Americans had to make prices unaided

as confident as ever that no big adj

New York, May 23.-The improve
ment which set in after the publication
! of the bank statement on SATURDAY..
was continued in today's market tcr
stocks, which doubtless caused by
| short covering. it eXemplifies the fact
| that the market is and has been 1tl
some time largely oversold, and thu
| technical position is such as to wal
rant a further advance The attention
of all wheat traders is now attracted
to the wide movements IN the May
options, and the later options fo(oW
the lead of May, more or less closely.
Today's market was fairly active, tut
prices after advancing in the morning
hours, declined later showing Il loss
of / ga cents for May and about g
half a cent a 'bushel for the July op-
tons. Provisions were firmer than foI
some time past and lines of pork lard
and ribs were accumulated during he
first hour.
Weather prospects are decidedly
more favorable, and it would appear
to be advisable to sell the fall months
at present levels The local market roI
cotton opened at a decline of about 5
points, and therefore became decided
ly weak but later rallied smartly tn
der manipulation of July, which car
ried that option well above IS Genus
On the recent declines there has be2r
more inquiry from spinners, and spot
markets have shown rather more &C.
tivity. While we look for some furth-
er manipulation in the old crop posi-.
tons, we still think that the new crol
months can be sold to advantage
Preparations are being made for a rec
ord- breaking crop and with favorable
weather conditions, the present higl
prices for cotton are liable to be a re
membrance Of the past

f'he wedding of Miss Anita Christal
and Major w. A. Purdy of Honolulu
was celebrated on Wednesday night at
the Paulist Church, the Rev. Father
Wynan officiating.
Miss Christal is a beautiful girl, tall,
well featured and stunning, and is the
daughter of DR.. Christal of Santa Cruz
he who for some years was in charge
of the State HospiJai at Agnews.
The pretty bride was the grand
daughter Of the well-known Italian ca
pitalist, a. Crescent of Santa Cruz, who
bequeathed her something like s100 eco
to be paid to her on her wedding day.
And thus has the eventful day arrived.
Her meeting with Major Purdy came
about while on visit to the Campbells
of Honolulu, the daughters of whose
household she met while a student at
Notre Dame at San Jose.-Call, July 81.

TRICKS OF GROUSE
TO EVADE HUNTERS

The grouse has a hundred tricks OF
defence. 1t will lie still until the hun
ter is within a yard of it. then soar
straight upward in his front, towering
like a woodcock; again, it will rise
forty yards away, and the sound of
its wings is his only notice of it's pres
ence. 1t will cover upon a branch I'M
der which he passes. and his cap will
be not more than a foot below it as he
goes, and though it has seen him APP
preaching it will remain quiescent in
fear until his back is turned 1t will
rush then, and when he has Slowed
himself hurriedly around he will catch
only a glimpse of brown, broad wing
far away.
Wounded and falling in the open, it
will be found-if it is found at all
with the telltale speckles of it's breast
against the trunk of some brown tree
against which its feathers are indis-
tinguishable, and the black ruff about
the neck of the male will be laid
against the darkest spot of the bark
Often it will double like a fox: often
as man draws near it will spring noise
lessly into some spruce and hide until
he passes, dropping then to the ground
and continuing its feeding; often, too.
it VIII decline to take wing, though
unhurt, and will run fast for half a
mile-so fast that the most expert
woodsman will be unable to keep pace
with it. This it will only do on leafy
ground and never when snow would
betray its tracks.-Outing.

HILO, August 5.-In connection with
the idea of making but one county OF
the island of Hawaii, r. a. Lyman, one
of sHilo's oldest and best-posted resi-
dents, has suggested that a road be
built between the two mountains-Ma-
una Loa and Mauna Kea-continuing
the Kaumana road out of Hilo and, tap
ping Humuula sheep station, running 10

be considerable but it would be fully
made up by the increased value of the
lands. 1t would mean that Hawaii
could offer inducements to settlers to
come here from the mainland and take
up land a portion of the land is adapt
ed to the cultivation of cereals and
fruits of all kinds and there are spots
that are suitable for the cattle men who
may desire to locate here and take up
the government land that will be
thrown open by the construction of the
road"
Including in the route stretches of ex-
listing roads that might be utilized, it is
estimated that 70 miles of new road
would have to be built. A rough plan
of the road will likely be prepared for
the information of the Legislature Mr..
Lyman thinks that successive Legisla-
lures would appropriate money for the
work. Kamehameha V. wanted a road
built on the same route, but his Minis
ter of the Interior, DR.. Hutchinson, pre-
vented it.

many events in the history of the cap
ital. 1t was formerly supposed that
il passed through the middle of the
Forum, but the excavations which
Commentators Boni recently made
have proved that it ran along the
northern side tracing a lline which
started from the Arch OF Septimus
Sevcrus and passed in front of the
Basilica Aemilia and the adjoining
Temple OF AntoniuE and Faustina,
therefore skirting the coiOnnade whose
remains are visible in the engraving.
The actual pavement of the ancient
avenue lies. however, far below the
level Of the present ground. At the
corner OF the Basilica Of Constantine
dying further back OF the Templel a
considerable portion Of the old pave
ment has been discovered. 1t is formed
Of large polygonal slabs of basaltic
lava The pavement which has been
uncovered so far lies about eight feet
below the ground level and is in a
good state of preservation, with the
blocks well joined together.-Scieni-
