Figures compiled by the stock yards
authorities at South Omaha show reason
for the faith that this market will soon
rank second in the list of meat packing
centers. During the past year South
Omaha has made remarkable gains in
the actual number of animals slaugh-
tered, so large, in fact, that if kept up
for the current year it will have at
tanned the coveted place. That there
is more room for trade expansion at the
South Omaha market, and therefore
more ground to hope for it, is found in
the figures showing the percentage Of
animals received at this market which
are actually slaughtered here. In this
respect it leads all the Others The
heavy excess of receipts at other mar
kets over the number killed means that
they have reached nearly their maxi
mum capacity, while the reverse is true
at this point.

When Colonel Roosevelt bid farewell to
the Rough Riders after the muster-out at
Montauk Point. he urged them to return to
their homes and to the avocatons they had
left in response to their country's call. With
particular emphasis he warned against the
ailment commonly called the "swelled
head" Public applause and Ssnlration,' ~
he said. lis not to be depended on to furnish
food and raiment. 1t is warm and genial
today; tomorrow it may be a frost. Go to
your homes and to your work and stick to
both"
The soundness Of the advice is shown in
the story Of the struggles and melancholy
end of Sergeant "Bill" Anthony, one of the
heroes of the Maine tragedy. 1t was he
who coolly reported to Captain Sigsbee after
the explosion, Il have to report, sir, that
the ship is blown up and sinking" The
water was then making rapid way through
out the ship and he and Captain Sigsbee
barely had time to save themselves.
For his bravery Private Anthony was pro-
noted on Captain Sigsbee's recommendation
to the rank OF sergeant. He served through
the war and at the close OF bostilities came
to the Brooklyn navy yard, where he acted
as provost marshal. In the meantime letters
by the hundred praising his bravery had
poured in upon him One of them was
from Miss Adele Maude Blancet OF Penn
Yam, n. Y. He answered her letter and
correspondence followed, which resulted in
their marriage on october 10 last year. Soon
after his marriage a play was produced at
the Grand opera house, and Anthony was
advertised as one of the cast. Tie was
warned by the Navy department that he
could not be connected with the navy yard
and belong to theatrical company also,
and he chose to go with the show. The
production was not a popular success and
ho was soon out OF employment. Rather
than face what he believed was starvation,
he took his life.

No matter how bravely and faithfully SOL
diers do their duty, when they don the garb
OF civil life, tho country expects them to
join the procession of hustlers. For brief
time they are welcome to the fat of the land,
to the best in the house, but that hospitality
soon pals if overworked. No city in the
country has shown such hospitality and
generosity to soldiers, going and returning,
as San Francisco and, as a consequence, the
city is seriously embarrassed to provide
for soldiers stranded there Day by day."
says the Argonaut, "the number
of discharged volunteers in this city is in
creasing. They have been returned here
from the Philippines and discharged with
more or less money in their pockets: in
some cases they have enough to pay trans
portation to the places where they enlisted,
in many cases they have not enough. In a
great number of cases, whether they have
much or little money to begin with, they
spend it in the cheaper class of saloons or
lose it to sharpers, male and female. Then
they become charges on the community and
help to swell the army of the unemployed,
which is always too large here during the
winter. 1t has become matter of daily
occurrence for citizens to be stopped on the
street by discharged soldiers who want as
sistance. They attempt to sell relics from
the Philippines, or even to get few dollars
for parts of their uniforms with which to
buy drinks. This does not apply, of course
to the better class of the discharged soldiers,
but unfortunately, there are too many who
do not belong to the better class.
'The question is what is to be done with
this increasing army of dependents. If they
are permitted to remain here through the
winter they will undoubtedly furnish many
recruits for the criminal classes. They should
be sent to their homes as soon as possible 1t
will be far cheaper to the people of this city
and far better for the soldiers themselves
than II they are allowed to remain here.
When the California volunteers were about
to return considerable sum of money was
raised for their reception. They have been
received and cared for. and there is. we be-
lieve, quite large balance still in the fund
This money could not be used for a better
purpose than to pay for transportation to
the eastern states for these stranded
soldiers. BY all means let it be put to that

how to plan to meet all requirements

ant thing in study of this kind, which
Is often lost sight of, is the great de-
STABILITY of the building being rat and
vermin proof as near as possible First,
the site should be a level one and the
foundation so built that only a few
inches will be out of the ground. Then
fill the inside ground level with the
wall with good, solid dirt, free from
loan or vegetable matter.
Study the needs of your stable just
as you would those of your kitchen. Be
sure to embody in it everything that
can be of use to you. Let it be labor
saving building in economy Of mater
ials used as we'll as in the other re-
quirements involved. The more
thought you expend in this direction the
more Of a success you will have. Be
sure to plan so that you will have dry
base and plenty of air under the floor.
work, and without it decay will quickly
ensue. Good drainage Is also neces-
sary. Carefully graded and construct
ed stall floors, with drain connections
which can be washed out readily, are
important from sanitary point of
view especially. In fact, the occupants
of house or stable have most to gain
from first-class drainage and ventila-
ton.
This building was erected as model
of its kind and has proved to be so. 1t
is in every way desirable for its uses
and is good example of what prop
erly equipped stable should be. There
is one large box stall with hard dirt
floor. The carriage room is fioored
with tongued and grooved plank two
inches thick; second story with ordin-
ary flooring. The foundation is Of
stone. The structure above the founda-
ton is strongly framed; the first story
finished with drop siding; second story
and roof, shingled. The roof is left
unpainted; all other wood work Is
painted two coats. The width of the
building is twenty-five feet, and the
depth eighteen feet. The height Of the
first story is eight feet, and the second
story up to the rafters. The cost of a
structure Of this kind would naturally
vary with the market as influenced by
local conditions, but it could probably
be built in most places for about S3OO

To Mend Shell Combs,

AS tortoise shell combs are always
prone to break easily, many may find
this hint useful one. First slope the
margins of the broken pieces for the
distances Of about quarter of an inch
from the edge; then overlap these
and when thus arranged clamp
them together with strong letter clip,
and immerse the comb in boiling wa
ter for some time. AS the horn softens
it unites. After it is thoroughly dry,
the place where the break had been
will be almost invisible. Boston
