Chicago. June 3-WHEAT-There are
good reasons why the movement OF
wheat to primary markets viii be small
during July. First, the crop is lare;
second, farmers are already showing
Indifference about making early sales.
relieving in high prices for a year TO
come; third, interior mills are holding
off and expecting to grab the first Of
ferings of new wheat and this sort OF
buying will take about all that will be
for sale early in July. In addition,
prices are going to be high at St. Louis
and Kansas City and this will head off
much wheat that would naturally c;.me
to Chicago during the month. There
is natural heaviness in the late months
compared with July because of the talk
of big crop prospects in the northwest.
This is another case of counting chick
ems before they hatch and short sales
for September and December may
prove as expensive for the bears as
have those made for May and July in
the past. We favor the buying side of

THE WHEELER SHOWS.
To Show In Newtown, May IF.

The undisputeG reputation for un- rivalled excellence in all that per tains to a genuine high class circus performance has attracted im'nense crowds to the Al. F. Wheeler shows in every town in which they have played this season. These shows, a grand combination of circus, muse um and trained animals, have won for themselves the deserved reputa- tion of being the best one ring circus in existence. This year finds is bet ter than eyer before with a large number of new features added, many of them of such a high standard that they are seen nowhere outside of the very largest shows. Among these might be mentioned the magnificent pageant and modern arenic spectacle called "The Queen of Nations" The dazzling beauty and gorgeous splen- dor of this production as well as it's historical interest, makes it worth a journey of many miles to see. Spit f.re," the untamable lion; Duke and Bess, mammoth specimens of Siberl- an camels and the only baby Siberian camel ever born in captivity, are some of the many interesting speci- mems of wild animals which go to make up the geological annex to the Wheeler New Model Shows. A unique part of this wondrous dis play is the Lil7iputian menagerie in which the dwarf members of the wild animal kingdom are shown in miniature cages, especially con structed for their accommodation Wheeler's famous troupe of dancing horses and educated ponies, as well as a company of the most highly trained performing dogs in the world can be seen in this circus. Twenty other high class acts and a host of happy frolicsome clowns keep the interest up until the very end of every performance.

HOME NEWS. WEDDING.
Miss Luckner-Mr Lewis.

Robert H. Lewis, a popular young man of the Singer Manufacturing Co.,. fell before Cupid's penetrating dart on Wednesday evening, April 2S, when he welded Miss Nina M. Luckner of Botsford. The ceremony was performed by the Rev George M. Brown of the Frst Methodist church of Bridgeport at ,7.15 o'clock. The bride was very prettily attired, and was attended by Miss Netue Braitling of StratfOrd as maid Of honor, and the best man was broth CT of the bride, Jesse Luckner. After the ceremony MT and Mrs Lewis went to the home of the brides brother at APO PequonnOck Street. About 25 of the grooms office associates got wise to his plans and arrived at the house at the same time and greeted them with a drum corps and red lire. The couple was serenaded until eleven o'clock, when the serenaders left the happy couple and returned to their homes. The office force of the Singer Co. presented to MT and Mrs Lewis a sewing machine and a sewing table and a rocker for MT Lewis to sit in, while his better half manipulates the sewing outfits. All the young couples friends wish them a long and happy life.
