CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE.

! Chicago, June 20.-Unwelcome wet
weather both in the southwest and
the northwest tended to force up the
price of wheat. Largely in conse-
quence the market finished strong,
| "a to | &c net higher, with July at
S1.0S% and September at $1.057s
Corn gained l q q 1ac to rs a a
and oats q to e a u c. In provisions,
the outcome varied from sc decline to
rise of 2Oc.
Wheat values received their greatest
upward impetus from the fact that
widespread rains threatened interfer-
ence with harvest operations in the
winter crop states. especially Kansas
and Illinois. Higher quotations from
Liverpool and decline on ocean
freight rates tended also to induce
buying.
Just before the close the wheat mar
ket suddenly tightened to the high
est point of the day. as a result of
sellers having awakened to the fact
that one of the strongest concerns
on change had absorbed all the sur
plus offerings.
Corn bulged in price owing to cold
weather, and too much rain The
scantiness of receipts was a feature.
Oats We're more uniformly in demand
than other cereals.
Heavy realizing sales by holders OF
lard and ribs caused at one time a
sharp setback in provision prices The
final averages of quotations, however,
showed a net gain in accord with an
advance in the value of hogs.
Wheat-July, $1.03 q Sept, $1.O5 q.
Corn-July, 73ssc; Sept, 7Sssc.
oats-July, S95sc, Sept, $3.50.
Pork--July, $2S.S2; Sept, $3.50.
Lard--July, $500; Sept, $1S.17.
Ribs-July, 1885; Sept, $3.50,

Johns, Democratic Committee
Decides.

DIES MONIES, Dec. Ex-senator
John M, Lindley of Winfield was
elected to the democratic state CEN
trail committee from the first district
to succeed the late A. E. Johns Of
Fort Madison, at a meeting of the
state committee held yesterday aft
ernoon at the Kirkwood hotel.
It was decided by the committee
that the contest Of the election OF
George C. Scott OF Sioux City, who
defeated Congressman T. J. Steele
for reelection from the eleventh dis
trict, will be supported by the demo
cratic party Of the state and carried
through to a definite conclusion.
SCOTS plurality Of less than zoo
votes has led steele's friends to be-
Iieye that sufficient error can be
found by recount to assure his re-
election.
At the meeting Of the state COM
mittee the financial reports Of the Of
ficers and various subcommittee for
their work during the past year were
submitted and approved. The cleo
ton of Senator Lindley to the COM
mittee came in the nature of COM
promise between the two other can
didates, E. p. Armknecht Of Donnell-
SON and N c. Roberts Of Fort Madl-
son. both Lee county candidates.

Most Of OR Yuletide
Customs.

Christmas, Is generally considered
as a festival to commemorate the birth
of Christ. But in reality it Is said
among people of Germantc ancestry.
including the English. the celebration
of the Christmas season with holly,
mistletoe, wassail, and the yule log
are relics of an old pagan festival COM
memorating the shortest day IN the
year. The custom of making presents
at Christmas time is usually associat-
ed with the gifts presented Christ by
the Wise Men of the East, but this too,
at least insofar as the English speak
ing people are concerned. Is also de-
rived from an old heather usage.
The custom Of decorating trees has
been traced from Rome to Germany,
from Germany to England, and from
England to the United States. The
prejudice against Christmas obserV-
ance, as being too strongly tnctured
with heather tradition was so strong
in Scotland that until quite recently
the children of Presbyterian families
had no Christmas at all, and even now
is not a popular holiday in Scotland
In New England, in the early days,
it was considered by our fore-fathers
az inappropriate, irreverent, to ceSe-
brate Chr,st's birthday with feastins,
gift giving and iollity.
