They are doing no guessing beyond
that. What they will not say, but
seem to sense, Is that o moderate re-
adjustment reaction is likely after the
turn of the year. But all their trusted
harbingers of 1896 suggest there is no
logical way for business to 60 into
1895 but up For instance, the new
force behind the current upIift Is the
improvement In the heavy goods
(fron, steel, metals, lumber, glass, the
things which 90 into machinery,
building, furniture, automohiles).
This Improvement can be traced
broadly to ue,D general besttrtng Of
demand for that tyre Of goods.
Ttoo opposite lines OF it are notable,
automobiles and residential build
ing. Autos may be reaching near
a neu year peak, but building ceY-
tainIy is not. 1t is still so lor that
its major influence on general busi-
ness upiitt is certainly all ahead
of it.
Increasing Confidence.
If you will trace these two examples
to the full depth of their roots. you
will find that both spring from in
creasing confidence. Purchases Of
homes and autos are sufficiently con-
f1dent of their existing income to
create a stronger buying demand.
Builders of homes and autos, seeing a
prospect of profit, are becoming more
confident in planning their produc-
ton. This tendency has been noted
in autos before, but not until COM
paratively recently in building or in
other corresponding heavy lines ina
chine tools, agricultural implements,

The Blue Devils triumphed in their
debut here when Georgetown's erratic
tossers were downed by a 4-to-1 score
yesterday on the Hilltop diamond.
Georgetown was outhit, 4 safeties to
9. but might have Jared much better
but for careless base running and
sloppy fielding.
Duke took a three-run lead in the
first inning of Ed Hargaden, but a
dropped fly ball by Charles Melone
and an error by Ed Bodine was needed
In the manufacturing Of the tallies.
In the fifth frame the Southerners
added their fourth and final tally of
the fray, but their total was sufficient.
Georgetown made its first real bid
in the ninth, when, with one away,
Jerry Dolan walked and Bodine dou-
bled. Too ambitious, Dolan was
thrown out at the plate on q relay

geous son of Berrilldon- The Busy
body took his fatal header at the
seventeenth fence. They always say
you never can tell what will happen
in the Aintree Grand National or
the Maryland Cup. but of all the
possible surprises, that was the most
tragic. Golden Miller is rated as the
best jumper in England. Therefore
his Grand National mistake this year
hurt both the pride and pocketbooks
Of all who had backed the Paget
chaser.
Troublemaker's fall not only brought
down the finest jumper on this side
OF the water, but destroyed a national
idol OF the hunt racing set.
In q six-year career in the front
ranks Of timber competition, Trouble
maker hit the ground only twice dur
ing important races-twice before the
neck-breaking spill that ended his
brilliant record. Triumphant in prac-
tically every major timber test In this
country at some time during the last
four seasons. going at the stiffest
courses against the stoutest opposi-
ton in the land, Troublemaker made
the two previous mistakes in the New
Jersey Hunt Cup of 1888 and the
Meadowbrook Cup Of 1884.
TINE other chapters of his life are
perhaps best summarized by the
mere statement of fact and the
notes jotted down by the official
chartmakers attending his races:
In 1882. with Noel Laing UP, he won
the Carolina Cup and the Maryland
Hunt Cup, the latter In s:5l:3, set
ting a new and still unbeaten record
In the 42-year-old classic. .
In the Spring Of 1888 Trouble
maker was In England, training for
the Grand National. He never reached
top form under foreign conditions, but
nevertheless jumped the course and
was one of the field that finished
standing up. Noel Laing rode and
trained him there, too. BY Fall
Troublemaker was reacclimated in
this country. Noel being Ill the day
of the 1888 Meadowbrook Cup, Bobby
