be. We had carload after carload on
sale. Sold double the number we
have sold in any previous sale. Prices
were fairly good just few heavy
drafters We're good enough to bring
$200S or better, but on most classes
there\was decline of IS to SO per
head, but this was only to be expected
on account Of the drop in Chicago, ST.
Louis and all eastern markets. In
rally any until about February as the
markets have been heavily supplied
this fall, and the demand has fallen
off very materially. Farmers who ex-
pect to sell their horses between now
and February, must expect to take
lower prices for them. Our market
here is now well established, and will
be found to be up or down just as
the other markets Of the country are
up or down. So you can bring your
stock on for any of our sales and ex-
pect the full market value at that
time. One little change we will make
in the order of selling hereafter is
this: We will sell in the forenoon all
horses consigned by individuals, so
that they may be examined and work.

GETS TEN YEARS
Man Arrested In sIgourney for Enter.
ing Snakenberg Home Sentenced.

ing onakehper9 Rome sentenced.
Sigourney, Oct. 1S-(SpeciaD John
F. Doyle, the man arrested here in
the city one night last summer,
charged with entering the home of
Miss Minnie and\ Miss Lou Snakenberg
In German township, and carrying off
valuables, re-appeared before the
court last Monday afternoon and said
he was guilty of larceny from build
ing In the night time. It will be re-
membered that this young man had
worked on farm in German township
near the Snakerberg homestead up to
the day before he committed the theft
After committing the deed he cut the
telephone wire SO the women could not
use the instrument in calling for help.
They were a little bit uneasy about
leaving the house and going to the
neighbors at such time in the night for
fear the intruder was about some
place outside. Thus notice of the hap
pening was not spread for sometime.
Doyle walked toward Sigourney. Just
as the city marshal was called by the
sheriff to aid in the lookout a strange
man was seen passing down the G. M
& ST.. P, railroad tracks toward
the south, and Mr.. Grimes noti-
fed the sheriff of the fact. The track
passes close to the Jail, SO Mr.. Baty
stepped out and arrested the fellow
within one block Of the Jail doors. The
goods were found on his person. Last
Wednesday when he was arraigned be-
fore the court he plead poverty and the
court appointed ]. 2. Talley to defend
him, and they were given until Thurs
day to plead On the day set they ap-
peared and pleaded not guilty. Monday
afternoon he and his attorney reap
peared in court and he pleaded guilty
to the charge of larceny from build
ing in the night time. Hon. John T.
Scott sentenced him to ten years at
hard labor in the penitentiary at Fort
Madison, and to pay the costs of the
proceedings He was released from
the charge of burglary. 1t seems to
have developed since the passing of
the sentence that Doyle has been in
the penitentiary before, and this will
not be new experience to him.

DULL HORSE TRADE.
General Outside Demand Indifferent at
Decline of Last Week

1cCItno OF last week.
Chicago, Oct. 1S.-The heavy move
ment that characterized this market
last week has shown no betterment
general trade continuing slow at the
decline Of the previous two weeks.
The market is dulled by the liberal
receipts Of common and medium Of
ferings, the kinds in most urgent de-
mand being but in moderate evidence
thus far the current week. The at
tendance of eastern buyers is much
below normal proportions and outside
orders are narrow and Indifferent.
Choice drafters are in moderate de-
mand at $160@210, a decline Of around
$40 in two weeks. Big, rugged feed
ers are in demand at s15O@1SO, with
good loggers selling nominally at $3.50
@1S0, and upward, as many choice
drafters are taken for the northern
lumber industry. There is lull in
demand for expressers at s1sO@165,
with few fancy arrivals changing
hands a point higher. Harness Offer
ings and southern chunks are moder-
ately active at the late decline. Cen
eral trade is slow at the following

FIVE GENERATIONS.
Oregon Man S3 Years Old Has
Hundred Direct Descendants.

There are many grandfathers in
Oregon and several great-grandfath-
ers, but probably John p. Wilson, of
Sellwood. is the only man who is a
reat-grandfather and when II
is considered that he is but SO years
of age, has been married but once,
and with his wife heads a family of
between 160 and $50, it is certain
that in the descendant line he easily
bears the palm, says the oregon
Daily Journal.
Mr.. Wilson crossed the plains in
1853. the same year that George H.
Williams came to Oregon. and has
during his life since been an intimate
friend of Mr.. Williams. For many
years Mr.. Wilson lived on a homested
in Powell valley near Gresham, and
for a time farmed the wild lands of
interior oregon.
He has 10 children, 39 grandchild-
rem and about 120 great-grandchild-
rem, and to pursue the descendant
bee through that many fields is
enough to tax the memory of young
man.
Ordinarily five generations repre-
sents 165 years in the calculations of
genealogists, and in real life a much
longer time is represented, the ma
jority of living men jumping back to
q period around the revolution when
they speak of great-great-grandfat
ers. But Mr. Wilson in his SO years
has seen the fifth generation arrive,
and with his wife anticipates con-
tinuance of good health that will en-
able him to add the sixth generation
to his family of descendants and pass
out of life with a following of imme-
diate descendants that would put to
blush the patriarchs who dwelt in
their tents for 800 years before they
We're gathered with their fathers.

CHASTITY FIND.
Dead Infant Found in Bureau Drawer
at Walla Walla.

With its little hands grasped in the
last agonies of apparent suffocation
its pretty blue eyes closed and sight
less, its limp little form curled up in
bloody sheet wrapped about in an
old gray skirt, a beautiful baby girl
lies cold in death at the undertaking.
parlors of MacMartin & Co., says the
Walla Walla Union. 1t was taken
from a bureau drawer in room al
the Louvre hotel, of Walla Walla,
about IL O'Clock last night and con-
veyed to the police station
The circumstances of it's birth and
death coupled with the manner in
which it was concealed, point strong
ly to the fact that the child was suf-
focated in order to shield its unhappy
mother from disgrace of bringing it
into the world. She is a rather hand
some girl of about 19 years of age
who does not bear upon her face the
marks of dissipation or depravity,
which it would seem would be re-
quired to commit such a monstrous
crime as numbering a defenseless,
though illegitimate babe.
She gave her name to the police
last night as Nellie Mcqueen and
her home up until two months ago as
Spokane. Since that time she has
been working in the Star restaurant
in this city as a waitress. She said
she came here to avoid disgrace of
an exposure among her friends and
acquaintances in Spokane and had
been maintaining herself as best she
could, waiting for the moment to
come when she could go back again
where she is known, free from the
disgrace.
According to her story, she was
confined about noon yesterday, and
was attended by a woman by the
name of Lottie O'Brien, who is en-
ployed as a chambermaid at the Pal
ace Hotel. When seen by the police
last night, the O'Brien woman de-
clared that the child was "still born"
and asserted that she had been called
in the case through a friend of tie
unfortunate woman who came to this
city with her, but is now in Pendle-
ton. and who went by the name of
Miss Baldwin.
