BROAD HORSE TRADE.
Light Receipts and Steady Demand
Firms Market for All Glasses.

Chicago, May 16.-Trade conditions
hold nominally steady at last weeks
prices. Eastern demand continues
broad for heavy business offerings,
and although current prices are at
the high level of the season, the re-
ceipts move freely at very narrow
fluctuations. Heavy business offer
cred from the Indifferent demand that
was so prominent at the opening of
the spring trade, the outside demand
being of ample proportions to clear the
receipts at $175@215 for the bulk of
the arrivals, with extra choice quality
selling higher according to weight,
finish and soundness. Express and ice
companies are filling liberal orders at
$13O@l70 and upward. Good wagon
brisk sellers at s11O@14O and upward
for extra quality kinds. Eastern deal
ers are urgent buyers Of drivers at
S160@3S0 and UP. The southern de-
mand for medium drivers and general
purpose horses continues of good vol
ume at $75@150. Supply is hardly

STRAYER SCHOOL
Of SHORTHAND
Business College That Has
Been Successful From
the Start.

s. Irving Srayer. owner and founder
of Strayers Business College, was thir-
teen years ago unknown as ar educator.
In September. 1892. Mr.. Srrayer y ent to
Baltimore and rented smal rooms. with
four typewriters. He started out with
the idea OF equipping young men and
young girls 20 command larger salaries
than they are getting lie held 10 the
idea all the way through that there are
hundreds OF young persons everywhere
who are willing 70 spend their spare
hours i'm equipping themselves 10 nght
the battle OF life with greater success.
His beliefs along this line have been
justified. 90 Is thought. by the growth Of
bis school fin this comparatively short
time. The annual enrolment at the Bal
timore branch now carries a thousand
students.
Mr. StTdyer was so successful in Bal
umore that he determined 20 open sim
liar schools in Philadelphia and Wash
lugtOn. These branch schools have
shown that merit viii WIN success any
where. particularly In Washington.
The local branch OF Straycrs Business
College is located at the corner Of EIev-
enJh and + streets northwest. where
Mr- STayer has direct supervision He
has always conducted his school not
upon commercial lines solely. While he.
OF course. looks 10 his own financial bet

ment that his college is a genuine bene-
III and philanthropy 20 those who stand
IN need OF training IN shorthand, book
keeping, typewriting. correspondence,
and the various other lines Of work of
this kind.
Mr.. Strayer takes special care and
pride in his civil service courses. These
are designed to enable persons to pass
the Government examination for posi-
ti5ns as tyDewriters, stenOEraphers. and
boOkkeepers.
Every line Of office business IS taught
in the Strayer schools, from penmansHip
TO bookkeeping and from card index I'll

in a students study Is the privilege of
practice. In the typewriting department
the Strayer school furnishes its students
with typewriters, which may be taken
10 their homes.

work by T. W. DonOhO, vice president
and general manager. and P. J. Har-
