A Violent Attack of Group Cured

Last winter an infant child Of mine had croup in a violent form" says Elder John W. Rogers. a Christian Evangelist of Filley, Mo.

WOES OF DOG CATCHER
Conscience Stricken Yesterday Be
fore HIS Awful Duty

George Mcdaniel the cOlored citizen
who holds the responsible position Of dos
catcher felt like an eEecutiouer in the
presence of a dog yesterday that had
been condemned to death, and he threw
down his wicked revolver. Mcdaniel act
ually ran away from the place of exc
cutiOn.
Under the city law the dog-catcher, af-
ter he has held a dog three days. must
kin the unfortunate canine whose mas
ter is TOO stingy or TOO poor To pay the
dog tax. Last week Mcdaniel caught
dfty-one dogs. and thirty-ninc of them
were sentenced by the autocraIc dog
catcher to be killed yesterday.
He said some Of the dogs seemed TO
realize that something awful was going
to happen. They showed almost human
intelligence. and some of them would
have a pathetic look in their eyes when
they beheld the dangerOus-looklng re-
volver. They seemed TO say; Don't XIII
me-"
Catcher Mcdaniel has a mixture Of SUI
perstiti0n and sympathy in his makeup,
and when a dog looks at his with tn
pathetic appeal. he takes advantage of
the rules governing the d0g-catchcr which
allows him to sen q dog with aristocratc
blood in his veins for the amount OF the
tax and the fee for killing a dog. When
a dog makes that pathetic appeal with
his eyes, Mcdaniel puts him in the royal
pen for sale.
Yesterday when he led ont cur from
the execution stall, he tried the svmpa-
thetic racket on the dog-catcher- lie
turned and faced his eXeCutiOner and
turned his eyes appealinsly up into the

been a little unpleasantness existing be-
tween the two men for some time, which
eliminated in the running fight on the
night Of tn 2lst, when an axe, brick bats
and a tin bucket formed the munitions OF
war.
Snyder. the defendant. was represented
by the law firm Of Matson and Matson
and they made a strong fight for their
client on the grounds of self-defense.
City Attorney Helm was not aole to
be present, and Judge Stanley conducted
the case for the city.
The city introduced five witnesses, Who
swore that Snyder started the rumpus
The defense placed those witnesses in the
box and their testimony was not clear
as to who started it, with the exception
Of the defendant himself. and he did not
deny that be made the play with the AK
but insisted that be had provocation.
In summing up, the judge shattered the
self-defense argument in q few able expo
sitions Of the law. and concluded by find
Ing the defendant guilty OF assault and
fixed his fine at S25. The judge admins
tered a little wholesome advice to both
parties as to- tho status Of the law gov
erning cases of his Kind and stated that
i'm most cases both parties were partially
b'amable and that this seemed to be one
of like nature; and in conclusion that no
man should take the law into bis own

IT TOOK The LEAD
Wichita Hog Market Makes
New Record.
OTHER MARKETS DOWN
While Wichita Continued to
Advance.

Yesterday the hog division at the stock
yards made new record in several years
and showed again the independent local
strength OF this market. as not affected
By sympathy influence Of any OF the
rest For instance Kansas City was 2i5
a. cents down; St. Louis was about
cents lower. and Chicago quoted as weak.
In spite Of this wet blanket influence the
local market. under light supply and Sc
we're competition. took a shoot upward
and closed 500 cents higher. The open
ing was about steady with Fridays best
rrices. but early II became likely that
there would be a light run and the buying
clement bid up for what came in and
lauded the top sale or 5000 which Is the
highest price paid for hogs at this mar
ket ia abuut zen years Two months
go The high point crawled up within one
point of the six cents range, stopping at
s591Is Then the slump in the provisions
market ana the consequent weakening
ia re prolonged strength of live hogs at
al the western hog MAJ kets, sent the
prices down and they kept going until
the bottom was reached raunOd S5.35 and
$3.50 for the several classes Of hogs and
then the reaction set fin and the prices
commenced to gradually crawl upward
again until yesterday they went over the
previous high point of two months ago
by one point and landed on the high
water mark There never was so keen
q demand for good fat hogs at this mar
lcet as right now. and there have never
been so many big buyers with almost
unlimited capacity who want them, thus
making an eager call Ior the right grades,
and a keen firm competition. There have
been too many light under fed imma-
tured hogs but this has been true also
Of the rest OF western points. The grade
and quality has ben slightly improved the
past week, but prime heavy butcher
weights are what the local packers most
want. Yesterday the receipts were light,
it is true, but so were they at all other
hog markets, Chicago having only n,1o
nogs in, when they estimate 5000 FOR
Monday and showed up 1900 on Friday.
all fair comparisons made and yester-
days stif advance shows that this mar
ket has far too heavy a demand which IS
permanent to near be satisfied with the
present light run of hogs, and the BEST
prices viii be paid for the right kind OF
hogs which no shipper in Oklahoma or
southern Kansas can improve upon by
going by.
