She was of medium height with bright brown eyes and a sweet face. The-e with a fine form and charming man- ner made her much Bought after by the young men of North Haven. She chose to bestow her sweetest smiles on Julius But- ton, a whole-souled, hardy young sailer, and all those who had sought Sofia's hand felt a pang of envy when Julias led her to the altar. The young couple settled down to the humdnm life of the small village in which both had been born and reared. For a time they were as happy as ever two young peoplo who seemed made for each other could be. Julius had accumulated a snug sum of money and was disposed to take life easily. The apple of his eye was his wife. Next in his affections was his violin, and with those two for company he was content to spend his evenings at home. Although her husband played very well Sofia cared nothing for music and detested a violin above all things. For a while sho said nothing. Then she would leave Julius and his violin and would run over to one of the neighbors to spend the evening. It dawned upon Julius that the strains he drew from his violin were no', appreciated by bis wife. Then Sofia began to show that beneath a sweet exterior there lay smold- ering a fiery temper that when once let !oo«e was simply uncovernable, and violent outbursts on her part became more and more frequent. Julius bore it all uncomplainingly, for he loved his wife dearly. His was a gentle na- ture that never held malice, and he knew Sofia loved him, so he was patient. But all things must end some time, and his patience was no exception to tha rule. One afternoon Julius went horns and picked up his violin. He had drawn the bow but a few times before Sofia exclaimed: "I wish you would stop that noise." Julius paid no heed to the request which bad been made in such a mandatory tone. Sofia became angrier as her husband con- tinued playing and at lastshouted : "Julius 1 want you to stop that noise." But Julius only smiled and kept on playing. Sofia grew livid with rage, and seizing a pan of water threw itinto Julius face. Then her husband put away his vlolla and left the house. In the evening he came and began packing up his clothing. Sofia had recovered from her paroxysm of anger and was willing to be forgiven, but did not ask it. Her woman's curiosity could not be restrained, however, and she tremblingly asked what it all meant. The only reply her husband vouchsafed was that he bad shipped on a vessel bound for Vir- ginia after a load of oysters. Days and weeks and months passed, and the absent •husband was not heard from, and Sofia went to live with her husband's parent 4. One day thirty-five years later the elder Button read of the arrival in New York of the United Stites brig Baiubridge, Captain Julius Button. He said nothing of the great hope that bad sprung up in his breast but hastened to New York, only to find that tie brig cad sailed a few hours before. But his journey was not altogether fruitless lor he learned that the captain of the Bain- bridge was his own son. It lifted a heavy load frcm the old man's heart, although he felt keenly his disappointment at not seeing his son, who had for many years been mourned ns dead. Sadly the old man re- turned to his home in North Haven. From that time he became a close reader of the newspapers and at last, four years later, his vigilance was rewarded. He read: "The United States brig Bainbridge, Captain Button, is expeected to arrive at the Brooklyn Navy Yard to-morrow." Once more the old man journeyed to the metropolis. He found the brig with diffi- culty and was ushered into the cabin to await the captain, who was on shore. Captain Button looked curiously at the Cray-haired old man whom he bad been told wished to see him, but did not recognize biiu. Nor did the father recognize his son. Slowly the old man told his errand. "Iam Captain Button, sir," responded the captain. "Don't you know me, Julius ? lam your father." It was a very affecting meeting, and when It was brought to a close the father asked tremulously, "Julius, what shall I tell mother?" Captain Button hesitated fora moment; then, without replying to the question, lie asked, "Where is Sofia?" "She still lives with us." "Then you may tell mother that 1 may come to North Haven when I come back from my next voyage." An hour later Button Sr. was on his way home, and Button Jr. was on a voyage to China. When he returned two years later he learned that his father and mother were dead. Sofia still occupies the old home- stead, but Captain Button has never seen her since they parted.— N. Y. Herald.

George Crouch, whuse name was often In the newspapers at the time of the death of Jdcllenry, tne Erie magnate, a month or two ago in London, and who is known as one of the few men who ever worsted Jay Gonld, Is said to be once more making his influence lolt, says John A. Cockerill in the Cincinnati Enquirer. Ue had an amusing experience at the Racquet Club. In the old days when his bank aocount was larce and his club biils In proportion there was no more daring hunter of big game In the Kockies than Crouch. Just at this time of y*ar, when the market is dull, he would co off Into North Park, Colo., and tbe v'rgin bunting region thereabouts for weeks at h timr.

