MARKET LETTER From Our Regular Kansas City Stock Yard Correspondent Kansas City Stin k 5 aids, May 17, lftQO, The cattle run last vu t k was up to recent weeks, and sellera were well pleased, the uarket c!< fl ing with a net gain of 10 I" -0 cents on all kinds. Supply today .» l.i,000 head here, hut tin- in cludes 4tK)0 head of stock < attle rnroute from tin* South to the Northwest, leaving ll;0o0 on the market. The strong market re entiy Iihh encouraged feeders lo hold on, ami receipts last wei k contained n smaller percentage of steers selling below $0 than usual. Buyers tried todisci iminate against heavy steers last week, but the de mand was too great, and they were not able to change prices for the worse at any time. Conditions a. -' much better than a month ago, and the consumptive demand for meats continued to expand last week. 'Pop steers here today sold at $6 80, as compared with top < f $6.00 on different days last week, and the steer market is called stea dy to 1(1 lower loday, bulk of steers, $5.85 to $6.05, cows and heifers steady today, best cows worth $5.75, and top heifers $6.50, calves a quarter higher than n week ago, top veals $7.25, hulls $3.75 to $5.25. Stockers and feed ers have been quiet without much change in prices, market steady to day. A few half fat steers are go ing to the country at $5.60 to $5.80, hulk of feeders $5 to $5 60, stockers $1 to $5.10. The hog run last week was 70, cKX) head here, a decrease of 30, 000 head as compared with same week a year ago. The market ad vanced 10 cents during the week, put prices are 5 to 10 lower today, supply 13,000 head. The bear feature today is a run at Chicago ten thousand head greater than estimates for today. Gener d con ditions are favorable to the trade, dr maud for all kinds of meats hea vy. stimulated by the fact that pork iH cheaper relatively than either beef or mutton. Heavier receipts later this month and in •June may cause some losses in the hog market, but no serious dam age can be clone to prices until grass cattle and sheep come freely, the only thing that can cheapen these classes of live stock. Top bogs here today $7. Id, hulk of sales $6.‘,H) to $7.30. Sheep and lambs touched the high point last Monday, since when they have been slipping a little, spring lambs oil' 50 cents, goats 50 to 75 cents lower.

Announcement Party Miss Nellie Hart entertained Saturday afternoon at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. l’erry Hart, near Reserve. The decora tions were jn lavender and white, the same color scheme being used iu the refreshments. Lavender heart ice cream was served and at each guests place was a boquet of Sweet Williams tied with lavendar ribbon.

