SUN AS AN ARTIST

THERE is wide variety in the pace at
which the sun can give color or change
it. A winter apple may be a month in reach
ing its ruddiness, peach may take only one
week to flush into its mantle of maturity;
but the most nimble work of the solar ray in
its decoration of fruit and flower is not to be
compared with what it accomplishes in other
departments. When its power was brought
to bear upon some familiar chemicals, it was
found that its action was reduced from days
to seconds.
Upon this discovery turn all the wonders
of photography. At first silver nitrate-or
lunar caustic. as it was commonly called
was used in the camera. From time to time
other substances of greater and greater sensi-
tiveness to light have been produced, every
one of them successfully giving the solar
beam a wider play and more astonishing
power.
Today, with the exposure of photo
graphic plate, not only are the beatings of an
insect wings caught in the camera, but also
the path of cannonball, the skyward flight
of exploded rock, and the sinuous CLINT of
lightning.

Zhulik turned him over. In his hand he
clutched needle On his middle finger was
a thimble His lips were blood stained. His
eyes were wide open, but motionless.
Zhulik, all in tremor, rushed out OF the
room. They were playing the first act of the
operetta. The orchestra was leading the
chorus of men and women, who were singing
Justify. The stage manager pranced about
the back of the setting. preparing to strike
the scene. Zhulik shouted to him:
"Come in here! | must see you at once!'
The curtain descended, and with a rush
the stage manager and his assistants bounced
upon the scene and took it apart. The cho-
rus people were leaving the stage to rest be-
tween the acts. Zhulik waved his arms to
them:
"For Gods sake, someone get doctor!"
One of the chorus men went out to tele-
phone for a DOCTOR When he arrived he
said that Yekl had been dead for sometime.
AS Zhulik sat in Herr Knobel's dressing
room, alone with the body, he heard the
opening chorus of the second act. The Yid-
dish theater world rolled on without its dew
otee.

coughed.
rasping voice.
Zhulik recognized Yekl. any God! what
are YOU doing here?' he exclaimed, taking
the trembling figure by the arm and leading
him to the stage. "You ought to be in bed
on this wet night
an bed or not in bed, what's the differ
ence? | can't sleep. Something don't let
me Sleep" cried Yekl, his voice shrill but
weak.
Zhulik walked him into Herr Knobel's
dressing room.
Il can't stand it no more" whimpered
Yekl @They are running Herr Knobel. |
feel it in my bones. What's to become OF
him without me?'
He removed the calico curtains from the
closets where the costumes were hung. He
fingered them with loving, sensitive hand,
murmuring to himself, shaking his head as
if sorry for them There they were, the
habiliments of Kings and Princes; but how
altered! The loving care he had bestowed
upon them was obliterated by the patches
of unskilful hands.
Zhulik sought to persuade him to return
home; but he seemed possessed with fever
ish, uncanny determination to bring order
out of the chaos He pleaded with Zhulik,
caressed him, placed his emaciated hands
upon the lapels of his coat, and his eyes filled
with tears.
II want when Herr Knobel comes back
from the road, said Yekl wistfully, 3that he
finds all his costumes in good order. And
then you tell him who done it for him, and
maybe"
HERR KNOBEL being on the road, Zhu
: lik did not return to the theater until
the next evening after the performance had
begun. AS he entered the dressing room he
remembered Yekl The costumes were scat
tered on the floor. There were pieces of cloth
strewn about. He saw Yekl's hat in one
corner, his coat in another. He walked over
anxiously to one of the closets. Huddled in
one corner lay Yekl, apparently asleep in his
shirt sleeves.
"Wake up, Yekl!" he shouted, shaking the
inanimate form.
But Yekl did not wake up.

