10 slaughtering points and eastern markets
has been opened by way of the Denver stock
yards and South Omaha. At present
Kansas City and Chicago have an entire
monopoly OF the Texas cattle trade owing
10 the rigid quarantine that Ne
braska holds against Tue shipment
Of Texas cattle into or through the state Tor
any purpose whatever, If the quarantine is
raised so that Texas cattle for Strengthening
purposes only are allowed TO pass through
the state, it is thought that a big business
would be transacted at Omaha, both for
slaughtering there and continuous shipment
eastward. As Kansas City and Chicago have
admitted Texas cattle in this way with no
attending evils, it is believed the Nebraska
quarantine can be raised TO that extent and
a large business be done on the new route
from Texas cattle districts TO Denver and
South Omaha.

Don't spoil the day by finding fault

Don't groWl because you don't get the

cred better by many good judges.
Give the young ones sll the gravy thev

with cranbury sauce to their stomsch's
content. It's anti-bIlious. Explsin to
them that the anatomical structure OF
the turkey makes 1t impossible for you to

BLACK BART.
The Lone Hishwayman who IL Holdirg Up
Stages IN Oslifornis.


SAN FRANCISCO, CAL Nov. 2s.-A de-
sec.ive in the employ OF Wells, Fargo
& Co., is authority for the state
men. that the recent series CT stage rob-
berries in Northern California were the
work CT "Bl:ck Bart" the famous lone
highWaymsn who robbed this:y one
stages in this state before he was
finally captured five years ago and
sent to San Quentin. Bart, whose resi-
name Is Bolles, came from Missouri and
begsn his rob5eries in 1870 and for thir-
teen years ne completely mystifed the
police. His system was to watch stage
coaches with powerful field glasses and
when he found that no armed guard WAS
on the stage he would mask himself and
hold up the stage without regard to the
number OF passengers on board. He
regularly returned money and vslusbles
to female passengers and it was his GUS
tom to leaye doggerel verses on broken
express boxas, making game of the de-
tectiyes. Hs WAS finally caught In San
Francisco and sent TO San Quentin for
seven Yeas. The detective learned
that Black Bart, after his
release last Jsnusry, went to
as Moore. When the stsge was robbed
near Reading last July the detectives gus
pected Bart, ana on Investigation he
found all the familiar methods used by
the lone highwkTmsn, and since then
three other stages have been robbed in
neighooring counties, all by the same
skilled hand. The descriptions of the
masked highwayman, as well as his dar
Ing and skill, corresponds with Bart.
The detectives have hopes Of soon catch
ing him, but the prospect Is dubious, as
he has eluded them before for morsSstaSh'
ten years. .alsssste<

ARouno-Up az rhauk.eivlpx,

Thanksgiving day was suggested,
doubtless. by the Hebrew feast of the
tabernacles, or "feast OF the ingathering
st the end Of the year" Its history in
America begins IS early as 1921. The
occasional observance of such 8 day,
formally recommended by the civil
authorities, WAS not unusual in Europe
st an earlier date. In Holland the first
anniversary Of the deliYerance of the City
of Leyden from the siege, October 8;
1875, WAS kept as religious festival Of
thanksgiving and praise. In the English
church service November is so celebrs-
ted, in commemorative of the discovery
of the guupowder plot.
One Ct the most remarkable Thanks

Southampton and Eisthampsor, Long
Island. Montsuk Point, which conssafs
OF 5000 acres, was owned by numerous
proprietors in these towns and used IS 3
common pasturage for stock. The tins,

At an early period Of Nav England
history certsin periods OF prosperity were
often made the occasions of public
tnanksgivings or fessts, and often 9 day
