n.u Records for Corn.

Chicago, Jan. Enormous trade
in corn and market again at new high
level for all months. Changing, COM
mission, speculation and pit scalping
trade larger in volume than in many
months. Much realizing but the mar
ket has easily absorbed many mil
lions Of bushels. Some OF the May
shorts have bought today and resold
for July and September. Weather Sc
we're and rail service crippled to an
alarming degree. Feeding operations
necessarily very heavy. Forecast is for
more moderate weather which is ex-
pected to help the movement to mar
ket. Cash demand has again reached
fair proportions with sales of 100000
bushels. Cash corn in sample market
steady / to 1h higher. Nearly L.,
900 bushels cash corn sold from
here thus far this week. We can only
advise caution on this buying side.
May corn is close enough to 10 cents
Tn induce and invite large realizing
sales, which could easily make sharp
reactions.-Harris, Winthrop & Co.

over A THOUSAND
BIRDS EXPECTED
SECRETARY cANNIFF, OF PouL-
TINY ASSOCIATION, STATES $50
ENTRIES HAVE ALREADY BEEN
MADE WITH HUNDREDS OF IN
oulRIEs ABOUT COMING SHOW.

Il expect there viii be fully 1900 or
1.50o birds entered for the annual
poultry show of the North Dakota
Poultry association, which win be
held here on Jan. is to 81" said r..
@. Cannfff, secretary OF the associa-
ton, today. up TO the present time
there have been $50 entries made
which include famous birds from
North Dakota, Manitoba, South Da-
kota, Wisconsin, Iowa and many Of
the other states in This vicinity"
The show this year will be a record
breaker In the number OF birds enter
ed and in their excellence. There will
be galaxy Of prize winners never be-
fore seen in this state, something that
should not be missed The exhibition
facilities will be OF the best to show
the birds to advantage and this fact
together with the splendid prizes Of
fered, has induced owners OF fine fowls
to enter them. ~
Being held at the time of the Tri-
State Grain Growers convention when
the city will be full of people, this
show should attract a large number Of
people. 1t and the bench show, which
will also be held at the same time, are
two features which those attending
the convention and the residents of
the city should not miss.

L.iauidatlon in Wheat.

Minneapolis, Jan. THE closing
break In wheat reflected the efforts Of
aggressive selling all day that finally
induced a larger liquidation of hold
ings At the close tonight there is a
arger short interest than for some time
embodied in their position by the re-
ports Of large accommodations of wheat
helded for Chicago, but delayed by bad
weather. II will be recalled that a
similar bear drive took place in this
market on the exaggerated report of
the volume of wheat delayed in transit
during the switchmen's strike The
outsome was the reverse of the bear
argument as with increased receipts
the cash market strengthen and prem
iums advanced
This was because most OF this wheat
was already placed.
This may not be the case with the
Chicago market but the short interest
has still to contend with legitimate
strong cash situation and that is hard
er to beat than a technical pit condition.
The European situation continues bull
ish. The quality of Argentine crop is
poor. To offset the larger movement
of winter wheat there were advices of
possible damage by the extreme cold
weather where the crop is unprotect-
ed. A conservative position on the
long side is advised but It may be well
to watch the effect Of an increasing
movement in Chicago.--Chas f. Lewis

special music. Today Pastor Nc
Intyre placed the detailed programme
in. the hands OF the printer and they
will be ready for the public in a day

The new edifice is of brick and
stone, in attractive design and takes
the place of an old frame building

eyar ago. The new structure cost
$4,000, exclusive OF the furniture and
fixtures. The latter will cost close
to $1,000 and include substantial
pews. The new church is the result OF
some very strenuous work on the part
of Mr.. Mcintyre who had a number
OF discoura gements to overcome, but
ne boldly stimulated the members OF
his flock and they co-operated with
him to a man.

MAND Will RELIEVE THE
SITUATION.

st. Paul, Jan. THE price Of hogs
in st. Paul will not go much higher,
according to local butchers. If the
price were to increase much more. they
say, there would be no purchases of
pork: people could not AFFORD IT,
The price at the packing plants for
live hogs has lowered around '$S.40 for
a week. the highest quotations for
years. Several sales were made this
morning at Chicago at $500, bur local
buyers say those were exceptional
deals in which pureblood animals fig-
ured.
Estimating the future price OF hogs
Is pure guess work" said william Pen
,se, local buyer for Swift & co.
There is no telling where 1t will 90,
but it seems to me it has reached the
top. although thought the same thing
last week"
There has been little change in the
retail price Of pork" said Otto w. Rob-
land this morning Il have been in
business here for thirty years and
never before knew OF such prices.
do not think there Is butcher in the
city who is cutting any hogs. We are
all buying from the packers and the
margin OF profits is very close. A good
loin which retails at is cents, uncut,
costs us 10 to 1874 cents
81 do not think the price will go
much higher. Last year the corn crop
was short and that affected the corn
business. This year there was good
crop and many farmers have a large
number of hogs which will be rushed
to market to take advantage Of the
high price"

Grain Opinions.

