J. D. BOWERSOCK, Lawrence, Dear Sir: 1 want a sack of honest Grabam or Whole Wheat Flour. I find it impossible to get it at the Mills here. They take cheap flour and mix it with bran and shorts.

I have been advised that you make these goods straight, and without mixing. (Signed) J. E. Palco, Books Kansas. Springfield, December 6, 1894.

J. D. BOWERSOCK, Lawrence, Kas. Dear Sir: I learn that you make a pure article of Whole Wheat Flour. If this is a fact quote me price per hundred pounds at the mill and oblige.

C. M. E. For several years we have been interested in advising people to bay "TWILIGHT," which is simply a pure ground Graham or Whole Wheat Flour. Never anything else.

Never any mixture of any kind whatever. Simply Whole Wheat Flour. Again we ask, why pay two to four times as much for inferior and mixed wheat foods as the dealers chaige.for "TWILIGHT?" If you have white bread, then of course "HEAD CENTER," high patent, and 'A 1," second patent, are the brands you will order your dealer to send you.

ADMINISTRATION AND SILVER. Cleveland Will Probably Write a Letter on the Money nest lon A Plan to Colonize lieorgia with Old Soldiers. New York, April 13. The National Provisioner, the organ of the meat and provision trade, says: "No more absurd theory has been advanced for some time than the recent attempts which have been made to make the consuming public of this country be lieve that the shortage cattle, now so ajjparent everywhere, due to any other than natural causes. With a wisdom, however, begotten of ignorance and inability or disinclination to accurately investigate false and erroneous news has been trumpeted in every state in the union such an extent that the greater portion of the people of America are under impression to-day that this great food product is tied up in the vicious grasp of a monopoly.

It is absurd and unjust to couple the names of reputable business houses with conditions for which they are in way responsible. It would an absolute impossibility for a com bination of men, no matter what the extent of their capital was, to corner beef or cattle market, and the money has not yet been minted that can do it. A little philosophic reason ing and a glance over the past history attempts to corner meat products would readily demonstrate to our friends of the daily press how fallacious their arguments are in this particular instance." THE ADMINISTRATION AND SILVER. Washington, April 13. It is now certain that several members of the administration will take a prominent part in the political campaigns over the money question that will be carried on in different states.

The invitation of the Chicag-o business men to President Cleveland asking him to make an address in that city on the subject of the currency has been fol lowed by intimations from other places that the members of the cabinet were wanted to make similar addresses in order that the position of the administration may be placed upon the country in a most forcible way. The president has not yet answered the Chicago invitation, but if he finds it impossible go it is expected that he will decline a letter expressing clearly his views the subject of money. The campaign within the democratic party against the free coinage movement will no doubt take its keynote from the president's letter and the speeches which may be made by the members of the cabinet. The cam paign will be directed against the free coinage of silver at 10 to 1, and the as sertion will be made that such coinage would mean silver monometallism and would be disastrous to the business interests of the country, great and small, and extend to every class and condition, no matter in what pursuit engaged.

"Traveling' last summer by buck-board eastward over the plains that skirt the Penasco valley in New Mexico," said an amateur ranchman, "our trail for a lonj? distance lay through a sheep-grazing' country. It was a still, bright day, in which, owing to the rarefied air due to the high altitude, the August heat was not oppressive. Between us and the horizon, afloat in mirage, a few grazing cattle were seen, and, near at hand or far away, several flocks of sheep were usually in view. Early in the afternoon we passed a flock of about two thousand sheep pasturing so near the trail that we exchanged a 'Buenos dias' with the Mexican shepherd, lie rose from the blanket on which he had been lying and approached us, staff in hand, while his long-legged dog followed at a distance, holding aloof and growling suspiciously.

