the absence OF her husband. Mrs. Lentenfelser
prepared her husbands dinner. and after placing
1t on the kitchen table she WAS visited by tho
family physician. DR.. H. P. Bender. He told
her that she was looking better than she Ind
looked In q long time. Mrs. Lentenfelser seemed
overjoyed at tho words, and sho shook the doc

When DR.. Bender left the house Lentenfelser
sat down to dinner. Mrs. Ientenfelser went into
q front room, took d razor from q bureau. and

NOTES or THE MARK ETS.

Cuthbert & Co. say: Wheat contin-
ued very feverish and irregular yester-
day, with sharp and violent fluctua-
lions, covering q range of three cents
per bushel. The foreign advices were
much more favorable than had been
expected, especially the cables from
Liverpool which reported an advance
there of 2%d. The rise was said to be
due to bad crop points from Russia,
light offerings from that point, and
manipulation.
In the afternoon the buying power
subsidized, and efforts to realize found
the market weakened by the elimina-
ton of the short interest, and prices re-
acted. The selling pressure increased
as business progressed. and on the last
half hour 1t became active and general,
and caused a slump, which wiped out
all the early advance and caused prices
to decline u to / per cent. below Tues
day nights closing quotations. The
markets closed very ragged and uncer-
tain. Exporters here took twenty loads
of wheat and five loads of corn.
The stock market developed increased
strength yesterday in sympathy with
continued Improvement in London and
Continental security markets, which
was undoubtedly based on the general
belief that the war will be confined to
Greece and Turkey and will be of short
duration. The tone at the close was
firm, with indications of still further
Improvement.

Will Not occur.

In speaking of the movement OF i'm
migrants from the Northern and West
ern States Southwark tho Denver
(Col) Republican says:
"The country at large may well
hope that the movement will result in
placing new element in the South
which in lime may affect both social
and political conditions In that part of
the Union The race problem is q
vexatious one and it may yet give rise
10 trouble Of q very serious character.
A fortunate solution would be promo
ted by strengthening the white popula'
ton OF the Southern States and pGrtic-
ulsrly of those that contain very
large percentage of blacks. 1t would
be especially beneficial If this migra-
ton TO the South should be Rocompa-
uied by corresponding movement OF
blacks to the North. The wider the
distribution of the black population,
the less menaCing will be the race
problem. But unfortunately there lie
not likely to be much of a movement
of the blacks toward the North, except
toward few cities."
Ia any shifting that may take place
in the population OF the country, it
cannot be counted upon that the ne
gro will seek any colder climate than
that be now finds in the South, and
therefore it 10 almost certain that he
will not move out of our section to
make room for any newcomers of the
Caucasian persuasion. There is, how
ever, room enough here for all the
Northern and Western folks who
want TO come this way, aud they will
find waste spots sufficient not only to
give millions Of them sustsnance,
but, if they are thrifty, industrious
and good managers, to make fortunes
