1t became evident that most Of the heavy
bull traders were convinced that a reac-
ton was due and that the ruling prices
justified proft-taking. There was also
the selling OF wheat by the class of spec

lines after Jar. !. Bull news was plenti-
full later in the session, but I'm the mean

general. professional short sellers adding
not a little to the weakness the market
developed by pounding 1t vigorously.
Before noon a very material decline had
taken place. May reached 10&c shortly
after noon. Weakness that developed in
corn was given a good deal of attention
by wheat traders and affected prices more
or less. Expectations in regard to the
visible decrease were realized. the figures

This steadied the market. Near the close
May rallied to 70Sd70Ac an closed at
that price.
Corn was active and weak. Gables were
weak and lower and receipts were large.
The feature was the closing out of a large
line Of long corn, showing good profits,
which caused a sharp break In prices.
May closed 7sa1c lower.
The market for oats reflected corn In
every particular. There was heavy liqui-
dalton and the market was weak from
the start. May lost sane.
Provisions until late in the day showed
a good deal of firmness. The market
finally broke I'm sympathy with wheat

was recovered. At the close May pork
was about 1Oc lower, lard &c lower and

A NIGHT OF EXCITEMENT

AT the meeting OF the board Of edu-
cation last night a faint, yet quite per-
ceptible echo of an old chord of dissen-
self and the usual serene and some
times jovial session was not the order.
Nay. nay, there were some things
which. when added together and sub
tracted from the whole and the result
divided into five parts. made a night
of excitement and deftly concealed
anger. 1t all arose over the appoint
principal of the Adams school. Miss
Downey is the newly elected superin-
tendent Of county schools.
The matter a previously been re-
1erred to the teachers committee, which
IL composed OF Messrs. Lane, Clinton
and Burke. Lane and Burke favored
the appointment Of Miss Burt, assist

school. Clinton favored Miss Mullins,

A Pair of "Pants."

From the Conneaut News.
A half-starved. ragged knight OF the
road strolled down one of Conneauts
principal streets a few mornings ago.
Every now and then he would knock
at some back door in quest of a crust
OF bread. He met with receptions more
or less tender according as he struck
the home of the big-hearted citizen or
misery hanger-on of the town. Final
ly he came to a residence from which
a physicians sign was croaking u
soul thrilling music as the sweeping
November wind swung IL to and fro.
The noise attracted the tramp. and he
thought to himself that doctors are al
ways kind-hearted fellows. So he
walked to the kitchen door and raped
A domestic flung open wide h portal
and greeted him with a pleasant smile.
Mr.. Tramp told his piteous story OF
hunger and wretchedness. aud his tears
met a warm response in the eye OF the
kind lady and a good breakfast was
set out for the wanderer. He partook
OF the meal in silence. but was evident
IN deeply thinking. Here was more
Kindness thar he had encountered be-
