Milwaukee Markets.

The wheat market yesterday was unsettled
and prices ruled somewhat lower, in sympath,
with the downward movement in Eastern and
European markets though the bulls made .
desperate effort to arrest the decline. Liver
pool was 1@3 pence per GENITAL lower, as com
pared with the closing prices Of last week, and
New York fell from 1851. SO to 1.32@1. 49, while
the winter wheat markets were lower, in SYM
pathy. Here the opening sales of Decembe,
wheat were at LIS, but liberal purchases for s
brief time put prices up to 1.19s4@1. 1917, aftel
which reaction set in, and closing sales were
at 1.1S11.-Sentiael, October Doth.

The democrats nominate candidate
for member of assembly from this district
next Friday afternoon, October 31st, at
Fuermanns saloon. AS of yore there is
a multiplicity of candidates, in fact the
woods are full of them this year. This
city will present II. Mulberger, c. Reub-
hansen, F. P Brook, H. Finn and per-
haps several others to the convention.
The town of Watertown will come up
hoping to nominate either G.. Woolensack

HI. E. Humphrey and John Glib. Con-
cord has not been heard from but we be-
lieve she presents no aspirants for the
democratic nomination contenting her
self with having the greenback standard
bearer, w. Sacia, hail from her borders.
1t is not unlikely that the delegates will
be unable to select candidate from
among these names mentioned and new
man will have to be taken from the ranks
of the modest and retiring portion of the
democratic brethren in order to get a
| nominee. 1t is safe to assume the con-
vention will present lively appearance
and that there will be fun among the

FORT ATKINSON.

This city was quite extensively visited
by burglars on Wednesday night The
safes Of Cornish & Curtis, Wilcox & Co.,
and the Postoffice, being forcibly opened
and their contents rifed. Fortunately
but little money was kept in either of the
safes. At Cornish & Curtis 500 was
taken, at the Postoffice about $13, and at
Wilcox q Co.'S between $500 and $780,
W. After gaining entrance to the Post
office, the safe, which is not burglar proof
was forced open by cutting hole with
cold chisel near the knob, and prying off
the outer plate with a bar The same
course was had with the safe of Cornish
& Curtis. Wilcox & Co. have fire proof
vault with heavy iron dor and combi-
nation lock; owing to some difficulty in
working the combination the outer door
was not locked. The robbers opened this
door then cut a hole in the sheet iron
door so as to withdraw the bolt on the in
side. In the vault was common KEY
lock safe which wasopened without injury,
taking what money was in in the drawer,
and scattering the papers over the floor.

Professor Richards Lectures.

The great sensation Of this week will
be Professor Richards lectures on chem
istry and electricity From the accounts
we see in the St. Paul and Minneapolis
Pioneer Press, and other papers, we ex-
pect the experiments to be of the most
brilliant and surprising character. To
those unacquainted with the marvels of
the secret art which unravels the inner
most mysteries Of the material universe,
there is nothing more like magic than the
sequence of chemical reaction which
evolve solid from fluid, and gas from solid
fire from water and ice from fire. These
experiments are accompanied with the
most beautiful phenomena, far SURPRISING
the gorgeous transformation scenes Of the
stage, and excelled only by the mightier
play of the same forces in the thunder
storm, the earthquake, the meteors and
auroras The lectures we believe to be at
once Of the most popular and the most
philosophic character, easily comprehend
ed in connection with the dazzling ex-
periments which illustrate them, and
adopted to open a new world to the I'M
derstanding of the auditors. We hope
our people will show sufficient apprecia-
ton of the opportunity to give the profess
sor series Of full houses. Parties pur-
chasing single tickets can exchange them
for course tickets at course rates before or
after the first lecture.

the most painful effect on me, for then I

at last somebody recommended ST. Jacobs
oil, and |. concluded to try it, but with
little hope for relief. Having hardly used
half a bottle, the pains dismissed, and to
day am well and hardy once more. The
small sum Of fifty cents had cured me.
