MARKETS

CHICAGO, Dec. 20-Wheat: No
one expects anything but a narrow
market unless bull leaders who have
enmoroue lines showing big losses
decide to either reduce their holdings
or do enough additional buying to
force the shorts to cover on tenn
porary advance. 1t is not likely
there will be any effort to sell any
part of the line at this time, as the
market will not take. it unless there
is a large decrease ahl the European
supply The news 'f6r'the day prob
ably will be moderately bearish, as
noted Yesterday The primary move
ment is heavy. The milling demand
is slack. The situation is heavy ex-
cept as relieved by confirmation of
adverse crop conditions caused by
drOuth.
Corn-An active local leader in
corn covered a line of nearly mill
lion bushels yesterday just when the
news was most bearish. This IL the
explanation given for only fraction
al break in futures while the cash
market was seoff lione etnt and an
enormous estimate 1T $40 ears.
Leaving all other features out of the
calculation the fact that Iowa and
Illinois together have about 100000
300 bushels of corn more than last
year is a decided bear argument, be-
cause the bulk of corn for this mar
ket comes from these states. The
fact remains that futures remain de-
cidedly stubborn and it may be they
are getting support from the people
who are obliged to hold the market
at its present level. For the present
we would limit selling orders to the
swells.

ANN adams IN THE RESTAURANT

In this restaurant all the girls are
required to wear black This neces-
STATED her buying new waists, and
all she could afford was a cheap black
one, so thin and coarse that her white
corset cover showed through. Some
man, who she found out later was a
special friend OF the owner OF the
restaurant, had the day before made
an indecent remark TO her about her
underwear while she was serving him.
He offered to buy her better clothes
That was why she "sassed" him.
Poor, pretty little Emily. The last
saw of her she was sitting among
the potatoes. stretching out her arms
TO me. and with tears rolling over her
face, whispering between her sobs,

the dishes, often chucking them into
the water without scraping them, and
bits OF food would float about in the
pans. The knives. forks and spoons,
which had come In contact with the
mouths OF all sorts and conditions OF

thrown into large sieve, shaken for
moment or two under a faucet OF

Hand-painted scarfs, parasols, rib

White kid gloves are stitched with
colors TO match the frock.
Parasol handles are from five to
eight inches longer than those OF last

Crocheted pearl collar pins are one

Tucked silk long gloves are in

Many very large fiat hats are seen,
trimmed underneath the brim.
New handbags are made OF black

to take a ribbon about three inches

a place in a restaurant.

l got n place In a restaurant
Emily, one of the girls, came TO
work that morning sick. Her head
was hot and her hands were dripping
with icy sweat. We met often during
the morning in the kitchen as we
went about out work. She swayed as
she walked even then, and begged
her to go home.
81 can't" she said II asked the
manager II could and he said No. "
That was the ultimatum. She could
not AFFORD to lose her place. Her wage

~ hours a day. six days In the week.
we had all been sick from spoiled
f,sh We were fed the fish because
II was the only meat left after the
customers" were through.
She worked that morning after be-
ing iii two days. My station was
crowded that noon. but on my way 10

ed Emily, holding her little fort IKE
a wounded soldier.
She had safely reached her station
with three plates OF meat and three
saucers of peas in one hand and arm
with four cups of coffee in the other
hand. two braced in her fingers and
the second two piled on top. she
served them all and was bending over
a man with the last cup OF conee,
when one of my customers attracted
my attention.
~ think there Is something wrong
with the little waitress two tables
down. Let my dinner go and see what
is the matter"
AS Emily slowly sank to her knees
another girl saved the man from be-
ing scalded, and the coffee fell on
Emily's white apron-the little white
apron that she had stayed up the
night before to wash and iron.
They took her out into corner or
the kitchen that served as storage
cellar and dressing room for both men
and women, and left her on bin of
potatoes. Within three feet OF her
was the table where the dirty dishes
were piled. and the sinks teeming
with dirty, sinking. greasy dish
water. At her feet was the garbage
can. and at her head sack Of turnips.
And there for one long hour she
lay crumpled up, while every wait
ress, cook and dishwasher in the
place was made TO go on with his
work in order that the moon rush"
might be handled
One OF the older mattresses who had
been there longer than screwed up
her courage and went to tha snauager
with the plea that she be allowed
either to do something for Emily her
self or send out for medical aid. She
was refused.
The moment | was released I flew
to a nearby drug store. where told
my story. There they gave me some
aromatic spirits OF ammonia. When
she came to herself again the first
thing she begged for was something
TO make her strong.
I've got to serve my tables to-
night" she sobbed. I've got to. The
manager is down on me anyway for
sassing customer, and this will get
me fred"
Then as her strength came back
she snuggled up in my arms and told
me why she was afraid.

quickly spread to the store, and the
building was good deal damaged by
fire, but the heaviest loss was from
smoke and water. A good deal of
the stock was damaged in this way.
The houses and barns of Herman
Born and Frank Denim took fire from
sparks, but were olny scOrched. The
fremen turned two streams of water
and some chemicals on, and soon had
all of the buildings saved except Mr..
MOhr's barn.
Mr. MOhr states that the barn will
be a total loss, and with the contents
the loss is estimated by him at about
$780, The loss to the stock in the
store will be heavy from smoke and
water. The building was not seriously
injured. The loss at the store is esti-
mated at $1,000. Mr.. Mohr carried
insurance on his building and stock,
so his loss will not be heavy. The
damage to the other houses and barns
was very little.
Louise Denim, fourteen year old
daughter of Frank Denim, was pain
fully burned about the chest. A blaz-
ing shingle fell upon her, igniting her
dress, which blazed mp. Her injuries
are not considered serious, fortunately.

MANKATO BOY TOSSED IN BLAN-
KET; INJURED.

Camp Lakeview, Lake City, Mimi.
July lS.-The hazing of Private Nc
Lain, new member of Company H, of
Mankato, by his campmates, which
was held Friday evening, resulted in
serious injuries to the initiate.
McIain was tossed in blanket, the
customary form of initiation. Those
holding the blanket failed to catch
him when he fell and he struck the
ground. The surgeon fears that the
soldier is injured internally, and that
a hemorrhage may result. However, if
this does prove to be the case, his re-
covery will be speedy.
Blanket-tossing always has been con-
sidered harmless, and McLain's injury
is regarded in camp as purely acct
dental. All the rockies" or new
guardsmen are expected to undergo the
initiation ceremony. What action might
be taken, however, should McLain's
injury prove fatal, is conjectural.
Lid on Sunday Shooting.
Colonel Wright of the Second regi-
ment limited the camp canteen to the
regular company ration, and now he
has put the Sunday lid on all shooting

have disregarded the Sabbath in this
