Eight or nine years ago. when hardly
out OF their teens, they were married.
They soon separated, however, and Mr..
Kehler paid his wife, through her parents,

tanned their child, beautiful little girl:
Mrs. Kehler went to her fathers house and
Mr.. Keller lived with his parents. Both

THE CHICAGO CORN CORNER.
What the New York sun Man
Thinks About II,

NEW YORK, Oct 3-The Sun prints the
following: Several weeks ago The Sun pre-
dicted the probability of a corner in corn,
and the prediction eliminated on Tuesdt by
that staple selling in Chicago at Sl.00 a
bushel, or about three times its average
price, and 20 cents higher than wheat
The oldest members of the Chicago
board of trade telegraphed to their friends
hero that they have never seen anything APP
preaching to this deal The fact, however,
is that circumstances have never favored a
deal of this kind before Corn was not arti-
ticially cornered 1t has cOrnered itself
There is not enough of it loft in the country
to last till the new crop begins to come in,
and the short interest outstanding is very
large. 1t would not be surprising to see
the same mheard of price for corn
rule at the close of October
and Observation-Disclosures, although at present
the price for these options is IS and 40 cents
respectively. September corn sold at 81 cents
less than three weeks ago, and probably not
as much corn will como into the market dur
ing the next eight weeks as came during the
past three weeks under the encouragement OF
advancing prices. The best posted dealers
in Chicago agree that the country is cleared
Of old corn In addition to this Comes the
news that that the new crop OF
corn will be late. The best proof OF
the artificial nature of Chicago prices fol
wheat is found in the fact that spring wheat
sold this week at the same price at which red
winter sold at Toledo--.S cents Now, the
freight from Chicago To Toledo is about 5
| cents, and the difference in the value of the
| red winter wheat is from cents to ) cents
mnIe Thus if red winter sells in Toledo al
IS cents No. spring ought to sell at Chicago
not higher than.72 cents But the manipu
Iators hope still to make things go their OWL
way in spite Of the natural laws regulating
| the commerce of the world.

perfectly satisfied, and SO is her husband Mr.
Simmons is a member of the Jones bell foundry
company and was forme rly connected with
the Broakside Hosiery company. He has nc
children, and the young lady was regarded
as the heir to his property. The groom said
that he had not entertained any idea of mar
rying his employers daughter, but had only
been i'll Simmons employ II short time when
he perceived that Emma was a
remarkably pretty girl, and fell deeply
in love with her, yet did not dare to tell
her SO until the recent remarkable number of
elOpements led him to make some remarks
upon the subject i'll Miss Simmons presence.
He added: Il don't know That the girl has
got any money, or that she will get any
from Simmons; but ! do know that he will
certainly make things lively around here
when he learns that we are married. ex.
pect he will be around here like maniac
None of the family mistrust that we are

married"
LATER-The latest of the above escapade
is that Mr.. Simmons reached home Wedne5-

his wrath took a vehicle and left for parts
