FLOOD OF LOVE LETTERS.
Prof. a. r.. rock. Who Never Kissed
an Woman. Gaining Notoriety.

CHICAGO. April 2S.-With every mail
eome owing letters from all over the coun-
try. Offering proposals OF marriage to Prof.
Algie r. Crook. OF the Northwestern Uni
vcrsity, the man who recently admitted 10
his class that he never swore. never tasted
irtoxicants. never smoked and never kissed
or Rugged a woman. They came from
earnest women all over the country; maids.
widows and grass-widows. They came by
telegraph. telephone and registered letter.
They breathe a spirit Of idOlatry. of rev
crence and of warm sentimental devotion.
Professor Crook refused TO discuss or dis
o,ose them. but an intimate friend said
such was the tenor of the perfumed.
crested and tinted missives. IF Professor
Crook never used a swear word before. .
said this friend. "he is strongly tempted

chorus girls are divided IN their opinions
as TO the veracity OF Professor Crook IN
saying that he never kissed a woman
Most of them agree that his statements
stamp him a fossil. and some think n
woulG be fun to kiss him, just TO let him
know what he's missed.
Crook says: you ana the other newspa-

American Banker.
With the passing OF the United States from
the role OF a debtor 10 that OF a creditor ma
ton there has sprung up on the part or American
investors a lively interest in foreign securities
which a few years ago were practically unknown
in this country. The market price OF our govern
ment bonds Is now on an interest basis Of from
los to lis per cent; many municipal Issues are
selling AT from 2.S 10 a 40 basis. and the IN
deriving securities of established railway sys-
tens at from 80 TO $50. The shares OF some Of
our strongest banking institutions are quoted at
a figure netting the purchaser only from 1 10 ?
nsr cent. on his investment. and the market
nrice Of the established dividend payers among
me railway stocks Is so high that the return 10
investors Is bat q trihe over , per cent. Ii II
mall wonder, therefore, that capitalists should
look with favor upon the Introduction OF equally
safe securities OF other countries which are or
fered at relatively lower prices Hence the over
subscription OF the various English. German.

American scholarship Needs Money.

Prof. Hugo Munsterburg. in May Atlantic.
| we'll remember a long conversation
which l had with one OF the bes; English
scholars, who came over here to lecture
when | had been only a short time i'm the
country and was without experience in
American academic affairs. We spoke about
the disa%ppOintingly low level of American
scholarship. and he said 10 me: America
viii not have trst-clasS scholarship. in the
sense i'm which Germany and England has
IL. til every university professor in the
lea0ing universities has at least Sl0. 600 sal
airy. and the best scholars receive about
$4,000" | was NJ that time shocked and
called II q pcssimistc and materialistic
view. But ne insisted: No. the American
ia not anxious fo- the money itself. but
money is 20 him the measure OF success.
and. therefore, the career needs the back
ing OF money TO raise IL TO social respect
and attractivcncss and 10 win over the
finest minds. Ny oxford acquaintance did
not convince me at that time. but the years
have convinced me, the years which have
brought me into contact with hundreds of
students and Instructors I'm the whole land.
the years In which ! have followed the
development Of some Of the finest students.
VINO hesitated long whether TO follow their
inclination toward scholarship. and who
went into law or business for the sake of
the social premiums.

What We spend for Drink.
Harper's Weekly.

harper weekly.
According 10 the American Grocer. we.
the people of the United States Including
Kansas and Maine). spent one thousand
and sixty million dollars last year for al
cOholic drinks. Counting our population at
seventy millions. hat would be about SIS
apiece. The United Kingdom spent last wear
for drink about seven hundred and eighty
million dollars. or nineteen dollars apiece
for It's inhabitants. IL would seem from this
that the Americans only drink about one
fourth less per gullet than the people of the
British isles. but we must remember that
spirits and wines are very much cheaper
there than in this country, and that even
beer is somewhat cheaper. SO that Si9 in
England doubtless buys at least twice as
much alcoholic beverage as S5 buys here.
One would like To know the truth about
this American biilion-dollar expenditure
for drink. what proportion of IL promotes
health and happiness. what proportion of Il
~prejudices both. There Will be little dis
pute that a very considerable share of the
money could be more advantageously eX-
pended In other ways. The Prohibitionisrs
and their sympathizers will hold that IL is
much worse than merely wasted. Philo-
moderate views will disagree with that
conclusion. but will doubtless grant that
the Nations run bill could be diminished
1t least one-half without detriment to the
welfare of any one except such OF our fell
low-citiZcns as Subsist on the profit there
Is in making and selling the rum.

LOCAL GRAIN AND PRODUCE.
A Fairly Good Week. Despite Early
t~nfn,o,able Coadit.ars.

Notwithstanding the depressing weather condi-
tons under which the past week opened, the
volume of trade showed at the close an average
that compares very favorably with that of sew
era! weeks previous. Both dry goods men and
procers report sales better than they had looked
for. and they maintain confidence in the prom
ises of the future. Some complaint is made that
collections are a trihe slow, but IL is not gem
eral, and there is little IL anything In known
conditions To render such a state Of affairs nee
essary.
vegetables are liberal. and prices are low for
the season. Some excellent strawberries are
coming on the market. and the prices are rea-
scnahle. Tropical fruits are steady.
There Is nothing to note in the grain trade,
90 rise. but the increased price fails to add to
receipts. Corn is about steady; oats unchanged.

none. As usual at the close OF the week,
there were not many fresh arrivals OF cat
tie. and there was no quotable change or
Improvement perceptible in prices compared
with those current for equal kinds yester-
day. The receipts this week show little
change compared with last week and an
Increase of 900 over the corresponding week
q year ago. Thus far this year the receipts
are nearly 1900 larger than the same period
last year. There has been an unusually
satisfactory market all week. especially for
tat cattle. Prices have not been materially
advanced. but there has been very little
fuctuatiOn, and the market was more
satisfactory on that account. The supplies
have been barely large enough to meet the
requirements OF local houses, and shippers
have been unable TO complete many orders.
A better class OF cattle was marketed than
for some time past. and some OF the highesu
prices OF the year thus far were realized.
In the steer line loads that were not top
kinds sold as high as $5.65. heifers were
reported as high as sos and cows sold 10
10 $3.50. The bull market was also strong.
with sales as high "a s4.35. and the extreme
Price for calves was s6.25. Quotations:
