.
Returning at nightfall to the livery
stable where he had put up his outfit,
he undertook to harness his own
horse, to the delight of the stable
boys.
He managed to get the harness on,
after much trouble, but when he un.
dertook to place the horse between
the thills, he led her in with her aston
ished face toward the dasher. One of
the stable boys, convulsed with laugh
ter, called out:
Here, 'Phln, hadn't you better turn
your horse 'round?"
"Phin," in no mood to brook inter-
ference, faced the boy with maudlin
dignity, and, steadying himself against
the wagon-wheel, replied, solemnly:
Young man (hic), p'raps you don't
know (hic) which way I'm goin'!"

The American Adder.

A full-grown adder may measure
two feet in length and about six inches
around the thickest part of its body.
Its movements are sluggish, and of
course the universal idea prevailing
among the natives of this country that
1t is capable of transferring its head
from one extremity to the other once
every six months is due simply to SUI
perstition. The fact is that the tail of
this snake does not terminate in a
point as with ophidians generally, but
is stumpy and resembles the head so
much that it is difficult for an OBJ.

Apple Orchard Made Money.

The Dover Sunshine publishes an
interesting story of success in orchard
ing in that rich irrigated section of
Benton county. Eleven years ago, &C.
cording to the editor, one of the pres
ent prominent citizens began making
home. He had spant Is years as a
railroad man, and desired a change.
His little tract of six acres was set to
apple trees. There were but two va.
rieties, the pippins and Spitzenbergs
In three years the trees began bearing
fruit. At the end of ten years the
total income from that orchard was
$685.. The land originally cost $55
an acre, and an additional $45 an acre
for clearing and planting.-Seattle
