New York. Dee. More money
has been put in circulation at the
opening whirI Of the opera ana horse
| show in this city than has financed
many a business during the past year.
For the first time since the pinch of
the panic last fail. chunks of ready
cash and fortunes in dress and enter
tainment have been turned loose here
about the society debut of the horse
and the prima dona. With much of
is old-time p%rUfligacy the fashionable
world is today %patronizing the places
where high priced stage and ring Tal-
cnt preen and prance before the
boxes, and in its wake the lesser
spcnders have followed through this
welcome revival of Broadway buying.
In the Golfers of the stage managers
of the annual horse fete as Wcll as
the opening opera there are being
counted today hcaping evidences OF
GCtham's renewed ability to pay for
lis popular Ilcasures. Sure signs o.
plentiful activity downtown, the re-
turns from these two costly pasttimes
have been always held here and since
the bCuntiful bulging of the finan-
ciel barometer this week no doubt is
left of returning floods of prosperity.
Lasting Lesson.
The last gasp of frenzied finance
has today been throttled in this town

chapter of a fierce fight to a finish

out the Wall street district as has
marked the fate of the former king of
capitalization. Every magnate, Off
Ger. clerk and office boy of the down
town corporations is today talking of
nothing but the end Of the fortune o.
little Mr.. Morse. However, hard the
imposition of prison sentence may
prove to this conspicuous offender
against fair finance the lesson learn
ed by the commanders as well as the
ana file of the Wall street bril-
gadc this week viii not soon be for
cotton. In the march forward to
better business, which is already I'M
derway, every money mover is today
treading the straight chalk walk.
Popular Parish.
To offer ready Christian services to
the dead as well as the living. an or
nate little mortuary chapel is today
standing ready for dedication as an
adjunct to the Little Church Around
the Corner" the fame of which is
spread throughout the civilized
world. For sixty years the good peo-
pie of this popular parish have kept
the doors of their edifiCc open from
i'm the morning till six at night to
the constant call for marriage and
burial rites for the quick and the dead
of every locality and station on earth

removal to all parts of this country
ana the world. hat the new wing of
the famous old pile has been built

bic hearts have been comfortcd

parish. which all Gotham is
now delighting to honor.

Workers are becoming readily

sight of the straining thorough
c~ircling about these emerald
walls will be one sadly missed i'm this
metropolis. The abandoned s%tretches
