WEDNESDAY, February 26, 1880. :
Receipts of cattle for the week were
little above so car loads, or about Is loads
more than last week. Fully three-fourths
of the offerings were from Chicago. There
was discovered diversity OF views among
drovers as to the superior quality of this
weeks run, some maintaining that there
was no improvement, others advancing the
opposite view. All agree, however, that
there has been no improvement in markets.
Last week Tuesdays markets showed an ad-
vance of 10 10 Is cents per hundred over the
opening of Monday morning. Last Monday
markets opened about the same as the previous
Monday and continue up to the present time
without any Improvement.
A few loads of prime Southern Ohio cattle
consigned to Needy according to reports,
brought SC and over in. retail way. There
were very few stockers and feeders in the offer
ings, but enough for all demands. as buyers for
this class of cattle were few. About all the
buyers on hand were buying for local trade, or
on orders from nearby points. Veal calves
were in liberal supply and fair demand Big
calves were slow sale at a range of 29Sc per
pound. Rough, heavy calves, according to the
getting sufficiency of milk to make them
marketable. Said he: THE milk which is
needed to make good veal is largely consumed
HOuSeuOlu purposes, 1u6 ely
it, and the result is seen in the many large
bony calves which come to our markets and are
hard to give away"
There was a fair supply of fresh cows, but
the bulk were common stock and markets were
slow.
Sheep, Lambs aud Swine.
The run for the week has been light and
markets strong at last weeks prices. Very
choice punches of sheep were sold at shade
higher prices than last week. There was not
the same advance in lambs. The latter proved
rather slow at last weeks prices. Butchers say
that prices are too high for profit to them for
few weeks past and that it is only to keep up
their regular line of meat and supply the wants
of customers that they handle mutton at pres
ent prices.
Receipts of hogs were light all the week.
Markets opened slow on Monday, but since
then there has been some improvement. A
few selected hogs sold this morning at 81 40,
which was 10c better than anything brought at
the beginning of the week. Owing to the light
run and generally low quality of hogs received
in this market of late. number Of the old
time buyers have been going to Chicago for
their supplies The outside price at Chicago
this morning was 81 O5, and the same grade at

BOLD ROBBERS.
Who Enter Stores and Remove Goods
With a Team.

Two bold robberies were COM
mitted at Bloomsbury, Tuesday
night on the main thoroughfare, by
burglars who used wagon. While
many people were still on the streets
two men driving a team stopped in
front of j. K. Pennsyl's store, on
Main street. One entered it with
out exciting suspicion. One of the
men sat on the wagon while the
other went through the store. When
he was about ready to come out the
second man got down from the wag-
on and assisted his companion to
put several large bundles in the
wagon, after which they drove off,
leaving the door open. When Mr..
Pensyl arrived he found his place
minus large quantity of shoes and
clothing, amounting to several huns
dred dollars. The robbers then
drove to Catawissa, where they en-
tered the store of Martin Swank in a
similar manner and carried off a
large quantity of merchandise, be-
sides tapping the till, which con-
tanned about $25. Not being sus-
pected they were not noticed closes
ly enough for Identification, so there
is no clue.

Hints Worth Heedina.


When man has his business in
perfect working order, and knows
that, just then, little more or g
little less effort on his part will be
answered by increased or decreased
profits, it is hard for him to believe
it wise for him to leave his duties
for an hour, even though he is over
worked. But one of the highest
duties man owes himself is to give
his brain an occasional rest. There
is good deal more in life than
simply adding TO ones bank account
There is more honor in being a
good citizen than in simply grow
ing rich. 1t is poor policy to be
thoroughly posted in all that con.
Germs your business and be out OF
all knowledge of the great world
A. man wants to forget his business
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS never to carry
his cares beyond his store door. A
nights reptile from business cares
will send you back to them with re-
newed strength and clearer head,
Do not imagine that your business
will go to the dogs if you leave it
for a day or two. If you have been
thorough with your men-if you
have faithful and interested en-
ployees-the machine will jog along
smoothly enough until you return.
We are all apt to flatter ourselves
that we are doing what no other
person could do; but, not frequently
something happens to show us that
we are not nearly as indispensable
us we imagined-in fact, that q
division OF labor in our business
would be vastly to It's advantage
Our subordluates, if left in charge
occasionally will have chance to
carry out some ideas of their own
and these, in a majority of cases, are
decided improvements, The man
who repulses suggestions from those
under him-gives his men no credit
for knowing anything beyond the
steady routine of their employment
loses much that would be of as
sistance to him. falls into rut anG
/ stays there, much to his detriment
The man who cannot learn some
thing from contact with contac'
with other men, whether employees
or outsiders, is not healthy man.
Business is master that soor
makes abject slaves OF us if we will
but, with well established trade
one should be master of his business
With probity, industry, and econo
my, almost any man, by well di
rected effort, may be prosperous
! Whatever progress is made withou
this foundation is deceptive.

In one of his speeches in Phila-
delphia last week our candidate for
Governor GEORGE W. DELAMATER
said:
"This is as important a contest as
any before the people since 1860.
We feel that full discussion should
be had. The other side brush aside
the question of protection-the
question of fair ballot through the
Federal elections law and the ques-
tion of providing for the soldier who
fought for the Union, and they turn
to slander. They say these ques-
tions are not now important. | say
they are important. The great Re
publican State of Pennsylvania elects
not only a Governor, Lieutenant
Governor, and Secretary of Inter
national Affairs, but congressman
and members of the Legislature,
who in turn will elect a United
States Senator. The question is,
will Pennsylvania continue the policy
of protection, honest elections, and
care for the old soldier? Applause
and cries of"We will -
| glory in the material welfare OF
! the people, but glory more in the
American manhood and womanhood
that l see around me everywhere,
Its high standard is due two things;
first, the system of education, and
second, to the protective system
which enable laboring men to edu
cate their children, live comfortably
and lay aside little for rainy day
Against these issues we have Grover
Cleveland leading the Democracy
Kisses. The battle of 1888 was
fought on these principles, and
thank God that ! see no sign of i,
Ealing in this contest"
