Mrs. Amelia PuIney

On Friday evening. August 3, Mrs. Amelia Purney, widow of the late pr. John Purney, passed away at the home of her son in law, Dr. l.. o. Fuller in Shelburne, Nova Scotia. Mrs. Purney was daughter of the late Samuel Muir, who was for many years one of Shelburnes prominent citizens. She was a woman held in the highest esteem and her demise is deeply regretted.

 Four children survive, Mrs Metzler of Montreal, now in Shelburne, wife of R. H. Metzler, of Johnson and Ward; Mrs. (Dr.) L. o. Fuller Shel- burne; Willard F., barrister in the States and Dr. John of New Britain, Conn.

WALL STREET STOCK
 EXCHANGE REPORTS

Wall street. Opening.-Considera irregularity developed at the opening of today's stock market with the main price trend downward. T. s. Steel, Baldwin and American Locomotives and Studebaker each opened fraction ally lower. Mack Truck and Pan- American each dropped more than a point. CoppersNheld firm.
 Heavy buying of Baldwin, which recovered its early loss and moved a point above Saturdays close, and of Utah Copper and American Can, which also advanced point each, turned the prices upward after the first batch of selling orders had been absorbed. Rubbers were again heavy.
 Noon.-Unfavorable foreign politi- cal news and comment was practically ignored by the stock market during the forenoon. Bidding up of prices apparently was based on the theory that the technical position of the market warranted rally. The buy ing was of rather varied character, but was most effective in the food, merchandising and steel issues. Wool worth leading the advance with a gain of five points. U. s. Rubber first pfd. was pressed to a new low record for the year.
 1:30 D. m.-Speculation was largely at standstill in the early afternoon, fuctuations in the customary lead CTS being confined to the merest frac- tons. but with the movement upward.

DEMAND FOR SILVER M
 MAY CAUSE SHORTAGE
Use of Silver in Motion Picture In. dustry and Amateur Photography
 May Prove Serious.

New York, Aug. 13.-The use of silver in the motion picture industry and amateur photography, and the great demand for silver jewelry are responsible for a growing demand of such huge proportions that Robert Linton, president of the North Butte Mining company, predicts shortage of the metal in the future:
 In statement on the subject MT. Linton declares that 5,O00,000 ounces of silver are used in photography each year. This is the largest single factor in the increased demand in the United States.
 The Orientals take great quantities of silver for adornments, the white metal being favored by them for use in jewelry. China acts as crafty trader in silver, buying up immense . supplies of it on a low market and holding them until the price scars again, MT. Yinton says.
 In the face of this increased de- mand comes the intelligence that the worlds production is declining. The rich silver mines are nearly exhausted, and no new ones have been struck. Silver is now, Mir. Linton declares, chiefly a by-product of copper and lead mining, and the larger copper and lead mines are producing less sil- yer
