that n Chinese establishment was raid,d on

explained to be u common and essential
thing IN the complicated processes Of
Chinese arithmetic.

OUR CHICAGO MARKET REPORT.

cHIcAGo September l. 1885.
The wheat market is still very I'M
steady with prices low. Receipts Of
wheat for August are % per cent. larg-
er than for the same time last year
Inc shipment of graia and provisions
from this point last week decreased
about 1000 tons. but the low rates now
prevailing are expected to increase bust
ness IN that line. Prices will go up
Just as soon as the $4,000, 600 bushels
IN store here is decreased. The corn
market is more brisk than usual TO day.
The receipts are small aud prices are
higher than they were the latter part of
last week The shipping demand is
good enough to prevent any big break
IN prices at present. Oats are dull and
weak owing to large receipts The
barley and rye market is quiet, but
prices remain about the same as last
quotations. There is fair local and
shipping demand for fine creamery
butter; receipts are moderate and mar
ket steady The price of eggs is ad-
vaneed aud there is u good demand.
The receipts of cattle to-day are 5000
although heavy they are some $500
less than last week at this time. Two
thirds Of the receipts were Texans and
western cattle, and prices have touched
bottom on this class for at least time.
The receipts Of hogs to-day are 10000
against -, 400 last week at this time.
The market is weak with a decline in
prices of loc to l5c, caused by the large
receipts. The sheep market is quiet
and prices are lower owing to the large

A PLUNpERING ELEVATOR BUILDER
On Wednesday morning last, a young
man of about 10 years, applied to Mrs.
Fannie Sherman for board, casually
dropping the remark that he was look
ing for an opportunity to invest his sur
plus capital in an elevator, and if Lam
caster behaved toward him in the
manner his tender rearing required,
there was no good reason why the town
should not enjoy the blessing of Lis
financial support and personal charms.
He then meandered, spreading himself
brilliantly about town until a few min
utes before II NJ, when he again put in
an appearance and asked for room,
and r needle-and-t thread with which to
repair an abrasion in his coat. After
few moments ostensibly spent in the
womanly art Of consarcination. he de-
seconded to the parlor, politely returned
the needle and stated to Mrs. Sherman
that his trunk would be on hand at 2
o'clock. He then sailed forth and, not
returning at the appointed hour, an in
yestigation showed that he had gone
through some of the upper rooms of the
house, securing altogether some S15 in
money and jewelry. The amount being
SO small it was thought best not to in
woke the authorities, and the elevator
builder is therefore left entirely TO the
remorse of his own conscience.

The deceased was a son OF j. ID.
Harp, well-known and highly re-
spected citizen of Grant county. win
was a young man of excellent qualities,
due largely to the careful attention of
kind and loving parents. His gratitude
aad love for acls of kindness shown
him by friends was touchingly beauti-
ful. His first thought seemed to be al
ways for the happiness of others. His
patience during the long days of sick
ness won for him the sympathy and
love Of all. The nearest and dearest
friends did not realize the grandeur of
his character until they saw him calmly
waiting for the inevitable. His words
previous to the close of life that he
was going bone leaves no doubt but
that Will, having found life in Christ,
still lives and shall live forever. 1t is not
death perogative TO quench the glow
ing flame of that luminous spirit, and
while we extend cur sympathy to the
near friends, we wish to say that not
they alone are mourners, but that we
all shall miss him. A FRIENp.
