His friend Jameson, is the opposite, and a
strong character. Three women appear
Antonio, Ludwiga and Deborah The
trend Of the story is determined by the
two first chiefly. Jameson and Julian are
both in love with Ludwiga, who, under
the fascination Of Jameson, who for the
first time In his life loves, is drawn to
him from Julian. but discovering, as he
believed, that she really loved Julian ne
battled with a case Of conscience and gave
her UP with a terrible heart-wrench, be-
cause he thought he was wronging his
friend. Then Antonio, who loved Jane

and her heart became stone, and then,
to cap the climax, the light-hearted Julian
married, cheerfully, another woman. The
last scene shows Ludwiga dying IN nos

real love is; when he felt keenly the need
of a woman's supporting love, he lost, II

MAN PARTS WITH EAR FOR $4,000
Two Volunteers Will be Chosen One
of Whom Will be Operated Upon.

NEW YORK, Nov. 13.-Dr. A. L.
Nelden has been the busiest man in
New York since early Monday MORN
ing. The sudden growth of his prac-
tice is due to an advertisement in
which he offered $4,000 for the right
ear Of a healthy male or female, with
certain stipulations as to curves, lobe
and size, as telegraphed to the Sun
day Times. DR.. Nelden desires to
graft this sort of ear to the side of
the head of a friend who lost an ear
in fight with a grizzly bear in Colo
RADIO.
Every morning since placing the ad-
vertisement the doctor has found on
opening the door of his office, a crowd
in the halls and on the steps. In all
DR.. Nelden has examined 700 persons
and out of this number only two were
selected as desirable subjects and upon
one of these will be performed the OPP
Grafton which will separate him from
his right ear and DR.. Nelden's client
from his $4,000.
All Sorts Of Applicants.
All sorts and conditions of men pre-
scented themselves. Among the callers
were four women. On was a pretty
blonde Swedish girl. but her ear was
not the right size. Another. with a
Roman nose and whose appearance in
Dictated better days, said that when a
member of a theatrical chorus she had
locf bor nd wi in
to part with the other.
One man had story of a fortune
lost in Wall street and a family stuff
ering for necessities.
Next came a man who was deaf in
his right ear. and he explained that he
ance were ruined.
Rise In the Ear Market.
AS the examinations proceeded the
market price for ears rose The first
man who presented himself with an
ear acceptable to the doctor wanted
$4,000 to submit to the operation.
BY noon Tuesday the market for
perfect right ears reached $4,000, be-
ing bulled to that point by dapper-
looking man who had an invention to
exploit.
The two men finally selected by the
doctor agreed to the stipulated price.
Today DR.. Nelden will begin the Op-
Grafton on one of the two men select
ed. The head of the purchaser will
be closely bound to the head Of the
right ear. One-half of the ear will
first be separated from the seller and
knit to it's proper place on the head
of the buyer. After a few days the
other half will be treated in a like
manner The two men involved in the
operation will have to lie on an es-
pecially constructed cot about two
weeks

WHEAT UNCHANGED
CHICAGO SHOWS STEADIER BUT
LOCAL AND LIVERPOOL
ARE OFF.
Dealers in Several Instances Say They
Do Not Care to Give Out
Quotations.

The Chicago speculative market
showed a better tone today although
there was no change in the local sit
uation and Liverpool showed a quarter
of pence lower than yesterdays
close. Local dealers in several in
stances refuse to make quotations.
Bluestem for export is worth in the
neighborhood of SO cents and club at
81 to IS cents, wheat on board cars.
Chicago opened weak at 1915 but on
lively trading and bullish news the
price showed steadier finally closing
at a half cent higher than the opening.
May wheat also advanced from 1915 to
1875. The Commercial Review pub
lished at Portland comments ON the
coast trade as follows:
Another dull and embarrassing week
has passed and very few sales have
been made. Sellers are very scarce
at present, as most of them will not
dispose of their holdings at ruling
figures and exporters are not in a po-
sitiOn to offer more, as foreign mar
kets are all very quiet. Russia and
Argentina are offering wheat a great
deal cheaper than the same can be
purchased on the Pacific coast. Ex-
porters have dispatched a number Of
vessels during the week with good car
goes. bearing out our former asser-
lions that there is plenty of wheat on
hand for all chartered tonnage, and the
same is meeting with prompt dispatch.
Millers are the principal buyers Of
wheat at present, and are in the mar
ket whenever they can secure a suit
able lot at reasonable figures, as they
cannot afford to pay any fancy prices,
for they are not receiving any too
much for the flour. California buyers
are in this market for wheat but are
not able to purchase freely, as prices
here are higher than the same can be
bought for in California. Exporters
are bidding for club wheat 75c, blue
stem 7Sc and 79c. and valley soc per
bushel.

