The market steadied around S.4S for
January and 1863 for May, but showed
comparatively little buying power as offer.
ings seemed to increase on every little
bulge. and sentiment around the ring was
bearish on talk of free southern offerings
and slack trade demand.

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

CHICAGO, December 14-Renewed prof
it taking by leading holders caused weak
ness today in the local wheat market
After opening at 1864 to 1O6. May touch
ed 1O6M but eased off to 1868.
May corn opened unchanged to shade
higher at 61ha61h. sold at 61ka61ss, and
then declined to 61Aa81as.
May oats opened unchanged to shade
higher at 5211 to 521aa525s. sold at 525sa
52A, and then eased of to 523sa521s.
Provisions opened 2h lower to 21sc
higher.
The wheat market was subjected to
heavy selling pressure the greater part
of the day. The low point for the May
delivery was reached at 1913. There
was some recovery late in the day, but
the close was weak, with May down Ia
at 1.NHa1.O5.
The corn market displayed considerable
firmness during the last half Of the day
owing to buying of an influential char
acter based on an improved demand for
the cash grain by shippers. The close
was steady; with May up y at 6lhz.

the Supreme Court at Washington today
that he had always been confident of
such an outcome. Personally. he said,
he had never had any objection to an

If 1t had been proper. but his relation
to his corporations forbade his disclosing
their condolences except in a lawful way.

CARE OF HOUSE PLANTS.

Don't be afraid to scrub the plants
brought in for the winter. With a
brush, water, soap and an infusion OF
tobacco every leaf and stem should be
scrubbed to remove insects. The bath
room spray is excellent to use in the
rinsing, which should be thorough.
A frequent drenching and occasional
meals of flower food will make up to
the plants for the loss of outdoor life
and they will repay with vigorous
growth and bloom during the winter
months American Home Monthly.

HOW TO FOLD THE WASH.

III u
If articles of clothing, household
linen and underwear are properly
folded the ironing will be. found much
easier Spread perfectly clean cloth
on the clothes basket and put all
articles Of the same kind together.
Spread the articles to be dampened
on the table, one piece at a time.
Sheets, pillow cases, towels and
plain underwear should be dampened
slightly, if at ALL Tablecloths. nap
kins and all starched things should
be made very damp. A great deal OF
time is saved and the work will look
much better if the articles are folded
perfectly even when dampened Put
all hens, selvages and corners to-
gether and fold.
Roll starched clothes in cloth.
Now pack all neatly in the basket and
if the ironing is not to be done until
the next day cover them closely with
a cloth. Colored clothes should not
be sprinkled until an hour or two be-
fore they are to be ironed.
The most satisfactory way to
sprinkle clothes is to use very hot
water and a whisk broom.
Iron the plain clothes and large
pieces first, as constant use makes the
irons smooth and the starched clothes
will iron nice if the irons are smooth.
HINTS FOR NEEDLEWORKERS.
A deep ruff1e added to the lower
edge of the bingham aprons used in
the kitchen is great protection. So
many grease spots seem to get on the
bit of the dress showing below the or
binary apron.
Shirt waists that wear through in
the back between the shoulders while
the fronts are still good, may be re-
newed by having new backs put in.
In the same way sleeves that go
through are renewed, and thus the
usefulness of embroidered and lace
trimmed fronts is prolonged for many
months
The best method of putting on fas-
teners is to sew them strongly to a
stout piece of silk tape, hemming
these strips of tape closely to opening
after all the pressing is done. The
fasteners are apt to make shiny places
when pressing is done after they are
in place.
When the belt is of silk it should
be cut on the straight goods, usually
two and one-quarter inches longer
than the size of the waist. This al
lows for seams and the lap. The
widths vary; very narrow for. stout
person, not more than half-inch wide
when finished, whereas slim person
may have one an inch wide when
finished.

MILES SCHAEFER WALKED

NEW YORK. March e2.-Jacob Schae-
fer, the wizard of the green cloth and
the shining ball, the father of the pre-
sent game of billiards as played by the
experts in championship competitions,
grew reminiscent the other day.
Il wonder" said the man who has
held more championships than any
other professional billiardist that ever
lived, how many persons there are in
the world who really have an idea OF
the amount OF hard mental and physi-
cal labor that must be undergone to
become billiard champion. Sometimes
have thought that If. when first be-
gan to play billiards in Cleveland with
some success. had know what would
have to go through, there would never
have been Jacob Schaefer champion.
Still. I presume that should have con-
tinued In the game.
Can you imagine that I have spent
almost half of my life with billiard
cue in my hand? Everybody knows
how old I am. and don't propose to
say anything in regard to that. but, for
instance. what would you think OF

THE ORIGIN OF THE GAME OF BASEBALL

which we are indebted to A. G. Spald-
ing, appears a circumstantal state
ment by reputable gentleman, ac-
cordlng to which the first known dia-
gram Of the diamond, i.dicating posi-
lions for the players, was drawn by
Abner Doubleday in Cooperstowli N.
Y, in 1889. Abner Doubleday subsc-
quently graduated from West Point
and entered the regular army, where.
as captain of artillery, he sighted the
first gun fired on the Union side (at
Fort Sumter) In the Civil War; Later
still, as major general he was In COM
mand of the Union army at the close;
of the first days fight In the battle
OF Gettysburg, and he died full OF
honors at Mendham, N. j., in 1898.
I'm the days when Abner Doubleday
attended school In Cooperstown it
was a common thing for two dozen or
moro of school boys to join in game
OF ball, Doubtless, as In my later en-
periencc, collisions between players In
attempting to catch tho batted ball
We're frequent. and injury due to this
cause, or to the practice OF putting
out the runner by hitting him with
the ball, often occurred
II can well understand how the or
derly mind of the embroyo West
Pointer would devise scheme for
