HOGS-There was a moderate supply of
hogs here today and as the demand was
In pretty tair shape the market opened
were considerably lighter than yesterday
and that fact makes the market on paper
look a little better than 1t really was.
Ihe long string sold at $3.50, with the bulk
from $50 to $6.b2h, and choice loads sold
up to $6.60 Trading was fairly active, so
that the most of the hogs that were on
the opening market were disposed of in
good season, the later sales being the
strongest. Trains, however, kept. arriving
all the morning, so that the market did
not come TO q close until q late hour.

started out he was well armed with
references of the most excellent char

that he had been compelled to tell the
entire story of his life. and even then
the matter had not been settled. One
gray-bearded gentleman. living In u
beautiful old-fashioned house not Tar

inquisitOr of the lot. He placed the
applicant on the rack for an hour and
half. firing questions at him with
Maxim-gun rapidity. When the late

was able to beat Earl Ii at his own /
game. He started out with queries |
as to the applicants business. his age, |
his family. the time. he had lived In |
Boston and whether he was likely to |
be out nights. The old gentleman
wanted to know If the applicant had
any friends. and. IL SO. who were they.
The question. however. which appear
ed to be the most vital. was on the
matter Of being out nights. The ap-
plicant finally. with tears in his eyes,
confessed that it was quite likely that
some nights he would be out until mid
night or later, at work.. "W-a-ll."
