He is at present superintendent of schools In Munlslhg, Mich. The enrollment of the University of Michigan this year Is 4,13d, and It is found In making the tabulations that every state and territory In the United States, with the single exception of Delaware, is repre sented. Michigan is in tiie lead with 2,411 students, und Ohio comes next, with Illi nois a close second. Twenty-one students have gone from Bryn Mawr to the medical schools of Johns Hopkins and other schools. Three have ranked first In the state board ex aminations of New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Maryland. The courses in chemistry and biology can be made a direct prepara tion for the degree of doctor of medicine. There seems to be quite a movement among graduates of colleges who received their education on scholarships to repay the money to the Institution when success in life la attained. An alumnus at Brown university hus recently paid buck schol arships for his entire course, and the money will be used for the furnishing and equipment of the philosophical seminary. Vale university has more than bOO In vestments of ull kinds, Including 200 loans on reality, many of them small. The treasurer hus heretofore had much care, In fact, much greater tlutn the total umouut Involved ought to Justify. There will hereufter be an investment commit tee to unaist and advise the treasurer In regard to funds, which will Include the president of the New York Trust company und president of the Title Ouarantee and Trust company, both of thum graduates of Yalo. President Roosevelt, at a recent dinner In New York, made a suggestion that chairs In Culllc literature und language be established at various universities lu the I'niled States. For the past eight years Harvard has maintained a department in Celtic, which, ulthough unendowed, has managed to get along with appropriations from other sources. If the department weie endowed there would undoubtedly be belter facilities offered, but whether this will come as a sequence of the suggestion of Pruuldoat lcoosevelt remains to be seen. OCT OF TIIE ORDINARY. A Mexican and a full-blooded Pawnee In dian were married In the probate court at Pawnee, Kan., the other day. Neither un derstood the language of the other. The little story and a half high house In Milan, O., In which Thomas Alva Edison was born is still standing, although not lit for occupancy. Dr. F. 11. Bnow of the University of Kan sas has in the laat fifteen years brought together an unusual collection of meteoric stones thul have fallen in Kansas. A German physician hus devised a simple apparatus for tiie cure of snoring, which hold up the lower Jaw and prevents it from dropping during sleep. The snorer stops snoring us soon as the mouth is closed. A Montreal couple, Pierre Forget and his wife, have Just celebrated the seventy-sixth anniversary of their marriage. Mr. Forget Is luO years and 6 months old, while his wife is 9i, and both ore In good health. One of their tli4rteen children will herself celebrate her golden wedding three years hence, though the Is only tl now. One hundred crows whlped a big eagle In a fight at the furm of Darlington Beebe of Westtown, Pa., and drove It several miles from the place. The crows attacked the king of birds In a body, and at one time hud It so exhuusted tnat it alighted In u field und fell over on the ground, though It finally escaped. "Qeorge Black's fine team of sorrels ran away Wednesday morning," announces the WardavlUe, N. Y., News. "One of the horses, worth 8200, was badly Injured, we are sorry to atuie; tha new buggy, valued at $160, waa smashed to pieces; the harness was broken in several places, and It la to be regretted that a flue dog belonging to Mart Simpson waa run over and hurt by the team1 All of this was so exciting that tiie news seems to have come near forgetting to add that "Black was killed, in the runaway." i CONDITION OF OMAHA'S TRADE Better Weather Laat Week Improred Be tail Business to Quite an Extent. ADVANCE ORDERS COMING IN FREELY near Market Mather Weak, bat Coffee In Strona PoalIMn-Cotloa Uonda Quoted Higher and Woolen Goods Firm. Weather conditions were more favorable last week and as a result both wholesalers and retailers enjoyed a better demand for seaseinahle goods. More buyers were In tho city last week than arrived the week bo fore ond Jobbers report a very fair house trade. Traveling nien also met with better success on the road In their campaign for Immediate as well as for future business. Taking everything together loi-al Jobbers feel that they have nothing to complain of. In nearly all lines they find that the volume of their business for the llrst half of May Is fully equal to and In tunny cases In excess of tho same period of last year In spite of the unfavorable weather conditions. Reports from the country Indicate that retailers are doing a very satisfactory busi ness und that their lines are being broken quite rapidly. Of course some lines of strictly warm weather goods are moving a little slowly, but aside from these business hus been of good proportions. As soon ns warm weather does arrive there seems to be no doubt but what the demand for sum mer weights wfll be fully up to expecta tions. There has been nothing startling In the way of market fluctuations since last re port. Prices on uractlcallv all lines see in to be on a good, llrm foundation, and so far as can Do learned those who are In a posi tion to know have great conlldence In fu ture values. They argue that the 'demand Is fully equal to the capacity of manufac turers nnd us long us that Is the case there Is no reason for a reduction of prices, but on tne otner nana tne tendency should be upward. Collections are reported as being In good condition for this time of year and no com plaints on that score hove been heard. Sugar Mar Hnse Off. Wholesale grocers report the volume of buslnoss as being fully as good as it was a year ago ut this time. The market on most lines Is also' In good condition, but the sugar market last week was a little un settled. Wliile there have been no changes on re lined grades and a little firmer feeling on raws abroad, still local Jobbers sav they would not be surprised to see slightly' lower prices, iney say this, notwithstanding the periods of tho vear Is at hand. The coffee market was u little Irregular mm wee, out ciosea in anout tho same position It was at the dose of the previous week. Desirable grades from the old crop are now very scarce and coinnuind a round premium over tiie general market. Tho gen eral Impression Is that prices have reached the low point nnd an advancing market will be experienced from this time on. That ap plies particularly to all grades of mild cof fees. The cheese market Is a trifle lower than It was a week ago, but that was expected, as the production Is now rapidly Increasing and still lower prices are exacted. Nearlv