Business in wheat was brisk. The closo was %c lower than yesterday. Corn was dull, closing at_a decline of ie for the day. Provisions were nover before speculated in on 80 small a seale. The nominal closing prices are a triflo lTower than yesterday. Bradstroet's figures holped drag the wheat market down at the start. Tho claim was made that 90,000,000 bu. of whoat would be on hand July 1, which would more than make ood deficiencies in the crop, as damage had been groatly overestimated.

In looking back across the years, with all their blunders and follies, it is comforting to romember that at loast I have nover thought to deseribo the canon of the Colorado. A hint, a suggestion, a faiut and ridiculously inadequate comparison are all that are possible. Whoso tries more, a senso of the balanco of things is not in him. There is one Grand Canon of the Colorado, Nothing else on earth 1s like it, orap- proaches it, or prepares for it, or suggests it. 11 you would see tho first and the last place in the world, go to it. ‘That is, of course, if youarea forcigner. 1f avo an Ameri- can, snub tho canon and dor off across for somo sight more befitting patriotic “ W ove .

Ommipotence itself could only put it there to wait to be seen, and sight is the sole teacher of this most ineffable thing that exists within the range of man.
