their new pastor, Rev. Wilson, and
his family. Elder Bracken called the
meeting to order and announced a
short program for the evening. The
exercises consisted Of a few songs,

eial time was enjoyed. The musicians
were l. II. Rogers. @. w Mckee, G..

Morton, Oscar Strain and Gus Web

quartette of singers, while the seven
are members Of the Bottle Band. Our
readers may not understand what
we mean by the Bottle Band. so we
VIII explain. The boys each take two
bottles except the one who plays bass
who uses three. These bottles vary
in size gradually from the largest to
the smallest. BY putting in a certain
quantity of water and blowing into
them they give out a certain sound.
In this way pretty good music may
/ be furnished by a number of perform

Brother McNay of the Dispatch
tries hard to make it appear that our
little Jokes on him are insults to the
old soldiers of real merit. His tactics
will not work. The HERALD has the
most profound respect for the true
soldiers but we don't think so highly
of a hundred days man who never saw
any service worth mentioning, who
yet puffs and blows and brags about
the hardships he endured, and by
tricks and unbIushing affrontery
crowds himself into positions and
prominence over old veterans who did
see hard service. It is our high re-
gard for the meritOriOus soldier that
disgusts us at seeing a chap who new
er saw a battle, continually crOWding
/ in before the old veterans Now we
were in a three years Regiment our
self but like the Dispatch editor, was
never in a battle and we are too mod
est and have too high opinion of old
| veterans who did see hard service, to
push Ourself into position and prom
inence that justly belongs to men who
did do hard soldering. Be a little
more modest Mack, and we ''camp
soldiers will have fewer jokes told al
our expense.

d. L. Smith of this county while

before any money is expended there
ought to be an investigation Of his
plan, which IS to run a pipe from a
point near P. j. Clark's four miles
north of town to Phillipsburg. There
is an inexhaustible supply of water
up there near the surface. 1t would
have a fall of about 100 feet which
would fill large standpipe and keep
it full all the time. On this plan
there would be little or no expense
after the plant was paid for. We
hope Mr.. Smiths suggestions Will re
ceIve attention on the part Of our citi-

Chicago Grain and Produce.

CHICAGO H., April 1.-THE wheat mar
ket was active; a large business was done
and the market brOadened and there Was
no general trading for any individual Oper-
atOr to control prices. Fluctuations COW
cred a wide range and advances and de-
clineS followed in rapid succession with
the range considerably higher than yester-
day. 4 prominent local operator was re
ported as being a persistent buyer most OF
the day; at the same time there was very
general realizing on the advance. The
opening was 1$4W2c higher than closing
figures Yesterday, and May sold off %@3sc
under free offerings, rallied l1S@l4c, then
declined &c, again rallied sharply 1c, ruled
irregular and closed 15@%c higher for
May, 234c higher for June and 2Lc higher
for July than closing figures on change
Yesterday From the opening to the close
the market was in a constant state OF eX-
element.
The sudden and sharp turn in the mar
ket was due wholly Ia the government re-
port, which was made public yesterday
afternoon, estimating the average cOndi-
ton of winter wheat ouer the entire area
at 81. against "a the same date last year.
On this basis, and taking into cOnsidera-
tion the increased acreage, the crop would
indicate a yield of about 81 100000 bush
els less than last year.
4 good general trade was reported in
corn. prices fluctuating within a 15@%c
range. The feeling was on the whole firm
err due almost entirely to the sharp adj
vance in wheat. The market opened fairly
active and firm, and on good local demand
