The Addtaco Club met yesterday aftornoon with Mrs. Frank H. Rollins, always & popular hostess. Quite a number of ladies were so fortunate as to be present at this most delightful meeting. The items for the afternoon were full of interest, es pecially an account of recent terrible disaster, written by one who was Ion the Titanic. The literary feature was a fine paper by Miss Josephine Whitney on George III., who reigned longer than any preceding English king. This was heard with much pleasure and Interest. Moat delicious strawberry jices were then served and thoroughly I enjoyed. After which the club adjourned "In the hope to meet shortly again." FAMOUS HUNTER HERE The many friends of Captain D. i J. Silverthorn of Abel's Bay Hyde | county ?re glad to Bee him in the city.

More and more it is beome the sober opinion of onlookers lOthing is to be feared from the t iverthrown of both Republican fac- ( ions. For the lirst time in more han a score of years, the so called 'Business Interests" are not raising he old. pre-election cry of "Domoratio-success means business ruin.' ] rhe stock market "bulls" never were nore optimistic than they are now. Upward (iocs the l*rice Along with about everything else | hat the people use. the price of wrung paper has now hit the up grade, rhe reason, of course, is the fact hat the mills have all boon organizid into a trust, and tils trust is over ' 'apitalized to an extent probably 1 greater than any monoply yet or- ( janlzed in this country. When the . American Writing t*aper Company vas formed, common stock was piled >n bonds, and preferred on the eoninon, until a mighty pile was erect ?d. On this great mass or water. < lividends must be paid, and these , lividends can be paid only by the imposition, on the public, of increased prices. Competition having been suppressed, the trust is now free to charge what it pleases. How I>lsM>lIotion Helps. Standard Oil stocks has increased greatly In value since the recent dis-' solution decision of the United States ; Supremo dourt. In the report of a j prominent Wall Street firm issued i recently, there is significant langu-. age: "Whatever the effect of the. dis-' solution order had on actual values, j It Is apparent that the recent specu- . lative activity in the component ; stocks has put quotations so much ! above the former average, as express-i ed particularly in Standard Oil .-stock, that the Rockfellers could not sell uui now, u mey uesireu. ai a niucu higher figure than ever before. Dissolution has greatly enriched I hem." Having enriched the Standard OilCompany and the Tobacco trust through dispulltlot; suits, the Taft administration has now starts d similar proceedings against the harvester trust. Doubtless this trust will be1 duly thankful for the favor. NOTED EVANGELIST COPC TO CITY i At the First Methodist Church' tomorrow morning nr 11 o'clock, the. pastor. Rev. It. H.
