Stockmen who were In the city yesterday
discussed with keen Interest < the sale of the
Dougherty herd of Hereford to Tlnnln &
Irwln of Texas , the announcement of which
was made through The Dee last Tuesday.
From a reliable source It 1 now learned
that In the big deal Matt Daugherty re
ceived for his herd close to $38 per head ,
and the price Is considered not at all out
of the way for the grade of cattle which
changed hands. Seven hundred bead of cat
tle were disposed of In the deal , the trans
action Involving the rouud sum of at least
$26,600.
The foundation for thla herd was laid by
Mr. Daugherty In 1S86. Then ho purchased
403 head of Panhandle heifers which bad
bcon brought up 'to Nebraska on the last
trail drive to Ogatalla by the pioneer cattle
firm of Qromo & Crumbaugh. These heifers ,
together with 1,000 head of 2-year-old steers ,
had been taken to Crete nnd fed during the
winter of 1SS3 , and Mr. Daugherty bought
them In 'tho ' feed lot landing them on his
ranch In Keith county , In the North Platte
valley , In May , 188G. He then began to
breed with fourteen head of thoroughbred
registered shorthorn bulls secured from the
Wave-land herd of John Fitzgerald , then
located near Greenwood , In Casa county.
During subsequent seasons ho made two
changes of bulls , all thoroughbred regis
tered shorthorns. Then he brought Into the
breed n cross of Galloway and another too
of Polled Angus bulls. The next cross woo
thoroughbred registered Hereford bulls bred
at Albany , Mo. , nnd the loat two crocaes
have been Herefords , on the- foundation as
had > already been outlined. This brings the
herd up to the condition It was In when the
sale was made , and those who have seen the
stock say that there Is not a finer herd of
cattle In the west than this one.
Since he started this herd , in 1886 , Mr.
Daugherty had sold out of It about $10,000
worth of cattle. The 2-year-old feeders of
thU bunch sold off the range at the South
Omaha market on May 17 , 1897 , at J5 per
100 , weighed at the yards. The purchaser
was laughed at for paying such a price.
Ho did not put thcso cattle on feed until
the following August , nnd when ho returned
them to the South Omaha yards last month
they weighed nearly ns much again ns at the
time of their purchase. The Chicago live
stock Joumals took particular note of this
deal , and commenting upon It. said that the
stock dealers at the South Omaha market
were going Itisnmo ; 'that ' In support -ot this
assertion the bunch of feeders in question
brought $6 per 100 In the market , whllo a
herd of finished Polled Angus cattle that was
In the market at the eame time , weighing
1,350 pounds , brought only $4.80 per 100.
The purchasers of the Daugherty herd of
Herefords have decided to range the cattle
In Sherldnci county.
If you want to bo on the safe side stick

It Is sold by dealers everywhere.

A decision in regard to the controversy
between I. J. Dunn and the garbage con
tractor and the consideration of the bids
for furnishing the city with street sweeping
machines wcro postponed by the Advisory
Board until next week In order that acton
might bo taken by the full board. Building
Inspecor Butler was out of the city and
Mayor ( Moores was busily occupied in sign
ing the January salary warrants.
The owner of the building at 1320 Douglas
street , which was damaged by flro the other
day , complained that the building Inspector
had refused to issue a permit to repair the
building. The building Is a frame structure
and was condemned by Building Inspector
Harto a year ago , but the owners Insisted
that they would not tear their building down
until similar treatment was accorded to the
owners of other frame buildings In the bus
iness district. The board refused to act on
the matter , holding that It belonged entirely
to the building Inspector.
Wo are anxious to do a little good In this
world and can think of no pleasanter or bet
ter way to do It than by commending One
Minute Cough Cure as a prevcntatlvo of pneu
monia , consumption and other serious lung
troubles that follow neglected 'colds.

The egg market has dropped down another
notch consequent upon the break In eastern
markets , This Is the tlmo of the year to
cat eggs. HI Is st'lll too early to commence
putting stock In store and last year's stocks
are all Cleaned up , so that there are none
but strictly fresh eggs In the market.
The production of eggs Is running con
siderably ahead of the consumption In this
state , so that surplus stocks have to be
shipped to the eastern markets , with the re
sult that any tore-ik in the Now York market
is at once reflected in the local price.

