There is a prospect of
good prices for wheat and corn.
A strong foreign demand has
sprung up, which in addition to
the impossibility of moving the
new wheat crop for some time,
has put up the price of bread
stuffs rapidly. One operator in
Baltimore on Tuesday had a
general order to buy all the
wheat he could lay his hands on
until further orders, and anoth-
or had orders to purchase six
ty thousand bushels for ac-
count.-BeJ DIR Aegis.

was three years old, and got 50 low that we were
Obliged 10 keep her on pillow, without moving,
TO keep the little thing together. She was at

tending one being old DIR. John Stevens. They
all pronounced her case ineurable. She had
been sick about a year, when hearing OF the great
Blood Remedy, VEGErINE, i commenced giving
her that, and continued it regularly till she was
about seven years old, when she was pronounced
perfectly cured. During her sickness three
pieces Of bone were taken from her right arm
above the elbow, one of them being very long.
Several small pieces were also taken from her
left leg. She is now twenty-seven years old, and
Is enjoying good health, and has ever since she
was seven years old, with no signs Of Scrofule
or any other blood disease. Her arm is little
crooked, but she can use II almost as well as the
other. Her legs are Of equal length, and she Is
not In the least lame. Her case was SerOfula,
inherited in the blood; and would recommend
blood disease, If they wish to have a perfect
cure, 10 try VEGETINE, the reliable blood rem

Going to Run the Town.

Two bronco Cornish lighters created
considerable of a rumpus yesterday
afternoon, and apparently stared out
to run the "bloody" town. They COM
msnced operations in the Palace Sa-

off of the layout of the faro game in
that place. The dealer of the game
objected 10 that KIND OF a system being
played, and the smart Aleck was com
PEELED to give up the money he had
lost at the game. He next turned his
attention to the SENTINEL reporter, and
he and his companion, John Richards,
would probably have made short work
of us but for the interference of friends,
who took the fight off of u hands.
After this skirmi>h the men went
on the street and wanted to fight any
mar in the county, and would have
probably got a game but for the APP
pearance OF Deputy sheriff McKee,,
who poured oil of eloquence upon the
troubled waters and peace was restored
tor a time. Later in the evening tho
younger OF the broncoS again met our
reporter and insisted on having a fight,
and, items being scarce, the young
man was accommodated until he was
satisfied with the experiment. and
found himself meandering toward the

after his release he left town and was
