The big 9poon billed crtta aro also seen for the first time and constitute a great attraction for the children. Thore are three specimens, each of which is nearly four feet long. They are more propei ly a species of stur geon, but they are colored like a cat and are commonly called by that name. Their distinguishing featuro is the long snout which protrudes fully ten inches from the upper lip, which is shaped very much like a paddle. The fish are common in some of tho south ern rivers and their flesh is very highly esteemed by the down south colored people. Among the novelties on exhibition is a small but perfect specmen of the octopus, or devil fish, -which is pre served in alcohol W. J.

Smith & Pafmele. - . rT. r,V 3 tS; W; Cr Sj pL SPECIAL MARKET LETTER The following market letter is tut uished us by McLaik Bros. & Co., Commission Merchants, Rialto Build ing, Chicago:' The bank clearings of the country during the past week show a decided improvement when compared with the previous week, notwithstanding the de crease at the south in copsequence of ellow fever apprehensions, and are the largest for a like period since the second week in August. The continued move ment of grain in large volume affords encouragement for holders of railway shares, and is the chief element of strength in the stock market. The outward movement of agricul tural products keeps foreign exchange near the gold importing point, and an influx would soon begin were it not for the flow of securities from England, which settles trade balances of that country without the necessity of its parting with the precious metal. The large purchases of wheat by France promise a gold movement from that tomitry to ours at no distant day. The wheat situation remains much the same save in its speculative feat ures, the recent decline having consid erably increased the short interest, leaving it in position to be rapidly advanced whenever anything of a strengthening nature is injected into the daily news. The supply and demand relations are now so nearly determined, and their results are so favorable to the export ing countries, that even though the market be unduly depressed by the pressure of increasing spring wheat re ceipts and the offerings of aggressive short sellers, an assured export demand will doubtless assert itself and cause a recovery from all such depressions. The northern hemisphere crops are now practically secured, and their out run and condition fairly well deter mined, and there are no substantial reasons for raising the earlier estimates of their promise; in fact in some of the larger European countries it has been necessary to lower the estimates; in Prance and Italy especially are the re sults disappointing, the oflicial returns nl lowing a shortage of about eighty-live millions of bushels in the former and lifty-six millions in the latter. The latest estimates of the I-iondon Jlcviac indicate that European importing coun tries will require from exporting coun tries during the crop year 4!O,O00,0OO bu of wheat, a quantity large enough to absorb all the prospective supplies, and to raise doubts as to the possibility of securing so great an amount. With an export demand such as these figures suggest, and the probability of a den-ease in Russian shipments, which late advices from that country indicate, Hie outlook for American farmers is promising indeed. The future of the market largely de peuds on the Russian movement; if it decreases materially there will be but little to prevent a substantial recovery in prices from every break, and possi bly an upward movement that will sur prise the trade. The southern hemi sphere crops are several months from maturity, and can afford no relief for an oversold market; their excellent promise will encourage short selling und prove an element of strength by creating an excessive short interest to be provided for. Our exports are now very large, and show no indications of abatement; such a free outward movement will absorb wheat enough lo prevent the first rush of northwestern wheat from becoming burdensome, and will prevent excessive accumulation before it is over. Winter wheat farmers seem disposed to await developments before parting with their reserves, and without liberal receipts from that source the spring wheat movement will not alarm the trade. Crop returns from the northwest necessitate a lowering of previous esti mates, and advices from the Pacific Coast state that considerable damage has been sustained in Oregon and Washington by unwelcome rains. Farmers in winter wheat sections are preparing to sow a large area to wheat, the breaking of the drouth having left the ground in a more favorable state for plowing. The recent break in corn has elim inated from the market a large vol ume of speculative holdings, and has increased the-short interest; the steady advance preceding the break not only created a large scattered long interest, but alsoincreased the movement from first hands and decreased the export and eastern consumptive demand, thereby adding rapidly to the in-store stocks; the decline will not only change the speculative M'tuation by reversing the long and short interests, but will also serve to check interior marketings and again enlarge the demand. How ever right the theories of a short crop may be, they are impotent to create an immediate consumptive demand for a present oversupply, and operators for an advance must await with patience the time when the shortage will be manifest In the supply. Corn when compared with wheat is low, and if anything occurs to materi ally advance the latter it will doubtless cause a speculative demand for the former which wiil provide for any tem porary excess in receipts. Country deal ers are accepting fewer bids, foreshad owing decreased receipts as soon as the P.1"1"" '"transit arrives at its destina tion. Ihe premiums existing for de- i ferred lntures will naturallv tend to I restrict the country movement by offer ing unusual inducements for carrying the grain in cribs or in elevators. The visible supply of grain in the United States and Canada shows the IMlowing changes for the past week Wheat increased 1,374,000 bu, corn in treased 133,000 bu and oats icreased L052.000bu.

