vance yesterday and our market fol-
lowed for while after the opening.
During the Gay there was some pres.
sure on the nearby futures, due to
some freer offerings Of new wheat,
but the far of months weer strong
and closed higher. ..sa.E4 = I
Some apprehension is being felt on
account of the continued wet wealth
er in the west. Other conditions re-
main unchanged. The European Wis
fble decreased 100000 bushels,
bringing it down to about the same
as last year. Reports indicate that
importing countries have light sup
plies and must continue buying. We
believe In higher prices, but the
movement Of the market may remain
within narrow limits for some time.

SOME RAILROAD "NEVERS."
Suggestions Designed to Decrease
Accidents.

The Southern Railway will within
the next few days post large pla-
cards at all points along it's route
calling the attention of the travelling
public to a number Of common sense
rules for the prevention of rail-
road accidents. The rules were for
mulated by the American Red Cross
Society, of which the following men
of national reputation are the chief
officers: William Howard Taft,
president; Robert w. de Forest,
vice president; Charles l.. Magee,
cesretary; Major Gen. George W.
Davis, United States army, chair
man Of the central committee. The
placards are about two feet in length,
by about one foot in width, being
printed in black and red ink. 1t is
hoped that the cardbOardS, tOgeth-
er with the numerous rules already
tackled at convenient places at every
station along the various routes Of
the Southern Railway, will materially
lessen the number of accidents due
to careessness on the part OF pas
sengers and those coming into daily
cOntact with railrods.
The following ''uevers" occupy a
prominent position on the card
boards:
Never cross railway at a grade
crossing before making sure that
no trains are approaching.
"Never jump on or off cars in
notion"
Never stand on the platform Of
cars in notion"
Never put head or other part Of
person out of car window"
Never cross in front or rear OF
standing or moving train without
first making sure that there is no
danger from some other train or
cause"
Never disobey the cautionary
rules for safety posted at stations.
crossings. etc"
Never forget that carelessness on
your part in regard to these precua-
tions not only endanger your life,
but the happiness and welfare Of
those most dear to you"
"Precaution Of accidents and in
juries by all legitimate means Is a
personal duty which everybody owes
not only to himself alone, but also
to his family"

A Social Gathering.

1t was pleasure to the writer,
also the young frolicing crowd of
the surrounding community, to meet
and enjoy ourselves at the home Of
Mr.. and Mrs. A. C. Smith Friday
evening, April 9th. The weather
was very favorable on, once again,
as we call Good Friday and in
vitations being extended quite early,
nothing but Il didn't want to go"
was the only excuse.
Although realizing that there was
a good time ahead, and being gov
erned by the above excuse, they
turned out freely, to accept their
portion of the pleasure that was due
them.
