HUNTER A BAD PRISONER.

Des Moines, June 24.---The board of

den Jones of Ft. Madison to the effect
he is having trouble IN disciplining
Matt Hunter, who was recently con-
victed and sent up from Ringgold coun-
ty for the crime of killing Homer Hol-
land is proving extremely refractory.
He refuses to work and says he was not
sent to prison to labor and he refuses
to exert himself Warden Jones has
put Hunter in solitary confinement and
is feeding him on bread and water.
Warden Hunter, of AnamGsa, was in
the city yesterday and in conference
with the board of control. Warden
Hunter says Wesley Ell<ins is getting
along well. He is still at the home of
Professor James z. Harlan and is find
ing plenty of employment. He may en-
ter Cornell College in the fall. Warden
Hunter says Elllins was extremely re-
ticent at first but he has been kindly
treated and has been invited to the So
cieties of the college and other gath
erings and is gradually losing his shy
ness.
Warden Hunter was accompanied by
his wife and was on his way to Newton
to attend the funeral of his brother, DR.
II. f. Hunter, who was buried at 2
o'clock Monday afternoon.

Market Gossip.

Chicago, June 25.-There was de-
cided scarcity Of good prime fat cows
and that was why the trade was SO
strong on that class. Stockers and
feeders were about steady.
These are record breaking times an
the Chicago live stock market. Prices
for corn-fed Texas cattle and for hogs
have all been broken this week.
In well-informed stock yard circles
there is no doubt whatever that Swift
will absorb the Ango- American Pack
ing and Provision company. The deal
is not yet closed, but the finishing
touches are all it lacks Naturally there
are well-defined rumors of other and
larger combinations
Friday, July 4, will be recognized as
a holiday at the stock yards, and no
stock will be weighed or sold on that
day. AS Saturday is always a holiday
in the cattle and sheep markets, it has
been proposed to have Saturday, July
5, recognized as a holiday, also. This
would give much appreciated oppor-
tunitv for stock yards workers to get
in a little three day holiday without
interfering in any serious way with
business. No doubt if the matter was
submitted to the live stock exchange
it would receive consideration.

CAUGHT A BATCH OF BATS.
TUSCALOOSA Journal

Friday noon as Attorney O.. NJ.
Downes was going home to lunch he
saw a large bat on the walk. Cutting
a sharp stick he impaled it and on
turning it around was surprised to
see three young ones attached and
sucked by the parent. He took his
find to DR.. D. A. Hoffman to add to
his big collection Of curiosities. The
parent bat measures more than eleven
inches from tip to tip of wings and
its under part is covered with yell
lowish fur The young ones measure
between three and four inches. The
bats appear to be of an uncommon
variety for this latitude.

News of Scranton.

Special to Times Republican.
Scranton, June 24.-Mrs. Henry
Phelps died Sunday afternoon after q
long illness. The funeral service was
held today at the Christian church.
Last Saturday afternoon Corydon
Van AIKEN met with quite painful &C
cident. He attempted to shoot bird
with loaded brass shotgun shell. He
and a playmate had the shell tied to II
broomstick. While Corydon aimed the
inprovised gun at the bird his friend
touched off the shell with piece of
punk. The shell tore thru the Van
AIKEN boys face from the corner of the
mouth to the ear. exposing the teeth.
The other boy lost the first joint of his
thumb.
Many fields of corn in this vicinity
have been damaged by the superabun-
dance of rain.
Scranton is making preparations for
Il celebration of the Fourth. Among
the interesting events will be two ball
loon ascensions. the wild west show,
with pony express and stage coach rob-
berry, day fireworks and a moving pic
ture exhibit in the evening. The Scran-
ton cornet band, which has the finest
of any band in the
west, will furnish the music.

Two Fools.

An old man l know of, hard-work-
ing man he is. and in order to get
along and educate his children carries
his dinner pail to work every day. He
is one of those people who know moth
ing but hard work all their lives, and is
determined his boy shall have an edu-
cation, so that he will not have to slave
as his father has to do. This is fool
No. 1. I'll strike the old man for a
PUNK, when he comes home. This is
pay day." said a young man CD of this
city, speaking of his father, the man
alluded to above. This young man may
be seen around the corners dressed up
in good style, smoking a cigaret which
his fathers hard work buys for him.
This young man does not do the chores
around home to pay for his keep, but
he simply goes to school, shows up for
his meals at the proper time, and lets
his father take care of the work when
he comes home at night. The boy, as
| map him out, will grow up to be a sa-
loon bum, and have no one TO respect
him in his manhood. The hopes of the
father will be blasted and he will many
times in his life, If he lives to see the
boy grow up, wish that he were never
born. Poor fool, poor old fool.

