It is probable that the Ministerial association will arrange to hold open air meetings on Sunday afternoon in the different parks of the city same as they did last summer. The matter was discussed but no final action taken at this morning's session of the asso ciation in the Y. M. C. A. chapel. Owing to the small attendance nothing of importance was taken up. Rev. E.

It will be but a hort time until the board takes up its annual work. 8ound Absorbers. Objects and materials in an auditorium absorb sound in a striking degree. The standard of perfect absorption taken Is an open window, through which sound passes and does not return. A large audience absorbs 96 per cent of -the sound; a Persian rug, 29 per cent of the incident sound; upholstered furniture or. oil paintings. 29 per cent; curtains, 23 per cent; linoleum on the floor, 12 per cent; pine flooring. 6 per cent; glass. 3 per cent; brickwork or plaster. 2V& per cent. This explains why It is. necessary to speak louder to a large than to a small audience; also why a hall'.Trlth unpleasant echoes when empjymay become easy to speak in when filled.

Crawford, pastor of the Woodlawn Park Methodist church, claiming fifty thousand dollars damages. She . charges slander because she. alleges he. connected her name with that of the Rev. John D. Leek, in a recent church scandal. ' LEPROSY. After One Ravag the Disease May Li Dormant For Years. The leper in the settlement at Molokai is far better off than the leper who lies in hiding outside. Such a leper is a lonely outcast, living in con stant fear of discovery and slowly and surely rotting away. The action of leprosy is not steady. ltJays hold of Its victim, commits a ravage and then lies dormant for an indeterminate period. It may not commit another ravage for five years or ten years or forty years, and the patient may enjoy uninterrupted good health. Rarely, how ever, do these first ravages cease of themselves. The skilled surgeon is re quired, and the skilled surgeon cannot be called la for the leper who is in hiding. For instance, the first ravage may take the form of a perforating ulcer In the sole of the foot. When the bone is reached necrosis sets in. If the leper is in hiding he cannot be operated upon, the necrosis will continue to eat its way up the bone of the leg. and in a brief and horrible time that leper will die of gangrene or some other terrible complication. On the other hvnd, if that same leper is in Molokal the surgeon will operate upon the foot, remove the ulcer, cleanse the bone and put a complete stop to that particular ravage of the disease. A month after the operation the leper will be out tiding on horseback, running foot races, swimming in the breakers or climbing the giddy sides of the valleys for mountain apples. And. as has been stated before, the disease, lying dormant, may not again attack him for five, ten or forty years. Jack London in Contemporary Review. A Compositor's Blunder. Some years ago the following apologetic explanation for a compositor's blunder appeared in a leading weekly literary journal published in London: "In our last number, as we discovered unfortunately too late for correction, we announced that Mr, John Stuart Mill's inaugural address lately delivered before the University of St. Andrews had since been republished by him In the form of a five shilling elephant. Even the most ardent believers in Mr. Mill's powers among our readers will probably have received this announcement with some Incredulity. Tho fact is that by an error of the press the word 'elephant was substituted for "pamphlet, and the mistake, although the proof was read and reread, unluckily escaped the corrector's eye." Grttnt GrMti. Gretna Green is a parish in Scotland, just "over the border," where marriages used to be performed according to the law of Scotland. The ceremony was binding performed by a layman In the simplest form. when, being registered, the parties, in the presence of witnesses, were declared man and wife. The first person who officiated at these strange unions was George Scott, who began "his unlicensed ministry about the year 1758, ' "

BUSINESS REVIEW OF THE PAST WEEK BY HENRY CLEWS

During the past few weeks the stock market has undergone a considerable advance. Some stocks are too high in view of their small returns to investors, while others are relatively low, having been neglected by both investment and speculative buyers. As a result we are likely to 6ee more or less of the evening-up process in which medium grade Investments, especially the better class of, preferred industrials, may receive increased attention. The industrial and commercial ouilook continues satisfactory- In the steel trade activity has been especially noticeable, April proving a banner month for the receipt of orders. Building operations are particularly active in all the large cities, and this factor in connection with demands from the railroads for structural material constitutes the chief reason for Improvement in iron and steel. Our railroads it must be remembered, have been pursuing a policy of rigid economy ever since the panic, and now that earnings are improving and the money market is easy, conditions favor not only the making of repairs which have been delayed, but also the carrying out of various improvements and extension which had previously been deferred. In all probability the railroads will be large buyers of materials for some time to come, which will certainly be an important element in business recovery. Bank clearing are already am ple proof of the latter; returns from the first week in May showing an- increase of over 17 per cent, and these gains being well distributed over all sections of the country. Railroad earnings also show encouraging results, and the reports on the forty-one roads DANIEL VV. MARMOM A DEATH VICTIM : Indianapolis, May 10 Daniel W. Marmon, formerly of Richmond, member of the Nordyke and Marmon com'pany, died today. "He owns much property in Richmond. He is a brother-in-law of C. G. Carpenter, this city. COLORED MEN TO BEJIVEII TRIAL Serious Charges Are Placed Against Them. Jude Milton and Mike Coleman, both colored, are to be tried In circuit court Thursday on the charge of assault and battery with Intent to commit robbery. They have retained counsel. The state has asked that the case be heard by jury. The young men profess thelriunocence. ; It will be the first jury case of the April term. Cunning of tho Fox. A fox on emergency will sham death to perfection. A master of bounds one noosed a fox in a whip as he bolted before a terrier. The fox appeared tc have been strangled. When held up by the sera flf of the neck his eyes were sees, to be closed, his jaws gaped, and the body hung limply down from the hand. He was placed tenderly on the ground, only to dash off to covert. London Standard.

Still another evidence of bus! ness improvement Is the diminishing number of failures; the total of which in April were only 000, compared with 1,300 in the same month of 1906, the volume of liabilities for the same pe riods being $1000,000 and $2O,00O.000i Our crop outlook though not entirely satisfactory is distinctly more assuring than a month ago. The season is backward owing to prevalenca of cold weather, but with the approach of higher temperaturue considerable improvement may be looked for. There is as yet nothing disturbing in the agricultural outlook, excepting the damage to winter wheat, which ha been amply discounted; and as prices for farm products are still very high and likely to remain so for another crop year prospects favor another sea son of prosperity to the agricultural classes who form so important a con stituency In our population. Wall street was pleased by the supreme court decision on commodity clause; not so much' from the fact that it fav ored certain corporations as that it im posed an important check upon rad leal and socialistic attacks on capital. The courts are more firmly established than ever on the principle that prop erty shall not be taken away from the owners thereof without due process of law, and that all attempts at confiscatory actions shall be prevented. As this is one of a series of decisions, which while tending to discourage the abuses of capital have stoutly defend ed property rights, its effect upon fin ancial , sentiment Is important and sound.