As an unusually fine specimen, he haj it mounted aud pre- sented to the Racquet Club, of which he was then ono r>f Hie leading members. 11* had never seen the Racquet Club's new and magnificent quarters on Forty-third street until on the rtceut occasion referred to, when a new member, who had oniy a vague idea of who Crouch was any way, after showing Dim over tho club-house, said: 'By the way. If you care anything about big game, we've got the fioest hfi.ul of elk antlers upstairs you ever saw !" Crouch said he did caro something about big game so they went upstairs. Tuere were tha old iamilinr antlers branching out in that un- \u25a0 pproadinblc beauty which sends a thrill through the sportsman's nerves. "I understand," said his cicerone, "that It cost the fellow who gave us those antlers a very pretty figure just to have them mounted." "Yes," answered Crouch, dryly, "I know Just what they cost him— 5701,000. I'm the lellow. VERY MUCH MARRIED. Angnst Leiiti Tries to Introduce the Patriarchal System.

Arrival of the Alameda— The Charleston Gone to Mare Island-Catch of the Whalers. . Arrivals and Departures. Few are aware that away off fn the Pacific Ocean is an island on which flies the stars and stripes, and which is ab- solutely owned by an American, yet such is the case. The littlespot, which is marked on the charts as no larger than the point of a pin in latitude 24° north, longitude 154° east, and known as Marcus Island, is owned by a citizen of the United States. Captain A. Kosehill is the possessor of this not very extensive domain, which is only three miles long by almost two miles wide, nnd at its highest point is not more than sixty feet above the waters of the vast ocean that sur- rounds It At the present time the little island cannot boast of an inhabitant, but in a short time several dozen souls will take up their residence on it. Tho island is covered from end to end with a vast deposit of guano of unknown depth, and Captain Kosehill, who is now in this city, is making preparations to work the deposit. Samples of the guano show it to be of the highest commercial value, and it is expected to prove a bonanza to its owner. Captain Kosehill is in possession of letters from the Hon. James G. Blame, confirming him in possession of the far-off spot. BKTfIIX OF INDIAX BRAVES.

The little schooner Ellen, recently seized by the Federal authorities for violating the law in trading with a foreign country, has been released after paying a lino of SIOO and a sum equal to one-fifth the value of her cargo. The schooner recently arrived here from San Domingo, with a cargo consisting of nine tons of copper ore, and is now lying at Section 4 of the sea-wall discharging. The ore consists of samples from sumo newly discovered mine?, and is put up in sacks and will be shipped to Swansea in England lor the inspection of a syndicate of mining men, who may purchase tho prop- erty. It is said that the ore carries enough gold to pay tor working, leaving the copper, of which it carries a large percentage, clear profit.

A dispatch from London ' states that the British ship Theophane, bound from Port Fine to Newcastle, N. S. W., where sho was to load for this port, is ashore near Port I'irie in a very dangerous position on a rocky bottom. The The&phane is an iron ship of 1587 tons register, 218 feet 4 inches lonic 88 feet 9 inches wide and 23 feet 7 inches deep. She was built at Liverpool in 180S, and was owned by the Australasian Shipping Company. The big wrecking schooner Samson will leave for Port Harford to-day, in tow of the Whitelaw, to be employed in constructing the breakwater at that place. Captain Whitelaw has the contract for tha work, and has the schooner Catalina down there now. The United States cruiser Charleston tripped her anchor soon after 1 o'clock yes- terday afternoon, and went up to the Mare Island Navy-yard. ARRIVALS AMI DEPARTURES.

