in the police court this afternoon,
where questions were asked the boy

torily. After the brief examination he
was returned to the detention house for
the night.

MARKET COMMENT OF THE DAY
erin Letter.

/ Chicago. Aug. 29-Wheat--The
wheat market opened steady to shade
higher and ruled firm early, but there
was enough liquidation to cause
prices to ease below those Of Saturday.
The trade was largely professional and
local operators inclined to be bullish.
Although all the foreign markets were
higher we cannot learn that bids for
shipment were materially higher than
on Saturday. The market today show
ed the effect of further liquidation of
September wheat and this may contin.
ne to be feature for the next few
days Any renewal of export demand
would give us higher market, but
without 1t we do not look for any ma
terial change of prices.

Shows World Estimate.

Chicago, Aug. 29.-Snow presents an
estimate for the wheat crop Of all coun-
tries that figure In the worlds wheat
trade of 1852 100000 bushels against
officially reported crops last year in
the same countries of 3,350,918, 900
bushels. In reaching this total the
United States is credited with a crop
of 675,000,000 bushels and Canada with
120,00O00O bushels The Broomhall
estimate is adopted for all other coun-
tries, the crop from the southern con-
tinent, Argentine, Australia and India
part of which Is yet to be seeded and
none of which has yet encountered the
vicissitudes of the season, is placed at
63s,000,000 bushels against $4,000, 900
bushels last year and 554 900, 900 bush
els in 1908. the previous year. This
represents an increase of $4,000 900
over last year upon the assumption of
a full normal rate of yield in these
countries on an increased acreage. An
actual falling below this high figure
would increase the apparent worlds
deficiency by that much. On this basis
OF crop production the surplus avail
able for shipment during the present
lcrop year is estimated at $4,000, 600
bushels, the United States being cred
iited with 100000 and Canada with
i50,00o,000 bushels. The requirements
of the importing countries aggregate
I609,000,000 bushels, crediting France
with only $4,000, 900 OF foreign wheat
instead Of 100000, 900 bushels as is now
currently estimated by reliHble foreign
houses In the wheat trade. Not only
is the European wheat crop short, but
AN additional burden is thrown upon
st because Of the generally poor food
crops, particularly potatoes on the con-
tinent. Taking the most liberal view
of the position surplus from North
America and anticipating better than
average yields in Argentine Australia |
and India whose crops are yet to be |
made, there is still a material shortage |
In the worlds wheat supply this year.

A thrilling tale of the sea was told
when the crew of the trawler Ava
were landed at Hull, England, the
other day, the vessel having sprung a
leak and foundered in the North sea.
She sank in little over an hour, but
the crew were rescued by the Hartle-
pool trawler, Loeb Barry. During the
storm the water rose rapidly and ex-
tinguished the engine room fires.
Flares were burnt, and In their despair
the crew burnt their beds. The pumps
could not cope with the thrush of wa
ter, and eventually the crew took to
their boat. Some of the men had to
lie in the bottom of the boat. They
rowed against strong swell for
hours without making any progress,
and hope of rescue was being despaired

The Spelling Question.

There is a prevalent conviction,
whether justified by the facts or not,
that the school children of today are
not so thoroughly trained in spelling
as were the pupils of generation
or two ago A school superintendent
of a county In Pennsylvania has
planned for series of spelling bees
to be held throughout the county, and
has prepared book of 500 practical
everyday words. Prizes will be award
ed to the winners in the contests.
English spelling is arbitrary and diff
cult. 1t is too bad that so much eff
fort and time should be necessary to
teach a child merely to spell the
words of his native tongue, and there
is a good deal to be said for simplified
spelling. But that reform is inevitably
sure to be long in coming, and, in the
meantime, there is nothing that gives
one more disagreeable sensation of
disappointment than to find misspelled
words in an otherwise well-written
letter. 1t implies ignorance and 1t is
difficult to believe that the writer of a
mtsspelled letter is better equipped In
other departments of knowledge.

UNCLE REVEALS HIS SECRET
And Now Nephew John Understands
Why His Aunt Always Returned
on Time.

The man who had been married %
years had the calm expression of one
lifted above the ordinary troubles OF
HE as he listened to the plant of his
nephew John. "She's been home with
her folks more'n two weeks now"
John complained. I'VE haven't been
married but two years, and this is the
third visit she's made. I'm willing to
have her go, but | want she should
come home at the end of fortnight.
But If | write and beg her to hurry,
she'll more'n likely stay a few days
longer yet, just to show her independ-
ence."
MN! Did you ever know your aunt
Mary to stay away longer'n we ex.
pected whilst you lived with us?"
asked his uncle.
No" said John. "She usually came
home day sooner than she promised,
| remember"
Mini" said his uncle. Just so.
Well, that was the result of my sys
TEN. She's never known it, but I'll
tell you, as you seem to be In straits
-Four or five days before time for
her to come home I'd send a kind of
test piece to her. Sometimes 'twould
be a remark asking her if she'd heard
the news about one or another.
Sometimes 'twould be the news col
umn chopped off right in the most in
teresting place. Sometimes I'd refer
to letter I'd had, and not say what
twas about. There's a lot of such
things coming handy when you look
for 'em.
Wen, soon as she could get a re-
turn mail to me she'd ask about the
thing, and tell me to be sure and write
more particulars next day. And some
way or other next day was always so
busy I'd just have time for note, or
maybe postal, saying, All we'll. No
news and next day | wouldn't have
time to write even that much.
Twas always the day after that
she came home; yes, sir, the morning
of the day after.
Now there's a chance for variety
in my system. You've got to study
the subject of the experiment, so to
speak, an adapt the system, but you'll
ind it'll work, every time, less the
girl you've got is different from any l
ever saw."-Youth's Companion.
