lose his screen-appeal, and In
THE Wonder Of Women" /" gracing
the Palace screen this week, he
returns to his worshipers as q
music composer who fails to find
his longing for q good woman
appeased until It IL too late.
The flirtatious, but harmless

widowed mother Of three children
at q time in his life when his
genius is most In demand.
Marrying her, he finds that she
can give him everything but the
solitude he longed for when
working.
He tries to escape his Bohemian
friends by writing popular songs
under an assumed name and
succeeds after q fashion. As
. long as he remains away from
the friends his wife holds his full
attention, but once back among
them she loses hold on him.
Leila Hyams. blonde beauty Of
the Berlin artist set, woos him
madly during q visit. That makes
him forget his wife, who pays an
unexpected visit to their haunts
and finds him In the arms Of an.
other woman.
The composer returns home,
still dissatisfied even in tho face
of death In the little family. Then
he decides again that he viii
leave. this time forever. His wife
takes suddenly I'll and dies just
as he Is about to depart. His
declarations OF love are too late

Possible Damage to

By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO. April Notwithstanding
Kansas reports Of strong winds threat
ening to damage crops, Chicago wheat
prices underwent an early setback to-
day. The market proved more respon-
sive to the fact that Liverpool wheat
quotations had failed to reflect yester-
days advance here. Opening at V
decline to 70 gain, Chicago wheat later
showed q decided general drop. Corn.
oats and provisions were likewise easier,
with corn starting unchanged. to "a OH
and subsequently sagging all around.
In addition to the effect of relative
weakness Of the Liverpool wheat market
today, crop advices were current which
tended to dispel fear Of high winds in
the Southwest. An authoritative unofi-
clal summary, covering not only the
Southwest, but the Winter wheat belt
as whole, said rains, that have been
general, have improved conditions ma
terially, and have packed the soil, thus
lessening danger from drifting. In
practically all Of the Winter belt growth
has started. despite some brown spots
where plants were Winter-killed. Aban-
donn1ent thus far was less than aver
age.
Bears in the wheat market put con-
siderable emphasis today, on the an
rlouncemerit that the Canadians are
prepared for the 1929 wheat crop,
which in the three prairie provinces
was 17,453,000 acres, compared with
I6, 296, 900 acres for 1928. There was
an increase of new breaking in Alberta
and Manitoba. All three provinces re-
ported a decrease In the land under
Summer fallow, but an increase In Fall
