body was held yesterday afternoon. The

Sheriff Simmons's little feed bill
was the first matter showed
under the noses OF the commission
ers They evidently smelied this
beef and butter battle afar off and came
cooked and primed. A majority OF the
members thought the day too beautiful
to be interspersed with prison beef and
butter, therefore the matter Of grading
the sherltf's bill by the fluctuations Of
the market was deferred until Tuesday.
Then If the beef and butter market is
high the feed bill will be showed through
with nlacrity. Should the market be
sluggish and quotations on beef and
butter range low, the bill will lie over
to await the comiJg Of high butter
