TELEGRAPHIC MARKET LETTER

Minneapolis. June 23.-Cables this
morning sufficiently weak. accompan-
led by clear skies in the southwest
opened wheat about a half cent lower.
On the break there was but a limited
demand until other grains showed ma
terial firmness and equally as good an
advance. Then shorts showed uneas-
mess which added nearly a cent to
values in short order. On the ad-
vance short Lines were again reinstated
giving the market toppy appearance
around 76ssc. Clearances are fair, be-
ing 347, 1000 bushels including flour.
The visible again showed decrease of
2,531 900 where it has been generally
expected that the time of year is due
to show increases. The receipts at
the thgee points are about equal to
those CT year ago, being 425 cars.

They create a. demand for great
amounts Of farm products. To bring
the illustration still further, does any
one contend that the Atlantic states
would be benefited if the whole coun-
try west of the, Alleghanies were eff
faced from the map The cases are
parallel. One part of the country is
the complement of the other, and the
prosperity of one section will not re-
tard but will help all the others.
Especially would the Atlantic states
be helped by the development Of the
Pacific slope, for the western states
would buy from the east, while at the
same time they would bring great sums
of money into the country from their
own sales of produce to the Orient.
AS far as staple products are con-
cerned. such as corn, wheat, and other
cereals, a. condition Of stability has
been reached in this country. The
great farming areas of the United
States are for the most part under
plow and further development will not
notably change the conditions as re-
CARDS the price or amount of those
crops. 1t is a mistaken idea to sup
pose that the .developm Of irriga-
tion will injuriously influence the farm.

Society's Work.
Practical Aid to Poor Families Who

Mr.. a. r. Levy, secretary of the Jew
ish Agricultural Industrial Aid So
ciety, whose headquarters are in Chi
cago, was among the visitors in the
city the latter part of the week. Mr..
Levy had been up month, inquiring in
to the condition of some families sent
out by the society, and investigating
into their needs This society; is doing
a practical, charitable work among the
poor, and yet. as Mr.. Levy says, it is
charity elevated to a business basis.
The society has been established for
fourteen years and lis for the purpose
of furnishing aid to poor people; who
desire to engage in farming and pos
sess homes of their own, yet who have
no means to begin. So we'll established

funds, many wealthy people investing
thousands of dollars and taking the
society,s loan certificates, which run
for ten years or less alt the option of
the directors, and draw per cent in

society has headquarters. Deserving
poor people, who desire to engage in
farming, apply to the repres entatives
OF the society for aid Their condition
and qualifications are taken into con
sideration and if it is believed they
will prove thrifty and successful, the
society lends them funds at 4 per cent
interest, after it has seen them to the
destination they desire. When they
have their lands filed upon, as in this
state, the society furnishes them such
sums of money as they need, within
reason, taking mortgages and notes

them in a practical way. The debtors
are never embarrassed or pushed for
the payment of loans, and in the end,
they are made self supporting farmers.

prevents the fulfillment of obligations.
At the present time there are 142 fam

number of families will be sent to this

There is great green parrot fish,
as brilliant in color as his namesake
the bird, showing himself boldly and
swimming along slowly, secure from
any assault. His scales are green as
the fresh grass Of springtime, and each
one is bordered by pale blown line.
His fins are pink, and the end Of the
tail is banded with nearly every color
Of the rainbow. He is snowy, but this
showiness serves him a good purpose
His flesh is bitter and poisonous to
man and probably so to other fishes as
well, and they let him well alone, for
they can recognize him afar off, thanks
to his gaudy dress.

bottom, is ''pink hind" You notice

THE GAME OF GAMES.
Golf. Says Thi. Writer, involves AR,


Science aI.iI Inspiration.
It is true that there is a point of
view from which golf may be regarded
as an extremely simple game the very
simplest of all the games with ball
and club, says William G. Brown in
the June Atlantic. The players object
is simple and single to the point Of
simple mindedness and singularity, one
might say-to put small ball in a
small hole with the fewest possible
strokes. But so are the objects Of the
highest ambitions, the guiding stars Of
careers the most perplexed and devi-
Gus. It is true, likewise, that all the
countless strokes a golfer makes are
resolvable into three kinds of stroke:
driving, approaching and putting. But
Mr.. Everard, in a lecture unsurpassed
for truth and brilliancy by any in all
the extremely clever literature Of golf,
has declared that to make those three
strokes Alright one must have "art, sci
ence and inspiration"
From the moment the ball leaves the
tee, whether it be topped, pulled or
sliced or whether, struck in proper
fashion a trifle below the medal line
and urged forward with an exquisite
free lashing out Of the wrists, it takes
fight as with wings and seeks it's true
course as with mind and purpose Of
its own until it drops into the cup with
stintinnab bulation that no louder clang
or paan ever surpassed in its sugges-
ton Of victory and consummation,
there is no foreseeing what perplexity
I or temptation to carelessness or over
confidence it will present
Not twice off the tee ground and the
putting green will the possibilities and
probabilities Of the stroke be quite the
same. In the lie, the wind, the dis
tance to be traversed, the obstacles to
be carried, there are variations not to
be reckoned by any known mathemat-
les. s. u! M
Then, as, the match approaches its
dreadfully quiet climax of defeat or
victory, the responsibility may grow
positively appalling, The. very delib-
Grafton which, impossible in most
games, is so characteristic Of this, SO
far from lessening the strain on ones
nerves, undoubtedly heightens it. One
has time to estimate the emergency, to
realize the crisis. 81
Not the fiercest rally at tennis. not
the longest and timeliest home run at
baseball, not the most heroic rush at
football, requires a more rigid concen-
tration Of thought and energy or a
more dauntless courage than the flick
of a putter that sends the ball crawl
ing on it's last little journey across the
putting green when the put is for the
hole and the hole means the match.
There is not a quality of mind or body

