"The complications arising from the

instrumental in the defeat of Sherman,

II was guest Of the governors family

at the dinner table the mail was deliv-
cred by the secretary. Among mine
was one from my husband, containing
the following message: FELL Governor
Foster that he is coming to Chicago to
nominate the next president of the
United States and that l can tell him
who it will be, General Garfield is the
man.
"'Oh, no"emphatically replied the gov

AFTER a few moments the governor re-

TONS OF CARP.


Wenzel Keller, who resides between
Good Intent and Eden, has pond cover
ing between ten and fifteen acres in
which he placed two German carp three
years ago
Last week Mr.. Keller decided to drain
the pond for the purpose of learning to
what extent the fish had increased. The
water was seven feet deep at the dam
and it took two days to run it out through
two foot pipe.
Great was Mr.. Keller's surprise when
he found that the pond contained two
tons of German carp. There had orig
inaily been other varieties OF fish in the
pond, but with the exception of two cat
fish, eight turtles and few crayash the
carp had cleaned them out.
The small fish were thrown into an
other little pond where they will be left
until the large pond fIls up again, when
ar. Keller proposes to restock with
them. After eating a few of the strong,
oily carp, however, he may come to his
sense and stock his pond with bass.

A FLOATING CANNERY.
The Schooner Oracle T, Returns Loaded
With Turtle Soup and Pompano.

The Schooner Oracle T, Returns Loaded
With Turtle Soup and Pompano.
New YORK. Oct. 2S-Loaded up to
her deck with cans OF green turtle soup,
pompauo and guava jelly, the little two
masted 1O9 ton American schooner
Oracle 7. anchored in the upper bay last
night, after a cruise of six months in
West India waters
A curious feature of this very curious
cargo is that it was all manufactured on
board the schooner, and therefors is not
supposed to be subject to duty. Therein
lies the secret of the original expedition.
1t was planned by Benjamin Wo God and
his associates. They expect to undersell
the imp porter.
When the Oracle T. left New York
April 10 last she was fitted up as float
ing cannery. A chef was taken along
to overlook operations and the rest of the
party consisted of six expert Gamers
and the regulor crew.
An eight horse power boiler was put
on board, and then three copper cauld-
rons of twenty five gallons each. Maohin-
lists set the boilers up a little forward of
amidships, and the pipes were run from
this boiler to big circular process ket-
tie.
The big kettle rested on the lower
deck and it projected half its length
through hole in the deck above where
the boiler was placed
After all these preparations were made
three truck loads of empty cans were
put aboard and the little vessel started.
She has been cruising along the coast
of Costa Rica, and her crew for months
have boen engaged in capturing
green turtles and converting
them into soup and canning ii. The
meats. after being boiled down
in the three copper cauldrons,
were also canned. and then low
cred into the big process kettle,
and subjected to a high boiling under
steam pressure to keep them. The chef
looked after this and also superintended
the manufacture of gauva jelIies.

force and if anything the damaging re-
ports from the southwest were found in
more abundance than at any time since
the drouth began to be talked about and
exercised an influence over prices. The
war scare had gone glimmering over
Sunday and hostilities for the time being
are held in obeyance SO that bulls had
but one support and that the drouth.
There was actually feeling of strength
on the curb before the start but
prices gradually sold of. There were
no buying orders of consequence from
any source in fact the feature on the
slump that occurred was the liquidation
of long December wheat by several COM
mission houses. The visible supply

set the crowd guessing and when Stats

that the addition to be made to stocks

over four million bushels, but when an
