BUSINESS BOOM CONTINUES

Business continues on the boom and last week peak thus far for 1886
 From Seattle came report that the canned sal mon industry Aaskas major trade leader in its strongest marketing position in several years to handle the new pack Only approximately million and half cases of unsold stocks on hand now in the warehouses, three quarters of million less than this time last year. Rapid turnover in canned salmon resulted during the first five months this year.
 Dispatches from Washington show that car load ings for the week ending May 16 totaed 68 AT cars or l2,5l2 above the preceding week and 98497 over the corresponding week in 1885 Business Week says car loadings heading steadily for higher levels both industrial and farm products move to market
 Home building is reported to be 55 per cent ahead of the time last year. Big gains are noted in all the heavy industries and the treaties are reported as given impetus to business generally
 It is encouraging report, and indicates clearly that business recovery is due to reach the zenith 1886. The old bugaboo that because it is an election year business is to be bad apparently is going to be tossed out the window Or, perhaps it is just the general accepted conclusion of MT Roosevelts reelection allaying fears of turnover government tai policies.

Horoscope '"The stars incline
 but do not compel'
SUNDAY, MAY 31, 1886.

SUNDAY, MAY 31, 1856. According to astrology this is a favorable day in planetary direc- tion. The sway is read as stimu- lating and inspiring, encouraging to physical and mental exertion.
 Whatever is wholesome in idea and constructive in application is well directed under this configuration. It should be especially inspiring to young persons and schools and col- leges should benefit.
 Under this rule of the stars men and women are likely to face facts courageously and to accept condi- tions philosophically. The clergy should be especially helpful to this Sunday when history teaches many lessons.
 There is a sign that is fortunate for those who make plans. The vis- ion regarding future activities should be clear enough to cause elimination of foolish hopes.
 The stars presage period in which important readjustments will be accomplished While the sum- mer will be marked by much ex- travagance among the wealthy the general trend will be toward sane thrift
 Churches today should benefit through special services that at tract the young Religious interest is to be awakened in many places where apathy has disturbed evan gelists.
 The month of June will bring sensational pages in world history. Tn Europe there will be the tread of marching men, and women will assume heavy responsibilities.
 Booms in the stock markets of London and New York are foretold and there will be a reckless use of money among persons of all class es.
 Persons whose birthday it is have the augury of year of pros perity in which money comes unex- pectedly. Writers will be fortu- nate.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be talented in various ways. Subjects of this sign may lave artistic inclinations and at the same time achieve success in prac- ,ical vacations.
 Walter P Brown, one time Post master General was born on this day 1869. Others who have cele- orated it as birthday include Walt Whitman, poet, 1919; Horatio Sey- nour, statesman, 1910; Frances Aida, operatic soprano, 1883.

employment and the stars bode ill for the future of those who have been compelled to accept relief. Idle men and women are under a sway that does not promise speedy aid in job finding.
 Speculation this month may be widespread. The gambling spirit will affect many persons. Betting on foreign hazards will gain many contributors at this time
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of perplexi- ties and exactions that will test character. It is well to pay unusual attention to business and financial affairs
 Children born on this day prob ably will be exceedingly clever in argument, quick -witted and success full in leadership.
 Hugo Munsterberg, psychologist, was born on this day. Others who have celebrated it is a birthday include Brigham Young, second president of the Mormon Church, 1901; Charles B. Davenport, biolo- gist, 1866; Eben Tourjee, musician, 1884.

MONDAY. JUNE 1. 1886.


 According to astrology this is a veXatious day in which the stars frown upon the earth. It is haz- ardous for dealings with banks, especially if one seeks to borrow. Under this planetary government there may be a strong sense of fi- nancial limitation and fear of the future. The wise will not harbor Encouragement or disappointment. The stars presage quarrels great and small. Nervous tension and slight irritations may lead to ser ouS discussions in families as well as in business associations. Mental poise should be sought persistently This month is subject to a rule of the stars that is likely to create stubborn and determined conflicts among political leaders and bodes i'll for harmony in the major par ties.
 Uranus is in sinister mood that portends trouble due to cratic thinking among the people and poor leadership affecting many or ganizations. Labor unions may be disrupted or at least disturbed.

Boy Saves Four
AS Car Plunges
In Bayou Sunday

GULFPORT, Miss, Sept. Is
(UP)-Four persons whose closed
car plunged into Bayou Bernard
at Handsboro, near here, Sunday
owed their escape largely to the
quickness of Darwin Amos, Is.
Amos was helping a bridge tend
er open the draw span for a boat
when an automobile containing
Mr.. and Mrs. R. E. Lee, son and
Philip Ladnier, 16, rolled off into
the Bayou.
The youth jumped after the car,
broke windows and assisted two
of the quartet to the bank as the
others swan out. None of the
car occupants suffered injuries
worse than shock. But the Amos
boy had cut his fists and arms and
was treated at Gulfport hospi-
tai.
