OUR ~MENDACITY.


New Orleans Times-Democrat.
"I suppose you have seen those terrible
Soul-Laid Bare albums that used to be
popular among certain gushy maidens,"
page contained a list of question-'what is
your favorite color?' What novel do you
like best? and so on-and each victim was
requested to fill in the answers for the
edifcation OF the company. 1t was a
frightful ordeal, and 1 was reminded of the
things-which are now happily out of date
by an ingenious variation of the scheme
which was worked the other night by a
bright young woman, out near Audubon
Park. She was entertaining a party Of
friends at her home, and the desultory
small talk had drifted, somehow or other,
to the conventional fbs of everyday life.
Some quaint things were said, and finally
the hostess took a blank book and wrote
this question at the top of the first page:
What conventional lie is told most fire.
quently In casual Conversations Everybody
was asked TO supply an answer. and the
collection as a whole was amusing. One
man wrote: The two lies We tell oftenest
on paper are Dear Sir" and yours truly"
The person addressed Is seldom dear, and
the writer is never truly his'n.' Another
replied: The commonest conventional lie Is
Good morning. next commonest, Glad
TO meet you Here are a few others l re-
call at random: ~ never pay any atten-
ton TO anonymous letters" Is a familiar
boast and a familiar falsehood.' We often
declare, IF I have anything to say about
a man ! say IL right to his face" gener-
ally we don't ~ am not in the least
superstitious'' is one of the hardest-worked
lies in the world: we are all at heart in
tensely superstitious.' There were a
couple OF dozen answers In ALL" added the
bookish man, land some of them were
rather clever. In looking over the lot 1 was
certainly impressed by the amount of mis-
cellaneous mendacity We use to lubricate
the wheels of everyday social intercourse.
To be brought face 70 face with IL en- bloc
Is a startling experience"

UNION STOCKYARDS, INDIANAPOLIS,

characterize the horse market, only about
Ice head having been offered In the sale.
The offerings were generally a good kind.
but there were none for which phenomenal
prices could have been expected. The num-
Der of buyers on the market was not as
large as heretofore this week. but there
were enough to exhaust the supply at
quotably steady prices compared with
those current in previous sales this week.
Statesmen and owners seem to be satisfied
with results and the market closed steady.

RAIN WEAKENED WHEAT
Corn Closed Lower and Oats Higher
Than on Neutrality-suspicious.
steady at a shade Decline.

CHICAGO, May S1-The wheat market
was strong early to-day on higher cables.
but weakened later on rain and prospects
of more of it in the Northwest, July closing
unchanged. Corn closed hGAc lower and
oats a shade higher. Provisions at the
close were a trife lower all around.
July wheat opened 1kc over Tuesday at
67sd67kc, and advanced sharply to 67ss@
c7%c because Liverpool was sd higher.
Paris also was strong, and the Northwest
without general rains. The showers re-
ported from that section were believed to
be insufficient. Later rains were reported.
and the signal service issued a prediction
of more rains for that territory. The mar
ket held well against that for a time. but
as the end of the session drew near grad
ually gave way. Trade. which early was
active, also became more quiet as the close
approached. July dipped to 6l3sQ671zc,
reacted quickly to 67&c, and then slowly
declined to 67Q671sc, at which it closed,
unchanged from Tuesday. Texas claimed
some damage from heavy rains, and the
French crop was freshly reported from
five to six weeks behind. Otherwise the
crop reports were about as usual. Local
receipts, LOT TWO DAYS, WERE loTty-One Cdis,
one of contract grade. For the same per-
iod Minneapolis and Duluth reported $40
cars, against 4Ss last week and sS a year
ago. Clearances, in wheat and flour, were
equal to $4,000 blu. New York reported
twenty-five loads taken for export. The
cash business was slow.
The corn market was strong early, in
sympathy with wheat and on higher Liv-
erpool cables. Country offerings were gen.
orally reported freer, however, and as the
crop reports retained their rosy tinge the
market declined. Trade was rather quiet,
although a fair cash business was done.
Receipts here were 4I0 cars. July sold from
375sc to 37kc, closing heavy at the bottom,
kGLc reduced from Tuesday.
The oats market was firm for July, but
weak for May. At the decline there was
a better cash demand for May. Trade was
quiet and the range narrow. There was
a fair shipping demand, and no particular
selling pressure from the elevator people.
Receipts here were thirty-three cars. July
sold between 21asd21hc and 2lAc, and closed
a shade over Tuesday at IAd2Sc.
Provisions were steady; trade quiet. Hog
receipts were large and prices at the yards
off, but the pit wast,sustained By a fair
cash demand and somes covering by shorts.
July pork sold between S1l3O and s1.221a,
and closed &c lower at Sl1. 2217; July lard
between s6.S2h and $3.50, closing a shade
Sc. 5O66. 521A and $3.50, with the close 2hc
