GRAIN AND PRODUCE MARKET
Continued Dry Weather the Only sus-
tanning Power.
MARKET DULL, VALUES NARROW
Increased Demand for wheat at OPEN
ing Eased Toward Close, while
Corn Ruled steady on
Local Trade.
OMAHA, Aprn IS, 1908.

OMAHA April Is, 1903.
Grain markets extremely dull and values
ruled narrow. Weather condluons are
ruling the situation and continued dry
weather seems TO be the only sustaining
power and is offset by very favorable pros
poets in all other respects. Light receipts
on one side are equally balanced on the
other side by a very small demand.
Wheat opened with the local crowd bull
ish on the continued lack of rainfall and
some increased demand. On a short rally
selling soon filled the demand and values
gradually eased off toward the close. May
wheat opened at S9sc and closed at 90Ac.
Corn ruled steady on some local trade,
but soon dulled down, with no feature to
the market; receipts continue light and
cash demand only fair. May corn opened
at 6l&c and closed at 6lAc.
oats held steady but featureless and
values unchanged. May oats opened at
49Ac and closed at 49Ac.
Primary wheat receipts were 205,0O0 BUSH
els and shipments 166 900 bushels, against
receipts last year OF $50 OOO bushels and
shipments OF LII. 900 bushels.
Corn receipts were 134,000 Bushels and
shipments 392 900 bushels, against receipts
last year of $4,000 bushels and shipments
of $4,000 bushels
Clearances were 1900 bushels of corn,
5000 bushels of oats, and wheat and flour
equal to 900 bushels.
Liverpool closed hdssd higher on wheat

ISIS Perkins" at the Opera House.

Fashions change in the theatre Just
as they DO in the dry goods store and
millinery shop. One form Of entertain
ment is the fad for few weeks and
then another springs up to take It's
place. Foolish farce. inane musical
comedy and sensational plays OF the
slu@3s are each popular in their turn for
a time and then cease to attract the
public. But there is style Of enter
tainment Of which the patrons Of the
theatre never seems to tire-the drama
which tells a story of life as it is, not
all tears, but happy blending Of the
two. 1t makes little difference where
the scene of the play is laiG, whether in
quiet country lanes or on the busy city
pavements, if it possesses true human
interest, if the characters represent
real men and women, with their Joys
and sorrows, their struggles and tri-
umphs, it will live long after the shows
which offer only gaudy scenery, fashy
dresses and dismal jokes are forgotten.
Plays ike Way Down East, " In Old
Kentucky" and Shore Acres" will
never wear out, and the management Of
Sis Perkins, ~ which will be seen at
Oakland Opera House on Monday, next,
claim that its merits place it in this
class. The central character is true to the
soil and may be found in every village
in the land. Uncouth, careless in dress
and manner, yet inherently good and
noble and true, she shows the qualities
of mind and heart that are lacking in
many of ter fashionable sisters.
