Community Effort.

Lord Dundreary humOrously ques.
toned whether any bird would be such
a "darned fool as to go off and flock
all by himself" and inherently, no
sane human being does it. We have
been doing things in groups for sew
eral hundred thousand years now, and
we have been getting better at it all
the time. There is still a long way to
go. That IS where the preachers of
community effort can help.

Shutting Out English Sparrow.

Bird lovers say that while other
species will feed easily from n board
swung from n tree by ropes at its
four corners, English sparrows will
not alight upon it, not even for the
sake of the priced food. This fur
nishes a hint that the other birds will
appreciate, for the English sparrow Is
an unwelcome visitor ut the tables Of
the native birds.-Minneapolis Journal.

Dancing Has Deteriorated.

Dancing in its earliest form among
primitive races, was a mode of eX-
preston for strong emotions, such as
joy or sorrow. love and passion, and
even for the most solemn religious
sentiment, but in later ages it has be-
come an amusement and has lost it's
high significance.

Pride at Root Of Mistakes.

I have been MOI and more con-
WINGED, the more l think Of it, that,
in general, pride is at the bottom of
all great mistakes. All the other pas
siOns do occasional good; but when
ever pride puts in its word, every
thing goes wrong, and what 1t might
really be desirable to do, quietly and
innocently, it is MORALLY dangerous to
do proudly.-Ruskin.

A COOKS ACCIDENTAL DISCOVERY.

One Of the best ways of cooking potatoes
was accidentally discovered through the
unpunctuality of a train. When the line
from Paris to st. German was opened the
first train carried an official party for
whom lunch was ordered. The meal was
fixed for noon. and shortly before that
hour the potatoes were put on to fry. A
few minutes afterward a message came
that the train would probably DO delayed
for an hour. SO the potatoes were taken
off the fire, but left In the pan. Then came
a second message. Train just arriving"
and the potatoes We're hurriedly put back
to fry axain. When the party sat down 10
lunch the potatoes were brought OH with
the steak. Each chip was then found TO be
blown out like a small. crisp. golden bal
| loon, to the delight of the guests. The
cook. without knowing 1t. had invented
pommes de terre soufiies.

ENGINEER BAND TO PLAY.
To Alternate With Marine Band in
Park Concerts This Summer.

The War Department has approved the
recommendation of Col. Harts, engineer
officer in charge of public buildings and
grounds. that the Engineer Band be di-
rected to alternate with the u. 8. Ma
rine Band in giving daily concerts in the
public parks of the District this summer.
The question had arisen as to whether
such use of the band was contrary to
the provisions of section of the national
defense act. prohibiting the employment
Of enlisted men Of the army in civil pur-
suits in competition with civilians. The
authorities of the War Department held
that it was not in the nature of a civil
employment for the band to give public
concerts in the government parks and
reservations, but. on the contrary. that
such employment was a proper function
of a military band.
The judge advocate general of the
army. to whom the question was referred
held that the statute was not intended to
restrict the Secretary of War in the
proper employment of the United State,
troops in aid Of public or patriotic dem
onstrations.

Bids Go Higher and Higher.

In the massive trading room prices
continued their ascent until the shorts
had covered" and taken their losses,
probably very heavy in many cases.
The opinion was expressed that the
day pretty well drove in this interest
and that a decrease in trading might
be expected Monday; that contracts had
been largely evened up and that specu-
lators would be slow to bind themselves
to contracts which might be affected by
action such as that taken with regard
to May options. A question much hand
ed about was whether, il control of spec
ulation in May was good thing, similar
action might not apply with equal bene-
fit to more deferred futures. President
Joseph Griffin of the board. said that
no such action was contemplated, as, in
the opinion of many. wheat Of the new
crop would begin to arrive by July.
Allen G. Anderson, vice chairman of
the British food commission. came here
and secret conference was held with
board of trade leaders Thursday. At this
meeting it Is said there was some plain
speaking. in the course Of which it de-
veloped that agents for the allies have
been long of wheat as much as 21.000,-
900 bushels at one time, in various mar
kets They are at present said to be
big owners Of spot wheat-that is, the
actual wheat. There is no disposition to
accuse them of speculation. They needed
the cereal more than they needed money,
and they had to bid against American
millers for crop which was short the
world over. America had to bid to keep
her own wheat, and prices scared.

market which had advanced enormous
ly, and to an extent contracted for
more distant futures. In the hope that
the shipping situation would improve.
Their unsought profits were said to
have run well into the millions.
There were advances in other leading
wheat markets during the day. At
Duluth the advances ranged from 1871
to Is cents. At Kansas City. where
the board ordered the closing of May
contracts. without fixing a settlement
price, the advance ranged from 21M
to 25 cents. At st. Louis, May, in the
absence of an embargo, advanced Ia
cents and deferred futures 21h to "a x
cents. Minneapolis showed a net rise
in May of 1S cents and in September
of COX. October wheat at Winnipeg
advanced 10 cents. The Minneapolis
Chamber of Commerce voted to con-
tinue trading In May options. Omaha
took no action, as May trades disap-
peared anyway.
Flour prices at Minneapolis touched a
new high figure of $1710 a barrel.