How the Famous Dialect Novelist Made Ilia First Hit. The rr. an who IkuI sprung into r-uddeu prominence i:i tht literary world h:td grown a triSc rciuiuiaxiit under the influence of a feocd tigar and a small bottle, and one cf the members of the party decided tliat there could be uo better time to get the story of his e markable succei "I do uot ivcsill that any one tr be came more suddenly famous in the lit erary world than you." Kuggcsted the curious one. "I imagine that 1 came very close to breaking a record,' replied the literary light. "One day you were nnknown, and the next day every literary critic in the country was singing your praise and people were standing in Hue to I ny your books," continued the curious one. "Quite true. " admitted the literary light. "My reputation was made by a single Ftcry. and that 6tory might be called nu. accident. " "That's what I want to get at." ex plained the curious one. "I want' to hear the story of that story. Where did you get the idea and what impelled you to write it? What was your inspira tion?' ' The literary light laughed and reached for his glass. "Tho secret of that story is soon told," he said tx m:i as tho fclass was empty. "You ste, 1 had a typewriter." " Young and prfctty?" they all broke in. "Machine, not operator," explained the literary li.-ht. " iiacliiuo vas all I could afford at that tiiuo, und I had to get that ou the installment plan. 1 ran it myself, you know. " "Well? Goou." "One day I thoughtlessly went out without "putting tho cover on it, and my 5-year-old boy got at it. " "Couldn't run it, could he?" they asked. "Of course not, but I'd let him help me put the paper in and tako it out un til he had mastered that much of the operation of the machine, and as the click of it pleased him and there was no ono there to stop him he hammered away at it for about two hours." "But what has that to do with your story?" "That was the story," answered the literary li&ht. "When I saw what he had done, I gatherred the pages to gether, numbered them, got up a title and sent the whole thing to a leading magazino with a note saying that it was a dialect story of a Scotch-Welsh settlement that got mixed up with the Dutch in South 'Africa, and well, 1 haven't had to do a thing since then except buy tjpowritcrs tor the boy. He's a little bit rough at times, but so long as he doesn't smash over one ma chine a month 1 can afford it." Cbi- Fifty Hours In Trance. On Monday evening Sant:inelli will demonstrate to our citizens a new and startling fact. Ho will hypnotize young man. wnu at Hie conclusion oi the exhibition c.i. ry him lo Joe & Frank's clothing sicra on Main street, place him in a show window, wheiv he can be watched both dayui d niht by the pe'ier.il 1 ubiic until WednfS- day evening, when ho will be taken back to the theatre and awakened before Hie jiudiei.ct. .

This is one of the most valu ble tests produced through hypnosis, and opens up a new field of experi ment. Asher Clark, the enterprising grocer, has snown spienaia laste a well as -good business judgment in the purchase a few weeks ago, of the nicest line of chinaware ever brought to this city. He purchased before the new tariff went into effect, and his line received a few d iys ago is as nice as could be found in Omahn and al most one-baU choapov.
