Exchange. Room 3. Columbian Building
Wheat.-The opening for wheat was
wild with an advance of 158c
over night, Around 75c there
was heavy realizing, but the market
took in good shape, and soon as the
heavy selling was over the July option
advanced to TIC, and closed at that
price The curb opened at 7S1ac for
July, and calls shot up to SAC for tomor-
row.
We feel confident that soc will look
cheap for July wheat next week, and
probably tomorrow see it sc higher.
Wheat is headed for dollar and we
advise purchases on all slight reactions
We desire to call attention to the fact
that at around 43 cents for July wheat
we advised buying it saying that
if bought around those prices and
mareined 2 cents would hold safe
throughout the worst and prove very
valuable. The market has promptly
indicated our judgment and those that
promptly took our advice and pur-
chased have now the handsomest
profits they ever had on any investment
in the same Tenth of time Their profits
are now over $3.50 for every 1000 bush
els purchased, and it looks as if
they will soon have about
$500 on every 1000 bushels
On an investment OF only $40 we think
this is the best investment that could be
made anywhere for the same amount OF
profits in the same length Of time.
Corn and oats firm aud higher, in sym
patty with wheat and on bad damage by
frosts.
Provisions somewhat easier. but with
firm undertone at the close.

AN ATCHIsoN MAN IN HAWAII.
1t Will be Dangerous for Him if the Queen
is Restored.

ATcHIsoN, May 22-If the Hawaiian
monarchy is restored, the deposed queen
will probably make it uncomfortable for
formerly of Atchison man, unles she is
forced into an agreement not to punish
the rebels. When John Emeluth, who
is on the advisory council of the present
Hawaiian republic, was in Atchison on a
visit some time ago, he said the queen
felt particularly bitter toward certain
members of the original provisional
government, and he was among them.
He said that if the provisional govern
ment had not stood after the revolt, the
queen would have dispatched a lot of her
opposers Although it is freely pre-
dicted by newspaper correspondent who
recently returned from Hawaii that the
new republic cannot stand, Emeluth.
when he as in Atchison about a month
ago, said he was positive that the repub-
lie would be permanent He did not
think there was any doubt about this.

CHURCH TROUBLES AT MUsCOrAH
The Methodist Minister Was Said to Be
Too Fond of Women

Too Fond of Women.
ATCHIsON, May 22.-For several weeks
the town of Muscotah has been torn up
on account of sensation which was
sprung there involving Rev. NJ. L. Ever
EFT, pastor of the Methodist church and
who also acted in that capacity at Mon
rovia. Everett is a middle aged gem
tleman and besides a wife has seven
children, one or two of whom are almost
grown. About two months ago he was
sent from Sabetha to Muscotah.
At the last named town he secured a
reputation for himself by carrying on a
vigorous warfare against the rum fiends,
which he finally succeeded in routing.
1t appears, according to the stories going
the rounds, that there was a woman who
resided at Sabetha that Mr.. Everett was
exceedingly fond Of and she was not his
wife. The Muscotah people heard of
this and it was not long before the pastor
WAS the subject of much gossip. The
members of his church finally ordered
an investigation of the charges made
against Mr.. Everett, and last week it was
decided he would have to go.
As a result of this action the church
is now divided and things are not run
ming very smoothly in Methodist circles
at Muscotah. The friends of the de-
posed preacher insist that the slanderOus
stories in regard to his conduct at Sabetha
were circulated by the rum fiends whom
he drove from that town He and his
family have removed to Baldwin, Kan
sas, but Mr. Everett has not as yet Sc
cured another position.

WASHINGTON. May Ex-senator John
NJ Palmer of Illinois called on the

silver situation in that state. The sena-

by saying that warrants were out for the
movement, but the officers having
the warrants had not been able come up
with it.
The senator says that SO far as the
Democratic convention called to meet in
June is concerned, it is a foregone con-
ciusion that free silver plank will be
adopted.

A Remarkable Woman.

The dowager Lady Stanley of Alder
ley, whose death took place not long
since, was a remarkable woman. Her
great age of 81 was no hindrance to her
extraordinary intellectual and physical
activity. She was born before the jubi
lee of George III, was presented at court
to George w, was familiar with the
widow of tho young pretender, and was
present both at the coronation and at the
jubilee of her majesty Queen Victoria.
More than half a century ago Lady Stan
ley was one of the original promoters Of
the Caeen's college and one Of the
members of its first council. She assist
ed Miss Emily Davies. to whom the
foundation OF Girton college was main
ly owing.
During her whole life she has been
working for the education Of women,
never endeavoring to monopolize the
credit, and oil this good work was ac-
complished while taking due interest
in her children, even to the second and
third generation. Lady Stanley had 10
children, 7 Of whom are now living.
Recently she regretted she was not ten
years younger, to explore some of the
newly investigated regions of central
Asia, and it is related that on one of her
last visits to the PREMIER Mr.. Glad
stone, when he endeavored to turn the
conversation from politics by abiding
to recent novel, she said: "Do not let
us talk Of novels. Leave them for your
old age as / do" A singular remark for

Blainc's Dramatic Reading In Congress OF
the Famous Correspondence.
After the morning hour ON Monday,
June 5, Mr.. Blaine rose to question Of
privilege. He began his remarks by OBJ
serving that the investigation, though
authorized In general terms, was aimed
solely and only at himself. 1.-THE famous
witness, Mulligan," he said, had select

which he thought would be peculiarly
damaging to him, Blaine, but they had
nothing to do with that investigation.
He, Blaine, obtained them under cir
cumstanees known to everybody, and
defied the house to compel him to pro-
duce them. Had Mr.. Blaine stopped
here his enemies could have made him
bite tho dust. Apparently he had allow
ed himself TO be driven into fatal Gull

Having indicated his right to the
letters he proceeded in his most dramat-

The Sacred and symbolic Palm.

From the very earliest times the palm
tree has been recognized as symbol Of
victory. Among the Greeks and the
Romans palm branches were used to
decorate the buildings and streets Of
their cities in honor Of the return of a
victorious army. This custom appears
to have been taken from the eastern
nations, but from what one in particu-
lar no one now knows.
At a very early age the Hebrews were
accustomed to carry palm branches on all
occasions Of rejoicings. This custom
having been observed on the entry Of
Christ into Jerusalem, the tree has come
to bear a special symbolism among
Christians. The primitive church used
1t to express the triumphs of the Chris
tian over death through the resurrec-
tion. AS early as the second century
A. ID. it became the custom to carve
palm branches on the tombstones Of
those who had died for the faith, and
about the same time all pictures of mar
tyrs were figures holding representations
Of palm branches in their hands. st

1t was young Mr.. Kilduff who spoke,
and he addressed Miss Mullins, at the
same time placing his arm round her
waist and attempting to deposit a kiss
upon her lips.
This was all proper enough, for the
two were engaged and had been be-
trothed for year, but the girl evaded
the salute, disengaged herself from his
embrace and stood apart.
II am not Your queen ~ she replied,
with stately if not regal dignity.

young man in surprise.
"You have no right to speak to me
like that" she protested.
II am very sorry, dearest. But don't

"You call me your queen. You have
often called me that, but am not. I
have read that when Queen Victoria ap-
pears in the drawing room it is no I'M
common thing to see her display tens Of
thousands of pounds worth of jewelry.
How much do I display Not even an

And she held out her ringless fingers
for Mr.. Kilduff's inspection.
He caught hold of the extended hand,
and this time he got his kiss, for he re-
piled:

Queen Victoria wears, but my queen
shall have diamond ring tomorrow. +"
