GRAIN AND PROVISION MARKETS:
CHICAGO.


CHICAGO April "a There was general feeling
of weakness in all quarters on Change to-day, and
each pit while sharing the fee ing of others, had
its own depressing influence. Wheat suffered from
the influence of corn, and suffered still more by
unloading by the bears, who took stuff yesterday
but becams afraid of it, May opened at Sl5sc, sold
down to Sic, up to size, down to 604QSO5c, up to
Sllsc, back TO S07Sc, and closed at Slhc.
In corn the cause of decline was evidently largo
receipts and a large per cent of No. corn coming.
May, after opening at 5isC, sold at 5i5sc, or Ac,
better than last night, and from this point there
was decline of lC to $3.50, the bottom price for
the day. Afterward there was reaction toward
54l4c, and later sales were close around until
543sc. The taking of vessel room for 10000
bushels TO Buffalo helped the strength of the mar
ket at the close.

mostly between sCalpers. Receipts of hOgs were
fair, and prices higher. There was an absence of
buying orders from the outside, the general specu-

The fits and starts-using these words in
their literal meaning-of the nervous people
often strikes the beholder as ludicrous. The
nerves of hearing of such unfortunates are
neinfnlly acute, and impinged by abrupt, un.
expected noises, lead them sometimes to per-
form antics worthy of a jumping jack AT the
cot of Nervousness, in mostinstances, is non.

Bound Over for Perjury.

At the last September term of the
Audubon district court there was tried
the case of the Des Moines Saddlery,
Hardware and Manufacturing company
against M. +. Jenkins and ID. A. Car
penter, partners under the name, style
and firm of jenkins 4 Carpenter do
Ing business at Brayton. One of the
defendants, NJ. +. jenkins, while on the
witness stand denied the existence of
such firm, and said that within his
knowledge the names had never been
coupled in business connection. The
Des Moines firm was not satisfied that
this was the case and last week brought
action against said defendant for per-
jury. The preliminary examination
was brought before Justice loft, in
Extra last Thursday and Friday, and
papers were produced bearing the sig
nature of jenkins 4 Carpenter, which
the prosecution think they have proven
were written by defendant Jenkins.
The justice bound Mr.. jenkins in the
sum of $500 to appear before the next
term of district court. The charge is
indeed grave, and upon conviction the
penalty is the penitentiary. 1t is need
less to say that the result is surprise
to great many, as Mr.. jenkins is an
old and respected citizen of the county,
and so far as public sympathy may ex-
tend In this direction it is accorded
him. |. l.. Statzell appears for the
prosecution and Nash, Phelps 4 Green
for the defense.

Further Prospecting for Coal.

The Extra coal find and the finding
Of like substance at practically the
same depth on the farm of |. n. Brown
In Greeley township, have resulted in
increasing the faith of capitalists to
q point that shall forever settle all
question rs to whether or not there IL
coal In the county. During the latter
part of last week u sufficient sum was
raised in Extra to assure the enterprise
so that work will Immediately proceed.
The plan IL to secure an expert and to
sink drills under his direction, u half u
mile or mile apart, by which means
it will be learned IL the coal lies in o
continuous vein or Is merely in q pocket.
This manner of procedure will ut once
recommend itself as the wisest that
could be determined upon, and as tho
one that will give satisfaction ut the
least expense. Should the results war
rant 1t a company can readily be formed
to sink shaft and secure all necessary
machinery for unearthina the treasured
wealth. Already, we understand there
are found adjacent property holders
who are not ready to take hold of the
matter and share in the enterprise, but
whose faith Is so strong that they will
not dispose Of their property short of a
fabulous price. 1t is a most unenviable
attitude, and shows spirit which, pre-
dominating, would stihe all enterprise.
However, this faction in this instance
is so small as to DO ineffective and only
a subject for commiseration, and the
prospecting enterprise will proceed as
the faith of the public spirited class
may warrant.

The Liberator Temporarily Suspended.

notice of the physical inability Of its
editor and publisher, Jimmie Paine, to

has persisted against physical disad,
yantages which would have discour-
aged strong heart. About seven years
ago he fell while skating on the ice and
received injuries to his left limb which
have never ceased to cause him pain,
and which resulted In necrosis. -Four
wears ago he conceived the idea of
starting paper, which he executed,
and it has resulted in diverting his
mind from his physical troubles. The
paper has been from time to time en-
larged and improved, exemplifying the
enterprise of its publisher, until it is

of the last issue on Tuesday evening
and retired to his couch and from labor

shall be again greeted by the newsy

over the mantel-piece of a sitting

servant, the worlds master, and his

rest, and happiness his reward. God
is his Father, Jesus Christ his Savior,
the saints his brethren, and all that
need him his friends. Devotion is his

Sobriety his butler, Temperance his
cook, Hospitality his housekeeper,
Providence his steward, Charity his
treasurer, Piety his mistress of the
