Curious Thing in Corn.

IN spite of generally bullish Senti-
ment in the corn pit the market was Il
little easier, influenced by the break in
wheat. The opening was strong en-
higher cables and on the unfavorable
weather. but when wheat started on it's
downward course the selling in corn
became quite pronounced and the mar
ket was unable to resist the strain and
prices eased off but steadied a little
under yesterdays final figures, the
close being easy, with May lac lower
at ~ l-Sc, after selling between AZ and
~ f-Sc. Local receipts were 27S cars,
two of contract grade.
oats were active and firm early in
the session, but weakened in sympa-
thy with other grains and closed cas-
Ter. with May IA and 3-8c lower at
"a 6-Sc, after ranging between "a 1-2
and 35 and 80 1-8c Commission houses
were good sellers and some of the
leading shorts bought. Local receipts
were 237 cars.
There was a good trade in provi-
sions' and the undertone was firm, OPEN
ing prices being strong on smaller re-
celpts of hogs and an advance of from
3 to 1Oc at the yards. Later there was
some realizing in a general way in
sympathy with the easier tone in
grains and the price declined some
what but the close was steady Nav
pork closed lie lower, at 1885,
May lard was 1-2c higher, at $10.15 and
ribs off 1-2c, at 1892 IL.
The estimated receipts for Monday
are Wheat, so cars; corn, 260 cars;
OATS 210 cars, and 10000 head of hogs.
The leading futures ranged as follows:

SHARP WHEAT DECLINE
SCATTERED SELLING BY TIRED
HOLDERS THE CAUSE OF 1T
Extreme Bearishness Pervades the
Observation-Disclosures Rules Through
Most of the Session-Corn Easier in
Spite of BuiIish Sentiment.

! CHICAGO, March 7.-Extreme bear
ishness pervaded the wheat pit today
ana the market experienced a sharp
decline, May closing l 1-8 and 1 1-4c
lower. May corn was off lac and cats
were down Ia and 3-8c. Provisions
closed about steady, the May product
being from 2 lie lower to z lie
higher
Scattered selling by tired holders on
market that lacked any signs of sup
port was the cause of a severe set
back in the price of wheat and the
market ruled decidedly weak the en-
tire session with the exception OF a
temporary tirmness at the start, due to
firm cables and the strength In corn.
May opened unchanged to 1-Sc higher
at IS to rs 1-Sc, but the firmness was
only momentary and Influenced by
mild weather throughout the whole
winter wheat belt, with no signs of
much colder weather in sight and with
prospects of bearish statistics Mon
day, the selling became quite general
and prices decliped rapidly, with now
and then a short halt due to covering
py shorts. Weakness in outside mar
kets also aided in the decline. The
bottom was reached at IA 5-Sc and the
close was "A "a and 73 7-Sc, a net loss
of l is and 1 Lie.
Clearances of wheat and flour were
equal to 21S,000 bushels. Primary re-
ce1pts were 1880 bushels, against
43I,50O bushels a year ago. Minneapo-
lis and Duluth reported receipts Of
282 cars, which, with local receipts Of
81 cars, one of contract grade, made
total receipts for the three points of
SI5 cars, against 314 cars last week and

but by securing a high grade Of Il ~
! classes Of stock 30 that in the future

a large tract Of land on the Gravois
SOU utheast Of Versailles, was here sev.
eral days this week aud purchased
forty.two head Of young heifcrs and

Legcre has also placed on his farm II
herd Of Ane hogs and intends later on
to add "A herd of mules TO his stock
and expects to make this one of the
largest and best ranches in this par,
of the state.
Perry Moore living northeast of Yer
sailles this week shipped in fine 10,
Of steers from Kansas City, which
were selected through Marvin Bruce
the stockman in that city, and which
Mr. Moore has turned out on his pas.
ture.
w. Il. Wilmington of Crawfords-

his herd in the near future.
Most of these are new entries ia the
stock arena, while there are numerous
other stockmeu who are changing into
finer and better breeds gradually, and
who already have some fine stock com

The second year Of the war, 1889,
Mrs. Golden left Linn Creek and took
up her home in Illinois, but after Il
few years came back 10 Missouri and
has lived in this and adjoining coun.
ties ever since.
Mrs. Music has spent her whole life
In Miller and Morgan counties, two OF
her daughters being the wives Of Geo.
and Perry Huff, who live four miles
south of Versailles.
Their meeting was purely accidental
and brought about through neighbors
in the vicinity, but after the two had
related incidents Of their early lives
they soon found that all details COM
pared accurately, and for three hours
these two old landmarks stood with
their feeble hands on each others
shoulder and with tear.stain ned cheeks
recalled events in their girlhood which
were yet fresh in their memories, II

painter. There was first Joy, then sor-
row, then deep and pathetic express
sion lighting up their wrinh!cd coun
tenances--yet Happiness mingled
with surprise that betokened a re.
ncwal Of girlish fricndship-though
both realized that their sojourn on
earth must be Of short duration. They
separated in tears, but declared that
they would have another meeting If
Providence did not ordain IL other
wise.

Who's Who IN America.

A study of "Who's Who in America"

school increases his chances four times,
in a high school 81 times and in II col
lege ZOO times.

best, both in cost of living and in edu-
cational facilities. Write for catu
