CLASS IS
IN GOOD DEMAND
WESTERN HAY-FEo CATTLE NOT
VERY HEAVY AT OMAHA MAR
KET DURING PAST WEEK.
Part of Load Of Montanas Weighing
Fifteen Hundred Pounds Sold Up
Nearly to Nickle a Pound-lndica-
tons Favor Good Inquiry Right
Along During Spring Months.

South Omaha, Neb., March CLAY,
Robinson & Co. advise as follows con
corning the condition of the stock mar
ket here:
The supply of western hay-fed cat
tie has not been heavy during the past
week. There has been good inquiry
from the country for the better and
heavier classes OF steers suitable to go
right into the feed lots. These have
commanded the better prices, and are
a little higher han n week ago.
These good, heavy, heshy steers for
the above purpose at the present time
are selling at $40 to $4.75; fair to
good, 81. and $40. Steers heshy
enough for beef purposes weighing
1,2OO pounds and upward are also in
very good demand. The better and
leshier kinds are selling now at $3.50
and $i75; fair to good, $4.25 and $3.50,
and a part Of a load of Montanas last
week Weighing 1900 sold as high as
$3.50. This is the highest priced hay
fed steers this winter, outside of a
choice lot of stock steers extra well
bred that brought close to a nickel to
go'to the country.
Butcher Stock Market Weak.
The butcher stock market was rather
weak last week, but little change was
noticeable one way or the other in
these hay-fed cows and heifers. The
better kinds are selling around $685.
and $3.65.
Indications favor a good inquiry right
along during the spring months for cat
tie for feeding purposes. The price
of corn is hardly as high as it was
earlier in the season, and while feed
ers figure on a higher price this spring
no doubt a good many of them will
want to feed their corr on account of
that slump. There also seems to be a
little shortage in the number of cattle
put on feed n this should aid the
demand for hay-feds suitable for beef
to a considerable extent.

NRs. BESSIE coRLEY
BURNED 70 DEATE.
Young Woman's Horrible Death at
Batesburg--Her Remains Broushtto
Columbia Home.

Batesburg, June 29.-Quite de-
plorable tragedy occurred at the Mid
dleburg mills of this place about 6
o'clock yesterday afternoon in which
Mrs. Bessie Corley was so badly burn
ed that she died after a lingering death
in life of seven hours.
4 II seems that Mrs. Corley was try
ing to kindle q fire in a stove prepara-
tory to cooking the evening meal for
herself and husband and experiencing
some difficulty Herewith, she took a
two gallon kerosene can to pour some
of the Oil on the Goals in the stove.
The can exploded and Mrs. Corley was
enveloped in hames; her clothes were
entirely consumed and she was burned
almost to a cinder, yet she lived in
excruciating torture for seven hours
and died about 1 O'Clock this morning.
The house in which she lived was
burned to the ground and the whole
mill village would in ali probability
have been burned had not the wind
been blowing in direction that car
ried the flames and sparks away from
the village.
Mrs, Corley was the wife of Mr.. S.
NJ. Corley and daughter of Mrs. Seay,
of Columbia. She came here with her
husband about nine months ago from
Lexington. She was in vigorous young
womanhood, being only seventeen
years of age. She will be buried this
afternoon at her old home, near Kill
ians, Richland county. She leaves
besides her husband, a mother
one brother, and three sisters to
mourn her awfully and untimely end.
The stricken family have the SYM
pathy of the entire community.
Mrs. Corley before her marriage was
Miss Bessie Seay. She was the daugh-
ter of Mrs. Ellen H. Seay and her
father was accidentally killed several
years ago in runaway in which the
horse ran over the embankment near
the reservoir. She had been married
only year and her husband had re-

What Is It?

For several days recently farmers in the vicinity of Aibertha, Randolph county, have been missing their stock, which strayed into the woods. A number of citizens concluded to search the woods and ascertain the cause of the absence of their stock They armed themselves with shotguns and started for the forest. About 50 farmers, mounted and accompanied by a number of dogs, took part 1n the search. They believed that some wild animal was roaming the woods and was responsible for the disap- pearance of their horses and cattle
 They found plenty of evidence in the way of dead and crippled stock to convince them that some terrible beast was getting in his work, but they were unable to locate the monster Another hunt has been arranged for with a larger crowd, and it is believed the hunters will be more successful.
