Hogs-estimated receipts, $4,000; for the

time panic, as it were. values going down
with rush on medium and big heavy, the
decline at one time rating a strong 10c on
everything but light. curiosity to the trad
ing this morning was that where in extremely
heavy say 40U lbs averages and upwards,
would not sell for over S47O, the light of
100 to 12O lbs averages sold at So. 1905. 20.
These big heavy grades were harder to sell
to-day than any day this week. The bulk of

AGREEABLE MANNERS.
How They Contributs to Success

How They COntributs to Success
Some Surly Blue Bloods.
London Truth.
Lord Palmerston once said to friend
of mine, who, as young fellow, was
patroniZed by that statesman: "Never
forget that a much-neglected road to sus
cess is agreeable manners. The man of
woman with agreeable manners will
make Roadway in the face of the worst
difficulties. Every one is against the
disagreeable people whose best chance
lies in Secluding themselves as much as
they can" Emperor William might
ponder with advantage on these words
of Pam.
Not having secluded himself, but gone
to Vienna and Rome, the allies OF his
grandfather there would gladly slip
from their alliance with him. The old
Emperor and Empress Frederick bore
their great positions with simplicity and
sweetness. William Ii. hears with i'm
patience all opinions that do not march
with his own. and is arrogant in putting
them down. He has made the Emperor
Franz Joseph bristle up. The Italians
were unfavorably impressed with him.
From whom did he take his bad man
nerS? His father was such nice, good
fellow, and so knightly! The old grand
father was courtesy itself. The Empress
Frederick is not insolent OF naughty;
neither is Augusta, who attaches but
small importance to her imperial rank,
and whose ideal of life is intellectual
and lady.like Bohemianism. My theory
to explain the bad form Of William II.
is that he has too much SaXe-Coburg
blood in his veins. The Queens man
ner's, when she is in good humor, are
pleasant But when she is not-well, l
don't venture to say how she struck me
Oh public occasion, Oh which l saw
her in a sullen mood.
cannot conceive how any one could
have liked the prince consort, there was
so much ice in his demeanOr. The
Duke of Edinburgh and his uncle,
Ernest. are both surly. Old King Leo
pold inspired rcpugnance to all but
Sake Coburgs and Baron Stockmar. The
Duchess of Kent was the best SaXe-CO-
burg that ever lived, and the most
agreeable, she being free from affecta-
ton, and throughout life good soul,
though, in some respects, masterful
woman.

pulled out his watch and said:

bore holes in the bottom of the carriage
to let out the water, which poured into
