CLAICHE GIRL IS GUILTY.
French Girl Who Killed Gerdr0n to
Testify Against Police.

NEW YORK. March Amid Il scen0
of Unprecedented uproar in IL criminal
tribunal Berthe Claiche. the French
girl charged with killing Emil Gerdron,
whose mistress she had been. pleaded
guilty to manslaughter in the first de-
gree before Justice Davis and Il jury.
1t is said that the girl, hy virtue of an
agreement between the district attor-
ney and her lawyers. is TO testify and
lay bare the system of graft practiced
upon women by dishonest policemen
attached to the Tenderloin station and
to the twice squad"
The entire courtroom was in Il tur-
MOL. and many of the women specta-
tors tainted and added their hysterical
cries to the general uproar.
The Claiche EAST had attained consld-
cradle notoriety through the disclosures
it brought regarding the so called vice
squad of the police department. "
cral policemen were accused by the
defense of being mixed up in the muir
der of Gcrdron, and the prosecution as
serted that Il policeman held Gerdron
while Berthe shot him. The girls story
that Gerdron had forced her into lead
ing Il life of shame that he might live
l~uxuriously upon her earnings and that
she killed him in self defense secured
her much sympathy at first, but V
lations in the courtroom destroyed
most of it. The whole case was n of
sickening disclosures of the under

BACK WITH IMPORTED HORSES
Wisconsin Man Expresses His Ideas
About European Draft Horse Con.


Livestock World-tH. A. Briggs, Of
Elkhorn, Wis, was at the Saddle and
Sirloin Club, the guest OF Col John s.
Cooper, Mr.. Briggs has just returned
from abroad with fresh importation
of Percheron and Belgian horses.
Breeders. on the other side are steadily
becoming more independent and good
horses are scarcer and harder to buy
than they used to be. Belgian mares
especially are held at very high prices.
At the national show he picked out
couple OF young mares he thought he
would like to bring over. 1t turned out
that both were prize winners. The one
taking first in her class the owner
would not price. and the price on the
third prize winner was $4,000. That
gives some idea of the esteem in which
the seed stock of good horses is held In
that country. Even the horses that are
first prize winners at the minor shows
in Belgium are given $50 month
bonus by the government, which jeal-
ously guards and fosters the best
breeding stock.
Mr. Briggs told the Live Stock
World that he thought the black color
craze among Percheron horse breeders
been carried to such an extreme that 1t
is very hard to get the original and su-
perior gray Percherons. MIR. Briggs
thinks that new importers are bringing
over more horses this year, but be-
iieves that many of the older ones are
inclined to make no material increase.

Goosey Gander.

Goosey Gander's name was just plain
Baby Goose" until one day This is
how it happened:
There were five little goslings in the
family. The liveliest one was named
"sBaby Goose" and it was he who was
the naughtiest. If one of his brothers
found a fat worm. Baby Goose would
not let him eat it in peace. If he did
not want it himself he would tell an
other brother to try to snatch it away.
One day Baby Goose saw one Of his
brothers find big, fat worm right on
top Of the ground. AT the same time
he saw what looked like a big bottle
fly, very near his own head! To keep
others from catching the fly Baby
Goose cried:
before Candy swallows it, Then as his
sister fought over the worm with
Candy, Baby Goose opened his big bill
and swallowed the insect alive.
But, oh, dear! 1t was not a bottle
fly at all. 1t was big humble bee!
Have you ever swallowed a humble
bee? If you have you probably remem-
her it!
What a foolish goosey gander you
are!" said his mother, when he ran
crying to her. "Greediness causes
much trouble
''Goosey Gander!" cried his brother
and sisters teasingly. I'VE will call
him Goosey Gander.
1t was long time before Goosey
Gander forgot the sting of that bee.

Prices For Bulk of Steers This
Week Indicated a Good
GsLin
ADVANCE OF FIVE IN HOGS
This Was the Result Of Light Run
and Fairly Good Demand, But Heavy
Packing Grades, Ruled No Better
Than steady-N., sheep Market =
Lack of Offerings.

Chicago, Aug. 1S-'Cattle-There was
no market today. Prices for the bulk
of steers this week have shown a good
gain.
A full five cent advance on the best
grades of hogs was the result of a
light and fairly good demand. Prices
for heavy packing grades ruled no bet
ter than steady.
Countrymen this week have shown
that they are the masters of the hog
situation, in that they landed such
light runs here since the middle of the
week that packers were forced to boost
the range sharply to fill their most ur-
gent orders, and prices stood
10000 higher for the better class Of
offerings than one week ago and 5@10c
better for other grades. The top at
$6.40, compared with $6.221s on Mon
day, which was low day this week, and
indicated 15c gain over one week ago.
The course of the nearby market
will be governed largely by the sup
plies, as the shipping demand has fall
en- off materially lately, owing to the
more liberal runs in the east and local
prices being relatively higher than the
range there, leaving the trade in better
control Of packers than for some time.
Sheep.
There was no market today. This
was dine to lack of offerings. While
chaop made a 1Om1h cent advance
feeders have beer. in strong demand
all week, all that were on the market
being snapped up as soon as offered.
