is not in practice among the natives. Nor can
slavery exist without slave trade. The worst
horrors OF the traifc, however do not appear in
TIE local trade. They are enacted IN the ex-

dued parts of the Congo state, where the Ma
Kioko and other tribes raid the slave. they
bring to the coast. Ii is then that villages are
attacked. burnt, sacked and the human docks
driven 70 the slave markets, many dying on the
road. while others are used as beasts Of burden

Daring Henri cite.

What debt do the society people of

erstwhiie were running hither and thither
| like mess of ants, after some wicked boy
has plugged up their nest. never knowing
where We belonged, knocking against each
other in our pussy wants corner" en-
deavor to find our proper sphere. But
HenrieCte has settled all this. She got up
little earlier than usual one morning,
| doing the dishes and sweeping the hearth
tidily, and finding by the little brass
| ticker, just over the broad, low fireplace,
that she still had a few moments to spare,
IRE she disrobed the potato of his jacket
against the Dooptide meal, she sat down
and fixed it all up
For some time the fip-fo state of soci-
ETY. bad been affecting Henriette as doth
the first fly of the season the expectant
housewife. But, now, it's off her mind.
But there is one thing that I think
Henrietta forgot, and am sure she will
feel grateful to me for suggesting that
each society lady cut out the names of her
special clique and paste them just above
the washtub or around the axe handle, in
order that she may not forget and turn up
her lose at members OF her own set.
Thirdly, some of US might feel hurt at
being classed with the Older
married people, when we see
prancing around upon the younger
list in the EAGLE, those who were married
twenty years before we had beau.
But Henriette 5 political diplomacy tides
her over by saying: 1.-The older set has
the precedence, while she herself belongs
to the younger one"
And, lastly, word to the dear brethren
and sisters. who have prehaps fondly
dreamed that they were-but alas, were

But to return to the dear "sisteren."
please allow me to suggest that there is
still hope. Do not despair; do not throw
yourselves from the Dougles avenue
bridge (for the river is dry.) If you are
driven to drown yourselves in the sewer

THE STOCK YARDS

The business the past week was some
thing remarkable. After state of leth.
argy of about six weeks the old time vigor
came back this week, and there wss bust
ness everywhere. The cattle receipts have
been increased, and a good cattle market
vas maintained all week.
There has been marked improvement
in the condition of the hog market the
past week. Both the Whitaker and Dold
packing houses have been willing buyers
and, although receipts have been compar-
atively liberal, fully double the number
would not have exceeded the demand Iu
the prices there has been but little f1uctu-
alton all the week, and yesterday at the
close of the week prices were almost the
same as one week ago. Twelve TO fifteen
hundred hogs per day are needed to meet
the wants OF our packers, and this num-
Der will find ready sale at advantageous
prices, compared with other markets. The
shippers need not he afraid to ship their
hogs 10 the Wichita market now.

ODDS AND ENDS.

Drs. Jones and Allen received two letters
yesterday duly stamped and post marked
at Wellington which, upon being opened,
were found empty. They have no idea
who the writer is or what his object was.
The fire department WAS called out yes
terday afternoon to extinguish burning
barn at Topeka avenue and Lewis street.
They responded promptly and while
driving there one of the horses fell but did
not sustain any serious injury.
A young husband called on DIR. Jones a
few nights ago to get him to put his head
together, the same having been split open
in several places by an amiable wife and
her little Ratchet. When he reached the
doctors Office he was literally covered
with blood, and yet the couple have been
seen kissing and hugging as loving as the
the proverbial doves since.
