RIPPING RHYMES

IT'S A WINNER

This world is a winner. my mas
ters. though troubles may on us de-
scend; we always live through the
disasters, and everything's right in
the end. I've lived through a surfeit
of sorrow, I've lived through an
ocean Of care, I've wept through the
night and the morrow convinced me
my woe wasn't there. Some people
are always abusing the planet where
on we abide; they hint that II they
had the choosing, on some other
world we would ride. But when
they are scheduled to leave us, and
flee to a happier cline, they look on
the journey as grievous, they think
their departure q crime. The longer
I live on this planet, the better and
smoother it seems, this mixture OF
gumbo and granite is surely the
world of my dreams. The knockers
are dealing in fiction who call 1t a
wilderness drear; there's just enough
grief and affliction to season the
happiness here. There's just enough
hustle and hurry to spur us to show
ing our worth; there's just enough
trouble and worry to keep us from
dying of mirth. II others are put
ting up dirges, your voice to the
wailing don't lend; the world from
all shadows emerges, and every.
things right in the end.

GRAIN.

CHICAGO. juno 20.-Wheat underwent
to-day a sharp price setback largely be-
cause Of depression in the New York
Stock Market and in cotton. The close
in wheat was heavy, &c. to 4c. net
lower with Jlly at s1,24A to $125 and
September at s1.20 to $1.201a. Corn
finished Ac. to ssc. down; oats un-
changed to CSC. off and provisions up
21hc. to 25c.
Lack of confidence which seemed
for, at least the time being, to have
grabbed the majority Of buyers in the
wheat market proved to be much more
than an offse. for bullish field advices
from the spring crop belt, and for dis
appointing harvest returns from the
winter crop. One good rally took place,
but otherwise the bears had things much
their own way. Bulls were handicapped
to the greatest extent by the general
unsettling influence Of the action Of
stocks and cotton. but in addition the
prevailing favorable weather for har-
vesting was an inducement to sell, which
was emphasized by record breaking re-
ceipts at Hutchinson, Kan, 16S cars,
and by the fact that new wheat was
beginning to arrive in Kansas City. Be-
sides. export demand was slow. with
substantial increase shown in the visible
supply total. buyers continued to back
away throughout the late dealings and
keep an eye mainly on the Stock Mar
ket's downward swing.
Absence Of rain tended to check weak
ness in the corn market and thereby to
help sustain cats.
Provisions ranged higher with hogs.
