JOSEPH DEERING
is FOUND GUILTY

Joseph Deering, the young man ar
rested on April IL. charged by his
former sweetheart, Annie Cilinski
with assault with intent to do great
bodily harm less than murder, was
found guilty by a recorders court
Jury, Thursday morning. and recon-
mended to the mercy OF the court.
The evidence against Deering was
purely circumstantial. No one saw
the assault. and even the young wo
man herself did not see him. as she
was struck down In the darkness OF
her own yard. DeerIng had stabbed
her once before and he was known
to be In the vicinity OF her home when
she was injured. Judge Phelan re.
manded Deering for sentence.

Furnished by Cameron Currie * Co.:
The market was strong In the early
dealings today but showed tendency
10 grow dull on the rally. II reacted
in the early dealings but since then has
again turned strong and has now once
more sold of again. In fact. IL has
shown but little tendency and the trad
ing he's taken on very professional
air. The early strength in Union Pa
cific was attributed 10 the report that
Hartman had made an arrangement TO
borrow $50. 900 at 3h per cent Tor
ties In the treasury. thus obviating the
necessity for floating any bond issue
at present. Shelters was the nrst
stock to show weakness and began TO
decline IN the face OF an otherwise
generally strong market The tone is
now soft and the market seems rather

NEW YORK. May 2S.-Almost the

with an improvement OF one point,

trading. the market was quiet with
en- uncertain tone.
The stock marked ruled generally
strong all through the first hour. In
the first half hour. prices advanced
from one TO two points In nearly all
the active issues, while gains were
made OF some amount in nearly every
thing traded In. The only prominent
exception was American Smelling.
which was an exception TO the general
weakness on the preceding day, Read
Ing and Union Pacific retained their
places as market leaders. being heav-
lily traded In from the beginning OF
business. A large part OF the buying
OF Reading up TO Ill was by Chisholm
& Chapman, but after their buying
orders were filed price moved UP TO
112, making q gain OF two points over
yesterdays close In the hour.
Northern Pacific. Great Northern
and 81. Paul all made gains OF over
one point and there was a continue
ton OF the bull manipulation In Ameri-
can Ice. A large part Of the business
at and for some time after the open
ing was Of purely professional
character. London did very little. The
chief market incentive on the bull
side was the passage Of the currency
bill by the house and press statements
predicting Its passage by the senate.
The room gossip included a report
that the Union Pacific had borrowed
$50 900 900 for nine months at 31a
per cent, obtaining the money from
various banking institutions on Joint
contract.

policies, the central idea Of which Is
to see to 1t that we have not only bet
ter crops. but also better, happier. more
contented and more efficient men and
women on the farm. Farm life ought
to be made so profitable and attractive
that the farmers boys and girls will
be ambitious to spend their lives on
the farm"
Henry Wallace. named by President
Roosevelt to serve on a commission to
investigate farming conditions in the
United States. Is heartily In sympathy
with the investigation.
"The farmers Of America" he said,
constitute the most important class Of
American citizens. They are the origi-
nal producers. and everything that per-
tains to farming is OF vital importance
to the future welfare and prosperity Of
the country. 1t is from this great
farming class that leaders in indus
trial, financial and political walks arise.
They are the basis OF our national
progress. Everything that can be done
for their welfare is for the future up
building Of America"

Soothing HE Father.

The father Of Sir Hubert Herkomer,
the great painter. was a poor man, and
the professor brought him from his
native land in Germany to live with
him in his beautiful house near Lon
don. The old man used to model In
clay In his early life, and now that he
han leisure he took to it again In his
old age. But his hands trembled. and
the work showed signs of lmperfec-
ton. 1t was his one sorrow. At night
he went to bed early. and when he
had gone his son would go into the
studio, take bis fathers poor work and
make II as beautiful as possible.
When the old man came down in the
morning he would look at the work
and rub his hands and say: "Ha!
can do as we'll as ever l did"
