I Masscy's Grading Camp Enjoys j TURKEYS YttPARCEL POST SumptUOUS Thanksgiving Feast Many FestiTe Birds and Other Fowl. '. i Delivered by New Mail Service. Jack C. Msesejr's gang of 10 uktnners, quartered In tents WfBt from r arnam street, spent two hours Thanksgiving day. carrying water and slinging wet gunny sacks to extinguish a prairie fire started when a hunter fired Into the dry weeds st a rahr.lt and the blazing waildlng started a blrnse. The hunter fled as the skinners came out of their Irtits. After the fire fighting Msssey's graders sat down to a Thanksgiving dinner the like of wlilrn was not in any other grading camp in Nebraska. From soup to nuts .through ten courses) of tempting savor, there was but one ex ception to the usual menu in grading camps on festal days there was no booie, no wine, no beer, but only cup on cup of finest Java. A weary tramp came by while the Thanksgiving dinner waa disappearing t , . and ass a surprised proletariat when he w taken Into the bonhomie of the crowd without question. "It Is one of Jsok's conrHts," said a grader. "No tramp ever passed this rump hungry. No tramp ever asked for food here but got It. It's Msssrys, and Maaaey's reputation. "There's never a better natured fellow than Jack, but he licked big Hurley Ilugan, the gest growler In the country, because Hogan said -a tramp was kicked out of thl rsmp. Hogan bonnted that he was the best boss of any grsrilntf camp In the wst, but when Jack got through with him he said: "Ex.-ert Jack Missey.' " Massey, six foot two and all muscle, presided o-er the TanUalvlng feast, ami "the guests" of the occasion and the sklnnera themselves Ate until they could eat no more and the food still tasted goed. TURKEYS PRETTY WELL SOLD Freth Nut. Are Piled High at the Local Markets. APPLES ABUNDANT AND CHEAP gar Is Back to the C ost tkat Reled Before Karopeaa War Broke Oat and the Price Was The turkey and cranberry waa pretty well sold out by Thanksgiving day and now that the big day Is over people are turning their attention to plainer fare, for a time, at least. The turkey market waa pretty well cleaned up and every where the comment Is heard that the tur keys were esiierlally good this year. For some reason, younger and more tender birds were on the market than usual. On account of the long, open fall, too, the turkeya had not suffered from cold and want of feed, so they wero unusually fat, which took away the dryness that often makes turkeya unpalatable. As for cranberries. In one grocery alone, that of Hayden Bros., fifteen barrels were sold. That means 1,600 quarts. Now that Thanksgiving Is over, the grocery stores and shops are, taking on a more holiday appearance. Fresh nuts are piled high on the market In a tempting fashion. They are sold at ' IS cents a pound for the mixed nuts. Shelled pop corn Is selling at 10 cents fur three pounds. Christmas candles of all varieties have appeared on the market. Fresh country eggs are hard to get and are selling at from 34 cents a dosen up. Htorage eggs can be had at 2G cents. Bed Blver Early Ohio potatoes, which have the reputation of being among .the very best on the-market, can now be bought for 75v a bushel. Cabbage Is being sold cheap still and It Is of good quality this year. It can be had aa low as l'ic a pound of splendid quality. ' Apple, are ' still abundant and ''cheap. Crated apples shipped In from the '.various noted apple states, can be had from $1.35 a bushel box to $1.65; while a few fancy grades of extra large apples sell as high aa $3 28. Bed onlona sell at 2c a pound. - Bermu das sell at a nickel. Sugar can still be had at nineteen pounds for $1. That Is about aa It waa before the war offered the opportunity to the sugar monopoly to boost prices. The war Is not over, but the canning season Is over, and dealers say that decidedly makes a difference to those who control the sugar market TWO JURIES IN DISTRICT COURT UNABLE TO AGREE Two Juries have disagreed and have been discharged in district Court in the personal Injury suit brought by Binella Makowskl against Morris ft Co., and In the replevin suit to recover two diamonds valued at $4f In which Laura Forbes, administrator of the estate of' FJmma Snyder, wss plaintiff and Chief of De tectives Maloney; who has custody of the diamonds, secured from ton Is Kelser, was defendant.