Chicago June 25.-Cattle-Barely
$4,000 head have been marketed here
the first half of the week, against A.
4S3 the same time last week. These
reduced supplies are resulting in
stronger prices for good fat beeves,
which are steadily advancing, and with
estimated receipts of $4,000 today, best
steers brought $50, an advance of 5
over the highest previous sale this
week. While the better class of fat dry
fed cattle ruled active at firm prices.

Notwithstanding today's receipts at

pared to 100.143 the same time last
week With 1000 on SALE including
$500 carried over last night, there was

Eastern Apple Prospect.
TChicago Packer.1

Reports from the various apple grow
ing sections in New York point to a
splendid crop the coming season pro-
vided the 17-year locust stories which
are now floating about are to some eX-
tent without foundation. Last week.
the press dispatches said that this pest
was prevalent to an unlimited degree in
south Jersey and this week word comes
that the locust is cutting the broonlcorn
crop to pieces in southern Illinois. That
section is where the bulk of the apples
are grown in the Sucker state and the
reports so far have been very favorable.
Southern Missouri and northern Arkan-
sas, THE Land of the Big Red Apple,
are looking forward to fine crop and up
to date no parasite has yet appeared to
hinder its growth.
Up thru the Hudson river valley,
those orchards that We're not stripped
of their foliage by the worm last year
have blossomed full and the set is good.
A large grower at Madalin writes a
house on the street that indications are
for a large crop all thru the Hudson
river valley.
The fruit crop in Orleans county To-
Gated in western New York was practice
ally uninjured by the late frosts several
weeks ago. Some of the early varieties
were nipped a little, but the bottom was
so heavy that the loss is not more than
10 or 10 per cent, and many of the
growers consider the damage a blessing
in disguise. All the buds have set, are
growing nicely and look healthy. Kings
and in fact all the early varieties are
fruited very heavy. and are heavy, If
not equal to the crop of SO. The Bald
win and Russell trees are not so thickly
loaded still there are prospects of
good yield for both of these varieties.
The small fruits in western New York
We're hurt and there are a few localities
where they were wiped out entirely,
Ounces We're at first reported ruined,
but later Developments show that they
are in better shape and it is thought
there will be about so per cent of a
crop. Taking everything into consider
alton the outlook at this writing is for
good crop of apples in western New
York and a light crop of small fruits.

STRIKE IS MOI LIKELY.
Coal Dealers and Operators of
Iowa and Nebraska Hold Con-
vention at Des Moines.
Delegates Predict That Soft Coal
Miners Will Not Join the
Anthracite Strike.
Freight Rates and Other Mat
tiers OF Interest to the Trade
Discussed.

| Des Moines, June 25.-The coal deal
ers and operators of Iowa and Ne
braska are in session in Des Moines
and the principal session will be held
at the Slavery today.
The dealers are reticent about dis
cussing the probability of strike
among the soft coal miners. Most OF
them who were interviewed on the
subject expressed themselves as of the
opinion that no strike is likely to take
place They point out the fact that
the miners are all under contract TO
remain at work for the coming year,
and the contracts have been signed in
every state by their officers and by the
officers of the operators. 10 break
these contracts would simply mean
that the operators in the future would
be compelled to cease to make any con-
tract whatever with the miners on the
ground that they We're not responsible
and that the time spent in formulating
the annual agreement is wasted. The
members of the association are dealers
rather than operators, however, to a
great extent, and therefore are not as
directly interested as the operators.
Anthracite coal is difficult to secure,
they say, and soft coal is becoming
scarcer yet.
Mayor Brenton made a short address
to the convention when it assembled on
Tuesday afternoon. He congratulated
the visitors on being in Des Moines
during the Elk's festival week and
hoped that they would all have good
time. He spoke briefly on the impor-
lance of the commodity which they
handled to the business world, and
congratulated them on their prosperity
and the prosperity they We're bringing
to the world at large Mayor Bren-
tons speech was responded to by H. b.
Hayward. of Chicago, and A. Tredick.
of Davenport Both spoke briefly.
Today the convention will discuss
freight rates, weights and other mat
tiers of interest to the trade. The great
object of the association is to secure
rates, and this is the principal
matter discussed at each of the meet
ines. The differential on the Missouri
river business is still a troublesome
factor. 1t is yet alleged that railroads
are inclined to favor their own mines
with lower rates than the joint rates
on other roads tapping competing and
closely related fields.
