TELEGRAPHlC MARKETS.


an opening around zoe, and 1t looked weak
at that. Slowly ii began to recover, work.
ing it's way with difficulty TO roc, where
the rally was stubbornly contested. OPP
position was at length withdrawn, and
the advance became more rapid From
soc to S0Ac, the latter at the close, the
rise was as sharp and accompanied by as
much excitement as any that has recently
taken place. The Inspiration for the pres
ent advance came from Liverpool, quo
tations at that place. at the close, being
Sd higher than yesterday, our decline be-
ing ignored. December wheat opened
from 79l4c to 7S7sc. sold between 7S14c and
S0%QS07sc. closing at S0Ae-l2c higher
than yesterday. Cash wheat was irreg-
ular. closing &c higher.
At the immediate opening and for a few
moments thereafter. corn was steady, out
of respect to the firmness of wheat pre-
valling at that time. The natural ten
dency of prices, however, was to decline
and 1t was not surprising that recesslons
took place. The break In wheat about
the end of the first hour, accelerated the
downward motion of corn prices In the
final moments an Improvement, In sympa-
thy with wheat, took place. May corn
opened at 29c, sold between 2S9sc and 2914c,
closing at 29BQ29Ac-1sqAc higher than
yesterday. Cash corn was steady to NC
lower.
Oats were affected by wheat and corn,
the early action being with a steady feel
ing but later prices declined. At the
close the feeling showed Improvement and
prices recovered. May oats closed Bd4c
higher than yesterday. Cash oats were
steady to &c per bushel lower
Provisions--A measure of strength per-
vaded the provision market early, but in
the face of declining grain values, there
was not much assurance in the tone. The
hog market was frmer, that affording
the only assistance derived from outside
sources. The subsequent speculative
strength of grain extended to product,
and prices rallied. At the close January
pork was 1Od1215c higher; January lard.
5Q719c higher, and January ribs, sc higher.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

MEN IN TRAPS.
Hunters Who Have Suffered I'm Them
Instead of the Beasts.
From the New York Sun.


From the New York Sun.
Traps set by hunters have often proved
as dangerous to man as the spring gun
over in Brooklyn turned out to be the
other day to the man who set it to pro-
tect his grapes from thieves Bob Mich
ael, one of the best hunters and most
thorough of woodsmen in Northern Herkl-
mer county, New Y DIRK, walked against
string one night and was MORALLY wound
ed with buckshot. An old French Cana
dian trapper above the Saranac lake re-
gion was setting a seventeen-pound steel
bear trap near an, old burning one day
and had both arms caught between the
jaws, and there his body remained for
weeks, being found at last when the mice
and ants had gnawed his bones.
In Africa a curious trap is used for ele-
plants 1t consists merely of long blade
of steel in a four-foot log of wood, sus.
pended from a tree by triggers. When
the elephant stirs the string the contrlv-
ance drops, burying the steels between
the victims shoulder blades.
Tigers are captured in India by a bow
and arrow trap. A chunk of bait is hung
on a stick below which the arrow is aim
ed. When the tiger pulls the bait the
bowstring is loosened and the arrow Is
supposed to find its way into the ami
mails heart.
Baited traps are not usually dangerous
to human life. 1t is when strings half
concealed by bushes and grass are hung
across the runways that there is danger
of men walking into them and having
bullets, arrows. or drop sticks shot into
them
One of the odd things one meets in
forests where bears, panthers, and wild
cats are found is a log house, a sort of
lean-to camp with an S-inch spruce stick
lying over the entrance and jutting off
into the woods fifty or sixty feet. A hewn
plank inside the Enclosure is arranged SO
as to look like fine resting place for a
foot. Beyond the plank is a chunk Of
foul-smelling meat, burnt honey comb, or
other bait suitable for the intended game.
Men VINO use dogs in hunting detest such
contrivances for the animal that steps on
the plank has its back broken by the
spruce stick. Such a deadfal Is hard to
build, but II is among the surest Of traps
for large game that is not shy OF inclos-
ure. 1t is remembered of a lost and starv-
ing Indian that he tried TO reach the bait
Of a deadfall and was crushed by the logs
though not killed instantly. Other men
have had fingers crushed in mink and mar
ten deadfalls.
Men set snares for big game, using wire
rope to encircle the beasts necks when
they, venture to touch the bait. 1t is a
curious fact that such men sometimes get
leg in their own trap and are yanked into
the air by the stout sapling tree used as
a spring pole. After a man has dangled
with his head downward trying to- climb
the spring pole feet first for while, and
finally gets down safely, he exercises extra
care with his machines thereafter.

Y. NJ. G. AIS WEEK OF PRAYER.
Rev. NJ. j. Epting's Address on "The
worlds Example,"

Rev. NJ. j. Epting's Address on "The
worlds Example,"
II has been found necessary to postpone
the ladies' night. which was to have been
held tonight at the Young Mems Chris
ton Association, on account of the week
of PRAYER services which are being held in
the gymnasium. Announcement will be
made when the next game of ball is to be
played.
Tonight Rev. ]. NJ. Lovett will speak on
"The Workers Reward" The address
last night by Rev. NJ. ]. Epting was close
" listened to- The subject was '"The
Workers Example" Almost every young
man has his ideal, the speaker said, but
every IDEAL with one exception, has its
faults. There is only one ideal which is
altogether worthy of being followed, and
that is Christ. Rev. Mr.. Epting showed
the example Christ set in fidelity to duty.
Christ sets us a grand example,, he
said "of prayer; note the hours he spent
inprayer to the Father" He also showed
how Luther spent much time in prayer.
The men who have done successful work
for the Lord have been praying Christians.
