beef there Is of as high quality or high
er than II Is here. killed and packed in
an excellent manner, and handled by
the first-class shops. at what they can
afford to, and for a reasonable and
legitimate profit In Salt Lake the
prices are universal and extend every
where. and surely the choicest steers
and selected beef, that IL said to justi-
fy the fancy price, Is hardly served over
every block In the city.
The defense on quality is one that
goes well, for buyer who cares for
his table, would dislike to have any
thing served that was not as good as
could be bought In the case OF the
cripple-foot shoemaker who was ar
rested In New York. and who operated
here for long time, It was seen TO
what limits people would go who
thought they were getting their moneys
worth In extra quality

gate the matter beyond the retailer in

of that into the ranges, where the SELL
ers make the original profit ON beef

Butte butchers can buy meat cheaper
~
ton is apparently a promising one to
turn the light on. and one In which
contributions would be OF value from
wholesalers. stock rasers, and re-
tailers, and II there Is a justification
for the high figures here, It has a right
to let itself be known. IL there IL a
holdup behind the retailers that forces
them to their present prices that also
would make good reading to an ex-
pectant public that Is getting more and
more where It Is hard to live, owing to
the prices of combinations In every
field where he must make purchases.
THE wAGE-EARNER.
So far, American wage earners have
had good pay, and have been able to
take few mutton chops home at night,
and still have car fare left from the
days wages.
In the east. however, the balance OF
money is getting on the wrong side, and
the common citizen Is getting more and
more towards debt, despite the general
prosperity, Recent magazine litera-
ture is calling attention to the condi-
ton, and there Is general demand
for the trusts, and the unions, which
seem both to use their power to equal
extremes, to get down to doing things
ON basis OF what they can afford to
rather than for what they can get. 1t
is declared to be the only permanently
safe way, as hard times now would
starYe out whole big class, before 1t
would force prices down to their leglt-
Innate level, among mechanics and
trade people IN general.
STARTLING MEAT PRICES.
The meat question. which is partic-
ularly under consideration here is one
field In which explanations could be
made with apparent profit to all con-
cerned.
The following table shows the cuts Of
meat ard their retail prices In different

In salt Lake average more than 100
per cent, over those of the other cities.
With the exception of leg of mutton
on which the price is nearly the same,
there are none reasonably similar,

WHAT BUTCHERS PAY.

The butcher in Salt Lake usually
pays about s cents pound for whole
beef critters, delivered to his shop,
dressed. He divides his animal in a
general way into three parts, consisting
OF the loin, the bullock and the fore
quarter Hotels sometimes secure
cheap meat by buying whole critters,
and selling back the most expensive
cuts at IL cents or better, and thus Sc
curing the remaining cuts at cheaper
than six cents a pound, average. But
nowhere IN the butchers price list Is
beef under cents pound. Not In this
schedule quoted above are the tender
loin and porterhouse stakes, for which
90 cents and 22i. cents are charged
respectively Going down to the neck
cuts, and the common steak cuts, the
prices etil stay around seven and eight
cents per pound.

POSSIBLE PROFITS.

The building up of paper profits Is an
attractive game for newspaper writer's
In the east these days. the private car
lines are consequently rated AS great
profit makers MIR. Armour has led
back by offering an annual salary OF
something like $4,000 to the man who
can deliver the prohts out Of his ear
lines, which the newspaper men credit
him with making. The figures on Salt
Lake beef that are at hand, make
profits to the retailer look pretty big,
but he can no doubt furnish figures. II
he Is disposed, which cut down his bal
ance considerably. Here are some Of the
figures:
A butcher gets his beef cents a
pound An average critter weighs say
500 pounds, although they actually
range from $50 to 400 pounds. The
wholesaler divides it into four quar-
ters. and gets $40 for 1t. The re-
taller sells It out In six general divls-
ions. These are: bullock. about 10
pounds; ribs. so pounds loin, 100
pounds; brisket, sb pounds; chuck. go
pounds; and shanks, 81 pounds. ffs
income IN bullock, at about IL cents
average, 5000; ribs, at Is cents. $50;
loin at is cents. SIS; briskets at cents
1896; chuck at 10 cents, So. shanks at
say cents, Sl,fN. ms DllngS the TO-
tai for the beef to $3.50. which Is only
a little less than 100 per cent profit for
cutting up the beef II is well known
that retailers handle many staple food
stuffs for 10 and 90 per cent profit, and
seldom make 80 per cent. Merchandise
concerns figure likewise that so per
cent Il a "clover" proposition. and
here would be an apparent raise Of just
three times what IL reasonable, and
twice what is generally considered clo-
yer.
One prominent shop In Salt Lake em-
ploys a cutter from whom II was learn
ed. on a casual statement. that he cut
up ~ steers day and thought this
was fair average for the three or four
bigger shops. This would make their
income on beef alone, apparently.

excess of the cost OF the beef. The

SLAVERY IN ENGLAND.
In 1772 1t Was That the Courts De-
clared 1t to Be Illegal

IN XJ72 IL was That the Courts De.
clared 1t to Be Illegal
In 1772 slavery was declared by the
judges to be contrary to the law Of
England. But during the years i'm
mediately preceding this date slaves
were commonly sold in England. In
the previous year Birmingham paper
advertised for sale "a negro boy,
sound. healthy and of mild disposi-
tion." while in the same year another
paper records (and condemns) the sale
short time previously at Richmond
Of negro boy for f32. This is be-
lieved to have been the last actual sale
Of slave that took place In England.
White slavery was very common In
the English colonies In the seventeenth
century. Cromwell seized Irish boys,
girls and women "by the thousand"
and sold them in the slave markets
Of Barbados" as may be seen in num-
berless places IN the state papers of the
period. He treated some Of his royalist
opponents In England and Scotland in
the same way. A similar fate befell
many Of the supporters of Monmouth's
rebellion in the west of England. In
the latter case. as Macaulay tells us,
the ladies Of the court including the
queen. made large profits on the sales.

talking with her class on the subject
Of mythology, read to them as follows:

builder for the gods Of Mount Olym-

their furniture" etc. The following
day the subject Of the preceding day
was given as language lesson, and as
no mention was made of Vulcan the
teacher asked the class who built the

TWO SCOTCH STORIES.
Origin of the Macintyres and the
bloody Hand Legend.

Origin OF the Macintyres and tAe
bloody Hand Legend.
Ny father, says a writer In Black
woods Magazine, had no end Of anec-
dotes about our ancestors, parts Of
which remember, though was only 6
schoorOom child of under fourteen
when 1 heard him relating them. 1
was, however, old enough to feel keen
ly interested in them. One story that
impressed me very much was related
to account for the origin Of the Clan
Macintyre. A party Of Macdonells on
one occasion were out in a boat when
knot Of wood sprang out, causing
serious leak, whereupon one of the par
ty stuck in his finger to fill the hole
and then cut it Off with his dirk, thus
saving the life of the whole party.
From this circumstance his descend
ants were called the Macintyres, or
sons of the carpenter.
Another story which heard my IA
ther tell relates to the bloody hand
which appears In our coat of arms. A
doubt having arisen as to which Of two
brothers q certain estate belonged, it
was agreed that he whose flesh and
blood should first touch the property
was to be regarded as the rightful own
er. Accordingly the two young men
started in two boats for the land in
question. One Of them, seeing that he
was losing the race, when near the
shore pulled out his dirk, cut off his
hand and threw 1t on land, thus estab-
fishing his right to the property, as his
flesh and blood had touched 1t first.
