The Shoe Situation.

A much better feeling now prevails in the
footwear industry, the practi cal certainty Of an
advance " prices causing wholesalers to order
more literally for both present and future re.
quirements. while travelling statesmen report
that retailers are much less conservative in the
placing of spring business. Foreign INQUIRIES
are also stimulating influence. and the i'm
roved situation is reflect ed in active operations
at many factories that were Formerly closed
down or only partly employed. The extremely
high prices asked for all kinds of leather re-
strict trading to some extent, and business,
though steady, is rather quiet. This, however,
is partly attributed to the large purchases
made early in August. which have not yet been
used up. and as demand for the finished goods
has materially increased of late an early re-
sumption of buying on large scale is expect
ed. Available supplies are light and tanners
generally are disposed to advance values, calf
being especially strong because OF the ab-
sence of imports from Europe.-Dun's Review,
Sept. 26th.

the grounds that the islands were within

tween two individuals. A short time previous
to 1900 they were sold by William to Jonathan

Fall Trade Below Normal.

Bradstreets of Sept. 26th, says: "Trade
trends display mixed aspects, with unsatisfac-
tory factors rather outnumbering those Of q
favorable character. 1t is evident that fall trade
is below normal; that industrial operations are
quiet. idleness being marked; that bank clear
ings, with stock markets closed, continue on
the dowL grade; that failures are numerous
and that the general rule is to buy for nearby
pressing needs rather than to cover future re-

the fall on the way to Brooks and that menin-
gifts developed from the injury, and that the
horse should have been treated for the trouble
rather than killed. R, F. Dunton for the de-

Two New York lawyers, both prominent, have been engaged by MT. Gianini for the boys defense. Although he is ac- tive in preparation to save his son from a murderer's death, MT. Gianini is almost prostrated by grief. When the Rev. William A. Beecher, the kindly appearing, white haired old father of the slain school-teacher. met him the two shook hands.

MIss sHELroNs TALKS.

The vesper audiences at the Broad street Roung Women's Christian As sociation have been particularly happy for the last three weeks in listening to the talks given by Miss Louise Shell ton of Stratford. The value of the talk deepens from week to week as Miss shelton and her listeners come to know each other. The last of her seriess is to be given on Palm Sunday, 5th of April. The subject which she will discuss will be appropriate for Easter thinking, and previous experi- ence gives a conviction that this final talk will be full of Easter beauty and helpful suggestiveness- After the 4 o'clock service, members of the Etnois club will serve as hostesses.
