A CoccLY SEA YARN.
Why Perkins Was Ridieuled for Poor
Marksmanship.

1t seems that one day the captain Of
the tug that was towing the target
during artillery practice felt moved to
take smoke. After filling his pipe he
discovered that he had no matches and
so signaled the officer in command of
twelye-inch gun The officer turned
to 4 hardened old aI-tilleryman and in
quired:
Perkins, can you give the gentle
man lighty
Perkins lowed he could and squint-
ed through the telescope. After a
careful estimate of the rate Of speed
of the tug ana the strength of the
wind Perkins yanked the lanyard and
sent a twelve-inch solid shot hurtling
through the atmosphere with such
consummate skill that it passed just
close enough so that the metal. heated
to incandescence by the friction Of the
air, set the tobacco in the captains
pipe on fire. But alas for Perkins!
He had forgotten about the wave mo-
ton. The tug rose upon a wave just
in time to bring that pipe within the
suction caused by the passage Of the
shot. Result, some of the burning to-
bacco was blown into the captains
eyes. wounding his feelings so that he
Immediately headed for shore and re-
fused to take the targets out again
that day. Whereupon the officer in
charge of the drill was so furious that
he summoned a drumhead court-mar-
tial and had Perkins sent to the dog
house for thirty days for disgraceful
Incompetence. As a bit of circumstan-
tial evidence in corroboration Of this
interesting anecdote Perkins was
pointed out, an actual inmate Of the
guardhouse, his eyes red and swollen.

profit taking by wheat holders to make an easy
market for the December and May. The July has
been firm. The market has not been big one.
There have been. small scale. scalping OPP
erations by Armours selling early and buying
the dip. The Northwest cars were $685. against
s2S last year. Southwest receipts were large and
the primary total was $4,000 bu. The weather
was dry the winter belt and July here and
at ST. Louis was firm. The seaboard reported
six loads to South Africa. and Duluth sold TWEEN
~ loads to millers at higher prices. The visible
May increase about 112, 0O0, 900 bu. The
Northwest declared the farm offerings very
small. We still look for much higher prices and
favor buying all dips.
The December corn broke almost 1c to-day
and went to a discount of &c under the May
There deliveries of corn on December con-
tract and quite large deliveries expected this
Afternoon. The crowd thought there was some
selling of May by Armour. There was some in
crease in offerings from Illinois. The futures
generally lost Iac to Nc Cables up trifie. The
cash market was weak.
CHICAGO, Dec. 5.-There considerable
profit taking to-day In wheat, which was the
natural result. after weeks bulge. Northwest
receipts continue small, compared with last
year, but the primaries are liberal. The milling
for export and New York reported six for South
Africa. We look for 100000 blu increase in
visible, and market may sell down &c Monday,
but think IL is purchase on reactions.
December corn got down to 1c discount. De-
liveries were liberal and futures lost nc. Cash
markets were weak. Probably the receipts will
be more liberal and corn will sell some lower
the first of the week.
