Chicago, July 25.-Cables were a frac-

wheat opened lower with September down

local receipts of 80 cars, 26 of contract
grade, made total receipts for the three
points Of 246 cars, against 221 last week

SOME INTERPRETING ESSAYS

LONDON daily Chronicle.
Perhaps nothing is more difficult than to
say exactly what we mean. A teacher of
composition in private school. who re-
allied this, has lately been trying the ex-
pertinent Of making her pupils write any
thing they like about a given subject in a
given time, generally about five minutes;
and some Of the results have been most
enlightening. One Of the subjects was
wind" for example. and here Is one, Of
the answers: There are four winds, north
east, south and west; but sometimes two
of these blow at the same time, and then
we get s.. w. or N e. wind" Another was
at least topical: wind Is an abominable
element. It blows off peoples hats and
uproots trees. But it Is very useful for
yacht races"
The subject "Jirn' was equally inspir-
ing, judging by the remarks written on It,
house." wrote some one, "and some peo-
pie eat 1t at every meal Some jams are
sticky" We should rather like to hear of
the jam that Is not sticky. Another subject
that provoked the same simple directness
was ireland" More eloquent than the
eloquence Of a whole Gaelic league was the
delightful sentence: 1.-THE Irish were con-
quered by the English In days of old, and
have been annoyed about it ever since"
We cannot help recalling after this a
charming passage in a forgotten lesson
book, 1.-THE Child's Guide to Knowledge"
relating to thunderstorm. This is what
it enjoined: ''Pu11 down the blinds, draw
your bed to the middle Of the room, lie
down and commit yourself to God"

sIOUm CITY LIVE STOCK. July Is
Receipts Of cattle at this market fall 800
short of last week. but the decrease Is due
mostly to the decrease in the southern cat
tie run. Cattle actually on sale this week
foots up 2.400 against $500 last week. The
larger share of the supply run to stockers,
altho there was liberal marketing of kill
ers on the market. The stocker trade started
out with the dealers being liberal buyers
for the available offerings, but the market
cases the undesirable cattle were quoted
lower. Very few country buyers put in an
appearance and the trade became worse as
the week advanced and Notwithstanding the
more limited marketing of cattle, all grades,
at the close of the week were quoted quar-
ter lower than the best time of last. The
most of the orders on hand have been filled.
