TO go over the horns, now bore hole
horizontally through each horn just In
front of the rings, large enough for good
wire to 90 through and through; insert
wire key or small iron rod, bend the ends
on outside of horns. Get Jap link and
fasten the other ends In the ring IN the
nose. Make them short enough so the
nose will be drawn up straight. Get
plank six or eight inches wide and long
enough to extend two inches on each side
of his eyes, bore holes in planKs and
fasten with wire over his eyes to or
around the rings on his horns, and your
bull will be rs docile as q horse. When
he tries to push fence or gate the board
resting on these chains will tighten them
so as to make the ring in them give him
pain, and after one or two trials he will
cease all attempts to break any kind of
fence or gate. The board does not iu-

The Condition Of the Cattle Market as
Bad as 1t Could Well Be.
No Prospects Of an Improvement soon-Cat-
tlemen Advised to Hold Their Beeyes
Baek-General Livestock News.

At st. Louis, Kansas City and Chicago
the cattle market is badly demoralized
and prices are down to sickening points.
Thursday there were 20, 900 cattle on
the Chicago market and 5000 at ST.
Louis. Friday there were y, 900 at
Chicago and 5000 at st. Louis with best
prices at about sixty cents below those Of
last week. The cause of this IS no doubt
the failure of crops In the breeding
states where large numbers of Texas,
Arizona and New Mexico cattle had been
shipped TO feed. These cattle have been
and are now being rushed to the markets
by the holders who appreciate the situa-
ton and know that corn will be so high
next winter that they cannot feed cattle
at a profit.
The outlook for the rest of 1890 is not
good in fact is anything else. Feeding
states, on account of the failure of the
corn crop, cannot hold cattle over until
next spring, and the result is a rush to
the markets at time when beef is in
less demand than at any other period IN
the year. Commission men aud pro-
ducers report the situation as gloomy
and kilograms from the markets are all
urging that all cattle that can be held
back should not be put on the market.
number of cattlsmen in this section
who have been intending to ship some
are now hesitating, and unless there is
an improvement they will hold their cat
tie at home.

To Prevent Horse Stealing.

A very stringent law is proposed in
Russia to prevent horse stealing, which
might be copied IN this country. 1t pro-
poses that every owner of a horse must
take a certificate from the police or from
the authorities of his rural district at
testing his rightful ownership. If a
horse is sold, this certificate must be
produced and transferred to the name of
the purchaser. The one who sells
horse is to be held responsible for its
good condition, and he must return the
purchase money aud pay fine If he de-
cieves the buyer in the representations of
Its age or health. II a diseased animal
is sold and infects the purchasers stock
the seller must pay all damages and be
tried before q criminal court. The GER
tificate part of this law he's often been
proposed as an effectual method OF stop
ping ringing.

Cattle shipments Abroad.

Advices from England state that the
shipments of Canadian cattle to Scotland
are increasing, and that contracts have
been made for the transportation of
several thousand head this fall. The
Canadians are making great efforts to
secure q commanding share of the cattle
trade, and are in a favorable position
for doing SO by the ease with which they
are able to secure steamer accommoda-
tion. The virtual embargo which has
been placed on American cattle Is also
factor in their favor of no small moment.
Secretary Rusk is endeavoring to have it
removed, but it Is unfortunate that he
should be compelled to act at time
when the Mckinley tariff bill Is being so
thoroughly discussed not only in Great
Britain but all over Europe.

HOLD YOUR CATTLE.
No Improvement in Prices Looked for This
Year.

