"Kahlest thing in the world to get on

himself.
He drove into a village of half a doz
en houses or so, which reminded him
of the pictured abodes of Noah and his
brethren. An astonished innkeeper,
whose morning attire apparently con
sisted of trousers, shirt and spectacles,
ushered hlin Into a bare room with a
trestle table. (Juy produced his phrase
book.
- "Hungry:" he said vociferously.
"Want to eat! Coffee!"
The man appeared to understand,
but In case there should have been any
mistake fiuy followed him Into the
kitchen. The driver, who had lost no
Mine, was already there, with a long
glass of beer before him. Guy produc
ed a mark, laid it on the tabic, touched
himself, '.lie Innkeeper and the driver
and pnintod to the beer. The innkeep
er understood, and the beer was good.
The driver, who had been of course
ludicrously overpaid, settled down In
Ills corner and announced ills intention
of seeing through to the end this most
extraordinary and heaven directed oc
currence. The innkeeper and his wife
busied themselves with the breakfast,
and Guy made remarks every now and
then from his phrase book, which were
usually Incomprehensible, except when
they concerned a further supply of
Iwor. Willi a brave acceptance of the
courtesies of the country, he had ac
cepted a cigar fmn the d"lver and
was already contemplating the awful
moment when he would hive t) light

It was something very oi'lclul. liu'

his hat. Then I hero came words, hut
Guy was busy with his phrase book.
"I cannot a word of German speak,"
he announced at last.
A deadlock ensued. The innkeeper
and the driver rushed into the broach.
Canversatlon became furious. Guy
took advantage of the moment to slip
tho cigar into his pocket and to light a
cigarette. Finally the olilcer swunp.
himself round nnd departed abrupt'y
"Dolmelscher," the driver annouuc
xl to him triumphantly.
"Dohnetscher," the Innkeeper re
peated.
Guy turned it up in hts phrase book
and found -that It meant Interpreter.
He devoted himself then to sthnulat
uig tho preparations for breakfast.
The meal was ready at last. There
were eggs and ham and veal, dark col
red bread and coffee, sutlicient for
about u dozen people. The driver con
stituted himself host, and Guy, with a
shout of laughter, sat down where ho
was and ate. In the midst of the meal
tho olilcer reappeared, ushering In a
small, wizen faced individual of un
mistakably English appearance. Guy
turned round In his chair, nud the
newcomer touched his forelock.
"Hullo!" Guy exclaimed. "You're
English!"
"Yes, sir," the man answered. "Came
over to train polo ponies for the I'rlneo
of Haepsburg. Not In any trouble, 1
hope, sir?"
"Not I," Guy nnswered cheerily.
"Don't mind my going on with my
breakfast, do you? What's It all
about? Who's the gentleman with tho
flrenmu's helmet on, and what's ho
worrying about?"
"He Is an olilcer of the police, sir, on
special service," the man answered.
"You have been reported for trespass
ing ou the state railway this morning."
"Trespassing be blowed!" Guy an
swered. "I've got my ticket for the
frontier. We were blocked by signal

understood them to say that we could
not go on for half an hour or so. They
never tried to stop my getting down,
and then oft they went without any
warning and left me there."
"I will translato to the olilcer, sir,"
the man said.
"Itlght," Guy declared. "Go ahead."
There was a brisk colloquy between
'Hie two. Then the little man began

"The ollicer wishes to know whether

"Can't say," Guy answered. "I sleep
very soundly, and I never opened my
eyes after the first few minutes."
"The oiUccr wishes to know whether
you saw anything unusual upon tho
line," the little man asked.
"Nothing at all," (Juy answered cool
ly. "Hit Inquisitive, Isn't ho?"
The little man cnnio a little closer to
tho table.
"He wishes to see your passport,
sir," he announced.
Guy handed It to him; nlso a letter
of credit and several other documents.
"lie wants to know why you were
going to the frontier, sir."
"Sort or fancy to say that I'd been

