The Wheat Market.
LIVERPOOL, Jan. s,

LIvERPOOL, Jan. 8, 1885.
From Hausman, Kufeke & Co., we quote
the following:
Last week our market has been char
acterized by great activity and considerable
speculation Of outsiders. Under these in.
fuences aided by large consumptive de-
mand, wheat for forward shipment has
advanced SO per quarter, and spot wheat
about Sd per GENITAL from the bottom.
California fours are about cleared from
the market Walla Wala fours are still
fairly plentiful and are held for more
money.
Minnesota Patents are scarce and sell
readily at from 1876 to "a. Bakers grades
are higher.
First rate Winter Wheat Patents have
advanced less than other kinds, and ad-
vance is hardly obtainable Extra Fancy
and Fancy are l6 higher and the advance
is freely paid.
Hungarian -four is scarce and exceeding
ly firm; it is 2-6 higher from the lowest.
Imports for the week ending January 3rd,
are about 3ls, 1854 qrs., which is about the
average, making the total imports from
Sept. lst, s, 4sO, 90l qrs.
A circular from tine same firm dated San
Francisco, February 9th, says:
There have not been any changes in the
Markets on this Coast since our last issue,
but the London and Liverpool Markets have
again declined, from to pence quarter,
making business in wheat between here and
Europe quite impracticable.
Farmers here are not willing to take
less price for their grain, no matter up or
down. Market across the water, and ocean
freights remain in about the same position.
This makes it bad for all concerned, and
business is once more at standstill. We
quote wheat to-day, at from $l.27a to
Sl.32a, as to grade, and freights 40 to 1875,
per Iron, U. X.

Monroe Musings.
MONROE, Oregon, Feb. l6, 1885.


There was last week in Monroe feat per-
formed which we suppose in medical science
| was of no uncommon occurrence, but, to
the unsophisticate it was truly wonder.
1t was the extraction of live animal from
the body of a living man. This animal is
Familiarity known to the Ethereal Medico
Cork Screw Latin scholar as the Teania
Solum, or the Bothirocephalus Latus, but
to the common intellect it is known by the
euphonious name of tape worm. 1t is con-
ceded in natural science to be parasite
with many qualities in general common to
the mistleto found growing on White Oak
timber, but it is 81 Generees in one sense.
1t is formed of segments and each of those
segments contain within itself the full pow
ers of selfproduction, and those segments
can be easily severed from the parent trunk
without any apparent injury to either.
We will refer the dubious and doubtful to
DR.. Workman, the extractor. This one
was found by actual measurement to be
over 2l feet long The only inference we
drew from the facts, was, that if as peace
able and quiet person as Mr.. w. Mail
seems to be has such things in him, then
there must be people within the knowledge
of all OF us, who are chuck full of cent?

There is new firm of M. DIS in town.
DR.. F. Wortman has associated with him
DIR. &. H. Flett. We wish them success as
they are both studious and careful.
The firm of Wilhelm & Looney are pre-
pairing to rebuild their storehouse that fell
under the snow pressure this winter: The
prospect of spring trade demands more
room.
There is an oversight in our efficient aud

A Profitable Runaway.

Last Monday afternoon the express team
took little spin, and in the course of their
ramblings ran onto the sidewalk and tore
away the unsightly and much abused iron
pump in front of Allen s. Woodward's drug
store. The pump. situated as it was on
the sidewalk, has been the cause of many
unspeakable epithets by pedestrians on a
dark night when coming in contact with the
immovable thing. The downfall of the
said pump is a source. of satisfaction to
every one No damage to team or express
wagon.

Is IT Nor TRuE?-There can be no argu-
ment as to the qualities essential to per-
feet remedy for the ills arising from dis
ordered or inactive condition of the Liver,
Stomach and Bowels. Everyone will admit
that it should be perfectly safe for old and
young of both sexes, at any and all times;
that it should be acceptable both to the
fail to act promptly and thoroughly yet
painlessly, and should give strength to those
organs. It is now well known that Syrup
of Figs possesses those qualities in pre-
eminent degree. Allen b Woodward are
agents for this place.

but from one of those bold sheep-killers,

When first observed he WAS on the fiat just
above town at the junction of Mary's river
river he started down one of the streets,
when David Osburn gave chase ON horse

made his escape, bearing the marks OF

that he will visit our city again soon.
