at is not within our human knowl-
edge that the hands of our brothers in
the unseen world are reaching out to
grasp, the hands extended to them
around our affairs; but there is some
thing sweetly solemn in the thought
that what we are doing here today, in
loving commemoration of the dead,
finds recognition somehow, somewhere,
in the wise plan of an infinite God.

is rooted deep in the soul of common

of the nations of the earth. Primitive

SPOILERS ARE PUT OUT
The Rock Island Persists in Enforce
ment Of Drink Order.

That the Rock Island is persisting in
its efforts to enforce the rule against
its trainmen frequenting saloons is
evident, for last week 81 more men on
the Illinois division were called on the
carpet and read the law and threat
ened with dire things if the violation
of the rules is repeated. More than 40
men have been discharged, and scores
of others have been called up on the
carpet. A spotter has been quietly at
work, and the exact record of each
mans indulgence in liquor and his Wis
its to saloons has been supplied to
headquarters. Some of the men who
were discharged may be given another
chance.

STOCKS ADVANCE;
TRADING LIGHT
Pennsylvania Bond Issue Absorbs
Attention-Day Closes with
Highest Prices.

NEW YORK, April 2S.-Prices of
stocks underwent a comprehensive up
lift to-day. The movement showed n
certain soberress and restraint which
we're not without impressions viewed
in connection with steadiness and per-
sistence OF the advance. The trading
was not animated and the rise of prices
was not of the buoyant kind seen In
periods of speculative excitement. The
Pennsylvania bond issue was the main
topic of consideration. and the re-
strained character of the price move
n1ent was probably due to some res
ervations in the favorable interpreta-
ton placed on that transaction. The
selection of first mortgage bond TO
effect the Pennsylvania financing is
significant of the necessities which are
recognized in the present investment
conditions. The stock most affected
by the Pennsylvania incident was
Union Pacific. The obvious explana-
ton is that the Union Pacific's banking
affiliations are the same as those
which have enlisted the powerful
foreign aid which has assured the sue
cess of the PENNSYLVANIA bond flota-
tion. As authority has been asked
already of Union Pacific stockholders
60 issue bonds on unniort gagged lines
now owned, the bearing of these facts
on the position of the company is
clear. The reduction in the Norfolk
and Western dividend also was ignor-
cd.
Prices ended at the highest of the
day and with some heavy buying in
Pittsbure.
