Trad waa too heavily loaded to permit fro move ment an excessive run prompting leisurely purchase snd effort at cheapening cost Right around 1S.0O) head of tat stork ar rived, sume through Colorado being in cluded, and bulk of this estimate con sisted of fed ewe and fed lamb. Reluctant buying early delayed th main session until well along toward midday, but there were fteattered order at the opening that appeared to bo mora or less urgent and business transacted before s:sv o'clock averaged atedy lo merely a shade lower, a compared with price tn force last Friday. Offerings that did, not get th benefit of early competition hod to clear on a quiet market that was gen erally quoted lutjlsc lower. Toppy western lamb bought, K'S. the best figure paid for stock of this descrip tion, while good elasae ranged at Moo and les. Common to fair grade were wanted only at big dlsooukts, the range tn values amounting to about IL25. Sheep sold 1 readily than .lamb In most instanc a local trad In ma tured mutton has been crowding eastern markets for ionic time past. Extra good ewes landed at 13.96, but It required- long work-out to piac unattractive strings at tc 5 and less. Wether and yearling were scarce, cholc wether moving at 14.36, with yearlings quotable up to 26 M. . Th feeder market wa a seasonably small affair, owing to slack demand and meager supply.

FLAK JAILTJBX aesolatlem for Kleetlow ta Be Dts caseed Either Taewakaw Nlgkt ar at tke Next Mesrtlag Fellawlag. A resoluUon will be submitted to th city council tonight or oa tho next meeting; night, asking that the people be allowed to vote on 223.000 bonds for th purchase of th Auditorium. Th plan to get stock by donation baa been a flat failure. "We have 3T, shares." said City Clerk Butler. "These share wen given by 134 small shareholders. It will ba noth ing but fairness to turn them back If taieoj should be voted by tb poopl to purchass the Auditorium." Director of th Auditorium have ap peared at each meeting of the committee of tha whole for several week to urge action. The council I apparently not worrying about It and sometime ago shelved the correspondence and proposi tion "If the people seem to want tho Audi torium they ought to be allowed to vote on It." said Jpdge Louis Berka, president of the council. Other councilman approve the Judge's stand, but are not willing to submit a proposition for more bonds at thl time. P. A. Nash, who has handled the oral side of th directors' case before the coun cil, professes to favor city ownership, because the property Is best adapted for auditorium purposes. The city also neetAt such a structure, he says. The price at which the building will be aold to the city Is $50,000 less than was at first submitted. Directors of tho Auditorium assert that it can be disposed of for private purposes kt any time, at th figure at which It Is offered to th city. Former Omaha Boy - Makes Discoveries In the current Issue of tho LiUrary Digest attention 1 paid to Prof. Stebblns snd his astronomical observations of tho . "Demon Star" and Its companion. Prof. Stebblns. an Instructor In the University of Illinois, Is a son of C. & Stebblns of this city, and graduated from the Omaha High school. Speaking of new discoveries about th "Demon Star" tho Literary Digest says: "Th vaiisbl star Algol, sometimes known as tho "Demon," oscillates con tinually between the second and the fourth magnitude, taking a few hours less than three days to make the change. This periodical alteration In brilliancy ha been shown to be due to the fact that Algol Is a double star, consisting of two celastlan bodies revolving In orbit about their common center ot gravity. The chang In brightness Is explained by sup posing on of the bodies to be brilliant and the other dark, so that when th aecofid passes between 11a and tha other, It light 1 shut off. Now. howaver. come aa American astronomer. Prof, Stebblns. ot the University ot Illinois, who shows ttiatVri "companion" of Algol, tar from being dark, shin with over five time the brightness of our own sun. Surprising as thl Is, It do not funda mentally altar the theory of Algol' varia tion, for the brighter of tho two com ponents of that star I more than fifty time aa bright aa our sun, aad a .larg peTOantag of the light ia, therefore, shut oft when It companion pas In front ot it nough to account for th observed chang In magnitude."

Lester Heyn Home From Bermuda Isle Lester Heyn. photographer. Is bom' from Bermuda, and he say that th Island Is the best governed place he haa ever visited. "You don't see the political squabble there that you do here for th reason that Is I a limited monarchy. Moat people have the wrong impression about a monarchy of any kind, and I myself thought that a republic was th best until I visited Bermuda. The gov ernment 1 in the hand of a few and th lower claases don't get a chance to have any power, but nevertheless all classes have their representation and everybody is apparently prosperous and happy. I didn't . bring any Bermuda onions back with me."
