To us the grandest, the lovliest
thing N all the wide world is old
age, meekly wearing it's crown of
glory; peacefully locking back
over life we'll spent, joyfully
hoping for a sure reward in the
mystic beyond We always feel a
childish desire to nestle at the
feet of such a one, listen TO the
holy words of faith and hope and
love that fall from their lips,
hoping the while that some little
portion of their wisdom and good
ness, perchance may fall on us.

Give truthful answer. And the next
Is last and narrowest-Is it kind.

Then you may tell the tale nor fear
What the result of speech may be.

PACIFIC COAST WHEAT CROP.

Portland, Ore, Sept. 9.-E w. Wright, commercial editor of "The Or egonian," who has just completed a trip of 2,0O0 miles through the wheat districts of Oregon, Washington and IdahO, estimates the wheat crop of the three states for the cereal year of 19O4-'C5 to be 45,1COOCO bushels. This compares with a crop of 34,7S5, GOO bush els last year, 41,G00,0CO bushels in 1902 and 46,6O0,00 bushels in 1901, the latter being the record crop for the three states. The turnout as now estimated by MT. Wright is fully five million bushels under the, yield indicated a short time before the harvest, the de- crease being due to dry weather and frost. The average is larger than ever before, and with an average yield equal to that of 1901 would have produced a crop of 55,OOO, 900 bushels.

COLLECT ONLY MARKET PRICE

Chicago, Sept 9.-According to q le- cision rendered today by Judge Chy traus of the superior court, board of trade operators who succeed in ensin- eering a "corner' in wheat, corn or other commodities in which transac- tions are made on change, have no right to compel payment of the ma1ip ulated price, instead of the actual val ue of the commodity at the time fixed for the setting of trades. The case was that of number of firms and in dividuals against board Of trade opeE- ators and the Bank of Montreal, in which the bank tied up nearly half a million dollars. This money represent- ed the difference between the price for July oats, 1902 which was demanded by. the manipulators of the "squeeZe" and the actual market price.
