FEEDER DEMAND BUYERS
SHOW MORE INTEREST AND
MARKET ACTIVE.

All markets reported very liberal
and prices were generally called steady
to dime lower. The supply was
good last week at all points. While
there was no material increase in
ter tone and the movement was good.
Packers were good buyers OF anything
they could use and good beef closed
firm to little stronger than the pre-
steers sold at 81 % on Monday while
another string brought S4. 10 IN Wed
nesday. These were choice, however.
and most of the fair to good beef steers
sold up to s. Is with the bulk at 81. %
to 50 So. Bulls and veal calves were
in light supply and prices about steady
with the close of week ago
The trading in feeders and stockers
was active last week. The proportion
of this class of steers was liberal.
Country buyers were more numerous
and local order buyers also showed
more interest in the market. The
movement was active at strong prices
and good clearance made daily, bulk
OF the steers going direct to the
country A Kansas feeder bought a
string of Routt county steers at "a. 10
, freight paid to the Missouri river
This was the best sale reported, but
| these were choice. and bulk of the
offerings sold at 81. 90 to 49, with a
few up to S3. so. We are expecting a
big feeder trade on this market this
fall. Eastern feeders realize that it
pays to come here and get their steers
from first hands before they have been
hammered around the markets They
can also get the benefit of through
billing with feed in transit privileges
and can thus afford to pay more for
steers here than they could to buy on
eastern markets and ship back to the
feed lots.

An Order For Oysters.
In came Cy Hopkins. wrapped in a

death, but there wasn't room enough
around that stove to warm bis little
finger
But he didn't get mad about it; he
just said to Bill Stebblns, who kept the
store. "Blll. got any raw oysters"
Yes, Cy."
"Well, just open dozen and feed
'em to my hoss."
Well, Stebbins never was scared by
an order from man whose credit
was good, as Cy's was, so he opened
the oysters an took them out, an the
whole crowd followed to see a horse
eat oysters Then Cy picked out the
best seat near the stove and dropped
into 1t as if he had come to stay, as
he had.

and the storekeeper said, "Why, Cy,

Won't he? Well, then, bring 'em

Evans and Hoey.
When Charley Evans and Bill Hoey
Travelled together, they had no end Of
good natured banter between them.
Once when Hoey saw Evans mixing
lemon Juice and water for a gargle he
asked. What are you doing that for,
Charley"
'Oh, for my singing"
Suppose you put some in your ear,
then maybe you'll be able to find the
key"
While they were crossing the ocean
Evans came on deck one day dressed
in the latest summer fashion-duck
trousers, straw hat, etc.-and asked
Hoey, "Hov- do you like me, Bill?"
well, all you need to do now is to
have your ears pierced" was the reply
Evans always carried the money for
both, and the two men had fancy for
wearing trousers of the same material,
though of different sizes, for Evans
was slighter than his partner. One
day Hoey fell on hard luck. He had
been to the Derby races, where pick
pocket relieved him of his watch and
his money too. They We're to start for
America next morning, and Evans had
plenty of money and return tickets
also, yet Hoey was so cut up by his
losses that he went to bed early and
tried to drop asleep. This did not
work, so after tossing for several
hours, by which time Evans had re-
tired, he got up and began to dress
himself. But, to his horror. his figure
seemed to have swelled In the night.
This was the last straw. He woke
his partner and with tears in his eyes
and his voice, too, he said, Charley
besides all my hard luck today, I'm
getting dropsy."

"go into the other room and take of

Irving and Mansfield.

E. S. Willard tells the following story
Of Charles Glenny of Irving's Lyceum
company: 1.-The Merchant of Venice"
was in rehearsal, and Glenny did not
repeat the lines, Take me to the gah
lows, not to the font" to the liking of
Irving, so the latter said In the kindly
manner he always maintained at re.
hearsals:
NO, no, Mr.. Glenny, not that way.
Walk over and touch me and say,
Take me to the gallows, not to the
font The line was rehearsed several
times, but unsuccessfully.
Finally Irving became discouraged
and said, "Ah, well; touch me-"
Irving witnessed Richard Mansfield's
performance of Richard I'LL" in Lon
don, and by invitation went back to
see the actor In his dressing room.
Mansfield had been almost exhausted
and was tanning himself, but Irving's
approach revived him, and natural an
ticipation Of compliment from so ex-
alted source was absolutely stimulat-
ing.
But for the time being all Irving did
was to slap Mansfield playfully ON the
back and exclaim in the inlmitable
Irving tone. "Ahal Ysu sweaE
