RAPID Rise in Wheat.

CHICAGO, April 1O.-All the markets
on the board of trade were strong today,
the chief interest centering IN wheat.
Rapid declines in wheat have been of no
unusual occurrence during the past I'VE
years, but an advance of % cents in one
day was such a radical departure from
the usual order of things that even the
bulls were astonished. The bad condi-
ton of the crop as shown by the govern
ment report was the cause of the advance.
When the report was made public there
was a general rush to buy and the market
advanced rapidly and almost without re-
action, closing strong at outside prices.
Some of the large short sellers who have
heretofore increased their lines on tenn
porary bulges, were among the active
BUYERS today.

Rural Scene in India.

For the last 100 miles much of the
country was pretty. The mango and
other orchards are abundant and every
plain had its many scattered trees. Bar
ley was added as a growth, and was well
headed and green. Fences, where there
were any, were Of cactus and prickly
pear. The spider webs over them well
clouded with dust looked like great Cos
samer wells spread v the spiky hedges.
Rows of aloes or century plants lined the
road. Now and then vision would pene-
trate as far as the eye could reach, through
openings in the trees, and the prospect
was that of n perfectly fiat plain, relieved
only by trees n villages. One odd
thing is frequently seen-sman round cir
Giles or mud well topped by cactus, three
to five feet high, and say four to six in
diameter. l have since found these to be
projections for young trees. They pro-
tect against intrusion and against hot sun
rays.-Carter Harrison's Letter.

Now Method of Making Barrels.

Barrels are now being made of hard
and soft wood, each alternate stave being
of the soft variety and slightly thicker
than the hard wood stave. The edges of
the slaves are cut square, and when placed
together to form the barrel the outsides
are even, and there Is a V shaped crack
between each stave from top to bottom.
In this arrangement the operation of driv-
ing the hoops forces the edges of the hard
slaves into the soft ones until the cracks
are closed, and the extra thickness of the
latter causes the inner edges to lap over
those of the hard WOO slaves, thus max
ing the joint doubly secure.-Chicago

Remarkable Showing for mormondom.

h great bulk of the people of Utah
are agriculturists. Their possessions are
In lands IL herds. The statistics show
that 80 per cent. of Mormon families own
their own homes. There is no other com
munity on earth which will make a like
showing. There is not an a~lmshouse, or
the necessity for one, in any of the ex-
clusivcly Mormon settlements. With the
exception of the mines, every other in
dustry in Utah is kept alive by Mormon
labor and Mormon patronage. The Nor
mons supply the most reliable non-strik-
ing class of laborers in the whole inter-
mountain region.
The agricultural and pastoral products
of Utah for 1887, according to the esti-
mates furnished by the governor of the
territory, were sufficient to produce n total
of more than $4,000, 0OO. -Delegate John

ROMANCE FROM THE SPANISH.

Verdant fields bloom fresh and sweet
Where the waves Of Tonnes flow;
For she comes with tripping feet,
Culling flowers which round her grow.
On the fertile. .meads around,
- And the forests cool green gloom,
Where her footsteps touch the ground,
May each bud break forth in bloomI
Lilies white and Glove pinks sweet
Now in brightest colors blow;
For she comes with tripping feet,
CUlling flowers which round her grow.
Dewy pearls the rosy dawn
Casts down from its portals height,
And upon the verdant lawn
Crystal drops are cleaning bright.
While the sun with fiery heat "
Like a ruby gem doth glow;
For she comes with tripping feet,
Culling flowers which round her grow.
Now a gentle perfumed breeze
Ger the waving heritage plays;
While betwixt the leafy trees
Nightingales intone soft lays,
The bright nascent morn to greet,
With sweet voices twittering low;
For she comes Wit tripping feet,
Culling flowers which round her grow.
Translated by Baroness Swift,

a young New Yorker need not be very
old to remember when the reputable res
taurants of the city bearing Italian names
and serving an Italian table d'hote might
have been counted upon the fingers of
one hand. French cooking was then the
proper thing, and to express IL positive
fondness for Italian cooking was regarded
as eccentric or TO be as one among many.
But gradually fair Italy's cuisine became
an acquired taste-or a pretended one,
which meant the same to the proprietor's
pocket-until now there are enough Ital-
ian restaurants in New York to supply
half the population of Florence.-New
York Cor. Chicago Herald.

