THURSDAY. JULY 2, 1896.
—The Week's Commercial Summary.
The stocks of wheat at Port Arthur
and Fort William are 1,54.873 bushels
as compared with 260,597 bushels a year
ago
There is a little snore activity in Ameri-
can stocks, with a general improvement
in sentiment owing to the gold °platform
of the St. Louis convention.
The wheat markets of Qatario are very
dull, withprices the lowest ofthe sea-
son. The stock of wheat at Toronto is
98,858 bushels as against 26,707 bushels
a year ago.
The visible supply of wheat in the
United States and Canada. is 49, 486, 000
bushels, a decrease of only 661,000 bush-
els for the week. A year ago the total
was 47,717,000 bushels. Wheat on pas-
sage to Europe 80,720,000 bushels, the
same as last week, as against 45,200,000
bushels a year ago.
A despatch from Winnipeg says: The
first official crop bulletin for this year
was issued by the provincial Govern-
ment Ian the 17th. Summarized it shows
the acreage to be as follows: Wheat,
1,081,960 acres; oats, 442,445 ; barley,127,-
885: flax, 20,325; rye, 3,130; peas,
1,103; corn, 760; potatoes, 12,260;,
roots, 6,715; making the total area un-
der all orops 1,690.588 aures—a decrease
of 191,213 acres compared with last
year. This is due to the very late opening
of the season, Not in 15 years has there
been such a wet season for seeding. The
area under crop is less than last year, but
exceeds 180.4 by 100,000 acres. The wet
weather, though retarding the season, is
declared to be of great benefit to the
province as a whole, and almost assures a
bountiful harvest.
The purity of silk and woolen mater-
ials is best tested by burning the threads.
All animal products, such as silk and
wool, burn slowly and leave a sort of
charcoal head, which emits an odor like
burnt feathers. Vegetable products, such
as cotton and linen, burn readily, leave
no residuum and have no smell. Jute
smolders and leaves a light, feathery
head. A way to test linen, by means of
which the introduction of cotton among
the linen threads may be detected, is to
cut off a small piece of the material, un-
ravel the threads and then to examine
them under a strong tnagnifying glass.
The characteristics of flax threads are
very marked.. They are in the form of
cylindrical stalks, divided at intervals
by knots in the same way as bamboo or
sugar cane stalks. Cotton threads are
long and flattened Iike ribbon—waved,
twisted in spirals and granulated on the
surface.

dustrious artisan; gone to supply the
craving of the victim of the drink dis-
ease. This dread disease is Do respecter

DEADLY HEART DISEASE.
CURED BY DR AGNEW'S GREAT
HEART REMEDY—MANY
LIVES SAVED.
The Secret of Success of Dr. Agnew's Oat-
arrital Powder.
Were it not that Dr. Agnew's Cure for
the Heart will give relief within thirty
minutes after the first dose has been
taken we would not read of so many
lives being saved by this remedy. Will-
iam Cherry, of Owen Sound, Ont. says—
"I was greatly troubled with weakness
of the heart and fainting spells for two
years, and ofttimes was unfitted for
my weak. Naturally much anxiety
was felt by myself and friends, for no
treatmec.t seeemd to do me any good. I
was influenced, however, to try Dr. Ag-
new's Cure for the Heart, and found it
as proclaimed --a 'speedy' cure. I have
now taken five bottles, and it has brought
back to my heart the proper action, and
made me strong and well."
Catarrh—One secret of success in Dr.
Agnew's Catarrhal Powder is that it is
easy and pleasant to use. As Mr. W. H.
Bennett, Conservative member in the
last House of Commons, said, "taken in
the morning it clears the head of any.
cold or catarrhal trouble that is mani-
fest." But it not alone deals ' with the
minor cases of catarrh, but even where
deafness and some of the worst forms of
disease have become manifest these have
been eradicated by the remedy. To the
names of Mr. George E. Casey, Hon.
