I 1 i Wheat Increases 2,466,000 Bu World's Shipmea|s.^^ 7,872,000. Jpr 7%*^ Kansas City Receives Nearly 7 One Million Bushels of Wheat. Minneapolis September and De y^cember Sell at Lowest Point in Years. Minneapolis Chamber of Commerce, July 80. World'* shipments were about a million bushels over the estimate, giving the Liverpool cables a heavy undertone. This, with the largest re ceipts at Chicago tor years, caused rather free selling on the curb, ourb sales being made at 75)4 c, but the opening was fractionally higher on a little covering by scattered shorts. Rather free soiling led by Lewis filled up the small demand, the market breaking to the lowest point on the crop, 74%c for September by noon. Commission men had quite a few resting orders In the market at this price which absorbed of ferings fairly well. Trade, however, has been very light and mainly of a scalping character among the professionals. While the professionals are very bearish, they are not Inclined to press the feort side too far these price and the lack of outside BpsculatlTe interests tejads to keep prices within a very narrow range. The cash demand was good, with prices hold ing Arm, No. 1 northern selling at 2%c over September and Mo. 2 northern at %c over. Lo cal stocks decreased 820,000 bu for two days.

Charles E. Lewis, who has just returned from a trip thru the northwest, says: Have Just re turned from my second visit thru the Red river valley and Winnipeg There la no ineetio about the short acreage in the valley south, of Grafton and considerable of the seeded area iu the valley Is spotted, but the outside country is big, and the general opinion is that the crop will be large Made a trip over thru the St. Croix valley in Wisconsin yesterday and bar resting of oats and barley is general on both sides of the river, with the heaviest stand of grain 1 ever saw. General business is tremen dous and It looks like a boom all along Ihe line. The appearance of the big increase the vis ible supply gave the bears more courage and thoy hammered the market down until It was a full cent below the opening figure. Scattered buying on the decline took care of the offerings, resulting in a rallx of half the loss shortly be fore the close. THE FLOUR MARKET SHIPMENTS HEAVIER AND IMPROVEMENT NOTICED IN DOMESTIC DEMAND. Millers report some little improvement In the demand for both domestic and foreign account and shipments are running a little heavier. Buyers as a rule, however, are holding off, believing In lower prices, and will not come In to any extent as long as the wheat market keeps weak. Shipments, 61,464 brls.

Completely cured, and skipping with joy at her recovery, Lolita Armour, only child and heiress of J. Ogden Ar mour, came home to Chicago Friday after spending several months in the care of Dr. Lorenz, the famous Vienna surgeon, whose bloodless surgery rout ed the congenital hip disease that once threatened to4 make the child an in curable invalid. Tbe little girl, whose face and name are known in every corner of the world, so widespread has been the in terest in the fight her parents have made for her restoration to health, came home a day in advance of her father and mother. Mr. and Mrs. J. Ogden Armour are expected today, and with Lolita they will go direct to the Gade residence in Lake Forest, where they will spend the summer. Two nurses and a French governess accompanied the little heiress of the house of Armour to Chicago. Her grand mother, Mrs. P. D. Armour, accom panied by a footman, was waiting at the Pennsylvania road's station for the child. Scarcely had the train stopped when Lolita sprang to the ground and ran toward her grandmother, shouting glee fully: "See how well I am, grandma see how well I am. I am just as well as I can be," she said later. "We had a fine time abroad, and Dr. Lorenz is one of my best friends. But 1 am awfully glad to get back in Chicago, because that is where live and I have so many friends here. Besides, I must look over my ponies, for I am to drive in the Lake Forest horse show next week." Miss Lolita lunched with her grand mother at the latter's home, 2115 Prai rie avenue, and in the afternoon went to t&e home of her father at 3724 Mich igan avenue, where she dined last night in solitary state and retired early. THIS MARE AN "HEIRESS" The Sum of $1,500 Was Set Apart "by Owner for Maud L.'s Seeping.. New York Tribune. In a green pasture on the outskirts of Chicopee, Mass., is- an old gray mare which is an heiress, made so by one of the most noted lawyers of Massachu setts and a former United States dis trict attorney, George M. Stearns. Altho the lawyer has been dead eleven years, the mare is sleek, fat and healthv, and the only sign of old age creeping on is the change in her once shapely figure. She has nothing to do all day but browse in the meadows, for Mr. Stearns stipulated in his will that she was not to be worked, and in win ter she spends her days in a warm box stall. The sum of $1,500 was left for the mare, whose name is Maud L., and this accession of wealth has brought some trials, for the hdrse was once a racer, and even now she would like to get out on the road and have a try with some roadster. However, she is' of an excel lent disposition and seems to be con tented with a simple Iffe and a cow for a companion. July 36 f905. mo.

"To be sure," was the gracious re sponse of the cheery "mother" of the tent to the request of the inquirers. "Just make yourselves comfortable," and easy campchairs were placed at our disposal. "Yes, the ladies are usually pretty busy at this hour, for, you see, the clothes must be dried by noon." "What a funny sight those clothes lines were. On one snort line, between tentpoles, hung pink tights, pale-green trunks, half a dozen pairs of sandals, a silk underskirt and two kerchiefs. The laundry man has been here and two washerwomen alsb, but there are always some things one cannot send/' said a laughing, brown-eyed girl, as she vigorously rubbed on a small washboard set in a big tin pan. "Cold water? Of coursebut we don't mindand aside from the saving we know the washing will suit. At least we're sure of having things done our way. Why, one of the irls once sent some tights to the laundry and they came back starched. Yes! Just fancy it! She had badly sprained her wrist and was too proud to ask the rest of us to do her washing, but after that (and a good cry) she let us help, and she's been for two months now trying, as she says, 'to get even.' "You see, we're really fast like a large family, and tho one has prefer ences it is best to live together as Eeaceably as possible, so we all just elp where we can." And she turned to help fasten the waist o h-er jieUch bor. who was pnttinff on a stylish but modest shirtwaist suit to goaown tQ-^m. n^^MJ QUESTION O METHODS.
