the Envied OF All Observers.

Everything about her bespoke the
returning Summer Girl as she tripped
blithely out of the Grand Central sta
ton, says the New York Press. In
one hand she carried rather bulky
travelling bag. in the other she held
gorgeously Powered silk sunshade, to-
gether with the ample reefs in her fur
beloved skirt and petticoats. The
daintiest pair of feet in tan slippers
fiuttered from beneath the reefs as
she hurried through the throngs of in
coming and out going passengers to-
ward a Forty-second street car.
She was good to look at, despite the
deep tan of the summer sun and the
frieze of fragrant freckles across the
slightly upturned nose. As she hoped
blithely into the first car that came
along it became instantly obvious to
other passengers that something had
gone wrong. They heard shrill> lit
tie soprano "Oh!" burst from her lips
as she looked around appealingly to
the car conductor, horror depicted in
every feature.
With sudden jerk the car came to
stop before 1t had gone ten feet. A
moment later young man ran up to

Future Grain and Provisions

CHICAGO, June 24.-Attention of traders in
wheat turned temporarily 10 foreign cond-
lions, particularly that in Argentina. where
frost is reported TO have caused some damage.
Shipments for the week from that country
were also much smaller than year ago. The
Liverpool market partially reflected these bullish
sdvces in advance Of sd to 1ad.
Several bull leaders. ignoring favorable crop
reports, bought freely. Their demand was
chiefly for July, but the demand was also good
for September and December. The nearby deliv-
cry reflected buOyancy and advanced 1l4c from
the low point. The arrival Of three cars Of new
wheat at st. Louis. two Of which We're No. ,
red and were auctiOned off at l.30 per bushel,
prompted considerable miscellaneous selling dur
ing the final hour. The market closed strong,
with July at 1.131s.
The magnificent prospects for the new crop
caused general liquidation in the corn market.
resulting in net declines of 1sc to 1c. The mar
ket closed weak at almost the bottom.
Cash houses and country holders were free
sellers of early, which resulted in weakness.
The market closed steady, with prices shade
higher TO sc lower.
Provisions quiet. but the tone of the
market firm. Prices closed sc to 15c higher
than the previous final quotations.
