THE CANDY CHILD @ =
 W6of H0ppened TO a Liafie Boy Woo Ate Too R9xcb
By R. ". BUTTON

Aunt Matilda was busily engaged in the kitchen, putting the finishing touches to the innumerab1e delicacics designed to grace the Christmas table. The children of the household were in teresting spectators of the old woman's work, being present by special permls- sion of their mother.
 What you chil'ren wants to do to- morrow-dat is, what you chiTren doesn't want to do," remarked the old woman. as she paused in her work, "is to see dat you doesn't eat too much tomorrow. Cause eff you does, you is liable to be like CT chile dat I has in mind, an de Lawd knows dat you doesn't want to be like dat chile.''
 The little ones we'll knew that these words of Aunt Matilda were prelim- mary to one of those stories with which she so often delighted them, and they impatiently awaited it.
 Dis chile dat speaks of," contin- ued the old woman, as she resumed her Iabors. had one of de mos rapacious appetites dat you ever heerd of. Eatin' all de time, an eatin' all sorts of tings. His ma an pa tell him, of course, dat all wrong, an at dere is CT time fo eatin' as we'll as CT time fo' not eatin', but Lawd bless you, chilren. dat boy he pay no mo 'tention to what his ma an pa say den eff dey didn't 'zist. Why, dey even see de Wizzle Wuzzle Man bout him, but MT. Wizzle Wuzzie he say dat he ain't gwine to do anything Jes' yit, an fo' to let de chile keep jes right on eff he wants to.
 An de chile he keep right on" re- marked the old woman, as she com pleted frosting a giant cake, '.notwith- standin' to de contrary, an matters go frum wuss to wuss. Bimeby, Christ mus come round, an dat boy he gin to eat frum de mint he wake up, candy an cakes an apples, an de Lawd knows what Course his ma an pa 'monstrate wid him, an tell him dat dey has no jections to his eatin' jes' what he like, purvided he eat in mod ration. But, Lawd bless you, chil'ren, he pay no mo- 'tention to what dey say den befo', an den de strangest ting happen dat you ever heerd of.
 Aunt Matilda paused to note the eff feet of her words upon the little ones, and then she continued:
 Tt wus gittin' toward de dark she said, when dis chile's ma an pa miss him. Dey hunt high an dey hunt low, but don t find him, an off sots his pa fo' de house of de Wizzle Wuzzle Man. He find MT. Wizzle Wuzzle

The Transparent Man.

A strange human freak has just died at Toplitz, Bohemia, in the person of Count Orloff. This in dividual, who was known as "the transparent man, and was exhibit ed all over Europe, was almost en- tirely feshless, his frame being but skin and bone, and his bones pos sessed such q peculiar quality of transparency that one could read the dial of a watch through his leg. Needless to say, Orlof was a consid- serable puzzle to the medical ,frater- nifty when in the flesh, a term, of strictly fguratiye application in his aoca

As Broad as It Was Long.

Lloyd Mifiin, the poet, lives in retirement in a beautiful house at Columbia, Pa, but now and then for the sake of change he makes a short visit to New York or to Bos- ton.
 Not long ago Mr, Mif1in attended church service of a sensational sort. The preacher discoursed upon delicate subject with bad taste, and MT. Mif1in for a whole hour shuddered with disgust and yawned with lassitude.
 At the end some one asked the poet what he thought of the sermon. He replied:

 corner was dat chile. Dat is, what was
 de chile, fo' he had done turned into
 CT mixture of candy an cake, an all
 sorts of t'ings.
 tOf course, chil'ren," solemnly re-
 marked the old woman, as she noticed
 the surprise of the little ones, "it was
 dat chile, an den ag'in 1t wasn't. De leetle boys pa was mos grieved to
 death to see what done happen, an he ask de Wizzle Wuzzle Man what kin be done in de matter. Mr. Wizzle Wuzzle puff out nuther big cloud of

WHEAT DESCENDS AGAIN
BUT NERVOUSNESS
in GRAIN OPERATIONS
Wheat Business Restricted Largely to
Local Dealers-CabIes Are Disap-
pointine-Shorts Good Buyers at the
Deeline-Better Prices for Oats and
Corn.

CHICAGO, March 26-Inactivity
prevailed on the Board of Trade today,
ana after rather nervous session May
wheat closed Use lower. May corn
was up 1-S@1-4e and oats We're $40
Use better. Provisions closed strong,
with the May products from sc to 15c
higher
There was only a moderate trade in
wheat and the business was confined
largely to local operators. May opened
l-Sc TO l-4q3-Sc lower at 70 1-2c to
u 5-8 q y 3-4c, under the influence of
the disappointing cables, which failed
to respond as readily as expected by
many traders to the late upturn here
yesterday and in consequence there
was considerable wheat for sale at start
by some of yesterdays buyers. Shorts
were good buyers at the decline and
the market rallied, May selling up to
1913 1-8c. During the remainder of
the session the market was easily in
nuenced, but the change in prices was
slight. The close was steady, with
May 1-Sc lower at ~ 5-8072 SAC.
Cfearances of wheat and flour were
equal to $4,000 blu. Primary receipts
were $4,000 bu, against 1000 blu a
year ago. Minneapolis and Duluth re-
ported receipts of 242 cars, which with
local receipts of "a cars, none of con-
tract grade, made total receipts for the
three points of 266 cars, against 81
cars last week and 255 cars a year ago.
Little Doing in Corn.
Ihere was only light trade in corn,
but in spite of the dullness the mar
ket was strong, the small receipts be-
ing the main strengthening feature.
The business was mostly of a local
character and confined to scalpers and
pit traders After ranging between 43c
and 43 1-2043 5-8c, May closed 1-80
lac higher at 43 1-4@43 3-Sc. Local
receipts We're n cars, which none of
contract grade.
A builish sentiment pervaded the
oats pit throughout the day, and the
market was strong, with a good trade
the greater part of the day. Reports of
late seeding occasioned by the ex-
tremely wet condition of the ground
and estimates of a decrease in the
acreage were the chief bull factors and
caused good general commission
house demand. The close was strong,
with May 3-4@7-Sc higher at 800
80 1-8c, after ranging between 80 1-8c
and 80 lac. Local receipts were 1872
cars.
The provision pit was decidedly dull
early in the day, and prices were low
er on increased receipts of hogs and
a decline at the yards. Later a fair
demand from packers developed and
better tone was exhibited. The close
was strong, with May pork 15c higher
at $3.50. May lard was sc higher at
S10.15, and ribs up 71-2c at 5000
9.92 1-2.
The estimated receipts for tomorrow
are Wheat, % cars; corn, 125 cars;
oats, 215 cars, and 10000 head of hogs.
