CORN SHORTS SEEK AID.


Chicago, July IA petition has
been handed to Secretary Stone of the
board of trade asking that a "margino,
price" be fixed OH July corn. which has
been curnprtd by a party headed by
John W. Gates The meaning of the
petition is that the directors proceed tC
fix Il fair price for corn based on the
selling price of the cereal iii markets
where the supply is not manipulated
Such a step, it is said, has not beer
taken in twenty years, although the
rules provide for such action.
Brokers generally are quoted MS be
ing opposed to the petition. Manager
Samuel Scotch of Harris. Gates II Co.
said It's a nice idea. If they win, all
right: if they lose. they act the baby.
What we have done with corn hurts ne
one who had made legitimate trades.
People who have sold us corn can get
the money when they deliver tho
goods. If n lot Of fellows have sold
wind, let them take the consequences"

The ASS Was Outside.

A good story is told of the quick
witted Irish lawyer, Baron O'Grady. 1t
is told of others, but the sequel to it is,
I think, the property of O'Grady.
He was on one occasion trying a
case in q country court, outside the
walls of which fair was in progress.
Amid the miscellaneous herds of ami.
mails were a considerable number Of
asses, and one of them commenced to
bray loudly. At once the chief baron
stopped the advocate, who, at that mo-
:ment happened to be pleading: ''Wait
moment, Mr.. Bushe, l cannot hear
two at once" The court sroared and
the advocate flushed. Presently, when
the court came to sum up, another ass
struck in, and the bray sounded
through. the court. Up jumped Mr.
Busche at once, with his hand to his
ear. Would your lordsnip speak lit
tie more loudly? There is such an echo
in the court that cannot hear distinct.

Cape and Tunic Effects Modish.

Little cape effects are the novel
features of the latest walking suits. A
mixed blue and black cloth has a gored
skirt hung from small yoke, and the
seams trimmed with black and white
braid. The jacket covers the hips, is
half-ftted in the back and straight in
front, where it is closed with passe-
menterie ornaments. About the Shout
ders is fiat cape trimmed with braid
and passementerie ornaments. The
sleeves are slashed on the outside of
the arm, to show a ruff OF blue silk
gathered into a narrow cuff of white
linen embroidered in black cotton, and
the turnover collar worn over soft
scarf Of blue silk is to match.
In shape the tunic is probably the
most novel feature of street costumes.
1t is used over skirts that trail trifle
and fits closely over them, fast ching
invisible on one side, sometimes under
a cluster Of up and down pleats or line
of trimming. But the tunic, in most
cases, is attached to the blouse under
an inconspicuous belt, and the whole
forms a coat worn over silk or lace
urderblouse.-New York Tribune.

A Cure for Rheumatism,

BRIDGEPORT, Wash, Oct. 2oth.-Rheu.
matism and kidney trouble seem to
be the prevailing ailments in this ter
ritory and particularly in Douglas
county.
A remarkable and plainly sure cure
has, however, recently been intro
duced.
1t is called Dodd's Kidney Pills and
although but a short time on the
market, it has already worked many
wonderful cures.
One of the most striking of these is
that of Mr.. John Higgins, who for a
long time suffered with rheumatism
and kidney trouble. The pains OF
these diseases had combined to make
his life very miserable indeed, and he
could get nothing to do him any good
till he heard of this new remedy. He
tells his experience with it in these
words:
"Dodd's Kidney Pills have done
more for my rheumatism and kidney
trouble than anything else have ever
used. There is more virtue in them
than in any other medicine, and will
always recommend them to all Of my
friends highly.

festivals to be held in Minneapolis and

Elmblad, however, is coming to
America, having resigned his position
las stage director and artistic manager
of the Royal opera at Stockholm to
accept a more lucrative position as
manager of the German section of the
Metropolitan opera in New York, He
will also be the bass soloist of the
German section. Mr. Elmblad is no
stranger to America, he having visited
here twice under engagement with
Maurice Grau. :. His voice is quite
phenomenal. It is unusually deep,
even for bass, and so powerful as to
be not always susceptible to artistic
handling. The singer, by the way, is
a brother of the late Magnus Elmblad,
Journalist of note and the most be-
loved of Swedish-American poets.
Before taking charge Of the splen-
did new opera house in Stockholm in
1898, Mr.. Elmblad was manager and
stage director of the Royal opera in
Prague. He has had many important
engagements in Berlin, Vienna, Lon.
don and Bayreuth; indeed, he is a
great favorite of Frau Cosima-Wag-
ner, and is heard almost every year at
the Rayreuth festivals.
The management of the Swedish
festivals will be quite satisfied to Sc
cure Solomon Smith, Hr. Ormann and
Fru Hellstrom, all stars of the first
