MARKETS
GRAIN PRICES CHICAGO, April 20. Selling pressure In grain again indifferent. Markets strong on rain reports, suggesting liberal oats acreage will be cut and too late to sow for best results. Winter wheat news from the central west is somewhat poor. Another report says Argentine is afrard of selling her wheat surplus. Wheat New York jbasis is $3.05. Cash corn and oats lower but the market follows the wet weather and a chance of poor oats start. June first oats start may not exceed 1,220 to 1,280 million whereas for a big crop the start should equal 1,400 to 1,450 million. Oats belt reports very wet and further delay. The oats report contains more mention of rotting in sections. On the news the problem is to provide liberal selling moves. Only 6mall dips are indicated. CHICAGO GRAIN RANGE Furnished by E. W.

"Every season of the year is an open season for the critics of The Associated Press" said Mr. Noyes beginning his address to his associate officers and directors. Accustomed to Kicks.

What's in a Name (Copyright)
EMMELINE Emmeline is another of the feminine names produced from the root Amal, of which Amelia has been already discussed. But Emmeline, which has often been erroneously confused as a derivative of Emma, has an interesting history. The name, which is translated to mean "work serpent", has no connection other than by similarity of letters, with Emma, which means "grandmother". Emmeline came into existence thru the Queens of Navarre and the Asturias. The Bister of Sancho L of Navarre, who married Alphonse the Great, was called Amelina. But the ladies of Navarre were not content with a single name they must have equivalents. So Amelina was also Simena and Ximena. Ximena survived the longest of any of her other names and came to bo popular in all classes. The wife of the Cid was bo called but the French turned her into Chimene. The English promptly called this strange name Emmeline and even France now has an Emeline. The form Emylyn, which appears in old ballad poetry is identical with Emmeline. The latter name is a bit long for Americans and though it is properly given in Baptism, it unfortunately too quickly degenerates into the handy "Emmy" which is no name at all. Jasper is Emmeline's talismanic gem. This brilliant green stone will drive away evil spirits and prevent the bites of venomous creatures, par ticularly of snakes. A prayer for rain will be answered if the one who prays wears jasper. Tuesday is Emmeline's lucky day and 5 her lucky number. CLARICE While Clarice has its origin in the same root as Clare or Clara, its evo lution progressed in a far different manner. The Latin adjective Clarus, meaning bright or famous, is of course responsible for both names, but where Clare followed the English and French Clarice is the product of Italy. The old Latin feminine of words ending in "or" to signify the doer, was "ix;" in modern Italian this be come "ice." Clarice, therefore, was the feminine name so evolved and meant "to make famous." It proved popular throughout Italy, its famous bearer probably being the wife of Lorenzo de Medici. Though France already had a Claire she adopted Clarice, giving a soft "ss" sound to the "c." This explains the Clarissa which sprang up in England and was given extraordinary vogue by Richardson in his novel where he made Clarissa his heroine. The popularity of this book in France brought forth Clarisse. It is not the first instance of when one language adopts the change made upon one of its own words by another tongue. Clarinda and Clairmond are two other fanciful interpretations of the original Clarice. The diamond Is Clarice's talismanic gem. Its potency is best expressed in the old rhyme: "The evil eye shall have no power to harm Her that shall wear the diamond as a charm; No monarch shall attempt to thwart her will And e'en the gods her wishes shall fulfill." Friday is Clarice's lucky day and 1 her lucky number. FLORA Flora is as springtime a name as any maid could wish. It means flowers, of course, and commemorates the goddess of flowers, who was so called from the Latin name of spring blooms, "flos." Flora came into use through her masculine counterpart, curious to relate. From the goddess was evolved Florus, chiefly memorable as the name of the procurator whose merciless rule drove the Jews to their last rebellion, and Flora was subsequently derived as the feminine of the former name. The first Flora was found in Spain. She was the daughter of Count Julian who was much disliked and is recorded in Spanish ballads as "la Cava," the wicked. The martyrdom of a Spanish maiden called Flora by the Moors in 851 redeemed the reputation of Flora as a feminine name and its use became widespread in Spain; whence it penetrated France as Florie. Scotland, which has an extraordinary fondness for flower names, adopted it, and soon it was brought to England, where it still enjoys the greatest and most widespread vogue. The emerald, symbol of springtime, is Flora's talismanic gem. It promises its wearer keen intelligence, gentle charm and prophetic vision. With an emerald in her hand, she is said to have such perfect psychic power, as to be able to foreshadow future events. Wednesday is her lucky day and 3 her lucky number. The hawthorne, England's loveliest spring symbol, is her flower. BELIEVES HE IS ENTITLED TO A DECREE OF DIVORCE (By Associated Press) EDWARDS VILLE, 111., April 20. Having traveled the distance of the earth's circumference twice in a vain effort to persuade his wife to live with him, Gerge Pastor has filed suit for divorce, alleging desertion. He asserts he left Hungary shortly after his marriage 25 years ago and came to America. After obtaining employment he wrote his wife to come here, but she refused. Since then, he says, he has made five round trips to Hungary, involving approximately 50,000 miles of travel, in fruitless attempts to get her to return with him.