At a meeting of the State Board of Harbor Commissioners yesterday afternoon, an opinion was read and filed from the board's attorney, Frank S. Stratton, on the demand of J. M. Wood, as assignee, for money due F. J. and J. V. Owens. The opinion is that the board should pay direct to the parties entitled thereto or their assignee. There was a clause in the stipulation that the contract in question be- tween the board and the Owens Bros, was non-assignable, but Attorney Stratton says this does not include the assignment of moneys due thereunder. In this opinion Attorney-General Hart has concurred. The fuuds in question amount to $1933 70 due under the contract, $2230 forfeiture to the Stale, which leaves Owens Bros, owing tho State 5316 SO, so that Assignee Wood will not have to handle much money, now that the knotty question of law is at last settled. The Harbor Improvement Fund was drawn on for $11,127 82, NORTH BEND BEARS. They Giro Hunter* Lively Sport Near a Northern Logging Camp. Mr. A.H. Jose of North Bend, a member of the well-known logging firm, Jose & Son, is at the Snoqualmie Hotel. He reports that his brother-in-law, Charles Henry, who had two ribs broken by a falling tree a few days ago, Is doing well. The same day as the accident the logging camp was startled by the appearance of some bears. "You see, these bears follow us pretty closely to lick the tallow off the skid roads." he said last night. "Several had been hanging around, and on that day our cook, Stewart, thought he would go bear- hunting. So he got out the doRS, and they soon struck the trail of an old she bear with two cubs. The young ones went up a tree, but she stood on the ground ready to 6i;ut. Stewart concluded that ho had better not tackle her alone, and so he got a young fel- low named Harding to help him. They had a Run and a revolver. When they got pretty close Stewart began snapping th revolver. Then the old bear, irritated by this, went for him. As she reached him he decided that discretion was the better part of valor, and he and Harding fled for their lives to the camp. "The next day my brother and I started out to km those bears \u25a0 The does soon loun<l them, and again treed the cubs. My brother came upon them first. He said he heard a scratching and growling, and then the next thing he knew, he had climbed to the top of a cedar slump. The old bear was as game as the day before and showed fiphf, bnt he ainiea carefally and niKdo a lino shot— the first lie Lad met taken at a be.-r. She fell over with a ciy of pain, and tlie cubs dropped from the tree as quick as a flash and ran to licr. I had reached the spot by that time, and I saw them bite and shake lier in order to rouse her. But slie lived ODly a few minutes. "We wanted to take tho cubs alivp, but they were too big and fought too fiercely They were altogelher too nmeli for tlie dogs. Finally I shot them both. "The mother had a huze frame, bnt she was thin and rather worn."— Seattle Post- lntelligeucpr THE STOCK MARKET.

The Cxar Nicholas of Russia Demands the Soul of a Kcbber. The Czar Nicholas of Russia, according to Mr. Sal,!, was ve:y fond of attending the masked balls at the Grand Theater of St. Petersburg In a Mephistopheliaa disguise, says the Baltimore Sun. One night, or rather morning, when the ball was over, the Emperor, with a heavy fur pelisse over his demoniac attire, hailed a hack and bade the coachman to drive him to the residence of one of nis adjutants, merely telling him street and number; for tlipre he wanted to change his clothes. The driver happened to be a professional robber, and he drove his august passenger dowu several dark streets and onto the frozen Nava, where he intended to slay him, plunder the body and throw tlie corpss into one of the holes cut into tiie ice covering the river. So, suddenly standing up in tho .sledge, and brandiahinif, an ax, ho cried out to his intended victim: "I demand thy life!" But the Czar Nicho- las stood up likewise— he was almost a giant in stature— ana in a stentorian tone replied: "I demand thy soul !" When the would-be assassin saw the moonbeams gleaming on what he thought to be the very devil him- self—horns, hoofs, tail and all—he uttered one appalling yell, fell backward amt pres- ently gtive up the ghost. A post-mortem ex- amination showed that he was far gune with disease of the heart HOTEL ARRIVALS. BALDWIN 110 TEL. J ITPolk, Los Angeles \V D McArthur, Sn Diego G Smith, Los Ancnles I) M stauton.

A Mean FelloTP Who Sprinkled Feppor on the Floor at a Dance. A practical joke playpd in the Casino of the Union County Club at Plainfield is likely to prove a serious matter to the per- petrator if be is caught, says a New York special to the St. Louis Globe-Democrat The trick was played upon the occasion of the second "summer hop" of this season. The Casino has been prettily decorated, and well-known society people from Xew York and Brooklyn were the guests of tlie promi- nent PlainSeld residents. Tlie scene was one of niu.-h guyety when the opening dance was begun, but it soon changed. Some ono bad sprinkled cayenne pepper over the waxßd surface of tbe ball-room floor, and the result was felt as soon as the dancing was well under way. The tripping feet aud the swaying of skirts raised a cloud of dust that was intolerable iv tbe heated and crowded ball-room. The puugent odor of the red pepper penetrated every nook and corner, fill'm;; tlie eye-, throat and nostrils of those present until the coughing aud siiPfzine became so general that a hasty ad- journment was taken to another apartment. A corps of potters with brushes and damp sawdust finally cleared the. b:ill-room of the pepper and th« ilanwug was resumed. ItH said that the officers of the County Club will make Mreuuous efforts to have tlie offender punished. EEAL ESTATE TRANSACTION'S. Pierre A.P.

