Why Flour ExpIodes.

Records eff the last ten .,ears show that about twenty explosions have DC, cured in cereal. flour and feed mills with the loss of S2,OOQOOO worth of property, as well as the killing or in. turing of over two hundred employees. Investigations regarding the causes of these explosions and subsequent fires have not proved conclusiveIy what arc the difficulties to be avoided. In eight cases the explosions are believed to have originated from the sparks pro- duced in the machines during the grinding process. Tiny particles of gravel or metallic substances coming into contact with the plates of the naa- chine may produce enough sparks 90 ignite the dust within the machine. Another possible cause for cereal dust explosions suggested is the use of naked flames.

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Chicago, April S.-Definite announce ment that trading in new style con tracts would beoin on Thursday, gave the corn market today new upturn. The change in rules makes the com mercial grades of corn the contract grades and was expected to allow dealings in future deliveries to be at much higher prices than has recent ly been the case. The fact that trad ing continued to be restricted in vol ume for any one account operated as somethning of handicap to the bulls, Opening prices, which ranged from 1-4 10 3-S higher, with May $1,26 7-S to $1,27, were followed by further gains,
 Oats tended upward with corn. Of ferings were light. After opening 1-2 to 1-2@5-S higher, with May S5 3-4 to 86, prices reacted a little but then ascended again.
 Lower quotations on hogs weakened provisions. Most of the business was in lard and ribs.

Fresh Greens for the Canary.

ffeeh 0reen9 TOT tNe SdHaTy.
 Canaries are very fond of lettuce celery tops and other young and ten der greens, as all birdlovers know. When the birdman tells us we must not give these things to our pets too frequently the temptation to go con- trary to advice is strong. for we sym' pathize keenly. An accident showed me the way to gratify our pets without harm to them, as experience has proven. Some months since, little birdseed was spilled on the earth in a large tub containing rubber plant Soon these seeds sprouted, axd we hit upon the idea of removing the bottom from the cage and setting 1t over the young sprouts. The joy the canaries found in their greens, md the conse. auent discovery tbat the birds were really gaining in health and song con. vinced us that box of sprouting bird' seed was the thing to keep on hand for them.-Exchange.

Two Heroes Remembered.

Jasper county, Indiana. was named in honor of Sergeant Jasper of the Revolutionary army because of his spe- cial patriotism and bravery. He was a sergeant in il South Carolina regiment And in the attack on Fort Moultrie, early in the war, the flagstaff was shot off and the flag fell to the bottom of the ditch outside of the works. Jump ing from one of the embresures, Jasper mounted the colors, tied them to staff and held them in position under a bot fire until another flagstaff wss brought. For this q commission was offered him but he declined it through distrust of his qualifications. Or an- other occasion he ana another sergeant named Newton attacked British guard of ten men and released some prisoners the guard were conveying to Savannah. A township in Jasper coun- ty is named Newton in honor of Jas per's companion on this occasion. A county in Georgia and central square in Savannah help to perpetuate Jas. per's name. He was killed at Savannah near the close of the war.
