This was the best record yet attained here. During last May and June, the shad run, 10,000 pounds of shad were ex ported from here. Chicago Board of Trade men pro fessed surprise when they heard the reports that an investigation into the operations of the Board of Trade Is to be made by the Department of Jus tice. The contention of the dealers Is that the Board of Trade as. an Insti tution in no way affects prices but simply affords a market where supply and demand may have free play in fixing the true, Just, natural price.

One who had bnen very rich slowly approached the gates of pearl. lie appeared to be iii doubt There was uolblug lu his mauner to Indicate that he expected to be wel comed with ou arms or a blare of trumpets. He saw others, those who had been poor and bumble upon the earth, walk up confidently to the splendid eutrance and gulu ready admittance. Frequently he paud as If he had decided to turn hack, but little by lit tle he drew uearer to the place where his fate was to be decided. At last he stood before the gate and peered through at the magnificent scene within. Then the saint who kept the key, perceiving him, asked: "Have you any credentials to pre sentr "No," replied the one who had been very rich. "The best I can hope for Is to ask that you will permit me to try to get a camel to pass through the eye of a needle. I don't suppose 1 can do It, but I will try. I have never be lieved lu giving up without making an effort" "Your remarks lead me to believe you were a rich man." "1 was a very rich man." "I suppose you were not always scrupulous in your dealings with other men?' "No." "Your riches were not the result of hard work and honest dealing?" "No. 1 gained my millions by lay ing burdens upon others, by cunningly evading laws that were made for the purpose of protecting the weuk and by engaging In enterprises that were of ten of a questionable nature." "I suppose you gave many millions to charity and did other things that were Intended to divert public atten tion from your reprehensible prac tices ?' "Yes. I can see now, however, that I might as well have saved myself the trouble. Giving to charity for selfish ends instead of for the love of giving. It appears from certain things which I have seen and heard since my arrival here, does not rank as a vir tue." "Well, If there Is nothing in your record which ought to entitle you to admittance here, why do you linger?" "There is one thing that I have thought might be considered in my fa vor." "What Is it?" "1 never went around after I had be come a multimillionaire trying to make people believe that I considered my wealth, a burden and was louglug to be poor again." "Wait. Don't go away. I think we may be able to fix it for you without applying the needle's eye test" Chi cago Uecord-FTer ih A Bern Leadar. "Why are you constantly referring to Bliggins as a leading cltlzeu?" "I can't help having an admiration for the man," replied Miss Cayenne.