New York, Aug. 6.—The stock market to-day was dull but active, displaying a firm tone through- out a greater part or the day. There was a rush to sell Union Pacific at the opening, and large blocks changed hands, the first price being 37%, from which Itdeclined to 36%, but received consider- able support around 37 for a time. When this was withdrawn the stock fell away to 35%. In the meantime the rest or the market, or which Bur- lington and St. laul were the principal part, showed a strong tone and advanced fractionally. In the last hour Union Pacific nearly recovered the day's loss, and St. Paul, Burlington, Rock Island and others were especially prominent Inan upward movement. The market finally closed active and strong at the top figures, the final changes showing small fractional gains In most of the stccks. Sugar Is up 2s' s .

Indeed, be any doubt that the Wheat crop, except In sonic parts of the smith, or Russia, will be considerably below an average, aid that the Rye crop, the principal Top In Russia, willbe very deficient, a reliable author- ity in l;us->ia estimates the Wheat crop as 10 to 15 per cent below an average or 3U, 000.000 quarters, and the Bye crop at 25 per cent below a full aver- age of say W.0J0.000 quarters. If this be the case— ah 1 it will be well uot to trust too Implicitly to these early estimates— Russia will not be able to spare more than 7,000.000 to 8.000.000 quarters of Wheat next season and very litteBye. The serious question, infact, is the great (tendency In the latter crop, a deficiency which there ca:i be littledoubt has led to the recent reports of ' famine ami starva- tion ' in the central parts or Russia; and that there is some foundation for .these reports Is apparent when It Is louad that Rye U just now dearer than the commoner sorts of Wheat In Russia, and within onto 4s per quarter of the value of Wheat at both Berlin and Amsterdam.

PARTED BY HIS VIOLIN.No one would have suspected that Sofia

was a shrew. She was of medium heightwith bright brown eyes and a sweet face.The-e with a fine form and charming man-ner made her much Bought after by theyoung men of North Haven. She chose tobestow her sweetest smiles on Julius But-ton, a whole-souled, hardy young sailer, andall those who had sought Sofia's hand felt apang of envy when Julias led her to thealtar.

The young couple settled down to thehumdnm life of the small village in whichboth had been born and reared. For a timethey were as happy as ever two youngpeoplo who seemed made for each othercould be.

Julius had accumulated a snug sum ofmoney and was disposed to take life easily.The apple of his eye was his wife. Next inhis affections was his violin,and with thosetwo for company he was content to spendhis evenings at home.

Although her husband played very wellSofia cared nothing for music and detesteda violin above all things. For a while shosaid nothing. Then she would leave Juliusand his violin and would run over to one ofthe neighbors to spend the evening. Itdawned upon Julius that the strains hedrew from his violin were no', appreciatedby bis wife. Then Sofia began to show thatbeneath a sweet exterior there lay smold-ering a fiery temper that when once let!oo«e was simply uncovernable, and violentoutbursts on her part became more andmore frequent.

Julius bore itall uncomplainingly, for heloved his wife dearly. His was a gentle na-ture that never held malice, and he knewSofia loved him, so he was patient. But allthings must end some time, and his patiencewas no exception to tha rule.

One afternoon Julius went horns andpicked up his violin. He had drawn the bowbut a few times before Sofia exclaimed: "Iwish you would stop that noise."

Julius paid no heed to the request whichbad been made in such a mandatory tone.Sofia became angrier as her husband con-tinued playing and at lastshouted :"Julius1 want you to stop that noise." But Juliusonly smiled and kept on playing. Sofia grewlivid with rage, and seizing a pan of waterthrew itinto Julius face.

