municipal abattoirs and cattle mar
kets is now the rule, rather than the
exception in the leading towns of Ger
many and that it is by no means con-
fined to the largest places. The Ber-
lin cattle market, unlike the slaughter
houses, is allowed to earn profits, and
it easily pays q net sum OF half mill
lion marks q year into the city treas
ury. (Shaw's Municipal Government
in Europe, pages 1884,
THE PARIS MARKET.
Adjoining the huge abattoir are
the municipal cattle yards and mark
cts, with Accommodations for scores of
thousands of animals. Lately there
has been added a large establishment
called the Sanitarium, in which ami
mails subject for any reason to suspfc-
ion of infectious disease are held in
quarantine pending examination. The
cattle trade is admitted to the use of
the stock yards on payment of mod
crate fees, while all butchers in like
manner have access to the abattOirs
subject to proper regulations.
The average income from this source
has, for some years, been about 3 mil
lion francs, which is amply remunera-
tive. Shaw's Municipal Govern
ment in Europe. Page 100.
THE BUDAPEST MARKET. :
"The food supply of Budapest has
been brought under suitable public
control. The great municipal slaugh-
ter house is one of the establishments
in which the citizens take especial
pride. 1t is very imposing architec-
turally, is finely appointed, and as. a
public monopoly, is made to contrib
ute to the municipal Golfers while
serving sanitary end. Connected
with it are the public cattle markets
which well repay a visit on weekly
market days for their splendid herds
of long horned white oxenof Hunga-
ry and Servia. (Shaw's Municipal
Government in Europe, page 1861
THE MUNICH MARKET.
Munich, Germany, has established
ample cattle markets, (Shaw's Mu-
nieipal Government in Europe, page
342.)
THE LEEDS MARKET.
Leeds, England, has acquired at diff
fOrent times, all her markets, including
the cattle market, and has expended
vast amounts of money upon them.

tion, in a lesser way, to the Warship for
which the float was named.
The designer and builder of the ''To-
peka' float is Mr.. J. w. Morgan, a
member of the city council of Topeka
and foreman of the coach shops at the
Santa Fe Mr. Morgan has had expert
ence in early life on the Clyde with boat
building, and that knowledge stood him
in good stead on the present occasion.
His first work was to build a small
model of the present float from a pic
ture published in the State Journal.
With this sketch to start with Mr.. Mer-
gan proceeded to devote his spare hours
to the work He was permitted the use
of the machinery Of the Santa F'e and
a sign humorously attached by Mr.. John
Player, superintendent of machinery at
the Santa Fe, to the float, bearing the
inscription Built at the Santa Fe
docks, - tells the rest of the story.
Old sailors who have seen the float
say that it is a model piece of work and
would require but little additional labor
to make it a sea-going vessel.
The decorations comprising nearly
80 600 morning glories and tinsel work
were the efforts Of Mesdames Neil,
Wood, Galbraith, Lee, Hunter, Burdick
and Mattingly.
The christening did not take place at
the fair grounds this morning, as was
expected. It was deemed best to post
pone the exercises in order to allow the
float to be gotten up to the city. The
work of moving the ship is a 1aboriOus
one 1t requires seventeen men moving
on hands and knees under the float.

CHILEs' PLACE PULLED.
Police Raid It-Chiles Gives Bond
ana is Released.

The place of Nick Chiles on East Sew
enth street was raided last night by the
police. This was deemed so important
an arrest that the entire night force
was utilized for the occasion. No re-
sistance was offered to the officers,
however and the arrest and seizure of
two kegs of beer, some whisky and fix
lures was accomplished in perfect quiet.
There were several persons in the room
at the time, but none of them were
placed under arrest but Chiles. The
restaurant of Chiles adjoining was not
disturbed.
At the time ChiIes gave his personal
check for 5000 and was released. This
morning he called at the police station
and gave bond and redeemed his check.
William Stewart, a deputy sheriff, went
on the bond with Chiles. Chiles was
also arrested on a warrant charging
him with being the proprietor of the
joint pulled yesterday under the express
office. He gave a similar bond in this
case with the same signer. Both cases
will be heard on Monday.
The Chiles place is running wide open
this morning and Nick invites all at
the counter to ''pass back" He explains
that he is still dispensing hop tea"

firebrands and the people were running
in every direction panic-stricken with
horror.
Two freight trains standing here took
about 200 people to Shell Lake and hun
dreds more sought the western lake
shore for safety. Meanwhile the vOluu-
teer fire department did heroic work in
trying to save the business portion OF

OLD SOLDIERS 5000.
Other Visitors at the Fall Festival
Number About 10000

AS near as the assignment committee
can estimate there were a little over 5000
old soldiers in attendance at the reunion.
There were more than that many people
in camp, but many of them were not old
soldiers, although they belonged to their
families. There were enough veterans in
the city, however to more than bring the
number up to 1900. Many of these came
in their own cOnveyances, and can not be
estimated in the crowds which have come
by rail. 1t is estimated that there are at
least 20, 600 other visitors here today.
