These boys were all under the direct
instruction of DR.. John c. Young. presi-
dent of Centre College from 1880 until
1857. who was one Of the foremost scholars
OF America in his day and time Although
this school has had a proud record. all
its modest catalogue says is this: Centre
College has educated twenty-five college
presidents. forty-six college professors.
twenty-five representatives Of Congress,
five United States Senators, nine gov
errors of States. two Vice Presidents, one
Justice Of the Supreme Court OF the
United States, thirty-nine judges, State

Another Of that noted class was
"Quinine Jim" Mckenzie, whose death
not long since was the occasion for
mourning in every malarial section Of the
nation. "Quinine Jim earned his name
and fame because as a member of Con-
gress he reduced the duty on quinine
bringing the price down from s. an ounce
to a few cents. For this the ague dis
triCts canOniZed him. Mckenzie was one
of the best story-tellers who ever lived,
and it was an open secret that when
Proctor Knott was governor OF Kentucky
lie made "Quinine Jim" secretary Of
state just to have a good story-teller and
a good listener near at hand.

COMMENT ON MARKET.

Benz. Woodruff. OF Post & Flagg-"The
market was reactionary, though chiefly
traders affair. and not much signid-
.cance can be attached to the transactions.
Some disappointment was professed TO be
felt over the fact that Northern Pacific
did not declare an extra dividend, and
this, with talk Of trade reaction, gave
the bears sufficient ammunition TO mark
prices down. The reaction in c. & O. and
NJ, X. & T. on rumors of trouble in
Amsterdam, was also a disturbing in
1uence. The notable feature in the stu
alton continues 10 be the high prices for
grain and the extraordinary decline in
the visible supply due 10 the actual de
maud both here and abroad. This has
one advantage of bringing the crops
promptly to market, and will, perhaps.
prevent a long te-Up Of funds as is
ordinarily the case in the autumn"
E. W. Crew, Of Henry Clews & Cot
is understood that number of prominent
professional traders Informed their friends
that the present ought to be an opportune
time for causing a little squirt in the
market, while Mr. Roosevelt is bottled I'D
IN the canebrakes. With this idea in view.
yesterday the Hill stocks We're picked out
as leaders, and the extra dividend on
Great Northern preferred helped them
materially, ana the same crowd were
working the market this morniag. The
liberal offerings by London dampened
their ardor somewhat as they apparently
were not anxious to accumulate too much
stock, It has been demonstrated pretty
clearly recently that rallies are easily en-
gineered when the professional element
shift their operations from the short TO
the long side for a turn. Such rallies are
not of a substantial or lasting sort, and
only result in bringing out long stock"
G. Bowie Chipman, of E. R. Chapman
& Co.-'During the last hour and a
half to-day large part Of the total
trading took place in Northern Pacific.
The execution of buying orders carried
the price up to ~ 81 In this strength
the general list shared TO some extent.
and it soon became apparent that on the
advances stock was being met. Shortly
before Z O'Clock the announcement was
made that the Northern Pacific directors
had declared the regular quarterly divi-
dend of / 81 per cent and no more The
stock Immediately broke about four
points, and carried the balance of the
list with it. There was also some foreign
selling on such issues as c. x o., NJ. K.
& T. common, and Rock Island common.
While the action of tO-day's market is to
many disappointing, il hardly seems so
to me. Beyond feverish short covering
find nothing To cause strength, and the
rallies must be looked upon as entirely
temporary In SO professional and mar
row a market operations should be CON
fined TO the scalping position, and pur-
chases should only be made upon weak
ness.

A Lesson For Merchants.

There Is a lesson for every mer-
chant in the experience told by a
representative or a Chicago mail
order house to a gathering OF news
paper men up IN Iowa. He said
that the mail order business de-
pended entirely upon advertising.
He made one remark that mer-
chants should heed. He says they
take the local paper and directed
their special efforts to communities
where the merchants were not up
to-date advertisers. If the mail
order man finds that any line OF
business in any town or city is not
we'll advertised, as for instance
furniture he said they flood that
territory with their literature and
always with satisfactory results.
He believed it true. He said that
country merchants could greatly
cripple the mail order houses if they
would advertise freely and in the
right manner. He said that every
advertisement should describe the
articles to be sold and state the
prices. Here is food for thought by
merchants who fear the effect OF
mail order houses.

The Bondage of the French Church.

The condition. Of bondage thus
imposed on the church Of France
has remained substantially I'm
changed up to the recent outbreak
under the first empire, under the
restored Bourbons, the reign of
Louis Philippe, the brief republic of
1848, the Imperialism of Louis
Napoleon, as well as during the So
called republics that have since fol
lowed. Sometimes-as under the
Bourbons-the bonds were relaxed
for time-conditions were made
less CALLING -but generally the
church in France has constantly
felt the vexatious restraints of an
unfriendly and jealous government
al power.
Education also was under like
restraints and bondage. There has
scarcely been freedom of teaching
in France during the past century.
