The Effect OF the Lure.

IUuldIldpO1lS NtNE
With becoming modesty we beg to
state that we told you so. The anti
marriage society which was organized
at Columbus by a number of well
meaning but inexperienced young wo-
men, has had precisely the effect that
was foreshadowed by these columns
some weeks ago. 1t is Turing 'em
on. And from as far away as Okla
homa at that. For has one of the mem
bers received from an eligible young
man in Oklahoma City a letter saying
that Notwithstanding her membership
in the organization-or, perchance, be-
cause of the is convinced that she
is the only one, and that he IL max
ing enough money for two. even should
the theory that they can live as cheap
ly as one prove fallacious? She has.
Little does 1t matter that she turned
the communication over to the or.
ganization and that 1t was rejected by a
unanimous vote. For one thing, this
astute young mans proposition. or let
us be frank and say proposal, was not
made to the club, far from 1T; he is
more modest than that besides. he
doesn't live in Utah. So it is entirely
probable that, In what may be called
the final analysis the club will have
nothing to do with the case, which
must be, by its very nature, purely
personal affair.
But here we have a rift in the cloud
Of gloom that overhangs the young
men who are pining away IN the con-
cealment OF a worm-Pthe-b state of
affairs. The daring Of the gallant
young Oklahoman will, we doubt not,
| encourage others, and we may expect
20 hear any day now that the siege
has begun. And there can be only one
result of this siege-more business for
the marriage license clerk.

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PRODUCE.

Chicago, Aug. 27--Excelient demand
for cash wheat here and in the North
west inspired lively bidding for the
options in the wheat market here to-
day, resulting in a materiai rally. Clos
ing figures showed net gains of one
cent to 3-s@I LIZ. Coarse grain and
provisions also closed strong.
Decided strength developed in the
wheat market following slight weak
ness at the start due to declines at the
principal European grain centers. Con-
gestion in the September delivery and
an accidental bulge of IL cent in tht
price OF that option was feature of
the first hours trading. The sharp adj
vance in the price of the nearby deliy-
cry prompted considerable covering by
shorts in the December optionl result
ing in a fair gain in that month. Sem
timent was undeniably bullish nearly
all day and prices at the close were
almost at the top notch.
A leading elevator interest was
again an aggressive bidder for the
September option, offerings of which
were meagre. Much of todays strength
centered in the cash situation. Arriv-
ais of cash wheat here are not SUN.
Gent to prevent constant increase in
premiums owing to the urgency of the
cash grain was said to be in active de-
mand and liberal sales of -four were
also reported. Crop reports from the
Northwest were generally of a favor.
dDie nature, OUT the impression tnat
prices had declined further than was
warranted by the present situation
seemed to have gained adherents.
Complaints of serious damage to the
corn crop in Nebraska 10y not winds,
brought out lively demand for corn
by shorts which caused considerable
strength in the market an day. An ad.
vance of 1-2 to ! cent In the price Of
tn ecash grain also helped to strength
EN- the market. At the, close, prices
were SIS to rs above yesterdays finaf
figures.
Provisions were Arm during the en-
tire session. chiefly because OF buying
of lard by local packers. Decreased
hog receipts at Western packing cen
tiers contributed some firmness to the
situation. Prices at the close showed
net gains of to % 1-2 cents.

I'VE continue our advice to buy"
I'VE do not look for much change In
values until after the government re.
port 10 out OF the way"
I'VE expect much higher prices to be
established"
The predominating belief Is that We
are CONFRONTED with a very moderate
crop and that the market will improve

I'VE must not look for anything like
big advance from this level"
