satisfactory to sellers for several
days. Demand was fully equal to the
supply. Sales ranged from s6.25 TO
$685.. and the bulk of the supply sold
at s625@6

There was little change in the cat
tie situation, compared with yester-
day. Receipts were comparatively
small and the percentage of good
stock was considerably below require
ments. The market opened with
good general demand for cattle that
had quality and fat. These sold
promptly at strong prices compared
with yesterday-10@15c higher than
earlier in the week. The market for
common to medium grades was no
better, and a number of CRASHED cat
flo wara y1pcoId There was a steady
market for good stockers and feeders
Bulls were steady; calves strong to
25c higher.

New York, oct, 1s.--The Evening

Havana, reporting more than 100 per-
sons are dead from the cyclone there.
The cruiser Brooklyn was torn from
her moorlngs and thrown upon the

The Evening kilograms Havana dis
patch IL as follows.
over 100 are dead today from
the worst cyclone which has ever WIS.,
tied this city. The whole American
fleet was menaced, and the cruiser
Brooklyn torn from her moorlng and
thrown upon the shore.
Ninety-four OF the fatalities are con.
fined to natives. while foreign residents
are reported killed.
More than 100 tents in Camp Column
bia have been blown 10 atoms, houses
unroofed and one trooper probably
fatally hurt
Fortunately the storm gave every.
body about half an hours warning and
when the blast arrived the marines on
shore had sought shelter In the war
ships. All but the Brooklyn rode out
the storm. THESE SHIPS Included the
Minneapolis, Texas, Denver and
Prairie.
When the tempest reached It's height
buildings were shaken as with AN earth
quake, street cars were washed from
their tracks, windows were blown In
like paper and roofs and doors swept
away
Several OF the smaller ehouses
were blown from their foundations and
were wrecked. These were situated
I'm the poorer district and were the
causes OF so many deaths among ma
tlves.
II Is feared that great loss of life
occurred In the interior, especially In
Pinar del Rio and on an Island at Arte-
mesla.
The wind is estimated 10 have blown
at the rate of so miles an hour
The greatest money loss viii come
from the damage done TO shipping.
Great waves enguIfed about 81 lighters

smashed against the wbarves.

THE CAPE BUFFALO.

The hunter who wishes to put his
nerve to the most severe test possible
had better leave the elephant and do
in search of the Cape Buffalo. The lat
ter is the real king of the forest; the
much vaunted lion is fool Decide him,
a low coward. A man may have shot
lions without feeling a tremor, and
yet lose his GOODNESS when he sees q
buffalo preparing for charge. The
bulk of the creature, the enormous
mass of frontal bone which protects
his head, even from nickelplated bull
lets, his ferocity, cunning and agility,
place him in class by himself; for
no other beast possesses such a com
bination of offensive and defensive
qualities. An unwounded buffalo will
often attack a man on sight; while
one which has been hit, but not dis
abled, becomes a veritable incarna-
ton of vindictiveness. Sometimes he
will come laundering down immediate
ly after being touched by the bullet;
but more often he will pretend to run
away, then double round, pick up the
track of the hunter who is following
him, and charge from behind; or.
hidden in some clump of bush, he NAV
await his pursuer, and rush out on
him as he passes.-Stanley P. Hyatt

CAUSE OF ALARM.

Il preached a funeral sermon at one

custom.
THE undertaken was a man of ner-
vous temperament, and as the after
noon was going he began to be anxious
to be on the way to the cemetery. He
finally whispered to one of my mem
bers: Does your minister always
preach as long as that at funeral =
Well said the brother, that is a
good sermon.
" Yes said the undertaken, the
sermon is all right, and 1 believe in the
resurrection, but am afraid if he does
not stop pretty soon I will not ger
this man buried in time.