vorce that were incomprehenslble, and the
more he pondered them the less he under
stood them.
THE other person who scanned the days
! news with relish was James Leander
Steingall, Inspector in charge of the New
York Detective Bureau who, IN the opinion
of his devoted spouse, was unduly thought
full as he asked for second helping of kid
neys and bacon that Sunday morning. Who
soever suggested "Leander' as a euphonious
name to be interposed between James and
"Steingall" had gone rather by sound than
sense; for no one more unlike the lovelorn
youth who swarm the Hellespont once too
often could possibly be imagined than the
burlv Inspector He was big. roundly built
man, bullet-headed, close-cropped, with
round eyes, round limbs, and a huge fist that
closed in ball. Presumably, even in in
fancy, these characteristics were latent but
decipherable.
But his eyes were very blue and highly
intelligent, and his lips could wrinkle into
kindly though somewhat inscrutable smile,
and his better half knew that some welghty
question was troubling his active brain as
he fingered over the one meal in the week
that he could enjoy at leisure
Sunday mornings breakfast was Mrs.
Steingall's special time for learning those
little titbits of New York's life with which
the public is never RECALLED. Even in crimi-
rlal trial of the utmost notoriety there are
side issues known to the authorities that are
not allowed to appear in print: II Mrs;
Stengall had kept diary, and had Jotted
down therein everything she was told on
fifty-two Sundays in the year during the last
twenty years, She could have produced
book that would break the record in sales,
and keep the courts busy for months.
She was far too wise wife to seek direct
information. Taking her turn at the news
paper, she read the Narragansett "sensa-
ton" Il shouldn't be at all astonlshed If
those two came together again, she said.
(Which two?" inquired the great man,
carefully cutting the end off a cigar. :.
@Mr. Waverton and his wife, of course.
@Why? Because he saved the baby''

tically went from the train to the ocean, and
jumped in after the little girl; though there
was strong tide running, and he could use
only one arm.
"You have missed the real coincidence,
my DEAR said Steingall, and his blue eyes
twinkled.
3What is that"
"Read. the message from Atlantic City

Steingall "What do you make of it,

clumps of sweet peas were battling vigor-
ously against the strenuous climate of Brook

progress, he returned to the house and tele-

Delamar's New Jersey address in the record
of the Atlantic City tragedy, the two clever

the same problem, though with more knowl-

CHICAGO GRAIN MARKET.

Chicago Aug. 16.-Unsettled weath- CT and a continuance of cast demand helped to run all grain values up to- day. At times shorts. seeking to coy- CT, induced rapid advances. The close was strong in all lines with wheat from 5-Sc to 7-Sc up Corn finished 5-Sc to lc higher and oats showed SSc to 5-Sc gain while provisions were from 5c to 12 2l-2c higher.
 Expectations of lighter arrivals based on rainy weather forecasts for practically the entire producing area was a large factor in advancing wheat prices. Lower cables had lit tle deterrent effect. The upturn caused local shorts to hurry to cover. giving sharp gains toward the close fthe day. Primary receipts were 357,000 bushels larger than a year ago. Spot corn felt the upturn in- duced by showers over the northern portion of the corn belt more than the distant deliveries, though the market was strong all through the list. Con- mission selling held prices within moderate limits and offerings of old crop increased.
 Cash product was higher with a fair demand. The close was near the top, September making a net gain of 1c, finishing at 70-5-Sc, after touch ing 70 7Sc, the low being 69 7-Sc. No. 2 yellow was quoted at 7S 1-4@34
 Oats followed the major grains within narrow limits. The close was slightly below top prices. December moved between 33 1-4c and 32 3-4c, closing 3Sc to 1-2c higher at S9 1-Sc
 Increased demands for the January products was salient provisions fea- tures Final prices for October were uniformly 1-2e higher, with pork 1892 1-2, lard, 1112 1-2 and ribs, HOO

BRADsTREEr's STATEMENT.