FIVE PERSONS ARRESTED.
Accused of RobbinG a st. Louis Mail
Carrier Last December.

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 29-Through the con-
fession of two convicts now serving seven
year sentences in the penitentiary at JEFF
ferson City Postoffice Inspector Dice late
to-day caused the arrest of five persons in
st. Louis on the charge of having robbed
Oscar Koelling, mail carrier, of a pouch
containing registered mail valued at 5000
on the night of Dec. II, 1901. The per-
sons under arrest are Jack Fickler and
Tom Commit employees in the city registers
office; Jerry Kahler, saloon keeper; Jerry
Creedon, known around town, and Emma
Higgins. Commit was bound over in the
sum of $500 and Kahler in the sum of
s., 500. Kahler procured bond Flicker, Cree
don and the Higgins woman will have a
hearing tomorrow.
Hugh O'Neill and Walter Mcnamara were
convicted Of burglary in st. Louis, and on
March 10, 1902, were sent TO prison to serve
seven-year terms. Recently they confessed
to the warden that they and John Durney
and Jack Fickler knocked down Mail Car
rier Oscar Koelling and stole the registered
mail pouch. One month later Durney was
killed in saloon fight. Post Office In
spector Dice was notified by the warden,
and to-day returned from an interview with
the convicts. According to their confession,
after koelling had been robbed in the hall
way of the old post office annex, on Fourth
street, the four jumped into wagon and
drove TO the house of Emma Higgins where
the pouch was found to contain $500 in
money and valuable but nonnegotiable pa
pers worth 81. 200. Accompanied by the Hig-
loon. where, assisted by Kahler, Conniff
and Creedon, the pouch and papers were
burned.
Post Office Inspector Dice says he is look
ing for another man and woman in connec-
ton with the robbery. but their names are

TEST OF PROSPERITY.
"Help Wanted" and "Situations
Wanted" Ads In a Newspaper.

'heIp wanted and "S1tuat1Ons
Wanted" Ads In a Newspaper.
Boston Journal
On the five Sundays of August, 1896, when
the country was in the midst of its ex-
perience with the Gorman-Wilson tariff,
the New York Herald published 4,710 ad-
vertisements of situations wanted by work.
ing people, and 1909 advertisements Of
help wanted" On the corresponding five
Sundays of August. 1902, under the Dingley
protective tariff, this same New York
newspaper published 1929 advertisements of
situations wanted by working people and
6,365 advertisements of help wanted" by
employers.
Gorman-Wilson tariff the situations want
ed exceeded the help wanted by far more
than two to one. In other words, for every
job there were two three eager appli-
cants. Now. in these five August Sundays
of this Dingley tariff year of 1902, the help
wanted exceeds the situations wanted by
the difference between 6,365 and 5.s2s. In
other words, there are more jobs than there
are men and women ready to take them.
Here is plain, homely illustration OF
great. significant truth of political
economy, as presented in the American
Economist. Somebody has taken the pains
to examine not only the New York Herald.
but the advertising columns of more than
on hundred newspapers in other parts OF
the United States, and has found that to-
day the chief newspapers of the country
are advertising half a million situations
that want help. In Seattle, for instance.
one newspaper calls for more than 15OO
persons, and In San Francisco the Elk
aminer advertises for 1900 persons for i'm
mediate employment. 1t is said that from
~ to 81 and 81 a day is being offered in the
West for common laborers, miners and
railroad hands. In every one of these one
hundred newspapers, save three or four
and these exceptions are unimportant-
there is a large excess Of help wanted
advertisements
Yet, as Senator Lodge observed at Port
land the other night, the Gorman-Wi
tarin did not dare to go very far in the d.
rection of free trade. 1t turned out to be
merely bad protective tariff'-ill-con-
sidered, inconsistent and inadequate But
because ii was such gross economic blum
der, II cut down the country's prosperity
as hailstorm mows a field of standing
grain. These situations wanted and help
wanted" advertisements in the daily news
papers are one of the most unerring tokens
of the state of the countrys business. Ac-
cording to this graphic record there never
has been such an urgent demand for help
as now-and yet many of these same news
papers that, in their advertising columns,
bear this unanswerable witness to the kin
ship of protection and prosperity, In their
editorial columns vociferously advocate
free trade.
