claims of crop damage furnished the
incentive for an advance in May wheat

bone of the upward trend and an easier
tone gained impetus from the disincli-
nation of many traders to be strongly

"a Stubborn Cinderella

newspaper critic in both New YORK

his brother critic as to the merits, and
delights of a musical comedy that the
fact that this rara avis occurred in the
instance of Mr.. Mort II. Singers "A
Stubborn Cinderella" at the Princess

blazoned forth. The Chicago Exam

more merit than the ordinary.

Mr. Wade H. Ellis began his little

few wears ago by making the Ohio
state corporations behave themselves,
he has been person of peculiar in

interesting way of doing things; so
there was no surprise manifested
when he was elected to help the gov

and finally being made official assist

But in the meantime things have
not gone too smoothly at home and
the president is inclined to think that,
without entirey separating himself
from his governmental duties, Mr.. Ell

work as chairman of the state execu-
tive committee of Ohio. He has there
fore had his resign the assistant at
torney generalship and in token of his

friends have told him is alarming. The
resignation of Mr.. Ellis was planned
some days ago at a meeting between
the president. Arthur l. Vorys, repub-
lean national committeeman from
Ohio; Henry A. Williams, former
chairman of the executive committee;
Mr. Ellis, and Attorney General Wick

president has been in consultation with
Mr. Wickersham and Mr.. Ellis about
the resignation. 1t was the sense of
the presidents advisers that harmony
could best be procured and more eff

ton IF Mr.. Ellis Although the presi-
dent told callers that he was reluctant
to part with Mr.. Ellis as an official of
the department of justice, he consent

He AYERS specifically also that he
will not be a candidate for any office
whatever and that he will favor no
particular candidate for any office.
Mr.. Ellis had been mentioned recently
as a possible candidate for the gov
ernorship to run against Judson Har-
mon the democrat who has caused
much of the uneasiness among Ohio
politicians.
Mr.. Ellis will not sever his connec-
ton with the government entirely
when he takes up his political duties.
He will continue the conduct of sever
al cases before the supreme court ana
will also be retained as special counsel
in the prosecution of the beef trust IN

Also the three nights match at 1872

the wide and diversified interest in the

New York in many years, attracted
great deal of attention, and gave de-
cided impetus to the game in New

Since Morningstar and myself have

powers that be in the billiard world,
there is no reason why championship
matches should not come thick and

Billiards for Youth and Age.

the game of billiards is the fact that
it can be played we'll by youth or age
No doubt as a man increases in age he
loses much of the keenness Of vision
that is so necessary to successful pay,
but unless a younger opponent pos
sesses great steadiness the experience
of the older man may give him an adj
vantage.
