MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. 15.-The local wheat

O laggard, sometimes weak, at others strong,

SHOWER OF WORMS.
East ST. Louis Visited by n Rare
Phenomenon.

East St. Louis was visited by a shower Of
wire worms during the rain of yesterday
morning, says the st. Louis Republican. The
wire-worms were of a small size, about 2h
to inches in length and very thin. Their
heads were covered with a whitish substance.
They died few hours after the rain stopped.
Several Of them were caught and placed
in alcohol to preserve them.
Charles Merker, a druggist at Bader's drug
store was one of the first TO discover the
peculiar worm. He had placed a shallow YES
sci in the rain to gauge the amount of rain
fall. When he looked at the vessel for the
it full of small wriggling objects. The OBJ
jects were just about the thickness of horse
hairs, which they resembled to a consider
abe degree. Merker called William Span
nagle, a fellow-druggist, and they examined
the worms through a miscroscope and dis
covered them to be wire-worms. It seems
that the worms fell in other portions of the
city also. People mistook them for pieces of
thread fiber. The people who saw them
were completely mystifed. They cou not ac-
count for their presence on the ground.
The wire-worm is known to live in pools
and shallow ponds. 1t is supposed that these
ponds dried up in the extreme dry spell just
passed and that the worms were picked up
by the high winds that prevailed Sunday and
were kept in the air and clouds until they
were rained down upon the heads Of East st.
DOuisanS yesterday.
Not one of the worms could be found
several hours after the rain ceased. All Of
them had found small holes into which they
crawled out of sight.

A Fable for Critics.

''What are you doing here?'' asked the St.
Bernard of his neighbor at the bench show.
Have 1 not got as good a right to be here
as you have?" returned the Dachshund.
Not on your life said the St. Bernard.
You're a freak. and your proper place is
in a museum, along with the educated pig
and the two-headed mule What short legs
you have, and what a big body! Nature
built you from the top downward and ran out
of material before she got through. Look at
me and then go chase yourself''
I've got more good points than you have, -
ventured the other.
Rats" growled the st. Bernard, and the
terrier across the way pricked up his ears and
became interested
1t came to pass however, that they tied a
blue ribbon to the short-legged dog and the
st. Bernard wasn't in it.
Moral-It isn't the outside of a watch that
keeps the time.-Detroit Free Press.

MINNEAPOLIS MARKET.

MINNEAPOLIS, Nov. 15.-An easier feeling
has gained footing in the butter market.
Prices on all grades, except packing stock, are
without change from Saturday but there is
less snap connected with trading, owing main
ly to the fact that receipts are increasing.
The call for creamery extras is of fair pro-
portions, with sales generally made at 22c for
round lots and at 1ac advance in a small
way. Firsts and seconds in creameries are
moving moderately we'll. Dairy extras are in
light receipt and moderately firm. Firsts and
seconds are cleaning up satisfactorily. Ladies
are in fair request. Fresh, sweet packing
stock suitable for ladling Is PC lower. Stale
or sour stock Is quiet. Under freer offerings
eggs declined &c. Quite number Of cases
were sold on change at 15c. The principal
call is from jobbers. Storage eggs and eggs
which have been packed in salt are in rather
poor request. Live hogs are 12c lower. Spring
chickens are in good demand at &c, and tur-
keys, ducks and geese cleaning up salts
factorily at quotations. Dressed stock is NOV
ing fairly well. All varieties, with the ex-
ception of hens and springs, are without
price change. Veal is easy. Mutton and lamb
are in light supply and moving slowly at
prices quoted. Dressed hogs are frming up
somewhat as a result of cooler weather.

NEW YORK DRY GOODS.
NEW YORK, Nov. 15.-The dry goods mar
ked opened very firm with light trading this
morning, as was the case last week There
were sensational reports of decline in prints
and in the Eastern cotton goods market, but
this proved unfounded. The improvement in
the market for wooden goods has been very
slow indeed. In cotton goods the situation is
no more hopeful than it has been for the
last two or three weeks The buyers in the
market cut very small figure and mail or
ders continue very small The report that
the print cloths have gone to "a cents is
unsubstantiated. though bids are made at
that figure without results. Prints and ging-
hams show no change in any detail. sales
being still light, even at decreased prices.
SEED MARKETS.
