cd churches will do honor TO John Calvin

but it was in Geneva that he spent most
Of his public life. and it was in Geneva
that he died. on May =, 1854.

BUSINESS OUTLOOK
pun,s report saws today:

Dun's report says today:
No one can now question the sub
stantial character of the revival in the
iron and steel trade which is rapidly
rising TO high water mark levels. The
output of the principal producer has
already reached within a moderate per-
centage Of fun capacity. and railroads
as well as builders in leading branches
Of construction work are in the mar
ket. with their orders. This wonderful
change in a short period in the activity
OF the greatest manufacturing indus
try Of the country; the bright outlook
for the crops. that Of corn q giving
promise of an unprecedented yield; the
cheapness OF money and the fact that
the tariff bill has been passed by the
Senate, these are the conspicuous feat
ures Of the business situation. Natu-
rally they serve 20 strengthen the new
born confidence apd TO encourage new
enterprises. The maintenance of trade
revival is all the more remarkable be-
cause this is the usual season Of crop
uncertainty and midsummer mercan-
tile dullness. Statistics of bank clear
ings and railroad earnings continue
favorable. The former gained 50 per
cent.

That the autoists made friends, particu-

made to some other Delaware destination
that farmers in other sections Of the State
