The concert given at Tomlinson Hall last
night by the local Musicians Union, for the
benefit of the unemployed of the city, was
of unusual excellence in every respect, and
both from it's merits and the cause for
which ii was undertaken should have had
a better patronage. The audience numbered
about 500 persons, and while they did not
appear to fill the hall in point of numbers,
the applause was not lacking in volume
The hall had been tastefully decorated and
from the bell suspended since the Flower
Mission from the center of the ceiling, e. re

HOME BUILDERS.
The Views of +. T. McWhirter on the
Subject Given the Progress Club.

Home Builders" was the subject dis
cussed before the Progress Club yesterday
afternoon, and the speaker was +. T. Me-
Whittier. He had an expanse OF ideas so
broad that in the course of the speech.
which occupied the full hour. he had tread
upon the toes OF majority of those pres
ent. He aroused the forensic ire of the
partisan with his prohibition, the skeptic
with his church advocacy and the champion
OF unrestrained energy by his favoring an
income tax He outlined the objects of
home to be the physical, intellectual and
moral development OF the race. The home
builders within the family circle were
father, mother and children; the builders
without the family circle We're the church
school and state. The despoilers OF the
home were the oppressive usur6r, monOpO-
list and the liquor traffic. The remedy pro-
posed to counterfeit the influence of the
home deSpoilerS was organization, TO tie
end OF securing equal suffrage, an income
tax government ownership OF railroads and
telegraphs and prohibition of the liquor
traffic.

HOGS WILL BE ASSORTED.
Stock Yards Commission Men Rescind
Their Former Action.

Recently a meeting OF the commission
men was held at the stocSyards and an
order passed which practically did away
with the assortment of carload lots OF hogs.
This order would have gone into effect TO-
day. Since that time the commission men.
have discussed the matter pro and con.
and the conclusion was almost unanimously
reached that "a serious blunder had been
made. The new order. If effective. would
practically shut out all buyers from distant
cities and would leave the hog market in
a dsInoralized condition City buyers would
have this market all TO themselves. with
little or no competition. This would have
q tendency TO drive shippers 10 other points
with their hog product and ruin the market
here. A meeting was held Saturday and
the former action was rescinde1. The effect
OF this will be that hogs viii be assorted
and sold as heretofore.
