press Com pany, at Brainerd, MINI, re-
c-ived from the st. Paul train early

of money consigned TO the First National
bauk from the Northern Pacific railroad
to be used IN paying the company's EN-
ployes.
Tue money was in four sacks. Two
contained $15 600 each in gold and the
other two silver. The messenger says he
receipted for the packages 81 the train
and pat thsm inside the express Office
door. Later ne put them in the safe and
locked l., but isw minutes afterwsrd
when he opened IL 20 check up. he dis
covered one of the gold packages miss

Not everyone can be q cOntOrtiOni5t.
Some feats are absolutely impossible to
the average man. Others, again depend
less on peculisrities of structure than ON
those of funtiop. When we come to
consider what, and how great, are the
deviRtions from the normal structure of
bones, joints, and muscles, We feel at oUce
the difficulty of defining precisely what
is normal. The range az individual yari-
alton Is wonderfully great. | have seen
human shoulder blades 50 diff aren't that
If they were the bones of unknown ami
mails sent for examination to Huxley's
scientific inhsbitant of Saturn, it Is high
ly probable that he would assign them TO
different species. To take more fsmIl-
lar illustration, it is well known that chill
dren differ greatly Ill their ability to turn
out their toes. Failure to do so does not
imply evkwar0ness, but oftel depends
solely on the shape of the bones of the
leg, which offers hindraDce which il Is
useless cruelty TO call on to the child to
overcome At once, though It may yield 70
lOng-continued treatment. Now, Just as
some children naturally turn out their
tees more than Others, 50 some can bend
their backs and twist themselves more
than Others, and in all likelihood the pri-
mary cause Is in both cases popularity
of structure, which may well have been
Increased aud accumulated By suitable
exercises, till In some cases the peculiar
ity has become so pronounced that 1t must
be called abnormal. Many curious ques-
tons are involved il this study, which sre
puzzles to ana -omists and surgeons as
well as to others. There are variOus points
OF little prsc zeal inpor sqce, vhic re
SO familiar that one is surprised TO find
cut hos little they are understood. One
of these l., what is the actual condition in

Our Cattle Interest.
The Prairie Farmer


The cattle interests of the United
States are depressed to that condition
that there is no longer profit. Over pro
ductlon is one cause of this state of the
market. The vast number of unem ploy-
ed IN our cities. is another. The attitude
OF humber of European uaGions in
placing undue restrictions upon meat
products, is std another cause. The
pr nclpal csus Dwever, is. VT out
DOUBT, combination Of the grsst capital
list packers, ;ogethertwith exhoIbit8nt
yardage fees, aud prices of feeding
material at the Stock Yards.
That the great packing interest: vir-
tOaily do, or may control the prices of
animals on the hoof, has long been more
than suspected. l. is true that any pIr-
eoh has an EQUAL chance 10 buy. but the
small butchers cannot compete with
these great firms in killing. It nov
taxes great capital TO successfully estab.
lIsh killing and packing plant. The
producers of cattle have long felt them
selves in the tolls Of the few great pack
ing establishments al Chicago and Kan
sas City, the two greatest live stock
markets IN the world, with Chicago as
headquarters.
Lately, the effect of meetings for relief
seems to have eliminated at Kansas CITY,
Mo-. IN the formation of a great com pany,
being representa- ives of the stock-rals-
ing interests of nearly all the great We
stock interests OF states and territories
west of The Mississippi. 1t was then de-
| clded TO incorporate a com nany to be
Known as the American Live 7ock Com
mission Com pany, with ca pital stock OF
| $4,000, and headquarters at Kansas
City and Chicago. The incorporates
will be Samuel Lazarus, of Texas, )
| Gregory, of illinois. and Nicholas I
| Eaton and Thomas r. Rugby, OF Kansas
| CITY. The ARTICLES of incorporation were
| ordered TO be filed at Springfield, Ill
March 2. The idea of the promoters OF
| this movement is to enable them to sell
| their stock at the highest price and with
| the least expense possible, and with that
end in view, headquarters will be estab
/ !isbed at Kansas City and Chicago, with
| branches at Wichita, KaDs., Fort Worth
Texas, and possibly Omaha, Neb., where
stock will be received ard SOLD on the COM
mission plan. The new COL. pany will not
| cOhdne its business co its members, but
| will receive stock from non members anC
will do general stock commission bust
| ness on large scale.
1t remains TO be seen whether this in
dependent company will be able TO raise
| the price Of beef to the producer. We
hope it will.

A GRUMBLING EMPIRE.
The Largest OF South African Native States
Falling TO Pieces.

The Largest OF South African Native States
Falling TO Pieces.
A great native empire III Africa has
been going to pieces within the past two
years, and is now the prey of all its enc
mics. 1t is the empire of the Muata
Yamvo, whose dominious have embraced
territory as large as Germany, and who
was heard of scores of years before any
white man visited Lunda, whose rulers
bear the title of Muata Ysmvo.
When the Congo Independent State
was formed it was at first intended 10
embrace in tie entire Congo basin, ex
cept thoes small parts of it which had
been appropriated by the French and
Portuguese, it was thought, however,
that the Muata Yamvo was too powerful
person to meddie with, aud it was
finally decided to let him alone. This is
the reason that the Congo STATE has such
peculiarly shaped southern frontier.
On the map it bears some resemblance to
a slice OF bread out of which an urchin
has bitten { large mou hful. The missing
chunk in the Muata Yamvo's empire.
1t was the pleasant custom of this
ruler not long ago to dispatch messen-
gers, sometimes hundreds of miles, to
chiefs who had incurred his ill will. The
messenger would hand a knife to tie
object of the emperor's wrath and init
mate that it was the royal will that he
Kill himself. No instance has until re
Gently been reported Of failure promptly
30 accom- plish this disagreeable duty.
But a while ago some of the big chiefs
be9a to put On independent airs, declined
o pay tribute any longer, and even Lad
to to kill NO "a
selves wnep their thoughtful master sent
then the knife. The troubles of the
Muata Yamvo began with the detection
of his powerful chiefs, and this spirit of
rebellion in Luda has encourage her
enemies to make forays into the country
for all they could find.
A little man, scarcely five feet high
has done more than any other person to
destroy the once famous Muata Yamvo
He is kangombe, the chief of the Luvale
country south of Lunda. Armed with
plenty of guns, his bands has swept like
q cloud of locusts far over Land for three
yeats past, returning home with lots of
ivory and thousands of slaves. while
ago Mr.. Arnot followed for several days
in the wake of Kangombe's victorious
army, and saw ali the horrors of warfare.
1t WAS six days after Ksrgombe's soldiers
had passed over the road, aud vet Arnot
found that some of his Victims who had
been left to perish we're still alive. Some
were tied to trees with bark cords, and
others were mutilated so they could not
walk.
The Muata Yamvo has sent armies to
fight Kangombe, but they had only native
weapons, and melted away before the
firearms of the enemy. And here cour-
ious fact may be mentioned. Weakened
by his many reverse5 and stripped of
much OF his territory, the Muata Yamvo
had excepted protectrate offered by
Portugal. And yet it is the munitions
of war that have poured into Portuguese
ports and been sold by Portuguese traders
to his enen rs thst have reduced the
Muata YamV to his present Impr0ver-
ished condition.
