With the Exit
Of the
White Horse
the RedrHeaded
Gifl. Is
Becoming Extinct

scarcely retired from a scene to which
he had contributed joy, beauty and
usefulness when suddenly 1T dawned
upon the human race in Chicago that
the red-haired girl had also disap-
peared. Who shall attempt to explain
the fascination exercised by the white
horse upon the young lady with the
golden hair? BY what occult. power
was the girl moved to keep constant
tc the horse, and the horse compelled
to remain the inseparable companion OF
the girl?
However that may be. the fifth pro-
position Of Eucnd's Elements of Plane
Geometry-which, by the way, has to
DO with an animal and a thoroughfare
is not more conclusively proved than
the facts connected with the stimuli
taneous appearance and disappearance
Of the white horse and the red-haired
girl. And, these things being taken for
granted, when we shall have fully real
lied the significance Of the passing OF
the red-haired girl we are brought face
to face with a condition which leaves
the world far less brilliant than when
Chicago was young, when the bicycle
was unknown, and when the white
horse trudged along beside the lady of
the golden crown.
The policeman who keeps watch and
ward at one of the entrances to Lin
coin park, commenced his criticism Of
the bicycle by saying it was a blamed
nuisance. His objections to the wheel
were mainly based upon ethical or re-
lfgfOus grounds. But re Waxed wroth-
and there were some consolidated sun
beams in his own lurid mustache-
when he began to comprehend the rela-
ton between the appearance Of the
wheel" and the passing Of the golden
haired girl.
"It is quite true" he said, as he
walked up and down under the shade
of the lamp post, them fine, honest
blue-eyed, red-headed girls is all gone,
an we're crowded with the Spanish
gypsieSt But, tell me, what's become
of the dark blondes as we used to call
the young women whose color was high
so to say?"
Don't you remember that when
there used to be thousands Of horses
on the Shore drive there were more
white or gray horses than those Of any
other color?"
Sure enough"
'And don't you remember that
wherever there was a white horse
there was certain to be girl with red
hair?"
True for you, my friend
WELL the conclusion is clear enough
from the premises: When the bicycle

Not Very Influential in Either
Direction

CHICAGO Jan. 22-All the grain and pro-
vision markets were very dull today. Wheat
was benefited to the extent of about &c by
the firm cables and the prevailing storm.
Corn and oats closed at substantially yester-
days final figures and provisions advanced
213G5c In wheat the sudden drop of the
temperature to close upon zero, with the
knowledge that a large portion of the WIN
ter wheat country was bare of snow last
night, caused the May option to open firm
at a shade above yesterdays closing prices.
The crowd was for the most part bearish,
and there were enough offerings to start
with to cause a slight depression. First
trades were at 797s@80c for May, against yes
teTday's closing prince of 79AW79s, but 1914
Q79B ruled almost Immediately after. The
rank and file soon discovered that one or
two Of the leading operators who were short
were inclined more to cover their lines than
to enlarge them. That turned the market
strong again, and put the price above S0c
Trade was very dull, but nevertheless the
price got to 8014c about an hour from the
opening. The usual statistical news was not
particularly influential either way The week s
shipments Of wheat and flour from boCn
coasts amounted to 2,917 900 blu, against 2 y48,-
OO0 bU the week before. Exports from the At
Ianuc ports tor tWenty-fouf hours were only
254,CG0 bu in wheat and flour together; that
was regarded as one OF the bear-sh points OF
the day. Chicago received ii cars, against
106 year ago. Minneapolis reported Il cars
and Duluth 105 cars, a total OF 49, against
294 last week, and 435 on the correspond
in doay OF the year before. Argentina, which
shipped 10 wheat last week, shipped 80 600
blu this week. Liverpool was rather non

higher for futures. There was some reaIz-
ing near the close, but the effect resulted in
only q slight loss, the market closing steady
at 8018c for May.
Corn was quiet and featurelcss. seaboard
clearances were again heavy, amounting to
100000 Blu. May opened 1sc lower at 24c,
and kept within 1Bc range all day. closing
steady at 24Q241sc. In oats a limited scalp
Ing business was transacted. May opened

WASHINGTON, Jan. 23-Liliuoka.
lani, the Hawaiian ex-queen, arrived
here rather Unexpectedly this morning
Her intention to visit Washington at
this time had not been anticipated, and
her entry was as simple as any ones
could be. Accompanied by Miss Kia
Nahaolelena and Joseph Helelulie, Of
Honolulu, and j. N. Palmer, Of Bos-
ton, the queen was driven to the Hotel
Shoreham. Rather fatigued by her
trip, she retired and refused herself
to all callers. Concerning her visit,
Mr.. Palmer said:
1.-THE queen is travelling In her ca
pacity as a private lady, and 1 have no
doubt that she will follow the same
rule here that she did in Boston in de-
clining any official attentions"
How long does she expect to stay
In Washington %
II have not the slightest idea. The
queen enjoys travel immensely and is
visiting Washington precisely as any
private person might do
will she be given an audience with
the president while she is here?"
AS to that really cannot say She
has not said a word on the subject,
and do not even know that she would
desire an audience"
us she on her way back to Homo
lulu?"
II cannot say anything on that point,
either. If she has any plans at ali
for the future, she has not taken me
into her confidence. I do not know
how long she will be in Washington,
where she will go when she leaves or
whether / shall go with her"

generally above yesterdays final sales, but
weakness soon developed on drive at the

to the high priced industrials. The more
extreme declines were in Tobacco, 21A Man
