WHEELER is PRIZE PLA YER
Steady
Gdn1eInLoop
For Team
By SID KATZNELL

After WaVerly wheeler, SenSa-
tional shortStop of the Shady
Grove Barbecuers, and surprise
package of the National City
League, had struck out for the
third time in succession against
Archie ScriVener's lefthanded
shoots a couple Sundays ago, a
grandStand manager said:
THAT guy couldn't hit a barn
door with q tennis racket"
A red-faced youth with curly
blond hair, who appeared to be
about IS years old, snapped:
Babe Ruth used to strike
out, too. 1 have seen Wheeler
play too many times to believe
he's not a good BAH player.
Wheeler drove a long fly to left
field the next time UP, but the
fifth appearance at the plate
Waverly walloped one of the long
est home runs seen on the Ellipse
to win the ball game, S to 4, in 10
innings.
After Wheeler hit that homer,
the grandstand manager said to
another fellow:
"That kid certainly can hit
that ball"
The instance proves the saying:
''The world admireS winner"
Wheeler is a ball players ball
player. ONLY last Sunday the lad
drove out two round tr1pperS
against the Dixie Pigs to enable
his team to win, IL to Z.
Waverly will make his errors at
Shortstop as we'll as the next
player, but he will make some SEN
Sational stops, too.
Sandlot fans who appreciate a
player who is in there fighting at
all times whether his team is be-
hind or in front should take a
stroll to Monument Lot No. 9 to-
morrow and see Wheeler display
his wares against Plaza Wine and
Liquor. The game starts at 3
o'clock.
Now, fans, if you care to see a
pitching duel, I suggest the Heur-
ich-W. 0. W. game on the East
Ellipse. The Brewers are sending
Archie Scrivener to the hill who,
when right, is almost unbeatable.

Ey the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, April lin a general
rush of buying today wheat went sky
ward 21s cents bushel.
Sensationally bullish aspects OF
Government forecast that United
States 1896 Winter wheat production
will be 27,OO0.0O0 to 100000 bushels
less than authoritative private esti-
mates gave chief impetus to the soar
ing of prices. In addition was liberal
export purchasing of Canadian wheat,
together with news that Turkey Is
pressing to remilitarize the Darda-
nelles.
Wheat closed firm at nearly the
days top point, l1sa11s above Thurs
days finish, May, 96l4a96as; July. 87a
871s; Corn, 1sa?4 up, May, 6O9s; Oats,
1sa3a advanced, and provisions un-
changed to rise of 10 cents.
Acting as a curb on bullish enthusi-
asm and leading at times to setbacks
of about a cent a bushel for wheat
were assertions from Chicago unofficial
crop experts that the Governments
estimate of yield takes into account all
growth conditions the remainder of
the season, rather than conditions as
they existed April l. Such an official
forecast, it was urged, was an attempt
at predicting weather the next four
months, and thus amounts purely to
guesswork. A further check on specu-
lative buying was rain and snow today
in Western Kansas, Western Okla
homa and Eastern Colorado.
Tending also to temper the bullish
effect of the Government report was
the circumstance that recent private
forecasts of Winter wheat yield had
presented an absurdity in making the
April estimates larger than March
after emphasizing the i'll results OF
drought the month intervening. More
over, some trade authorities contended
today the total wheat yield this season
will turn largely on the Spring wheat
crop. 1t was pointed out that at pres
ent the soil and moisture conditions
for Spring wheat are decidedly better
than year ago.
Corn, oats and rye firmed with
wheat.
Provisions advanced, responsive to
prospective curtailment of hog
arrivals.

The Mardi Gras celebration con- ducted this week by the Casper S.. Davis, Jr., Post of the American Legion is providing one of the fin- est programs ever brought to Wa terville. The booths on the open lot on Thomaston avenue opposite Welch street attracted a large crowd Monday night. The circus, as was to be expected, held the attend- ance down last night but heavy pa- trOnage is expected during the re- mainder of the week. In addition to the usual carnival attractions of- fered by the 1nardi gras there are many new and novel features. The rnerry-go-round and ferris wheel which have never heretofore been offered as local attractions are be- ing particularly well patronized.
 The Davis Post of the Legion has gone to considerable trouble in se- curing a fiaardi gras organization which will give Waterville a clean carnival with worthwhile attrac- tions and hopes for the full sup port of the community in this eti- terprise.
