WHEAT RECORDS
ARE ALL BROKEN

CHICAGO, Jan. S.-Smashing of
war record prices for wheat began
promptly today at the first gong on
change. Opening quotations were "a
to 1-5c above last night. May wheat,
the leading option, jumped to $1.39%,
as against $1.3S%, the tip top for
yesterday. Reports of an ultimatum
to Turkey by Italy and an explosive
effect with buyers.
On a second wave of buying, May
wheat went to $1.40 a bushel, the
highest figures with few exceptions in
so years, the parallel thus going back
broadly to the American Civil war.
Today's high prices were supported
by dispatches telling of excitement in
the grain trade at Liverpool, and ad-
hitting that demand there was keen.
In the final hour another cent a
bushel was added to the previous va
lues. so that May wheat was quoted at
$1.41 a bushel. Meanwhile it was an
nounced that bids from Great Britain
at the American seaboard had risen
four cents as compared with yesterday
1t was also stated that a cargo of
durum wheat had been sold at $2.07
delivered in Italy. Only "a hours ago,
it was thought a marvel to get 1891
for durum delivered abroad.
Before the day was over, commits
sion houses found it necessary to de-
mand a big increase Of margins from
customers who sought to trade in who
The violent changes in the market
resulted in a margin of 10 cents a
bushel being generally required. Re-
Gently 5 cents a bushel has been the
rule. The doubling of margins put
spectators under a handicap, and
oon reduced the volume of pit tran
sactions.

SPARKS PAYROLL
WILL Be LARGER

The shops have started for the
new year on a ive-day basis. The
men have worked the five days this
week and the notice will be posted
today announcing the lay off of the
men for Saturday, but work will
commence Monday again and so far
as can be leaned will continue in
the same manner. This order affects
about 600 men and means a greater
payroll than Sparks has had for
some time.
There is quite a large amount of
unfinished work in the shops and the
outlook appears to be that the time
OF the men will be increased, rather
than diminished. When the condi-
lions on the road are good there is
rlenty of work in Sparks for two
or thrre hundred more men and 1t
is sincerely hoped hat business will
increase in such a manner that there
will be a call for all of the road men
that are at hand TO handle the traffic.

RAISING MONEY FOR THE COLLEGES.

HISTN o n COLIEGES.
ONE Of the most remarkable achievements in raising mon % educa-
ton has Just closed, when the girls of Wellesley college secured ST.
100000 to win $75OpG0 offered by the Rockefeller foundation, for the re-
construction of the burned college buildings.
With but few exceptions, the Colleges of the country are constant
beggars. They meet with a friendly response when they get into the
bread line, but often get more sympathy than cash. The Wellesley girls
had to invent a IL kinds Of schemes, teas, dances, lectures, cooking, laun-
drywork, etc. These did not count much individually, but advertised the
movement
Colege presidents used to be specialized scholars, who held their po
siton by the depth of their erudftion. Today they are the head of a
great business plant, and the captains in command of the industry of
money raising. The time that they used to spend in studying Latin and
Greek antiquities must now go to hunting through the social bluebooks
for mnLionaires able to give up.
The old time scholar president would be helpless before the modern
problem of running a students dormitory. This is II o question Of geometry
or literary criticism, but one of buying beef and potatoes and milk,
cooking them to satisfy hungry girls from critical families, and selling the
board at a safe figure.
In this way some of the finer ideals of college seIusion have to go.
But perhaps the colleges come closer to life as they arm their bread and
butter. The Wellesley girls who have been making candy or baking
bread. to win dollars for alma mater. may have acquired quite as much
Of the worlds useful wisdom as If they had spent the time studying Chau-
Ger, Euclid, or Mllett

LIBRARIES AND NEWSPAPERS.

THE League Of Library Committees, which has been holding a N
venton at Chicago the past week has been considering the matter Of
dropping newspapers from library reading rooms, on the ground that
newspapers are SO accessible to all that they are OF essential to IL
braries. The committee seems likely to recommend that the libraries
discontinue taking them.
II they do 1t there would be a big protest. In the reading room in
a large library, the newspaper section is what draws the crowd. Men
will hang around for a n hour waiting for their turn to read a favorite
journal -
Compsred with a library magazine room, the newspaper section
seem far more valuable al a popular educator. The magazine readers
spend their time over trifing fiction or padded articles written to go
with certain pictures. The newspaper is read to learn about real things
that actually happen.
An hour spent in looking W the journals from ear and distant
cities, is e broadening experience. One gets the points of view OF other
states, communities, and sections of social life. The more newspapers a
man reads. the more he sees that there are two sides o every argument
The very BEST newspaper must be n sided, If 1t is to present it's points
of view with any force and enthusiasm. Only by learning what they
think o the other side of the debate. over in the next state, O. acrosst the
country, will ne see the whole truth.
Publishers have always been divided as to whether it is a business
advantage to furnish newspapers to libraries. Some say it reduces the
sale of their journals, while others regard it IS excellent advertising. But
the public will sooner see the books and magazines thrown out of the
reading rooms before it permits the newspapers to go.

BROKEN

BROKEN RESOLUTIONS.
ONE Of the periodic jokes of January is the number of men who
swear off o various bad habits, and then drop back to their old ways
in a few weeks.
1t is one thing to make a good resolution at home in the security
of ones freside with your wife looking at you, and Mothers picture over
the fire place. Quite another thing to keep it when you get out with
the boys ct 1 a. m. Saturday night
Yet a m a who Is going to command other LEI along the path
ways Of lie ought to be able to command himself. II he can't stick to a
certain line OF conduct for a couple of weeks, it is not likely that he
could brave the difficulties of any advanced business position If it should
come to him.
A man who expects to do large things in life must expect to stand
a good deal of rdicule. The people who him will find his ideas
ridiculous. The people who wish to take advantage of him will try to
beitle him. Hence 1t is excellent practice to make a resolution of
some kind, and zee II you can live up to it. After you find O can, then
you have n real excuse for quitting, If it seems best.
