ORAIN AND PHOYISIONS.
Ck’.cago, July 7.—Kveu leas than the
usual pretense of trading for Saturday
was apparent In wheat today. Tho crowd
waa anxious In their Inquiries as to the
coulltlon of affairs at the scenes of the
labor troubles and neglected the grain
mark via almost entirely. There was the
n g >.lar scalping trade which Is always
ret n. even during the dullest time, but
nothing was done by-the more Important
mt<-rctls. The opening was weak, but
l.tstel only u few minutes, being sue-
,, v |. i by a more steady feeling and a
finning up near the dose. September
wheat opened at 17% wW bet ween S«%a
•>8% closing &S^ia% a net gain of % for
the day. Cash wheat was quiet.
The trade In com had nothing worthy
of mention In Its make-up to distinguish
it from that of any other Saturday, un
less* possibly, a little leas of It. The
changes In today and the trend of prices
were In strict accord with the pose of
wheat. September com opened at 4<rt4.
advanced to and closed at 41*%. a gain
over yesterday of % of a cent. Caah com
was quiet.
Oats were quiet, opening easy and later
imbibing some strength from wheat and
corn. The local element did most of the
trading at a good demand from the short
side. September oats closed *4a% higher
than yesterday. Cash oats were easier.
Provisions—There was no hog market
at the yards, hence trading In products
waa unimportant. Prices ruled easy, gen
erally speaking, although ribs presented
some firmness at the clone. The strike Is
of paraonunt importance to the trade,
and pending some settlement of the mud
dle there Is little probability of much
business. Tha close was 7% lower for
September pork, unchanged for Septem
ber lard and 2ft higher for September
ribs. There was no trade In cap provis
ions, although there waa some demand.
CASH QUOTATIONS.
Nothing doing In flour, no change In
quotations. Spots were steadier.

The Swedish Star Boy. f
You have heard of tho star boy? May
be not, for he liveB in 8weden, which is
* long way off, and as our story booka do
not tell abont hihi it might easily hap
pen that you would know nothing of a
mysterious little fellow who is a part of
the nurnery tales of every boy and girl
in Sweden.
Tho duty of the ctir boy is to hang out
the stare in tlio heavens, and when he
does bo it is a signal to the ruindrops,
tli.' snow and t!i<- hall that tiny aro to
stay away, until the star boy has taken
tho Btars in ngnin. When tlio star boy
thinks thero'has been enough bad weath
er, ho goes out with his arms fall of stars
nml hangs them up as signals. He does
his work very prettily, and very beauti
ful figures are formed in the heavens by
tho arrangement of tho stars.
Tho children of Sweden often salute
tho star boy when they see the stars be
ginning to appear in the dark sky above,
and they call out, looking upward to tho
stars:
"Please, good star boy, be kind enough
to hang out many stars so that wo may
go forth to play tomorrow! We bavo
had rain enough! Hong out tho stars,
wo pray thee, that wo may enjoy the
sunshine once morel"
After thus addressing tlio star boy
the little Swedes are taught to believo
by tho nursery stories that it will always
bo pleasant next day if the star boy lis
