Convention Next Year Will BE Held
at Stockton.

Osborne Kan, June 18.-The Con-
cordia district Epworth League conven-
ton, which was held at Osborne, Kan
sas, this week, was very enthusiastic
affair and many say the best that was
ever held in the district. There were
over 100 delegates. The lecture of Rev.
Homer Wark of Leavenworth was es-
pecially fine and also his school of
methods proved to be very valuable
part of the programme.
The papers were all very fine, and
those of Miss Clara Porter of Beloit, l..
NJ Cook of Beloit circuit, Miss May
Prof c. z. Rarick of Stockton, Miss
Jessie Dreamer of Ports, deserve spe-
ciaI mention. The illustrated map work
on missions by Mrs. F. D. Baker was
greatly appreciated and the Penta-
costaI services led by Rev. w. H. Neill
were very profitable and very much en-
joyed. In fact it was a convention in
which all who participated deserve
mention as all performed their part
well and an atmosphere of great spirit
uaI power was manifest all through
the convention.
The officers elected for the ensuing
year were: President, w. A. Layton of
Osborne; secretary, Thos. Copporan
of Ports; treasurer, r.. Jackson; first
vice president, Chase King of Downs;
Kirwfn; third vice president, Mar
garette Barr of Prairie View; fourth
vice president, Gladys Alexander of
Glen Elder. The Osborneites did them
selves proud in their ability to enter
tain the visiting delegates. Stockton
was named for the place in which the
convention will be held next year.

The following is from the Los An

into a wide band of black velvet gar
nished at intervals with clusters of
small pink silk roses without foliage.
The brim is so narrow as hardly to
have earned the name.

Chicago, June s-wHEAT-Trader
said last night that the market had
been oversold and the best judges of pit
conditions attributed the advance to
the market being sold out. The little
war scare, which was instrumental in
starting the shorts to cover was very
insignificant affair. The local element
reduced their short interest at the close
last night but they are still very bear
ish. The fact that it is the fourth day
of the break and that prices are off s
cents from the recent high point is suf-
ficient inducement for a number OF
traders to take on a little wheat for a
turn. It is the gossip now that a num-
Der of Shrewd traders close to the bull
leaders have sold out their July Pat
tent says that so far as he can see,
there is no change in the situation.
CORN-Cash corn has passed into
strong hands, shipping houses have
control of the contract stocks here.
2 yellow made through shipping
house at cents over July, the future
being taken in exchange for the cash
stuff There were bids of 731sc or
about 11ac over July for No. 8 corn or
better for shipment in 80 days. This
was the basis for the buying orders Of
corn futures yesterday and helped to
scare in many shorts. Traders who
were SO excessively bearish the past
few days, changed front yesterday, be-
cause COuulIy HOlu0IS have llOA SOlQ So
freely and their offerings in all sections
yesterday were the lightest for some
days. With seven million bushels of
corn sold here for shipment in July and
with stocks small and the movement
light, traders are disposed to take a
friendly view Of the situation.-Inter-
Ocean.
Chicago June 1S.-WHEAT - The
way in which shorts had to buy wheat
back at losses on the late advance yes
terday may set them to thinking a lit
tie differently from this on. 1t became
altogether too popular to sell June
weather and scenery. AS far as actual
wheat is concerned there is very little
being sold in the way of hedging in any
primary market as yet. The chief rea-
son is that wheat raisers know the
value of their property. Weather keeps
unseasonably cool and in many sec
lions too wet for maturing the crop.
There will be return of selling pres
sure, no doubt on any further upturn,
but we believe the winter crop situa-
ton and the high cash wheat prices
iustif-- thebuying of these late months
On all oversold spots
CORN-Cash corn Is in strong hands
Shipping sales for next month are
said to aggregate seven million BUSH
els and much of this corn has not yet
left the corn raisers' hands. If wealth
er is either cold or wet for balance OF
month and country is slow to sell re-
serves there will be no safety In the
short side of corn If market gets
fairly good dip under local bear pres
sure, buy it.-Logan & Bryan.
