although the contest Is growing quite
active and warm. There Is some talk
that one or two over-ambitious local

the law officers Of the county should be
vigilant and alert, and everything con-
nected with the primaries will be con-
Quoted as it ought to be, n trans
gressors or those who break the peace
or attempt to break it, and Who desire
to make trouble, should be speedily
prevented from doing any mischief OF

MISS HILLS RECITAL.
A Pleasing Entertainment Given Last
Evening,

Miss Eleanora Hill last evening de-
lighted a large audience at the court
house with an evolutionary recital of
over an hour. She played upon the emo
tions of THE audience as a master plan
list plays upon his Instrument, bring
ing forth in turns tears and laughter,
sorrow and joy. There was no affecta-
tion o strain in her delivery and ges-
lures, but SHE entered into the spirit of
the selections to such an extent that
she carried the audience with her, and
it unconsciously broke out into applause
after particularly strong passages. In
selections like the TRAMP at the Or
gam and the Woman Before the
many to tears, while in selections like
when Saltwater Won" she thrilled the
audience with her descriptive ability
until they were heart and soul in the
horse race, and breathlessly awaited
the finish of the race. But 1t was in dia-
lect pieces, descriptions of rural festiv-
titles and in humorous selections that
she earned the greatest applause and
wherein she kept the audience in con
slant laughter. Her Delsarte mov
ments and gestures were graceful and
effective. Miss Hills recital was indeed
a rare treat, and she received many en-
coniums from those present after the
entertainment.

CHICAGO, July 23.-Big worlds
shipments, larger receipts and unre-
sponsible cables caused decline in
wheat to-day and the close was INC
under Saturday for the September
option. September corn closed h@Ac
and September oats &c down. At the
close provisions were &c to 221ac de-
pressed.
Wheat was very tame market to-
day. Liverpool showed practically no
response to the advance here Saturday
and worlds shipments large, showing
good increases from Russia and the
Danubian country. 1t was the sort of
news which greeted the beginning
trade, September opening " to 1c I'M
der Saturday. There was some cover
ing by shorts for profits and Septem-
Der rallied to 7S1sc. The rally which
traders were playing for failed to
materialize, because of outside apathy
and reaction followed. Heavy re-
ceipts and slack cash business DUR
ing the rest of the session held the
market true to the downward course
and the wind up was lifeless and
weak. September dropped to 76%c
and closed 11zc lower at 76%@767sc.
Clearances at the seaboard in wheat
and flour were equal to 100000 bush
els. Primary receipts aggregated
