OPPORTUNITIES come to COM
munties as they do individuals
and it is not often that oppOrtu-
nifty knocks twice at the same
door. There is many town that
has gone backward simply be-
cause of shortsightedness of it's
citizens who refused to EN- brace
the opportunities that presented
themselves. Towns have dug
their own graves and erected
their tombstones because they
declined to live Watch for the
opportunities and make the best
of them-they are knocking
every day in some way or other.
The formation of the National
Progressive Republican League in
the fight between the insurgents
and standpatters to control the Re-
publican party is exciting consider
able comment. The President is
said to be concerned over the matter
and to regard it as an attempt to
contest his denomination in 1912,
He is undecided whether to appear
Indifferent to the League or to pre-
pare to oppose it's activities, The
attitude OF Theodore Roosevelt
toward the League is also causing
much specializing. From his utter
ances in the Outlook and on the
platform. he is thought to be entire
ly in accord with the principles of
the new organization. but whether
he endorses its reported Intention
of urging. the nomination of Senator
LaFollette is an undecided question.
The principles of the League are
brief. IT aims to restore govern
ment to the hands of the people;
to provide for popular election of
Senators; to prevent corrupt use
of money in elections; to secure di-
rect primaries; to simplify presiden-
tial elections; and to establish the
initiative referendum and recall.
This enunciation of so called Repub-
Iican principles sounds like a poiti-
cal platform written by William
Jennings Bryan. and demonstrates
how much political lines have
been shifted in present years.

T|M|D|TY AFFECTS THE WHEAT MARKET Heavy Movement of New Crop Was Added Weight
 Upon Values

Chicago, July S.-Timidity in regard to wet and cooler weather pulled the wheat market down today in the last hour of the session. The heavy movement of the new crop was also big weight upon values. Closing figures were Aq12c un- der last nights. Corn and oats finished unchanged to within Ac decline. Hog products made a ragged windup, varying from 21sc advance to 2214c falling off.
 At first the wheat market acted in ao- cordance with unfavorable crop reports from the northwest There was rumor that black rust had been found near Comstoek, N D., but the story was de- nied Firm cables also were interpreted as due in part at least to previous up- turns on this side of the Atlantic. Grad ually attention centered on predictions of showers and of lower temperatures north- west. Besides, cutting was reported as al- ready In progress in several sections near the heart of the spring crop belt Thresh- ing returns from the winter belt showed yields large Furthermore, receipts at all the principal points were reaching aston Ishing totals The country, nevertheless,
 
 In consequence, the market sagged until not only all early gain had been lost but a material loss had been scored. During the day September ranged from 91c to 921sc and closed weak, 1sc net lower, at 9l}sc.
 Profit-taking gave corn sharp setback from an initial advance. Outsiders in general, and the southwest in particular, sold out, anticipating a possible surprise when the government figures are an- nounced at the close Monday. September fiuetuated between 659sc and 6s&o, closing a shade net lower but firm at 65Ac. Cash grades were steady; No. yellow finished at 6Sa4@64c.
 Heavy realizing by longs formed the rule in oats. Beforehand. however, there had been a decided swell account of the corn strength High and low levels for September were 47c and 46c. with lat est tradings 46Ac, a decline of 5sc from last night.
 Packers took the selling side of pro- visions. Support was poor and the mar ket weakened, but in rather cratic fash ton Ultimately pork was off l06p215c, but
 changes otherwise were less than a dime.

