WITH GOOD CROPS
OUTLOOK IS BRIGHT

change has suffered quite a sharp set
back. Prominent railroad and indus
trial stocks have tumbled 3 to nearly
10 points from the high levels re-
Gently reached, although latteriy
there have been Irregular rallies. The
break in stocks had q chilling effect
upon speculative sentiment.
Then the lamentable political tur-
MOL could ont be entirely ignored.
The financial community had made
up its mind that President Taft would
be nominated and that no legislation
of a more harrassing nature than
that already experienced would be
attempted. But Mr.. RooseVelts re-
markable demonstration of strength
in first one state and then another
forced reconsideration of the political
protents. At this moment uncertainty
rules--and uncertainty is never con-
ducive TO financial or industrial sta
bility.
One favorable feature is the world
wide easy money conditions. Provid-
cd the crops do reasonably WELL other
conditions, taken AS a whole, should
by and by make for fuller measure

Visitors to the Old North church are
shown through the historic old build
ing usually by 40 elderly man who
seems obsessed with q love for the
church. His fund of "reminiscences is
refreshing. and the most interesting
thing he recounts is the story Of how
the lanterns were placed in the belfry.
According to his version Of the historic
incident. the sexton overheard some
English officers talking in the house he
lived in and Immediately hung the Ian
terms. Returning to his room, be saw
that his shoes We're caked with mud
and hid them. replacing them with a
dry pair. The officers. after they learn
ed that a signal had been hung from
the belfry. rushed 10 the room OF the
sexton. but. finding his shoes dry. be-
came convinced that some one else had
hung the lanterns and then locked all
the doors of the edifice. Boston Jour,
