The latest of a long series of record
breaking prlcea, which have been remark
able the last two weeks on the South
Omaha live stock market, was paid Thurs
day when two car loads of hoge brought
the figure of $9.06 per hundred weight
Last week's new record waa'8.90.
Both of the record making shipments
were of hogs fed on Nebraska farms.' One

hoga waa from the feeding pens on J. E.

Another high price, although not en tab
Hulling a record, was paid for Colorado fed
lambs. One shipment of 922 head, the
property of George and August Tost, Love
land, Colo., brought 19 a hundred, while
another lot of 1,923 head aold . for S.
These are the hlgheat prlcea paid for lambs
this year.
The purchase of the lambs Thursday represents-a
bit of a triumph over the Chi

at South Omaha, out of a Chicago bound
Shipment, which had atopped only to feed.
The rlvatry between South Omaha and
Chicago has been growing because of the
scarcity of the Colorado, lamba, which are
so much In demand.
CHICAGO, Feb. 17. Live hqgf at the

Some Things You
Laws of
A fight soon Is to b made to determine
how great a reward shall be paid to the
German steamer Erlka for the salvage of
another German teamr. the Vartln. f ha
Erlka sailed from New York a few weeke
ago bound for Fayal and other porta. When
several days out It sighted th Vafaln,
lying helpless In the trotigh of the aea.
It Immediately gave tha disabled freighter
a tow Una and headed with It for Boaton.
The question whlch all thla will bring up
la what oompensatlon the Erlka shall get
for the salvage of the Varsln. That the
latter waa a valuable prise Is shown by the
fact thht It had a cargo worth M,0O0,0C.
It carried KOOO bags of wool, and was one
of the richest laden ships that aver sailed
from an Australian port. Jurisdiction over
this easa wilt be taken by the admiralty
courts of Germany, alnoe both vessels are
of German register. The recompense of
the Erlka will be based on 'the degree of
danger, tha value of the rescued cargo, the
loss of time, apd such other evidence as
may be submitted.
Maritime usage often works queer ano-
mallea, owing to the variations of the
statutea of tha different countries. Tha
case of the Republic tha first anniversary
of whoso sinking occurred a few days ago.
affords a notable Illustration of this. Tha
English owners of - the Republic hava
sought to have all litigation growing out
of Its sinking take place In the courts of
the United Btates. The Americana and the
Italian concerned preferred that thla liti
gation should take . plaoe In England.
Tha reaaon of all this Is not far to seek.
American and Italian maritime laws pro
vide that the liability of ship owners shall
never exoeed the' value of the ship Itaclf.
The English law fixes tb limit of damagea
at $10,000 per life lost, and $40 for each ton
of gross register. The owners ot the Re
publlo would hava been liable for double
as much In the English as In the American
or Italian courts.
The Oceanic waa boing towed by a tug
not. long ago, and It waa shown that It
waa injured by colliding with the tug. Tha
case waa brought Into the courts, and by
way of defense the tug owner exhibited
a contract In which the tow aasumed all
responalbtllty for damage. Tha court held
that when this was done an accident grow
ing out of the plain negligence of the crew
of the tug oould not give grounda for the
recovery of damage. lit another case tha
charterer of a ship agreed to unload It
Among other thing on board were some
boiler weighing many ton. The charterer
employed the captain and the first mate
to superintend the Job. They tried to use
the main mast a part of the neceaaary
hoisting tackle, but It buckled and broke.
The ship owners sued the charterer for
damages. His defense was that he had
employed their agents to superintend the
Job, and that the ship owner were re
sponsible for the acts of their agents. The
court held that the captain and mat war
acting a the charterer's agent when the
accident happened.
A curious situation has come about under
the coastwise shipping laws of the United
States. In order to Insure all the coast
wise traffic to vessela of Amerloaa regis
ter a fine Is provided for every person or
dollar' -worth of merchandise carried be
tween American porta on foreign vessels.
On of' the big tourist agencies has a
tourist steamer making a trip around , the
world. It will reach the Pacific seaboard
thlf aummer. Under the shipping laws, If
It land - its passengers at San Franolsoo
it will ba liable to a heavy fine. It It takes
them to Vancouver It will escape tda fine.
Of course, everyone rea.'les that the coast
wise shipping laws never were Intended to
cover such cases, and It I not improbable
that the steamship company will take the
bit In Its teeth, land It passenger and
then test tha constitutionality of the law
Insofar aa It hely to apply to auch caaea.
One of the most Interesting phasea of
maritime law la the general lookout that
must be kept for derelicts. The United
States hydrographlo pfflce keeps' careful
account of all derelicts through the re
ports It reoeives and the knowledge of
ocean ourrenta which It possesses. In one
of Us room there I kept a big map of
the seas. On this map, starting at various
points, are Irrecular linea traced with
I chalk. At the end of each line la a pin.
to whloh Is attached a tag.. Each day the
line Is lengthened and the pin moved that
much further. On tha tag attached to
each pin la the nam of the derellot which
It represent. By thla method the chart
showa the probable position of each derelict

