THE BUSINESS WORLD.
COMM ERCIAL.

DALLAS, July 1.-The past week has been
very dull and the past month chiefly dull. In
any year the harvest month Is so, ana no
particular cause need be assigned IN the pres
ent case. But this is an exceptional of sea-
son in trade There are several causes That
have combined to bring about II condition of
markets favorable only to buyers for long ac-
count. The reaction downward, brought
about by corners IN produce,
is one of the leading causes.
foreign millers have substituted eastern
wheat for American. This has gone on to an
extent that has so far destroyed export trade
as to reduce prices y per cent. Wheat at
Dallas will not bring so cents this year for the
grade that sold at 81 last year Wool growers
Dallas buyer has 10000 pounds he
paid Is cents and over for and unless
he can hold II he will lose heavily. Indeed,
he may lose In any case, but the TACT starcS
him in the face that If he must close out ut
Eastern buyers offers at this date, he will
lose nearly 5000 at once. In the midst OF
this desolati0n II few good OmenS appear.
August cotton appreciated cent from OPEN
ing to close to-day. Cotton Is stronger
than on any day for Il month past.
Securities of all sorts are selling at higher
rates, and this shows better financial con-
dition. Its certain that the colossal swlndles
of certain Wall street operators caused gem
eral decline. Money disappeared from the
exchanges. II was impossible to get 1t on
any terms lately This broke down trading
value, in fact. To-day the spot staple
at New York returned TO II cents for the
middle grade, at which figure IL has held out
in Southern markets. The first picking will
Take place in twenty days from to-day The
premium for the first new bale, II is thought,
will be won by n colordd prairie farmer,
whose cropis planted about SIX miles from
this city.

The Habits OF the Frog.

The frog spends most of his time in
the water, when he loafs under a stone,
but he can hop across the country when
his native pond dries up in style that
would discount an American camel
making for an oasis. When he finds
another pool of water he stays there
and makes himself comfortable. Oc-
casionally he will stop and spend some
time in moist locality, where there is
nothing bat ooze or damp leaves. He
has four non-palmated fingers, rudi-
mentary thumb, and enormous extensor
muscles in his hind legs. He lives upon
bugs, and has been known to swallow
small birds, but, like other amphibia,
and unlike the ward politician, he can
not drink. His tongue is fastened to
the lower jaw at the tip instead of at the
base, and he sings it out after a cricket
or June bug like a laSso. The encyclo-
p9dia states that the frog is peculiar
for the presence of occipital condyles
and the development of the transverse
processes of the sacrum, but most peo-
pie do not believe this. His greatest
popularity lies in the fact that there is
nothing to eat on his bones except the
muscles of his legs.
The number of frogs sent North
during the spring and summer is enor-
nous. From the tributaries of the
Chesapeake Bay alone the frog crop
averages 100000 year. In the salt
marshes of the South they grow larger
than they do elsewhere, but the meat is
coarser and not so edible. Frogs are as
prolific as herring. Millions of little
black tadpoles infest every mudpuddle.
The knowing fish esteem them very
highly as food, but the tadpole who es-
capes consumption for three weeks
drops his tail, which is only temper
airy affair anyway, grows four ample
legs and goes out to be "bloody"
himself until he is shot or hooked to
satiate the inveterate nav of the lord
of creation. 49, Baltimore Sun.
