CATTLE-Receipts this morning were
quite liberal but still somewhat smaller
than a week ago. The receipts for the two
weeks show a falling of OF almost 5000
head as compared with the two daye OF
last week. The smaller receipts have put
the market into a good strong position.
Beef steers this morning opened a little
slow, as buyers were inclined TO wait for
late trains before taking hold worry freely.
Still the market was just about steady
and by midday pretty much everything In
sight that was at all desirable was dis
posed of. The market for the two days
this week has been In very good conot-
ton considering the fact that there has
been an easier tendency at other selling
points.
Buyers had an idea that they could get
their COW stun a little lower this moI MIN 4
and FIRST bids were made in accordance
with that belief. A little later as 1t be-.
came apparent that the demand was good,
the trade became fully steady ON all de-
sirable kinds at least.
There were quite good many stockers
and feeders carried over in the hands of
spectators yesterday and most regular
buyers started out this morning bidding
easier prices. As was the case, however,
with some other kinds of cattle IL did not
seem an easy matter TO get prices down
and desirable feeders so I In practically
the same notches as yesterday. Common
and undesirable kinds were slow and
rather hard to move, but that is the case
almost every day.

SHEEP-Receipts of sheep this morning
were quite liberal. although smaller thaA
week ago by about forty cars The re-
ceipts to date, as will be noted from the
table, show a considerable failing on az
compared with the corresponding Two DAYS
OF last week
port the market looked rather slow and as
reports from other selling points were
not at all reassuring, prospects seemed 10
be very good for the market at TINS point
closing lower. II did not turn out that
way. While the trade was ~ no time
very active, buyers kept takinS the OF
ferings and at the close there was very
little LETT. In fact the barn was prsS-
tically cleared. barring only lew ouus
and ends While some sales looked llttle
lower the general market was ABOUT
steady, there being not enough chahse III
any direction to quote.
This morning the market opened IN
about the same condition as yesterday
The bulk of the receipts consisted OF Ieeu-
ers and as there was considerable looklhs
around to be done as well as good deal
slow, Still prices remained in about the
same notches as yesterday, with desiraote
kinds OF both sheep and lambs In g"ou
demand.
IL would be hard work to imagine a
more satisfactory sheep and lamb market
| than has existed at this point rlgnt
| through the range season up to date. Al
| though receipts at times have pecn eXces
| sive, they have not at any time eN-

In an old collection Of matronly sto-
ries entitled The Gospel Of the Dis
taft" printed at Bruges in l47o, this
passage occurs: when Il stork builds
her nest over a chimney 1t Is sign
that the proprietor shall have wealth
and long life" Ancient beliefs admit
ted that the stork protected buildings
against lightning. 1t is holy bird.
and in certain German towns the ar
rival Of the storks, heralds OF spring,
was announced with joyous blasts by
the watchman on the tower. What Is
certain is that which Michelet says of
the swallow may be applied to the
stork, HE has taken not only our
house, but also our hearts"
Legends go still further. They con-
slider storks as the incarnation OF de-
parted souls. In that metamOrphosed
capacity they have for mission to
search the bottom Of wells for the souls
Of newborn infants. In the whole Of
northern and central Germany they
have their baby wells Hamburg, too;
had her "kindelbrunnen" This naive
faith has its origin In ancient mytholo-
gy, which represents the stork, Jointly
with the peacock, as the favorite bird
Of Juno, goddess Of maternity-French
OF Maurice Engelhart.

Abdul Hamid insists upon 1t that ev-
cry ruler or other political parsonage
should die 4 natural death Other
manners of death are not recognized"
officially in Turkey. When King Hum
bert was assassinated at Monza the
Turkish newspapers announced this
sad event in the following form: king
Humbert left the hall amid the frantic
cheers of the people. The king, much
affected. bowed several times and to
all appearance was Immediately dead"
When the late shah of Persia w2s as
sassinated the Turkish papers said:
"In the afternoon the shah drove to his
summer palace and there complained
Of Illness. His corpse was sent to Te-
heran." one paper, however. exceeded
all others In simplifying the piece Of
news by publishing this absurdity:
The shah felt little Ill. but finally
his corpse returned to the palace"
This phrase was too much even for the
Turks. who have retained it to this
day as one Of their proverbs. dundee
