Business in building circles it at
present very brisk. Compared to last
year at this time it is almost twice as
good" was the opinion Of an architect
in speaking of the matter yesterday.
In fact all the architects reported very
heavy business, even for this season of
the year. The greater part of the resi-
dence building is going on out the pike,
as the general tendency of home seek
ers is to locate in that section. Quite
little work is being done in nearby
towns by local architectural firms.
Following is list of building notes,
which will give an idea of the work new
progressing in this city and vicinity:

A Woman Found With Her skull
Crushed -Evidentlya Murder.
Omaha, Aug. 3O.-A woman whose
identity is mystery was found dead
on the pavement yesterday morning
The doctors say she had been dead for
several hours and that death resulted
from the fracture of the skull evidently
caused by the fall on the pavement.
All the people who live in the vicinity
know about it is that about II o'clock
Monday night they heard woman
scream and saw a buggy passing in
which We're man and woman. The
man was lashing the horse into run
and holding the woman, who was
standing up and evidently trying to
jump out of the buggy. There is no clue
to the identity of the dead woman or
the man who was with her She was
we'll dressed and evidently woman of
refinement. The street where she was
found is in the heart of the best resi-
dence portion of the city.

leg for Rio de Janeiro. From Rio the
cruiser proceeded to San Francisco In
easy stages.
The Newark was delayed at Point
Low on the west coast for three weeks
in consequence of it's supply OF coal
running short. The vessel had to burn
wood and took in 500 coros to keep the
fires going. While in this condition a
Chilean man-of-war arrived in port and
helped the Newark with sufficient coal
to reach Valparaiso.
A court martial has been ordered to
fix the responsibility for this condition
of affairs. The matter lies between
Capt. Goodrich and Chief Engineer
MoritZ, who disagreed as to coaling the
ship.
The officers refused to discuss the
his way from the east to take Capt
Goodrich's place on the Newark. 1t Is
rumored that Capt. Goodrich will take

The Newark Will probably be sent tc
Mare island and then stay on the coast

OUR MEAT SUPPLY.
Secretary Wilson Explains Why
Prices Are Higher.

Washington. Aug. 30.-"The high
price of meats is caused by the smaller
supply and the improved conditions
that enable the masses to purchase
more animal food" said Secretary Will
son, to representative of the press
yesterday afternoon.
There are three prime reasons for
the higher prices of beef" continued the
head OF the agricultural department.
One is the great and widespread pros
perity of the country. A second is the
reduced number of cattle in the United
States. A third is the great decrease in
the area of western ranges for raising
cheap cattle.
There can be no question about the
prosperous conditions existing in the
United States. Everywhere I went DUR
ing my six weeks trip to the Pacific
coast / saw workers busy at good
wages. We know 1t is the same in the
mills and factories OF the east
The American people are great meat
eaters. Even the laboring man wants
meat two or three times day when he
has the money to buy. He has the mon
ey now, because he is earning good
wages. With prosperity has come an
enormously increased demand for
meats. Wherever our flag goes meat
eaters will multiply and make business
for the stock raisers of America.
incidentally, let me say hat the meat
>aters rule the world. If Englishmer
We're fed on potatoes a few generations
and Irishmen on meat the capital of the
| British empire would be transferred
from London to Dublin.
For various reasons the number Of
4 meat animals in the country has beer
growing gradually less for severa
years. Hard times forced people Il
economic by using less meat. The re
suit was smaller demand for live stock
with lowering Of prices, which in turf
led stock raisers to grow fewer animals
Large losses from disease and exposur
last year also had some effect in tn
same direction.
Here is 8 statement by the divisio,
of statistics showing the number o
lcattle other than mich cows, of sheel
and Of swine on Jan. for ten year

Tod sloan objects to the stage.

Kokomo, Ind. Aug. 3O.-In winding UP
his business affairs on this side of the
water preparatory to an extended resi-
dence in England, Jockey Tod Sloan ex-
postulated with his only sister, Mollie
Sloan, who has for twelve years been
on the vaudeville stage, known to the
play world as Blanche lie Claire. Tod
thinks her occupation reflects discredit
on him as we'll as on herself.
She is now playing with company al
San Francisco. her role being flying
rings and dancing. When here last Tod
offered his sister a $4,000 home if she
would give up the stage. but she reject
ed the offer, declaring she preferred ar
occupation without home to home
without an occupation.
Besides that, she gave him to under
stand that her calling was just as hon
orable as his She also offered to assist
him if he should ever need help finan-
cially.

1T is noticeable that the decrease be-
gan az hard times pinched. The num-
Der of sheep increased somewhat dur
ing the last two years, and that was
probably due to the fact that many
persons substituted mutton for beef. 1t
will be observed that since 1892 the
number of cattle has decreased nearly
TO- O0. 000 or about ~ per cent. but 1t
must also be remembered that the pop
