GRAIN QUOTATIONS
WAGNER GRAIN LETTER

CHICAGO, Nov. t. Corn tone re-
mains easy. There is a move to cut
the extravagant premiums on wheat.
Country is agitating to secure more
cars. Cash corn one to five cents
lower. Important move to end coal
strike may arrive any time. Western
hogs rs to so cents higher. Outside
buying of corn on the November bulge
was small. Locals have little faith
in cash corn above $1.55 to $3.50 right
now. The trouble is cash corn can
drop 5 to 10 cents any time. The mar
ket does not act bullish beyond sharp
bulges on which selling is liable to
be expected.

Girl Takes Ride With Stranger and is

Miss Ina Foster who works at the
John Barber home south of town on
he Manila road, was badly bruised
asst evening when she jumped from an
automobile running at high rate Of

1t seems that Miss Foster came to
Oenison yebterday afternoon to do
some shopping and started to walk
Jack to the John Barber farm a little
litter o'clock. When passing the
lincoln Highway garage young man
sitting in Ford car invited her to
Tide and she refused his invitation
Ind went on down the street. The
young man started his car and farther
Town the street insisted that she ride
with him, inasmuch as ne was going
BY the Barber farm. She reluctantly
got into the car with the young man
Who was a stranger to her, and he at
)nce speeded up his machine and
started out south of town on the Coon
Grove road. She demonstrated with
him because he was not taking the
right road to the Barber farm and en-
treated him to stop and let her out.
Miss Foster asked him three times to
permit her to get out but he only put
IN more speed. At Coon Grove the
fellow attempted to put his arms
around her and becoming frightened
she jumped from the car while it was
travelling at a high rate OF speed. The
Young man did not stop to assist her

BROTHER DIES
H. A. ,Mcconnaushey, Brother Of Dr..
Mcconnaushey, Dies at Younos.
town, o., After Brief Illness

DR.. R. %. McConnaughey returned
to Denison last Thursday from Ben,
zonia, Mich, where he attended the
funeral of his brother, H. A. McCon'
naughey, who passed away at Youngs'
town, o., after an illness of weeks
duration. The news OF the death OF
Mr.. ,McConnaughey came as a great
shock to DR.. McConnaughey and the
many friends here in Denison. He
was taken sick with an obstruction OF
the bowels and an operation was re.
Fstorted to, ibut he passed away soon
after this was performed on Wednes-
Eday, August 9Th. &c.. - .%fi
The deceased was a native of Iowa,
being born at Washington on Jan. Fl.
1882. He received his education at
the academy AT that place, after which
he went to Oberlin, o., where he grad
uated from the college at that place,
|abOut twelve years ago. Before grad
Fuating he had decided to devote his
llife to christian work and decided that
Lit would be through the agency of the
w. NJ. G. A. that he could perform the
most good. After graduating from
FOberlin in company with DR.. Steiner,
|of Grinnell college, and a party OF
young men, he went to Europe. where
he spent year and half visiting the
|old countries, making the tour onaa
bicycle, where the home life of the.
foreigners was studied with view of
learning just how to care for immi-
grants from these countries when they
came to our shores. On his return
from abroad 4he at once engaged in.
Y. M. C. A. work and for four years
served as industrial secretary at Pitts
burg. When the war broke out he went
ito Russia and for year and a half
served in the iprison camps in that
