MENTAL ATMOSPHERE.

WE know beyond a doubt that
there is a mental atmosphere sur
rounding every person which either
invites or repulses you before you
have even spoken with him, because
of thought vibrations which are as
real as those of sound and far more
unlimited in their scope and po-
tency. Virtue and vice, peace and
fear; love and hate-and all other
emotions are by an irrepealable
law translated into flesh and bone,
blood and sinew.-Rev. Alice X.
Wright, UnirersGiist, Brooklyn,
~ Y.
TIE man who would expect to
gather roasting-ears the next day
after planting his corn is no more
unreasonable than those who expect
to See returned prosperity before
the tariff bill is passed.-MGdison
Courier.
The roast corn was promised,
however, and enough people be-
lieved that by some sort of hocus
pocus trick Mckinley would fur
nish il. Six million leyel-headed
Democrats, however, refused to be-
lieve in the corn trick and voted for
William Jennings Bryan.-LndioH-

graceful form, and is perfectly at
ease before q large audience.
At banquet given to the menu

all other women that have ever
graeed American platforms or
swayed brilliant audiences. Miss
Leases present intention is to enter
q Law school, and her future career

COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Editor Of Tie Broad Ar:
ANXIOUS 10 ses what progress y
being made outside Of the city In
the education of the youth of Sal.
Lake county, I attended the fourth
annual commencement exercises
thereof at Murray, june 9Th, and
vas greatly pleased at what ] saw
and heard on that occasion.
/ enclose 9 printed programme,
and would suggest that, should you
have sufficient space yOu reproduce
it in your columns.
As you win see, the exercises
were various, and most interesting.
Not being very well l did not re-
main to the close, but was inter-
ested In such of the exercises a. /
witnessed. An interesting feature
was q song by some of the pupils of
District No. Al, at Sandy. The
success of which shows that great
pains have been taken in training
them, and how very well the pupils
carried out their part of the pro-
gramme. And ] do not undervalue
the efforts of the entire class when
/ especially commend the little tot
who led the procession.
The salutatory by q graduate of
Farmers Ward-name not given
was most excellent and well deliv-
cred.
As everybody who knows him
expected, the address by that bright
light from Draper, Hon. d. o.
Rideout, was q gem, and was de-
livered with much effect, and will
doubtless have great influence with
the pupils who heard it.
When it Is considered that in the
several school districts IN the
county outside of the city, more
than fifty pupils received diplomas,
this fact alone is sufficient to attest
the ability and the faithfulness to
duty of all, including superintend-
ents, teachers and pupils.
/ take pleasurein mentioning the
courtesy of Mr.. Il. Barnes, pro-
pEietor of the Opera House, and of
the Superintendent, Mr.. Oscar Van
Colt. In giving me a comfortable
seat, from which l could obtain 9
good view of the interior of the fine
Opera House, and OF the large, re-
spectacle and intelligent audience.

] vas surprised to see 30 large q
town a. Murray, seeing that it il
IN the midst of q mere farming
community, and so near to the city,
and did not quite understand why
it had grown to such dimensions,
until reminded that the smelters in
Its vicinity afforded the reason As
given to me by a gentleman with
whom ] conversed. This person,
speaking of the growth of the town
referred to the proposed advance Of
smelling charges and of railroad
charges, contemplated, suggested
the bad effects Of such advance upon
the town. In connection, this gen.
tleman remarked, that it might b
weIl for smelling men and railroad
officials to think twice before id.
vancing rates. 1t did not seen

under existing circumstances; and

Prospects of short crop in some of the
wheat-producing centers of the world and
the probability of a reliance upon that of
California, have advanced the price of that
staple very materially during the past few
days. Since the 10th inst. there have been
steady advances on the local call board
for wheat for future delivery, and spot
grain has shared in the good feeling to
some extent. On July 10th the best price
obtainable for December wheat was 1881,
at which price the days sales closed. On
the 18th an advance of u of a cent was paid,
followed next day by further advance of
~ cents. Today 1.30A was obtainable, a
gain of 81 cents since the 10th. Today s
sales of December amounted to 1920
tons, an increase of 700 over those of yes
terday. While the May option has not
| been so active, the price has advanced al
most as sharply. Today spot wheat brought
100 per GENITAL, while millers pay 135 and
the indications are that the upward move
ment has only just commenced.
