BEARISH REPORT LIKELY
GRAIN WEAK IN ANTICIPATION OF
GOVERNMENT ESTIMATE.
Provision Market Threatens to Go to
Pieces. with Lower Prices for Hogs
and cke Selling.

CHICAGO, May 10.-Anticipation of a bearish
government crop report weakened wheat to-day.
The conflicting reports Of the atrike situation at
Buffalo also embarrassed trade. July closed at a
decline OF AGhc. Corn closed unchanged and
oats &c higher. Pork lost lOc. lard 2ha5c and
ribs 2hc.
Favorable weekly crop bulletins and d rather
bearish summary OF the foreign situation started
wheat easy. Covering caused a moderate ad-
vance. but the market received no support and
turned weak on the tradition that government
reports are invariably bearish in some respect.
The uncertainty OF a speedy settlement of the
Buffalo strike increased the weakness. July
opened &c lower at 72hQ12%c, advanced to 72kc.

received thirty-seven cars, of which one graded
contract. Minneapolis and Duluth got 1876 cars.

The aggregate of Western primary markets was
$4,000 bushels. against SIS, 600 a year ago. Clear
ances OF wheat and -four from Atlantic ports
amounted to 6s3, 600 bushels. The cash demand
showed some Improvement.
After a slight dip early the corn market became
steady. Light receipts and a good cash demand
encouraged speculative buying Receipts. 101

off to 33c. advanced to 33Ac and closed at s3hc.
An excellent demand for the Eastern account
and a good cash demand strengthened oats. Re-
ceipts. 27 cars. July started unchanged at ESQ
23c. rose to 23Ac and closed at 23a23hc.
Provisions declined under heavy liquidation in
duoed by lower prices for hogs and threatened de-
moralization of the cash trade. July pork opened
a shade lower at IS. 47i2ds.5o. declined to ss.35 and
closed at $40. July lard started unchanged at

"you are an old hand at it, l have only
just got married and don't understand
much about the business. / should
like to know whether a married man
has any rights left when he takes unto
himself a wife?"
Rights? Yes, lots. He has a right
to pay all the bills

you an instance. Every box, every

Of every description is stuffed full of

door to the ceiling with shelves, and
you wanted place to stow away a
couple of shirts, you couldn't find a
nook that wasn't full of hairpins, scent

odd feathers and artificial flowers, lit

Quick Answers

The quickest mail order
house in this region-that's
a grand distinction when cou-
pied with the highest degree
of efficiency, as it is here.
Thousands of New England
folk constantly trade with us
by mail, and there are thou
sands who, as yet, do not
know of the convenience of
having our great establish
ment as almost absolutely at
their disposal as though it
were in their own town or

that the advertisement be con-
sidered an invitation to drop
us a postal at their conven-

In China the sun and moon are
brother and sister. The moon is the
elder brother, who looks after his rath-
er silly sister, the sun. This is exactly
the reverse of our legends, which make
the sun the day king and the gentle
moon lady of the night.
One day in China, so the legend runs,
the sun asked the moon if she couldn't
go out at night. The moon answered
very sternly: mo. You are a young
lady. and it would be improper for you
to go out after dark Then the sun
said, But the people keep looking at
me when go out in the daytime" So
the moon told her to take the golden
needles that she wore in her hair and
stick them into the eyes of people
when they stared at her. This is the
reason why no one can look at the sun
without pain.

Languages Useful to Travellers.

So far as languages are concerned,
English is far superior to all the rest
and will carry one through nearly ev-
cry part of the world. Next to that is
either French or Spanish. The Dopu-,
lar belief that French has much
wider vogue than Spanish is far from
accurate, for the latter tongue is spo-
ken in Mexico, in the Central and South
American republics, the West Indies,
the islands of the Atlantic. onthe west
coast of Africa, on the African, coast
from Morocco to the Kongo, by the
traders of Macao and the people of
the Philippines. j.
There are Spanish merchants in near
ly every city, as well as a Spanish con-
sui and consular agent.
French is spoken in every consulate
excepting those of the United States of
America, while German Is becoming
more widely spoken every year and
will carry n traveller almost as far as
English, this being due to the excellent
policy of the empire, which compels
every consular official to speak English
and practically obliges every CONNER

Horace Walpole tells lively story of
an old porcelain ven3er. who had an
exceedingly, rare and valuable jar on
which he sci an almost fabulous price.
One hot summer a slight volcanic
shock, such as the British isles occa-
sionally experience, logged his house
about his ears and split his porcelain
vase. To an ordinary m'n,l the accident
would have been ca1am'toUs, but the
china seller rose superior to fortune.
He doubled the price of the article im-
mediately and advertised it as 1.-The
only jar in the world which had been
cracked by an earthquake" Nothing
very slow about that. Whether he got
his money is not added, but he certain.
