Jerry simpsons Downfall

Unless later returns give better news
a man of might has slipped and fallen on
the floor of his own house. In Barber
county, that part of Kansas which the
rest of. the world envies for being the
home of Jerry Simpson, the sockless So
crates Of Medicine Lodge, the Republi-
cans are said to have made a clean
sweep. Mr.. Simpson has been warned
kindly more than once that an old Druid
of disaster and Populist seer cannot be
allowed to slide about the Washington
streets on a gilded wheel or to array
in Tyrian purple velvet short clothes,
and golf stockings rich in rainbows. legs
that should remain plain and popular.
Mr.. Simpson has remained deaf to other
voices than his own, which, to tell the
truth, are plowing the seas of sound
most Of the day and evening. Now he
has received public admonition, not to
say birching. The rainbow stockings
must be pulled off. The Tyrian purple
velvet and small clothes must dis
appear. All chains and carcanets and
multi -colored cravats and iridescent
waistcoats must be doffed forever or un-
til after the congress elections of 1898.
Jerry must cease to ride or walk in silk
attire, or his constituents will give him
his walking papers.-New York Sun.

be found that the sediment at the bottom
is fine. dark-colored sand, and not mud.
The Missouri rivers water is never mud
dy, save during the spring high water.
Col. "Bill' Switzler of Bonneville, Mo-,
declares that the general idea that Mis-
souri, means "big muddy" or muddy
water" is wrong. He Gays, and Colonel
"Bill' Switzler is an authority that it
means wooden CANOE The name, he
says belongs to the Illinois dialect of the
Algonquin Indians. The name Missu-
ris or Missouri was applied by the In
dams of the upper lake region to the
tribe Of Indians living west of the Mis-
sissippi river, because the latter used
wooden canoes instead of the birch
bark canoes that were used by the
former.
Wooden canoes had to be used on the
Missouri river because it was too tur-
bulent for the frail tkch-bark canoes,
and in this way the big river secured it's
name. But no matter whether Missouri
means muddy water" or wooden ca
noe," the fact remains that Missouri
river water is not muddy. 1t does not
flow through mud, but through fine
sand. The Mississippi river water is 100
per cent dirtier that the Missouri. but
poets have raved about the beautiful
blue Of the father of waters.-Omaha

CHICAGO MARKETS
Yesterdays Transactions on the Board
of Trade

CHICAGO. Nov. 16.-Wheat was fairly
strong at the opening, especially for De-
cember option, which showed AG% cent
advance. May was unchanged. starting at
90N and few small sales were male at
90kGl90it. but the market took q down.
ward turn, and in the next two hours the
price had declined to S94s. The northwest
ern receipts Of wheat were very heavy, and
that overshadowed everything else in the
way of fresh developments affecting prices
in the first two hours. AT the immediate
opening the severe frost shown by the
weather map to be prevailing over a large
area of the Writer wheat country caused
enough buying to raise prices trile over
the closing prices of the day before, but
that was soon forgotten under the pressure
Of wheat bought In expectation Of a fad
ing In the northwestern receipts. Local
professionals were for the most part on
the side OF the BEARS Duluth received 1O4G
carloads Of wheat, 400 Of which number
came from Minneapolis and had previous
ly been counted in the northwestern re-
ceipts and had been bought at 81 cents
premium for immediate delivery of con-
tract grade. This was overlooked how
ever. Minneapolis received only the mod
crate number of 427 cars, although the mill
lers and bakers of that city. were likewise
paying a handsome inducement On cents
over December price, for country elevator
The receipts at the two big northwestern
markets were 1873 cars. against 1876 week
ago and 1888 last year. Chicago received 17S
cars. compared with 217 Tuesday last, and
129 year ago.
The stock Of contract wheat in Chicago
increased from $4,000 bushels to 1901, 900
bushels. an addition during the week of
627, 900 bushels The clearances Of wheat
and -four from the Atlantic seabcard and
gulf ports were equal to $3.50 bushels.
The Bradstreets' figures on the change for
the week in the worlds supply made an in
crease Of 4.943000 bushels for the week, or
about 1000. 900 bushels less than the addi-
tuin expected. When these figures were
posted the market became stronger and
May advanced to 90N. but the bears were
persistent and finally wore the market out.
The lowest prices of the day were made in
the last ten minutes Of the session, May
declining to $685. 1t CLOSED at 89ta.
Corn was dull and rather weak under the
influence Of heaviness In wheat and the
clear and cold weather. the expectation be-
ing that in consequence Of the latter the

What Was Done Yesterday on Wall
Street

NEW YORK, Nov. 16.-Today was an
other remarkably dull day on the stock
exchange. The only spurts Of activity were
due to manipulative maneuvers on the
part Of the professional traders. They
were notably manifest in Consolidated Gas,
which jumped up and down the price scale
point at a time all day, but always at a
level above last nights price. The decline
extended to AZ points at one time, but
covering at the close left the stock's net
loss only fractional. The weakness of local
gas stocks Is due to fears of a failure of
plans alleged to have been In contempla-
ton for the amalgamation of the local
companies. Sugar continued to lead the
market In point of activity and It's strength
during the day helped the general strength
Of the market. 1t rose at one time points.
but q reaction due to realizing sales on
slIort turn left its net gain fractional.
Others of the Industrial stocks. notably
the Gotten stocks, Tobacco and Leather
preferred rose sharply cn traders pur-
cfsases. but for THE most part. however,
was firm I'm the face of the dullness prices
continuing above yesterdays level all day,
after q small decline just at the opening.
This decline was In sympathy with the
heaviness of American securities in the
London market. London was also a seller
In this market Of American stocks. Tho
strength Of the railroad list was mainly
ness, the grain movement having been
resumed in force and very heavy move
ment of cattle being reported by some
western roads. Manhattan was heavy all
day, nor did 1t rise above yesterdays level.
The rubber stocks were also somewhat de-
pressed. There was mo news bearing on
either Of these properties. The heavy tone
in Omaha, alone of the GrangelH, was
equally without explanation.
Northwest. the parent stock. gained o
point net, as did also Rock Island. The
market was exceedingly narrow. both in
the volume of dealing and In THE, move
ment Of prices except In a few cases prices
showing fractional net gains on the day.
The bond market was fairly active and
showed Improvement for the most part.
Total sales, $1,115.000. United States fours,
coupon, and the flves. coupon, are u lower.