GOAL MEN TRY TO GET WHAT TRAFFIC WILL BEAR, CHARGE NEW YORK, April 20. The bituminous coal market, less than two weeks out of federal control, is trying to find a new level, somewhat higher than that which has been obtaining, owing to increased costs. Certain interests in the trade are reported to be favoring maximum prices "all the traffic will bear " but more conservative producers are advocating only a nominal increase, such as will be required to meet additional production costs and compensate in a measure for redlstricted profits if not actual losses encoun tered in past months. Trade interests seem of the opinion that the coal market will settle on a conservative basis. Increased consumption, restricted output and low stocks are operating, however, to boost coal prices. Where a year ago there were approximately 2,500,000 tons of coal at upper Great Lake ports, present supplies are virtually negligible. Decline Further Orders Dealers there are declining further orders against their stocks. Owing to reduced supplies of coal both at the lake ports and at points of ultimate consumption, a record movement approximating 30,000,000 tons will be required this year to take care of the situation. With the reduced car supply, whether it will be possible to achieve this is uncertain. There seems to be no question but that the mines will be able to turn out all the tonnage required if cars are supplied, as their capacity above requirements of the country is estimated at 40 per cent. Production of bituminous coal the" current year to Anril 3 was 140.603.000 tons againsV 111,186,000 tons the corresponding 1919 period. In anthracite, output in 1920 was 21,565,000 against 18,571,000 tons, in the corre sponding 1919 period. Although ouput thus far this year in both bituminous and anthracite has been heavier than it was in 1919 in the corresponding period, consumption is believed to have increased even more, so that stocks are low.

It was due to Obregon's victory over Villa that the revolutionary movement resulted in the' present government, with First Chief Carranza as president. When Pancho Villa broke with Carranza in the autumn of 1914, General Obregon, with 40,000 men, made his famous march diagonally across the republic from Sonora to the City of Mexico. There was little doubt then that he had ambitions to oust his chief, Carranza. However, in the kaleidoscopic changes of Mexican politics, Carranza and Obregon became reconciled, or seemingly so, and so remained, on the surface, until last June. Obregon Is well known In the United States and has visited this country often. He resigned as minister of war in Carranza's cabinet on May 1, 1917, and came to the United States on "pleasure and private business." In announcing his candidacy for the presidency last June, h6 said: "I am, and will be, a faithful friend of those who with blood and brawn answered the call of the country against Huerta (who murdered Madera) But I will be the enemy of I those who pretend that their service I must be paid for with the same liber ties which Huerta usurped and which we swore to return to the country." That angered Carranza. Obregon was living on his farm in Sonora. The Carranza government suddenly became anxious to make certain there would be a fair presidential election in Sonora and announced its intention to send troops there. Governor de la Huerta strongly intimated that the presence of government troops would fncite the Yaquis to an uprising. The Carranza government retorted that the troops would go to Sonora and I summoned de la Huerta to Mexico I City. De la Huerta did not go but de clared that Carranza sought to set up military rule in Sonora. Grandma Is Bossing Percy PERCY, 111., April 20. After a month under the regime of Marshal "Grandma" Maxwell, citizens of Percy say they are convinced thoroughly that the feminist movement, in many respects, is absolutely flawless. Not a single arrest has been made here since "Grandma", or as she signs it, Mrs. Jane Maxwell, observed her sixty-second birthday by taking over the duties of law enforcement. "Grandma's" smile, has proved more efficacious than the armament of her predecessors. BIG PIER SAVED FROM FIRE NEW YORK, April 20.
