]. Wallingford Speed of Yale, near
athlete, provides much of the fun in the
farce. On western ranch he poses as
a champion sprinter. thinking that he will
advance in the affections of young miss
who declares that she simply idoliZes''
athletes. Instead of simply posing
Speed finds himself accepted by the cow
boys at his own valuation and is induced
to challenge the champion of a rival
ranch.
Speed does SO, thinking that his chum,
the real champion of Yale, will be at the
ranch in time to run the race for him.
A rival Of Speeds, however, instills the
spirit of mistrust in the minds Of the
cowboys. and they take personal charge
of the training" of young Mr.. Speed. with
the result that that gentleman is given
a few of the most strenuous days of his
life. Ice-cold showers and a diet of raw
meat, onions and raw eggs, administered
at the point of dangerous-l looking gums"
keep Speed in trouble most of the time
until the arrival of his cnum.
This worthy, however. has managed to
break his foot in a railway accident. and
the Yale boy is forced to line up at the
mark to run the race or admit himself a
we'll as the anger Of the cowboys, who
have bet their all upon him. OF course
the bluffing hero finally gets out of his
predcament.

 Corn and oats also made substantial gains, but provisions were weak.
 Possible delay to harvest operations owing to wet weather was the chief factor in creating a strong market in the wheat pit. The Weather Bureau announced that scattered showers had occurred during the last forty-e eight hours in the Middle, Western and Southern States. and ps$dlcted addi- tional rain for a large part of the winter wheat belt in the next twenty four hours. The market had become oversold to a large extent during the bear raid of last week and bulls eag erIy took advantage Of the unfavorable weather conditions in the harvest belt" to help force prices higher They were aided in their efforts by sharp bulge In oats and by an advance of 1-sd. to 3-5d. at Liverpool notwith- standing the slump here Saturday.

 The mandate was prepared and js- sued at the request of the Attorney General who is considering the course to be pursued in the United States Cir cult Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, where the case orfeI- hated as that court was reversed.
 In support of the constitutionaIitv of the law 1t would be necessary for the lower court to take the matter m anew and record a verdict in accord ance with the directions of the su- preme Court and presumably this will be done under the guidance of the Attorney General