all the factories are now In operation and in a short time surplus stock will begin to accumulate. There has been no change since the last report In the quotations ruling on canned corn and tomutoe-s, but there is a firmer feeling on the latter and a disposition to udvanco prices. The consumption of both corn und tomatoes Is increasing and tho surpius stock will doubtless be pretty well cleaned up before the new goods aro ready. The market on mustard sardlneB Is very strong at the advance recently noted, but one-quarter oils are offered for forward delivery at 26c per case less than priceB recently ruling. The pack oi asparagus on the cost has been very disappointing, according to ull reports. It Is claimed that none of the packers will be able to deliver in full. Prices on red sock eye salmon, it is thought, will open at about 26c less than the opening prices a year ago. Recent re ports indicate thut tne linn are beginning to run in pretty fair numbers in the Puget Bound district und cannera will soon be in active operation. The supply of pink sal mon is practically cleaned up. In the dried fruit linn trade Is reported as being active in practically all lines. Prices on peaches and spices are lower than they have been, the market being affected by prices for fall delivery. Peaches have opened on about the same basis they did a year ago, with apricots considerably less In price. The rice situation has - been attracting considerable attention of late. It seems that the abnormally low prices, particularly for Japans, that have prevailed this season have given operators In the south their coveted opportunity, and It Is understood that thov have captured practically every thing In sight In the way of Japans. Prices on Japans have already been advanced Vt'ti'a on all grades, and still further ad vances would nut be at ull surprising to the trude. Advance In Bleached Cottons. The market on cotton goods may be said to be In a good strong position. In the last lew days prices on leudlng brands of bieuched cottons have been advanced o per yard und brown goods are equally strong. It la claimed that this advance Is due In a lurge measure to extensive sales for export. In view of tills situation well informed buyers see no opporuuity fur lower prices during the present summer season. Woolen goods of all descriptions are also in a good strong position und lu brisk demand, so that the outlook for a healthy market on woolen goods is fully us good as In the case of cotton goods. In regard to the condition of trade, local jobbers suy that a large number of mer chants were In the city last week and as a result house trade, was of good propor tions. Orders from salesmen, and also those direct from merchants, were liberal, due no doubt to the more favorablo weather. As was generally expected, as soon as the weather became more season able, traveling men met with better suc cess last week than they have of late in capturing future business. That branch of the dry goods trade is now very satisfac tory and there Is no doubt but what Job bers will have more orders for fall de livery on tholr books at the close of tho season than they ever had before. Tho demand Is general for all lines, such us blankets, undurwear, hosiery, cloaks and duck-llr.ed goods. Dress goods have also been selling exceptionally well for full de livery. Hardware Active and Steady. The demand for hardware was again brisk last week, but the excessive rains through out the country tributary to this mariit has naturally had a tendency to lessen the demand to some extent. In spite of that fact, however, sales so far this mont.i have been up to and a little In excess of the same period of last year which Jobbeis consider rather remarkable in view of th condition prevailing. With settled weather from now on u brisk trade Is anticipated an tnere Is an Immense amount of building planned In this territory, not only In tho cltits and small towns, but in the country as well, which means that there will b an enormous consumption of builders' hard ware and nil such goods. This In addi tion to the ordinary demand for all season able goods. It Is thought, will make this year the most prosperous of any yet ex perienced. M , The market on staple lines of hardware fs In Just about the same position it was a week ago. no Important changes having taken place. The tnarket, though, Is In a good, healthv condition and so far us can bo seen the tendency of prices Is upward rather than otherwise. Tho demand for farm Implements still continues very satisfactory for the time of vear, both with retailers and whole salers. Farmers seem to have plenty of money this year nnd as a result they are buying new and up-to-date Implements In stead of making the old ones do another season, ns they are very ant to do when they are short on funds. Tho demand for wagons and buggies Is also In good shajie. Fair Demand for Leather Goods. The demand for shoes cannot be clussed better tinui fair. What Is needed to iniiku the shoe business brisk is wanner weather und when It does arrive an active demand la extweted. The season is now so far advanced that summer heat is liable to arrive ut any thno and when that does hapien dealers figure that everybody will be after light-weight footwear ut the same time, with the result that In a Jaw dayj they will make up for lost time. Merchants are naturally getting a little anxious to cut their stocks loose, but at the same time very few complaints are heard. In a wholesale way. Immediate business is a little quiet, tho same as urual at this time of the year. A fair sizing up bublness though is expected a llltlo later on. Ad vance orders are coming In quite freely, but an improvement In that line Is looked for with the advent of a better retail trade In the country. Coffee Market. NF,W YORK, May 80 COFFEE The market for futures opened steady at a de cline of 6'ul0 points under model ate liqui dation, mostly from Wall street sources, following disappointing European rabies and laraer primary receipts.

WOOL The) Boston Commercial Bulletin says of the wool market: The market Is stronger and is rather a dealer's market than a consumer's. Commercial speculation has taken place In all wools and less has gone Into consumption than last week. Domestic wools have been eagerly bought nnd prices on both foreign nnd domestic have ad vanced appreciably. Tho states west of the Mississippi are about sold and tho prices In the fleece states are becoming pro hibitory. All the markets abroad are strong and the London sales closed on May 17 from 10 to 60 per cent higher than the March sales, while the Liverpool sains of East India wools opened on Tuesday last at an advance of from 6 to 10 per cent. The shipments of wool from Boston from December 29. 19"4. according to tho same authority, are 97,624.044 pounds, against R3, 944.211 pounds nt tho same time tho pre vious vear.
