 HER PECULIA-s EXCELLENCE.
 Miss Jane Austen, the English novel; ist, whose work Is valued to-day more than when 1t first appeared, in writing to her sister in 17sS. remarks: My moth CT desires me to tell you that I am a very good housekeeper. which I have no reluctance in doing because I really think 1t my peculiar excellence and for this reason: I always take care to pro- vide such things. as please my own ap- petite. which I consider as the chief merit in housekeeping" In her life of Jane Austen. Constance Hill quotes from MT. Austen Leigh, who declares that Miss Austen was successful in everything that she attempted with her fingers.
 Her needlework was exquisite. We have seen a muslin scarf embroidered by her In a satin-stitch and have held in our hands tiny housewife of fairylike pro- portions, which Jane worked at the age of 16 as a gift for a friend It consists of narrow strip of lowered silk, em- broidered at the back. which measures four inches by one and a quarter, and is furnished with minikin needles and fine thread. At one end there is a tiny pocket. containing some verses in diminutive handwriting with the date, "Jan'y, 1792. ''
 MT. Austen Leigh writes: None of us could throw spilikins in so perfect a circle, or take them off with so steady a hand. Her performances with the cum and ball were marvellous. She has been known to catch the ball on the point above hundred times in succession"
 She did not give up the activities and pleasures of everyday life in order to write of the pleasures of other people. and Aunt Jane" was the delight of a large circle of nephews and nieces.-An Exchange.

Chicago Grain and Provisions.

CHICAGO. Nov. 27.-Rains. in Argentina with resulting crop damage reports were the chief factor in advancing the price of wheat today. although the news fin general was bull ish and contributed to a strong close, May be- ing up i@ih. May corn closed A9stc higher. oats were up A and January provisions closed from Sc higher to 25c lower.
 Small receipts in the Northwest, higher ca- bles and unfavorable weather in Argentina caused strength in wheat at the opening, May being up AQsSc to h@%c at 79A@7s%. While there was not much wheat offered early in the day there was good demand from local traders and prices held firm until toward the noon hour when liberal selling by commission houses caused an easier tendency and May de- clined to 799s. An increased demand developed in the latter part of the day with shorts ac- tive buyers. Commission houses were also on the buying side and the leading bull operator added to his big line With comparatively small offerings the market advanced and the closing figures were at the top, May being up lqiM at 9ok, gain of &c. Clearances of wheat and flour were equal to SEA, 100 bushels. Primary receipts were l.6oe. 900 bushels, against 2. 1 20 900 bushels a year ago. Bradstreets exports of wheat and flour for the week were 3.95i ,ooo against 4, 80, GOO last year. Minneapolis. Duluth and Chicago report last week and 2, l75 cars a year ago.
 Corn ruled firm on the strength in wheat, higher Liverpool cables and the poor condi- tion of the new corn which Is coming In. There was some covering by local shorts and a scat tered demand from commission houses, but the volume of business was small. Selling by longs had a steadying effect. After selling between 4l7s and 42h May closed A9%c higher at 42. December was Ac higher at 4IMG42. Local receipts were 203 cars with of contract grade.
 Oats were strong along with other grains, but trading was dull. Local bears showed no dis position to sell and the leading longs were not inclined to do much business. May closed hc higher at 35% after ranging between S5M and 36h. Local receipts were I4l cars.
 Provisions were firm at the start due to strong grain markets and higher prices for hogs. but the opening advance did not hold as liberal offerings from packers soon caused a reaction. Trading quiet the latter part of the day with prices steady at the decline. Jam uary pork closed 25c lower at SIo.75, January lard was off Sc at S622h, while ribs were up Sc at S5.7o

There can be no possible mistaking what their de- cision will be, and labor unions will have only their own leaders to blame for the result. This is still a free country. and the people have not the slightest idea of turning it over to the rule of any class, whether that class be under or upper It is time for plain speaking and more honest dealing with this mat ter, and this is the only way in which the Citizens Industrial Association of America will handle it."