Rooster Was Drunk

Sayville (L. I) Cor. New York Press.
 Mrs. Acton W. Smiths prize rooster, Chantecler. is the most dilapidated look Ing daylight greeter in Long Island, and all because it got so drunk on fermented canned cherries that it's owner thought the rooster dead and plucked more than half the feathers out for pillow stuffing before it "came to- With one side totally denuded of feathers. with the feathers on the other side gone, in spots, and with the long tail feathers missing, Chantecler Is so disreputable looking that the heans re- fuse to look at the rooster.
 The situation is made all the more distressing by the fact that a cockerel that formerly fled when Chantecler ap- preached has now become the overlord of the chicken yard, and passes fully half it's time chasing the former cock of the walk out of the way.
 Chantecler was so tipsy this evening that the bird had to be assisted 10 its pearch It fell off three times before get ting staying grip. When one of the Smiths went out to the chicken house with a lantern at 10 o'clock to night to see
 how the bird was getting along, the rooster was so drunk it thought day had broke and began. to crow. Since then
 the growing has continued at close in- tervals and challenging retorts are heard from all the other roosters in the neigh borhood. Sleepless chicken raisers say it
 merely goes to show how one drunken | rooster can demoralize a neighborhood. Mrs. Smith feels sorry she threw the fermented cherries where Chantecler could get them. She is sorry, too, that she began to remove the plumage from her pet without feeling the rooster's pulse or applying an instrument to ascertain whether it's heart was still beating. It was not until Chantecler squawked vio- lently and fiopped to the floor just as she had pulled the last tail feather that she realized the sad truth.

Scene of Burr's COurtinq

From Browning's Magazine.
 There still stands in the Paramus valley, 20 miles from New York in Bergon county N. J., well preserved and kept the mansion in which Aaron Burr courted the beautiful Estelle Provost, widow of an officer in the British army, herself an ardent royalist during the revolution
 Tn the days of this courtship Burr s command in the American army was stationed at White Plains, N J., and he was accustomed to ride from there to Paramus on horseback to the wooing of his lady love, making the journey to and fro between sunset and dawn. The mansion, known as The Hermi- tage, is of rough stone with Gothic peaks. picturesque turnstile admits visitors 10 the extensive grounds.
 Not far away is the old church, like wise as it was in those perlious and romantic days when Burr and the falr widow, his persistent and ardent wooing having won her, were married. Adjoining and belonging to this church IS an ancient burying ground many or whose moss grown gravestones have quaint and grotesque inscriptions, One offers this cheerful invitation:
 Dear Brother and Sister,
 Come visit our Tune:
 Prepair for Grim Deth,
 For this is your Dune.

Wreath of LOcusts
From Fur News.

FIoHl h UT NeNS.
 James o. Kichline of North Bethlehem, Pa, has a unique ,relic of the invasion in 1885 of the 17-year locusts in this vicinity. When locusts by the millions oveIran the country he spent his spare time gather ing the insects.
 Then at his leisure he constructed out of them a wreath and star. He took a year to do this, and in the construction of the wreath used many thousands of To- custs.
 The wreath itself is composed entirely of locusts' wings, arranged in flower and leaf fashion. The stars center IS also composed of locusts' wings, while the six points are made of whole locusts.
 The background of the star is made of leaves of the locusts' wings. The wreath and star stand two feet high by three feet wide and this piece is but one of the many novelties made during the lifetime of MT. Kichline, who is "A years old.

SUCCESS

A man who has made a happy home for his wife and children,
 no matter what he has not done in the way of achieving wealth and honor; if he has done that he is a grand success. If he has not done that, it is his own fault though he be the highest in the land, he is a most pitiable failure. We wonder how many men in a mad pursuit of gold. which char acterizes the age, realize that there is no fortune which can be left to their families as great as the memory of a happy home.

ENEMY DODGER

Heaven help the man who imagines he can dodge enemies by trying to please everybody! If such an individual ever succeeds pass him over this way that we may have one look at his mortal remains ere he vanishes away for surely tbis earth cannot be his abiding place. Now we do not infer that one should be going through this world trying to find beams to knock and thump his head against, disputing every mans opinion, fighting and el- lowing and crowding all who diff fer from him. That. again IS another extreme. Other people have their opinions, so have you. Don't fall into the error of sup posing they will respect you more for turning your coat every day, to match the color of theirs.

The notice added that the bishop would hold a basket meeting in connection herewith and closed with a great time is anticipated.

Little arms encircling the neck will make the heart light, over which no diamonds sparkle. All the grand pictures and splendid works of art one can possess will never adorn a room as do the smiling faces of those dearest to us. The things that may be bought are pleasant to have, nor is wealth to de despised: but nev- CT pity the poor man who has the wealth that gold cannot buy nor the woman whose jewels are those of which Cornelia was so proud good and obedient son.
