A Struggle with English.

American tourists abroad often COM
ment upon the literal translation into
English of notices in foreign languages.
The well meant efforts of landlords and
others to convey in the language of the
visitor the meaning of the native often
produce laughable results.
A Washington citizen found this no
tice posted in his room in an Alpine
hotel:
''Misters, the venerable voyagers are
earnestly requested not to take clothes
of the bed to see the sun rise for the
color changes" Washington Star.

Not Very Shy.

At the end of last weeks labors
AS sat within my room
reading news from good old Greeley
There found queer, queer tune.
About the water in Dakota
Minnewaken, Indian name,
But translated into english,
DEVILS Lake is just the same.
By this lake there's fine country
Where hard wheat dotlf ever grow,
Twill be opened for HON esteads
just within q month or so.
There one gets home quite cheaply,
That produces the best wheat,
Sends the flour to good old Greeley
For our friend, down there to eat.
I'd suggest our friend in Greeley
Try to get some northern soil.
It's no worse to eat the Devil
Than to eat his broth, in toll.

Food Alters AnimnIs.

1t is surprising how circumstances al
ter animals. The savages of the ANA
ION region feed the common green par
rot for generations with the fat of GER
tain fishes, thus causing it to become
beautifully variegated with red and
yellow feathers. In like manner the
natives Of the Malay archipelago, by
a process of feeding, change the talka-
tive lory into the gorgeous king lory.

Then the Girls Giggled.

A bashful young minister was once
asked to preach before the students of
Wellesley college. His embarrassment
when he entered the dining room Of
College hall for breakfast Sunday
morning and found himself the only
man among $50 girls was overwhelm-
ing. He was asked to say grace and
hastily delivered himself of the follow
ing: 30 Lord, bless this food for our
use, and may this meat make us all
strong menv'-Good Housekeeping.

Brutaliy Tortured.

A case came to light that for per-
sistent and unmerciful torture has
never been equaled. Joe Golobick, of

matism and nothing relieved me
though / tried everything known. /
came across Electric .Bitters and it's
the greatest medicine on earth for that

Liverpool Was Down lad, Yet
the Report Put America Up
&c All Around.
Al Final Total of 12S,000,ooo
Bushels Spring Wheat for
the Three States.
Primary Receipts Were Larger
but Minneapolis Receipts
Rather Light.

MINNEAPOLIS Chamber OF commerce.
Ang. 29--Wheat opened strong this morn
ing and advanced steadily thru the niss
hour gaining cents all around. Deceh.-
be-, soon sold to Sill, and May, against
S1s115s Saturday, was up to SLIPS. Inc
Iohas repOrt came out and lifted the mar
ket and held it steady against pressure.
MANY figured that a break would follow
the report They had it in mind that
when the Jones estimate of year ago
was given out the immediate result was
break, Notwithstanding the report was
british and was really the thing that
woke Chicago up to the northwest STU
alton. AS will be remembered, Mlnneap-
oils wheat then in the eighties, sold to
S1.O6 eventually. AT the time OF issuance
of the Jones report it was the old story
off great influence operating lnversely
ins immediate effect-but asserting itself
very forcbly in the long run. So 1t had
been figured again that if the report of
today was bullish, and even should 1t
define condition making for legitimate
strength over a. long period. there would
be so many market followers anxious to
secure profits that a sag would be first
showing. This sort of reasoning naturally
bought a flood of wheat on the market
from people who sized it up as good for
asquick smash and then a long, strong
pail. Disappointment was in store for
these traders, for the market not only
held it's own but continued making steady
gains.
Zones sa VS. the three states-Mtnnesota,
North and South sDakota-have raised
12S. 900 900 bushels of spring wheat and
10000, 900 bushels of macaroni wheat For
the entire country, he estimates a COM
bined spring and winter wheat yield Of
564 600 900 bushels. This is against $780,
600 900 bushels last year and govern
ment estimate last year of 637 600, 900.
( aOther influences We're lost In the pre-
dominant Importance Of the Jones report,
and the fact that Liverpool was off IL a
1Ssd in early cables had no effect. The
trade is working more and more away
from Liverpool influence. While 1t is GER
tain that L1verpools Importance with ref
erence to export demand and the worlds
price of wheat is no whit lessened, the
trade Is leaning more to the view that
American influence is to lead for long
time yet; that we know what conditions
are where the wheat grows, and that we
can compel Liverpool to come to our
terms finally. even tho we may be out Of
line in prices at present.
Primary receipts ahead of year
ago lab, 900 bushels against 1,072 900.
4S4 Duluth only 20 cars against 80, and
2D1 900 bushels against $4,000. and ST.

UPWARD PRICES
ON WALL STREET
ST. PAUL FIGURES PROMINENTLY
IN TRADING OF THE FoREN ooN..
Very Heavy Dealings in Distillers Sc

noon.

New York, Aug. 29-Business for the

nessee Coal. Large buying orders came
into the market for Pennsylvania, Read
ing, Baltimore g. Ohio, the Pacit1cs, ST.,
Paul and United States Steel preferred.
Traders sold out on the opening rise
and prices reacted. ST. Paul losing rs.
After period of dullness and hesitation,
the market advanced again and recovered
to the opening range. A number Of low
priced minor railroad stocks We're con-
spicuously strong, notably Peoria & East
ern and Toledo, st. Louis q Kansas
City preferred, which advanced 2 and 5
points respectively. NORTHWESTERN also
sold up 2 and Hooking Valley 2A.
Trading became broader, stronger and
more active as the morning advanced.
Pool operators were resumed in certain
stocks and there was buying for both ac-
counts in all of the speculative favorites.
A rise of a point in st. Paul and Penn
sylvania stimulated quite an active de-
mand for other standard stocks. Very
heavy dealings appearedS1n< Distial erss Sc
curities, which advanced g points. Cen
eral Electric and Westinghouse Electric
moved up&214@21h points and there was a
quick jump in Sugar Of 111A. Fresh selling
the market fell off in sympathy, but rail-
lied again at noon when Union Pacific
was bid up to 1908. Bonds were steady
at noon.
Favorable reports from the crepSregions
and the substantial character Of the
mornings business influenced the further
rise in prices after midday. A great va
riety of stocks We're dealt in at material
improvements for a number of less known
properties. Reading, Union Pacific and
Atchison were bought heavily at improve
1nents of to liz and there was a jump
of 25s in New York Central.
Trading fell off greatly In the afternoon
and the market began to respond to the
proft-taking. Pennsylvania and the grain
carriers weakened slightly and hardened
again toward 2 o'clock. Hooking Valley
rose 4 in all and Toledo st. Louis &
Western preferred Az.
Renewed realizing in the final hour
made considerable inroads on the days
gains and forced some stocks below Sat
urday's close, notably United States Steel
preferred, Amalgamated Copper and
Brooklyn Transit. The selling was large
ly confined to the principal stocks. Sup
porting orders stiffened the market again
a tthe end and the close was steady.
