mitted at a word into the house.
The servant led us down a matted
passage, and showed us at the end into
a great library. all lined with book
cases and busts upon the top of them,
where the squire and DR.. Livesey sat,
pipe in hand, on either side of the
bright fire.
| had never seen the squire so near
at hand. He was a tall man, over six
feet high, and broad in proportion, and
he had bluff rough and-ready face, all
roughened and REDEEMED and lined in
his long travels. His eyebrows were
very black. and moved readily, and this
gave him a look of some temper, not
bad, you would say, but quick and
high.
"Come in, Mr.. Dance" says he, very
stately and condescending.
Good evening, Dance" says the doc
tor, with nod. "And good evening to
you, friend Jim. What good wind
brings you here?"
The supervisor stood up straight and
stiff, and told his story like lesson /;
and you should have seen how the two
gentlemen leaned forward and look ed
az each other, and forgot to smoke in
their surprise and interest. When they
heard how my mother went back to the
Inn, DR.. Lvesey fairly slapped his
thigh, and the squire cried "Bravo!"
and broke his long pipe against the
crate. Long before it was done, Mr.
Trelawney Chat, you will remember
was the squire's name) had got up
from his seat, and was stridine about
the room, and the doctor as If to hear
the better had taken off his powdered
wig, and sat there, looking very stran &c
indeed with his own close-cropped
black poll.
At last Mr.. Dance finished the story
"Mr. Dance" said the squire, "you
are very noble fellow. And as for rid
ing down that black. atrocious mis-
creant, regard It as an act Of virtue
sir. like stamping on a cockroach. Thi:

Here it is, SIR" said I, and gave hin
the oilskin packet.
The doctor looked 1t all over, as II hi.
fingers were itching to open it; but, in
stead OF doing that, he put it quietly IL
the pocket of his coat.

had his ale he must. Of course, be of

"As you will, Livesey," said the squire
'1Iawkins has earned better than COLI

So a big pigeon pie was brought il
and put on a side-table. and l made ;
hearty supper, for I was as hungry a
hawk. while Mr.. Dance was furthe,
complimented, and at last dismissed.

"And, now, Livesey," said the squire

We rode hard all the way, till we drew
up before DR.. Livesey's door. The
house was all dark in front.
Mr.. Dance told me to jump down and
knock, and Dogger gave me a stirrup
to descend by. The door was opened
almost at once by the maid.

No, she said; he had come home in the
afternoon, but had gone up to the hall
to dine and pass the evening with the
squire.

THE LIVE STOCK MARKET.
Latest Quotations from South Oman
and Kansas City.
SOIITH OMAHA.

C~attle-There were more cattle on saie
than there were g. week ago, but still the
receipts for the week to date show a de-
crease as compared with last week. AS
compared with the same week OF last
year., though, there Is not much change
The bulk of the offerings was again
made up OF beef steers and the quality
was about the same as II has been. PACK
ers did not take hold with very mucn
life and a slow and weak market result
ed. Some of the choicest punches sold
at just about steady prices. The cow
market was also slow, will the tendency
Of prices downward. The best grades
sold at right around steady prices. Bulls
did not show much change, but II any
thing they were Il little lower In SYM
pathy with the weak feeling on steers
and cows. The same was true of stays
unless they were very good. Veal calves
brought just about steady prices. There
were comparatively few stockers n
feeders on sale, so that the market held
just about steady. Good stuff sold with
out difficulty at steady prices.
Hogs-Good heavy hogs sold largely at
SOD to $40, and fancy loads sold from
$40 to $3.50, which carries the market to
as high a point as has been reached this
year. The medium weights went mostly
from $685. to 500. while the lighter loads
sold from $685. down. There was not
much Improvement In the demand for the
lightweight stuff. which was left until
the last, and although that class of hogs
also improved in price. it was hard TO
get packers to take them. Everything
was disposed of at an early hour.
Sheep-There was a light run of sheep
and lambs. but still there were more on
sale than yesterday. Packers were all
anxious for supplies, so that an active
and stronger market was experienced.
Some of the offerings were of better
quality than anything offered up to this
time, so that prices reached the high
point of the season. Clipped lambs sold
as high as $6.4, and clipped wethers
brought S6.25. The market for the week
SO far can safely be quoted 10q15c higher
all around. The $6.25 clipped wethers
weighed III pounds, but they were of ex-
ira choice quality.

FIVE HUNDRED ARE KILLED.
Great Loss of Life is Caused by the
Earthquake in Guatemala.

NEW YORK, April Estate dis
patches from Guatemala are to the eff
feet that the whole republic was shak-
en- by an earthquake from $3.50 o'clock
on Friday night up to s o'clock Sun
day night, with only short intervals
between the shocks, says a Panama
dispatch to the Herald.
The dispatches of Saturday concern
ing the disaster in Quesaltenango are
confirmed. 1t is estimated that 500
persons were killed and millions of
dollars worth of property was destroy
ed there. Fires which followed the
earlier shocks added to the loss, and
many heartrending stories of suffering
are received. The whole country is
panic-stricken.
The towns of PatZum and Mazaten-
ango, the latter in the great coffee
district, were destroyed. The vista
ton was spectacular in character. The
first shocks were accompanied by ter
rife thunder storms. The lightning
was followed by a deluge of rain.

The Health Authorities are thus
taking effective neal to prevent the
introduction into our markets OF in
iur,ous substitutes in place Of whole
some baking powders.
AS alum costs only two cents q
mound. there is a great temptation for
those manufacturers who make sub
stitutes and imitation goods, to use
it. Alum baking powders can be de-
tected by the health authorities by
chemical analysis, but the ordinary
housekeeper, whose assistance in pro-
tecting the health Of the people is i'm
portant, cannot make a chemical ex-
animation. She may easily know the
alum powders, however, from the fact
that they are sold at from ten TO
twenty cents for a pound can, or
that some, prize-like a spoon or
glass, or piece Of crockery, or wooden
ware-is given with the powder as an
inducement.
AS the people continue to realize the
Importance OF this subject and con-
sumers insist on having baking pow
der Of established nam and charac-
ter, and as the health authorities con-
tinue their vigorous crusades, the
alum danger will, it is hoped, finally
be driven from our homes.

An Honest MANS Onininn.

Vermont, Mo-, April 28th.-If what
Mr.. j. S. Tillery Of this place says is
true-and none who know him doubt
his honesty-the new remedy Dodd's
Kidney Pills is a wonderful medicine
indeed. Mr.. Tillery says:
Il had Kidney and Liver Trouble for
years. l had used many medicines but
could get nothing to cure me.
81 heard of a new remedy called
Dodd's Kidney Pills and began a treat
ment with the result that was very
oon on the mend.
Il kept o N using the pills and am
now entirely better. 1 honestly do be-
IeVe that they are the greatest remedy
the world has ever seen.
Il am always willing to help a good
thing and l cannot say too much for
n that helped me so much.
eff 1 didn't know that Dodd's Kid
ney Pills would do all that is claimed
for them 1 wouldn't say word of
praise for them"
