Halloween Celebrated.

The Mummers celebrated Hal
lowe'en, goodly number thronging
out streets Wednesday evening. The
costumes were a conglomeration.
The Cokesbury Lyceum was the most
unique party, the members visiting
various homes and conducting their
literary exercises
Cokesbury is negro settlement
near Port Deposit. The members
were: Theopolis Thistle, Leslie Pyle;
Charity Parsley, Mrs. Helen Pyle;
Annie Presberry, Miss Lidie Jenkins;
Petunia Smith, Miss Edna Wilson;
Washington Bookerton, Miss Celia
Jenkins; Violet Thistle, little Eliza
beth McNamee; Primrose Jones, Mrs.
Emma McNamee.
The Lyceum opened with singing
Old Black Joe; roll call. responded
to with sentiments; reading of min
utes. Literary program Reading
Petunia Smith, A Meatless Day; solos
Violet Thistle, In the Valley of the
Moon; history of Rising Sun, Prim-
rose Jones; homemade poem, Our
New Electric Lights, Annie Pres
berry; remark on the price of sugar,
Washington Bookerton; solo, Swanee
River, Charity Parker; closing song,
Good Night Ladies.
The closing meeting of the Lyceum
was held at the home of J. M. Ster-.
rett, where the members received
royal entertainment and were IN
yited to meet next Halloween.
AS we are all interested in the
history of our town, we give it as
old by the Lyceum's historian:
Rising Sun is bright and shelter
ed little village situated high in the
valley, among hills, in trees, in Cecil
County. It's bounded on the north
)y Goat Hill and Sollars' glue fac
;ory, on the east by the Mississippi
River and Rocky Mts., on the west
~ Mt. Zoar, on the south by bub-
bling stream of water flowing
through the pipes of the condensary
where the residents in view can
>njoy fragrant perfumes.
There is no working class here
everybody owns their own homes or
the one next to it. We have a up
o-date movin picture show here that
We can brag of, the pictures are
showed on the canvas up side down
through hole in the wall. The
itreets are soon to be all lighted up
with electrified lights suspended
from wires containing big green
baskets.
Rising Sun has railroad service
be proud of. All the engines
'ooked upon as RELICS are showed
IN the Central division and slowed
down at the Sun-and every once
md o while we have a train running
INTO the station at 9:45 A M. The
white folks set in the station and
vait to get on-but we start off and
walk if we want to get any place
awful badly & in time. Rising
sun has nice building lots and last
spring when the BOOM of sellin was
on every body was so tickled with
heir presents that they got, that
they didn't want the lots because
they thot they had got somethin for
nothin & what more ought feller
to have.
3 cheers for Rising Sun.

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

CHICAGO. August 31-Announce-
ment of the government price for
wheat. fixing $500 bushel for the
corn market today. Traders found Of
ferings light at the start. Weather
forecasts of generally fair and warmer
through the belt tended also to harden
prices: Corn opened Y to higher,
with December at 1.osH to Ito and
May at LOT to 1.07H.
Early trading carried figures frac-
tionally higher. Fluctuations were
slight.
Oats displayed considerable strength,
initial advances being from u to IN,
September scoring the greatest gains.
Demand was good, shorts buying freely
of the near month, and country offer
ings were extremely light.
, Provisions were higher with the adj
vance in live hog prices. Lard was in
good demand.
Cash sales of wheat yesterday were
about at the figures fixed by the gov
eminent action announced today. No.
II red sold for s2.20. Its differential
ron the basis of $2.2O for No. l is SLY
a bushel.
Wheat traders, notwithstanding the
announcement of the government fig
ures which go into effect tomorrow the
first day of the new month. continued
their waiting tactics. Some confusion
of opinion regarding the method of de-
termining the prices for grades of
wheat not specifically mentioned in the
government ruling was observed.
1t was considered probably early that
some wheat today would change hands
at premium over the government
figures where the grain was wanted for
definite use.
The government price is lower than
figures paid yesterday for spring
wheat, which sold yesterday for $2.3S
