10, THE POOR SQUIRREL.

It must be pretty tough to be a squirrel these golden October days with over $50 New Britain nimrods scouting the woods from daylight to dark in search of furry victims. City Clerk Thompson today issued his 55Oth hunting license. He says the bulk of these have been taken out since September, proving that most of the prospective hunters intend to utilize the privilege granted by the commonwealth of Connecticut. Game is reported to be scarce and there is little wonder when one learns that one city in the state has turned loose half a thousand hunters.

MISSIONER AFTER SLACKERS
H. D. Campbell Tells Convention Shirkers Have No place on This Earth and Tells Modern Fable.

IT. D. Campbell, chairman of the who speaks at the convention at the Peoples church, Court street, this afternoon at o'clock, is rather an original speaker. Last night, in an impassioned address on missions, he got after the ''shirkers," "slackers," "quitters," something after this fashion: What are you a Christian for, if you are not a missionary? What are you living for? What right have you to be alive on the earth? :? You don't belong down here! You belong up there, playing a harp. You seem to like an easy job; you belong up there.
 You have read Aesop's fables. Well, this is not one of them. A mule and an OK were yoke-fellows blowing the field of a good farmer. One day the OK got lazy, and next day decided to stay in his stall. The mule returned at night, weary with the double work of the day, and the OK lay there in the stall chewing his cud. He said to the mule, who was running his nose into the hay and Lll0 SItlIl 1)lu NIdSl0T Sdy tIy Cll1IlS about me today?' Between chews, the hungry mule answered, Nope!
 Next night, the mule came in more tired than before with the double duty. Again the OK, lying lazily there in the stall, asked: Did Master say anything about me today?' Nope" said the mule, more impatient than before. But this time the OK thought l,o joh 1jO O h he repeated his question; and the next. On the fifth night, when the tired mule was eating as before, he asked again: Did the Master say anything about me today?' The mule stopped chewing, turned toward the OK a sly glance out of the corner of his eye and said: Nope, Master didn't say anything about you to me; but I heard him call up the butcher and talk about you." The speaker did not have to draw the moral.

RUSSIAN CAME NORTH
 TO AID COUSIN AND
 FORCED TO REMAIN

Tom Gagof, a Russian who came north to aid his cousin, Alex Gagoif, who was executed at Whitehorse March 10 for the murdering of four men near that place several months previously, is now compelled to re- main at Whitehorse because United States immigration inspectors will not permit him to enter the United States. It was suspected by the police that Tom Gagoff desired to aid his cousin to defeat justice by giving him an opportunity to commit suicide. He was arrested and searched and a fully loaded, brand new revolver was found on his person. He was sentenc- ed to three months in jail, and last week was discharged from the bas- tile. In the meantime justice had been met through the hanging of his cousin.
 Gagof left Whitehorse for Skag- way, but was taken into custody by the immigration inspectors, who de- cided that he must return to White horse. He is still in the city at the head of Yukon navigation.-Ex,

onstrated before the expiration OF the
first hour by which time most gains
were forfeited. Industrials and EQUIP
ments related to the munitions group
were the heaviest features some OF
these issues falling under last Satur-
DAVIS quotations, with actual weakness
in Crucible, Baldwin and Industrial Al
cohol. United States Steeps gain was
soon wiped out and Bethlehem steer
dropped 3sh to 40. Rails were receo-
cd but in more moderate measure. FRO
gress toward completion OF the new
French loan was foreshadowed by the
further improvement OF exchange oi'

Grain Review

Chicago, April 17.--Reports that ow-
ing to unwelcome rains many fields in
the northwest were in bad shape again
rallied the wheat market today after
some display Of weakness at the out
set. Bearish cables and favorable
weather in the winter crop states were
responsible for the early downturns.
Opening prices, which varied from Il to
&c lower, with May at $1.15 to $1.15h
and July at $1.13s to $1.14h, were fol-
lowed by further declines, but then an
advance to well above Saturdays finish.
Bic stocks and the nearness Of the
opening Of lake navigation tended later
to cause decided setback and So too,
did the fact that any urgent export call
was lacking and that the submarine
issue with Germany was causing re-
newed anxiety. The close was unsettled,
nc to IN to SIC net lower, with May
at $1.14A @ " and July at 31.13%.
Corn paralleled the action of wheat.
Cash interests We're buying and offer
ings were light. After opening n a 4 c
off to nc up, the market scored sub
stantial gain all around.
Reports Of unfavorable weather In
Argentina and Of chances that much
replanting would be necessary In Okla
homa prevented any material reaction.
Oats seemed to have no independ-
ence. Narrow changes reflected the
course of other cereals
Continued demand for lard strength
ened the provision list. Weakness in the
hog market exercised only transient
depressing influence.
