In lbCD some ten families joined in a camp meeting on the shores of what is now "Wesley Lake, but then was Lons Pond, New Jersey. The Rev. Dr. Ell wood 11. Stokes was chosen president of the Ocean Grove Camp Meeting As sociation. then and held that office for thirty-two years, until 1SG7, when he died and went home to glory. Under his direction it grew from lt3 small beginning until it is now the biggest camp meeting in the world. Do not lock now for red farm wagons and horses switching their tails and stamping to shake oft the flies, gnawing the bark oil the trees and interpreting the preacher with their loud whmneys. The old preaching platform with the straw around it Las been gone this good while. (There never was such a hirbor for fleas in the ruund world as straw is.) Th old backless seats where the congregation sat, only slightly sheltered from sun and shower by strips ot canvas, vines and pine branches', are all gone-. There was quite a struggle against erecting a permanent roof, but the old fogies were outvoted, and now there is an immense auditorium wher y.i'OO may take their easo in Zion in comfortable folding chairs. The roof that springs overhead in one parabolic arch is lighted by 1.20O incandescent lamps. The "nvourners" bench" or ultar, if you like that better is 114 feet long and cushioned. There are tent? still to live in, but they are not many. Thy are on raised bua.nl floors, carpeted as at home. Center tables, each adorned with a chenille cover and bearing an easel photograph of that Madonna with the rolled-up eyes, stood in the parlor of every three roomed tent I sav. Square holes are cut in the side walls, barred with strlfs of .c'uck and glazed with netting so as to look like real windows. Each has a frame kitchen at the back an.l a. front stoop with a porchlike awning and rocking chairs. Each had a honeysuckle bush beside it. There are more honeysuckles at Ocean drove than anywhere else on earth. The air 13 sticky with their perfume. By far the greater part of thf summer popula tion of Ocean drove live in hotels and jig-saw cottaees. bearing romantic titles and situated in streets with such names as 1'ilgrim's I'athway, Mount Tabor Way and Heck Avenue. The people are all plain, unaftVct'.-d folk that do not try to put on style, no matter how rich they are. They all look like "fried potatoes for breakfast and dinner in the middle of the day" people. One cotta.ee hid its lawn decorated in a way that I thought characteristic, though it was the only one 'ot the kind I saw. Two large shells, I should say about eighteen inches across, stood perpendicularly in the middle of each grass plot, and the edges of the private walk and the sidewalk were trimly defined by a. row of conch shells laid end to end as straight as a gouge. I call that pretty tasty. The architecture of the Auditorium, the Young People's Templf the Tabernacle and Thornley Chapel is that cf a freight car. They are painted yellow ochre with red-brown trimmings. Near the Auditorium is a pavilion that shelters a model of modern Jerusalem and its environs. The last I saw of it some little girls were pegging stones at the mosque of Omar. At least, they said they were. MARSHAL! FIKLll. Has Twenty-Five Million Dollar Invented in Unglaml Alone. Richard Linthlcum, In Ainslee's Magazine. nother Chicago multi-millionaire has built hfmelf an ante-mortem r.onument in the Field Columbian Museum of Chicago, which has for a r.ucleus many of the choice exhibits of the world s fair, and Is constantly recsiving additions through purchase and exploration. Marshall FklJ is e prince of merchant rrin.-es lnquestionahly he is the richest man in Chicago. His enormous wealth cannot b correctly estimated because it has been invested in such a variety of enterprises. It is believed that at leat twentv-flve millions of dollars have been invented bv him in English manufacturing establishments alone. He is the man to whom we pay 53 for a lower berth when we ride in a Pullman car. and in many of the great industrial and manufacturing enterprises of Chicago he is the guiding and controlling spirit. If the fitory of his life could be written in detail, dealing successful lv, step by step, with his wonderful ri-t in the mercantile world, it would constitute one of the most interesting of all American biographies. He is the marvel of marvelous American business life, and his story would be a lesson to the business community cf the world But Mr. Field is not a communicative man lie is easy of access if one has business with him. but unless he has changed his mind recently his biography as a merchant prince will never be written. He is one of the few great multi-millionaires who has done nothing to arouse an antagonistic filing against himself in the community in which he lives. On the contrary, he inspires admiration although his name is associated with rreat putllc philanthropise except the museum to wnich be gave a Million dollars. Whil th'j is a princely sum. it sinks by comparison ' ,'fh tne sevn or more millions that John D. Rockefeller has given to the University of ChiJa and Andrew Carnegie's gifts of libraries to vw' York and his native town in .Scotland. An iVnianation of the difference in amounts might SaPfound in the accepts belief that Mr. Field i at Peace with his conscience, haytn aecumuati hi enormous wealth by legitimate busilated "j through legitimate busings ,,Mrtnnltli out of th recollection of which come no widow's all. no orphan', cry.

