Famine TightenS Its Grip.
Cannibalism in It's Most Awful Form
is Reported From China.
BY E. r. TOMBSTONE.

When appeals for help for the fam
ine-stricken Chinese were first issued
to the American public it was stated
that as the months went on destitution
would grow more pronounced, starva-
tion would claim more victims, hor-
rors would be piled onshorror's head.
1t was further stated that no allevia-
tion from the natural sources of sup
ply-the farm lands-could be ex-
pected until late in June, mayhap not
until the coming autumn.
There has been no reason, at any
time, produced from any source, to
change or modify these advance
statements. Never has China's need
been so great as now; never have the
contributions from generous Ameri-
cans been more welcome or desired;
never has a dollar been so sure as
now of saving human being from
death, destitution, suffering.
A few days ago the Christian Her.
aid received the following cablegram

Shaking Him In.

A young married lady one morning
gave her husband sealed letter,
which he was to read when he got to
the office. He did so, and the letter
ran as follows:
II am obliged to tell you something
that may give you pain, but there Is
no help for it. You shall know every
thing, whatever be the consequences.
For the last week l have felt that 1t
must come to this, but l have waited
until the last extremity, and can re-
main silent no longer. Do not over
whelm me with bitter reproach, for
you will have to put up with your
share of the trouble as well as my
SELF"
Cold perspiration stood in thick
drops on the brow of the husband,
who was prepared for the worst.
Tremblingly he read on:
"Our coal is all gone. Please order
ton to be sent this afternoon. 1
thought you might forget it for the
tenth time, and therefore wrote you
this letter."
But he didn't forget that time!-

fectively and maintaining whole dis
tricts until harvest"
Here, in most succinct portrayal, is
word picture of horrors at which
the imagination revolts, and side by
side a companion illustration that
has a right to make glad the hearts
of Americans. OF all the foreign re-
lief contributed for the Chinese suf-
ferers America has given fully two
thirds, and the cablegram says that
this relief is effective to the mainten-
ance of whole districts" - to the
saving of hundreds of thousands of
lives.
AS the famine advances and while
need grows greater, avenues for ef-
fective relief grow wider and more
numerous. 1t rests with Americans
whether these avenues shall be used
to the full and to the everlasting
glory of our national generosity.

FINANCE AND TRADE REVIEW
DUN's WEEKLY SUMMARY
Lateness of Spring Retards All Lines
of Trade Except Iron and Steel.

Seasonable merchandise goes into
distribution slowly, which causes ac-
emulation of spring and summer dry
goods and millinery in the hands Of
dealers and retards collections, at the
same time making operations of fall
and winter much more conservative.
At some points the last week of May
brought pronounced improvement in
commercial activity, but the holiday
retarded recovery. Progress is slow.
Manufacturing plants are producing
at full capacity in most industries, or
ders covering outputs far into the
future. More New England cotton
mills employees have received ad-
vanced wages, making the change az
feet about $4,000 hands. Another evil
dence of progress In cotton spinning
was the increase in quarterly divi-
dends at Fall River to 2.21 per cent,
against 1872 per cent last year and
PA per cent in 1902, the most pros.
porous of recent years.
Current transactions in the iron and
steel industry are of comparatively lit
tie significance owing to the enorm-
Gus tonnage of business under con-
tract that will maintain activity far
into the future. some sales covering
the output of mills for the entire year
1908. Yet new orders are constantly
appearing, including much foreign
business. Deliveries are made as near
as possible to specificatiQA

The vicar started. He turned pale.
In the pretty woman who stood con-
fronting him he recognized that de-
PRAYED person, Mrs. Robinson.
'I-I-came 30 sea H..s. de 3rScey,"
he stammered.
"And l am Mrs. de Bracey," she
smiled you are surprised eh?-
because you have known me in an
other name. Well, the fact is this:
When l purchased the advowson of
Tootham with the knowledge that the
late rector contemplated resigning at
an early date, the idea struck me that
l would so down and live there awhile,
in an assumed name, so that | might
have a good opportunity of studying
the local clergy, to see whether any
were deserving to be appointed to the
benefice, when it fell vacant"
She paused. The vicar looked rath-
not been quite so hasty in his judg-
ment of Mrs. "Robinson's" character.
Further. he hoped with all his heart,
that she had not heard Of that little
row he had had with his curate in
connection with the latter's visit to
. her house.
The lady went on:
My rather Bohemian way of life
appears to have shocked all the good
people of Tootham immensely; and |
won't deny that when l saw that |

further. Still, hardly think that

supposed to be especially endowed

Aeei have jumped to the conclusion
that | was bad character"
"Ch, | never thought that" began
the vicar, in obsequious depreciation.

lift of her shapely shoulders. Then
| wonder why you dismissed that nice
curate of yours for the iniquity of
merely called to see me-"
On, that was mistake-an unfort-
innate mistake"
"a very unfortunate mistake, Mr..
Priggleswade, as you are now to
learn. Had you behaved differently,
and as minister of the gospel ought,
| should probably have presented you
