DOLLAR WHEAT, IDEAL OF
FARMER, GETS A SETBACK
Stock Market Weakness Chief Cause
of the Fall.

Chicago, Oct. 27.-Dollar wheat, the
farmers ideal, suffered a setback to-
day on change. For the first time in
quite while, the December option
went down into he nineries, selling
off cent and a half bushel to 99A. /.
The market was chiefly affected by
the weakness in the stock market re-
sulting from the government proce-
dure against the United States Steel
Corporation.
Heavy stop orders were executed
when December wheat got below the
dollar level, many longs refusing to
let profits run into losses. Support
from bull leaders was necessary to
prevent the market whirling into de-
moralization. December options stood

Pekin, Oct. 27.-It was authorita-

that at the instigation of Yuan Shi

1t was also officially stated that
Yuan Shi Kai will proceed to San Yian
Chow tomorrow to assume supreme
command of the imperial army.
The foreign ministers here have ex-
changed communications with Lii upon
several subjects. They objected to his
announcement that vessels carry
ing contraband would be subject to
confiscation, and also to his proposal
to administer the customs revenue at
the port of Yang Use Kiang and other
cities. The latter objection was based
on the fact that the revenues are
pledged as security for foreign loans
and should be turned over to the. Brit

RAIN STICK is STARS
IN VERBAL MIRACLE

SEATTLE, Nov. 27-Noah, yclept
Webster, has been on record long
time with the claim that an umbrella
is screen, shade or guard carried
in the hand for the purpose of shelter
ing lorgnette lifters and breadwinners
from the rays of Old Sol, or from rain,
hail, sleet, snow and other cloud eff
fects.
That definition may go in certain
quarters, but not with Sandy Barbati,
of 521 King street, Seattle.
On the contrary, believes Sandy,
shower stick is the busiest little crea-
tor of cerebellum cyclones extant
Sandy believes that way, fully real
izing that, under section 1 of the I'm
written Laws of the Universe, an UNI
brella is regarded as legitimate
plumber, and to register a roar when
ones parachute is purloined is merely
to bring forth smiles, singers or
snarls, as the case may be.
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1911-11-27
Justifies His Run-In.

Fully approaching this, Sandy justi-
fed his run-in with Frank Frantic, by
pointing out section z of the Unwritten
Laws of the Universe, which, Sandy
maintains, says that the owner, les
see or manager of an umbrella is en-
titled to fay the fantods out of any
glue-fingered galoot who takes, steals
or carries away the same with the in
tent to defraud the owner, lessee or
manager thereof
After looking up the law Sandy
looked up Frank last night, and want
ed to know how about it.
Franks only answer was to make
good as a follower of the Greek phil
OsOpher Zeno.
The accused's stoicism made no sort
of a slam with Sandy
Taking mental peek at section of
the Unwritten Laws of the Universe,
Sandy threatened to open up Franks

coming tower, and take a look at his
pericranium. Even this portion of the
philippe put no fear in Franks
heart
Swat is Semi SOmmniferOus.
Rather, opined Frank, it was time
that Sandy got off the globe.
Sandy took another mental slant at
section 1 of the Unwritten Laws of the
Universe, and then tapped Frank on
the temporal bone. The swat was
semi-sommniferous but Sandy follow
ed it up with an ooft to the fbula.
At this juncture Patrolman a L.
Humphrey hog-tied Sandy.
Frank told Police Judge John B.
Gordon that Sandy took umbrage too
soon after he took the umbrella. 1t
was just little mistaken, anyway.
Notwithstanding the fact that Judge
Gordon allowed Frank to escape with
out a nick in his bank roll, Sandy
firmly believes in the efficacy of sec
ton 2 of the Unwritten Laws of the
Universe.

One of Lees closest white friends
says the Chinaman has been involved
in several similar cases and has been
fieeced out of large sums of money by
adventures through alleged promises
of marriage He thinks that Lees re-
puted wealth is the chief attraction
and that this has made him mark for

defend the action and that the woman
will get nothing for her trouble and
the accompanying notoriety in the
