The receipts to-day were larger than recently on
Wednesday and show an increase Of about $50
over a week ago, but slight change compared
with a year ago. The consignments included
more good steers than for a long time past, and
on that account the quality in this department
was of a higher standard. Aside from this, how
ever there was perceptible Improvement
The market opened with fair competition be-
tween local packing houses, and initial sales
were made at about steady prices. The feeling.

with year ago The quality generally was az
good as II has been heretofore this week. Al
any source. the market opened with reasonably
fair competition between packers and shippers
and the early business fairly active at fully
steady TO strong prices compared with yesterday
In fact. among the first transactions prices were
considered &c higher than yesterday. AS rule,
however. statesmen would not admit that there
was any quotable advance The supply being
small at the start. practically all changed hands
on basis OF opening prices. Later, however.
the market was influenced by unfavorabie re-
ports from ether places. and. the demand at this
time having been apparently we'll supplied, the
tendency naturally was weaker and buyers wers
Offering unevenly lower prices for a few loads
that came In late. Sales that were made on the
closing market were said TO be at least SC lower
than the opening. and few statesmen declared
they were offered loc lower. very fair clear
ance was finally made, but the market closed
weak. with few loads unsold. sales rAneed
from 81 to $3.50. and the bulk OF the supply sold
at sTl5d7&0, although there were a number OF

 Real estate is considered q safe invest. ment, but not as usually purchased, mere- ly on speculation. If 1t Is bought in a favorable renting locality 1t brings in good returns where the owner lives near it and can personally take care of the property and get the rents. The next best thing is to have a trustworthy agent whom one knows well.
 A lady had lately $500 and plot of land on which several small dwelling houses could be placed. Carpenter work and building material were cheap. The lady took her $500 and had constructed under her own eye and direction q pretty little house, which she rented before It was finished at a price that netted her S20 a month. Now she is building other small houses. In few years she will be we'll to do Her case, however, is exceptionally fortunate. The plot of ground adtofned her own home. she gives her personal att tention to her property. and she lives In rapidly growing community.
 Then, too., you can establish a commer. cial enterprise of your own, mercantile, manufacturing or otherwise. There is something in the industriaf world every woman can do well and knows she can do. That Is the work for her, Women have great business talent undeveloped. Prop erly conducted the poultry business yields line returns.

Banished from Bronx Geological Park

 The latest acquisition in the way of an exribit by the New York aquarium is n vicious looking eight-foot alligator, which was banished from the alligator pool in the reptile house at the Bronx Geological Park for disorderly conduct.
 The man-eater, which now occupies the oval floor pool lately used for the seal, seems to be Respondent over his isola- ton. Viewing him, as he slumbers the hours away with hardly perceptible sign of life the day through, one has to draw considerably on his ims gination to picture him generating enough energy to start and keep his end up in a good sized scrap, but. even with the handicap of a missing leg. for he has but three, the right foreleg being off close to the body. he was continual source of disturbance and strife among his larger fellows in the Bronx institution.
 That gator was bad" said one of the attendants at the Bronx reptile house in answer to an inquiry. land since he has been down there at the aquarium life here has been one long dream of bliss. With him here 1t was-well, everything but that Surely he is one of tho man eating stripe, for he was the 'scrappiest' animal we had in the park. How did he lose the leg? Don't know; he was shy that leg when he was shipped from Flor ida several years ago. Some battle in the lagoons. l suppose.
 Didn't seem to handicap here, though; he would tackle the ten and twelve foot CTS in his pool just as if he had a full set of legs and all of them bear somo mark of his wicked jaws. It got to be 9 regular thing here to be routed out at night by their bellowings when he ran amuck among the other gators, and ev- erybody up here Is glad that he Is now an exhibit of the aquarium"
