CHICAGO, Jan. 6.--Belief prevailed to-
day with a majority of wheat traders
that at least a temporary reaction was
due after the sudden big advance during
the last few days. Accordingly the market
averaged decidedly lower than for the

Desire to realize on holdings rather
than to undertake fresh commitments at
present was evidAnt from the outset In
the wheat pit. Oven exporters were said
to be reselling In limited way where a
Eood profit was to be had at once, and
there wass difficulty In obtaining imme-
diate ocean freight room.
Numerous rallies took place in the
wheat market. but quotations here at no
time succeeded In equalling yesterday 5
top level AS q rule, country dealers and
farmers remained steadfast In demanding
higher prices, and mlllers were active
buyers but the aggregate amount taken
by foreigners anywhere in the United

their tented city. Patrons can rest
assured that, no matter how hard it
rains. not drop can come through to

So far as we know, Robinson's is
the only show that has gone to the
extra expense of this material. 1t add
ed two thousand dollays to the cost
of the Robinson outfit, which is con-
siderable when you understand that
these tents last only one short season

other detail, the matter of cost has
been entirely diregarded by the man.

NICHOLAS FREPPEL.

Mr.. Nicholas Freppel, former
resident and business man of Wau-
seon died at St. Alexis hospital Cleve-
land, Thursday July 18th, of tuber-
cular meningitis. Mr.. Freppel who
until recently had seemed to be in ef
cellent health had been in poor
health for the past two or three
months and had submitted to several
operations in the effort to regain his
health; it became necessary for him
to dispose of his bakery in Kent, Ohio,
and he was contemplating returning
to Wauseon with his family at the
time that death came to him. "Nick"
as he was familiarly called was a gen
eral favorite among the citizens of
Wauseon; the esteem in which he was
held was evidenced by the fact that
he was chosen by the voters of the
village as a councilman and served
efficiently in that capacity. Funeral

EARLY OHIO PEACHES LATE.

The early peaches of Ottawa county,
the first for Ohio grown fruit, are
about one week later this year than
usual. These are the Mayfowers, a
new variety for the growers of this
section, and have put in their first
appearance on the market through
George Hollinshead of the Port Clin-
ton Fruit Company, who is the first
grower to introduce this peach in the
county. The fruit is highly colored
and although partial cling, has a
delicious peach flavor, and unlike some
of the earlier varieties it is free from
worms. Fighting the worms in the
early peach has been the big conten-
ton of the Ottawa county growers
and it has been only the past couple of
years that the worm has become al
most extinct; this is due to the extern
sive spraying and scientific culture
given the orchards. , There will be
several hundred bushels of the May
flower which will be followed bv the
Canadian Reds. There has been a
big demand for this fruit and some
dealers have endeavored to acquire
the entire output of some of the or
chards, but the growers would not con-
sent to this method of disposing of
their fruit this year, and are advocat-
ing wider distribution. The fruit has
been bringing the grower from $1.25
to $500 per bushel, packed in fifth
| baskets.

themselves too late, for at sunrise a
widow with a little daughter had
adopted a mother for herself and a
grandmother for her little one. And

medical service for her rheumatism
SO. ut eventide, the sun which had
fisen on a sad and hopeless woman
shed its rays upon a countenance
