MARKET RALLIES AHD
IS FIRM At CLOSE
DEATH OF j. p. MORGAN AFFECTS
FINANCIAL CIRCLES ONLY
IN SLIGHT DEGREE.

NEW YORK, March 81 Especial to
The Advertiser) -Owing to the support
extended by banking interests the
shock occasioned by the death Of J. 7.
Morgan did not upset the market Sc
riously today. The effect of the pass
ing of the financier was partially coun.
teracted by reports that the interstate
commerce commission had sanctioned
freight advances of trauscontinehtal
roads.
The stcadincss of the market on the
first drop in price impressed the bears
and short covering played consider
able part in the rally, which quickly
followed Toward noon, however, the
market fell back to the earlier low
level.
The opening rate for call money OF
five and one half per cent and Governor
Sulzer $ approval of the "full crew.
railroad bill had a depressing effect.
1t was reported that Berlin began
bidding eight and one-half to nine pei
cent in this market for thirty-day
loans.
Bonds were easy.
The tone of the market became
steader after midday and there was {
slight recovery all round. Business di
minished steadily, speculation being af
fected by an advance in call money tt
seven per cent, the highest figure Of
the year.
While prices ruled in some cases be
low last week S close the general lis
maintained show of stability an(
displayed an inclination to RESPOND
readily to favorable developments
Higher prices for copper metal infused
some strength into the copper shares
The market closed firm.

1.-The time has come when women
are determined to get at the truth of
this matter" safd~Mrs. Hepburn, dis
cussing plans for~the campaign
which her group will wage. Either
it is necessary for thousands of our
sex to be sacrificed each year or not, ="
she continued. eff it is necessary,
then white slaves ought to be. suitably
housed and treated as they deserve
to be treated as servants of society,
instead Of'being treated with shame!
eff the social evil is not necessary,
and if the doctors are right in saying
that a man can live as clean a life
as a woman, and that white slaves
instead of ministering to the health of
men, are source of infection, then
we Want-to know that"
Mrs. Hepburn paused to emphasize
her point. 81 can only give you my
conclusions, so far as 1 have arrived
at conclusions" she said, but as l
see it now, three main causes con-
tribute to the problem of the social
evil First, the desire for the dollars.
Owners of property in the restricted
districts of our cities reap enormous
profits from the rentals of this prop
eTty. They are interested in continu-
ing the white slave in business, and
themselves profiting from the sale of
women.
1.-THE second cause lies in the igno-
rance of the young. Sex knowledge
almost never comes to the young in
a pure manner almost always the |
parents fail to do their duty of in |
forming the children about the ma
ture and functions of sex. When |
knowledge takes the place of igno-
rance, fewer girls will go wrong
and fewer boys will blast their own
lives and the lives of their future

SOME OCCUPATIONS
PREVENT DISEASE
MANY TRADES OFFER FINEST
KIND OF PROTECTION AGAINST
AILMENTS.

Just as workers in certain trades
are more prone to certain diseases
than workers IN other trades, SO
there are some occupations which
directly drive disease away.
Consumption, for instance, is al
most unknown among the workers
in tanneries. Work in a lanyard
is most unpleasant till one gets ac-
customed to the horrible smell, but
the astringent properties of the tan
bark are amazingly good for the
chest and render the lanyard man
practically proof not only against
consumption, but the common cold.

the reason lies in the fact that the

germs.

HOW OIL SAVED
WIDOWS FARM
LAND WAS MORTGAGED AND
WOMAN AND CHILDREN IN
PITIFUL PLIGHT.

Okmulgee Ok, Dec 29-An Eigh'
ty acre farm in Okmulgee county
with five producing wells and others
being drilled was the best Christmas
gift that Mrs. Lotte Hammock a
widow and seven little children found
in her Christmas stocking. f. w.
Kimbley was the Santa Claus who
brought Mrs. Hammock this Christ
mas present which is valued now
at $2O0,O 900 and is constantly increas-
ing in value.
Mrs. Hammock's husband died
some time ago, leaving her an eighty
acre farm heavily mortagaged. The
buildings on the farm are of the
poorest and the land was not good
farming land. The widow struggled
with the mortgage for a time but
three months ago the little farm was
advertised for sale under a mortgage
foreclosure.
Mr.. Kimbley heard OF the Woh-
ans plight and talked with several
other wealthy men. They decided
to drill test well on the land IN
hopes that they might strike oil and
lift the family out of poverty. An in
junction against the foreclosure sale
L.
was secured and the oil men VINO
had interested themselves IN the
case assumed the mortgage indebt'
edness and put up the money to
drill test well. The test resulted
in the discovery of the now famous
Booch sand pool northeast of Morris
and made a fortune, not only Tor the
widow but for many other people
who have oil interest in that dis
trict.
There as now five producing Weil'
on the little farm and others are
being drilled. The mortgage on th'
farm was paid weeks ago and Whei
the deeds were given Mrs. Hammoci

The annual planting OF trees under
state auspices on certain day is said
to have been suggested in 1865 by B.
@. Northrop, secretary Of the Con-
necticut board Of education. In 1872
the custom was adopted in Nebraska
and later spread to other states. On
March II, 1885, the Pennsylvania legis-
lature authorized the governor to des-
Ignate day for the planting Of trees.
He set aside two, one in the spring
and one in the fall. Arbor day was
inaugarated in Ireland In 1904.