THE LIVESTOCK MARKETS

. I'M Sl'ALbV SATISFACTORY yvi;i:k for cattlk salcmifx. Avernue ;ain of Forty C'eat in Hog SHtnrday, Showing Hiuhent I'igTnren in Seven Year. UNION STOCKYARDS, INDIANAPOLIS, Aus. 31. Cattle Receipts, 223: shipments pmall. The receipts of cattle this week were smaller, showing a decrease of about S"0 compared with lat week, but there is an increase of over 1,000 compared with the same week a year ago and 2 compared with the corresponding week two years ago. The receipts thus far this year show a gain of nearly 41,000 compared with the same period last year. In more ways than one the market this week has been different from last week, and, in fact, several weeks preceding. The marketing has been of smaller volume. The quality in certain lines was Improved, and there was probably an increase in the demand from all sources for all kinds. The conditions were more favor able to the seller than they have been for several weeks. The supply of fat cattle at no time was equal to the demand, and strong competition caused some unevenness in values, but there was a steady upward movement, and at the close of the week the better class of steers were generally considered 2o'Q40c higher than the close of last week, and occasional sales were no doubt 50c above the market for equal kinds at that time. Female stock did not show quite as much improvement as steers, but the better grades sold probably 13Q23c higher than at the beginning of this week. It took several days for salesmen to pull the common to medium cattle out of the deep rut that they have been in for several weeks, but they finally succeeded in placing prices on a higher level, the advance being variously estimated at 10-S23C. The clearance was better than it has been for a long time, and with a very healthy condition existing the market for the week closed with the pens practically deserted. There was an absence of strictly top export steers, but sales were reported as high as $5.85, and grass-fed Texans sold as high as $.1.95. Export heifers sold as high as $5.10, steers and heifers mixed as high as $5.25, and there were no cows reported above $4.40. More than an ordinary supply of cattle was recvived to-day, and with a steady demand a good clearance was made at quotably steady prices compared with yesterday.

Combined receipts of hogs this week exhibit a decrease of fully 6.50U compared with last week, little change compared with the same week a year ago and a decrease of 7,000 compared with the coresponding week two vears ago. inus iar tnis year there is a gain of nearly 83,000 compared with the same period last year. To salesmen and owners this has been an uncommonly satisfactory week in the hog market. There has been a gradual upward movement in values and with one exception the position at the clo?e of the week is the highest in nearly eight years. Once in 1S94 hogs sold as high as they did this week and the next highest time precding that was' Oct. 17, 1VJ3, when heavy hogs sold up to $6.85. The conditions could not have been more favorable for the advance. There was quite a falling off in the receipts and the scarcity of choice hogs in the Rast caused many orders to be turned this way, and the result was the most active shipping demand that there probably has been heretofore this season. Packers have followed the upward movement in prices reluctantly, but toward the close of the week they were becoming more reconciled to the situation and were strong competitors. Quite a number of good hogs were marketed and the quality generally seemed to be satisfactory, but hardly up to the high standard set last week. The record shows that on Monday the market was quotably 5c higher, on Tuesday they were 15c above the close of last week; on Wednesday there was a further gain of 5c, and on Thursday there was another advance of 5c. On Friday most of the hogs sold 10c higher, followed by a further advance of DülOc at the extreme close of the week when the average was about 40c higher than the close of last week. It is due to shippers to say that they were the main support of the market, but no doubt packers would have been more liberal buyers with large supplies. The receipts to-day were little different from a week ago and about 1,000 smaller than a year ago. The market opened with a continued strong demand from order men and with packers showing probably a better disposition than at any time heretofore this week, competition was unusually strong and the result was a gain of 517100 In values over yesterday. The early supply was soon exhausted at opening prices and a few loads that arrived very late were taken promptly by packers at firm prices compared with the way equal kinds sold in the morning. Sales ranged from $J.25l36.75. and a small proportion of the supply sold below $0.45.

