marks. We'll confess that the duke belongs to the oldest royal family in Europe; that he is the cousin of the King of Italy, and that it is just pos sible that some day he may be King of that country himself When he goes to London Edward VII takes him by the hand, and he can have his picture taken along with dozen or score of other royal personages, if he sees fit. All the English illustrated papers dwell upon his visits, and those English crowds that still love a lord so we'll cheer him in the streets. All this is very lovely. But the modern world is supposed to prefer the substance to the shadow of power. And in our hum- ble opinion the Hon. Stephen B. Ell kfns, United States Senator and a po- litical figure of some importance in West Virginia, yields more real power in the world than has ever rested in the hands of the Duke of the Abruzzi, or is ever apt to rest there in the fu- ture.
 There would be one advantage from the American standpoint in an engage ment between Miss Elkins and the Duke of the Abruzzi. It ought to raise the level of requirements for foreign noblemen seeking wives and fortunes in America. We have had altogether too many of the Yarmouth, Marlbor- ough, de Castellane type of counterfeit palmed off on us. The Duke of the Abruzzi seems to be gentleman and 6 man of parts, as well as the posses sor of first-class title. If one Ameri- can girl is able to take unto herself a foreign husband like that, surely none of her countrywomen in the future would think that she was gaining a fine strategic position in the struggle for social position by accepting one of the fifth-rate titled degenerates who have made America a financial hunting ground in the past!

Wholesale Lines Give Evidence of Bet torment In Fall Buyng-Iron Buy Ing Is Increasing, But Fur

New York, June 12.-Bradstreet's to- morrow will say.
 weather, crop and trade reports display irregularity. It has been too wet and cold southwest and northwest for best retail and crop developments, but east Of the Mississippi river conditions have been better and more favorable reports come from the latter sections In whole sale lines evidences of improvement n Tall buying are seen but purchasers are generally cautious, while sales for in- mediate shipment are confined to strictly filling in requirements
 Political and crop uncertainties seem likely to influence distant purchases for some time to come, and trade is hardly better than quiet to fair the country over. The best reports come from the cotton goods trade and kindred lines, but there IS noted slight halt in this buying, fol- lowing the price revisions noted some time ago. Wool is frmer on better re- ports as to duplicate orders for worsted mems wearing goods for fall.
 Iron buying is rather better Tn some grades, but the cuts in general steel prices have brought out little new busi- ness, the feeling being that more con- sessions are necessary The leather trades send good reports as to heavy sole leather more is doing in upper grades ana hides are firm, but eastern shoe ship ments are 32 per cent below a year ago for the calendar
 Collections are still backward as a whole.
 Business failures in the United States Tor the week ending June Il number 25s which compares with 225 last week and lol in the like week of 1907. In Canada there were 30 business failures as against 50 last week and 22 in the same week of 1907.

he Cincinnati Times-Star.

From the Cincinnati Times-Star.
 In all this flutter over the reported engagement of Miss Ellxins and the Duke of the Abruzzi it has been interesting to follow the note of excitement and surprise that has char acterized the whole discussion. Eu- rope has wondered If member of one of the oldest royal families had really condescended to ask for the hand of the daughter of so lowly person as a Senator of the United States. And at the same time Uncle Sam trying hard to look unconcerned, has muttered ex- citedly to himself: q knew it! One of my girls was sure to play this foreign title game to the limit first or last"
 Just why the Duke of the Abruzzi will be marrying bepeath his station in life If he and Miss Elkins are finally welded, it Is not altogether easy for us to figure out. He might marry the daughter of some European prince with an ancient title, but with less real power than is possessed by the post master of Mount Healthy, and no one would make anything but pleasant res

mess, consumers deferring operations in the hope that still more attractive prices will be reached. About third of the bar requirements of agricultural imple- rnent makers have been filled at the lower prices named last week. Quieter conditions exist at primary markets of the leading textile industries. indicating that the period of activity was partially speculative, based on the knowledge that prices were below cost.
 In the effort to distribute moderate stocks on hand there is a disposition to substitute better goods as orders cannot be filled according to directions and this maintains a strong statistical position. Spinning has increased relatively more than consumption of goods and the mills are beginning to accumulate in anticipa- ticn of future business.
 Trade in footwear Is better than It any previous time this year, but New England manufacturers still find condi- tions unsatisfactory. There is little dis pute as to prices but demand is limited Much improvement in leather is noted, prices tending upward and sales of sole in the past fortnight are estimated at fully a million sides.

Secretary Taft a Perfect Poser.

From success Magazine.
 Secretary Taft, who owes more to the camera than perhaps any other states man, is as pleased with good pictures of himself as is any other of the great men I have snapped I suppose I have up- ward of 1000 plates of him. He has mas tered the secret of the perfect pose. There is no worry fin it for him, no dread that he will not look fit. He Is always ready, always natural, and always happy, and thanks to these three conditions whatever he may have had of vanity has long since disappeared.

From Success Magazine.
 The secretary of periodical published not far from New York city, and noted for the literary flavor of it's editorial pages, recently received a letter from a subscriber asking for the address of George Meredith. The secretary had a careful examination made of the lena payroll of the company, but the search was in vain. A reply was, therefore. sent ot the subscriber couched In this lan- guage
 We are very sorry that we are unable to give you the address of George Mere dith. But if you will write to Joe Mere- dith of our St. Louis office perhaps you can ascertain it from him."

Burninu a Diamond.

That diamonds will not only burn, but will blaze, was proved as long ago as 1914 by Sir Humphrey Davy and Michael Faraday. The experiment was carried out at Florence, where the two scientists were visiting the great Duke of Tuscany, whose burning glass was the medium through which the sun was induced to operate. This burning glass consisted of couple of convex lenses, distant from each other about 31s feet, the large Tense being some IA inches in diameter, the smaller about 8 inches. The diamond rested on a rod of platinum, which had a cup shaped receptacle at the top, pierced with holes to admit of free circulation of gas. This rod was fixed in the cen ter of glass globe of 22 cubical inches capacity, exhausted of air and filled with pure hydrogen.
 Intense heat was brought to bear upon the diamond when it was exposed to the sun, the second lens greatly re- ducing the focus. In the course of three-quarters of an hour it was nec- essary twice or thrice to cool the globe. Then it was noticed that the diamond was slowly diminishing and be- coming gradually opaque. Suddenly it burst into flame. They removed the stone from the focus and it blazed away merrily It glowed brilliantly, with a scarlet light inclining to purple, and continued to burn for about four minutes.
 The glass was then cooled and the diamond again submitted to the action of the sun. Again it blazed, but not for so long period as at first. Twice more this was repeated and then the diamond was totally consumed. This was the first occasion on which, so far as is known, diamond had been seen to burn.
