The sad news of the death of Mrs.
Clarence Shurte and her two children
reached Condor Tuesday morning. 1t
is ppoIted that lamp exploded qnite
late in the evening after the family had
retired for the night and MIR. Shurte
ran for the small hose to quench the
fire. Mrs. Shnrte's first thought was Of
their two small children, and, putting
qnilt over her head to protect her face
from the heat. she rushed into the bed
room where the children were sleeping
and did not come out again, and her
husband called 10 her but received no
answer BY this time the FIRE company
was on hand and, on learning that Mrs.
Shnrte and the two children were inside,

Mrs. Shnrte lying on the floor dead she
had become blinded by the smoke and
could not find her way out of the house.
The firemen took Mrs. Shurte and the
two children outside and it was found
that the children were also dead. There
was no blaze in the room where they
we're found, they he'd satfocated form
the smoke which had filed the room.

started right from the sendoff The heavy bull
Clique held of seemed pleased to see the mar
ket going down. They hnd sold their no dings on
Wednesday, and were prepared TO see a break so
that they might buy back their wheat at lower
figures.
Closing Liverpool cables showed advance of
11ad. This seemed TO have effe upon The
bears, who were in for a break. They were sue
cessful 10 high degree The news was favorable
to higher prices but the bear sentiment that a
reaction was due WAS so strong that nothing could
stop the toboggan.
Around 711ac for September there was good
buying by brokers who identified with the bull
clique. The volume of business to-day was very
heavy. Wheat is now in much stronger hands
Many weak holders were shaken out to-day.
Receipts of wheat to-day at primary pon were
about l0G. 900 bushels less than on the same day
year ago. Reports from the Northwes give
spring wheat crop conditions rapidly growing
Minneapolis reported good sales OF flour to-day.
Yesterdays offerings of wheat abroad met with
fair responses this morning. New ork and Baltf-
more had many orders buy that were within
the reach OF limits al the close to-day. II will not
be surprising If to-days bull news does not affect
prices tomorrow.

days: those underneath it, if any, the amount of
rainfall of melted snow in inches and hundredths,
during the past twelve hours. lsobars, solid

therms, or dotted lines, equal temperature. The
word high means high harometrc pressure and
is usually accompanied by fair weather: '1ow''
refers to low pressure, and is usually preceded
and accompaned by cloudy weather and rains,
"Lows" usually first appear on the Washington
coast. When he pressure is high in the interior

but when the 'lOw'- Is inclosed with isobars OF
