The large receipts OF hogs at this and

depressing factor in the market. Prices,
however, have been fairly we'll maintained

an advance in the English market ior

Very little change is to be noted in the
market for these grains during the past
week. Receipts are not excessive, while
the outward movement continues on a
liberal scale. Many conflicting reports
are being received regarding the condl-
ton OF the growing crop. From present
indications the phenomenal yield oil last
wear, OF both corn and oats. is not likely
to be duplicated, and in our opinion
gradual improvement in prices may p'
looked for within a reasonable time.

WHEAT.
The course OF the wheat market during |
the week has been decidedly erratic and
violent fluctuations have been its chiei
characteristics. The efforts OF room
traders to follow the movements oil GER
tain prominent operators who are heav-
lily interested on the long side may be
held responsible for the abnormal action
OF the market. Legitimate influences are,
however, receiving more consideration
and steadier feeling may be looked Tor.
Untavorable reports from many oil the
winter wheat states continue to prove
the chief incentive to buyers. Harvest
ing returns, 80 far received, are in the
majority OF cases very disappointing,
and that the yield will be a very moder-
ate one is now regarded as an assured
fact. Higher prices under such circum'
stances are inevitable, although any de-
cided improvement may be delayed until
the light receipts at primary points prove
conclusively that available supplies o
winter wheat will be needed for local re
} quirements,
! Clearances from seaboard points hay
increased during the week and more dls
position is manifested to replenish az
pleted reserves abroad. On the whole "
regard the outlook as favorable to bu.
ers, and where due care is exercised

4 fed that nothing will be gained by d

Enthusiastic Meeting,

A large number of Commercial Club
members attended the session of Tues
day evening. The principle question
Tor discussion was the ordinance now
before the council giving the aldermen
power to fix the terms of office. The
club resolved itself into a committee of
the whole, Judge Hutchins presiding
There were several speeches for as we'll
az against the proposition, when finally
Mr.. Buxton moved that the committee
report as follows to the club:
Resolved, that it Is the sense of this
club, that 1t is desirable that the term
OF office of mayor, comptroller and
treasurer be made two wears and that
the civil service rules be applied in the
minor Offices"
The committee then absolved them
selves and the club again went into
session when the report of the com
mlttee was unanimously adopted.
The question of appropriating city
funds to assist Frank A. Flowers deep
water way scheme through was dis
cussed at considerable length and had
many supporters, but when comptroller
Ilcknor was called upon and said, "the
city could not make the appropriation
as 1t did not have money enough to pay
It's debts" that seemed to settle the
matter and when vote was taken on
the proposition it was lost.

Danger to Doctors.

There has been some discussion in
the Boston papers OF late concerning
the danger of doctors carving the
germs of smallpox, diphtheria, scarlet
ever, etc, around from house To house
in their whiskers. The burning ques-
ton is: Ought physicians to wear
boards? 1t is limited that the agitation
was started by young physicians who
have no boards, who consider them
selves at disadvantage in the respect
of venerability ofappearance with their
more hirsute cOnfreres. However this
may be the discussion Is amusing
enough. One of the contributions,
elected by it, published in the Trans
cript, is this suggestive story: Several
years ago took the steam cars to and
from school. For week or more our
family physician took the crowded
noon train, always sitting very near me
and entering into conversation. On
questioning his sister-in-law about his
trips, she said: "Oh, he has smallpox
patient in c., and is afraid to take his
carriage for fear of communicating
Contagion, SO he takes the train"

Card of Thanks.

