Wheat-The wheat market opened strong
Tuesday morning at an advance over Mon
day nights closing, but lost strength later
in the day. The situation was conflicting
cables were easier and Northwestern re-
ceipts were large, 4c6 cars against s42 last
week. On the other hand, the worlds
shipments. 5.4n.OOO bushels, are very
small. Odessa is reported closed again
and the drought in India is re-
sumed. Bradstreet's report was much
less than anticipated and caused
good deal of selling. Buying developed
around the put price, however, and New
York is said to have a lot Of orders in the
market. The Melbourne Argus says that
the surplus in Australia will only be 1,07O,-
900 bushels and this will doubtless be ex-
ported as flour during the year to the
northern colonies. The worlds wheat ship

SAYS LUTHER TAUGHT FALSELY.
Bishop-EIect O'Gormnn's Easter Ser
mon I'm baltimore.

BALTIMORE, April 5.-The Easter sermon
at the Cathedral was preached by Rev.
Thomas O'Gorman, D., D., bishop-elect OF
the diocese of Sioux Falls, S. d. Cardinal
Gibbons was present. Taking the resurrec-
ton as his theme, DR.. O'Gorman said that
criticism is powerless in the presence of the
universal social fact OF the recognition OF
the resurrection. He reviewed the early
days of Christianity and martyrdom under
the Roman pagans. This present Christian
civilization" said he, lis the most cultured
society that ever existed in the world. and it
is impregnable proof of the resurrection
of its founder. even as the great American
Republic, in all it's power, evidences its
founders life and work in that 1t presents
historical knowledge of Washington"
The bshop-elect referred to Sir Isaac New
ton, Dante, Michael Angelo and the great
Gothic cathedral architects as having been
among those who were inspired by their be-
lief in Christianity and the resurrection.
THE science of to-day" he said utterly
fails to disprove the history and resurrec-
ton OF Christ. Luther gave false teachings
from the true church, yet the followers of
both movements cling to faith in Christ a
faith that must abide. There are errors and
divisions among the disciples OF Jesus, but
in love for Him there is unity, and this
makes us hope that, sooner or later, all who
have strayed from the fold will be brought

Miss willard's First Love.
Chicago Post.


The Trbune's story Of Miss Frances Will
lard's early love affair is very interesting
as far as it goes. 1t relates that 1thirty-five
years ago, when Miss Willard was younger
and even more charming, overwhelmingly,
than at present, she was tenderly smitten
by the personableness of a young theoogi-
cal student. The fond youth was addicted
to the of tobacco, but one day, in mo-
ment of unusual grace and strength, he
threw this DEVILS concoction, which, like the
hero of the popular song. he always carried
in his old tobaccy box. out of the window,
remarkng: I'VE will see which one OF us is
master" Here the Tribune's story ends, but
the rest may be easily supplied. Miss Will
lard felt within her the elements of leader
ship. She knew that she was born to COM
mand, so she communed: "A man who can
give up the tobacco habit as easily as that
is not the man for me TO tackle" The en-
gagement was broken off. and whether the
world is the gamer or the loser by the trans
action let those decide who will. Concerning
matrimony ST. Paul says-but we beg Miss
Wizards pardon. She Is tired OF hearing
what st. Paul says, and the collect for the
day for the toilers of this paper Is. Always

river anu H0rDOr bill ZONES Up
WASHINGTON April 5.-This promises
to be exceedingly lively week in the
House. Tomorrow the House will vote on
the adoption of the conference report on
the Cuban resolutions, which was debated
on Friday and Saturday. 1t is foregone
conclusion that the report will be adopted
by an overwhelming vote, but 1t is probable
that there will be more members recorded
against it than against the passage of the
original resolutions. Immediately afterward
an effort will be made to pass the river and
harbor bill under suspension Of the rules.
The bill carries something over 100000 in
actual appropriations. but authorizes con-
tracts for almost S40.0OO,O00 additional. The
Democrats would like an opportunity to
attack the bin because of the enormous
charge 1t makes upon the treasury in the
future, and they will make all the resist
ance they are able to. Under the rules,
however, their opposition Is not likely TO

The Senate will continue the consideration
Of the postoffice appropriations bill on Mon
day, taking 1t I'D soon as practicable
after the conclusion of the routine MORN

suffice to conclude the debate on this bill.
Senator Morgan has given notice of
speech on Tuesday the Pacific railroad

sumo the greater part of the day. The ques-
ton is one to which the Senator has given
great deal of attention, and on which he
