Jac 35,@3 ‘confectioners’ A, Tushed, 4 8- granulated, .CHICAGO, March 16.—Wheat—The early cable- grams from Liverpool and Paris were rather easier. Shipments of Wheat and Flour from both coasts of this country were about 500,000 bushels smaller than on the week before. Those were the most in- fluential factors at the opening, and consequently prices started at a decline of about 14c compared with vesterday's closing. With the exception of the cables and the week’s clearances there was nothing else bearish in the day’s news. There were numerous dispatches from the southwest pointing 10 the possibility of injury to the winter Wheat and the scarcity of the article in the country. May Wheat opened at from 57¢ down to 5834c, und ranged between 5684c as its bottom edge up to 5734c as the top range. It closed at the lowest it or practically so, the latest trading price be- ng 5655@5634C. Corn—The corn-traders had enother day’s yawn- ing experience. Business in the pit was small aud ended with quiet prevailing. The opening was et from 4613@4614c. It dropped Lo 46c, recovered to 4614c and closed at 46@46ljpc. The easy feeling in wheat and rather liberal estimates for Monday’s Teceipts caused the decline, Oats remained dull. Fluceations were very nar- row and principully easier. May started at 28%c, s0ld at 2933@29%4sc and closed there. Provisions—The opening in pork was at an vance on yesterday’s close of from 214C to Tlgc per barrel, but the ruling conditions were toward a decline, but the market rallied and closed strong. “The chinges since yesterday are 214c rise in pork, be decline in lard, and ribs are left unchanged.

I 50 5014 A BLOW AT “PAPER TRADING.” Tre board of directors of the Produce Exchange has formulated an amendment to the constitution, vhich will be submitted to the Exchange for ratiti- cation. It provides that any member of the Ex- change or Call Board who shall deal in differences in grain fluctuations without bona-fide purchase and sale of the commodity dealt in shall be consid- ered guilty of unmercantile conduct, and conse- guently be deemed unworthy of membership in the Exchange; and, furthermore, that for the iirst offense he may be suspended and for the second offense expelled from the Exchange. This is a direct blow to firms that speculate on_differences in_quotations without actually handling grain, properly called “bucket-shops.’” LUMBER EXPORTS. Exports of Lumber from San Francisco during the first two months of the year were 2,664,000 feet, against 2,187,000 during the same time last year.

Harrison's circular contains the following: “During the week 24,683 tons of Coal have arrived from the northern collieries and one cargo from Newcastle, 3700 tons. The brisk de- mand for domestic uses hns moderated, as the ‘weather has become milder, hence British Colum- bia products are accumulating in yard. The call for steam grades evidences 1o falling off, showing that trade in the manufacturing line Is sustaining itself. Factories cannotattribute a lack of profit in their products to the cost of fuel, as its average cost this year will be lessithan ever before. Thisis mainly aitributable Lo the reduction of the duty, the entire amount of which has gone to consumers. Another reason for 10w prices this year is the re- duced cost of Coal at Newcastle, N. 8. W., the de- livery price there in some cases béing the lowest ever known. The tonnage listed from Swansea i3 increasing, with most of the Coal sold prior to being loaded there. This anthracite Coal is becoming a formidable competitor 10 Ausiralian for steam uses; it has the advantage over the Iatter of being free 'of duty.

Common-sense is so useful that it is a pity-all of us have not more of it. ‘Women have a nice way of being mean that men cannot hope to equal. Girls don’t love their brothers, and few of them have any reason to. Unsuallr a mother doesn’t whip her boys oftener because she can’t catch them. ‘Women like to quarrel as well as men, but they insist upon quarreling their way. It is very economical to fall in love with a girl who thinks that theaters are wicked. As a rule the truth is more disagreeable looking than a lie and doesn’t move in as good society. ‘When a man isin love he sometimes ets his symptons mixed up with that tired eeling. 1t is a good plan, even whena man hasn’t done anything, for him to often ask his wife to forgive hi Asa rule women say almost everything else of a woman who is engaged, except that she is too young to marry. Time is very stubborn. When a man is pressed for time it flies fast, but when he 1s waiting for it to pass it goes slow. Schoolteaching is a woman's profession. Men don’t look any better teaching school than they would crocheting. 1f 2 man stays in bed all day, he makes but one mistake. If he gets u}w and goes to work, he makes a dozen before the day is done. As a rule men who mysteriously disap- pearand who are believed by their rela- tives to have been made way with get married. Girls who are indifferent piano players can be induced to take a feverish zeal in music by presenting them with a few finger-rings. Saying nothing at the right time is as important as saying the right thing at the right time, and easier, for it is extremely difficult to decide what the right thing is. It is quite easg, however, to say nothing.— Atchison Globe. e ————— About Stevenson’s Books. Stevenson had a horror of journalism— indeed, was unfitted for journalism; so he worked at such matters as fell in his way, and as his health at the moment did not forbid him to undertake. His two master- pieces in humerous and sentimental travel were intended to make a little money—ludi- crously little; but *‘Travels With ‘a Don- key” is still only in its seventh thousand. The book on Edinburgh was a commission, as_has been said, from the Portfolio. He has told the public how want of pence forced him on a story, how a dream (as ‘Walpole says about his own ‘‘Castle of Otranto”) suggested ‘‘Jekyll and Hyde.” Stevenson wrote it rapidly and offered it to the editor of Longman’s for his maga- zine. But the editor justly deemed that the book should be read’right through, not divided over spaces of a month. Itappeared, therefore, as a shilling volume, and has had about a fifth of the popularity of “‘Called Back,” a singular instance of the eneral taste. Thus circumstances_caused Mr. Stevenson to eparpiller his genius, and 1 fear that he has fallen under the reproach of versatility, so fatal in a country like ours. All that he did was of the best. He charmed his readers is a score of different ways; even biography he undertook in a spirit of loyal friendship: even the drama he attempted (in alliance with Mr. Henley) —his drama, I fear, laudatur et alget. Thus he was versatil The reproach cannot be evaded, but it is just, as well as charitable, to lay the blame on inevitable circumstance as much as on the agility of his mind and the variety of his interests.—Andrew Lang, in Longman’s Magazine. ————————— It is estimated that the annual sales of German toys in England amount to $10,- 000,000.
