Cuttle receipts yesterday were 4.800 head. Desirable cattle sold readily to fully steady figures. On the medium and common cattle, however, the trade was slow right from the start and In some cases values were s shade lower. The trade In cows snd heifers was comparatively small. De mand was fair from all sources, but all classes of buyers were fighting any further advance on butcher stock, and the result was a very slow trade throughout. Right good heifers and light cows generally sold at pretty close to steady figures, but It took more or less shaded prices to move the general run of butcher and canner stock. Veal calves, bulls, stags, etc., were readily salable at full last week's figures. There was not much doing in stockers and feeders, as sup plies were very limited and the de mand was decl.ledly restricted.

DECLINE IN MARRIARES Number of Licenses hsued During Past Month One of Bmall cut In History During the past month there has been an unaccountable falling off In the number of marriage licenses Is sued in this county. The cause is a deep mystery, and the only plan that can be advanced Is that the Eu ropean war is the cause, as It Is claimed to be the cause of mcst ev erything else that is disastrous to our country. Surely it cannot be on account of the scarcity of young la dies of marriageable age, or a scare lty of the other aex. The thought of bashfulness should also be banished, for there Is little of that article In forward Box Butte county. There has been no change In the price of the license, so there Is another ellm lnatlon. When asked what b ethought was the cause, Judge Berry "gave It up for he could see no reason for the slump. He stated that he could give a couple a license that would bind them Just as tight as a license pur chased any other place in the United States, and that his price was Just as cheap as that of competition. From the exchanges we glean that a similar condition prevails in other counties over the state, and they are all at a loss to account for the dis aster. June is "the" month, and it is possible that all the weddings will come In a hurry then. If not, then the Herald intends to call a special session of congress to Investigate the matter and file a report.