NEW CANAL SCANDAL BREWS
Learned Fust Stirred Up Our Mars
by Prof. Lowell. '
FATHER RIGGE LAUGHS AT IDEA
Crelarhtoa Scientist Cannot Stanel for
tho Notion that They're Irrigat
ing or Sailing Boat on
the Planet.
Another canal scandal 1 brewing. With
the North pole controversy now rather
completely disposed of, the field of scien
tific agitation is about to be occupied with
a rare and learned fuss about the very Ro
dent and respectable planet Mars. It will
be Prof. Perclval Lowell, director of the
aalronlmlcal observatory at Flagstaff,
Arl.i against the field.
A few day ago Prof. Lowell added the
last component to - the goiule simmering
cauldron of controversy by announcing the
discovery of another "canal" on Mar.
The simmering promise to come to a rear
boiling temperature soon. This canal, the
astronomer-champion of a Martian body
politic, aays, la neatly fringed with dark
trip showing to hi keen eye tbe unmis
takable evidences of vegetation. In other
worda tha Martian reclamation aervlce has
opened up a new irrigation projeot for set
tlement, according to Ita terreatlal preaa
agent at Flagstaff.
Father William F. Rlgga, Crelghton unl
veralty'a astronomer, amlled Indulgently
when he waa approached about .thla new
Lowell discovery. ,-
The replle he made indicate that the
opinion of the scientist la that Prof. Lowell

"I don't queatlon hla honesty a hit," said
Father Rlgg. "but the general opinion of

Imperfect observation of a series of spot
which, to him. have created tha Illusion

place of their picking up recorded. In this
way tha hydrographlo office I thoroughly

When they are reported as having been
sighted the chart and the reported posi
tion are compared, and It usually la found
that tha aasumed position on the map
correspond closely with those shown by the
reports of tha captains who sighted them.
It la aald that neither Cook nor Peary
reached the North pole first, but that the
honor belonga to a bottle turned loose In
Bekrtng sea several year ago. Its dis
covery on the coast of northern Europe
Indicated that It must have passed close
to the North pole In traveling from it
starting point to Its destination.
Tha number of derelicts that are cited is
not large. In seven year there were
sighted In North Atlantic waters 1.638, of
whloh only 4M were Identified. Derelicts
do not, as a rule, last long once they are
abandoned to the mercy of the wave It

