WeighfOf Cattle.

In the year 17I0 the weight of fat cattle
in the London market averaged only $40
pounds. This, too, at the average age of
five years, prior to which time they were
not considered marketable. In 1925 this
average weight had increased to nearly 4s2
pounds. In 1890. 1O5 years later, the aver
age weight of cattle sold on the London
market was $50, almost twice what it
was in 171O, and at the same time the
average age at which such beasts were
sold was only years, as against years at
an earlier date.
We have no statistics which show ex-
actly the average weight of the fat cattle
of to-day, but believe that we are not far
from the truth when we say that it is at
least twice what ii was in 1890, and up
wards of four times greater thar it was In
I7I0.

New York Fashion Notes

Fancy waists are again very popular for
Spring and Summer wear and even
some costumes are sent from the modiste
with one or two extra waists.
They are more often made in the style of
Louis NV and NNI. Such coats are very
elegant. made of brOcade or satin with lace
jabOt or ruffleS and with handsome waist
coats. Many of these waists are made
with flOwered taffeta sleeves. The new
sleeves are smaller, dropping or trimmed
with ruffieS and puffs. The favorite cOIOrs
of the Spring are tones of green. hello
trOpe, light brown and gray. All new
French skirts are decidedly smaller. the
average width being five and p half wards,
many of them beingNe much les than five.
The front and sides hdve an easy fuIInesS.
with the gathers or pieats clustered
IN the back. Silk Innings in bright colors
are most attractive. AT many of the
Spring expositions of gowns. the new capeS
attr act the most attention on account of
the richness of material and the novelties

that the father was wanted at home and
that he would work in his stead during his
absence. Harry took his fathers place
and Robert Burgoon went home to help
look after his sick child.

COIN HARVEY CALLED Down.

Sioux City Journals The editor Of The
Omaha Bee has not yet received a cbecl,
for 500 from Coin" Harvey. which shows
that one must not believe everything pub
lie speaker says when seeking notorlety.
Kansas City Times: The covardice of
Coin Harvey In making statements about
the newspapers and then refusing to debate
them with an editor who called him down
entities him 10 the contempt Of every decent
citizen. He lied. He knew he lied. And
when he was told he lied he meekly swal-
lowed 1t.
Milwaukee Sentinel: Coin Harvey has met
a rebufr out in Nebraska. lie offered 500
TO anybody who could find word about the
reconciliation act In any newspaper pub
lished any date in February, 1873. Mr.
RoScwater Of The Omaha Bee has shown
Mr.. Harvey that The Bees press reports CON
tained an account of the proceedings in con-
gress and the progress Of the demonetization
bill.
st. Paul Pioneer Press: Very cleyerly did
Editor Rosewater OF The Omaha Bee diacon-
cert the loquacious "Coin" Harvey by show
ing that The Bee Of February, 1873, contained
accounts of the proceedings whereby silver
was ''demonetized." Harvey had offered to
give 500 to any person who could find a
word published in any paper on that subject
that month 1t would, Of course. be imposyi-
BILE for Harvey to keep his word, for the
money required would be large enough in
"ihuuHI W HlOlt (udu bankrupt not only MINI
self, but all his admirers. This is a good
specimen Of the marner in which Coins"
challenges always result.
Minneapolis Tribune: Coin Harveys
standing bluf of 500 for a copy Of any news
paper that published anything at the time
about the so-called demonetzation of silver
in 1873 was neatly called by Editor Rose
water Of The Omaha Bee, who produced a
copy of his files of that date showing a full
account of the legislation in the dispatches
If The Bee published all OF 1t, all the As
ISOLATED press papers must have done the
same. Harvey's idea was to prove his al
legation that the legislation of 1873 was put
through secretly and in pursuance of Con
spiracy"--but the fact appears TO be that It
received the same publicity that other cur
rent legislation did then and always has re-
ceived.
Cedar Rapids Republican: Coin" Harvey
thought by stroke of bravado to get people
to believe his threadbare lie about the "crime
OF 1879 at Omaha the other night He
Hourished his arms and pounded on the desk
and shouted: Silver was demonetzad Febru-
airy 2S, 1873 | now offer reward of 500 to
any man or woman who will find word about
1t In any newspaper published In the month
of February, 1873" Editor Rosewater claims
the money, a full account of the proceedings
being found in the files of The Bee in Feb
ruary, 1873. 1t has been shown time and
again that this charge of stealth is false
Hon. j. w. Rich proved this most ccuclu-
sively in the Republican about year ago
1t has been proven a thousand times and
yet these silver advocates continue to assert
the contrary with the same unblushing eff
frontery with which they claim jefferson
and jackson as fathers of their dishonest
theory
