[Coypright. 1918, by New York Even
ing Post]
NEW YORK Sept. 5.-Prices ruled
firm with some sharp advances in
today's stock market. The tone was
strong throughout and the market as
a whole moved gradually upward with
very much better support than has
been seen in any previous market OF
the week. One development which I'M
questionably helped sentiment was
the announcement that the syndicate
which underworld the Southern Pa
cific ss,357, 900 stock operation would
hayea to take only s per, cent of stock
instead of 90 per cent as first an
nouneed. This meant offerings had
been highly successful and Union
Pacific shareholders pretty generally
exercised subscriptions. Trading in
the afternoon was more active. Other
strong features of late trading were

CHICAGO'S FIRST WHITE
SETTLER HONORED.
TABLET NOW MARKS KNIFE
HOME SITE.
Bronze Memorial Presented by James
S. Kirk & Co. Unveiled on Spot
Where Once Lived Chicaso's
First Civilian Resident.

Col. Gurdon S. Hubbard, whose father
came to Chicagoin 1878 bearing letter
Of introduction to John Kinzie, spoke
as follows:
eve arc here today to unveila Tablet Com
memorative of the site of the first Dwelling
Home erected in the City of Chicago.
IA very long time ago-over a hundred
yenrs-in 1904, the first of the Pioneers Of
Chicago, John Kinzie, with his family occu-
pied this lot, and his Home here was for many
years the centre of the Social and Political
fife of the northern part Of Illinois and the
then territory now known Ms tho State of
Wisconsin The factor of the U. s. Govt and
the Indian Tribes Of the Northwest, and
trusted by both, Mr.. Kinzie was the most in
flueptial man in the Northwest.
Fort Dearborn built in 1908, and occupied
in 1904, was directly across the river, and at
the time of the Massacre of its Garrison in
1912, John Kinzie and his family owing to the
love and respect felt for him by the Indians,
his life and that of his family were spared
and afterwards were taken across the lake
in open boats by tho Indians. :.
at is fitting therefore that this spot should
he marked both In remembrance of the i'm
mense services Of John Kinzie in the opening
up for settlement Of this region and because
on it stood the first White Mans residence
in this great city Of Chicago.
On Ln1S nlSCOTlCdiSpobW uctc otNo> Vs. eAosi.o
of John Kinzie, the first white settler in Chi
cago the firm of James S. Kirk & Company
started the manufacturing of high grade
soaps for tho Toilet and Laundry, nearly
three quarters of century ago.
The name "Kirk'' has long stood for the
highest quality in scientifically made Toilet
and Laundry Soaps; therefore. it is not sur
prising to know that since Kirk g. Company
placed their Jap Rose Transparent Soap on
the market several years ago, that it's sue
cess should have been almost instantaneous.
In fact, there is no other cartoned trans
equals it in size Of cake or in quality,
It is soap for specific purpose, that OF
cleansing the skin, and it fathers as freely
in the hardest water found in the West as
I'm soft water in the East. We heartily rec
ommend Jap Rose and believe that 1t can
be purchased from most druggists ana
grocers in this city.
