weather conditions that have prevailed for last
Two days Under such conditions the cavalry is fol-
lowing its daily schedule without WEAKNESS TO men
or horses, and for the excellent work being done is
receiving fun measure of praise from Major Oliver
B. Bridgnan and General Roe, who maintains a
lively interest in the squadron. of which he was
formerly member, and Troop c because it is of
the cavalry of the service
This morning pleasing diversity was given TO
the drills by Major Bridgman, who gathered two
troops together the old parade ground for

WHY BEEF HAS ADVANCED

CAGO.

Chicago. June 4-Beef on the hoot as stocsneu
say. has been advancing IN price for the last two
weeks. until the retail butchers OF Chicago havs
found It necessary 10 raise their prices 70 Gus
toners. just the butchers have done in New
York. The unusual feature OF the advance Is that
it affected only the cheaper grades OF meat. and
thus places the burden the people who cannot
afford sirlons and pOrterhouses at IS and 20 cents
a pound The advance, what IS known

month ago.
Beef carcasses have gone up nearly 81 hundred
pounds In the last two weeks said representa-
tive Of Armour & Co. but this Is nothing unusual
Cattle always higher this season OF the
year. The advance will not continue long. and IL
has reached the top mark already"
An explanation Of the increased cost OF beef is
found in the late arrival OF warm weather and the
consequent scarcity OF grass fed cattle from the
West. The packers have heen drawing the sup
ply OF fed cattle with the result that farmer.

COSTUMES FOR POOR ACTRESSES

In Germany there is society for the relief OF i'm
pecunous actresses. As ordinary actresses have 70
supply their own costumes. II is often difficult for
those who afford good wardrobes to get
engagements. The society is now a year and n
half old The first report stated: Branches have
been established in Berlin. Cologne. Munich Stutt-
CART, Carlsruhe and Mannheim. and 1t is intended
10 have a branch in every German city Of impor-
tance before the end Of another year In every
city the business Of the society is conducted by a
joint committee Of wealthy society women and the
most conspicuous actress in the place. So far the
demand for costumes has been much larger than
the supply. but this condition has only impeed the
women workers to greater activity"
