and the sun, and surrounded the old
king whose place Pa had usurped, and
by the motions they made and the
few words l could understand it was
evident they proposed to drive us out
Of the tribe. The old king came to
Pa and said his tribe wanted to have
peace again, and wanted him to run
the shebang, and they wanted an old
fashioned cannibal feast, and that
they insisted on eating Pa and the
cowboy and myself, roasted. Pa said
all right, he was willing to be roast
ed In the evening but not in the morn
ing. He said white meat always tast-
ed better in the evening, after a ride
up In the clouds, and he proposed to
the old king that we all three, with
the king, take nice ride in the sky
cart, take along all the gold we had,
visit an adjoining tribe, buy all their
wives, and herd them, and let the
cowboy drive them back to camp and
then they could roast us and have the
time Of their lives.
This looked good to the old king.

drink, shelter and offspring are significant
as they are fused into the hungers and
thirsts of the spirit. "a spark disturbs
our clod." Man often becomes lower than
the beast because his physical passion is dis
turbed by his spiritual life. Beasts drink to
quench their thirst; man associates fellow
ship with his thirst, with drunkenness as
the result. The saloon rests primarily on
the craving for fellowship. Beasts eat to

NEW YORK STOCK
AND BOND MARKET

NEW YORK, May 1S.-The stock market to-
day was almost bare of features or incident
and its action was inconcIusive as an indication
Of the financial opinion or the speculative sem
timent. The waiting attitude was persisted
and doubt Of the steps to take IN the pursuit OF
the speculation was unresolved. me proIes-
SIGNAL element greatly divided in OPINION
but this division instead Of prompting ope-
rations. had the effect Of discouragins activity
altogether.
One party argued that the desire to get
away for summer trips to Europe and to en-
Joy the profits accrued furnished the motives
for the recent selling and not any wei grounu-
ed distrust of the stability of the market rms
party in the speculation professed an expecta-
tion of an early resumption of the advance ON
the other side of the argument was advanced
the vulnerabllty of a market in when an
extensive speculation for rise had peeh car
ried to a conclusion. With prices at hlgh
level the powerful and organized support or
the campaign would be lacking and stocks
would be fourd in the hands OF weaker holueIs
There was no show Of active initiative IN the
dealings in agreement with either view. Prices
drifted feebly and changed their current move
ment The strength of Chesapeake & ONO was
one of the few features of the market. Inns
was accounted for by the talk OF the intention
to 1oin the road with other roads under one
common ownership, towards organizing a new
and important trunk line.
The OUTGOING line Of travel to Europe figures
in the International exchange market effectively
at this season because of the large sums IN
money or credits carried by travellers. Dis
counts were reported easier In London and
Paris, but advanced a fraction in Berlin
The resumption Of the publication of the
weekly bulletins by the weather bureau re-
ceived some attention in view of the high I'M
portance attached to crop changes.
Reports of restoration Of wages by some OF
the important steel companies made good
impression and strengthened the belief in the
Improvement In that trade
The belated rise in Steel gave the market

any time during the day and had the effect Of
making the closing strong. Bonds were irresu-
lar. Total sales par value, S5,350OOO Govern
ment bonds were unchanged on call.

specIal service to The Herald by Dick Bros
&, Co, members Chicago Board OF Trade brau-
bury building, Los Angeles
CHICAGO May 1S-Some of the most power
full interests in the local trade were on opposite
sides of the market today. There was the best
advance for some time during the morning.
This fact created a good deal of bullish senti-
ment in the other months and as there was
nlenty of bull news from all quarters the mar
ket had a decidedly strong upturn, Perhaps
there was some buying at the same time in the
way of covering wheat for the house which
went into the hands of receivers yesterday.
By midday the former active bull house in the
trade took the selling side of the market on a
large scale. Sales by this one interest PROB
ably reached 1000, 900 bushels. Market had
little rally on last trades. 1t looks like a
move to prevent too rapidly an advance at this
time as the news of the day certainly 1ust-
fed the bull operations of the morning.
Influenced by the strength in wheat the nrst
hour corn sold up to the high point or the day.
There was moderate reaction IN prices last
hour In sympathy with wheat, but the market
closed with fair net gains for leading months.
The country is not letting go reserves as ex-
neoted following the completion of planting In
several states. If the country sells freely
these late months will be forced lower but
without liberal corn offerings 1t will be well to
act cautiously
