Denver Live stock Market.

DENVER. Colo. Oct. a.-tSpecial)
The receipts Of cattle At the Denver
Union Stock Yards ~ far this mouth
show an Increase Of 1900 head compared
with the receipts for the same period
last year. During the week just closed
the cattle receipts were mostly stockers
aud feeders. The demand WAS good
and trading active. There has been no
material change in quotations. The
quality has been against such thing.
that Is tue demand is more for heavier
cattle than are coming for the feed lots
and the stOcker kinds show the best
quality, but buyers OF this class are
picking the best they. can lind. There
Is very little stock selling vt &c unless it

lug 100 and over willreach that figure,
but tile hulk OF tho feeders are selling at

THEY WANTED TO RIDE
Two waits Taken in Charge by the
Police


Two little waits. far from home, but
with not the least idea where their
mother lived. but seemingly content with
their lot were taken in charge By Orlcer
Aspey yesterday afternoon The little
boy was not years Of age and the girl
Is as only past 4. They were pretty little
children. Where they came from no one
knows About half past they suddenly
appeared on a College Hi car. They
did not know where their home was. but
thought it was out east somewhere. The
conductor asked them their names, but
neither could or would tell When he
was about 20 leave me corner they got
of and went over 70 a North Main street
car. They had decided that their home
was in the north end OF town Before
that car started a South Main street
car came along and the little tots got
down of the car and walked across the
street 10 the car headed south and when
the conductor came along they said
they were going home and their mamma
lived south The conductor was willing
TO let them ride but he was afraid
they might fall of the summer cars
when he was not watching, so he turned
them over to the officer. They climbed
up on his shoulder and pulled his hair
and his long moustache and called him
papa" ard seemed supremely happy.
They jab5ered away for dear life and
did not seem TO care whether they went
home or not They did not tell the po-
liceman their names. He started with
them to the station and when climbing
the stairs one of them set up howl be-
cause they were taken out of the sun
shine Some Of the women in the city
library heard them and came running
out and after little paFieying the chill
dren were left in charge of some Of the
women there 10 await their mothers ap-
pearance. Pretty soon woman came
in who knew the children and the little
ones were taken home

Sugar Factory Campaign Almost
Ended.

The sugar making campaign will
close about Wednesday of next week.
That is the wind mp of the beet slicing
will be reached by that time. though the
work OF reducing the bee, syrup in
stock to sugar will keep the factory
running week or ten days longer
The beet crop of this year will round up
about all even $1,000 tons.
1t was hoped and estimated last
spring that the acreage planted would
yield 100 900 tons, but when the harvest
ing season came on the estimate was
reduced to 600 tons. But 93,ooo tons
makes a little better showing than the
last estimate. and makes All all round
very good yield. This will make an
approximate production Of $500 tons Of
sugar as this years output Of the fac
tory. When the campaign is finally
closed it will be possible to give our
readers some further interesting statis-
tics Of this important local industry.

The Question Of Srl,ooI Accommodation

The Question orSciioel Accommodate
Twenty-Five hundred dollars is the
price placed upon the Fcnton property
adjoining the Liberty school ground,
and which is greatly needed for school
purposes. This the School Board
regards as an cxorbitant price, and
the matter Of purchase stands In
allegiance. 1t will be unfortunate il the
Board and the property owner do not get
together on price. This loo feet of
the half block on which the school
stands is OF very material value to the
school, which should never have been
built on 50 small piece of ground and
80 close to the business center Of the
town. But being built, this fraction Of
land would bc Of material help In
making the grounds more attactivc as
we'll as more spacious. The complete
half block can at some future time be
uniformly graded, sidcwalked and
adorned with lawn and trees. while in
the meantime there Is actual need Of
the ground and Of the building upon It
or some other building for immediate
school use. On the other hand, the
proximity Of the school makes the
property undesirable for residence
purposes. II the Board and the owners
Of the property could agree to fair
appraisenent Of the property, the pco-
pie would not Hesitate to vote the
needed sum for its purchase. The
immediate need Of II is too apparent to
be gainsaid. II it is not secured some
other premises will have to be after the
January promotions are made.

The pos.cilice department at Washing.
ton has Just made moot unjust ruling
to the effect that subscription to any
publication, entered as second class mat

and virtually prohibits u publisher from
extending credit to his subscribers,
something which he Inns been nc.
customed to doing almost without excep.
tion from time immemorial. In order
that all OF our Subscribers may place
themselves in shape to receive the
Enterprise regularly as hosetofore we
this week send bills to those in
arrears. We trust that this ruling will
not be enforced as completely ms now
seems possible, aud that we ma,
continue to extend credit US heretofore.
But in order to he ON the safe side

Next IN interest to the sugar factory
boom which prevades the whole country
IN general and perhaps Colorado In
particular, comes the oil boom. Manza.
nola has got it quite bad. One of the
business men up there informs the
Enterprise that they have capitalized an
oil company there for $4,000 and are
selling stock at ten cents share.
Everybody in the town has taken stock
or 10 expected to do so within the next
few days. No oil has been struck yet OF
course. The stock subscribed is for
experimental work. Oil has been struck
at Boulder. There was conference OF
oil men in Denver Monday which
represented 100000 OF Investments in
the various oil districts OF Colorado and
Utah. But Mapsanols wasn't in il.
1t may be later.

II now seems sure that no sugar fac.
tory will be built at Fowler this year.
The company which proposed to erect
the factory give as one reason why they
will not do so is that the Santa Fe
would not grant the favorable rates
desired We suspect that the tariff
question has also had considerable to do
with tue abandonment OF the project.
However. Fowler has hope OF factory
being built in time to handle the crop Of

the United States Export Association,
with offices in New York, is addressing

Just now, when the people arc recover

mas dinner and making New Year resolu-

be an opportune time to introduce

secured stock Of the Battle Creek
Sanitarium Health Foods, and invite all
dyspeptics and all who would avoid
becoming dyspcptic to give them call.
