THE COST OF A KISS.
N warning to Aged and ImpuIsive
Collectors OF Rent.

Chicago Tribune.
Mrs. Goodall was a young and pretty
woman who lived near Marion in the neigh
boring state of Indiana. Two years ago she
mad for her landlord Mr.. Winslow, who was
not young and pretty, but who was 20 and a
quaker, and therefore should have known
how to behave himself.
But one day in 1894, when he went to
collect his rent. he endeavored to collect a
KISS from his tenant. She objected, for there
was no mention of such ayments In the
tease, and during years, Of democratic panic
one cannot give even kisses for nothing.
But. beyond all else, the landlord was 70
and the tenant was less than half his age.
So she made a great row, not only then.
but thereafter. She threatened to have him
arrested, but he paid her $3.50 and that
canned her anger for a time. But her re-
sentiment got the upper hand and she brought
suit for assault and battery, but the case
was decided against her.
Then the venerable Quaker. disrerardful
OF the peaceful doctrines of his sect. had his
tenant arrested for blackmail. That suit
was dismissed for want of evidence. Then
she retorted with a suit for false prosecution
and has won it, the jury giving her $3.50
Probably this will not be the end of the
litigation, which has been going ON for two
years, and which has occupied much of the
time of the courts of three counties. But
mus Lar lHe cOst OF tnat one stolen KISS
foots up in excess Of $4,000. The court costs
alone amount to 1000. What the lawyers
have had is not known.
This is what happens when an aged
Quaker, being moved and instigated by the
devil. seeks to take a kiss to which he had
no right. 1t is a warning to all landlords.
1t is true that this kiss was not as serious
in its consequences as the one Francesca's
lover gave her, for that cost human life and
sent two souls to hades. But in these hard
times 1000 and more is a good deal to
spend on account of one kiss.

COMMERCIAL And FINANCIAL
Wheat Was Completely Under the Control
of the Bears.
CORN AND OATS WERE NEGLECTED
Feeling Developed WAS u Little Ner-
yous and Several Prominent
Operators Were Active
sellers.

CHICAGO, March 7.-Wheat today was
completely under the control of the bears
and they succeeded in hammering prices
down from hc to 9sc. There was hardly
any sustaining influence and the bear SEN
tlment was helped materially by the deve.-
opments in the situation. Corn and oats
we're neglected and made but little change.
Provisions showed irregular declines.
A drop Of Id in wheat futures at Liver
pool and 1,1S4.00 bu. shipped from Argentine
last week continued yesterdays weakness In
wheat here when trading commenced. May,
which closed yesterday at 63%c, opened this
morning at from 65hc to 65hc. The feeling
developed was a little nervous and several
prominent operators were active sellers. 1t
sold about II o'clock at Csc and a few ives
scld for Lice less. Clearances of wheat and
flour from both coasts for the week were
only 2,407 900 bu. against z, 206,000 bu. on the
week before and 1922. 600 blu. on the CORE
spending week of the previous year. That
el sora ae,psd f the bears Sessnr,saIln'srt lf ba and T Srom the the
Atlantic seaboard were found to be very
light, and comprised only 11,7ss bu. of wheat
the increased weakness which caused the
selling that resulted in the break to 65c was
started. Another fact which demoraliZed
the friends of wheat was the Corn Trade
had decreased only SOC, 900 blu, during Febru-
airy, against $1,000, 900 bu. decrease during
January. This seems to show that any hope
for improvement here or abroad based on
scarcity in Europe is hardly warranted. The
result was that many longs who have been
holding on lost courage and threw over their
burdens. 1t was this thing more than the
putting of short lines that gave the market
it's black eye. On the extreme decline there
was some covering by shorts, which caused
some reaction, but at no time was there
much strength developed, and May closed
weak at 65bc bid, after having sold to from
641sc to 65c.
Corn was influenced by the weakness
In wheat, but trading was so extremely
light that little change In prices was noted,
May opened a shade easier at BOISE and
fuctuated with a sc range, closing easy at
soc bid.
Oats showed no more activity than corn,
but was rather more firm, receiving fair
| country support. May opened unchanged at
20Mc, sold to BIC and closed at the opening
price.
In provisions but little trading was done
and that for the most part at a slight de-
cline. The opening was rather firm on the
improved live stock prices, but weakness
of the grain markets soon counteracted
this and at the close pork had declined nc
and lard and ribs 2Rc each.
Estimates for Mondays: Wheat, so cars;
corn, $50 cars; oats, 2O cars; hogs, 10000
head.
The leading futures ranged as follows.

LENTEN

Kate NJ. Cleary. in Chicago Tribune.
Dim and low the lights were burning,
And her parents, who had been
Brought up In most strict obedience,
Had retired from the scene.
"Ethelinda Albertina."
Spoke the youth, with fear opprest,
Wherefore art thou sad and silent?
Dweils here sorrow IN thy breast?"
Dropping low her golden head,
Narrow Is the path and thorny
Conscience points for us to tread.
"'Tis the holy Lenten season,
And we must ourselves deny
Many sweet and precious Pleasures
But think that we can better
Make surrender brave IL we
Deprivation jointly suffer,
Vivian Victor, don't you see?" ~
Vivian Victor pulled his mustache,
H. Vowed Wnnid that da,b eyeTy S werd she said
Had it entered in his head.
First prepare yourself" she mumured.
For a blow that | must wreak.
You must come to see me only
During Lent five nights a week!
Opera creams, nor cen marshmallows
May you bring till Lent Is gone;
For with church drops" here she falterea
81 shall strive to worry on.
Not an orchid may you give me,
Not a purpling jacqueminot.
On;y now and then some lilies,
Pure and pallid as the snow.
"As for concerts. drives, and operas
Dearest, tempt me not, | pray!
Well. lest you too cruel deem me,
Well except the matinee!"
SCARED her spirit in exultance
OF her own sublime restraint;
She would wear her Easter bonnet
Like the halo of a saint!
Tried she to console her lover,
Who had rumpled up his hair.
And between his sobs was moaning,
Daring, this Is hard to bear!"
But when that same Vivian Victor
Got outside the house did he
Wave his cap and turn a pin-wheel,
Stand upon his head in glee.
"Musha!, growled the laws grim guardian.
Crazy you, or dhrunk, / fear"
mo, my Celtic friend, but only
Blazing glad that Lent Is here!'

HOGS-The receipts Of hogs were the largest
of the week, there being 4,2S6 in the yards, as
against 1887 yesterday and 1884 on Saturday of
last week.
for a Saturday, especially so, considering the
liberal receipts. The trade opened at about
steady prices and was fairly active. The buyers
all appeared TO have liberal orders and the Offer
ings changed hands rapidly. The market closed
early and strong at yesterdays prices, with
everything sold. The hogs sold at 50. 1903, IS.
with $3.50 the popular price, the same as yester-
day.
The hog market during the past week has been
favorable to the selling interests. Values have
averaged considerably higher than during the
previous week. AT the opening of the week
the range of prices was only SO, 70I3. rs. but on
Tuesday there wan an advance OF 10c and again
on Wednesday, when the high point of the week
was reached, the bulk of the hogs selling at