Then her husband putaway his vlolla andleft the house. Inthe evening he cameand began packing up his clothing. Sofiahad recovered from her paroxysm of angerand was willingto be forgiven, but did notask it. Her woman's curiosity could notbe restrained, however, and she tremblinglyasked what it all meant. The only replyher husband vouchsafed was that hebad shipped on a vessel bound for Vir-ginia after a load of oysters. Days andweeks and months passed, and the absent

•husband was not heard from, and Sofia wentto live with her husband's parent 4.

One day thirty-five years later the elderButton read of the arrival in New York ofthe United Stites brig Baiubridge, CaptainJulius Button. He said nothing of thegreat hope that bad sprung up in his breastbut hastened to New York, only to findthat tie brig cad sailed a few hours before.But his journey was not altogether fruitlesslor he learned that the captain of the Bain-bridge was his own son. It lifted a heavyload frcm the old man's heart, although hefelt keenly his disappointment at not seeinghis son, who had for many years beenmourned ns dead. Sadly the old man re-turned to his home in North Haven. Fromthat time he became a close reader of thenewspapers and at last, four years later,his vigilance was rewarded. He read:"The United States brig Bainbridge,Captain Button, is expeected to arrive atthe Brooklyn Navy Yard to-morrow."Once more the old man journeyed to themetropolis. He found the brig with diffi-culty and was ushered into the cabin toawait the captain, who was on shore.

Captain Button looked curiously at theCray-haired old man whom he bad been toldwished to see him, but did not recognizebiiu. Nor did the father recognize his son.Slowly the old man told his errand."Iam Captain Button, sir," responded

the captain."Don't you know me, Julius ? lam your

father."Itwas a very affecting meeting, and when

Itwas brought to a close the father askedtremulously, "Julius, what shall Itellmother?"

Captain Button hesitated fora moment;then, without replying to the question, lieasked, "Where is Sofia?""She still lives with us.""Then you may tell mother that 1 may

come to North Haven when Icome backfrom my next voyage."An hour later Button Sr. was on his way

home, and Button Jr. was on a voyage toChina. When he returned two years laterhe learned that his father and mother weredead. Sofia still occupies the old home-stead, but Captain Button has never seenher since they parted.— N. Y. Herald.

HE DOES NOT TELLHOW.A Set of Antlera That Cost Crouch

Cockerill in theCincinnati Enquirer. Ue had an amusingexperience at the Racquet Club. In theold days when his bank aocount was larceand his club biils In proportion there wasno more daring hunter of big game IntheKockies than Crouch. Just at this time ofy*ar, when the market is dull, he would cooff Into North Park, Colo., and tbe v'rginbunting region thereabouts for weeks at htimr.

If you care anything aboutbig game, we've got the fioest hfi.ul of elkantlers upstairs you ever saw !" Crouchsaid he did caro something about big gameso they went upstairs. Tuere were tha oldiamilinr antlers branching out in that un-

\u25a0 pproadinblc beauty which sends a thrillthrough the sportsman's nerves."Iunderstand," said his cicerone, "that

Itcost the fellow who gave us those antlersa very pretty figure just to have themmounted."

"Yes," answered Crouch, dryly, "IknowJust what they cost him— 5701,000. I'm thelellow.

of the well-known logging firm, Jose &Son,is at the Snoqualmie Hotel. He reportsthat his brother-in-law, Charles Henry, whohad two ribsbroken by a falling tree a fewdays ago, Is doing well. The same day asthe accident the logging camp was startledby the appearance of some bears.

"You see, these bears follow us prettyclosely to lick the tallow off the skidroads." he said last night. "Several hadbeen hanging around, and on that day ourcook, Stewart, thought he would go bear-hunting. So he got out the doRS, and theysoon struck the trail of an old she bear withtwo cubs. The young ones went up a tree,but she stood on the ground ready to 6i;ut.Stewart concluded that ho had better nottackle her alone, and so he got a young fel-low named Harding to help him. They hada Run and a revolver. When they got prettyclose Stewart began snapping th revolver.Then the old bear, irritated by this, wentfor him. As she reached him he decidedthat discretion was the better part of valor,and he and Harding fled for their lives tothe camp.

"The next day my brother and Istartedout to km those bears \u25a0 The does soonloun<l them, and again treed the cubs. Mybrother came upon them first. He said heheard a scratching and growling, and thenthe next thing he knew, he had climbed tothe top of a cedar slump. The old bear was

as game as the day before and showed fiphf,bnt he ainiea carefally and niKdo a linoshot— the first lie Lad met taken at a be.-r.She fell over with a ciy of pain, and tliecubs dropped from the tree as quick as aflash and ran to licr. Ihad reached thespot by that time, and Isaw them bite andshake lier inorder to rouse her. But slielived ODly a few minutes.

