IN THE EVENING.


The night has come with all her silver train,
The moonlight sleeps the sen,
The hour is come that can rest again
And dream Of thee.
The air is still, the western sky is gold,
And far on lawn and lea
The shadows bring the happy thought of old
And dreams of thee.
The sweetest hour Of summer day is ending:
The song Of bird and bee
To the still time their influence is lending,
And sing of thee.
The rest serene on earth and heaven bringeth
No rest to me;
No song to me the lonely night bird sngeth,
Weary for thee.
Thy shadow haunts the balny summer even,
BY land and sea:
Between me and the happy moonlit heaven
Rise thoughts Of thee.
stand beneath the stars, whose quiet shining
But brings to me
The thought Of olden times, the weary pining
For thee, for thee
The lime trees breath comes waited from ths
The same old tree
Where, in the happy years gone by forever,
stood with thee
o Godl to see the calm, familiar faces
OF sky and sea;
To see oil things unchanged in the old places,
But only thee.
To feel the longing win, the yearning weary,
Thy face to see;
To feel earth's brightest scenes grow pale and
dreary
For want Of thee;
And know that while the stars shine on in heaven
No sun shall bring to me
Thy presence. Only as it came this even
In dreams of thee

WHEAT SPECTATORS WELD.
Prices ON New Work Exchange
Advance Four Cents.

NEW YORK, Aug. 19.-An advance of
four cents bushel was made in wheat
to-day. The trading WAS wild and ex-
cited, and the wheat ring was full of
rumors of damage to the crops both here
and abroad. The bulls were confident
of their position. and now predict S1.50
a bushel for this crop. Foreign houses
covered shorts heavily and contributed
largely to the advances. Local houses
are all smitten with the bull fever, and
those who were bearish turned to the
bull side and Joined in the buying. The
market opened at an advance of three
Fights of cent, and moved two cents
more in the first few minutes. A reac-
ton of one cent followed, but was soon
over, and then the advance was re-
sumed. Prices went up with rush.
and closed s719@5s4 cents above yester-
days closing figures, and after the close
of the exchange business was continued
on the curb, where further advance
of half cent resulted. The prices for
all the active options are now 25 cents
higher than they were year ago.

sMadam," said the eminent surgeon,
81 am happy to say we have discovered
at last the cause of your husbands con.
dition. A small portion of the skull
was fractured by the injury that de-
prived him of consciousness a year or
more ago, and splinter has been press
ing upon the braiu. i have located the
fracture; and, in few minutes, with
the help of my assistants, the splinter
will be removed. You must not be sur
prised, madam" he continued, "at any,
thing he may say when he returns TO
consciousness. 1t has been many a long
month since the injury happened to
him. but you will remember that to him
there has been no lapse of time what
ever. If he was interrupted in the
course of any remark he was making at
the time of the accident he will finish
that remark as soon as the pressure Is
removed from his BRAIN"
The surgeon resumed his place at the
bedside of the unconscious patient, and
the operation proceeded. 1t was COM
plete success. The moment the splinter
was removed from the MANS brain a
natural look came into his eyes, and his
anxious friends in the room adjoining
heard him say in slow, hesitating
monotone:
hen and half lay an egg and
half in day and half, how many eggs
will six hens lay III seven days?"

Produce Exchange.

Butter is without change, though it may be
said that fresh stock is in good demand.
Poultry is steady, with a fair demand, espe-
cially for chickens. Eggs are firm and in
good demand. Apples unchanged. Oranges
and lemons are steady and very firm. The
blueberry market is in about the usual con-
dition at this season. Good, dry, clean stock
is i'll good demand at quotations. but it is
very hard to sell most of the berries coming
in, as they are soft and dirty.

on call tight, ranging from 10 to 25 per
cent: last loan 25, closed offered at 25
bid. Prime mercantile paper, 51397.
Sterling exchange was quiet and weak
at 81 50 for siXty-day bills, and S4.S7
for demand. There was no material
change in the stock market to-day, but
the bears remained on top, and slow
but steady melting away of quotations
throughout the greater portion of the
day resulted in some material declines
as the outcome of the days operations.
The continued stringency in money,
notwithstanding the efforts of the sec
rotary to mitigate its severity, is still
the great factor in the downward tend
ency of prices, and the fear of
strikes, which is persistenly harped
upon by the bears, gives efficient aid.
Silver continues to be the feature of tie
trading, and to-day, after touching $1.2l,
a drop of &c followed. The bears to-
day made a speciality of the strikes,
and in the downward movement the
VanderbltS naturally took the lead, al
though their final losses are not more
than the average of the active list. The
rise in silver has carried Mexican Cen
trail up, and to-day's reaction was fol-
lowed by that stock. Lead trust was
strong. The downward movement
made steady progress until toward 2 p.
M. when there was a fractional re-
action. The close was dull and weak at
something better than the lowest prices,

The others were confined to

son, Canada Southern, st. Paul and

were very dull, the total transactions
reaching only S455.000. and while there
was no feature to the dealings, few
issues scored material declines from
their last recorded sales. There could,
however. scarcely be said to be any
real tone to the market. Government
bonds have been dull and steady. State
bonds have been entirely neglected.

CHICAGO, Aug. 19-Wheat scored an
advance of &C to-day. This was pretty
good climbing for market that was de-
pressed nearly &c yesterday on realizing
sales. The market opened with no
great amount of bull news af1oat, but
with the trade bullish. First prices
were about &c up from last night.
There was good cash and speculative
demand but no adequate offerings, ana
the advance set in at once. There was
a report early that there was touch OF
frost at Fort Buford. butnothing serious
at any other point. Still, even TINS lit
tie mention OF frost had very harden
ing effect OH prices in all grain pits.
Later in the day the Northwestern dis
patches were burdened with talk OF frost
at many places i'll Dakota and adjoining
territory. just whether the frost was
going to ruin the wheat in the shock or
the stack, or on the way to market, was
not stated. but traders went wild and
bought wheat on the frost talk. Still
another cause for the great strength
here was found in the fact that the fol-
lowers of Leopold Bloom did not initiate
yesterday when he sold out, but kept on
taking wheat and forcing prices higher.
Later in the day Hutchinson had Parker
and others in the pits buying wheat
heavily. Minneapolis was up less than
half as much as Chicago, while st. Louis
and New York did not respond freely
at all. Liverpool cables were steady.
London firm, tending up; would with
weather bad. President Baker had
cables reporting weather i'll England
broken and rainy. and sales at &c
better than indicated by the public
cables. Export clearances were nothing
at New York, ZOO wheat from Balti-
more, and $4,000 packages of flour from
the three Atlantic ports. Beerbohm
gave the increase in wheat on ocean
passage for the week at 1,064, 900 bush
els. The range of prices here up to l
o'clock was as follows: September
opened &c higher at s1.O25s, and sold
up to s1.O5. December started &c up at
s1.o55s, and rose to s1.OS19. May. $1.09B,
and advanced to S1.121a. Wheat went
still higher the last half hour. when
September touched S1.O515. December
$1.O9sl. May S113. Closing prices:
August, s1.O5; September. sl.651a; De-
cember, s1.O915; May, sl.131a. Charters,
10000 bushels. The corn market was
inclined to go lower at the opening, but
became strong when the heavy advance
in wheat was observed, and closed 11sc
higher. Oats were also strong in SYM
pathy with wheat, and closed 178c
higher. Provisions were stronger on
the small receipts of hogs and in SYM
pathywith the advancing corn market.
Pork closed 2711S, lard 1919 and ribs 1Oc
