He said: T don't believe in strewins my garbage on Gods front lawn"

TRt ,E BALANCES SHOW PRO.
 NouNceo GAINS IN FAVOR OF SILVER CONSUMING COUNTRIES

NEW YoRK-An apparent orer-ex- tension of the speculative position i- 2Srd of Nay London was also high est on the sshne day with 3. 3-S pence as the official bid price
 The lowest price this year was S2 3-4 cents. Feb. 2S. so that the net increase on the movement ended May g was II 3-4 cents.
 For last year the high" was A Is tOct. 15l and the How" 63 l-2 Mar S. This variation of not more than F cents an ounces over period of nearly r. months with the culmina- tion at new record high" is prob ably more important than spectaeu- lar and monetary advance of twice this amount.
 The trend in foreign origin silver prices. however. is considered to be upward and the reversals of this week is expected to be followed by a higher-price trend as soon as the speculative position is adjusted. Chi nese spectators sold this week and some London dealers who had been caught on the short side. put out more commitments in futures
 Trade conditions in the Far East are rather interesting Favorable trade balance for India for March and April is 94.s0O.00o rupees against an untavorable balance of nearly 220.- oO0.000 rubies for the previous 10 months.
 Imports in these figures include bullion.
 Trade of China with this country for the first 2 months of this year amounted to s39,O0O 900. an increase of 2.0o0.000 in price values although volume was even larger.
 Higher silver prices are, of course. a considerable stimulus to China's export trade so that the outlook at present is rather cheerful.
 Gold bars to the value of s530,000 were shipped from New York to Bombay on May 24 Another ship ment of s290, 900 left New York. May 20th
 The P. & O, steamship Egypt" which was sunk on May 20. carried GS00,000 in gold and f200.0O0 in silver tthe latter containing about l. 300.00 ozs).
 Despite the higher prices on sterl- ing the gold premium in London is again higher
 Silversmith consumption in this country of foreign origin silver has been rather small for the first four months of this year. but May reports show many demands. The under standing in that trade is that sup plies had reached the exhaustion point early in May. Demand by the photographic trade Is steady. For the first months of this year it is understood that imports and exports of silver show less than $1,000, 900 in excess imports which would would be insufficient to meet this combined demand if it continues on this basis for the next 3 months
 No additional purchases of domes- tic silver at go 5-s cents net, and un- der the provisions of the Pittman law have been reported this week. Total so far this year is 23.32s,37s ozs.

The Tailored
Green Coat
By CLARISSA MACkIE

g. 1912. BY Mcclure Newspaper Syndicate.
Eleanor saw the broken chain Of her
shopping bag dangling from the peck
ct OF smartly tailored green tOpcoat.
Buttoned inside the topcout was tall
man. who seemed In hurry.
She did not cry Out-that was not
the Bradley way. She simply left the
crowded car aud followed the man In
the green coat. He walked rapidly.
and the girl was ready to cry with
veKation and alarm as she saw her
money vanishing. Eleanor's quick,
pattering feet stopped short as the
man suddenly paused under a lamp
post and whirled about. His right
hand thrust into his pocket as II in
search Of weapon. and then re-
mained there. His other hand awk-
wardly went up to remove his hat at
sight Of the girl lingering timidly by.
You were following me?" he asked,
shortly.
II was pursuing YOU" she said In
an uncertain tone.
"Wcll?' AS he waited for answer
to this inquiry. Eleanor had the i'm
preston that he was surprised about
something else. His rather cookbook
ing young face wore an amazed look.
Il want my handbag. If you please"
she said. just as Grandmother Bradley
would have done under like circum-
stances.
What have got to do with it?"
You should be ashamed Of your
SELF" she cried In sudden Indignation.
You know. 1t Is In your coat pocket
this very moment"
Then his right hand came out Of his
pocket and with 1t came Eleanors
pretty beaded bag with the cut and
broken chain dangling. His face was
a study In angry establishment. She
saw that his gray eyes flashed like
steel as he faced her.
II don't know who you are. madam"
he said slowly. "but from what you

say you seem to be the owner Of this
bag. Have you formed any idea Of
how it came to be In my pocket"
Eleanor laughed Sarcasticnliy.
Grandmother Bradley would have
done that with just that little dip OF
the pretty dark head. "Thc car was
crowded. she murmured reminiscent
~, land it WAS eaS% for anyone-who
wanted to--a picnpn"ktt. | mean-tO
cut the handle Of The bag and put 1t
into the side pocket Of his big coat.
And when the owner discovered the
loss OF the bag, the car was stopping
and she saw man in a green over
coat alighting, and she saw the handle
OF her bag hanging from his pocket
that Is ALL"
That Is only the beginning" he
laughed shortly. "for l did not know
the bag was in my pocket until ]
h&crd footsteps behind me and turned
to see who 1t was-putting my hand
into my pocket as I did so-and VOLTA
The bag" He put It in her out
stretched hand with little bow. II
hope you will believe me-"
THANK yOu," murmured Eleanor,
longing to flee and very much afraid
to In the presence Of this cool young
criminal. She wondered what Grand
mother Bradley would have done now
that the Bradley spirit had led her
thus far.
He stood aside so that she could
pass on. They were near the corner.
and just around the corner was the
pretty row Of bungalows where her
brother lived. If she could only reach
there In safety.
He saw her hesitation and spoke in
perfunctory tone: II am afraid you
did not believe my story after ALL"
1T was very-a very nice story
Indeed she assured him, in a quakIng
voice, as she hurried away. She did
not go far. Before she reached the
corner there was the sound Of running
feet, and she turned with a cry upon
her lips.
The man in the green overcoat wss
still standing under the lamppost, and
coming swiftly upon him from the rear
was another man, also I'm an overcoat
that looked green under the strong
light. There was something in his out
stretched hand-something that he
pointed ut the tirst man. as he cried
h0arsely:
