The week opens up with scarcely any corn fed cattle on the market as usual. There Is a liberal run here with a good sprinkling of common grass beef steers and a large propor tion of cows and heifers. The latter show a decline from a shade to 10 lower while some of the common steers have been picked up more readily than heretofore for beef on account of no better ones being offered for sale. The stockers and feeders are fully steady with the exception of light steers and calves with which the market is glutted. Dealers shipped calves from this market to Kansas City Saturday and the Kansas City dealers who were over stocked shipped calves up here. We look for a steady to strong market on good killers for the balance of the week. We quote: Choice corn feed beef.$6.4O0»$7.25 Fair to good...4.25(a) 6.30 Range steers. 4.60(a) 5.40 Others from.3.76 to 4.50 Cows and heifers.3.30Qi> 4.15 Good butcher grades.2.90(a) 3.40 Canners and cutters.2.00(at 2.65 Veal calves. 3.50(3) 5.75 Bulls, stags, etc. 2.25(a) 3.75 C. stockers & feeders.4.50 (3) 5.00 Fair to good. 3.75(ai 4,40 Stock heifers. 2.75(3; 3.25 The firm tone mentioned in our letter of a week ago in the market has manifested itself very decidedly since and Monday found the best hog market we have had for several weeks. Tuesday’s run was the heaviest in several months. Bulk $5.60 to $5.80. There was considerable activity in the sheep barn with good killers readily moving at stronger prices. Feeders are fully steady. Battle Creek Enterprise: Tobias Hanen, father of A1 Hanen, who drew No. 3 in the Tripp county land allot ment, was in Battle Creek yesterday. Naturally, Mr. Hanen is highly elated over bis son’s phenomenal good luck, which now appears to be increasing as the time for filing approaches. It is reported that since the “Miss” who drew No 1 is possessed of a lawful, living husband her claim will be as were her dreams of wedded bliss. The man at Ponca who drew No. 2 is said to have so much land already the government balks at allowing him to take more. If all this be true, Mr. Hanen is slated for first choice. Rebird item in the Lyuch Journal: Monday morning the Niobrara river decided to pay Holt county a visit and by eleven o’clock the south end of the north bridge was about 30 feet from solid footing. T. Courtney, super visor for Boyd county, \nd our super visor, Mr. Roberts, met at the bridge Tuesday and after looking the ground over decided that it would be neces sary to build a new 36 foot span to insure a crossing for the future, and this will be built at once. Building a temporary bridge was pushed with vigor, fifteen men and three teams worked like trojans Monday and Tues day. Tuesday evening about six o’clock the work was completed and traffic opened. Found—Last Sunday afternoon, two blocks east of Fourth street a pair of glasses in leather case. Owner can have same by calling at this office and paying for this notice. To Cure Hay Fevar. Take one pound of ragweed leaves (with stems, flower and seeds Indis criminately or without them), boll in two quarts of water down to on© quart aud strain. Divide this one quart into three parts—vis, one pint and two half pints. On the first day, take one-twelfth of the one pint every hour—twelve doses. The second day take one-twelfth of one half pint ev ery hour, and on the third day take the same quantity—viz, one-twelfth of one-half pint.—Detroit Free Press. Fish and Salt. And the mystery still lingers—why, is it necessary to salt a fish caught in the salt ocean? A sea bass caught off Seabright requires just as much salt in the seasoning as a black bass caught in the saltless waters of Lake Erie.—New York Press. What is more appropriate for a Christ mas present than an article made from the best material obtainable, and that will lessen the work and save money on the fuel bills. The Great Majestic is the undisputed King of all cooking stoves. You can get them only at BRENNAN’S GROWTH OF CARICATURE. John Law’s Wild Schemes Gave It a Tremendous Impetus. Caricature is nowadays one of the principal methods of criticism. No movement can overreach the mark without eliciting dozens of works of art from caricaturists all over this and all other countries. This branch of criticism and attack dates far back, but the greatest Im pulse it ever felt came from the age of tremendous speculation, when, In 1719 and 1730, John Law was manipu lating things financial in France. Nev er before bad the financial world been so carried off its feet as it was at that time. Members of the nobility were waiting for a chance to purchase shares in Law’s schemes. Duchesses and ladles of high renown tried their most persuasive charms on Law in the attempt to get hold of shares. Men hired out their backs for writing desks, so great was the press of business in ^making contracts, and one hunchback is reputed to have made 100,000 francs in this way in a few weeks. The French went veritably mad over the schemes to become wealthy. Natural ly the papers of the time, especially those of Holland, caricatured the state of affairs. There were pictures of all sorts caricaturing Law, the nobility, the schemes and everything connected with them. It was this tremendous amount of pictorial work that first directed the energies of William Hogarth in Lon don in this direction. Caricaturing began to be used more and more in the political field, and soon afterward it caused the shelving of Robert Walpole from the English ministry. Ever since then has caricaturing been one of the bitterest and most effectual methods of (checking publiQ men and Iheix schemes. . ...—.
