BY ANNA eENTLY.

Say. mother and MolIie tugged
gently at fold of her mothers dress
to attract her attention did you see
that beautiful memorial window that
the Staceys have had put into the
church for their little girl who died
last year,
They were in the church porch as
the child spoke. but her mother made
no reply until they had walked some
distance down the street. and then her
words were few and hesitatingly spo-
ken.
Eyes, 1 saw it,
And" persisted MoIiie. who was
evidently good deal exercised upon
the subject. 1.-THE superintendent spoke
of it in Sunday school and said that
the window was placed there by the
parents Of our lost fellow pupil TO be
a constant reminder of her lovely life
among US. She wasn't good bit.
Still Mrs. Mason made no comment.
Mollie made a wry face. which her
mother was TOO wise to see. and as the
two walked slowly homeward Mrs.
Mason tried to divert the little girls
mind from the subject of her dead
mates imperfections by describing for
her benefit another memorial that
she had seen in a visit to the City
hospital a few days before. This
was q free bed" contributed by the
bereaved parents of another little lost
one, and Mollie listened with glisten-
ing eyes to the story Of the little street
boy who had been run over by a heavy
dray and had both legs broken
'And there he lay" she said. her
own kind eyes full of tender tears.
his little white. pinched face bright
with a contented smile and his feeble
hands toying with few rose gerani-
um leaves that some kind visitor, had
dropped on the coyerlid for him, so
cheerful and happy that 1 wondered
at him. l asked him If be was COM

pale face light up and heard him pipe
in his thin, shrill voice:
Comfortable is ii. ma'am? Why,
it's list bfvin itsilf afther the dirt an
the coold an the hoonger an the
batin's. Faith. an it's well paid / am
for the loss o. me two spindle ligs-'
"And he laughed aloud, such. mer'
nv little cackIe that really forgot for
the moment that he was a helpless
bedridden cripple for life and only
thought of him as a petted child, lying
| in state in a soft, white, clean bed
tended and cared for as tenderly as u
he had been the heir to dukedom."
What a beautiful memorial" cried
Noliie, with childish delight.
Her mother nodded approvingly
Yes. it was a beautiful thought. and
the fund that supports that bed is
called by the dead child's pane, the
Ida Lewis fund, so that every SICK
and suffering one who is comforted
and nursed back to health in that bed
will bless the namepf the giver. whom
they can never thank on earth"
MolIie was silent for little time
and then she said softly. while a great
tear rolled down her cheek and drop

The Markets.
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features Of the Days Dealings In All
The Leading Stocks.

New York, May 1.-THE dull condition
of the stock market today was difficult
to account for from any incident in the
news The apparent completion or selling
from quarters that were regarded as I'M
portant gave some relief to an apprehen-
sion that informed interests were liqui-
dating their holdings of stocks. Buying
orders from London also predomnated.
The market was freed from the selling
pressure in evidence yesterday and senti-
ment was improved for that reason, but
there was little disposition to enter on ac-
tive measures to accumulate stocks or TO
advance prices Prices moved dec1sively
upwards only in the final half hour Deal
iEgs fell to lower rate ofactivity dur
ing the midday period than has been wit
messed in New York for over two months.
Enectual support was afforded by the
sympathetic influence of strength in few
stocks, notably Reading That stock met
some very heavy selling orders in the
course of its advance, but offered good
resistance. The Fries were strong and
estimates of the increase in that road S
earning power were put in circulation.
The stirring of the market for the Fries
was believed to foreshadOw the offering
| of additional securities incident to fl
nancing the roads further needs. The
question of successful financing to meet
approaching requirements had it's refiec-
| ton in the heavy tone of the Chicago 4
! Great Western issues and Toledo Rail-
| ways. Part of the effect of repression on
activity was due to the renewed rise In
price of wheat and to some of the reports
received of unfavorable weather condi-
| tons in parts of the wheat belt Read
| ing's rise to 1861 placed it nearly two
points above the price touched in the ad-
vance after the supreme court decision
on the commodities clause and the highest
since January of 1906. The buoyant mp-
| shoot in Reading at the last awakened
the general market to only moderate
degree of animation, but the closing tone
| was strong.
Bonds were steady. Total sales. par
| value. 81, 6S2. 600. United States bonds Were
unchanged on call.

hlGHBAlL WILL NOT
''''"'"~- Will RACE Rae; TINS SEASON

THE champion trotting gelding,
L Highball (2.03A), is reeling off frac
tions Of miles at 2.10 clip, pacing, for
Ed Geers at Memphis. but it is said
to be very doubtful if the great son of
DR. Hooker turns for the word in any
pacing event this year.
1t will be the work of the silent
reinsman to give Highball a thorough
preparation at the pacing gait this year
and then start him in the green pacing
events in 1910, where the great gelding
would be a very formidable opponent.
To start Highball against the sea
soned PAGERS at this years races would
be nothing less than sheer folly, and
no one is wiser to this fact than the
aStute Pa Geers.