We gave the shepherd a handful of tobacco and a luHit for the cigarette which he proceeded to roll from a little square of corn husk that he took from a pouch in Lis ragged coat. He thanked us, and, as we started to drive on, remarked, with an expressive gesture toward the western mountain dimmed by pearly clouds like a mist: Va a Hover, (It is going to rain.) "Three miles ahead of vis was an adobe hut and corral, which might afford us shelter should it rain, which from all appearances we thought unlikely. But the rain came, and quickly. When we left the shepherd the sun was shiniDg in undiminished splendor, and the whole sky except that behind the mountains was clear. Before we had got half way to the hut raindrops were falling thickly as our first warning that the sky above had become over' cast, and that from the direction of the western mountains a dense cloud like a black mist, rent by lightning Hashes, was advancing toward us with the speed of a whirlwind.

My companion, Lon Tompkins, an old-timer, was driv ing, and he gathered up the reins and put the whip to the horses. 'We 11 make the best run we can for that he said. 'But the rain will catch us with all we can do." In a minute more it was raining hard with a dense downpour that hid alike the adobe house and corral ahead and the shepherd and his flock behind. Then came a brisk rattling upon the buckboard, a pelting of our hands and faces as if by birdshot, and hard white drops like pearls were rebounding from the backs of the horses, stinging and driving them forward like blows of a whip. It was the cutting of hail.

'Now it's neck or said Tompkins, as he grasped the reins more tightly and braced his feet against the dashboard. Jo need to urge forward the horses. All effort was directed to keep them under con trol as they gathered and sprang for ward with increasing speed under the sharp blows of hailstones that now were driving down as large as chest nuts and all the time coming thicker and larger. "Another minute and the horses were crouching and quivering and leaping from side to side under the ram 01 ice lumps tnat Druisea our hands and faces like the striking of pebbles. It was appalling, the weight and force with which they fell.

The horses were getting beyond control, just when, ahead and to the left, we saw looming through the ice torrent the towering shapes of trees. They were nearer than we thought. Tomp kins reined the horses sharply to the left. A dozen mad plunges onward; a thump, and the sharp grinding of a wheel hub against a tree trunk, as the buckboard careened and nearly threw us out; and lo! we were in an oasis of safety, out of the fury of the white downpour, beneath the broad spread ing branches of the grove of great cot tomvoods that tower about the muddy water hole at Las Alamosas. Ihe horses quieted down the in stant they passed beneath the sheltering branches and stood panting and steaming, their eyes swollen and blood shot from the cruel pelting of ice.

Our broad sombrero brims had some what shielded our faces, which, never theless, like our hands, were bruised and swollen. Tompkins' hands had suffered most, as he had beei com' pelled to expose them in handling the reins. Iut drenched and sore as we were, it was with content and thank' fulness that we leaned against the tree trunks, with leaves and twigs and scattering hailstones sifting thickly down upon us, while from the upper branches showers of broken foliage and glancing hail Were flying outward to mingle with the icy downpour. All the while there was the almost ceaseless crash and roll of thunder and flashing of lightning. In our haven of safety we remained until the thunder died away and the hailstones ceased to fall.

The rain. subsiding into a gentle patter, stopped as suddenly as it had begun, and the commotion of the elements receded to the west, where flashes of lightning broke from a rain cloud which still veiled the distant mountains. "A glorious burst of sunlight broke through clouds at the zenith, sending them llyiug all ways, and revealing a sky as' blue as turquoise. It illumined a plain that had seemed afloat during the rain, and now showed in evidence of dampness only a transient pool here and there, and a tinge of emerald, diamond studded, in the usual pale green grama grass. In every hol low a stream was running, which would disappear by the next morning.

'The river will lie too high to ford before said Tompkins. 'Shall we go on and camp on its bank or eo back to 'We decided to go to Penasco, where there was a hotel, and turning round took the back trail. The Mexican shepherd who had warned us of the shower was moving about with his dog, and we could see as we approached that some of the sheep were feeding, while others remained still on the spot where they had huddled at the begin ning of the storm. nen quite near we saw why these sheep were not feed ing. They lay upon the ground, fully two hundred in number, killed by hail.