New York. Aug 1G.- Bradstreet to- morrow will say:
 Trade, crop and industrial devel- opments are of gratifying character and movements in general are for ward. The cereal crop situation is even brighter than heretofore Fodder crops are larger than were antcipat- ed while ago. Corn, though still backward, has made progress, save in part of the northwest, but the plant will require warm weather and a late arrival of frost to carry 1t to maturity.
 Incidentally, the iron and steel trades continue to surge forward at a more profitable rate In some of the more prosperous farming regions there is a renewed movement to pay off outstanding obligations, and while collections in parts of the south re- main slow there is evidence of im- provement in payments.
 Orders for dry goods are numer- ous at western, southwestern and northwestern centers, but in the east some branches denote less activity than heretofore. Mems wear and dress goods are still active and prices are firmer.
 Business failures in the United States for the week ending Aug. 15, were 22l, against 221 last week. 215 in the like week of 1911, 222 in 1910, 1S3 in 1909 and 236 in 1908.

iron furnaces have practically con- tracted all of the output for the third quarter. Bessemer billets are firm at $23 Pittsburg. and open hearth at $2350 Pittsburg. Demand for mer- chant steel bars, plates and shapes continues to tax capacity. while tin plate and sheets are very active, with prospect of advance in quotations.
 We'll maintained activity is still tho leading feature in dry goods. Some hesitation was caused in the cotton goods division by the substantial de- cines in raw cotton, but the only eff feet noted was a slight softening in print cloths.
 A few sales were reported for China shipment but export there as whole is slow.

and more general selling. which evil dently resulted from private reports oI rains or showers in previously dry sections of south Texas.
 Offerings were very heavy in the late trading, when it was remembered that some of yesterdays biggest buy CTS were reduring their lines and the market closed at the lowest point of the day. Most of the private ca bles received attributed the weakness of Liverpool to liquidations of buyers for a reaction or continental selling. but one report was received via new Orleans which claimed that Liverpool had been flooded by offerings of new crop shipments from the southwest and this probably attracted more at. tention for the reason that new crop receipts at Houston were larger than for the same day last year Private adyices from Houston said that the showers reported in South Texas would delay the movement but would add to the volume of the crop. The private crop report issued at the op- ening made the condition 76.7, against 7S.9 two weeks ago.

TYPOGRAPHICAL UNION
 ADMINISTRATION WINS
SEVERE REBUkE IS ADOPTED AGAINST CHICAGO FRESHMEN
 AND sTEREoTYPERs.

Cleveland. O., Aug. 16.-The con
 vention of the International Typo | graphical Union today unanimously endorsed the officers and executive council and the officers and executive council of the stereotypers and elec- trotypers unions for their attitude to- ward the Chicago pressmens strike. The vote ended one of the hottest fights of the convention
 The striking pressmen were con- demned by the Investigating commit tee for refusing arbitration and for having sought to ge the lnterna trades unions into the fight. The stereotypers in Chicago were found guilty by the committee of having yio- lated contracts and the strike order itself was denounced as "a blunder worse than a crime
 The committee report practically reiterated the statements regarding the strike that had been made before the convention by James J. Freel, president of the stereotypers charg ing in addition that a certain Chicago l labor publication libelled and misrep- resented international officers and did all in it's power to keep the strlk- CTS agitated.
 Concluding, the report read:
 This committee cannot too strong ly condemn the methods and tactics used in Chicago. and your committee believes that not only should the in- ternational officers of our organiza ton be commended for the courage they pursued, but they should be instructed in the future to see to 1t that every renewal of the attempt to embroil is in needless difficulties made by any other international union is promptly exposed and combatted."
 The convention adopted resolutions aiming at investigation of the school text book situation and the spread of propaganda for union printing of such books.
 The ladies auxiliary concluded it's work today without having adjusted the difficulties caused by the walk out of Mrs Frank w. Long of Gin cinnaH, secretary and treasurer, who took with her few supporters and the books and records It was re- ported today that Mrs c. r. Mckee of Philadelphia, president had gone into court and sworn out a warrant against Mrs Long, but it seems that no formal process was issued.

NEW YORK COTTON MARKET.

New York, Aug. 16.-There was a renewal of heavy general selling after some early irregularity in the cotton market today and prices lost a large part of their recent gain, with the close weak at a net decline of from 90 to 35 points.
 The market opened steady at a de- cline of 6 to Ii points in sympathy with weak Liverpool cables. There Was good buying at the initial figures, owing to a private crop report indi-
