WHEAT SCARS ABOVE DOLLAR MARX

The widest wheat market in genera
ton was witnessed in Chicago Thursday.
From the opening tap Of the bell until
the gong at IL o'clock crowd OF Wild
eyed, shouting men pushed and iostled
and shouted and gesticulated. Out of it
first came small rise in the price, then
what looked like the beginning Of a SER
ious break, then a wild upward burst
which carried the price of May wheat to
$l.09 bushel; then reaction to fairly
steady close. 1t is said by best informed
grain men in Philadelphia that there
is not more than 1000 bushels OF winter
wheat in the city. AT this time in other
years at least 25, 900 bushels is usually in
sight. Dollar and twenty-five cent wheat
is now freely predicted with an advance
in flour Of 90 barrel. Since the steady
advance in wheat values, -four has moved
up in price fully 81 per barrel from the
lowest point. There is short supply OF
suitable milling wheat throughout the
United Kingdom and the demand for
American -four from abroad is beginning
to show more than ordinary activity.

We loved her, yes, we loved her,
But angels loved her more,
And she has safely joined them
On yonder shining shore.
The golden gates were open,
A gentle voice said come;
And with farewells unspoken
She calmly entered her eternal home.
BY HER HUSBAND.
When dark waves Of dependency
Across our spirits roll,
And bright-eyes hope no longer seems
To cheer our troubled souls;
When friends prove false and faith and
trust
Seem dead within our breast;
Al then we think of mothers love,
The truest and the best.
True as the never-failing stars,
Her faithful heart will prove
Oh What priceless treasure is
A mothers deathless love.
