Learn to say no! and it will be OF

Latin.-Spurgeon.
Faith Is the sacrifice of the under.
standing to God; repentance the sac.

The fault of others is easily per-
ceived, but that of oneself is difficult
to perceive. A man winnows his neigh.
boris faults like chaff. but his own
faults he hides, as the cheat hides the
false die from the gambler.-Buddha
1t Is a wise providence that we can
not see the future. We can see
through one pane of glass easily, but
through ten placed together we cannot
see, yet each is transparent. BY liv-

and all is clear, although we cannot see
through all the purposes of God con-
corning us.-Anon.

Of the civil war he has been well known
to the people of this country, first be-
cause of his brilliancy as a war cor
respondent, and afterward as an able
director of public opinion on political
questions. Mr.. McCullagh was born in
Dublin in 1913. He came to the United
States when only IL years old and at
once became an apprentice in weekly
paper published in New York city. In
1853 he went to st. Louis, where he
served as a compositor, and later as a
reporter on the Democrat. From there
he went in few months to the Cincin-
natl Commercial, for which he soon
went to Washington. and afterward be-

letters, signed Mack" made him IA
nous. He crossed the Mississippi river
with Grant, and the silent soldier and
the brilliant correspondent struck up a
close friendship, which lasted till the
generals death. McCullagh was also
with Sherman's army on it's march
through Georgia. After the war Mr..
McCullagh returned to Washington for
time, but between 1868 and 1870 was
managing editor Of the Cincinnati En-
quirer In the latter year he bought an
interest in the old Chicago Republican,
now the Inter-Ocean, which was burned
out during the great fire. Returning
then to st. Louis Mr.. McCullagh be-
came editor of the Democrat, but, when
the managers of that paper disagreed
as to policy, he founded and edited the
Globe. In 1873 those papers were COM
bined as the Globe-Democrat Of which
Mr.. McCullagh has since been the
editor.

was feverish. with decided lack of the
snap that had characterized the previous
days operations. Realizations were per-
sistent ana London was an appreclah!e
factor, selling for both accounts. The atti-
tude of the foreign dealers is governed by
the possible political crisis in the Levant,
by apprehension of increasing firmness in
the London money market and by the de,
pressed mercantile conditions and radical
railroad rate cutting in this country. The
lower quotations cabled for Americans
were also partly based on the unfavorable
character of some of the current traffic
returns. The initial declines were frac-
tional and after brief interval the market
rallied all along the line. The dealings,
however. were mainly professional. The
speculation worked toward a lower level
generally in the late session under the in
fluence of realizing orders by the announce
ment of further gold import orders amount

FROST In NORTHWEST

All Grain Eirmer in sympathy, but
Weakness in Provisions
Caused Decline.

CHICAGO, Sept 3.-Firm cables and
frosts in the Northwest were the sustain
ing strength of wheat to-day. They were
influential in advancing that market to
point 1c above yesterdays close. Corn and
oats participated in the firm feeling and
closed 1sc higher each. Provisions, on the
contrary, declined and closed .05ll .10c lower.
Traders in wheat thought they saw at the
opening reasons for higher prices and
few bought a little, paying from Ac to sc
over yesterdays closing price for it, the
figures for December varying from 5S14c to
5S12c. Reasons for the opening strength
were manifold firm cables in the face of
the decline here yesterday being perhaps
the principal one. This was supplemented
by comparatively light Northwest receipts
and by frost in the Northwest, where it
was said a good deal of wheat in the Red
river valley was still uncut. More frost
predicted for tonight also and the
price of December climbed slowly but
steadily upward, bringing $3.50 about II
o'clock. Minneapolis and Duluth receipts
