1t is impossible to say how many
people have read The Trail Of the
Lonesome Pine" the delightful story
which John Fox Jr., wrote around the
lives OF the primitive mountain folk
OF the Virginia Hills. The publishers
admit that they sold almost a million
copies Of the book and as three times
that number, perhaps four times.

tunate possessors or from the public
libraries, it is not overstepping the
boundary Of truth to say that 3,000.-
900 readers have followed June from
her cabin in the hills to the lonely
pine in which she believes the spirit
OF her sister dwells to watch over
her while she stays in the Gap.
Eugene Walter has brought out all
the strength of Mr.. Fox's delightful
story; he has made June and her kin
folk delightful stage characters, visu-
alizing in his virile manner. the primi-
tive scenes and manners of rugged
people.
The business done has been the
largest Of any dramatic play In re-
cent years and it proved tremen-
dous success in Boston, New York
and Chicago, where 1t enjoyed long
runs. The cast includes Isabelle
Lowe as June. supported by the New
York company, which Is surrounded
with a magnificent equipment Of seen
cry and electrical effects, which rem
der the play more vivid in beauty Of
scene and action. The fact that the
production is to appear at the Grand
opera house, Friday night only, De
cember 4, should interest every local
theatre goer. There will be but one

NEW YORK. Dec. Mum erous in.
fluences conspired today to increase
the cheerfulness Of the financial at
mospher.s. The decided ease of money
rates for demand loans declining to
much the lowest level since July
was perhaps the most impressive of
these developments. 1t is quit, pos
sible that this general downward ten
dency in the loan market is respon-
sible for the very meagre rediscount-
ing Of paper, thus far, with the fed
eral reserve banks; the regional bank
at Cleveland today reduced its rat,
on two months paper.
The announcement from the clear
ing house that all of the loan certifi-
Gates, issued during the war disturb
an.ce to meet balances between New
York banks had now been called in
and cancelled, came earlier than had
been expected. 1t is one of the In
creas;ngly numerous evidences of re-
turn to normal conditions In the
open trading on the stock exchange,
prices for bonds moved today much
as they did yesterday-that is to say
values were generally we'll maintained,
though fluctuations were only fraction
al and there were minor downward
reactions as well as advances. Total
volume Of actual transactions was
close to yesterdays and not abncr-
mally small even when compared
with ordinary times.
