old gentleman3 He postpones the coming
of the Populsts into power solely to give
the Republicans another four or eight years
control of the country but warns them that
their management of the government is
going to result in the breaking up of the
party. Seriously speaking, Mr.. PETER
knows that the Republicans are bound to
win next veal, unless there is a very radical
shifting of opinion within the next twelve
months; he also knows that the Populist
movement is dead, speaking in national
sense His prophecy of their getting con-

entire family, and the civilizations OF

and the woods and the fields has got

WEAKNESS OF SPECTATORS.

From the Chicago Tribune.
Board of trade men are pretty hard
headed individuals who, as rule, con-
Germ themselves too much with visible
supplies and other tangible things to
think much about invisible spirits.
Most people would therefore be sur.
prised if they knew what large num-
Der of spectators patronize clairvoy-
ants, mediums, astrologers and fortune
tellers. Several prominent and sue
cessful dealers never fail, it is said, to
consult medium before going on the
board, and their almost uniform good
luck in their trades is sufficient to
justify the practice, to themselves at
least.
One medium VINO has been peering
into the future here for twenty years
at so much per peer, and the bulk Of
whose patronage, from the standpoint
of the financial returns, comes from
Spectators on the board, has amassed
q snug fortune for herself and lives in
style on fashionable street on the
West side.
The story is told by one man, one of
her regular visitors, who, on the
strength of alarming conditions in
Europe and the prospect of war, went
into a combination which made heavy
purchases of pork. They had captured
most of that commodity in sight On
the morning of the day on which the
final squeeze was to be given to the
shorts one of the leading spirits in the
enterprise called on this medium. The
mediums familiar is supposed to be the
immortal part of an Indian chief who
used to roam all over Chicago before
Chicago was here. On this occasion he
seemed to be in a good deal of trouble,
or the medium did, which was of course
the same thing. and after number of
oracular utterances, for the most part
unintelligible. she said, speaking with
the voice 1.-THE departed chief:
ugh! Meat no good, greasy; let 1t
60"
This was repeated several times, and
without calculating his remark in any
way the spirit of the red man depart
ed. The medium, who like all true
mediums was unable to remember out

could throw no light. The more the
speculator thought about it the more
he inclined to the belief that the old
chief had reference to his pork deal.
He was not at all of the opinion that
his friend seemed to express, however,
and was disposed to go on with the
deal On the way back to his Office he
met an intimate business associate who
told him that he had what he consid-
cred reliable information to the effect
that several of the other members of
the syndicate were getting alarmed
and had given instructions to their
brokers to unload at the FIRST favorable
opportunity. The speculator came to
the conclusion that the Indian knew
his business and quietly disposed of
his holdings. The other people I'M
loaded as per programme. but not un-
til pork had taken heavy drop and
not until he had got rid of his and
made a handsome profit