Clan Cameron at their regular meet
ing on Tuesday the 18th had under con-
sideration the sad fact that the body of
Norman Mcmillan found at South
Range was lying at the morgue awaiting
an unhonored grave in the Potters
field, and they at once appointed three
of their number to confer with the
Masons, of which order he was sup
posed to be member, with the view
OF obtaining possession of the body,
that the remains might be given an
hOnOrrd burial. They at once set about
soliciting help for that object from
SCotsmen and others in the city which
was responded to without verv much
effort their part and the funeral
took place on Sunday afternoon from
the Hammond avenue Presbyterian
church, Rev. Cady conducting the serv-
ices. He spoke of the fact that death
overtakcs us In many ways and this
was the saddest he had ever known.
The members of Clan Cameron wish
to thank all who gave so willingly of
their means TO enable them to carry
out the purpose of their heart and also
to Rev. Cady for his services and inter
est in the unfortunate and very painful
case.

Harrison on Civil Service Reform.

In none of his papers on This Coun-
try of Ours" has cx-President Harrison
delivered himself with such vehemencc
and emphasis as he has il. the, one in
the March Ladies Home journal.
The Presidents Duty Besides COM
mending one of Mr.. Cleveland's acts.
and censuring Ambassadors for making
political speeches, he talks of President
Ial appointments IN q most feeling and
an almost pathetic way. Upon the lat
ter theme, in giving endorsements to
Civil Service Reform, he says: In
spite of all the difficulties that beset
the question of removals and appoint
ments 1t must be conceded that much
progress in the betterment of the serv-
ice has been made. The Civil Service
Rules have removed large number of
minor officers in the department at
Washington, and in the postal and
other services, from the scramble of
politics, and have given the President,
the Cabinet officers and the Members
of Congress great relief; but it still
remains true that in the power Of
appointment to office the President
finds the most exacting, Unrelentng
and distracting of his duties In the
nature of things he begins to make
enemies from the start. and has no way
of escape-it Is fate; and to 4 sensitive
man involves much distress of mind.
His only support is in the good opinion
of those who cheerfuilv care that the
public business shall be we'll done, and
is not disturbed by the consideration
whether this man or that man Is doing
it; but lie hears very little directly
from this class. No President can
conduct successful administration
without the support of Congress, and
this matter of appointment, do what he
will, often weakens that support. 1t is
for him always sort OF compromise be-
tween his ideal and the best attanable
thing"

out in body to visit Northern Lodge

city last Monday evening. The car
was beautifully decorated with flags

brought with them the Imperial Band,
numbering sixteen pieces, which fur
nished plenty of good music for the
occasion. After patrolIing the streets

mitted to the lodge room. the meeting

Sorrow Again at South Range.

Mr.. c. II. Atkinson district timber
inspector and scaler, living at South
Range, died Wednesday Feb. oath at
the W. c. 7. L. hospital. Mr.. Atkinson
had not been sick any length of time
and the announcement of his death was
a shock to many of his friends. One
day last week he noticed what he sup
posed was boil on his nose, but upon
consulting physician it was pro-
nounced erysipelas, and the disease
spread with such rapiditv that it was
impossible to save his life. He leaves
a wife and three or four children. 1t is
likely the remains will be sent to his
Eastern home for burial.

The Life Line.

There are lines in the hand which APP
peal to the lovers of the mystical, and
there are those who assume to read the
lines and gather from their shape,
length and general situation something
about the owner Of the hand. One of
the most important Of these is the life
line, so called because it is supposed to
approximate longevity. AS it skirts
the thumb its length determines length
of life, and it is therefore an important
line, but in no sense as important as the
Duluth Short Line, which for years has
been the popular route between St.
Paul. Minneapolis, Duluth, West Supe-
rior, Saltwater, TayIor's Falls and
other important Northwestern points
The Saint Paul & Duluth has always
enjoyed the regard and confidence of
the public, because it always uses
equipment of the --latest pattern on its
fast, smooth running trains, and It's
time cards are always arranged to meet
the convenience of those at terminals.
Its route lies through one of the most
picturesque sections in the Northwest,
and its facilities are such that it always
commands the unvarying allegiance Of
its patrons. Always take the Duluth
Short Line and 90 with the crowd.
Ticket agents will always be glad to
furnish maps, circulars, folders and
general information, or they may be
obtained by writing direct to W. A.