No Improvement in Prices Looked for This
Year.
Mr.. Ike T. Pryor, one of the best
city yesterday, having just came down
from Kansas and the Indian Territory,
where he has considerable cattle inter-
ests. When asked about the cattle sit
uation by a GAZETTE reporter he said 1t
was not good by any means, and he did
not look for much, If any, improvement
this year.
'tThe fact of the matter is he said,
Hcrops in Kansas and the principal feed
ing states are failures, and this is going
to have decided effect on the prices of
cattle. Large numbers of cattle for
feeders have been shipped to Kansas
from Texas, Arizona and New
Mexico, nd as there will be no
corn in Kansas to feed these
cattle during the coming winter they are
being rushed to the markets. It is this
that is now depressing the market, and it
will continue to depress the market dur
ing this year. l do not hope for any i'm
provement until next spring. Then be-
lieve prices for beef cattle will show de-
cided Improvement, and l would advise
all cattlemen who can do so to hold back
their stock. To ship them now Is simply
TO sacrifice them. l believe there will be
good times for the cattlemen next year,
but none until then. -
When asked about the refrigerators-
what the prospect was since Col. Stat
ford IS death-Mr. Pryor said:
81 think they are all right. Mrs.
Stafford has said that it is her desire to
carry out, IS far as possible, the wishes
and plane of her husband, and is ready
TO turn over the refrigerator property
of Col Stafford to the company at a
fair valuation. She will not operate the
plant herself, and it will certainly be to
the interest of the estate to dispose of 1t
at reasonable prices.
Mr. Pryor is expecting to meet parties
interested in the refrigerator scheme
shortly when he expects something def
mite will be evolved.

A BIT OF ROMANCE.
How Kansas city Girl Was saved From a
Terrible Fate-About to Wed Negro

How a Kansas city Girl Was Saved From q
Terrible Fate-About to Wed Negro
Special to the Gazette.
KANSAS CITY, NO., Aug Some
what back from the winding wagon road
which leads of Grand avenue near Thir-
teenth street, at which point it stretches
away to the west and overIooks the city +,
there stands a plain little cottage. Trees
tower above IT, and removed from the
smoke and turmoil of the city its frame
walls shine as white in the sunlight as
those of country farm house. 1t has q
remarkable romance, though its windows
are covered with dust and its rooms are
tenantless.
Three manths ago q man Of middle age
applied for the rental of the house to its
owner, George E. Morrison who lives
near by. Shortly after the new tenant
took possession the neighbors noticed
that he was a man OF good address and
considerable fashion. Every evening
carriage called at his door and he went
out riding. He rapidly became &C.
quninted among the best families in the
vicinity and especially with that of
wealthy contractor who has a charming
young daughter. 1t was not long until
the evening drives were MADE II COM
pany with this young lady.
The man gave his name as Pierre Mon
well and spoke with slight French ac-
cent. He said he was from Paris and in
the lost nobility was q count. The fancy
which he conceived for the contractors
daughter was returned and soon they
were engaged to wed. Monwell said he
was West for recreation and health and
showed remarkably good letters of credit
from French banks. He said he In
tended to make this city his home after
he was married.
About week before the day set for
the wedding Monwell disappeared. In
the parlor of his little cottage he left
note bidding farewell forever to his in
tended bride and sum of money suffi-
cIeut to meet the next months rent.
The letter told a story OF singular career
and read as follows:
MY RELovED-I was born in Paris. I I'm
Fronchman but there is African blood in my
veins. tell you this and leave you because
1 have been followed by enemies who would
have revealed all. had hoped to bury my
identity and live happily with you in this free
ana good country but il is now impossible. 1t
is true am rich, but l have deceived you in
many things. To look at me none would think
L am a negro, yet il is true. l shall not be dis
content with my lot although am forced to be an
exile from my country. I am outawed. On
the last of October in 1883, IN a duel, shot
down an old classmate. and when 1 fed the
country he was hanging between life and death.
He or his friends have pursued me and 1 have
been compelled to abandon my project, perhaps
to our mutual advantage.
PIERRE MoEwELL.
Little stock Is taken in Monwell's let
ter. 1t is believed that he is an adven-
turer of the most accomplished kind and
that through some chance his plans
failed. The young lady who figures in
the story was SO overcome with grief
that for some time it was feared she
would lose her reason.

Cattle IN New York.

The Farmers Journal and Livestock
Review, published at Buffalo. n. Y.
speaking of the local livestock market
says: 'This week was a 'corker' on
the statesmen in the cattle yards. The
very heavy supply of sale cattle was I'M
expected in view of the reports sent out
generally of a prospective decline in
prices, and when they came to look over
the yards 1t added to the toughness of
the prospects. All things considered,
the market held up we'll, but should the
run of this common stuff continue in as
large supply as this week, it will have to
go at very low figures, much lower than
the notch struck this week, and from all
that we can gather from the shippers
coming here, there is bound to be lots of
it, unless large sections of Ohio, Indiana
and Michigan are oopiously wet down,
and that right away, as the farmers are
running about as short of feed as they
are of money, and their cattle have got
to go TO some market and be sold. -
