Hogs-Receipts, 5000; shipments. 1000
The hog market opened with statesmen
asking fully steady prices, but buyers were
very backward, and, evidently expecting
lower reports from other places, they
were not inclined to make any bids at the
start, therefore few transactions were re-
ported. Later it was evident that sales
men would have to take lower prices IL a
clearance was made. At decline ranging
from 211@71kc, with the average for mixed
grades SC lower, the trading was fairly
active and a good clearance had been made
at the close. Quotations:

apparently no urgent demand from any
source. and buyers were a little inclined
toward weaker prices. Statesmen, however.
were persistent in their demand for at
least steady prices. and finally the trading
became fairly active on that basis and a
good clearance had been made at the close.
The supply of steers was unusually small
for this time in the week, and no prime
kinds were represented, the top price being
$515. The class of female butcher cattle
on sale was generally only fair quality.

Plans for Rines Hill.

When Street Commissioner Wellman
has completed the work on Rines hill
he will have the best piece of road.
probably. to be found in the State. A
more difficult job could hardly be found.
Not only is the road in a bad place but
the decline is so. sharp that it is con-
sdered one of the worst hills TO be
found in the State.
The committee on streets, hearing of
a similar hill in Rhode Island. sent Mr.,
Wellman on. AS the result ne has for
mulated a plan for doing the work.
after the idea of the hill he saw while
away While Rines hill will be ma
cadamized. the macadam will be laid
in tar, so that the surface will have an
appearance similar to that Of the as
phalt road, but will be more durable.
On the road which Mr.. Wellman saw
no repairs have been made for five
years. 1t is necessary to make repairs
every year nearly on Rines hill and even
then it is not in first-class condition
on account of the washing during rain
falls.

A Friday night row was aired in the
police court. Saturday night, when it
was well illustrated how hard a blow
Onisime Brooks can strike. Near him
We're seated Charles Busque. whose
head was done up in white bandaSes to
assist the bruises in healing, and Peter
Roncoe, whose left eye was draped in
the deep mourning of young widow.
According to the story told by the wit
nesses, Roncoe and Basque had trouble
with another man. whose name was not
given. and Brooks stepped along. He
was mistaken by the two men and they
took hold of his clothing. After several
attempts to clear himself he planted
two blows one in the left eye of each
man. A young man who came along
later found Busque lying beside the
curb stone, in an unconscious condition.
According to the story of the affair. as
told by the police Busque was kicked
after he had been knocked down.
In the police court Brooks was found
