CATTLE SCARCE IN MEM CO.
Great Herds of the Republic Reduced

Great Herds of the Republic Reduced
Within the Last Two Yea rs.
From the Omaha World-Herald: The,
astonishing announcement is now
made that Mexico is almost without
cattle. This surprising state of af-
fairs is due to the tremendous demand
for Mexican beef that began almost ex-
actly two years ago and has resulted
In cutting down to very small num-
Ders the seemingly ineXhaustible herds
OF northern Mexico. The state of Chi
huahua and Sonora alone have been
shipping to Cuba from 5000 to- 5000
head of cattle a month That is why
the Cuban rebellion has lined the
pockets of the Mexican stOckmen with
gold. It is singular, indeed, when one
stops to consider, that Mexico, which
so cruelty felt the iron hand Of Spain
centuries ago, should in these modern
days furnish food in vast quantities
for the enemies of the descendants of
Cortez. During the last twelve months,
also, the movement of live stock from
Mexico to the United States has be-
come unusual. The demand has gone
on undated, and still exists. 1t is ap-
parent, therefore, that the Mexican
cattlemen have realized handsomely
from this product of their ranches; in
fact, majority of them have practic-
ally exhausted their herds The great
er portion of Mexican live stock bound
for the United States passes through
Ell PasO, Texas, and Nogales, AriZ., to
the western markets where the pack
ing houses are located, Kansas City
taking a greater number than any
other place. Even in California there is
demand for Mexican beef, because
of the fact that ranchmen there hast
ened to dispose of their herds in east
ern markets, thereby diminishing the
supply for home consumption. The ex-
tent of the exports can best be ap-
preciated when the figures are con-
sidered. During the last quarter of
1897 the total value of cattle that came
into the United States was $222,522,
and this, too, regardless of the fact
that the duty upon cattle imported
from Mexico is about SO per head All
these cattle are of low grade and the
beef they make is far from being equal
to the American product. The result,
which might have been expected, is
that in Mexico the price of beef has
risen to unheard of figures, and the
Mexicans are likely to be in the posi-
ton of the miner who sold the only
tent In the camp for big price, for
getting that after he parted from it
he would have to sleep out of doors.

Woman's Reply to a Message from Her
Mothers Spirit.
A young married woman was obliged
to remain alone over night in a St.
Louis hotel few years ago, so the
story goes, her husband being detained
by business in a neighboring town, says
the Kansas City Journal. In the dead
of night the woman was awakened out
in the wardrobe. 1t was such sudden
and unearthly uproar that the woman,
sensible and practical though she was,
was frightened. The noise ceas d, tn;
returned. The woman jumped up,
lighted the gas, looked at her watch,
and found it was just midnight, and
made a thorough search, both of the
wardrobe and of the room. There was
nothing, so far as the evidence of her
senses went, which could account for
the racket. The woman put out the
light and went back to bed. The noise
was not repeated, either that night or
any other. Six months afterward, how
ever, the woman was in San Francisco,
and for the first time in her life and
solely GU. of curiosity she attended a
spiritualist meeting. Almost immedi--
ately the medium, a perfect stranger,
turned to her and said, "The spirit of
your mother is present, madam, and
she says that six months ago (raming
the precise date) she tried to commun-
icate with you by means of the ward
robe in the Blank hotel, st. LOUIS The
woman's practical good sense did not
desert her. well, you just tell my
mother" she said, that the next time.
she wants to communicate with me not
to make such an awful racket in the
dead Of night and brighten me half out

AT DEATHS DOOR.
But Saved by Dodd's Kidney
Pills, After all means had
Failed.

DETROIT, M1oa. Oct 3.-Mr. James
Paisley, of Magnolia avenue, one of
our most reputable citizens, is hap
ply man. Things have changed in
his life lately. He is robust, health
y man to day. Recently he was brok
en:down, physical wreck.
Read what he says about it: "For
two years I was at deaths door,
brought there by Bright's disease.
Doctors gave up trying to cure me.
Medicines did me DO good. Pain and
misery was my daily and nightly por
ton.
"A friend persauded\ me to try
Dodd,s Kidney Pills. The the first
few doses gave me heavenly relief.
Each succeeding dose made me bet
ter. Two boxes cured me-made me
new man."
What Dodd's Kidney Pills, did for
Paisley, they will do for every other
victim of Bright's disease. There is
no doubt, no uncertainty about their
effect. They cure every time. If
you don't believe it test them. If
you don't believe test them. THEY'LL
convince you by by curing you.
