Chicago, Sept 19.-While there is end
less talk about the amount of grain that
is being diverted from the American lake
route to Canada, vessel owners seem to
lose sight of the fact that the gulf ports
are now taking a large share of the ex-
port grain which formerly was carried to
the eastern seaboard via Buffalo.
Wheat in particular shows heavy loss
in shipments by way of the Chicago Buff
falo route this year, and figures show that
the gulf ports are getting the grain. There
is a wide discrimination in carrying
charges In favor of both the gulf and Ca
madam ports, especially the former, thru
which a vast quantity of southwestern
and southern grain is now going.

BUYING LOTS OUT WEST
Minneapolis Firm Gets a Block of
1000 Lots in Livings-
ton, Mont.

Special to The Journal
Livingston. Mont, Sept. IA deed
was placed on file in the office of County
Clerk Angus which transfers from the
Northern Pacific; railroad all Of the COM
pany's lots in this city to Judson L..
Wicks, a real estate dealer Of Mime
apolis. The deed covers thirteen type
written pages and the consideration is
$9,146. 1t is said that it is Mr.. Wicks'
intention to place the lots on the market
Immediately.
This closes deal which was begun in 1899.
At that time the law firm of Wicks, Paige &
Lamb, in Minneapolis bought the remaining
town sites belonging to the Northern Pacific in
Montana, North Dakota and Minnesota. These
comprised about $4,000 lots in thirty towns
Since that time the firm has sold many lots
chiefly to residents and for Improvement. Many
towns have, developed largely because the firm
was in position to sell at reasonable figures
and to make deals quickly. The above deed
transfers about 1900 lots in Livingston, which
are considered very salable owing to the pros
porous condition of that city.
Sales in these thirty towns are handled from
Minneapolis, but Mr.. Lamb: and Howe Paige de-
vote considerable personal attention to the deals
in the different cities.

The MARCHING Card.

Take the queen of hearts and fasten
to it by means of little wax long
auburn hair. The other end of the
hair you attach to your coat button.
Place the card upon the complete
pack, shuttle carefully, so that the
card keeps its place upon the top, and
then lay the pack upon the table and
cry march," You do not move, and
OF course the card remains quiet. You
repeat the order march," several
times but the card is motionless.
You appear to be surprised, reflect a
awhile, however, and then say, that
probably the card is lady, and Of
course not accustomed to obey orders;
that she must be treated with more
politeness. You then approach the
table, take up the top card, when it
will appear that the card in question
is a lady. You then eXclaim-"Very
WE'LL we shall persuade her. however,
for no lady refuses a polite and cour-
teous request" "My dear madame,
beg you will have the kindness to
promenade littlei" You now walk
around the table, and the lady act
ually as requested, and to the surprise
of the spectators promenades slowly
upon the table.

The Obedient Ball,

For the purpose of this trick
wooden ball, two inches or so in diam
eter. will be required; an old GRO
quet ball will suit the purpose admir-
ably. This ball must be bored with
red hot iron, not straight from end
to end, but SO as to form a sort OF
angle in the middle, but the points
where the hole begins and ends should
be opposite each other
Through the hole thus formed pass
a piece of thin cord or string, and at
each end of this tie a large knot, so
as not to allow either of the ends to
pass through the hole in the ball.
Now you are ready to perform the
trick. Place one end of the string I'M
der your foot and take the other in
your right hand, holding the string
rather slack Lift the ball up to the
top of the string and let go of it when
it will of course run rapidly down the
string.
Repeat this several times in order
to show the audience that the ball
runs down the string quite freely, and
tell them that you can cause the ball
to become quite obedent to your will.
Again raise the ball to the top of
the string and allow it to run down
quite freely, as before, until it reaches
the centre, then tighten the string;
this causes the latter to be. as it were,
gripped by the angle in the centre
of the ball, which will thereby be pre-
vented from falling further down the
string. Ask the ball to drop to the
bottom, slaeken the string, and the
ball will obey you. Raise the ball
again, and ask it to go down the string
slowly; this is easily done by keep
ing the string moderately tight.
Invite any of the company to Sc
! lect a particular spot in the string at
which the ball must remain stationary
this being accomplished by tightening
the string as before when the ball
has reached the desired spot,
The trick can be repeated as often
as desired, as it gives no clue to the
secret. If the slackening and tighten
/ ing of the string be properly managed
1t will be unonticed by the company

1t. AS the bubble ought to last some
time that 1t may be seen and admired
by everybody in reach, the best pos
sible soap solution should be used so
that the film may be strong. This may
be accomplished by pouring little
grycerine into the solution.
Now take large dinner plate, and
pour the solution into it, to the depth
of about one-eighth of an inch. Then
place fiower-a rose, carnation, or
any other you choose-in the centre
of the plate, and over it place an
ordinary tin funnel.
Blow gently into the small end of
the funnel, and lift it slowly and
gradually at the same time. Keep on
blowing until a good-sized bubble has
formed and then gently disengage the
funnel. This may be done by turn
ing it ut right angles, but you must
be very careful to avoid breaking the
bubble.
When the funnel his been Olsen
gagged there will be large bubble on
the plate, in the centre of which is
the flower and those who did not see
the bubble blown will wonder how the
flower got there.

How to Raise Rabbits.

Wild rabbits are much more intelli-
gent than others, and if you get one
or two wild baby Dummies and feed
them on milk they will soon get quite
tame.
Bunnies should have their coats
brushed every day, just like you have
your hair combed and brushed, for 1t
makes their fur grow and keeps it soft
and shiny.
Bran, grain, peas, parsley, carrots,
turnip tops and few cabbage leaves
are the things that rabbits like to
eat, and dish of clean water should
always be kept in the hutch.
The Dummies should be allowed to
run about outside their hutch for half
an hour every day, and only one fam
lily at time, or else, l am sorry to
say, there1l be ructions, as rabbits are
rather naughty about fighting
A good hutch can easily be made
from a grocer's box, by covering the
open front with some wire netting and
making little door.
The hutch should be raised a
few inches from the ground, and holes
bored In the bottom for drainage.
Line 1t with plenty of clean straw, and
in wet or cold weather bunny's house
should have cloth thrown right over
1t at night to keep it warm. Keep
the hutch very clean.

from which you let two or three per-
sons draw cards. They should not sit
too closely together, however, lest one
should see the cards drawn by the
others. They note their cards and re-
place them in the pack. You turn, and
while pretending to look through the
pack, you take two other cards which
you must have at hand, place with
them card out of the pack, and ap-
proach those persons who have drawn
cards, asking each if his card is not
among the three. On receiving an
answer in the affirmative you point
