WHAT TEDDY IS
DOING TO BUTCHERS

The investigation of the Chicago
stock yards and the revelations and
disclosures Herewith have had
quite an effect on the local con-
sumption of meats, according to the
claims made by the local butchers.
The people seem to have suddenly
gotten the notion that they can live
without mean and before long, il
the situation keeps up, there will
be vegetarians only here. How
ever, som eof the local dealers are
dealing in home-slaughtered mats
only, as appears from their adver-
tisemcnts in this paper, and, of
course, as soon as the repulsion sub
sides, will he doing a better business
than ever. W. B. Freeland. at 103

nounce the home-slaughtering feat

"Teddy Roosevelt has played h
with the butcher business" said a
well known man in that line of
trade today. F'You have seen those
communications he has sent to
Congress? Well. that's what's do
ing it" he continued. tDo you
notice any falling off in your shop
or are you just expecting it?" he
was asked. "Do I notice any fall

about thirty-fve to forty dollars a

THE PRICE

A movement is on here that is
going to prove one Of the most un-
popular ever undertaken in this city.
The idea is to change the price Of a
shave, from 10 cents to Is cents
straight
Nathan Ogden, Of the Traders
shop, has the agreement and is cir
culating II among the proprietors of
the barber shops. Among those
who have refused to sign it is f. j.
Welch and he states that under no
condition will he charge 15 cents
for shave at his Third street shop.
as he has a Is cent shop in the
Waldo, He says he pays the BARRIERS
one dollar each more than the union
scale and thinks 10 cents is enough
to charge for a shave. He takes the
position that the price should not be
raised as working mems wages would
not justify it.
MT. Weich Is not the only one
who opposes such movement, but
the public in general will be found
against it, and for the benefit of
patrons, it is hoped the boss BARRIERS
Of the city viii enter into no such an
agreement, and, if they all do, other
shops ought to be started. where

QUOITS
LATEST
RECREATION

Another good old fashioned sport
that is coming back along with the
general revival of athletic exercises.
is the time-honorcd game Of pitch
ing horseshoes or qnoits. Already
two strong teams have been formed
in the city and a tournament of
games arranged for, the first of
which viii be played Friday after
noon.
The formation Of the clubs and
the Inauguration Of the toprna-
ment came about as the result Of a
conversation which occurred one
nigth this week at Day.s 4 Barrett's
cafe. A number ofSmerchants we're
seated in Che cafe-discussing matters
in general, when one OF the party
deplored the lack Of exercise, 50 es-
sential to good health, that vas the
lot Of all business men. Particular
ly at the present time the rush Of
trade, which is being experienced
by the merchants, occasioned no
doubt by the liberal policies which
are the keynotes of this cities pros
perity. All of the business men
felt the need of exercise, but were
at loss what form of exertion
would best suit their needs. One
gentleman suggested, triie sar-
castically, that walking, provided
the person walked away from the
city would be an excellent course of
physical culture.
Col. Thomas Francis, of Wilson
burg, the exponent of the strenu-
Gus baseball life, who was present,
suggested that the merchants take
10 pitching horseshoes. He cited
that the business men of Wilson
burg always devoted an hour or
two to this pleasing relaxation in
the afternoon. As a result of the
suggestion the two rival clubs have
been formed.
The Pike street merchants are
captained by Mr.. Joseph I4atstetter.
and they have laid off superb ground
on Pike street in front Of the Man
haitian cafe. Mr.. Dell Fuller, Of
the Traders news stand, win boss
the Main street club, their grounds
being on Main street in front of the
court house.
The tournament games will be
played each afternoon beginning at
two o'clock, alternating between the
grounds Of each team. The merSs
hers Of the teams, as well as tse
general public, who will be inter
ested spectators, expect, to derive
much amusement from the contest.
No betting or gambling upon the re-
suits win be allowed, and every
thing will be done to conduct the
games so that the busiest merchant
can participate.
The result Of this innocent
amusement is sure to be benefc-
ial TO the health Of the merchants.
and after all is said and done what
more should any one, merchant or
otherwise desire.
The motto OF every business man
in the city from this time on should
be-''let us have health"
