EX- SENATOR DOUGLAS CONDI-
 TJON.

TION.
 Guilford, May 6.-EX-Senator John M. Douglas, who was stricken with paralysis about o'clock last Saturday afternoon at the Scranton hotel, at the south end of Guilford, is about in the same condition to-day that he was shortly after the stroke. Drs. Matthew son and Edgerton of Middletown have taken charge of the case, and a trained nurse has been summoned. Not much hope for the recovery of the patient, however, is entertained.
 MT, Douglas had spent the day fish ing and had but just returned to the hotel when he was stricken. His right side is completely paralyzed and the physicians attribute it to the bursting of blood vessel in the brain.
 MT. Douglas is at present the secre- tary of the w. & B. Douglas company. He was representative in 1865 and rep resented the Twenty district in the senate in 1871 and during the half of the session of 1896. succeeding the late Senator Pickering. He was warm friend of ex-Governor o. Vincent Coffin and instrumental in securing for him the nomination of governor. MT. Doug las was a delegate-at-large from the state at the Hayes and also Garfield nominations, and was a delegate to the Chicago convention that nominated Garfield and to the St Louis cOnven- ton that nominated Mckinley.

small hard knot.
Now, IL you will screw up rubber

down 1t will remain for a moment per-
fectly still and quiet. Then II begins
to uncoil in wildly erratic series Of
leaps and jerks, springing. this way
and that, stopping and starting again
and behaving exactly like something
alive. This fact flashed suddenly into
Billy's mind and on the instant he con-
ceiyed fiendish plot. Griggs was lean
ing slightly forward at the moment,
which caused a separation between his
collar and the nape Of his neck, and
with dexterous firt Billy tossed the
small, black rubber pellet into the
aperture.
'In about three seconds something
resembling galvanic shock passed
through the gentleman from Boston.
He Strengthened up, turned deadly pale
and clutched his dress coat in the lum-
bar region with both hands. What's
the matter?' asked the girl just then
the rubber let out another,reef, and he
leaped to his feet as if he had been shot.
If you've never had twisted rubber
down your back I'd advise you to try
it some time, just as an interesting ex-
perience. 1t feels like Pinch garter
snake having an attack Of st. Vitus'
dance. Even when you know whatit is
it makes your flesh crawl and your hair
bristle and when 1t began to squirm
merrily over Griggs' spine his aristo-
cratic composure vanished like pie in
a poorhouse. He tried to grab the
thing, but it evaded his clutch and
started on detour along his fifth rib.
"That was more than flesh and blood
could stand, and with moan of hor-
ror, he plowed his way through a
phalanx of human knees. gained the
main aisle and rushed headlong into
the night. People at the door saw his
white, staring face, and, taking him for
a lunatic, gave him plenty of room. The
young lady, deeply chagrined by his in
explicable behavior at the theater, for
bade his name to be mentioned in her
presence. She and Billy were married
the following summer"

AN IMPROMYIU ADDRESS.
Made 1t LamentabIe
Failure.


A hot presidential fight was just be-
ginning to crackle. One of the two
great political parties of a sovereign
state was choosing delegates to the
national assemblage which wouldnom-
mate candidate for the chief magis-
tracy. Upon the action of this state
much depended, and all over the coun-
try telegrams giving the first news Of
the convention were arxiously await
ed, writes II. c. Pearson in Woman's
Home Companion.
The spacious hall Of meeting was
early filled with the miscellaneous as
sortment of small politicians who usu-
ally form the bulk Of such a gather
ing. They were fairly seething with ex-
citement, caused by the knowledge of
their momentary Importance in the
eyes of the nation.
Presently the hum of conversation
arising all over the room was varied
by burst of applause which origina-
ted near the main entrance and spread
through the crowd like firein dry prai-
rie grass. The cause was not Far to
seek. The boss himself had arrived,
and his followers FASTENED to greet
him with the adulation which was his
meat and drink.
Hon. Horton Lloyd advanced down
the center aisle, his head and shoul-
ders thrown far back, his right hand
inserted in the bosom of his Prince Al
bert coat, a self-satisfed smile curving
the corners of his mouth. AS he pre-
pared to seat himself, well toward the
front, yet not upon the platform, cries
of Speech! speechl' came from the
four corners of the hall.
1t seemed a natural and spontaneous
outburst, but little gray man by the
side of the boss chuckled quietly as he
whispered to his companion: They do
that well, don't they?"
In response to the popular demand
the boss mounted the platform and
smilingly surveyed the audience as he
waited for the tumult to subsiie. Gen

CHICAGO, February 5.-Mlld
weather, accompanied by some of the
needed snow; heavy receipts and the
weakness of cables, had a depressing
effect on the wheat market to-day,
May closing &c under Saturday. Corn
closed Ac and oats 1sc lower. Pro-
visions at the close were 5@121ac i'm
proved.
1t was a dull day in the wheat pit
and a comfortable one for the bulls.
May opened nc down at 681b@6SAc.
Northwest receipts were heavy, the
weather was mild, and it was reported
that snow, needed to protect the win
ter crop, had fallen in portions of the
belt where it has been long wanted.
Liverpool eased off after an appear
ance of steadiness, and Paris was de-
pressed equal to 1c per bushel. These
conditions were the dominant in
fluences of the day. There was a
steady stream of liquidation and little
demand either for futures or cash.
For time following the opening the
market made little struggle to hold,
May rallying to initial figures after
touching Csc, but the struggle was
soon given uf On the decrease in
the visible, which was a bit more than
expected, May advanced from 67s4c
to 67B@6Sc, but held for only a
moment. The market sold off from
that point to 675sc and closed weak,
May &c under Saturday at 675s@67Ac.
Primary receipts were $4,000 bushels,
compared with $4,000 year ago.
Minneapolis and Duluth reported 667
cars, against ABS last week and 621
the corresponding day last year. Local
receipts were 20 cars, two of contract
grade. Atlantic port clearances in
wheat and -four were equal to 100000
bushels.
The corn market was firm early, but
later eased off in sympathy with
wheat. Trade was quiet, but as coun-
try offerings were small, the market
yielded only after a stubborn fight to
the weakness of it's neighbor. Cables
were higher. Receipts here were S4S
cars, heavily over the estimate. May
ranged from 33as@331ac to $3.50
33Ac, closing at the bottom 1sc lower
than Saturday. In view of the heavy
receipts and the weakness of the
wheat market, the fact that the de-
cline was so small was a comfort to
holders.
\ The trade in oats was small. The
market was steady the greater part of
the session. but eased off near the end
in sympathy with corn. Local re-
ceipts were 1853 cars. May sold from
23Ac to 23asc, and closed at the bot
tom 1sc depressed from Saturday
closing.
Provisions, in spite of the weakness
OF wheat and heavy realizing by longs,
ruled firm. Liverpool was higher for
bacon and hams. The run of hogs was
liberal, but in the face of this offer
dngs on product were small and the de-
mand excellent. The main support.
1T was said, came from an influential
packer. Trade was fairly active
throughout the session. MAY pork
sold from s1OS71a to S1O.9715, and
closed 10@121ac over Saturday at
s1O.s591O.971a; May lard from s6.05
to $6.10@6121s, closing 71kc up at
$50. and May ribs from s5.S71b to
$5.921s05.s5, with the close 5@7bc
improved from the previous session
s5.921a.
Estimated receipts tomorrow:
Wheat, 33 cars; corn. 1850 cars:
oats, 300 cars; hogs, $4,000 head.
The leading futures ranged as follows:
