1t was growing dark when Anita came
laggingly back into the town, and the
church bells were clamoring their invi-
tations to the weekly prayer meeting.
Anita laughed bitterly as she heard
them. Let the fools go and pray if they
woodland wake one day to find all
their cries and petitions of no more
avail to move Gods mercy than puff
of wind. How many times had she
prayed, tears of passionate earnest in her

only good of life she had feared to lose

There was sweet, dewy freshness
about the place that fell soothingly on
her fevered spirit, although she scarce
perceived it. A local ordinance, de-
signed to economize the water supply,
restricted the sprinkling Of lawns to this
part of the day, and the cool dripping of
water was everywhere promising new
life to the dusty gardens, and every
clean washed tree and shrub seemed
tremulous with joy from its refreshing
douche. Orodelphia nursed its greenery

-Four days had passed away. Four
times over again had weary old world
buttoned and unbuttoned, Weakened and
slept.
In the hope of finding a letter from
Donald. Anita had walked down to his
Office in the afternoon. There had come
but note from him, another hurried
scrawl, to say that he had joined party
which was going over the range for
few DAYS to hunt bear. For Anita there
was a grain of comfort in the reflection
that Mrs. Rogers was not likely to go
hunting bears, although, indeed, she
could believe her capable of even that.
1t was a close. hot afternoon, when the
flies stuck maddeningly to perspiring
humanity. Mr.. Carlton, who had been
enjoying his pipe and a magazine IN ms
shirt sleeves. was scrambiing into his

Business on Change was comparatively
heavy yesterday, and brokers were exceed
ingly happy. Sales of stocks reached nearly

The feature was the absorption of 400
shares of Duquesne Traction stock by Kuhn
Bros, at the uniform price of 1734. They
wanted more at the same price, but were
unable to get it.
Luster stood about where it did the day
before. Possibly it was little weaker.
There was no demand for it worth speaking
of. La Noria sold down to 26 per 800 shares;
small lots were held higher.
There was very little change in the street
railway list. Citizens Traction closed down
a fraction and Pittsburg finished with
slight gain. The steadiness OF these proper
ties shows confidence in their outcome.
Philadelphia Gas opened and closed the
same.
Switch and Signal and Airbrake developed
additional strength. In fact, all the West

UNCLE SAM ON THE BULL SIDE
The Government Crop Report Make z
Poor Showing for Wheat.


WASHINGTON, Dec. 1o.-The returns Of tho
statistical reporters of the Department OF
Agriculture show that the condition o
growing wheat is s5.3. The returns showing
condition of the coming crops of winter
grains are not generally favorable. On the
Atlantic coast some injury is reported on
early sown areas from the Hessian fly. Tha
season was not favorable for seeding in the
South on account of continued dry weather.,
and termination was slow from the same
cause. Rains in the late autumn have fms
proved the prospect. In the Western States
seeding was late, the seed bed hard and
cloddy, termination slow and growth uns
favorable until November, when a material
improvement was seen in most fields. In
some districts the Hessian fly made its ape
pearance, causing some damage. The aver.
age condition of the crop is S5.3.
The returns duly consolidated, make the
average farm values of the current crops Of
the year: Corn, AZ. &c per bushel; wheat, 35.2;
rye, ia: barley, "a; oats, 32.2; buckwheat,
$40: potatoes, 81: tobacco, cigar leaf, H.6
pounds: manufacturing and export leaf, 8
The price of corn is 2 &c per bushel moro
that the average OF ten years from $780, and
only four-tenths of a cent less that than tho
average for the decade from 1870. The
average value of the whole crop since 1879,
has been richer only in 1887 and 1890 when
the yield was only 90 bushels per acre.
The value of the wheat crop is 2.5c pes
higher than the average of ten years from
1880. and has been exceeded only once (lSSSl
since 1888. Only once since lsS3 has the price
which is L3c higher than the average Of ten
years from 1880 The prices OF all cereals
have been remarkably sustained in view Of
the abundance of production.