Referee's Sale The Leslie laud that was adver tised to be sold at sheriff’s sale Monday afternoon was sold and A. R. Scott acted as referee. Sixty acres were sold to Fred Meyer at $101 per acre and Schultz pur chased the remaining seventy-nine acres, paying$95 per acre for it. HER METHOD OF REASONING Little One Used Sound Logic in As certaining Just How Old Mamma Was. Lillie Frieda is a liright miss who comes to her conclusion* on linos of what to her small mind seem >tiiit and logical reasoning. So one shopping day. with more specu lation m her eve than her mother noticed, she inquired, "What kind of a waist did you ask that lady for, mamma?” "I asked her for a 38 waist," an swered thi1 mother. When they got home, Frieda, with the air of a discoverer, pranced gaily up to her grandmother. “I've found out how old mamma is," she announced; “she’s 38.” “How did you find it out?” queried the grandmother. “Because she bought a 38 waist. She buys me ten-year-old dresses, so if she buys 38 waists for herself, she must be 38 years old,” con cluded Miss Frieda triumphantly. “EQUINOCTIAL STORM." \ search of the weather records will reveal the fact that the day which marks the separation of the seasons and on which the sun "souths” exactly at noon is more likely than not to he dear and beau tiful, hut with the latitude that the amateur weather prophets of the [last always allowed themselves for safety’s sake, any storm occurring within several days before or after the time of equal day and night has been held to he either an early or a belated coming of the inevitable “line” storm. A very little thought on the area of the habited portions of the earth and the known causes of storms should convince those who are willing to he convinced that the “equinoctial” is a superstition and a myth. TURKEY DOOMED A regenerated Turkey is going to take hack all her old possessions in cluding Herzegovina and Bosnia, so the Austrians would better come in out of the wet and give them up in time. It is a splendid dream, worthy of a Turk of the days when the banner of the prophet swept to victory on a thousand fields of battle. But dead empires are not revivilied. l>ism tegration, not conquest, is the doom of the land of the sultan. V V. l’rcss. TRIP NOT ALL WASTED. “I’ve walked many miles to see you, sir," began (be tramp, “be cause people told me you was very kind to poor chaps like me.” “Indeed?" said the genial, white haired old man. “Are you going back the same way?" “Yes, sir." “Ab. Well, just contradict that rumor as vou go, will you? (lood morning. Stray Stories. A FAVORED FOWL. “I lias been told.” said Miss M iatni Brown, “dat de parrot is one of de longes’ lived birds dat is." “l)e statement," replied Mr. Eras mus l’iuklev, “is strictly ornitho logical.” “I wonder why 1” “I ’specks dat one reason why de parrot lives so long is dat he ain’ good to cat." TIMELY ENTERPRISE. “The political situation is devel oping a considerable amount of acrimony," remarked the observer. “Yes,” answered the candidate. “It's a good thing we had all those photographs taken early in the cam paign when we were still able to look pleasant." DRIVEN TO IT. “Let principle take the place of inspiration,” thundered one worker for the uplift. “Wouldn’t do for me at all,” de clared the press humorist. “When 1 haven’t an idea for a joke, I have to steal.”—Exchange. HEADING HIM OFF. “That was a pretty tall story the last speaker at the meeting was tell ing.” “Perhaps that was why the chair man cut him short.” ADHERING TO FACTS. “I met Jim Jones tho other day, and he told me that just now he was living high.” “So he is. Jim’s a motonnan on the elevated road.” JUST THE REGULATION MEAL Cowboys in the Early Days Evident ly Arose with Healthy Appetites. T. B. Sweet, n Topeka capitalist, stopped at Abilene m tlie early day at die best hotel m the city. He asked for his breakfast. The wall ers took no special notice of his ap pearance, or at least did not guess that his appetite was different from the average patron’s. “(five me some eggs." said Sweet, and waited. In a little while the waitress came back. In a bowl she had a full dozen eggs, all hard boiled. Sweet gasped and ate what lie could, protesting that she had brought him too many and that he didn’t just know how hard boiled eggs would strike him for his first meal of the day. “Why, that’s a regular cowboy’s breakfast,” responded the waitress. —Kansas City Journal.

Vanderbilt, at the Long Branch horse show, said of the sheath skirt: “You know those thick double veils, similar to a Turkish woman’s, that they have been wearing in New port this summer? Well, they .say in Newport that the other day an extremely pretty girl appeared in a very daring sheath skirt. “Her father took her to task about it. “‘Don’t you think,* lie said, ‘that the skirt you wore this afternoon is most immodest ?' “ ‘But, papa.’ said she, ‘I wear one of those thick double veils with it.’” HOT WEATHER CLOTHING. According to a Spanish physician, white clothing is unsuitable for use under a blazing tropical sun. lie declares that people should wear red colored clothing to keep cool. The disturbance of the nerves of the spinal column hv excessive actinic rays reacts upon the stomach, he says, upsetting digestion as well as | causing sunstroke. The remedy is a non-netinie covering for the skin, and a rial lining for wearing apparel t and helmet gives instant relief to the I troubles from a torrid suu and en* j aides a workman to stand exposure with comfort. WILLING TO OBLIGE. ‘‘When you feels any tomptatimi coinin’ along,” saitl the friend and adviser, “you inns’ say, ‘Get thee be llin’ me, Satan.’ ” “Da’s what 1 done said,” an swered Mr. Krasins l’inkley, “an’ den I 'magines I hyulis Santan an swer me back, ‘Da's all right. We’s both gwi ne de same way nohow an’ it don’ make no diiT’unce to mo which leads de puheession.” SOMEWHAT ANNOYED. “What sort of a time did you have while you were abroad?” “Not very satisfactory,” answered Mr. Cumrow "1 saw a great many historical curiosities, but I kind of resented having the waiters and cab drivers put on airs over me because they could speak French, the same as mother aud the girls.” NOT SO FOOLISH. “Yes,” said Phamliman, “may daughter is to be married next month to Count Brokaw.” “Ah!” remarked the friend, “everything's settled, eh?” “No, sir-ree! You don't catch pje paying in advauee.” Weak Heart Action There are certain nerves that control the action of the heart. When they become weak, the heart ! action is impaired. {Short breath, pain around heart, choking sensation, palpi tation, fluttering, feeble or rapid pulse, and other distressing symptoms fol low.
