Unexpected light receipts Of cattle
this week put a different face on the
market, as compared with a week ago.
The big break in beef steers last week,
ranging from 40 to 10 cents, checked
receipts, and market on steers began to
improve Friday, and has been irregul.
arly stronger each day since, and are
now Is to 90 cents higher than low
time last week. Top price this week,
Is 20 today, and o. GO yesterday. Grass
finished steers range from 90 IS TO 81 G5.
Cows, heifers and butcher cattle held
about steady during the week, and
prices are tirmer this week, best heifers
selling at $500 to 81 s., cows 81 80 to
"a 90, meaty gaas' cows and heifars
$2 80 to 50 30, veal calves % 10 to 81 so,
but Gamer are still dull and low.
Stockers and feeders have changed
very little since a week ago. Stockers
and stock calves are vecy low and n
good msny cattle of this class went out
last week that looked worth the money,
stOckers at S2,75 to 81 70, and stock
calves had the wide range of sl.OO TO
$3 90, but most sales were at 81 90 to
81 20 Feeders were more wanted, and
fair to good ones sold at 50 90 to 80 10,
and choice cattle Of good weights sold
at $40 to "a 25. Good corn cattle will
probably sell higher. but shipper
go slow on other kinds.
Hog market closed last week after q
series of reverses. Yesterdays marke,
opened 10 to ID cents higher, and mos,
sales were made on this basis, bu,
market weakened at the close. Thes,

A Lady Judge.

Lemhi county, probably, has the
only lady member of the judiciary III
the state. Mrs. George Lewis of
Yellow Jacket is duly qualified
justice of the peace. Mrs. Lewis is
rather remarkable parsonage. She
is true mountaineer, and hunts
woman, IN the truest sense of the
terms. Her house Is adorned with
trophies of her deadly rife work,
and her skill with the camera. She
has been acting postmistress for a
district as large as the state of New
York for ten years, and the only
! permanent lady resident of the same
extensive domain for nearly all of
this period.
She has often made long trips
through the mountains with saddle
and pack horses. She can throw
the diamond hitch, with as much
dexterity as she can turn a fapjack
in the air. With all her unusual
accomplishments she has the more
common womanly traits in high
degree. She is faithful wife, a
loving mother and a hospitable and
gracious entertalner.-Salmon Re-
corder.

The Increase of Crime.

In the United States last wear
there were 8976 murders and homi-

In 1881, when the population was

crimes of this class. The high re-
cord was reached IN 1896, when

ingly set forth by comparisons with
the criminal records of the two lead
ing cities of Europe. London,
with an area of 6se square miles
and a population Of 6, 500, 900 had
"a murders last year.
Chicago, with less than one-third
of the population and area covered
by the London or metropolitan
police, had 1913 honlicides.
The loss of life through crime is
made more prominent when COM
pared with fatalities in war and on
railroads. In three years the homi-
cides in the United States numbered

MOHLER TO TRY 1T.
Washburn Boy VIII Make Effort to
Get Cecil Rhodes Scholarship.

Frank Mohler, who has been editor
in-chief of the Washburn College Re
view during the past winter, mas re
signed and has announced that he will
devote the remainder of the year to
preparation for taking the examination
for the Cecil Rhodes international
scholarship 1t Oxford university in
England. The scholarship carries with
it an annuity of $500 per year for two
years and two visits to the continent of
Europe with expenses. One of the Stip-
ulatlons of the Cecil Rhodes scholarship
contest rules is that candidates must
make public announcement of their
candidacy several months before the
examination. The appointment is open
to any college student, one being ap-
pointed in each state in the country.
Mohler has held high rank i'll his
class at college. He is a member of the
senior class and will receive a degree
from WaSnburn next June. He is
son of the late Martin Monler, fol- ner
secretary of the state board of asEicu1-
ture, and is an exceptionally able stu
dent.
In consequence of Mothers with
drawal from the Review staff. several
changes have been made. Miss Matte
WeStenhaver, who has been associate
editor, is at the head of the staff for
the present week, but after this week
Ray Coldren, who has been in charge of
the local department, will assume that
position. The Review editorship is
managed by means of some rather
complicated machinery. and it is said
that the roundabout election of Cold
rem is the consequence of political ma
neuvering to keep control of the paper
or the part of the Washburn College
Literary society. Coldren is one of the
clever writers of the college and has
hads some newspaper experience. John
Van DeMark is slated for the associate
editorship, and Ludwig Katterfelt, the
promoter of the Socialist club. will be
put in charge of the local column. Miss
Westenhaver will withdraw from the

ON APRIL 6.
Date for Hearing Curtis-An-
thOny Contest.

The contest between Congressman
Curtis and D. r. Anthony, jr., as to
which shall go on the Republican ticket
as Republican nominee for congress in
the First district, will be decided by the
contest board on April 6. This was
agreed upon by the attorneys of both
parties and by the members of the state
election board last Monday afternoon.
This will throw the decision over near
" a month after the state convention.
The members of the election board do
not regret this, for by that time they
will be safe from a fight within the
party, no matter which way they are
called upon to decide
In the meantime the evidence in the
contest will be submitted affidavits.
Anthony is given until March 10 to file
the afidavits on his side and Curtis is
given until March . to file his affidavits.
Anthony will then have until April 2 to
file rebuttal affidavits.
The main reason given for the long de-
lay in the matter is the fact that Attor-
ney General Coleman has a great amount
Of work hand for the next few weeks.
Just now he is tied up in the Dewey trial
at Norton, which will probably take two
three weeks or longer, and in the
meantime other work is accommodating.
MI. anthony was represented before the
hoard by =. E. Crane and Devere RAT
ter of Holton. Mr.. Rafter is Judge Brod-
erick's law partner. Mr. Curtis was rep

TO USE BLIND HEADER.
Board of Education Adopts cite" for
Manual Training Building

The question came before the board
of education last night as to whether
the universal tie" the blind header"
or the English bond" should be used
in the construction of the walls of the
new manual training building.
Whether bows and four-in-hands had
anything to do with universal ties,
whether blind headers were any kin
to wheat headers and corn stovers. and
whether English bond" was any reIa-
ton TO legal cap. was a question with
the board. The boards consulting en-
gineer, w. G. Hollway. explained that
the different systems of tying the outer
and inner shells of brick wall are va
riously known as ties bonds and head
ers. The board believed that the blind
header was the proper device. so it
will be used on the new manual train
ing high school, and when the walls are
going I'D the board will be able to dis
cover what it is
