smoke, which came from a big hole
that was f burning in the floor of the
room he had entered.
The house was a double one and
the one chimney served for^both sides.
The family who had just moved out

SPIDER WEB SOCIAL
An Enjoyable Evening Spent at Home of A.
S. Clayton.
The Spider Web Social and Supper,
held at the residence of A. S. Clavton
on David street, Wednesday evening,
was a success financially* and a very
enjoyable affair.
An immense web made of cords
knotted, beginning in the centre of a
room covered the ceiling. The end
of the oords were knotted together at
one side of the room and on the other
end of each coird was a prize of some
kind. The idea was the unravelling
of the web by beginning to untie one
of the oords by any one person who
cared to try their luck. Some of the
prize caused great merriment. In the
web were two immense black spiders.

TRADE CONDITIONS.
I'.. G. Dun & Co. Review the Week's
Trmle.
NEW YORK, May 1G.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'b weekly- review of trade says:
Warmer weather has made it possi
ble for the retail trade to regain part
of the ertrllet" losses In volume of trans
action^. and the level of quotations for
staple lines of merchandise Is well
maintained. Wholesale trade in sea
sonable goods Is quiet, although there
is more or less supplementary business
and jobbers report increased activity
in several lines of wearing apparel.
Clothing manufacturers are busy on
fall samples, which are unusually late.
Furniture and harness factories are
notably well supplied with orders, and
there is no evidence of dullness in ma
chinery or hardware. At most points
there are indications of improvement
in mercantile collections, the favorable
progress of farm work hflving a good
influence at the interior, while heavy
sales of fertilizers testify to the exten
sive preparation for large crops.!
Sales of a million bales of cotton
options in one day and practically no
business In the 'actual sjaple indicate
the artificiality of the situation. Not
only all the consumers, but most of
the speculators, are certain that re
cent quotations have failed to express
the value of the staple, and in the
ultimate readjustment there must be
a severe reaction.
Grain is -extremely quiet In compari
son with the sensational gyrations of
the southern staple.

FRANCE AND THE MONKS.
Sympathy of the I'oimlare Evidently
With Capnehinn.
PARIS, May 10.? The government is
pursuing actively the repressive meas
ures against unauthorized congrega
tions. These measures are now princi
pally coptined to judicial action. The
opposition to them seems practically
to have ended, although the manifes
tations caused by the trials continue.
The trial of ten Capuchins at Le
nians drew a crowd of 3,000 sympa
thizers around the courthouse. The
monks were cheered, many women
strewing flowers in their pathway. In
court the superior of the Capuchins
made an eloquent defense and was
much applauded by those present. The
Capuchins, however, were sentenced to
pay a fine. After being sentenced the
monks were escorted back to their con
vent by the crowd, which chanted the
"Magnificat" on the way. Socialists
attempted a counter manifestation at
Lemans, but the sympathies of the
crowd evidently were with the monks,
and order was not disturbed.
Seven Redemptionists were arrested

took them to prison, where they Were
locked up.
Amid many manifestations of sym
