Sept. 27.-Cattle-Receipts. IFS; shipments small.
Receipts of cattle this week have been OF only
fair volume, there being a decrease of over 800
compared with last week. nearly 1900 compared
with the same week year ago and 200 compared
with the corresponding week two years ago.
Thus far this year the receipts 1850 larger
than the same period last year. The conditions
have not changed much compared with the pre-
ceding weeks far large percentage OF the
cattle were concerned. The marketing generally
was of class for which there has been very
uncertain demand for long time. and there
were the same irregularities in values that have
characterized the market for several weeks.
Occasionally statesmen could some improve
ment in prices but just often declines were
reported. and changes at all times have been
only temporary. The native stock, especially
in the female butcher line. weakened by the
excessive run of Western stock. and all that had
to sell in competition with that class of cattle
sold about 25c lower. The next grade above
probably did not suffer than 10d15c decline.
and strictly top cattle in their class continued
fully steady to a shade higher. In fact, the best
steers here this week. which. of course. were
much better than any offered for some time past,
were possibly 1odl5c higher. In the female
butcher line small proportion OF the supplies
have been good enough TO sell above 81, while
large number have sold from $325 TO 1890. The
demand for stockers and feeding cattle has been
spasmodic, and statesmen have had a hard weeks
work in finding an outlet for that class. but
finally succeeded in disposng of large supply
at about steady prices for the best sort, and
others were generally considered lower. the de-
cline being variously estimated from loc to 25c.
The highest prices reported this week were $3.50
for steers, S5.2S for cows. $4.75 for heifers and
bulls and $3.50 for calves. The receipts to-day
large usual at this time in the week
and included better kind OF cattle than buyers
expected Saturday. There was fair de-
mand for all the good kinds here. and they were
finally sold at steady prices compared with yes
terday. Sales included steers averaging 1,250 to
1900 lbs s79725. at 81. soQ525, and calves
were weak to Csc lower, with sales at $3G6.o0.

Where Pain Most Hurts.
Parsons Weekly.


Which part of the human body is the
most sensitive to pain?
A sharp definition must be drawn here
between irritation and pain. Irritation is
not pain, but only frequent cause of it.
Thus. a crumb lodged in the larynx near
the vocal cords produces violent irritation
and prolonged coughing, which often re-
suits in actual pain. So. too, fly or speck
of dust in the eye sets up violent irrita-
ton and Inflammation, followed by acute
pain. OF the surface of the body, the
finger tips and the end Of the tongue are
most sensitive. For, instance, a burn on
the fingers is much more painful than one
on the back would be, while one on the
tongue would be more painful still.
Deep wounds are not painful, as a rule
save as regards the surface injury. or
pains not caused by external injuries. neu-
ralgia OF the fifth nerve, the one which
supplies the skin of the head and face, is
the most intense II has frequently driven

ferers have been known 10 cut and even

the dental nerve in tooth drawing also

stance, the expression thrown I'm the
street. But now the newspapers speak OF
an accident as happening in such and such
a street. or they viii speak OF a man as
living in So-and-So street. Is in the
proper word TO use2 Does anybody live in
the street, l imagine the police would not
allow them TO do il. The fact is. think
there Is ordinance against it, III there
isn't there should be. Let's look at the
question little more closely. In the first
place, what particular part in the openings
between buildings in cities may be regarded
as the street? Manifestly that part which
lies between the outer edges OF the side
walk. Probably in legal sense the street
area extends to the property line. But
custom, and even city law for that matter,
has designated the space between the street
line and the property line as the sidewalk.
IL Is for pedestrians while the street. ex-
cept at crossings. is given up exclusively TO
the Of vehicles. street cars. bicycles and
things Of that sort. Taking this view OF
the matter. can we. even by any stretch OF
the imagination. say that any man lives in
q certain street? i think not In order 10
justify the use OF the word In we would
have to assume that the street area ran
back 10 the alley. l do not mean TO say
that other words which are frequently used
in the same connection are correct. Take
on, for instance. IL Is not proper 20 say
that a man lives on Smith street for he
does no such thing The street Is a public
highway. and any man who should attempt
to live on a street would be promptly or
dered To move on by the police on is as

objection. At may be all right when used

papers have their own ideas about things
of this sort. and there Is no sort OF doubt

The September delivery was the leader in

While the demand was we'll supplied, the
close was strong on that month. Trading in

The feature Of the corn trade was the un-
loading by bulls, who have been active on

STRANGE GRAVEYARD LIGHTS.
Watchers I'm q Cemetery.
PHILADELPHIA Ledger

This community is wrought up to a high
pitch of excitement by strange lights which
fit nightly between the old and new Epis-
copal cemeteries. Superstitious persons be-
lieve them to be warnings of some impend-
ing calamity. There are residents who de-
clare that similar lights were seen just
prior to the flood of 1889 and the smallpox
epidemic of 1894.
On Wednesday night Mrs. Shoemaker, an
aged resident, was returning to her home
after spending the evening with a neighbor,
when, nearing a vault in the old cemetery,
she was startled at seeing a brilliant red
light leave the vault, move slowly across
the street directly In front of her and lose
itself in the new cemetery. Badly fright
ened. she made rapid strides for home. but
had taken only few steps when she again
saw the same light some distance away on
a HILL. This. time 1T was waved up and
down in such a manner as trainmen give
signals. Then ii disappeared. Before she
was half way home Mrs Shoemaker fell
and rolled into the gutter. When she re-
gained her feet and senses she saw the
same light apparently hanging in the middle
of the street only few feet from her. AL
most frantic she ran, screaming. TO the
house of neighbor where she recounted
tim Of mischievous boys FRANKS her friends
paid little attention TO the matter.
Thursday morning the story of the lights
flew like wildfire, and before noon several
hundred persons had visited the scene That
night three or four prominent residents
stationed themselves near the cemeteries to
watch for the lights, but were so badly
frightened by a repetition of the scenes of
the previous night that they forgot what
they had assembled for. The following
night and last night the same antics were
Witnessed by hundreds of persons. who had
gathred from all parts of the town, but
before any attempt could be made at cap
ture the lights would vanish, and their
source remains a mystery.
Although no grasses or phosphoric min
erals are known TO exist in this IocaIitv
ex-Sheriff William Ryan and other promi,
nent citizens say they have seen these
lights at various times. and that ali former
efforts to gain clew TO their origin had
proved futile.
