With Any. .The Fourth Reader of the State schoolbock series is now printed and in the hands of the binder, and the Third Reader will soon be finished. Both will be ready for market about July lst. They will take the place of the cumbersome Third Reader which the law at first unfortunately limited the series to. Both readers will be finely illustrated by appropriate engravings, which will bear close comparison with those in any set of readers published by private publishing tirms, The reading matter is new and carefully selected. Many of the lessons are well calculated to.give the children a good idea of the different«parts of their native State and the scenes and productions to be Many lessons bring before the pupils the myths that are hoary with antiq— uity, and which, as‘a general thing, are familiar to classical students, but which are here presented in such simple and attractive form that the veriest child cannot help understand and being interested by them. They will not only interest, but will arouse in the minds of pupils a thirst for more knowledge of the fairy land where such gems of story rre to be found, and thus will awaken a taste for reading. The pages of biography and of high-class literature have not been neglected either, and taken all in all it will be hard to find a set of readers in the market with as many points of excellent as those published by our State. Trade of the Country. Dun & Co. of New York, who are: standard authority, in their Monthly Review say .that.£*business begins in May in better con* dition than any other time since the break— down in May, 1893. Smaller in volume than then it is not shrinking, but enlarging. The chief obstacle to a more complete recovery is the anxiety of mauy to pluck the fruitbefore it is ripe. Holders of some staples have lifted them so far as to prevent their marketing. Consumption of materials in some branches is’ checked by advances which cannot be realized for finished products, and workers in some industries are demanding wages that cannot be paid out of any business. In spite of labor troubles the outlook brightens, money markets continue’ healthy, and with heavy sales of railway bonds abroad the deficiency in public revenue, $8,742,840, in April causes ‘no apprehension. Demands for' full restoration of wages to the level of 1892 have closed many woolen mills and threaten to close others. The rise in price of cotton goods continues. —~~--—+ ee A Big Fortune. DENVER, Col., May 9.—Tbomas Gwyillin, age 22, employed as driver on an express wagon, received word yesterday from the authorities in England that he had fallen heir to $600,000 by the death of a distant relative.

°ee Alaska Treadwell Mine. The following will give an idea as to the extent of operations at ‘the Alaska .Treadwell mine: A shipment of $61,689 in gold has just been received from the Alaska Treadwell mine on Douglas Island, Alaska. The output represents the run of the mill for thirty days, during which 25,039 tons of ore was worked, averaging $2.68 per top, and 243 tons of sulphurets were treated. As will be seen, the ore is very low grade, and it is only by handling a large quantity of itin the most economical way that a profit is realized from the operations.
