Labor disturbances the industrial and commercial situat- tion at the present time, curtailing the output of a few much needed products and reducing the demand for all com- modities. Aside from this adverse in fluenec, the situation has improved, although progress is slow and fre- quently interrupted. Another week has put much wheat and cotton be- yond danger and brought other crops nearer maturity. Dealers are pro viding for the future a little more free- ly, and in several important branches of industry orders come forward ip greater bulk. Owing to special con- ditions, the leading branches of manu. facture do not make uniform progress, complications as to supplies of raw material making the current situation particularly puzzling at the textile mills and shoe shops, Dry goods buy- ers are still arriving at the principal cities, and footwear purchasers have taken sample lines to an extent that promises well for next Spring.

One of the most striking instances of a warning dream was the story nar rated of the late Lord Dufferin, which is, to the best of our knowledge, quite well authenticated. Lord Dufferin was staying at a coun try house in Ireland; and early one morning he heard, or dreamed he heard, a sound of wheels approaching the main entrance. He naturally bur ried to the window to see whal Was afoot; and was pot unnaturally sur prised to see a hearse drawn up be fore the door of the mansion. He especially noted the driver's face—s very unpleasant one of a smooth past) complexion. He concluded that a ger vant must have died suddenly and that the coffin was being removed al this unusual hour in order to cause ns shock to any of the guests in the house, As nothing was sald about.the mal ter in the morning, he made up his mind that he had dreamed the whole affair, as was probably the case.