Of the sheep that had gone to feeding. many were bleeding at the nose, and their swollen eyes bore signs of the cruel battering they had sustained. The Mexican had sheltered himself and his doer under the enveloping folds of his heavy woolen serape. He lookeq rather sad over the lamentable condi tion of his flock, but seemed to regard the occurrence as a vicissitude in his business that might occur at any time and was to be accepted with resigna tion. At the worst it was not his loss.

but his master's. "At Penasco the next morning we talked with the overseer of the ranch -to which the flock we had seen be longed, lie had come into town to engage help to skin the sheep killed in the storm among his flocks, and he said that five hundred sheep had been killed the day before by hail on this ranch alone."

G. Dun Weeklv Review of Trade says: Progress toward better business continues, but it is slow and meets many obstacles. In speculative aspects and wholesale demand for goods, the week shows improvement. Money markets are undisturbed and a little more active. But among the chief obstacles is the anxiety of operatives to secure better wages, even while many manufacturing works are running without profit and others at the risk of loss.

In a number of establishments better wages have been conceded, thus increasing the purchasing power of the people, but strikes have largely overbalanced settlements, sev eral of importance having thrown about 12,000 workers out of employment this week. Retail trade has improved the whole since March, as the ap proach of Easter brings more business, but distribution to individual consumers still lags behind purchasers of job bers ana such demand for products as springs from building and other in vestments looking into the future. Crop prospects will greatly affect the course of trade for some months and the government report had little influ ence to discourage, lor consumers the worst feature is the rapid advance meats. For the first time in a long period, prices of commodities average a shade higher than a year ago and in Great Britain also, owing to different causes, slight advance occurred in March. On both sides of the ocean the lowest level ever known may naturally be followed by some rise.

Cotton on both sides is more buoyant than anything else except meat and petroleum here, crude oil having risen to SI. 80, the highest price for over seventeen years. Nothing supports the advance of an eighth in cotton the past week except the impression that the next crop will be short, for receipts are large and about 150,000 bales more than the largest crop ever grown, have already come into sight this year. Wheat has yielded nearly a cent, although Atlantic exports for two weeks have been 3,700,643 bushels, flour included, against 3,509,088 last year, with western receipts only 0,088,407, against 4,223,434 last year. Receipts of corn are aboutf half and exports about a fifth of last year's.

Decrease in receipts of cattle are having arrived at Chicago, against 789,543 to date last year, and the prevalent opin ion is that the western packers are helping nature to some extent. Sales of wool are particularly inter esting, amounting for the week to 0,030,200 pounds, and for five weeks previous to 25,621,200 against 25,277,376 in the same weeks of 1892. In brief sales are close to the quantity required for a full consummation and the long delay in placing orders and the lateness of the season makes the proportion of mills at work larger than usuaL No improvement in nrices appears, and domestic wool does not respond to recent ad vances in foreign markets. The low orice encourages manufacturers to compete much more vigorously with the foreign goods of many kinds than they had expected, and for the medium and cheaper grades of goods they have more than the usual demand, because purchases of consumers have for two years been comparatively small. The better poods fare not so well, foreign competition oeinj more effective, but there is a good de mand for dress goods.

In cottons con tinued strength appears, with further occasional advances of cent and cent in print cloths and the aggregate is fair. Many agents are sold well ahead. Failures for the week were 207 in the United States against 218 last year and 27 in Canada, against 14 last year. CHINA-JAPAN WAR. The Latest Advices Indicate That Sweet Peace Is Hovering Over the Two Coun tries.

Washington, April 13. Official ad vices received at the Japanese legation yesterday from .1 apart indicate that an under standi utr has been i-eached be tween the Japanese and Chinese pleni potentiaries and that the news of the definite conclusion of peace may be expected at any time. The exact terms of the peace cannot as yet be ascertained, but it is under stood that in response to the repeated requests of the Chinese plenipotentia ries for an abatement of the demands originally made by them, the Japanese oleniroteritiaries have granted some concessions. Brief as the foregoing message is, it marks the close of the Japan-China war, barring the possibility, of course, of some unexpected hitch at the last moment. The announcement of the exact terms of peace is yet to come, but from what is known of the negotiations thus far the general nature of the peace is evident.