The receipts of shsep and lambs for the week ending to-day snow little cnange compared with last week and an increase of nearlv I.600 over the same week a year ago. and 1.200 over the corresponding week two years ago. Thus far this year the receipts are over 30.0 "0 larger than the same period last vear. There was very little change in conditions or prices the first half of the week, but with continued light supplies and an Increased demand the trading was active toward the close of the week and there was a gain or about -a cents in val ties. Iocal butchers were not very much in evidence In tne market, but there was more competition on snipping account and there i3 no doubt that larger supplies could have been sold at firm prices. The receipts were characterized by the scarcity of choice stock, and lew extreme prices were reported on that account, but lambs sold as high as $4.9) and old sheep as high as $3.50. The receipts to-day were as large as expected at tnis time in tne week, and all sold early at steady prices compared with yesterday.

He is supremo in his workshop, the kitchens, which are large, "brilliantly lighted and scrupulously clean ro.ms, with hardly a suggestion in the air of broiling and baking and masting and frying that b going on all around. The chef, with subchefs over the butcher shops, th soups, the entrees, the roasts, the vegetables, the bake shops and the pastries, and a hundred cooks an calling out orders in Frencl . for they are nearly all French or Swiss, and French is the language of the kitchen as well as of the court wherever a gocl cuisine is attempted, and bustlir.g around in their white caps and aprons, so intent on their work that the intrusion of a stranger is not noticed. The waiters, in their black coats, with their order cards and their trays, thread their way in and out among the cooks, each hurrying to till his order in the chortest possible time. It is a finely specialized kitchen, however, and ail the skurrying back and forth and shrill calls in French for portions of many dishes seem confusing only for a moment. Then follows an appreciation of the wonderful system of the place that insures the highest art in cooking, of the men who do nothing but roast all day with a knowledge of the exact number of minutes and even seconds required to produce the best results, of others who Juggle copper skillets, and of others who fry and bake and carve and garnish, and of the gardemanger where the jortions of meat and raw foods are-prepared and dressed In readiness for the range. Each cook attends only to the preparation of his own dishes, and as for the chef, he seldom cooks at all. He has an otilce of his own. where he keeps hla memoranda, his books and his special menus, and the secrets of his business. During the rush hours his place is in the center of the kitchen, directing, watching, and. when necessary, admonishing. If several big banquets are In progress, making it necessary to send hundreds of iortions of each dish to them at once. It Is the chefs duty to see that these courses ae sent up promptly, and to check off each one on th bull tin board at the time .it is sent. When he goes off duty one of his assistants takes his place. Resides the cooks there are a dozen men and women who do nothing but peel potatoes, others who make toast, and still others who attend to the big dish-wa-ihlng machines. The butcher and his assistants have charge of the supplies of meats, some of which for instance, beef are kept in the big refrigerators, where the temperature never varies a de. gre for three months before serving. In strong contrast with the dishes they have been preparing is the comparatively simple dinner of the cooks themselves. As they sit at the long table In their white aprons and caps, before each one is placed a bottle of claret. They are the only emplove to whom the hotel serves wine. This is a fight Jealously gurrrfed by the cooks, and. they allege, made necessary by their work over hot ranges. Whnt a "Jag" I. rhila!e!prda Record. K "I hud a jag on last night," a young man said with a diffldent smile, and he sighed and rubbed his eyes wearily, and ordered a long, cool, fizzy drink, with ice clinking in it. His companion answered severely: "You are unjust to yourself. You did not have a Jag on; you were drunk." "Same thing, isn't it?" asked the other. "No, it is not the same thing. To have a jag on is to be feeling gay and happy from a little liquor, but not to show any signs of intoxication, not to have a vacant look la the eyes, nor an unsteady gait, nor a thick tongue. Last night you had all those things, and. the-e-fore. you did not have a Jag on. but vou were drunk. This word 'jag " the speaker resumed, "means a little, not a full load. When a farmer speaks of a jag of hay he means a third of a load, not a whole load, or ton. We get the slang word "Jag from the farmer, and we should only use it to describe a very slight alcoholic exhilaration." Should Call a Doctor. Baltimore American. Prof. Charles Eliot Norton says that he contemplates our colonial policy with "a hot heart." There are numerous remedies for heartburn.

