America.

who are bound for Colon and may pos
days behind the schedule set by the
navy depar tment.
The failure of the Prairie to float OFF
the mud flats of Pea Patch island in
the Delaware river, prompted the navy
department to order the Dixie 70 take
the Prairies place.
The Dixie arrived alongside the
grounded transport yesterday afternoon
and with the assistance of the marines
half dozen tugs, the transfer of the
Pra1rle's cargo of equipment was
quickly effected. The Dixie had the
tide with her and passed out to sea
at 100 a. m.
Another unsuccessful effort was made
to float the Prairie at flood tide early
today 1t is probable she will have to
be dredged out.

er Rosalind, which sailed from here for

less, only one message has been re-

of men and of angels, and have not
charity, I am become as sounding
brass. or a tinkling cymbal. And
though I have the gift of prophecy, and
understand all mysteries, and all
knowledge; and though have all faith.
so that 1 could remove mountains. and
have not charity, I am nothing. And
though 1 bestow all my goods to feed
the poor, and though I give my body
to be burned. and have no charity, it
profiteth me nothing The charity we
need is like unto the kindness of heart,
the charity that suffereth long and is
kind, is not easily provoked, thinketh
on evil; rejoiceth not in iniqU.ty, but
rejoiceth in the truth If person
think no evil he will speak no evil The
rule of conduct prescribed by our r1t-
ual which bids us to write tbs faults
of our brother on the sand and his vir-
tues on the tablets of love and memory
is founded upon this kind of charity"

New York, Dec. 6.-That industrial
prosperity rules throughout the
United States and that the business
men of the country expect it to con-
tinue, is shown in records from 5000
representative firms compiled by the
National Association of Manufacturers
and made public here today. John
Kirby, jr, president of the associa-
ton, summing up the result of the re-
ports received says:
at is quite within the bounds of
conservation to say that today, prac-
tically two years after our so-called
panic, the country has reached con-
dition of normal prosperity. BY nor
NAL prosperity is meant to be under
stood a satisfactory state of manu-
featuring, selling and collections.
This statement is not based upon
unsupported optimism, but upon such
unfailing trade barometers as the
agricultural output, bank clearings,
manufacturing, movement of freight
and other well known indications"
A majority of the manufacturers, in
making suggestions as to the best
means to maintain a condition of
normal prosperity throughout the
country, urge that it is necessary to
keep down the prices of raw ma
terials, and avoid further tariff agita-
ton for the present" 1t is further
necessary, they assert, that all in
terested in the general welfare of the
country. preach conservatism and
fight wild speculation in real estate
and business enterprises in general as
we'll as in Wall street.
