The result Of the republican eau
cuses in Detroit leaves no doubt, if
there ever was any, of the strength
and popularity of Mayor Pingree in the
republican ranks OF this city. He rep

no other Detroit republican has done
for years. He will 60 to the state con-
ven.ion with the magnificent certificate
of their loyalty and enthusiasm.
Whether this new mark Of his strength
in the great democratic stronghold OF
the state secures for HIM the nomina.
ton for governor or not, the proof OF
his leadership in Detroit cannot be dis
puted. It 10 fact that the republican
state convention should and probably
will seriously take into account in its
final selection for its state leader dur

Railroad building for the past six

in operation the facilities for carrying

greater dispatch and more perfect aud

FUTURE PRICES.

"As to the immediate future of
prices," SAYS Henry Clews, "fhere is
considerable uncertainty. Speculation
in stocks has been paralyzed by the
silver bill, and in grain and cotton by
the auti-optiou bill. When congress
sdjourns, which it is to be hoped will
be- soon, business interests will be
greatly relieved. The monetary situa-
ton is also somewhat threatened by
the silver agitation, lenders already
showing . firmer tendency through
fear of possibilities. The situation,
therefore, is one that calls for pru-
dence. no matter how roseate the mar
ket may seem in certain directions; and
until the horizon is cleared of these
two drawbacks, purchases on the long
side will have TO be conducted with in
creased caution. The unexpected ac-
ton of the senate on free coinage
came at moment when set OF new
and legitimate factors were beginning
to infuse . more confident tone In to
the market. The crop reports were

of an abundant harvest, and the doubts

LIVES ON RAW WHEAT.

Unhealthy to Eat Cooked Food.

PARKEassURG, w. Va, July l0.-A
tall, clericsl-looking man, who gave
the name of J. b. Rumford OF Los

which ne calls the Edenic school. He
lives ON cereals in q raw or natural
state. When asked if II was true that
his diet consisted Of raw wheat, he
said: "Well, yes; live largely upon
wheat, although ] occasionally eat
other things, but never anything that
has been cooked. When food is cooked

that if horse 10 fed at bedtime the

ing, whereas il fed in the daytime the
forces necessary to digestion are d.

not object to vegetables and fruit in a

that now at the age of 20 years he felt
young and vigorous, whereas, at the
age or 40. after living as mortaii
usually do, he felt Old.
