 appearance of brokers offices this
 morning indicated the arrival in the | field of force of the class of buyers
 known in Wall street as bargain hunters" Buying of this class was very heavy and formed a positive sup porting factor in the market. Much l greater was it's sentimental effect in re-
 assuring holders of stocks that the | frenzied selling that was done yester- day at the extreme declines was an un- | necessary sacrifice. This buying serv- | ed to correct the impression of the ut ter prostration of investment demand,
 which was one of the gloomiest portents
 of yesterdays panic stricken finging ! away of stocks. But the readjustment of sentiment was not achieved without
 an exertion of large degree of main force in the market This came in the shape of liberal buying orders distrib- uted in the principal stocks for ac- count of large banking house, as

It was kaleidoscopic change from Thursdays condition of demoralization, when stocks were being thrown over without regard to the prices they would bring.
The daily morning journal and courier., 1907-03-16

One element which restrained some from buying was that, with money to invest and the sense that stocks are cheap on the basis of value alone, pos Bibly the situation was without prece- dent, and that new conditions were be- ing created which might cause an en- tire readjustment of old ideas of what constitutes value.

The buoyancy continued practically throughout the session, and was at tended by transactions of enormous volume. The fact that no failures re- suited from Thursdays smash was one of the most potent factors in establish ing the high afternoon range.

Time money rates advanced sharply yesterday to per cent. for thirty days, 1-2aS for sixty and ninety days, and 6 1-2 per cent. for other maturities. The supply of time money was so limited as to make ia very difficult for borrow CTS to get what they needed. Nearly all the banks kept what they had out on call, and did not seem inclined to tie up funds on time. Call loans were re- newed at 12 per cent. and averaged 8 and 10 per cent. for fresh loans.

Take Murderous Indians.

Two Iaqu Indians arrested by
Sheriff Saxon Thursday have been

Innocent Amusements.

THE old question of just where to
draw the line on amusements con-
tinues to trouble the progressive
spirits in the Methodist Episcopal
church The conservatives are not
at all troubled, though it would seem
to be high time TO modify the church
code which places innocent card
playing. dancing and theatergoing on
the same level with offenses that are
so serious and immoral as to disturb
the peace of the city and to demand
the attention of the Criminal Court.
The old school attacks these venal
delights of youth with an animosity
that might, with greater propriety,
perhaps, be characterized as veno-
mostly.
Some of the preachers who are in
the debatable ground between the
progressives and the strict adherents
of the discipline are willing 10 con-
cede that the theater might not be
so bad if the plays of William
Shakespeare were presented. But
even these plays can scarcely be pre-
sen:ed without much winnowing AS
matter of fact there are many mod
ern plays not only interesting but
educative in their scope-and how
can instruction be more deity and
pleasantly conveyed than in play?
that are altogether unobjectionable
in tone and language.
AS matters stand 1t is difficult TO
say just what license the church
should give TO youth in its hunger
for the drama. Certain shows surely
ought TO be tabooed, just as certain
books are not for youth-if for any
to read. But yet there is great deal
of leg and larynx' work on the
stage, drawing big houses, which
may be silly and trivial, but still is
really not near so bad as. the posters
on the bill boards would lead many
to suppose. Fortunately, too, like
the musical melange often furnished
in the vaudeville houses, it can easily
be forogtten.-Indianapolis News

Death of Iohn Blain.

The people OF Plymouth and vi
cinity were shocked to learn of the
death of John Blain which occurred
at his home in this city Friday night
at II o'clock of pneumonia after
weeks illness 1t will be remem-
bered that his wife Mrs. Eva Blain.
died suddenly on Saturday morning
just one week prior to his death. Her
death Frustrated him, and pneumonia
setting in, he gradually grew, worse
until death relieved him as stated.
John Blain was born in Seneca
county, New York, September "a,
1886, the youngest son Of Gideon
and Sarah Bryant Blain Early in
manhood, with his parents, he re-
moved to Michigan, and shortly after
went to Leavenworth, Kansas, where
he engaged for time in the drug
business, but not being satisfied with
that locality, concluded to look else
where, and Plymouth having been
represented to him as a desirable To-
cation, he came here about 1878,
and some time afterwards engaged in
the mercantile trade in, company
with Sherman c. Wheeler, which
partnership was dissolved a year or
two later Mr. Blain's parents hav-
ing in the meantime moved here, he,
with his father, and his brother, Jer-
nv. went into the drug business in
the room on the southwest corner OF
Michigan and Caro- streets where
he continued the business for more
than thirty years.
He leaves surviving him two sons,
Clement +. of Dakota and Gideon,
w. Blain of indianapolis; and two
sisters, Mrs c. R. Cooper and Mrs
Sarah Blain- Woodrow of Plymouth.
Mr.. Blain's life during the fifty
years he lived among the people of
Plymouth, was that OF a gentleman
in all that the word implies. He
was a member of ST. Thomas's Epis-
copal church and prominent
churchman of that denomination. In
the business and social affairs of life,
he acted we'll his part, and he and
his good wife who has just passed
on before will be greatly missed in
all the walks of life in which they
moved

Berlin Children Starving: School
Laws are Cause.

The municipality of Bevlin Is fac
ing serious problem in connection
with the supply of food OF thousands
of virtually starving children attend
ing the primary schools in Berlin,
whose numbers have been greatly
augmented this year in consequence
of the industrial inactivity
In the first week of December, ac-
cording to official statistics from 245
out of the 2s5 primary schools, no
fewer than 1,947 children attended
school in most cases without break
fast and in all cases without the pros
pect of obtaining a midday meal at
home. OF those 4,49s receive a Simple
daily meal from the fourteen cam
teens. The other 7,449 are totally un-
provided for.
The question of the city's respon-
sbiiity for the children has now been
raised by the socialist in the munich
pal council, who propose that the
council should in future undertake
the task
Altogether for the feeding of the
10000 starving little ones during the
winter S37.50O will be necessary, and
the council is to be asked to vote
100000 to make up the amount re-
CURED and place it at the disposition
OF the society for administration.
This course is suggested in order
to obviate the loss of civic rights en-
tailed by the children's parents
should their offspring be directly fed
by the authorities.
Parents who do not send their
children to school are fined unless
they can give medical authority for
keeping them at home Therefore
poor parents send their children to
school. even though foodless and
