Interesting Lecture

The Junior and Senior high
School students attended a lecture
given Wednesday, March %, by a
specialist from Chicago. The theme
of his lecture was "On the Care of
the Teeth" It was very interesting
and educational. Special slides
were given as to the growth and
care of the teeth from childhood to
the age of maturity. If the sound
advice that the speaker gave was
only carried out by the pupils, Sank
Centre would have citizens with
excellent teeth.

Capt. Herndon, In conversation with the engi-

was 20 distant and feared that unless she could
be brought nearer all the passengers could not
possibly be got on board. Mr.. Ashby then re-
marked that II he could be of any service in

On Friday morning in the height Of the
blow, the engineer discovered that the ship.
which was rolling heavily In the trough Of the
sea, had sprung O leak. He reported it imme
diately to Capt Herndon.
by Saturday the ship laid over SO much that
Capt. Herndon, with the engineer, had to crawl
along the decks to reach the after pumps for
inspection. Everything that experience could
suggest or the extremity of their condition
devise was discussed by Capt. Herndon, the
mates and engineer. The fires were extin-
guished by the increasing leak and early on
Saturday it was clear to the experience Of all
that there was no hope for the ship.
During the morning the brig Marine hove

to the ship, passing under her stern. Capt.
Herndon spoke her. requesting her to lay BY and
take passengers. which she consented to do.
The engineer was at this time with Capt. Hern-

prices moved over an irregular course
in a small market today. United

A few high-grade corporate issues

Secondary rails were inclined to work

Some of the communications loans
receded from their recent high levels.
Postal Telegraph SIS gave up a point,
while International Telephone issues
slid of fractionally.
The foreign list followed a mixed
trend, with the principal gains sup
piled by French, British Belgian, cat

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, December 16.-The best
pre- Christmas trade in three years has
raised hopes in the furniture business
that its semi-annual market In Janu-
ary will bring busy Spring for manu-
facturers
With retail stocks depleted by holiday
trade, leaders in the industry believe
purchases should be heavy by 5000
retailers expected at the market here
January to 13.
Upon orders OF these buyers-from
900 manufacturers Of furniture and al
lied lines displaying their wares at the
American furniture mart-largely will
depend the pace of furniture factories
during early months of 1884
Their output had slowed down to 80
per cent of estimated normal weekly
production capacity for the week end
ing December 2, following a November
slump in retail sales.
What price level will prevail at the
January market has been a matter OF
conjecture, but most estimates place it
from 10 to IS per cent higher than last
Summers.

District Hard Hit.

Clearing weather and sunny skies
were promised Washington for the
fourth Of July by the Weather Bureau
today after high winds and two heavy
downpours Of rain had scattered dam
age through q large section, including
Maryland and Virginia, yesterday and
had given President Roosevelt q rough
trip up the Chesapeake on his return
to Washington.
The damage in Washington was
slight. Hardest hit in the storm area
was Hagerstown and the Middleton VAL
ley section In Frederick County, Md.
There damage may run as high as sew
eral hundred thousand dollars, it was
estimated.
The weather will continue cool to-
night and tomorrow will be fair with
rising temperatures. The wind, which,
whipping in from the northeast in the
Chesapeake Bay area, brought with it
forebodings Of more trouble, will die
down, the Weather Bureau said, having
already reached its highest peak. This
Is something Of a weather freak, it
was said. but a rising barometer
throughout all Northern States will
make its influence felt in this area
by afternoon, and the weather will quiet
down and remain quiet through the
holidays.
