$40 PER HUNDRED IN
EARLY TRADING BUT FAIL TO
HOLD ENTIRE ADVANCE.
PRICES EASE OFF 10
AND is CENTS LATER
of Cattle Left From Mon
days Run and Absence Of Demand
Weakens Market-Good Demand For
Sheep and Lambs-Review Of Market
conditions-Current Quotations.

Chicago, Aug. 21-Another new rec
ord price for hogs was reached early
today when choice heavy hogs sold for
$50. Later prices eased off 10 to 10
cents.
Eleven leading markets had only
$4,000 hogs Monday, which was s'ooV
less than week ago, $4,000 less than
a year ago and $4,000 less than two
years ago. Every market on the list
with the exception of a few eastern
points, had smaller receipts than a
week ago and all, with one exception,
were smaller than year ago.
Top hogs year ago this week ad-
yanced 25c to s11.15 and the average
price moved up sic to s10.72. Two years
ago this week the top advanced zoe TO
high point during August, 1915, at $500
The average two years ago this week
gained COO. moving up to 1920. Yet the
SPREAD was very wide at that time.
Cattle.
Abundance Of cattle left over from
yesterdays run together with little de-
mand kept the marekt weak.
Dry weather in some sections I'M
doubtedly was responsible for the lib
eral run Of grassers and undoubtedly
the gain early last week caused the
shipping of some. The break on grass
kinds late last week did not seem to
check the movement any, as owners
had already made up their minds to
send them in.
Last weeks record top Of $500 was
euualed again Monday by two droves OF
Iowa steers, which sold fairly early.
One Of these droves averaged 1416
pounds and were of the Hereford breed
and the other around 400 pounds. One
other lot was held around $500, While
others sold at s14.SO, which were SIM
liar to others last Wednesday at
SASS. One string at $14:75 averaged
around 1925 pounds. A desirable class
from Illinois went at $14.7o.
There were a few other lots secured
at s14.00@14.50 and sales at $4,000
1880 were a little more numerous.
However, there were an unusually
large numer of sales at 00@l2.oo
and one man had several loads, none
Of which were desirable enough to
reach 5000. Many sellers were IN the
same fix and had to clear nearly every
thing they, had at $s.o0@1O.oo. while
some at ss.75 to the seller looked bet
ter than some from the same feedlot
Wednesday at $1,000. Only inferior
killers cleared at s7.25@ 500, with
Gamer kinds downward from $500.
Sheep.
There was a good demand for sheep
and lambs.
Prime ewes readily made SO. while
only a medium class sold down to $3.50
and those at $500 and lower were
plain. Culls rarely sold under $500 and
good class OF seconds made $500 and
higher. Bucks were mostly taken at
$500. Odd yeaflings of good class
landed at $1,000, with others at $3.50
and down wethers were limited to a
few head of natives. A good class of
breeding ewes sold at s13 and at SO. a
medium class found an outlet while
yearlings were worth Up to $3.50.

LEGEND Of Haneman's Stone.

Numerous large powders in Eng
land as well as in this country have
received the name of the hangman's
stone, as a result of legend which
attaches much the same story to each.
There were two fiends in the parish OF
Foremark, in Derbyshire, called the
Great and the Little Hangman's Stone,
from the boulders which they con-
tanned. The former was five or six feet
high, with an indentation running
across the top. This peculiar mark
was explained by tradition, as follows:
Once upon time thief, having
stolen a sheep, placed his booty on the
top Of the stone while he rested. but
it slipped off and strangled the man
with the rope which tied the sheep to
his back, the indentation being made
by the friction of the rope passing
back and forth in the struggles Of the
dying man to extricate himself.

True In Some Gases.

A book reviewer in the London
Times makes the rather remarkable
assertion that the word Interesting"
is not one that should ordinarily be
applied to q work Of fiction. 1t is re-
markable because, for some occult rea-
son, he considers the word unsuitable
in its application to any fiction Of
whatever character. If he had said
that it has no fitness when applied to
much current fiction he would have
aroused no surprise.-Exchange.

Chicago, Aug. 21.-Corn-The corn
market lacked definite trend, being cas-
lily Influenced by moderate operations
either way. At the close tonight 1t
showed moderate loss from yester-
day. despite the fact that cash corn
was stronger. The prospect is for I'M
settled weather over the greater part
Of the belt, which in most sections will
be welcome. Hogs again reached a
record level, but this was not regarded
as a legitimate market influence on
new crop corn. Crop reports, especial
1y from Nebraska, are more favorable.
Political news Is the factor Of greatest
Importance and viii probably affect
the marlet adversely, particularly II
the various governments interested are
willing to consider the peace PROPOSE
lions now before all belligerent nations.
Oa1s-Ths improved demand for
cash, and prospect Of unfavorable
weather for threshing did not help the
futures market Early in the day shorts
were free buyers and, thereafter the
market was inclinedrlower but showed
no independent weakness; being
led back and forth by the action OF
corn. The holding dispoGtion of farm
ers and lack Of corn may retard the
movement temporarily but the yield is
so large that whatever bulges occur
from time to time will probably in
duce a very liberal movement.