stand the 'beating of the wave for long
periods and Insist on staying close to the
track of commerce.
It I believed that tha day soon will
com when all ocean-going vessela. will be
required to equip themseives with wlrelera.
Tha English C Q D message that brought
relief to the Republic, the equally Impor
tant International SOS message that
saved the live of those aboard a lake
ateamer, and a similar message whloh
saved the live of another crew a few day
ago, have all had their lesson a C Q D
and SOB message to congress to make
compulsory the use of wireless. Such
legislation find a land counterpart In the
requirement that ail railroad train shall
b equipped with air brake and safety
couplers. On the sea It finds Its counter-
. part, in the requirement that each vessel
must bo equipped with lifeboats and life
preservers, and that there must be a spe
cified number of fire drills. The wireless
companies are pointing out to congress
the comparatively small cost' of Installa
tion and operation.
Juat now congress is wrestling with the
problem of the Interference of amateurs
with wireless meaaagea. The wireless com
panies declare that the amateur operator
are largely responsible for the few dlf
ficultlea that still present themselves. On
tha other hand they are met with the
counter assertion that the Whole proposi
tion Is In the Interest of monopoly. ' The
science of wireless Is sd new that many
discoveries may grow out of experimenta-
tion with It, and the amateurs feel that
this Is a deep laid design to cut off the
Inborn right of every American to work hts
inventive genius to the utmost. The court
have not yet fully settled the exact statue
of wireless telegraphy aa applied to marl
time matters, though there are cases
' pending which may. serve to fully determine
lis relations.
The advent of wirelees ha .served to re
tire the carrier pigeon from Its usefulness
at aea. The British navy has held auctions
for the sal of It birds, which were trailed
under every conceivable condition in which
they would have .operated In war time.
A recent lnoldeht In the . operation of
maritime law has It amusing side. A big
wrecking company undertook to salve a
vessel which had la Its cargo several hun
. dred barrel of wine. Th qperaUon was
partly aucceasful, but hlfhseo washed
-overboard many barrels.. of.. Jhe palatable
liquid. The wrecking company told Ita men
, tjjat these barrela now were loose on the
high aeaa and the property of whomso
ever took them. in. There was a scramble
to yawls and launches, and - the - sailors
, gathered In the floating cask. .Afterward
there waa litigation over the ownership of
the wjne, and the courts held that It Was
tha property of the sailor who had risked
their all to capture it. .
Another Interesting point In International
law arose when several plga which were
taken to England were rcfuaed admission
to that oougtry becauae they had tubercu
loma. The steamship company carried them
back and forth for'several trips and it was
found that tha salt air had oured their
tuberculosis, whereupon they were duly
admitted.
The day of real hardship for tha sailor is
largely over. The laws of the nations now
protect him. The United Slates statutea
declare that no corporal punishment ahall
ba Inflicted on any American sailor, like
wise that he must be well fed. His rations
are prescribed, aqd be nyiy see It weighed
out to him. Much of the recent maritime
legislation ha had for It aim the recog
nition of the right of the sailor.

Soma good stories of the Incidents attend

evening come out every time the Omaha
delegates fall to talking about It. Colonel

Dunn of another, while City Clerk Butler
was the victim of a third.

"Why, don't you know hlmT That'
Colonel Molse, who used to supply one
third of Bryan's campaign fund from

And Just then Molse burst out with the
declaration:
No Mara Bryan' for Ma. .
"I've been for Bryan every time, but
never again for me. He's a dead one now
with so many democrats that he will have
to Join the prohibitionists."
"My, my," ejaculated the Chautauqua
person. "Such outbursts are quite un
seemly." He put on a look that gave Louis PlatU
a chill, and Louie la not easily refriger
ated. Dunn, who was accorded the great honor
of nominating a third defeat at Denver,
was given so little consideration by the
banquet managers that, h could not even
get to the table. He had to content him
self by wrapping hi dignity about him and
staying la the ruck of the Crowd out In the

by the cavalier treatment given the erst

"Am no friend of drinking, but I was completely cured
. of Grippe and Stomach Trouble by the use of Duffy's
Pure Malt Whiskey and I feel like a different person.
It brought back restful sleep and health," writes
Mrs. Mathews. ' ; '
"I do not believe in the abuse of whiskey and, nm no
friend of drinking, but the value of a pure medicinal
whiskey has been clearly demonstrated and, taken in
small doses, it certainly is a wonderful help to weak,
miserable sufferers. Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey is the
purest liquor I have ever seen. I shall speak, in its
praise to everyone who needs it. I am so glad to be of
help to others who suffer.
"Last winter I had a very bad spell of La Grippe, and
tried every remedy I could hear of. My stomach was so
weak I had to vomit every day and I would wake up in
the night so sick and weak. Nothing seemed to give me
relief. At last I saw your advertisement and my hus
band ordered some of your Malt Whiskey for me and it
- worked like a charm. I began to eat better and sleep
better and the sickness at my stomach has all passed
