Chicago. Aug. 14 With the wheat
market showing a gain of I cent over
the opening price at the close this
afternoon, the bull traders had the reins
of trade well In hand. A feeling of
prosperity throughout the exchange
made Itself felt In the day's operations.
I lie Armour interests were heavy Buy
ers of wheat, and to this one Influence
more than anvthlng else Is the strength
exhibited In the pit today attributed.
Leading traders on the bull side are
now predicting that prices will overtop
the dollar mark before the end of next
week All reports are of a bullish na
lire. DcaplLn tho big rainfall of the
past few days in the grain belts, the re
oris or crop shortages sre dally tie
omlng more definite and convincing
and bear manipulators who have ere
ated a fluctuating market during the
past week for speculative purposes are
Imost ready v admit defeat. Thev
are showing every Inclination to protect
themselves on runner breaks.

Heaviest Yields of Wheat This Year
Are on Poorest Soil.
Pendleton. " Or., Aug. 14. As harvest
progresses In Umatilla county several
extraordinary features are noticed by
close observers. One of the most sur
prising features of the present season
Is the heavy yields on the light land In
the north and northwest portions of the
oountv and the reduced yields of the
heavier land In the center of the wheal
belt.
Jt is now estimated that the O. R. &
N.. which penetrated the heart of the
wheat belt, will havf but half of Its
usual tonnage of wheat this season
from Athena. Weston, Adams, Eastland
and other shipping points, while the
Northern Paclrlc, which penetrates a
lighter soil district, will have fully 75
per cent of its usual tonnage.
As the Harvest progresses In the
northwest part of the county the yield
of the light land Is surprising and
proves conclusively that the lighter soli
will produce a Trcp under great diffi
culties, as but very little rain has vis
ited that portion of the county this sea
son. Also the weight of the grain Is sur
prising. While the yield has been cut
down, somewhat, the wheat testa all
the way from 59 to 62 pounds per
bushel.
Attendance at the board of trade yes
terday and today broke all records.
More than 30 members were on the
floor, but no sales were made. The
strong Indications of a bull market here
this fall for wheat are shown bv the
steadfast refusal of grain holder's to
turn loose any of their supply on the
market. Notwithstanding that higher
prices were offered in Portland on sev
eral occasions than the Chicago market
warranted, intending buyers could not
get any wheat.
Today, realizing the futility of bid
ding until the market has steadied down
and traders know, where they Htand, tho
brokers stood aloof and only one so II
tary bid was recorded and that for oats.

The Shaft of Ridicule.
President Hadley of Yale In his last
annual report said that the Idle rich
were as great a curse to a college as
to a community.
Ridicule, could It but be employed,
would turn the Idle rich undergraduate
to Industry," said President Hadley t
a dinner in jew tiaven; DUt unfor
tunately this young man, with his
panoply of motor cars, hunters and
bulldogs, Is not very vulnerable to
ridicule. RIMies, alas! are not so
ridiculed as say low stature."
He smiled.
"A tiny decadent poet," ha resumed, 1
"launched at a Philadelphia literary I
'club Into a passionate tirade against
Tiiarrlage. It whs great nonsense, that
tirade, but the little poet was eloquent, j
and his younger auditors were visibly 1
Impressed. -.
"With a contemptuous smile a robust
novelist of the wholesome type watched
the spouting poet pace the room, d
at the end of an Impressive period the
novelist chuckled and said:
"'Sit down. Brown; sit down. 1011
look taller sitting down. "

Scared the Darky.
Renrennntativa Brick of South Bend,
Ind., rejoices In the Christian name of
'Ahrnhnm Lincoln." He Is proud of the
name, and has It engraved in full on
his calling cards.
One dav Mr. Brick had occasion to
call at the home of Vice-President Fair
banks. He produced his card and hand
ed It to the negro butler. The darkey
could read a little, but not much. He
glanced at the card, and gasped. Then
he made a break for the vice-president's
study. He was several shades lighter
and his kinky hair was almost straight
when he faced the vice-president.
"Ko' de Lawd's sake," he gasped.
"Marse Abe Llnkum done come back to
life an' he's out thar at the doo' axing
fo' vou. Sompln opful's gwlne happen
sho'." '
It was quite a while before the scared
negro could be persuaded! to show Mr.
Brick in.
Albert T. Patrick, whose own cleverness and legal ability, saved him
from the electric chair in 1906, has made another move in his own be
half, this time in the form of an appeal to the supreme court of the
I'nited States. Patrick is now in Sing Sing, under sentence of life
imprisonment for the alleged ni tirder of Williain M. Rice. His ap
peal is based on the argument that ho should either be electrocuted
as a guilty man, or b&. freed as an innocent one.

An Income of 900,000 is not a despic

perfect, from the shoulder knots, which
cost more than the uniform Itself, to
Jeweled accoutrements fit for an ori
