HOUGH AGAIN TO
LEAD GALESBURG
Profitins by Hannibal Experience He
Can't be Released if Team is
Over 500.

A Galesburg dispatch says: The
Galesburg baseball association held
postponed meeting Monday night at
which number of matters of i'm
portance to the association were dis
cussed and settled. The price of the
shares We're increased, a proposition
from Manager Hough for next sea-
son submitted and accepted and sew
eral other things arranged.
When the local company was or
ganized, it's capital stock was placed
at $1,000, and it has now been decid-
ed to raise this amount to $4,000.
Value Of the individual shares was
formerly $40, and this has now been
raised to $25. Arrangements have
been made to commence a canvass
for the additional amount of the cap
ital stock in few days, and it is
thought that there will be no trouble
in getting the entire amount in short
time
Manager Bert A. Hough was pres
ent at the meeting and submitted
proposition for next year, which was
accepted. The amount of his salary
was named and he is to have charge
of the tickets while away from home,
which will do away with tae necessity
of carrying an extra man to care for
this part of the business, as was done
all OF last season, with considerable
expense to the association. If Mr..
Hough Is fortunate enough to land
men for the team who are good
enough for faster company. and who
are sold, he is to have 25 per cent
of the selling price. If such man
Is, purchased by the local association
in the first place, this purchase price
is to be deducted before Mr.. Hough
gets his 25 per cent, which will then
be for the difference only. The asso-
citation agreed last night to hold
Hough as manager, and not dispense

hens. Those birds come down from
the north by thousands with the first
cold spell, and every year are seen in
the river here early in the fall Their
flight usually marks the coming of the
teal, the variety of bird which local
hunters took in the largest numbers
yesterday. The hell divers are a
fishy sort of duck, which must be par
boiled before their flesh is fit for
food. The teal, however, sometimes
called the blue BILL is fine duck,
and is much sought for by hunters,
though it is much smaller than other
varieties.
A few mallards have come down
from the north, but this large duck
usually does not appear until later in
the season.

FINANCE AND TRADE REVIEW
WEEKLY TRADE SUMMARY
Spring business Disappointing, condi.
tions Unchanged and Irregular
ity Still Leading Feature.

r. G. Dun & Co.'s weekly Review
of Trade will say:
Faith in the future is more pro-
nounced than satisfaction with imme-
diate conditions, and there is no more
noteworthy feature of the trade out
look than the steadily growing conf.
dence that, with the tariff discussion
out of the way and with the years
principal crops assured, the progress
toward full industrial prosperity
will be rapid. Therefore, the better
prospect of comparatively early
final vote on the tariff and the i'm
proving weather and crop conditions,
coupled with the knowledge that
abundant money and big gold out
put are favorable to expansion, in
spire courage. The fact that lower
prices are stimulating more active
demand for iron and steel products
also aids in this development.
Iron and steel conditions reflect
a broader demand in some divisions,
notably in pig iron. Current busi-
ness is of good volume, but competi-
tion is keen and further price reduc-
tions are reported on certain grades.
"a better market is In evidence on
coarse yarn goods, which have been
quiet for some time, and the bag
trade is inquiring for considerable
quantities of both heavy and print
yarns.
IN the hide market pronounced
strength has developed in all lines
and active buying has been in pro-
gress throughout the week. While
there have been no further sales Of
unusual size in the leather market,
there is steady demand from small
buyers, and the market on the whole
shows an improvement over last
month. Prices are firm. owing to
the rapidity advancing hide market"

THE HONEST NEWSPAPER.

John F. Carter, editor Of the Cim-
maron Courier, Boise City, Okla, has
this to say as to the obligation OF
the newspaper to stand firmly for the
public interests;
All self-supporting, self-respecting,
law-respecting and law-abiding peo-
pie look to the honest, vigilant news
paper as the one agency which never
lays down it's arms, which is always
on guard, always ready for the fray.
They turn to it instinctively when
their rights are assailed. They know
that 1t is always interested, 1t can
not always win, but while such a
newspaper exists there can be no
final surrender to wrong. An honest
newspaper disseminates information
and keeps its readers in touch with
the development of public questions.
1t must do even more. 1t must create
public sentiment, organize move
ments. devise ways and means and
conduct campaign for each good
cause. 1t must be willing to stand
alone when once convinced that its
course is right. 1t must have convic-
tions on all public questions, and
maintain them in the face of misrep-
resentation. 1t must prize character
and consistency above popularity.

any pretty thin material is appropri-

contrast may be used as preferred.
The waist is made over fitted lin

back portions and the bretelles. The
wide girdle finishes the lower edge,
while the skirt is designed to be ad-
5usted over the lining and under the
edge of the girdle. The long sleeves
are shirred and arranged over fitted
Innings, and these Innings should be
of transparent material to give the
best results. The short sleeves are
simple plain ones trimmed in har-
mony with the waist. When the high
neck is desired the lining is faced to
form the yoke.