SCENES ARE WILDEST IN HIS
TORY OF CHICAGO EXCHANGE.
CIIAPTKU lb.
XACTLY n week later, at five
minutes after midnight, Guy
l'oynton, In Immnculato even
ing dress, entered the Cafo
Montmnrtrc In Paris. Ho made his
way through the heterogeneous little
crowd of men and women who were
drinking at the bar, past the scarlet
coated orchestra, Into the Inner room,
where the tables were laid for supper.
Monsieur Alfred, satisfied with the ap
pearance of his new client, led him at
once to a small table, submitted the
wine carte and summoned a waiter.
With some dlljlculty, as his French
w.i.i very little better than his Ger
man, he ordered supper and then,
lighting a cigarette, leaned back
against the wall and looked round to
see If he could discover any English
or Americans.
The room was only moderately full,
for the hour was a little early for this
quarter of Paris. Nevertheless he was
quick to appreciate a certain spirit of
Iloliemiauism which pleased him. Ev
ery one talked to their neighbors. An
American from the further end of the
room raised his glass and drank his
health. A pretty, fair haired girl lean
ed over from her table and smiled at
him.
"Monsieur like talk with me, eh?"
"English?" ho asked.
"No. Do Wleu!"
lie shook his head smilingly.
"Wo shouldn't get on," he declared.
"Can't speak the language."
She raised her eyebrows with n pro
testing gesture, but ho looked away
and opened an Illustrated paper by his
Bide. lie turned over the pages Idly
enough at first, but suddenly paused.
Ho whistled softly to himself and
stared at the two photographs which
filled the sheet.
"Ity Jove!" he said softly to himself.
There was a rustling of skirts close
to his table. Au unmistakably English
voice addressed him.
"Is it anything very interesting? Do
show me!"
Ho looked up. Mile. Flossie, pleased
with his appearance, had paused on
her way down the room.
"Come and sit down, and I'll show it
you," ho said, rising. "You're English,
aren't you?"
Mile. Flossie waved a temporary
adieu to her friends and accepted tho
Invitation, lie poured her out a glass
of wine.
"Stay and have supper with mo," he
begged. "1 must bo oil' soon, but I'm
tired of being alone. This Is my last
night, thank goodness!"
"All right!" she answered gayly. "I

Cent Rise in a Week.
Chicago, May 14. In tho most son
sational opening In the history of the
Chicago board of trade, wheat shot
past tho dollar mark. Heavy realizing
bales pushed the price backward some
what, hut at the close the market was '
strong, and, according to the majority
of speculators on the board, the de
mand upon which the late advance has
been made is still unsatisfied.
The net advance for wheat was 4
cents. From the low point of Monday I
of last week July wheat has advanced
13!54c, September has gone up 15:,l4c
and December lC-yic.
It was a certainty that a strong
bulge would take place lu the wheat
market at the opening. Country or
ders have been pouring In seemingly
In an endless stream and In ohedlcnco
to them brokers stood ready to buy
millions of bushels at the market.
Shorts were In a highly norvous con
dition and eager to cover. Tho result
was that as soon as tho gong sounded
there was a terrific roar of voices all
anxious to buy and nothing to sell.
The market was too big and broad to
bo followed by any certainty and
brokers filled orders frequently 7
cents away from tho point at which
they had hoped to buy. Tho con
fusion was so great that for a few
minutes but little actual business was
transacted, tho brokers lighting and
struggling In the effort to get hold of
wheat from anybody at any price.
December had a wider range than
either of tho other options and tho
opening quotations ranged at all fig
ures between OGVdc and $1.03.
Tho rush of buying orders seemed
to come from almost every city In the
United States which was situated
along a telegraph wire. They camo
from Winnipeg and from Louisiana,
and from points on tho Pacific and At
lantic seaboard. Tho professional
traders wero of tlio opinion that tho
opening was a little too vigorous. As
soon as trade steadied a triflo millions
of bushels wore thrown upon tho mar
ket in realizing sales and tho advance
for a time was checked. Tho buying
orders, however, still poured In and
the market soared up again. Again
tho long wheat came out and brought
about a reaction, and again tho coun
try buyers forced it up. Tho situa
tion was too strong for any man or
any cliquo of men to stop. Tho coun
try at largo seemed determined to
buy wheat at whatovor price It could

bo had. There were no claims In any
direction that tho market was being
manipulated. The general opinion
seemed to bo that tho advance waa
based on natural conditions which aro
certain to curtail in a large degree
tho world's coming crop of wheat.
Tho advices from all parts of the west
nnd northwest confirmed all previous
ronorts of damage by waether and in
sect, while tho telegrams from tho
Canadian northwest claimed thore was
no possibility of reseedlng In that dis
trict and that ovory day of delay
meant tho loss of thousands of acres
that might othorwise have been sown
to wheat.
Cablegrams reported tho mnrltets
at Liverpool and Budapest to be In a
highly excited condition, with prices
advancing strongly. Liverpool was de
clared to bo affected by gloomy re
ports from Russia and It was tho be
lief of many promlnont commission
mon that Kurope will bo forced to buy
heavily in the American marhot and
that tho American market, Instead of
boing ablo to moot this demand, will
bo scarcely strong enough to supply
such wheat as Is needed for homo con
sumption. Such prominent traders
as William H Tlnrtlett and James A.
Patten declared that tho conditions
warranted tlio Ronsational advance In
prices, declaring that tho wheat prob
loin for this year will be a difficult
ono or- European buyers to solve.
Among 'smaller traders, predictions
wero made that before tho present ad
vance lins stopped July wheat will go
certainly over $1.2G, and possibly to
S1.C0.