BEST TRADE: OF YEARS

AI C.I ST WAS A Gill-: AT MONTH FOR 'Uli: LOCAL 3IAUIvi:T. v AU Linen Will (; Into September with u Heavy Ueiuunil And at Satisfactory Price. Most of the wholesale merchants and commission men say that the business of the last week In August left no room for complaint, being equal in volume to the third wetk, which was the largest of any week of the year 1L01, and the steady tone to prices and in many lines a high range of prices added to the excellent results. To say that trade in August was the most satisfactory in years is no exaggeration, and the month closed with a very promising outlook for the business in September. The drj- goods market is showing a good deal of activity and prices on bleached sheetings and prints are very firm at the revision of Friday. The millinery houses are enjoying very good trade, it setting in earlier than usual. Druggists are quite busy. Linseed oils are weak at quotations, as are most articles in the paint line. Wholesale grocers report their business as highly satisfactory. Sugars have taken on a steadier tone. Coffees are unchanged, but roasted grades have an easier tone as to prices, on certain descriptions. Canned goods continue firm in tone. Trices on sardines and other canned fish have an advancing tendency. There is a much stronger feeling in dried and evaporated fruits. On Commission row tomatoes are a shade firmer, some choice stock selling at SI per bushel, but tiO cents per bushel will cover 73 per cent, of the receipts. Potatoes, although unchanged, are tending lower in price. Watermelons are a drug on the market and peaches, unless choice, are moving slowJy. Other fruit is in good supply at much the same range of prices as ruled during the week. The produce market i casing off as to prices and the coming week will doubtless show a break in the market on eggs and butter, which are increasing in receipts. Young chickens; if in good condition, are active. The hide market continues dull and prices practicalls' the same as for some days past. The leather market is quite active and prices are steady, the advancing tendency having, for the time being, passed over. Provisions are active and prices are advancing in tendency. The local grain market, on Saturday, showed more strength than on any day of the week and for the time being a check on the downward course seems to have struck the market.

"There was good evidence early last week that some of tho $1.o.J cash which had 1 on sent to 1'hiladelpnia late In the previous wek had been returned to this city. How much of this money came back, how ver. it is ditlicult to estimate, but to the extent that it was returnel the condition of banks us regar!s cash was improved. It will be observed that the drain of money into the treasury from the banks for customs and internal revenue was quite large) last wek, and this movement may continue important in the near future. In such a case a concurrent movement to the Interior for crop purposes wouhl very soon seriously reduce the surplus reserve?. It is true that the assistant treasurer has been given authority to buy bonds to lileral amounts should they be offe-rod. but. judging from tho eomparath ly small tenders of. bonds which were made last week, relief to the market through bond purchases, should relief be needed, will be quite Ineffective. Any material advance in rates for money as the result of tene conlitions would be almo?t certain to cause such a fall in foreign exchange rates as to brine: g.dd from Kurope. This would afford Tar more effective relief to the market than anv cthr available method." I.oenl Hanks nnd Trawt Companies. PU. Afked.