"We wanted to take tho cubs alivp, butthey were too big and fought too fiercelyThey were altogelher too nmeli for tliedogs. Finally Ishot them both.

AS MEPJIISTOPHELES.The Cxar Nicholas of Russia Demands

the Soul of a Kcbber.The Czar Nicholas of Russia, according

to Mr. Sal,!, was ve:y fond of attending themasked balls at the Grand Theater of St.Petersburg In a Mephistopheliaa disguise,says the Baltimore Sun. One night, orrather morning, when the ball was over, theEmperor, with a heavy fur pelisse over hisdemoniac attire, hailed a hack and bade thecoachman to drive him to the residence ofone of nis adjutants, merely telling himstreet and number; for tlipre he wanted tochange his clothes. The driver happenedto be a professional robber, and he drovehis august passenger dowu several darkstreets and onto the frozen Nava, where heintended to slay him, plunder the body andthrow tlie corpss into one of the holes cutinto tiie ice covering the river. So, suddenlystanding up in tho .sledge, and brandiahinif,an ax, ho cried out to his intended victim:"Idemand thy life!" But the Czar Nicho-las stood up likewise—he was almost a giantin stature— ana in a stentorian tone replied:"Idemand thy soul !" When the would-beassassin saw the moonbeams gleaming onwhat he thought to be the very devil him-self—horns, hoofs, tail and all—he utteredone appalling yell, fell backward amt pres-ently gtive up the ghost. A post-mortem ex-amination showed that he was far gunewith disease of the heart

A CONTEMPTIBLE JOKE.A Mean FelloTP Who Sprinkled Feppor

on the Floor at a Dance.A practical joke playpd in the Casino of

the Union County Club at Plainfield islikely to prove a serious matter to the per-petrator if be is caught, says a New Yorkspecial to the St. Louis Globe-DemocratThe trick was played upon the occasion ofthe second "summer hop" of this season.The Casino has been prettily decorated, andwell-known society people from Xew Yorkand Brooklyn were the guests of tlie promi-nent PlainSeld residents. Tlie scene wasone of niu.-h guyety when the opening dancewas begun, but it soon changed. Some onobad sprinkled cayenne pepper over thewaxßd surface of tbe ball-room floor, andthe result was felt as soon as the dancingwas wellunder way. The tripping feet audthe swaying of skirts raised a cloud of dustthat was intolerable iv tbe heated andcrowded ball-room. The puugent odor ofthe red pepper penetrated every nook andcorner, fill'm;; tlie eye-, throat and nostrilsof those present until the coughing audsiiPfzine became so general that a hasty ad-journment was taken to another apartment.Acorps of potters with brushes and dampsawdust finallycleared the. b:ill-room of thepepper and th« ilanwug was resumed. ItHsaid that the officers of the County Club willmake Mreuuous efforts to have tlie offenderpunished.

WHEAT- Ueerbohm's list or July 17th says:"The reports concerning the Russian crops re-ceived during the present week are again unfavor-able on the whole. There can 110 longer. Indeed, beany doubt that the Wheat crop, except Insonic partsof the smith, or Russia, will be considerably belowan average, aid that the Rye crop, the principal TopIn Russia, willbe very deficient, a reliable author-ityin l;us->ia estimates the Wheat crop as 10 to 15per cent below an average or 3U,000.000 quarters,and the Bye crop at 25 per cent below a fullaver-age of say W.0J0.000 quarters. Ifthis be the case—ah 1 it will be well uot to trust too Implicitlytothese early estimates— Russia willnot be able tospare more than 7,000.000 to 8.000.000 quarters ofWheat next season and verylitteBye. The seriousquestion, infact, is the great (tendency Inthe lattercrop, a deficiency which there ca:i be littledoubthas led to the recent reports of

'famine ami starva-

tion'in the central parts or Russia; and that there

is some foundation for .these reports Is apparentwhen ItIs louad that Rye U just now dearer thanthe commoner sorts of Wheat In Russia, and withinonto 4s per quarter of the value of Wheat at bothBerlin and Amsterdam.
