KANSAS CITY STOCK YARD NOTES

KANSAS C1I4 SIUCh YARD NUIES
The Stock Yards Company is making
very extensive improvements, as was
necessary to accommodate the immense
increase of business. When the build
ing now under course of construction ia
completed it will make the stock yards
one of the most interesting sights for
the attraction Of visitors to Kansas City.
Jones Bros. sent 100 feeders to the
country last week, and G. l. Gam sent
125.
G.. l. Gam sold the top cattle last week
at $470; average weight 1897.
The Chicago Live Stock Company
sold sixty cars Of hogs last week. This
firm does an immense business in CHI.
esgo, also.
The Kansas Live Stock Sanitary
Board is in Mexico inspecting cattle.
The Board inspected 99,5OO head of
feeders last month and 5000 this month,
all Of which were sold to Kansas men.
Mr.. Waugh, of Eskridge, Kas, has
made quite a record at feeding Texas
cattle. He fed 500 that cost him s23 and
sold them at $48 per head. They brought
from $3.50 to $3.50 per hundred, and
were handled at the market by Hale &
Mcintosh.
The Lone Star Commission Company
will have two train-loads of Western
cattle in one shipment during the week.
This firm is doing an excellent business,
and has the confidence Of it's customers.
Ben L. Welch is determined to be at
the front when it comes to footing up
sales. He is doing thriving business.
The total cattle receipts last week
were 80 carloads, which is less than
any other week during the year.
The packing houses ran up the price
Of hogs last week, and are not satisfied
yet.
From January l, 1895, to October 81,
there were 84,415 carloads of stock
shipped into the Kansas City market; at
least that many cars, either filed or
partly filled, came in.
The Rogers Commission Company say
the future on fat cattle does not look en-
couraging, and we must look for barely
steady markets until the anxious ship
per has marketed his stock; then prices
will advance. Will some kind friend
please tell when that will be?
Stock cattle will be at a premium in
the spring markets. The future for
hogs is OK.
Billy Rogers wants you to send for his
receipt for making Eat cattle. Anybody

HE LOST THE GIRL.
But Got a Satisfactory Dig at His Rival
Before He Died.

He and her father were great friends.
AS only four persons figure in this story
it is unnecessary to mention names. He
had rival for her affections, and her
father could never understand why sho
preferred the rival to him. One day
when he sat OH the porch chatting with
her father she called him into the par
Tor and told him frankly that she had
promised to marry his rival He did
not plead or beg. He kissed her hand
with sort Of reverence, and then re-
turned to his scat OH the porch and re-
newed the conversation with her father
In those few moments everything seemed
to have changed for him. The sun did
not shine as brightly; the birds did not
sing as they did before. Even the grass
and trees seemed scar and dead. He had
expected what he had just heard, but
that did not seem to abate the shock.
He was distract and moody. Her father
saw this and asked him the cause He
blurted out tho whole miserable truth.
Her father continued to polish his
glasses carefully and then said:
"Wimmen folks is mighty onsartin
critters. - Her father said nothing more,
but nothing would change her mind.
Gradually it came TO be generally
known that he had been rejected, and
that his rival was the fortunate wooer.
They, no and his rival, were alumni of
the same college. He was down for a
speech mt the alumni dinner A month
before he had attended her wedding
No ono ever heard him complain though
all knew how he suffered He was
looked upon us the orator of his class,
and great speech was expected. When
he arose, a sinister glitter could be seen
i'll his eye. He began to speak slowly
He took as his text Acquired Tastes -"
He spoke as length. Finally he said:
II called upon dear friend some
time ago who had just had daughter
married. He felt his loss very kconly,