The statement OF assets and liabilities
of james France, which has been filed at
Rawlins by the assignees, can scarcely
prove a source of much consolation to the
depositors. The total assets according to
this document are 1910, 403. IS and the
liabilities $l4l. O23. 81. On its face this
is a very fair showing, but many of the
reported assets are practically worthless
in character and all of them are rated
higher than their actual value j%ustiics.

RESULTS TALK.

1t is pretty much the same as saying
that two and two are four as to remark
that the only way to do a thing is to dot.
And yet In the minds OF many people
there seems to be an unacknowledged but
definite distinction made between these
two simple propositions.
There is much that should and ought to
be done in the way of advancing Chey-
enne'S material prosperity during the
coming summer. The past year has been
marked by a supineness which is simply
astounding in the light OF the energy and
far-sightcdness that have always been dis
played heretofore.
In the face of many formidable obsta
cles Cheyenne has accomplished wonder.
full things in the past. During the pres.
ent season it is essential that a very great
deal of work should be done aud that sew.
eral important results be accomplished.
Why it is not apparent to everybody that
the best way to do a thing is to do it is
difficult to conceive, and still a dilly-dally-
llH lOliNl StCllS ~ bC III OluCl vi ilN
day.
Every exchange we pick up tells pre-
cisely the sane story. Would this OF that
enterprise pay? Hundreds say no, and a
lew say yes. To get the enterprise started
is difficult 10 accomplish, but the few set
to work earnestly and energetically. In a
few months what had been deemed the
impossible has become the actual. After
al but very few things are impossible.
Twenty years ago nobody dreamed that
Cheyenne would ever reach its present
stage OF substantial growth. Look at
the Omaha or Denver of to day and con
trast the same cities OF ten or even five
years ago. The West is the region
of grand possibilities and achievements on
OF every side are s%pringing up with
amazing rapidity. The board shanty OF
today is the colonaded hotel of tomorrow.
Progress and growth arc so bewildoringly
rapid that they almost seem the result OF
magic aud yet what ordinary human
agencies are at the bottom of it all. If
faith can move mountains it can build
cities and the future Of any town, east or
west, is absolutely assured when its PEG
pie feel and manifesto robust faith in it.
Given faith, and energy. perseverance
and prosperity will follow as a matter Of
course.
For the past year we have been given
too much to the diplomatic way Of doing
things. What we need now is less Skin
mishing aud more bulls eye practice.
We need regeneration all along the line.
There are several things hat we require
in our BUSINESS, so to speak. Let us cast
aside ceremony and fOrmality aud get
them. In the words Of Mr.. Shakespeare
If it were well done, then it were well it
were done quickly"
Results are what the people crave now,
and the sooner this craving is satisfied the
better will everybody be satisfied.

Said a State street physician: ''The in

change your Cuticura Remedies performed on
me. About the first of April last l noticed
some red pimples like coming out all over my
body, but thought nothing of 1t until some
time later ON, when IT began to look like spots
of mortar spotted on, and which came off in
layers, accompanied with itching. l would
scratch every night until l was raw, then the
next night, the scales being formed mean
while, were scratched OIL again. In vain did
| consult all the doctors in the country, but
without aid. After giving up all hopes of re-
covery, l happened to see an Advertisement in
the newspaper about your Cuticnra Remedies,
and purchased them from my druggist, and
obtained almost immediate relief. began to
notice that the scaly eruptions gradually
dropped of and disappeared one by one, and
have been fully cured: | had the disease thir-
teen months before / began taking the Cuti-
cuIa Remedies, and in four or five weeks was
entirely cured. My disease was eczema and
psoriasis. 1 recommended the Cuticura Rem
edies TO all of my vicinity and | know of n
great many who have taken them, and thank
me for the knowledge OF them, especially
mothers who have babes with scaly eruptions
on their heads and bodies. l cannot express
In words the thanks to you for what the Cuti-
cura Remedies have been to me. My body
was covered with scales, and | was an awful
spectacle to behold. Now my skin is us clear
