The body Of Rev. Edward Dunbar,
author of the Sunday school song.
There's a Light in the Window for
Thee" will be taken from the pau
pers' graveyard at Coffeyville, Kan,
and buried by the side of the mother
of the deceased in New Bedford, Mass.
Relatives of the dead preacher-poet
lately have communicated with the
Coffeyyille authorities on the subject
After serving a term in the Mime
sofa penitentiary for bigamy in the
early '70s. Dunbar became a wanderer
and nothing was heard of him till
three years ago in the Coffeyville city
jail, where he applied for food and
lodging. 1t was a stormy night, and
none knew from whence he came. He
was given succor but death came to
him before morning. Letters in his
pockets told who he was, but as no
kin could be located by wire, the au-
thorities buried him.
Dunbar was rising young preacher
in New Bedford, with a wife and four
children. Apparently without cause
he left his family and came to Kansas,
engaging in evangelistic work. He
conducted revivals in many towns
with marvellous success. He went
from Kansas to Minneapolis, Mimi.
to conduct series of revival meet
ings. While there he fell in love with
a young woman who attended his re-
vival and married her against the
wishes of her folks, who were suspi-
cious that all was not right with the
ict

Hogs-Receipts. $500: shipments $780, There
Is a decrease Of 1900 hogs this week compared
with last, but an increase of 5000 over the same
week year ago. and nearly 5000 over the
Responding week two years ago. Thus far this

In point of prices the hog market here this
buyers have paid good premium over prices
prevailing elsewhere At first they did so with
ly large enough to meet the requirements and
they hoped to increase the receipts Their ex-
the supplies continued small When they dis
covered that. the prices they were paying were
at the close OF the week the market here was
nearer In line with others than IL had been AL
satisfactory as compared with other places. there
mas peen a gradual decline. and at the close of
of last week and & to Soc lower imam t tee
ago The heavier grades have suffered more
wider spread in prices than there has been for
some time There is difference of 35c between
enee was &c. On account of the high prices
here shipping orders have not been plentiful but
packers nave been free buyers at prevailing
prices The quality at all times has been very
satisfactory. and therefore, hogs of equal weight
have sold at practically the same price.
The receipts to-day were only about half as
large as a week ago, but little larger than a
year ago. Ordinarily statesmen would have ex-
peeted steady prices for this supply but on ac-
count of the comparatively high prices prevail
ing heretofore this week they could not have
been surprised when asked to make liberal con-
ccssons this morning Buyers were also encour-
e eBa oy 70 ase prizes tbs , ,o and Were in
for dealers to get together, but finally the Offer
ings were moving toward the scales, and a sat
sfactory clearance was made at lower prices.
There was fair shipping demand for light hogs,
and in general way prices were not to exceed
10c lower than yesterday. but with only fair
competition for the heavier grades prices were
anywhere from 15c to 35c lower. and the average
for the day right at 15c lower than yester-
days average. Sales at the close were reported

STRONG GRAIN MARKETS
SEPTEMBER WHEAT CLOSES At A
GAIN OF NEARLY TWO CENTS.
Oats Add Major Fraction to the
Price, Corn Is Higher and Provi-
siOns show Small Advances.

CHICAGO. Aug. III ere was much i'm
provement in grains. the market ruling
strong throughout the session and closing
with September wheat l%aG17sc higher, corn
up &c, oats ssG2.c better and provisions
from loo to 121kc higher.
Wheat was especially strong. under the
influence of reports of wheat blight in
South Dakota and generally discouraging
crop advices from the Northwest. Buying
orders were plentiful from the start and
prices grew in strength as the session adj
vanced. The opening was about steady,
Stepember being shade lower to shade
higher, at 7Sa7S1sc TO 1850, but with good
local demand, accompanied by buying or
ders from st. Louis and the Northwest,
there was a gradual advance throughout the
day, with now and then a slight reaction on
realizing Prices took final squirt up
ward within the last few minutes of trad
ing, and the close was at the top, September
being 14Q17sc higher, at ,S0ssc. Clearances
of wheat and -four were equal TO S21.5Oo bu.
Primary receipts were 622, 500 blu, against
1,051, 402 bu a year ago. Minneapolis ana
Duluth reported receipts of 15s cars, which,
with local receipts of 80 cars-20 of contract
grade-made a total of 249 cars, against 2Ae
cars last week and 459 cars a year ago.
Corn was helped largely by the strength
in wheat although the weather was little
cool for the quick development of the crop.
There was a fair trade, but the market was
not as active as il had been OF late Re-
ceipts continued hghi, with little prospect
of much increase in the movement Inc
close was strong, with September up 1Ac,
at 52hc, after selling between &c and 52lsc
Receipts were 145 cars, eleven OF contract
grade.
There was a fair trade in oats and prices
were strong in sympathy with the better
tone in other grains. Some OF the Dig
houses had considerable stuff for sale, put
commission houses had plenty OF buying
orders, which sustained prices. After sell
ing between 331sc and 34l4c September closed
ss4ac higher at 34Q34ssc Receipts were
25S cars.
The chief feature in provisions was the
light offerings. With good demand for
ribs, and helped by the strength in grains,
the price of hog products ruled higher from
the start. Shorts were active buyers late
in the day. The close was strong, with
September pork loo higher at $l3.75. lard up
121ac at ST. 95 and ribs l0c higher at SS.0l14.
Estimated receipts for Monday: Wheat,
los cars; corn, 200 cars; oats. II cars; hogs,
81 900 head.

Representative Sales

Sheep-Receipts, $50; shipments 200. The re-
ceipts of sheep and lambs this week have also
been comparatively liberal, showing increase
OF 500 over last week, and over 200 compared
with the same week a year ago and the cor
responding week two years ago. Thus FAR this
year the receipts a little over 1900 smaller
than the same period last year, and the official
receipts last month were LOG larger than the
same month year ago.
There were more frequent changes in prices of
sheep and lambs this week than there has been
for some time past. but in the end the change
In either direction is not material. At different
times changes of much 25c in prices oc
CURED. but nearly all declines were followed by
a rally in prices and vice versa The supplies
were not excessive at any time, but about three
fourths of the weeks supply came in the latter
half of the week The quality this week has
probably been little more satisfactory than the
average recently. The greater part of the week
the best lambs were salable high as 1915 and
sheep as high as 1915, but at the extreme close
of the week the top prices were practically $3.50
for lambs and 81. so for sheep. Most OF the good
lambs have sold around S5G5.50, with common
kinds low $3.50. and the bulk of the good
sheep have sold at s3G325. with culls as low as
S. There were not many yearlings sold as such.
and therefore, IL was difficult to make an esti-
mate of the market based upon actual sales but
nearly every day the best selections were sala-
bic high "a. The receipts to-day were
active competition between buyers and
prices, in general way. were not a great deal
lower than yesterday. Most of the lambs here
sold at s5.25. a few high $3.50. and sheep
