He was accompanied by Colonel La

went down the bay five miles and cast
anchor of Wings Neck, The members
fished several hours, their catch being
soup, tautog and bass. AS they were
returning under full sail, with a strong
southwesterly breeze, they we're hailed
by some newspaper men in another
boat. "What luck to.day2' was asked,
Fairly good" came the reply. The
President was gone as long as usual and
arrived at the wharf soon after 4 O. clock.
When 1t was time to land the President
came out Of tho cabin in his shirt
sleeves and putting on his coat was all
ready to step ashore. Col. Lamont was
the first to land, followed by the Presi'
dent and DR.. Bryant.
Mr.. Cleveland jumped onto the float
ing wharf with considerable agility,land
walked up the pathway 10 Gray Gables
without any assistance. His step was
more steady than when he started this
morning, and he walked faster. Mrs.
Cleveland met the party at the wharf,

A DANGEROUS nUILpINa.


That the building was known to be
dangerous FIRE trap by the company
controlling it there can be no
doubt A few weeks ago Marshal
Murphy inspected 1t and re-
ported it to be extremely unsafe.
On account OF his report tho
insurance companies who had taken
risks ON the structure cancelled them,
so there was no insurance on 1t at all.
Some one said the council OF adrhinis-
tration. had been advised that the con-
struction OF the tower In closing the
smokestack, was hazardous.
President Higinbothan said he never
heard Of any such notice. "In fact,
he said, ~ did not know until / was
told to-day that any danger was Mt
tached to the use OF chemicals In rc-
irigerating processes. The plans for
the construction OF tho building were
submitted TO the department OF works,
Just as all the building plans were,
and so far as know they
was approved The council oil adminis-
tralion has never been advised OF any
danger OF any kind from tho building
or II would have taken action to fore
stall such q calamity. Its an awful
thing, 80 fearful that would rather not
say anything until We know the full
extent OF IT,"
Commissibnor Massey, OF the council
OF administration, confirmed MIR. Higin-
bolham's declaration that the council
had no intimation Of danger from tho
cold storage plant.

SChwsrzchild & Sulzberger have sgain

The large packing houses have their

train load to the east.
Al Gillespie & Co. offer liberal sd.
vsnces to those who wish to feed or hold
stock for this market. They furnish the
ADVOCATE free to customers who ask it..
There seems to be no let up in the
demand for stockers and feeders. No

sent to the country in q single day last

trouble in getting $50 per hundred

steers that averaged 1892 pounds. They
were thoroughly good and sold at %
cents higher than any other cattle.
Hardly q day passes but some new
evidence Of the steady growth and reach
ing out Of the trade at the yards is not
had. A train load Of sheep came in
from Utah Friday. Mr.. Charles Nc
Carly, who was in charge Of the ship
ment, was so well pleased with the Kan
sas City market that he sold here in
stead Of going to Chicago; 289 averaging
1o3 pounds sold at So per hundred
weight; 416 averaging 102 pounds sold ct
1910; 906 averaging 112 pounds sold at
So 20, and 21S lambs averaging 63pounds
sold at 1916
A comparison Of this years cattle re-
ceipts at Kansas City with those Of
former years reveals some remarkable
facts. Over 100000 cattle have arrived
at the stock yards since the present year
began. In no previous twelve months
has this record been equalled. During
the whole Of 1892 the receipts amounted
to but 1,479079 head. In 1891 the ar
rivals were but 1,270917. The record Of
1890 shows receipts of 1,472,229; that OF
1889 is !, ,22O,34S and the figures for 1888
are 1,O56,OS6. Rsceipts for the three
years last mentioned include calves.
Cattle are still coming 10 this market in
large numbers, and tbe indications point
to grand total Of 100000 for the year.
In no previous year have the receipts
been better hsndled than Ia that oe 1893.

chicks were only few days old, and
when / went to look at them in the
morning the lamps were both out and
most of the chicks chilled 30 that they
did not get over it. In the first batch
there were probably between forty and
fifty eggs holding birds ready to come
out, but ell dead. I wrote the maker Of
the incubator as to the probable cause,
and he replied that it was for want Of
moisture, although there were two pans
Of water above the eggs. At the last
hatch put shallow pan Of water under
each egg tray on the eighteenth day,
and there were fewer dead birds.
The chicks were fed first on the infer
tile eggs boiled and chopped up fine;
then we mixed up cornmesl and bran
with milk, baked the mixture and
crumbled it up and fed it dry. After the
first week they had small wheat and
cracked corn-in fact, anything they
would eat. Finely ground bone is q
valuable addition to the bill Of fare. In
this connection it may be we'll to men
tion that one of the best incnbstors on
the market is "The Sunfower," shown

HOW TO RUN AN INCUBATOR.
The Manager Of Homestead Poultry Farm
Tells His RxperienOe,

After trying two years to raise chick
ems under hens without success, we con-
cluded to try an incubator, and it worked
80 well that we want mo- more Matching
under hens. The incubator was ordered
in March, but did not arrive until April.
Then it was three weeks more before we
could get it to work properly. After
getting it thoroughly heated the eggs
were put in. AS I had never had any
experience with q machine before-in
fact, this was the first I had ever seen
/ was doubtful as to results of the first
hatch, but made up my mind to give it
all the care and attention I possibly
could. / Watched it pretty closely night
and day and did not get good nights
rest for the three weeks the eggs were
Matching. The result was that I took
$50 chicks out Of the incubator from 320
eggs. I put them in the brooder and
succeeded in raising most Of them. Al
though it was late, concluded that /
would try it again, putting in 300 eggs.
This time, as I knew more about run
ming the machine, [ did not attend to it
or watch it so closely. I regulated it
night and morning when filling the
lamp and turning the eggs. did not
lose wink of sleep this time. Still /
got 225 chicks from 250 fertile eggs. I
did not have such good luck raising this
lot as the first, for something went
wrong with the brooder lamps when the

The capacity Of the market is keeping
pace with the growth Of receipts. Kan
sas City is more fsvorably located than
any other market in The United States,
and the day 10 not very far in the future
when more cattle will come here than
to any other point.
