Grain and Provisions.

Chicago, April Rehabilitation was
the order of the day in the wheat pit.
From the clang of the opening bell
to the finish long wheat was fed into
the pit and the decline was so pre-
cipitate at times that the commission
houses were considered fortunate if
they succeeded in executing stop-loss
orders within nc of the limit. There
were times during which covering by
shorts or by owners of downward in
IDENTITIES more than offset the realiz-
ing sales, but these We're brief as a
rule. At the low point July recorded
loss of 4A@4Ac from yesterday,
and May dropped 4Ac.
This was a break of 9Ac for July
compared with the highest point
touched during the campaign, which
was just one week ago, and a decline
of SIC for May. The erstwhile
leader of the bull forces, while not in
evidence personally in the pit, having
left the city yesterday on western
trip.
The Patten house. however. was rep
resented by brokers, who it was
claimed, kept unloading wheat as
rapidly as conditions would permit.
Selling by other leading commission
houses also was on an enormous scale,
three or four concerns being credited
with sales during the day aggregating
between 100000 and 100000 bushels.
Meanwhile several things tended to
contradict the theory advanced by the
bulls of scarcity Of wheat. The
wheat producing countries of the
southern hemisphere which, has been
listed as being extremely short of the
cereal, were comparatively heavy
shippers during the last week accord
ing to semi-official estimates made
today. Advices from all sections OF
the winter wheat belt in this country
told of generally favorable conditions
for the rapid growth of fall sown crop
Gables also were weak. During the
first few minutes July dropped to
Sill, but rallied quickly again about
lie. The advance, however, brought
out fresh short sales. This procedure
was repeated throughout the day
with the exception that on each break
prices dropped little lower.

Zone Touch of Nature Makes the
Whole World Kin"

When a rooster finds big fat
worm he calls all the hens in the
farm yard to come and share it. A
similar trait of human nature is to
be observed when a man discovers
something exceptionally good-he
wants all his friends and neighbors
to share the benefits OF his discovery.
This is the touch of nature that makes
the whole world kin. This explains
why people who have been cured by
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy write
letters to the, manufacturers for pub
LEGATION. that others similarly ailing
may also use it and obtain relief. Be-
hind every one of these letters is a
warm hearted wish Of the writer to
be of use to someone else. This
remedy is for sale by all druggists.

direction del campamento, avanzan-
do con mucho tiento para no expo

Cuatro 8 cinco horas echo en- aquella
penosa marcha, al fin de la cual pu-
do hacer mejor acopio de datos. Gre
yendo haber cumplido toda su mi
sion, Sc puso en- marcha al instante
en- direction del campamento de los
patriotas. Salvo la distancia hasta
las fortificaciones exteriores, escalo
el muro de Ia trinchera y baj6 al otro
lado, simpre arrastrandose para no
ser visto. Tan luego como Sc VIC en-
el extenso campo alberto, incorpo-
rose y tomo aliento, pensando llegar
aquella misma noche a su campa-
mento. De pronto una estruendosa
voz resono al traves del silencio:
"iAlto, detengase 9 disparo"
Bob echo a correr, pues no tenfa bu

La bala paso silbando por los ofdos

prudente dejar atras todo ell terreno

fuerzas Sc pusieron en- movimiento
y tomaron las armas. La confusion

ton, a quien suministro los datos
adquiridos.
Las pesquisas del otro Official fue-

De acuerdo con aquellos datos,

Dos jovenes oficiales, San Y Bob,
presentaronse ante Washington,
voluntarlamente, para servir de es-
plas. .Despues de caida la noche aban-
donaron el campamento de los pa
trlotas y enderezaron sus pasos ha-
cla las lineas enemigas. Cuando es-
tuvleron media milla de la obras
exterlores de los ingleses, dieronse
un fuerte apret6n de manos, dijeron-
Sc adlos deseandose la meior suerte,
y Sc separaron en- sentidos opuestos.
Bob avanzaba con mucha caute
la, tratando Gle hacer el menor ruido.
A POGO, diviso las trincheras que el
enemigo habia levantado frente a el.
''Estemos alerta' penso, y Sc pu-
30 a andar a gatas, atento a cualqui-
er slgno de los centinelas, los cuales
podfan estar por alli. Experimentan-
DO no poca sopresa lego a la base
de las obras, sin Aaber sido molesta-
do por los centlneIas, a los que, afor-
tunadamente, no tuvo el desagrado
dc ver .Entonces Sc detuvo ty aguzo
el dido. La mas segura quietud rel
naba en- todo el campo. Comenzo
escalar la falda de las fortified cio-
mes. Cuando iba a llegar a la Gina.
Gle estas, un bulto destacose frente
el. Era el centinela. Bob Sc contu-
vo y acto seguido Sc agazapo sobre
el terreno, sin dejar de obse var an
slosamente al importuno recienlle-
gado. Este estuvo cerca del intrepi-
do mozo unos cuantos momentos,
pasados los cuales volvio a continu-
ar su monotone paseo al traves de
las trincheras.
Aprovechando aquella oportuni-
dad, Bob acabo de dar termino a SUI
pellgrosa ascencion. Una vez al otro
lado de la fortificaciones, tuvo a.
blen escoger un sitio bastante dist
mulado adonde descansar.
Ante los ojos del arrojado rebel
de, Sc extendia el immense panora-
ma del campo enemigo, con sus enor-
mes ogatas, tiendas, y soldados de
q pie y q caballo yendo en- todas di-
recciones. Una vez dentro de las II
meas brftanicas, empezo a poner en-
practica supapel de espia. Aguzando
el dido, escuchaba atentamente to-
do cuanto podia, mientras disehaba,
a la ligera, el croquis de las posieio-
