LYONS, AUUG4lllC9 Lid VI
Monday the fire engine was out
being cleaned up and the boys gave
the dust a good washing from the
courthouse to the bayou.
Attention is especially invited to
the notice Of the meeting Of the Dem
ocratic Executive Committee which
will be held next Saturday, the 25th
instant.
Ramsey refinery had a little acct
dent Sunday night, blowing out a
cylinder head, but the damage was
soon repaired and the big mill got to
work again.
No meeting of the police jury Mon
day owing to the absence Of several
members. Those present adjourned
until the next regular meeting, the
first Monday in December.
Parties renting land on Hunter
Canal had better read the company's
notice on the first page and guide
themselves accordingly, as the COM
pany has and reserves the right to
refuse water to any and all lands.
The old story that fogs and white
frosts bring rain has signally failed,
and the drouth continues. The roads
are SO dusty that travel is very dis
agreeable. The heavy fogs are almost
equivalent to a shower and greatly
bentit the pasturage and gardens.
Ernest Spencer, alias "SwatchoW,"

pe~nitentiary.

HOG MARKET STRONG
Good Line of Receipts and
Quality inst Fair.
TOPS UP TO 1882 ~
Hog Market Compares Well
With Other Points.

The bag market yesterday was strong,
with the quality Of hogs on sale just fair
and the receipts good considering the day.
The local market exhibited considerable
strength as compared with the early re-
ports from other points. Most of them
gave out first as at the best steady, with
enoug.. others as steady to weaker, and
steady to easy. This market all day at
this point for all the sales recorded mark
ed UP q strong quotation full and this
ruled for most Of the early sales and all
the car lots. It was a bad DAY for ship
ping and very unfavorable for the stock
interests, and yet the receipts were heavy
comparatively and showed up better than
the same Gay last week and for last Sat
urday. For the most OF the day the car
receipts were light and It was not expect
ed, In view Of the severe weather, that
the day in whole would be very heavy,
but toward the close the car stuff COM
llenced to pour in and altogether eight
cars were received, and they were met
with ready and prompt welcome as the
buying element was in force and hogs
were wanted. The pens were filed at
time when nearly every one expected the
business about over. Renewed enthusiasm
however, at once followed and the bid
ding was prompt and lively and IN driv-
ing snow storm the late received hogs
were transferred and sent over the scales
and well taken care Of to the very best
advantage Of the seller All the hogs were
sold and at good strong prices, with the
feeling buoyant and the demand good. The
quality Of the offerings was just fair, not
better, but there was little evidence Of
hestancy on the part of the buyers from
want of high grade hogs, since everything
sold that was offered, and sold strong. The
receipts were above the other two COM
pairing days, while the quality was like
wise several pounds the best Of the two.
This, however, does not altogether signi-
fy better grade since heavy packers
and mixed coarse stuff abounded IL sew
eral of the loads, materially lowering the
grade Of the day on the average. Sew
eral Of the shippers were on the mar
ket in person with their consignments and
all expressed entire satisfaction with the
days deal, since the bad weather and
lower reports elsewhere were expected to
somewhat stagnate the market tone here
and throttle any spirit of enthusiasm. But
the day closed well and nothing was left