David Mills, Hugo H. Ross might be
added scorns of other members of the
late Parliament, who, over their own
signatures, have borne testimony to the
value of the remedy.
WHAT A SOLDIER FEARED.
How Liquor Was Vanquished by a Captain
Who Was a Teetotaler.
"About daylight the day before the
second battle of Manassas," said a Con-
federate officer at a recent re -union of
the blue and the gray, "I was ordered
to report to Gen. T. J. Jackson,, with a
detail of 100 men for special orders. I
went at once to headquarters, and pre-
sented the orders I had received. Gen
Jackson came out, and, beckoning me
to follow him, rode some 50 yards from
his stall and then turned and halted.
" 'Captain, do you use liquor?' he
asked.
"'Nor sir,' I replied.
"A smile lit up his rugged face as he
said; 'I sent for a special detail of 100
men under command of an officer who
never used spirituous liquors. Are you
that man?'
"'Yes, sir;' I said. 'I was detailed on
that account.'
"'Well, then, I have an order to give,
upon the execution of which depends the
success of the present movement and the
result of the battle soon to be fought,'
" `If to keep sober is all that is needed,
general, you may depend upon me,' I
said.
"No,' he answered, 'that is not all;
but unless you can resist temptation to
drink, you cannot carry out my orders.
Do you see that warehouse over there?'
pointing to a largo buidling a. little way
off. 'Take your command up to that
depot, have the barrels of bread rolled
out and sent down to the railroad amok,
so that my men can get it as they pass,
and then take your pinked men into the
building and spill all the liquor there;
don't spare a drop, nor let any man
taste it under any circumstances. This
order I expect you to execute at any
cost.'
"Be turned and was about to ride
back to his staff, when I called hastily:—
" 'One
astily:"'One moment, general! Suppose an
officer of superior rank should order me
under arrest, and then gain possession
of the warehouse?
'."Coming up close to me, and looking
me through and though, as it seemed to
me, he said, with a look of solemnity
that I never shall forget:—
" 'Until
orget:"'Until I relieve you in person, you
are exempt from arrest except upon my
written order. I fear that liquor more
than Pope's army,' he added, as he rode
rapidly away.
"I took my men down to the ware-
house which had become so important,
and threw a guard around it, placing
five men at each entrance, with orders
neither to allow any one to enter, nor
to enter themselves. •
"The next thing was to roll out the
bread, which we did. Just as we were
finishing that task, I was called to one
of the entrances to find a general officer
with his staff demanding that the guards
should either allow him to enter, or
bring out some liquor. Of course, I re-
fused to comply with the command,
upon which he ordered his adjutant to
place me under arrest.
"I told him I was there by Gen.
Jackson's personal order, and was espe-
cially exempt from arrest. He ordered
his staff to dismount and enter the ware-
house, and I gave my men the order to
level their guns and make ready.
"This made the general halt, in spite
of his thirst, and hold a consultation
with his officers. They concluded to try
persuasion, since they could not -get what
they wanted by force. But they found
that method of no more avail than the
other. Then they demanded to know my
name and what command I belonged to,
and threatened to report me for disobedi-
ence.
"I should never have yielded, and,
whether they would have pushed things
to an extremity, in their raging desire
for the liquor, I do not know; but just
at that moment, Gen. A. P. Hill came
gailoping up with his staff, and natur-
ally wanted to know what was the trou-
ble. I explained the situation, which the
quick-witted general took in at once,
and ordered the thirsty squad off.
"`Have you orders to burn the build-
ing?' he asked.
"'No,' I answered, `I.have not'.
"Without a word he rode away, and
within an hour there Dame au order from
Gen. Jackson to fire the warehouse, and
when it was Well destroyed to report to
him.
c
"I carried out the order to the letter;
not a man got a drink that day, and for
that time the foe that Stonewall Jackson
,most dreaded was vanquished."—Youth's
