When you have a holiday
Sure as fate you'll wake up bright,
Long before it's good and light.
Used to think bout how you'd lie
Dreamin' as the hours went by.
But all day you're on the go
Tired out from a-hurryin' so.
Wisht some method could be found
Fur a-tWistin' things around;
Seems you've allus gotter do
What you're most onsuited to.

When busy day gifts round.

 Chicago, April 19.-After a very exciting opening today, with an unusual advance in it's price, wheat simmered down to its usual subdued nervousness. The final outcome was that May closed at 75c. and July 747s@ 75c., as compared with 1874 and 731a reSpec- lively on Saturday afternoon The other markets had somewhat similar experience and except in the case of provisions, no ad- vance was established for the day. The outbreak of hostilities between Turkey and Greece overshadowed all else on the market. As expected, wheat was wild and excited at the opening. the news that war had actual Sshorts and the utter disregard of caution displayed by majority of them was clear ly indicated by the prices they paid at their closed at 73a4c., started this morning in one mighty bound from 3A to 4Ac. higher. There was a difference of 1c. per pusilei i'll prices between the first transactions made simultaneously in different parts of the pit. SAdhough reports from the growing crop Were enough in themselves. to produce a strong market, it is probable that after Saturdays excited bulge a reaction would have been recorded today had it not been for the outbreak of hostiltties in Europe. excitement began to die down. Realizing during this time was enormous, Line after line of long wheat was. thrown on the mar ket and acted like oil in stormy waters. h. deed this fact probably prevented what many looked for today, namely. soc. wheat. Cudahy, Linn and Bartlett were most con- spicuous sellers during the first hour, the former supposed to be taking profits on long stuff, while the latter sold for the short account. Cudahy and Linn were credited with clearing something like $1c0,000 each as a result of the days transactions John

Tn Wall Stree.

'7 New York, April 1s.-Nothing outside the war besides Turkey and Greece had much interest in Wall street today. The traders in stockc are accustomed to look with con- fdence on foreign exchanges to guide them ip the dealings in properties likely to be affected by European affairs. The absence of this index today on account of the con- Atinued closing of the exchanges in London and Paris over the Easter holidays left the minds of the traders in some confusion, and result the movement of prices was at times very cratic without any correspond ing change in the tenor of news to justify 1t. It was evident at the opening, however,
 that this market was bearing the brunt of whatever selling was result of the war. not only by local holders. but by those in London, Paris and Berlin, where the ex- changes was also closed. The scene at ehe opening was an exciting one, and there was heavyspressure to sell throughout the whole iiet. There had been many stop orders placed before the opening in anticipation of Q slump, and these were speedily uncovered running sales of from 800 to 4,000 shares be- ing made at the opening in many stocks.
 The bond market also remained bearfsh,