Logan Bryan: Keep profits on long
wheat In mind, place resting orders to
buy on any good dip and watch the
strong situation developing at home
and abroad
Harris, Winthrop & Co.: The wheat
situation and the price favor sales
rather than purchases for a few days,
Finley Darrell & Co.: We see abso-
lutely nothing in the situation to war
rant changing our position, in fact we
feel more confident than ever that
corn will ultimately sell veryw much
higher Immediate course of oats
pivots on action of other cereals and
on the attitude of the farmers.
Clement, Curtis & Co.: We believe
in buying wheat on all show of weak
ness. We have not yet begun TO see
the big advance in cor.
Bartlett Patten & Co: A good deal
Of realizing on long wheat has taken
place the past two days and the sellers
are awaiting for a week spot to re-
place. They have not found it yet, but
may do so shortly il somebody can be
found who is willing to sell the mar
ket down. The severity of the weather
and consequent larger feeding is be-
ing pointed out as a bull argument
for corn.

Great Comet Of 1889.

Boston Globe: In 1882 occurred a
comet known as. the Great Comet"
because of its unusual size and bril-
liancy II was remarkable for the
fact that 1t was one Of five comets
following nearly the same orbit, the
others beingg the comets of 1868.
1843, 1880 and 1887. The nucleus of
the comet of 1882 showed a tendency
to fall apart. 1t was visible for about
nine months, an unusually long time.
and during this period passed $40 de-
grees of its orbit It followed an clip
tical path and the tail was remark
able for its great length, 100000, 900
miles, and 1t was noticeably forked at
the end.
1t is said to be the brightest comet
Of the century, and the reason 1t was
not more generally observed was due
to the fact that it was visible only In
the early morning hours. For three
days it was visible to the naked eye
with the sun above the horizon, being
one of only fourteen comets on record
bright enough to be SO seen.

TaIkina Across Oceans.

London Daily Mail; In a few weeks
time 1t may be possible for a man
standing at the Eiffle tower In Paris TO
speak across the Atlantic to per-
son in the Mutual Life office (the
highest inhabited building) at New
York-over $500 miles away. The
necessary installations WILL It Is
stated, be then completed.
Should the experiments prove as
successful as is anticipated, people
will be able to speak across the At
lantic between these two cities with
out even raising their voices. Inter-
national business will undergo an ex-
traordinary change, for transactions
could be discussed and completed in a
few minutes that would take two
weeks or more in the ordinary way.
The system Of telephony adopted
for these experiments by the French
government is that of De Forest, an
American inventor, which was tried
last summer between the admiralty
offices at Whitehall and certain ships
stationed in the channel. Previous to
this the admiralty at Portsmouth had
been in communication with ships in
the channel fitted with De Forests
apparatus. and had been convinced
that in the case of naval battle In
the channel the commander of ves-
sci, directing his ship, could talk with
the admiralty from the bridge. Should
these long distance experiments prove
satisfactory. wireless telephony will
probably be extensively adopted in
battleships.
The speech is transmitted across
space in the form of bends or dis
tortions caused in electro magnetic
waves emitted from an intensely
powerful arc lamp of special form.
These waves travel $4,000 miles a
second-the same rate as highland
are called "undamped oscillations"
and at the receiving station the re-
ceiver translates the wave forms into
speech again. The power required at
the Eiffel tower to generate electricity
for the giant arc lamp is 200 horse
power

A PATH I'M THE WOODS.

It's friendship and its careIessness
Did lead me many a mile;
Through goats rue, with its dim caFess.
Anr pink and pearl-white smile;
Through crowfoot, with golden lure,
Anr promise Of far things,
And sorrel with its glance demure,
And wide-eyed wonderings
It led me with its innocence,
AS childhood leads the wise.
With elbows here OF tattered fence,
And blue of wildfiower eyes;
With whispers low of leafy speech.
And brook-sweet utterance;
With birdlike words of oak. and beec
And whistlings clear as Pans.
1t led me with its childlike charm.
AS candor leads desire,
Now with clasp Of blossomy arm,
A butterfly kiss Of fire.
Now with toss Of tousled gold.
A barefoot sound Of green;
A breath of musk, of messy mold
With vague allurmeits keen
II led me with remembered things,
Into an old thine vale,
Peopled with fairy glimmerings
And fiowerlike fancies pale;
Where fungus forms stood. gold and
gray;
Each in a mushroom grown,
And, rooted with red, glimpsed far
away,
A little toadstool town.
1t led me on and on and on,
Beyond the Far Away,
Into a world long dead and gone,
The world of Yesterday.
A fairy world of memory,
Faint with its hills and streams,
Wherein the child / used to be
Still wanders with its dreams