The removal of the postofllco Into the new
federal building will probably take place
Fdbruary 22 , Washington's birthday. Post
master Martin Is still In the south , but wll
undoubtedly return homo In a lew Cays
Previous to his leaving the city ho an <
Assistant Postmaster Woodard had dls
cussed the question ot moving Into the new
building , and It was by them decided tha
an effort should bo made to hive the Wash
Ington officials set the opening for Washing
ton's birthday. Now that Postmaster Mar
tin has been authorized to settle the mat
ter It will undoubtedly toke place as ho
and his assistant luvo planned.
In speaking of the matter Assistant Post
master Woodard says : "I have no doub
but that wo will move Into the now building
on the 22d , that Is , providing no further
trouble la experienced as to receiving thi
furniture on time. It will bo a holiday am
wo will bo obliged to keep the offlco open
lor only about an hour In the morning. The
carriers will also make their regular mornIng -
Ing delivery , but after this wo shall get
them to carry over their cases and help In
transferring the other furniture. Of course
previous to the actual moving out wo shall
iiavo to prepare ourselves to do the work In
the shortest possible period ot time. The
Fast malls go out at 4:15 : and wo can the :
liave fully two hours before wo get the nexl
big consignment of railroad matter ready ,
which Is duo to leave the office at about C.
I think that the best tlmo to move would bo
between the hours stated. As to the man
ner In which wo will celebrate the event ,
this has not as yet been fully decided upon.
No reception will bo given , as this would bo
against the federal laws. The entire force
of carriers will bo lined up In front ot the
old building nnd , preceded by the postmaster
and other officials of the department , a short
march through the principal streets of the
city will bo mado. The procession will bo
leaded by the finest band wo can procure
and a band concert will bo given after the
larado reaches the new building. If there
s no hitch in the program as I have briefly
outlined It the now federal building will bo
opened to the public about 7 o'clock on the
evening of Washington's birthday. There
will bo speeches made by Postmaster Martin
and others , but who these last will ho has
not yet been decided upon. "

terday , presenting Mrs. Ryley's bright
comedy , "Christopher , Jr. , " nt the matinee
and "An International Match , " ono of Augus-
tln Duly's Ingenious adaptations from the
German , In the evening. Although the com
pany undoubtedly reached the lilghwater
mark of Its excellence In "Suo" on Tuesday
night , the two plays of yesterday were g'lven '
in a very enjoyable manner , and afforded
several of the 'players notably 'Miss iMc-
AllCstcr and Jlr. Blakemore opportunities
which neither "Sue" nor "Sheiwndoah" al
lowed. iBoth IMr. Fnmvley and Mr. Marx ,
who Is associated with him in the manage
ment of the company , are determined to win
the recognition of the Omaha theater-going
public , and although they ore not , In the
nature of things , too much encouraged by
thc'lr ' reception hero this week , they Intend
to como again without waiting so long be
tween calls cs to be forgotten. They and
the clover players who make up their or
ganization have gained many friends In the
course of this visit who will keep them , in
memory and reserve a warm welcome for
them against their return.
Tim Murphy , 'whom everybody remembers
as the original Maverick Brandcr In Hoyt's
"A Texus Steer , " and who , since his eleva
tion to starshlp , has more than maintained
the reputation gained by that earlier ven
ture , ibeglns tonight an engagement of three
nights and a matlneo at Boyd's. The en
tertainment consists of a double bill. In

famous under the title , "A Pair of Spec
tacles. " "Sir Henry Hypnotized" Is an

COLIDITY is a desirable thing. No man
wants to do business with a weak bank.
The history of business everywhere shows
that the stronger the concern financially
the cheaper it can sell goods. Special
discounts , special prices , special offerings
of all kinds come the way of the store that
can buy large quantities at one time.
Manufacturers do not go around with a
lantern looking for small stores. A re
cent order of ours called for nine thou
sand yards of one kind of cloth for one
kind of a suit. It took a mill four weeks
to turn it out. We bought that suit low
of necessity , - We buy everything low.
Perhaps we don't deserve so much credit
for selling things cheap after all.
C. P. Norwall & Co. , agents for Port Arthur Townsite
& Land Co. , will run an excursion to Port Arthur and -return -
at one fare for the round trip , on the 15th of February. These
excursions will run regularly the first and third Tuesday of
each month thereafter. Write or call on us.