FORGETS THE SIGN.
Lapse Of Memory Cost William Allen
Twenty-f five Dollars.

SEATTLE, Nov. 13.-William Allen
Of the Cow Butter store, placed on sale
chunk of process butter the
other day, and because he neglected
to place over the butter a sign indi-
eating that it was renovated butter"
he had to pay over $25 in good. hard
money in Justice Cams court.
Food Commissioner Mcdonald hap
pened into the store, sighted the pro-
cess butter, noted the absence Of the
sign, and forthwith decided that he
needed just one pound of that particu-
lar kind Of butter. Mrs. Allen sold
it to him, and with his evidence hugg-
ed to his bosom the food commission
er hurried down town to get a war
rant.
Mr.. Allen appeared in court with
bundle of signs he had taken down off
the walls of his store. He admitted
that the butter was process" butter
and did not deny selling it. He as
sured the court, however, that he had
a sign reading renovated butter
which had been on exhibition in his
store for six months past. To prove
it, he pulled forth the sign, and the
court examined it critically to make
sure that the letters We're one inch
wide and three inches high, as the
law directs.
Mr.. Aliens defense was that the
ion ba6 baap HING oyar tho cb,,,,ly of
process butter all right but that
when he moved the butter onto an
other table he neglected to move the
sign along with it. Just for that he
had to pay s25.
The court, with his head resting on
his hand pondered over the case. and
said he did not like to fine a man for
forgetting a little thing like that, but
the attorney for the state ruff1ed I'D
his hair. looked fierce, and roared out
| the law to the court at the top of his
voice.
The courts mind butted up against
| the smooth, hard surface of the stat
| Ute, and recoiled. I'll have to fine you
Mr.. Allen" said he, because the law
says so. I'll knock off the costs, though
1 wish I could cut this fine in half for
you, but it seems I can't"
Mr.. Allen suggested that he would
| be pleased to have the court cut the
| fine in half, and he waited around a
little while to have him do it. Let
| the fine stand" concluded the court,
Though it's a shame to do it"

MARTIN MAY ENTER POLITICS.
Coming ByeEIection In Vancouver, 3
c., May See Him Candidate.

Vancouver, B. c., Nov. 13.-Fighting
Joe Martin, who announced less than
a month ago that he had quit politics
for good, will very probably be back
in the struggle again by the end of
this week. Martin was defeated at
the general provincial election in this
city. and is no longer member of
Wilson, one Of the conservative elect
ed members from Vancouver. has been
appointed attorney general for the
province. Before he can accept office
with a salary he must return for re-
election in his constituency On We'd
ensday, November 49, the bye election
| comes off in Vancouver. Martini who
was formerly attorney general. wants
| to oppose Wilson, and if he can get
the consent and support of the Van
| couver Liberal Association, he will
run. Otherwise, Wilson will probably
! he returned by reclamation. Wilson's
| defeat would be a great victory for
| Martin and the liberals, if it could be
| accomplished. but the chances are
against it, judging from the results of
| the poll a month ago, when Wilson
| headed Martin by nearly 1000 votes If
| Wilson We're defeated, it would mean
a difference of two votes to the gov
eminent and the administration would
probably fall. Wilson is leader Of the
conservative party in the province.
