CHICAGO ,AHANGE.

CHICAGO. Nov. S.-The traders in wheat were apparently feeling secure in their position to- day. the news imparting incfeased confidence in values. The pressure to sell was no.iceably great at different times, but it was stubbornly met. and in the end, although the inside quo . tations of the day were recorded. a clear gain Df Ac was shown. December wheat opened at G3s4d 537Sc, advanced 10 54Ac, declined to 37Bc, where it clobeds IA higher than yester- day. Cash wheat was steady, but Ac per bushel lower, business beiDg 6 only moderate in that branch of trade.
 Corn WAS decidudIy weak during today's session. The speculation in corn seems to have disappeared, for the present at least, and this fact. with the weakness in the cash market and the outlook for better weather, has curbed the enthusiasm of the bulls. May corn opened at 50l2c, sold at 50asG 50%c, de- clined 10 4975c, and closed at 497s O 50c l20 a8c under yesterday. Cash corn was weak and A0 12c per busheI lower.
 Oats-Wcakness was the ruling tone in oats, and moderately lower prices resulted. May closed SS0lac under yesterday. Cash oats averaged Ac per bushei lower. with only a light business.
 provsions-The feeling of products yester- day was followed today by unanimous desire to buy. Prominent packers were taking most an easy opening. The close was strong, with January pork 22l9c higher than yesterday, January larI 1O@12l2c higher and January ribs 12l9c higher.

Horscs Can Count.

A Russian doctor has been expert
menting to find how far some domestic
animals can count. The intelligence Of
the horse, as shown in mathematics,
seems to surpass that Of the cat or the
dog.
The doctor found a horse which was
able to count the mile posts along the
way. 1t had been trained by its master
to stop for feed whenever they had COW
cred 25 verstA One day they tried the
horse over road where three false mile
posts had been put in between the real
ones. and, sure enough, the horse, de-
ceived by this trick, stopped for his oats
at the end of 20 versts instead of going
the usual 20.
The same horse was accustomed to
being fed every day at the stroke of
noon. The doctor observed that when
ever the clock struck the horse would
stop and prick up his ears as if count
ing. If he heard 10 strokes, he would
trot off contentedly to be fed, but if it
were fewer than IL he would resignedly
go on working. The experiment was
made of striking IL strokes at the wrong
time, whereupon the horse started for
his oats in spite of the fact that he had
been fed only an hour before. st. Louis

A "coNDITIoNINe" HOUSE.

An Institutien Which Looks Out For a
Square Deal In Weights and Measures.
The state department has received
from the American consul at Bradford,
England, an account Of the condition
ing" house owned and operated by the
municipality, which is the only one in
England. A conditioning house is an
establishment in which the true weight,
length and condition of articles of trade
and commerce are scientifically deter
mined. These are matters regarding
which there has always existed differ
ence Of opinion between British export
ers and American importers.
Only recently one of the largest export
ing houses in Bradford was compelled to
allow an American customer per cent
discount because Of the shrinkage in a
large invoice of goods, though it was al
legged by the exporter that it entirely OBJ
liberated the profit of the transaction.
All this may be prevented by the import
or of either raw material partially manu-
featured or wholly finished goods de-
manding that the product be accompa-
MED by certificate from legally au-
thenticated conditioning house.
The Bradford house being worked IN
der parliamentary act, all certificates
granted are legal evidence in court OF
law and are accepted as absolutely cor.
rect as to weight, condition and designa-
ton of goods on the date they passed
through the house. Washington Post.

When in Munich some years ago d.
recting the Wagner operas, woman Of
society asked the late Hans Won Bulow
one evening to be allowed to attend the
rehearsal Of the orchestra on the follow
ing day. Bulow replied that it would
give him great pleasure to have her pres
emit later in the week, when the orches-
ira had played oftener However, on the
following day Bulow caught sight of
her in the theater as he took his baton
in hand He stopped the music, held a

members Of the orchestra, and then as
cended to his place again. He fiourished
his baton, and one instrument began to
sound. He continued to beat the air,
and the instrument continued to play
only three different notes. For five min
utes this was kept up, the other must
clans remaining silent. The poor lady
became half crazy in the course Of time,
and in disgust at Bulow and Wagner
left the room. The rehearsal was then
continued. San Francisco Argonaut.

sacrilarious ThieYes.

The recent sacrilegious thefts in Paris,
including that at Notre Dame, have been
traced to the sect known as Luciferians,
worshipers of the devil. Their head
quarters are near Freiburg, Switzerland,
but large branch live in Paris. They
have liturgy which is parody of the
mass. The consecrated elements are Ell
Their stolen from churches or received in
communion by female adherents. A serv-
ice of proclamation then takes place,
which is known as black mass. Mgr.
Faya, bishop of Grenoble, has issued a
circular to the clergy ordering special
vigilance, as the Luciferians abstract
the hosts from village CHURCHES in lonely
districts without stealing the ciboriums
and monstrances in which the sacrament
is contained. At the ministry of public
worship the subject has been discussed
and instructions have been given to the
project Of police to increase his surveil-
lance of the churches of Paris.-Paris

A Monster RattIesnaks KiIled-News
Notes.
SANTA ANA, May ia very peculiar
circumstance occurred here few weeks
ago, when Joe Wilks was bringing his
fine 3-year-old colt from the pasture,
leading it behind the carriage. The
colt pulled backward and the halter
broke, throwing the colt over backwards.
She struck the back of her head on the
ground which is very hard in the road.
and ever since then the colt has been as
b lind as bat. Otherwise it was not
injured in the least. She drives well.
but can't see a bit. 1t is supposed a
clot of blood is interfering with the
optical nerve in some way. She is a
fine, black well-bred animal.
