This Is Dream of Doughboy, Who Employs Re
markable Descriptive Powers in Telling
About the Cootie

Of the several thousand men Cascade
county sent overseas. Lieutenant A f.
Thurston, Corporal William +. Quigiey
and Private Harry Mayo will return pro-
baby best qualified to tell of the work
and the working parts of the cootie
This will be because they are with the
31Sth engineers, which unit has Il man
who has been inspired to write the most
pointed description of the little brutes
yet received The writer is Corporal
Harry Donohue of Kansas. and in the
January issue of The Sapper." the re-
giment's publication. he contributes the
following by way of teaching his friends
how TO tell about the cootie without the
omission of whatsoever detail
This mnltlpede animal is one which
requires many variations. orations and
observations TO describe. He ranges in
size from that of d grain of western
Alabama rice to that of an Arizona bean.
The cooties are possessed with last
legs, and upon close observation it will
be noticed that these legs are reyers-
able. j. e., he can turn his legs in such
manner as TO operate them success
fully if he be turned over, aecidently or
on purpose, by the victim of his man
euvers. The legs are covered with many
horns, hoof. spikes. spurs, prongs,
pincers. brads bristles, nails, nippers
and many other such weapons too num-
erous to mention.
THE eootie which is found on the
31Sth engineers. has very sharp claws,
teeth and tusks The reason for this
is that the 31Sth engineers are hard
boiled. requiring the cootie to be thusly
possessed in order to sustain liveli-
hood In leaving the good cid r. s
the eootie was a stranger to me; but
from the easy manner in which he
stepped abroad my frame | was no

CHICAGO MARKET
GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Chicago, April 9.-Overwhelming
rushes to sell swept all grain and pro-
vision prices headlong downward, today,
on the board Of trade.
The biggest fall was in corn and
pork, respectively 11h cents a bushel
and $3.50 a BARREL Action which the
board Of trade officials and federal
wheat director had initiated against
excessive cost of1foodstuffs did much to
force the avalanche Of unloading.
Closing prices Of corn were excited
at the lowest point of the season a new
decline of 95s to liza with July $1.53A
to S1.54A and September $1.51 to1.51 1.
Oats lost 215 cents to 3ss cents and
provisions 20 cents to $50.
Weakness of prices in the corn market
was evident as soon as trading opened.
Then the liberal arrivals of corn and
hogs here from the country further un-
settled the confidence of holders and
deprived the market of support. On the
ensuing downward plunge of values,
stop-loss orders to sell owing to ex-
hausted margins were uncovered in
profusion.
At this juncture, when the pit was
was made that the government would
largely discontinue purchases of wheat
flour for export and, il necessary, to
stop speculation causing high prices,
would throw off all important restric-
tions on foreign wheat and flour. The
immediate result was paralyzing Of
demand for corn Violence of the breaks
in the market now reached the acme as
the closing gong sounded.
Oats tumbled with corn.
Provisions shared in the furry Of
selling brot on by the same factors that
swept the grain markets downward.
Buyers were hard to find.
Prices:
Corn-July: Open 1.62; high 1 63; low
1881; close 1894. September: Open
1.59; high 1907; low 1.51; close 1.51.
Oats-July: Open 701a; high II; low
6SB; close 6SA. September: Open
