Wheat.

B Wheat--Buying power during the
forenoon was wholly Inadequate and
the market displayed practically no
rallying tendency until shortly before
the close, when some buying was en-
couraged by reports that some export
buying had been done contradjcting
in way the earlier advices to the et-
feet that foreigners were trying to re-
sell. The decrease of SOC, 200 bushels
in the visible supply was a larger re-
duction than generally expected, and
brought the total down to only S,SS4.-
600 bushels against 39,254,00O last
year. Crop advices are better than
last week although some complaints
came from Nebraska and Ohio. These
messages, however, were largely Off
set by the publication of a report by
the Kansas agriculture bureau show
ing nearly one million acres more than
previously reported and suggesting a
total yield of about rs million bushels
greater. The situations appears TO
have reversed itself temporarily and
a somewhat further recession Is like
ly, especially IL cash premiums contin-
ue to weaken as they did today.

Worlds Most Famous sasilica.

The basilica of st. Mark is a famous
Venetian basllica, founded in $50 to
receive the relics of the evangelist
brought from Alexandria. rebuilt in 976
and given its definitive form in 1852.
1t is the most famed Byzantine struc-
ture of western Europe, cruciform In
plan, with five great domes on penden-
tives, and many smaller domes in sub
ordinate positions. The outer aisle or
atrium was added later; with its five
deep, many-columned arches, repeated
and fantastically canopied above, its
rich mosaics, and the wonderful color
of its incrusted marbles, it gives, with
the domes and many pinnacles. to the
exterior Its picturesque and unique
character. The four celebrated bronze
horses In front of the upper middle
arch came from ConstantinOple, and
probably adorned originally Roman
triumphal arch The interior, though
IL measures only 205 by 164 feet, is
one of the most impressive in the
world. Almost the whole surf2ss Of
walls, dOmes and arches is covered
with magnificent mosaics, representing
Old and New Testament scenes on
gold ground. Most of the capitals of
the columns are by the finest Byzan-
tine, though some are classical; and
the road-screen, surmounted by its
long row of statues, is at once beauti-
full and venerable. Externally and in
ternally, and despite regrettable resto-
rations, ST. Marks is the most superb
piece of architectural coloring in the
world.

ENGLISH KIND TO ANIMALS

less Behavior OF Dogs and Cats
In the Metropolis.

The English are the kindest people in

Clearly, the cat has not been "cfriv-

the sun, pussy keeps a wary eye open
for dogs. Man she knows TO be toler-

New Skin Disease Reported.

skin Infection of Japanese farm
ers, which they have associated with
manure. has been under investigation
by DIR. N. Anto. Treatment Is not usu-
ally sought, but the symptoms appear
to be well marked, and the trouble is
liable to recurrence. 1t is common
among persons who weed the fields
early or late in the day, when wet with
dew or rain. It is more rare in dry
weather, though 1t does not attack la
borers In flooded fields, and it is un-
known in winter. 1t Is first noticed as
an itching Of bare hands or feet, small
red spots soon appearing. In three or
four days the symptoms change to
violent cough, which may continue
three to twenty days. and is sometimes
attended by bloody expectoration.
Though the trouble gradually disap-
pears without treatment, oils and
vaseline are thought to be effective in
dealing with 1t. The investigator con-
cludes that this is another disease due
to worm larvae that penetrate the
skin, after the manner Of hookwormA.

without question the most horrifying
and far-reaching carnival of crime
ever enacted upon American soil-and
that is saying n great deal. Without
any attempt TO Justify or account for
the first clashes that led up to this
bloody affair, it goes without saying
that neither the eyes of God or man

Coats Of Arms.

A coat of arms is a relic of the

and was embroidered upon the cloth

been retained by their descendants.
