evening Grain Letter.

Chicago, Aug. .---Wheat--The mar
ket opened fairly steady and under
heavy foundations chiefly on the part
OF local longs. There was no special
reason for the break that we can see
except that the market was overbought
and new buying did not appear in suf-
ficient volume to sustain values. North
western news was of the same tenor
as heretofore although there was We're
some rather optimistic views express
ed, as for instance by The Northwest
ern Miller which predicted a maj
yield of $50, 100000 to 175,000,000 bush
els for three states. The northwestern
markets led in weakness today as they
did in strength yesterday. We still
feel that on the breaks wheat should
be bought.

Langdon, N. D., Aug. 5.-With the
destruction of their home by FIRE and
the burning to death of their daugh-
ter In the flames less than three
weeks ago, the John Renner family
of Rosehill is once more grief-strick-
en-, as Mrs. Renner lies at her home
lin such serious condition from in
juries that she received in runaway
that 1t is believed she cannot recover.
Her horse took fright at a passing
automobile, the buggy smashing into
a mail box at the crossroads, and she
was thrown out and received internal
injuries. A daughter riding with her
was uninjured.
Mr.. and Mrs. Jacob Goertzen adopts
ed strenuous means of saving their
child from injury when their team
ran away, for they picked out place
in the ditch filed with water into
which to throw the girl and then they
themselves jumped. The baby, only
years old, received only a few slight
bruises.

Arbor Day.

Friday, May 5, has been named as
Arbor and Bird Day in a proclama-
tion which has just been issued by
Gov. Francis E. McGoyern. The
proclamation reads as follows:
The authority of law and in har-
mony with custom, l, Francis E. Nc
Govern, governor of the state of
Wisconsin, do hereby designate Fri
day, May 5, AS Arbor and Bird day.
To create in the children of our schools
an interest in trees, shrubs, flowers
and birds and to cultivate an appre-
citation of the beauties Of nature,
Arbor and Bird day has been estab-
lished. 1t is therefore recommended
that this day be utilized by the people
and schools in making their surround
ings attractive by the planting of
trees, shrubs and flowers.
In the hope that there may De an
earnest and intelligent effort to enlist
the sympathies and services of the
people, more especially in our rural
and suburban communities, in i'm
proving the surroundings of homes
and schoolhouses, / hereby publish
this proclamation.
In testimony whereof, L have here
unto set my hand and caused the great
seal of the state of Wisconsin to be
affixed. Done at the capitol, in the
city of Madison, the third day of
March, in the year of our Lord, one
thousand nine hundred and eleven.

,SociahStic Milwaukee.

Mayor Emil Seidel in public adj
dress last Thursday night said that
Circuit Judge +. G. Eschweiler's re-
cent decision in the Mullen case sis a
political decision for a political pur-
pose to help out political gang that
is whipped to a finish" The decision
in substance, was that the one-man
commission of public works is illegal.
1t is always possible to find one man
on a bench dirty enough to do po-
litical trick, and in this case they
found their man." continued the
mayor.
These things are very Shelpful to
Milwaukee and the state of Wiscon-
sin, all over the country. They give
to the outside world a fine impression
of the character of our people-espec-
tally those in Milwaukee-and empha-
size the respect in which the courts
are held. A man seeking business
location and peaceful community
where life and property are accorded
the full protection of the law would
naturally be impressed by the denun-
ciatory statement of the mayor of
Milwaukee. To the fair-minded, law
abiding citizen, such outbursts do in
calculable harm, and call for either
the impeachment of Judge Eschweiler
or Jail sentence for Mr.. Seidel for
contempt of court.

The War Scare.

When the "ruler of the navee, and
of the armee"-the commander of
the United States, land and naval
forces'-in other words the president
gathers his war ships and his brigades
around our neighbor Mexico. he very
carefully avoids giving us an explana-
ton. Perhaps he considers it none of
our business, or perhaps he thinks we
are pretty simple SO that we will
swallow such an obviously foolish ex-
PLANTATION as that the move is Just to
give the army some practice IN camp
life. Whatever the reason of his Sc
crecy as to the real cause of the move,
he has done fine thing for the daily
papers.
One day they have told us it was
this, the next day that, and the next
the other, great danger, or calamity,
or what not, and so they have in
creased their circulation temporarily
to an amazing extent. Meanwhile
the lawyer who holds the office of
president and incidentally rules the
''nayee and the armee'' keeps busy
'sayin muffin" like Brer Rabbit, and
the people are for the moment dis
tracted from their maleyolent thoughts
against the post office department,
the trusts, the Tariff, and some other
nice boys that are bashful and don't
like to be stared at, by everybody all
the time.

The Brain Is Very Adaptable.

Each vocation makes different call
upon the brain and develops faculties
and qualities peculiar to itself, so that
as the various professions. trades and
specialties multiply the brain takes on
lew adaptive qualities. thus giving
greater variety and strength to civ
ilization as mass, says Orison SWEET
Marden in Success Magazine.
When the world was young the
brain of man was very primitive, be-
cause the demand upon II was largely
for self protection and the acquisition
of food, which called only for the de-
velopment of its lower. its animal
part. As civilization advanced, how
ever. there was higher call upon the
brain and a more varied develop
ment until today, in the highest civ
llization. ii has become exceedingly
