TODAY'S MARKET REPORT.
Furnished by the Associated Press to
the State Journal

Chicago, Nov. 6.-The range of wheat in
the Chicago market during the past week
has been wide, especially so for the De-
cember option, in which there was a diff
ference of SIC between the high and low
points. The spread between May and
December, which was Sc a week ago. was
at one time during the week less than a
cent but at the close last night had wild
ened again to 212d25sc. There has been
a decided improvement in the prospects
for the coming seasons winter wheat
crop during the past week. The drouth
east of the Mississippi. which was re-
narkaDle for Its severity, was thoroughly
broken Monday and Tuesday by soaking
rains. This was equally true of Argen-
vailed The tendency of the market as
consequence has been throughout the
entire week toward lower prices. Not
only was what was regarded a the prin-
cipal sustaining factor of the market the
drought, removed, but there was a very
perceptible increase in stocks. and this
too in spite of the heavy European de-
mand for our wheat. The increase of
came as a sumner to the bulls and caus-
ed liquidation by many of the smaller
holders and local professionals. The per-
Sistent strength of the Paris market and
purchases of wheat here for shipment to
France attra attention and helped the
general situation somewhat. During the
latter part of the week there were nanv
indications that the December option was
being manipulated and the belief was ex-
pressed that a repetition of the recent
July deal would soon eventuate. The sky
rocket tactics of the market on Thursday
had a tendency to scare away outside
support and the market as a consequence
suffered yesterday: The close of the
week finds December selling at point
33sc lower than a week ago. Nav suffer-
ed a decline of about &c.

Pray let my dear Lady Hamilton have my
hair and all other things belonging TO me-
When the news of Nelson's death reached
England Parliament voted a muniicent
gift TO his family. 1t was all secured by
his brother. the Rev. Edward Nelson. who
managed to keep Lady Hamilton in the
background until the vote was taken. Her
application for relief was sternly refused,
and she and her daughter were actually
left ~penniless. They subsisted for a short
while in England on loans from friends
who had known her in the days of her
glory at Naples; then, to escape the i'm
portunities of duns, she fed to Boulogne,
where she lived till her death in obscure
poverty. A story is told of her latter days
which is truly pitiful.
Her Boulogne laidlady occasionally
turned an honest penny by exhibiting to
English travellers the lady who had taken
a place in history by the side of the great
Lord Nelson. One English woman, prompt
ed by kindly motives, asked to see Lady
Hamilton. The landlady inquired whether
her ledger you'd be willing to receive her.
The poor, broken-down exile bristled up
and asked who the visitor was. If she is

A personal friend of the late Henry Drum
mond, commenting on the deceased pro-
fessor's attractions, gave this as one of his
chief charms:
He was an ideal ~confessor, No story of
failure daunted or surprised him. For
every one he had a message of hope"
No wonder that men of all sorts came to
him with their secret sins and doubts and
sorrows; by a subtle sympathy he drew
them to him. made it easy for them to
speak, and when they turned to go they
were heartened by the joy of a lightened
burden by a new. strange sense of COM
fort and courage, a new confidence in them
selves and in their fellows and a new faith
in the gracious Willingness and power of
the Redeemer.
A quality such as this is of inestimable
value. 1t stands in contrast with the Gym
ical or Indifferent spirit which does not con-
Germ itself with others burdens and dis
courages rather than encourages the de-
spondent and the heavy laden. Better Oft
times than silver or gold or endoWments of
houses and lands is a generous, apprecia-
tive, compassionate, helpful word whereby
a soul is lifted from the slough of despond
and sent on it's way with "a message of
hope r~esounding in all the sky like a song
of angelic hosts.

One year ago tonight, love,
One little year ago,
Our hearts were beating light, love,
Our spirits were aglow;
Your eyes to mine replying,
Were like the warm stars lying
On tropic seas below
One year ago tonight, love,
One little year ago.
One year ago tonight, love,
Not any care was ours:
Time halted in his flight, love,
To sleep among the flowers;
Your hand in mine reposing
Was like d dove a-dozing,
At dusk, amid the bowers
One year ago tonight, love,
Not any care was ours.
One year ago tonight, love,
We walked in PARADISE;
And all the stars in sight, love,
Were shining in your eyes;
But time and fate together
Have brought the wintry weather,
And shut the smiling skies
zone year ago tonight, love,
We walked in paradise.)

tion-the seifishness OF men. 1t is only
necessary to consider the age at which
'h'H ho" "s'iii iiiit ~ s'' ia Il ]
great change has been silently effected.
Twenty-Five years & a man who was
single at 80 was looked upon rs an old
bachelor. Now a man who marries at
80 is thought to be quite young to take
such a step. Undoubtedly the manner of
living for bachelors has become. during |
;he last quarter OF a century. much more
pleasant. The increase in The humber OF
clubs. the erection of apartment houses.
and the establishment of excellent res
taurants at reasonable rates have all
tended to this end.
But these, whatever they be now were
originally not causes OF bachelorhood.
but the result. Young and middle-aged
men shut out from marrying went to
work to make their life as comfortable,
as possible; their successors find bache-!
Tor existence made SO agreeable for theml
that they rarely seek the married hap-I
piness that their predecessors sought and|
failed to obtain. The position Of a single '
man in any of our large cities, with an
income of between $4,000 and $4,000 a
year. is now extremely agreeable.
Five hundred dollars will clothe him
well. $500 will pay for his food and
apartments, and he can spend the rest as
he pleases. II he is refined he can go in
10 any society, dine out almost every
evening. and dance till daylight if he 50
desires. For all this hospitality he is
not expected to make any return: a few
flowers. a box OF candy or bonbons and
Xmas card are the utmost OF his ac-
acknowledgements His life is an agree
able enc, inasmuch as he enjoys all the
luxuries OF wealth, and he makes up his
mind not to fall in love. He is told that
one of the young ladies whom ne occa-
sionlly meets spends at least twice as
much as he does in dress. He knows
that she thinks her present surroundings
almost indispensable, and il he feels love
creeping into his heart he makes a men
ial calculation as TO the possibilities Of
his resources and-then goes hunting,
yachting or travelling till he feels cured
and return is safe.
As the extravagances of metropolitan
life lave spread. and are extending to
the smaller cities. so in like manner and
natural sequence have followed the i'm
proved comforts for bachelor existence.
What the outcome. is to be is. as We
observed at tpe outset, n Of the most
important social problems OF the day.
