SAVED BY HIS LITTLE BOY.
A Child's Answer Melts the Heart
of Judge,

A two acknowledgements child saved
his father from going to the penitentiary
the other day, says the Albany Argus.
The father had been arrested on COM
plant of his wife for abuse and neglect.
He was addicted to drink, and his fam
lily had been made to suffer all the mis-
cries which that habit entails. On being
brought before the police magistra te
that officer was inclined to give him the
punishment which the law provides.
The wife began to relent and beg the
magistrate to be lenient for this time.
Seated on chair near by was the little
boy, apparently engrossed in admiring
the cuts in a newspaper. which he was
holding upside down. The magistrate,
after mentally resolving to give the man
another chance, turned to the boy and
said: "What do you say, my lad; shall l
send your father to the penltentiary?"
The little fellow lifted his big blue eyes
from the paper, gaZed at the group in
an inquiring way. and then, in de-
liberate manner and with all the dignity
of Judge on the bench, he said: al
wouldn't do dat" The father was re-
leased at once.

CHICAGO, Feb. 15.-The wheat market was
active again today, with varying success for
the bulls and the bears. The opening was
weak, because the weather ali over the coun-
try, even up in Dakota, was of the finest.
May started at 77I2c, or lac off from last
night Then there was free selling by small
holders, who took wheat on the bulge late
yesterday. and heavy hammering Of the mar
ket by Partridge. Under all this pressure the
prices only yielded TO 77A@678sc. Some
sensational bull news via Paris, stating that
Berlin markets were up on damage by frost
to German winter wheat. On this, and q
turn in buying by the trade, headed by Nc
Cormick & Co., Poole-Sherman and Baker,
the price went flying up 10 7SAc for
May. There were some other items
of bull news. Export clearances from
four Atlantic ports for the week
were 100 o bushels of wheat and 10000
packages of flour. MINNEAPOLIS sent dis
patches claiming q decrease in stocks in
country elevators in the Northwest for the
month of 100000 bushels. The out-in-
spection of wheat here for the week has
been fair. Liverpool closed firm. Estimates
on the visible supply were from $4,000 to
10000 bushels decrease. 1t was soon evil
dent tina: only the small shorts were run in
on the bulge to IS cents. and the pounding
proc ess was renewed. Partridge worked his
utmost all day to break the market. Schwartz
sold 100000, supposed 10 be for him, on a
second decline 1t was l o'clock when the
price of May was finally worked down to the
lowest figure of the morning, 77b@77ssc.
Wheat was weak at the close and sold at the
bottom prices tor the day. Receipts
were IL cars winter wheat, 10 cars

acted stubborn early with only a very slight
decline from opening prices. Later in the
day the spirit of the trade changed. Receiv-
ing houses and elevator men turned sellers

the large receipts, the fine weather and the
immensely of the crop held by farmers seems
to cause the tr ade 10 think there is no bottom

confined to very rich people, yet it is
certain that they do a great deal more
than their share of it. The experience
of the officials also bears out
the general impression that it is almost
as natural for woman to smuggle as
it is for her to breathe. 1t is hard for
her to realize that bringing in bonnetS

ute to her wardrobe whenever the
chance is presented to do so without
paying duty is not both her right and
her duty. Consequently the women in
