CATTLE-There was fair run OF cattle
here for a Thursday. Several OF the trains
did not arrive until late, so that no great
number was on sale at any one time, The
market as a whole was In very satisfactory
condition.
Beef steers Of good quality were In de-
mand and sold freely at good, strong
prices; in fact the general trade might be
described as a good, strong ana active
market There were a number OF loads
in the yards good enough TO bring 800 and
better. shippers will bear In mind that
when top cattle are selling at such high
prices buyers are very apt to make a con-
siderable distinction between them and the
medium kinds. For that reason common to
medium kinds OF cattle are not showing as
much Improvement as are the better grades,
nor are they in as good demand.
Cows and heifers were In light supply
and sold freely at fully steady to strong
prices. The early trains were all disposed
| OF in very good season in the morning
There were not enough stockers or feed
ers TO talk about, but the few on sale
| brought fully steady prices.

sHEBP-sheep are coming in quite lib
orally this week. the arrivals being so far
the heaviest Of the season. As compared
with year ago there is a very large gain
In the receipts this week. While the re-
ceipts today were quite liberal they did
not arrive at the yards until well along
toward midday, which made the market
extremely slow and dull. The market at
this point ls in rather peculiar condition
owing TO the fact that the week started
out with prices at such a high point Buy
ers are unable to forget that the same

An OXFORD STUDENT
A GLIMPSE OF COLLEGE LIFE
IN ENGLAND.
An American Students Impression Of
the Famous University-culture
and Not Crsmming- The
Air Of Ease.

/ The first thing that strikes an Amer
lean student beginning study at this ia
nous university, is that everything is
80 awfully English. you know.
There is the hospitality. there is the
daily afternoon tea, and there is the
wine drinking. Also. what specially i'm.
presses the American is the large ease,
the time enough-very different from
the strenuousness Of many seats OF
learning
We were not little interested In
reading a recent article on "0ur Rhodes
Scholars at Oxford" and noting what
impression the air Of ease had made on
one American student. This young gen.
tleman observes: ''If a man seeks for
mere book learning 1t would perhaps be
wiser for him to go to Chicago, Paris or
Heidelberg-where he can have his
wants served strictly la carte in mod
ern style-than to come to Oxford.
What oxford has to give student is of
a nature quite different from what any
American. French or German university
can Offer" And then the writer goes
on to tell us that the Oxford degree does
not mean that so many dusty tones have
