Those among the readers OF
The News who have passed the
fiftieth annual milestone on LIES

men who have put IN the greater
part of this period in West Tex

VARYING diet of the days before
railroads. Tue days when meat,
apiack bread and coffee form
I'd the menu for seven days out
of every week. The extras to
this. if any, consisted in a few
more cups of coffee minus sweet
ening and cream during inter
walls. Nominating along this
line, the question sometimes
arises, were men more hale and
hearty those days. or, is it mere
ly supposition OF US old-tlmers:
On this subject, an old frontiers
man in Denver Field and Farm,
says:
''On the Plains we had but
three articles of diet-meat,
bread in form of fapjacks, and
coffee. The amount OF meat we
ate seems almost incredible.
'In October | shot large, fat
COW elk. and as the weather was
quite cool kept the entire car
cass with several gallons OF fat.
In a little over week three of
US ate the entire animal and
made soup of the bones. At
each meal we fried hapjacks in
the suet and drank two Or three
cups Of coffee apiece at morning
and evening as well as at noon,
if we had time to cook. We
usually had sugar but never
milk. We bought the best green
Rio coffee and roasted it our
selves in Dutch. over-d week ;
supply al a time-ofteD pound
ing it in a tin cup instead OF
grinding it. So long as we had
an abundance of coffee there
seemed TO be no limit TO our
physical endurance. Neither
myself nor any Of the men IN my
employ used liquor, although
we could buy an excellent artl-
Gle OF moonshine for 50 a barrel.
I'VE could as well have left
our rifles at camp As to start on
trip without coffee. The last
half of the winter Of 1862 ] spent

ment, referred to in The News
article last week in dealing
with THE cattle business, i
meant that care which brings
the best results in cold cash.
The very same rule applies to
this line OF business as any
any other. The merchant if he
would succeed must not rely al
together upon his own individual
tastes and inclinations. but
upon the wants and demands OF
the market be caters TO. and
so with the ,mau who deals in
cattle-he must consult the mar
ket or be the loser.
The world : markets today
demand an animal OF good color
and form, with weight in pro-
portion TO age and evenly dis
tributed meat-a streak OF lean
and a streak OF tat, not tallow in
great "go0s" here and there and
lean by itself. There Is also a

are out two essentials under

these propositions, to- wit, high

indispensable and at the same

DAUGHTERS" MAY SEPARATE.
One Faction of Ohio Women InstalIs Officers
While Other Holds Separate Session.

The dove Of peace seemed 10 brood over the
Daughters Of Ohio yesterday. so calm, so fraught
with good will were the exercises by which the
new roster Of officers was installed and beautiful
loving cup presented TO Mrs c. c. Shayne, the re-
firing president. So great the overflow OF
Sororal amiabliy after the late turbulent passages
that everybody rose and sang "Auld Lang Syne-
That was after Miss Laura A Skinner had pre-
scented the loving cup subscriptions for which had
been received from the whole organization two
months ago, before the recent unpleasantness.
Mrs Shayne choked up when she tried to thank
the Daughters, but some cried just at the op-
portune moment s''Tiurrah for Mrs Shayne! That
nerved her up to making a pretty little speech OF
thanks Then the club went On to plan for caro-
party on the afternoon Of January and an evening
reception February 90 There were about fifty
women present, mostly supporters Of Mrs. Emma
Beckwith, the newly elected president
Meanwhile Mrs. Charles Austin Bates and group
of her supporters, with Mrs. John L Trow, whom
they had retained as legal adviser, were holding
meeting in another room the first floor. The
purport Of this meeting may be summed up in the
words OF one member, We shall retire from the
club" Whether they will draw large following
after them and set UP the inevitable opposition club
remains to be seen. Developments are promised at
the meeting they have set for Friday.