Chicago Horse Market.

Chicago, Aug. 21.-1tberal horse re-
ceipts, with prices somewhat lower
offers good opportunity to buy some
good horses at materially reduced
prices, traders point out that the
absence of some of the regular buyers
has made the trade little slower than
usual thus giving weight to the asser-
ton of others that now is the right
time to buy good horses cheap. The
receipt of 400 horses last Monday, with
liberal holdover, together with to-
days estimated receipts of 500 head,
makes it plain that now is the right
time to get supplies.
1t is expected that prices will pick
up bit later on, especially when
eastern buyers resume trading on the
local market. The army inspections
have been busy, and are taking fair
amount Of stuff.
Receipts for today are estimated at
500 head, against 433 last week, 1886
a year ago and 1,6s4 two years ago.

-proxisions Continue Responsive to
Advance In Live Hogs.

Chicago, AUG. 21.-Idght offerings
and continued desire Of shorts to
cover lifted corn prices early in the
session today, figures going about
cent above yesterdays close and then
receding somewhat. Opening prices
ranged from y cent lower to % cent
higher, with December at s1.os to
s1.Osh and May at SLOT to sLo7A.
The early bulge took December to
S1.osN and May to $1.0s, from which
points they settled back about to the
opening figures.
Heavy offerings on the bulge caused
a reaction from the early advances.
Most Of the trading was at about the
opening figures. The close was steady
u cent lower to B cent higher, with
December at LOSS to 1.0sa and May
at 1.07.
Wheat.
There was little trading in wheat.
The opening trade in September was
at $2.07. Subsequent deals carried the
figure to $40.
Wheat trading was without signifi-
canoe and the prices paid reflected the
desire to replenish holdings. The close
was steady, with September at 2.10, an
advance Of cents.
Oats.
Oats. which opened easy, advanced
and receded with corn prices, the
variation being on lesser scale.
Provisions.
Provisions continued responsive to
the live hog advance and made mod
crate gains, October pork making the
snarpest increase at the outset.

EFFECT OF WIND on SOUND
Differences In Strength Of Wind Is
What Prevents the Spread
Of Sound.

One Of the government scientists
gives an interesting explanation of the
action Of the wind in preventing the
spread Of sound.
1t Is, he claims, not the wind, as
such, that prevents sound from trav-
cling against 1t, but differences in the
strength of the wind. If, for instance,
the wind Is stronger at one side, its
effect will be to tilt the sound waves
in one direction or another. Differ
ences of temperature In the air also
cause detection of the waves of sound.
Other atmospheric causes exist which
defect sound from straight course
and prevent It from going as far in a
certain direction as 1t may have been
expected to go.
Some of the sirens in this country,
says this scientist, produce sounds
which ought theoretically to be audi
BILE at a distance of 1900 miles, but, in
fact, the authorities are satisfied II
they are heard only two miles away.
The reason for the discrepancy be-
tween calculation and experiment was
probably atmospheric detection of the
sound.

WAS MODEL FOR "PEER GYNT"
Ibsen insplred In Creating Masterpiece
Partly by an Eccentric
Young Dane.

There are many models back or
"Peer Gynt," and among them young
Dane. Ibsen met the young man FIRE.
quently In Italy. He was peculiarly
conceited and affected young buffer,
Georg Brandes writes In the Century
Magazine. He used to tell the Italian
girls at Ischia and Capri that his father,
a schoolteacher In reality, was the best
friend Of the king of Denmark, and
that he himself was one of the great
est men in Denmark. To prove this,
he often appeared in entire suits of
white satin. He called himself poet,
but could find poetical inspiration only
in the wilderness or in desolate, dreary
spots. He once went to Crete to write,
he said, a great drama of tragedy. He
returned, however, without having &C.
complished his purpose. He averred
that he could feel tragic emotion only
in the mountains, and lived in self
delusion and illusion.
Some of his characteristics have
passed in "Peer Gynt." Otherwise
"Peer Gynt" Is supposed to be an in
carnation of Norwegian folbles. Peers
lies are not really falsehoods, II this
implies the intention to deceive others
They are rather self-deceptions. "Peer
Gynt" has something in common with
Cervantes' "Don Quixote," and Is more
closely related to Daudet's "Tartarin.'

Hejoht of a Camera.

A safe rule in most cases, Is to
have the camera ut such a height
that the lens is about level with the
eyes Of a person Of average height,
standing. This implies that most tri-
pod stands, all ultra portable ones, are
too short in the leg, as even those
which allow the camera to be at this
height only do so when the feet are
so near together that the stand Is
unstable. With lenses Of short focus
1t is usually advantageous, especially
in interior work, to have the camera
lower, while with very long focus
lenses 1t may be higher to avoid n
foreshortening of the ground. In the
case of domestic interiors, 1t Is I'm
portant to have the lens well above
the level Of table top, as the effect
of the furniture seen from a lower
viewpoint will be unsatisfactory.
