A unique dinner party with the
golden service was given last week
ut the Knickerbocker. Famous chefs
from all over the country were in
convention here and the most noted
Of them got together for a special
dinner.
They were agreed that talking
while eating detracts from placing
the proper value on food and so each
of=the guests were requested when
seated not to speak word. No one
guest broke the promise.
The banquet lasted for more than
an hour and all OF the most expen-

There is n man who has an Office
nlong Times Square curb that makes
hIs living by his Wits In an unusual
way. He Is UP early to scan the COL
umns OF the morning papers. He
hunts for stories about people who
are rarely IN print II ever.
He then hustles to their home adj
dress and tells them that they have
been written about in the New York
newspapers. or course they are very
much thrilled by the news.
For 81 he agrees to furnish them

he could see instead the home of
his dreams. He could hear voices of
children, and in mist of tenderness
see the dear face of a little woman
with sweet blue eyes-his wife--to
have and to hold against the whole
city of New York, or, if need be, the
world itself-and Il kind of rage seiz-
ed him as he swore that he would not
give her up.
Meantime the abomination of q
train which lore these two unhappy
people went swiftly and serenely on its
way, meeting with never an accident,
and keeping all of its engagements
punctually to the minute.
So they had sped toward Briming-
ham, where the train was TO make
stop of twenty minutes. They had
reached the outskirts of the smoky
town, and the glare of furnaces and
rolling-mills shone through the win
dows, before the girl with tagging
fingers began to adjust her cloak and
hat. He at once concluded that
wearying of the train. she had de-
termined to get off for supper. She
made her few preparations listlessly
wishing that something might happen
so she would not have to go. Once
for moment. she met the eyes of the
man regarding her gravely, and her
heart beat more quickly.
She was drawing on her gloves
when the train pulled in at the sta.
lion. The other passengers haC
| made their way out, when. as she fol
, lowed into the aisle, she found her
self confronted by the man. He barr
ed her way, his face white with emo
tion, as he told himself savagely tina
he could not let her go. He held he
with his eyes, and they stood silentl.
together while heart spoke to heart
when suddenly she was encompasset
by pair of strong arms and he
brothers kind face bent above her.
Hello. little girl" he cried. Nv,
began to think you hadn't come. Wha
a treat for sore eyes!" Then he oh
served the man who was much engag
ed with his baggage.
"Why, hello, old man, Just bacl
from your hunt. Ell? Have you me
my sister, Miss Marshall, OF New Or
leans! Elenor, this is Mr.. Farrell
Representative in Congress from on
district, YOU know" and the two bow
ed gravely.
But moment later as they made
their way through the crowded sta
tion many paused to give them sec
ond glance, and smiled in sympathy
The stout man, happy and good-na
tured, looked at peace with the world
but the faces of the big man with tn
gun and the little woman tripping
blithely by his side, were illumine
with a radiance not of earth.
heavenly vista opened to their sigh,
for they were two who happily ha
met and "read Life's meaning in eac
others eyes,"

CHICAGO GRAIN.

CHICAGO, May Discussion of
peace chances had considerable effect
today i'll bringing about lower quota
tions on wheat. The market, although
ste.dy at the close was &c to 7sM1c
down, with July Sligo m1l6Ss. and
Sept, $l,lGss. Corn finished isWLc
to Nc up; oats unchanged to sc OFF
and provisions varying from the same
as Yesterdays finish to decline of
10 cents.
Peace talk showed its influence in
the main through the evident restraint
put upon buyers. Sales of 100000
bushels of Manitoba wheat to Holland
did not seem to arouse the slightest
enthusiasm on the bull side.
Corn developed firmness owing to
the fact that country offerings were
light. Besides, shipping demand was
said to have improved.
oats were steadicd by export Sales
Of 25O.000 bushels at the seaboard.
Crop reports continued unfavorable
from the southwest. but good from the
Ms central states
Provisions averaged lower on ac.
count Of a sharp downturn in the value
ol hogs. Rallies at times were prompt.
cd by rum mrrs of peace and by asser
tions that 100000 pounds of lard had
been disposed Of for belgian relief.

HARLOW TALKS
Of CONDITIONS
PROSPERITY GENERAL THROUGH.
OUT THE UNITED STATES
AT PRESENT TIME.
Spent The WINTER IN BERNUOAS

Il. a. Harlow. Of Washington, u.
c.. was IN l.ewstoWn Friday ON his
way t2 his Judith basin property, the
Montana ranch, for few weeks stay.
Mr.. Harlow was the original lnstiga
tor OF the old "lawbone' railway from
Harlowtou to lewist0wn. which bit
of roadway was finally taken over by
the Milwaukee,, and his interest in this
sec lion is mere than material one.
A Real Year.
In speaking of general conditions
Mr.. Harlow stated yesterday that the
unprcparedness Of the United States
is very real thing to the dwelers
of the eastern coast.
To those living as far west as Mon.
tana. unpreparedness is subject for
discussion but not OF vital concern.
But to the people of Washington, for
instance, the possibility of a coast at
tack from a foreign power is very
potent issue. With them it is an
acute fear and a iustfiable one be-
cause they are in position to realize
the danger which actually exists They
know that in case of an attack they
would be utterly powerless to defend
themselves because the munitions at
hand would not carry on a good mod.
ern battle more than two days, il
that. They realize that it would be
less than useless for a million men
to rise to call to arms if there were
no arms to call them to-
Prosperity There.
Condition in the far east cor
respond very favorably with western
conditions as far as a general pros
perity is concerned, said Mr.. Harlow
for there as here, there seems to be
superabundaDce Of ready money,
and eastern financial interests seem
to be looking towards a greater era
Of prosperity as soon as European
peace is in sight aud reconstruction
begins.
In Bermuda.
Mr.. Harlow, with his family, spent
a share Of the winter in the prin-
cipal island Of the Bermuda group,
an interesting British possession
somewhat removed from the eastern
coast Of the United States This is q
tiny island of about 10000 acres,
smaller in fact than many Montana
ranches, but is a miniature sovereign,
ty in itself with all state dignities. 1t
is. OF course, involved in the great
war together with all Of the English
possessions. and consequent spirit
Of depression prevails among the peo.
pie. The Young men are all at the
firing line. and there is scarcely a
British subject there who hasn't one
or moro relatives in the trenches. All
mail is censored vigorously and the
coaS; linc is constantly patrolled by
men Of war. Troops from Canada are
transported through this island TO
Europe
All the Germans who We're unfor
tunato enough to he living on the
island at the outbreak Of the war
have been interned at one end Of tho
island and are carefully kept there.
Mr.. Harlow has met Mrs. Wilson,
wife OF the president. and says tha.
she is an oxquisitely charming
woman Hnd quite all that the first
lady of the land be, stately, beautiful
and extremely gracious 10 all whom
she meets.
