nurture and the admonition of the
Lord.
r'rof. .1. T. Meyer. in saying
that the legislature cannot make
laws depriving a person of his lib

burg, while others have been placed
at Blair, Teftamah and Kennard.
Progress " 'a also reported in the

Omaha Will Tango This
Year, Says W. L. Keep
"Yes. Omaha (lance-goers will tango
this year," said W. L. Keep of Keep's
Dancing academy at ISIS Farnam
street yesterday regarding the sea
son's dances "I sent our Mr. MacFar
lane to New York to look things over
on tho dancing line. Mr. MacFarlane
comes direct from Hammersmith
academy, London, England. He is well
known In America, having taught in
leading academies. From reports the
American tango seems to he the pop
ular dance, although the old-fashioned
waltz Is quite noticeable with some
new variety steps in fox trot and
one step.
"Mr. Keep's professional instructors
teach all branches of dancing. The
ballet, group and Egyptian will be
under the direction of Mrs. Keep, and
stage exhibition, soft shoe and chorus
will be handled by Mr. MacFarlane.
Mr. Keep intends to have feature
dances every Saturday' night, when lie
will have contests on waltz, one step,
fox trot and tango. For the opening
dance Saturday night, Mr. MacFar
lane and Mrs. Keep will give a ball
room exhibition of the new style tan
go, called the “American tango.”
Back to Dogless Home;
Megeaths Lose Puppy
Maybe the little wire-haired fox ter
rier pup owned by J. E. Megeath,
Longview. West Dodge, feels slighted
and out of place in this wireless age.
Maybe he just believes in taking a
vacation every so often. Anyway, he
turned up mtssing for the second time
in two and a half months a week ago
last Sunday. Moreover, he refuses
to disappear on any day but Sunday.
He staged his first disappearance
act one Sunday about the first of
June. Later, after much advertising
on the part of his owner, he was pick
ed up at Valley, Neb., and returned.
August 6, whila Mr. and Mrs. Me
geath were in Colorado on a vacation,
Junior vanished again. Maybe he
went on a vacation of his own; maybe
he set off to join his master, and may
be he eloped. Anyway, Mr. and Mrs.
Megeath are back home, but the pup
is still D. G. W. O. L. Junior Is a
year and a half old and has been
taught to sit up, beg and do other
tricks. He is white with black mark
ings on the body and a brown and
black head.

I here w as a very ©nod demand for the
better grades of t ash wheat on the
<>maha market, selling at lr to 2c higher
than yesterday. The onltnsry grades,
however, w er« quoted about unchanged,
torn was in good demand, 1e to 2c higher.
Oats were ’*0 to higher, being gener
ally higher. Rye was quoted lq
higher, and bailey unchanged to lc
higher.
After an initial dip In wheat, influ
enced by the lower Liverpool cables, com
mlasion houses became moderate buyers
and prices in the Chicago futures market
took an upward slant, but trade was
light and the market easily Influenced,
most of the business being in spreads
between September and December. On
the advance pressure increased and high
est prices were not maintained. Later
in the session eommisainji houses, as well
as local traders, became sellers, causing
a sharp decline, with final figures around
the Jo west of the clay.
September corn developed surprising
strength through buying by a prominent
commission house Numerous stop-loss
orders were reached on the way up, ac
celerating the advance.
('ash corn did not participate in this
strength and was a shade lower, hut this
was not considered a bearish argument,
as the adjustment should have been made
before this time. The opinion prevailed
that, with September closer the cash, the
position was strengthened for the cash
interests.
Oats were steady and not much
changed.

Georgs M Lecount wires from Moose
Jaw. Saskatchewan, August lb: Much
wheat being cut from Saskatoon south,
but wheat Is not ripening properly. !s a

Record Wheat Cargo Loaded—Rosen -
baum Grain company has Just finished
loading the steamer Gamma at Galveston,
containing 424,000 bushels of grain, the
largest cargo ever loaded at that port.
Kansas City: Elevator stocks of wheat
in Kansas City have increased 3,763,000
bushels since July 23. compared with an
increase of 1.671,000 bushels in the cor
responding time last season when re
ceipts were 6 per cent larger than they
have been this year. Several elevators
said they expected to accumulate until
about October 1, with the total probably
reporting lo.O00.000 bushels. There are
probably 1,000 cars of wheat on track
which will account for an increase of
about 1,Oho,000 bushels in stocks. It was
said a large® part of the stored grain is
said to be for Minneapolis mills.
Liverpool: While the demand for wheat
In the United Kingdom cannot be con
sidered very active, there appears to be
soma improvement in the inquiry and
buyers are more interested. Offerings
of Manitoba* continue in good volume
but are not being pressed for sale. Platte
sorts are a trifle more firmly held while
offerings of Indian wheats arc leas plenti
ful. There is a moderate business pass
ing in Platte corn but trade in American
mixed is Inactive, in fact offerings of the
latter are negligible.
Modern Miller says: Disappointing
threshing returns continue to come from
the Dakotas and Minnesota. Harvesting
is well advaced In the northern sections;
threshing delayed by rain in southern
portions.
Rather numerous complaints of dam
age to wheat in shock from territory.
Reports of some fall plowing done in
practically all aectiona.

New Vork, Aug 17.—The stock market
< lowed higher today in the fac,. of profit
taking nh les bv the speculative trader*.
The action of lb« market, according to
observers, has led to renewed confidence,
on the part of pools. Hope of a satis
factory settlement between France and
Germany, and the favorable foreign trade
oalance for this country in July added
to i ho optimism now prevalent in th**
street. Big pool managers are now bul
lish on the outlook.
General Motors, Dupont. Studebaker,
Steel. Baldwin and American >'an sold at
th“ high price for the movement. A
creeping attitude developed In the copper
stocks, with such standard issues an
Anaconda and Smelting moving forward
See Better Trade.
With a settlement of the Franco-Ger
man situation and with a restoration of
credit in central Europe, Jt is believed
that large amounts of the red metal will
hr shipped across the water.
A new hl.nrh for General Motors caused
» sharp advance In Dupont. Humors that
General Motors would pay an extra
dividend later in the year means a big
increase in Dupont's income because of
its holdings of General Motors. Optimistic
utterances arc beard concerning Baldwin
and American Can
Oil stocks responded to the better
understanding of conditions in the Indus
try. Standard Oils and independent
shares showed a good recovery front the
low points A rumoi was prevalent that
the head of one big Independent company
was buying oil stockr.
Firmer Quotation*.
Strength of the steel stocks <s based on
the belief of high prices for pig iron and
semifinished products. Firmer quotations
rnay be influenced by the shorter day
which, it is figured, will ultimately re
sult in higher prices for steel.
t'otton. grain and foreign exchange
were slightly lower I’rofit taking ap
peared in cotton but i he slightly lower
closing of foreign exchange win not taken
to mean anything serious in political
negotiat ions.
A generally firm tone prevailed in
bonds. Erie general 4» sold at the best
prices in weeks. Specialties continued
