Hard on Him.
Albany Correspondence New York Herald.
"Sometimes they carry jokes too

Albany Correspondence New York Herald.
sometimes they carry jokes too far"
said Miner Wellman, assistant clerk of
the senate. For instance, 1 recall the
csc of man named Newton who used
to live in Allegheny county. He was
a queer sort of chap who hated social
affairs and formalities of all kinds. He
went to Boston one time to visit at the
home of young woman to whom he
was engaged. OF course. he was in
fatuated with the young woman, but
he didn't relish the idea of spending
more than few days at her home,
where he would have to meet all her
friends and be a good fellow all the
time So he fixed it up with himself
and another of his friends to send a
wire To him on a certain day to this
effect.
, Business very lively. Your. pres
ence absolutely necessary tomorrow
ION the date mentioned we got to-
gether and framed up a telegram of a
slightly different character. We sent
1t SO that it would reach Newton about
dinner time, and our calculations were
correct Just after the family sat down
the telegram was delivered and Newton
read it aloud. This is what it said:
"'Business very dull. See no reason
why you can't stay two or three weeks.
No reason for your presence here.

Worlds Record for Lady Cats.

Waterville Dispatch TO New York Sun.
Eighty miles in two days and nights
and carrying for half the distance a
four-week- old kitten is the worlds rec
ord for lady cats set by an athletic
tabby belonging To Mrs. Ann Grant of
Waterville.
Careful search OF the athletic records
shows that several gentleman cats have
bettered this time for the distance and
that some who have been overcome by
the wanderlust have gone farther, but
these feline Westons carried no weight
and their training was not done in
box loot long.
The Grants moved from Stetson to
Waterville, forty miles away. Not
wanting to he bothered with a month
old kitten, Mrs. Grant gave it to n
neighhor Then tho mother cat was
shut in Il box and carried TO the new
home here. after arguing in vain to
have ner baby taken with her
When the family arrived here it was,
dark. but the cat as soon as she coulc
escape from the house started for Stet-
son. Two nights later she walked into
the house in Waterville with her kitten.

CHICAGO.

CHICAGO. May 31.-With Liverpool
prices the lowest in several years and the
European visible supply showing an in
crease for the week, there was general
rush here to sell wheat today. Notwith-
standing the cool weather in this coun-
try, moreover, the outlook for the grow
ing crops was said to be generally favor
able. Talk of readjustment to an inter-
national basis Of prices started afresh.
Attention was so concentrated on THIS
and kindred phases the bulls got small
comfort from the fact that sales Of cash
Friday and Saturday were found to reach
100000 bushels. a total seldom pasal-
leled, and regarded as practically clean
ing up the May deal in favor of the
eastern Spectator who was the chief
holder.
The market here opened 50 to 2i4c lower.
the latter in the December option, which
started at 80 to 30. May was off to
IA. but was given relatively little notice,
although this was the last day for settle
ment. September started 11s to l5ealss
down, at 901saass, and rallied to sCh.
Other options also showed s1ffi. reaction
from the early low level.
In corn the big stocks in cribs and the
wheat weakness offset for a time the eff
feet of cold weather. September opened
Il to s. lower. at SIS to 571., but later adj
vanced to jS14.
General commission selling caused a
lower opening for oats. The market after
ward, however. rose in sympathy with
corn. September started 1saH to ssah
down, at 347s to S5ls, and advanced to
351s
Despite fairly steady start, provisions
succumbed to the weakness in wheat.
Initial prices were &c lower to 212c high
er at 22O5 to 22.10 for pork, 12.3c1s to
1885 for lard and 1870 for ribs.

men here today are speculating up
on the probability and possibility
that the Hill interests have filed at
Washington, d. c., a right of way
through the klamath Indian reser-
vation. This right of way would
complete the path of a Hill road
from the mouth of the Deschutes
canyon to klamath Falls, Ore, fol-
lowing the filing of a right of way
through two townships just north
of the reservation.
The township filings were made at
Lakeview, Ore, and give to the Ore
gon Trunk a through line from its
junction with the Northern Pacific
road to the northern line of the Kla-
math reservation.

CHARMING.
PIANIST AT
THE GRAND

Miss Elvyn, who appeared at
the Grand opera house last evening,
played to a large and select audi
ence of Salem's music lovers. Miss
Elvyn's playing far surpassed the
press notices which we're given her
in the newspapers before her arrival
in this city Her playing is wonder
full, and her beautiful personality
adds greatly to the charm of the
music. One Of the pieces which
seemed to be appreciated most was
the "Andante Finale" from Lucia,
which she rendered with her left hand
alone. Susie Fennel Pipes selections
on the violin we're well rendered.
Miss Shelton and her pupils are to
be given credit for bringing Miss El-
vyn to Salem, and it is safe to say
that if she ever comes here again she
will be remembered and have a good
audience.
