One of the great features of the day was the broader foreign element in our market. The settlement which has just begun indicated only a small account in American and such easy contango rates that jobbers were inclined to ad-

On April 10 the crop of 5OOOOO, ,OOO bushels was worth $4O0 900 at soc. a bushel. To-day the estimated yield of 40O,000,000 bushels at an average of $1 has also a market value of $400,O0O, GOO. From the standpoint of the producer, therefore, no loss has occurred. With the consumer it is different for flour, one of the cheapest of the commodities for two years, has fallen in line with the long list of high-priced necessities. The loss of 1OO,OOO,OOO bushels also means quite an item to the railroads in freight revenues.

The reason generally offered for the firmness of Union Pacific was that the underwriting syndicate naturally want ed to make a success of the new $75,- 000,0OO convertible bond issue, and 1t was for its interest to put up the stock. It was pointed out that the syndicate receives its commission of per cent. on every bond sale; that if peradven- ture, 1t could put up the price of the stock much above the parity at which the subscribers could convert their bonds and cause them to seek a higher level. That Union Pacific held so firm ly in the face of a , cent rise in wheat was regarded as indicating that the market had been sold to a standstill

Undoubtedly yesterdays frantic rush of outside spectators into the Chicago wheat pit, forcing the price up cents bushel in almost as many minutes, and driving itspast the dollar-mark for the first time since the partial crop failure of 1904, was reckless and extra vagant. Markets which move in this way are often headed for chaos.
 One thing to be remembered is that, although last years consumption of American wheat has never but twice been exceeded in history yet the amount left in the American farmers hands. at the opening of last March, was 47,- 241, ,00O bushels greater than year be- fore, and 95,5S9,O0O above March l. 1905, reaching an aggregate never matched in the history of the trade, and this years crop may yet turn out not so bad after all

vague, faith in God.
Men believe that back of all
things is God. So in the crisis of
life, when the test comes we all
turn to Him, who is the change
less One. Near us in the shadow
He is ever standing, and we ex-
pect to find his helping hand
where we cannot see.
We believe that God is, in some
respects, like ourselves. There
fore, we turn to Him and address
Him, not as a dog comes to its
master, but as a child comes to a
father.
We believe that God is near to
us. Did you ever hear of one who
feared that the Almighty might
be far away in time of need? We
may distress ourselves lest our
physician may not be within call
in some time of need; but we do
not worry lest our God be in a
foreign land when we call.
We believe that God is our
Father. Many hesitate to say
that He is Father to more than a
select few, but is He not Father
to all? That boy in the far
country of forgetfulness was still
a son. Many sons are yet wan
derers from their home-place in
Gods love, while Our Father is
in all ways trying to help them to
come home because they are his
children. Shall we not come home
and abide there?

The annual ball of Grays Harbor
Lodge No. 593, b. P. o. E., at Keithe

doubt THE social function OF the season

one Of pleasure, and from beginning to
end all thoroughly enjoyed the evening.
Heretofore the Elks have imported
music for their annual balls, but on this
occasion the orchestra Of Prof. Gylfe was
engaged, and it is safe assertion to
state that no finer music was ever pro.
duced from instruments in Aberdeen.
