Among the most ancient OF the titles Of
nobility borne by the great folk Of the
earth is that which adorns the Prince Of
India who comes to look upon this western
most outpost Of that Aryan migration
whose beginning was not far from his W
domains. Kings and rajahs, emperors and
shahs, there have beer many in the lists OF
principalities and powers; but there has
been only one Gaekwar. the designation
that goes with the throne OF Baroda. The
word means simply COW driver, but its
glory comes with it out Of the nists Of
antiquity when it was assumed by the best
Of the Mahrattas to show his prowess as a
reever of kline upon the border, a reputa-
ton that underlies the ancestral pride OF
many a Scots family Of a far Inter time.

all a new INSTITUTION. Inc olnCiai tTdue
record goes back to 1925, when we sold her
$50, 500 worth of goods and bought from
her s475 1896 worth. By 1900 these figures
had climbed to: exports, 81 SOC, 900, and
imports, IS, 900, 900. Five years later Q9o5)
they reached: exports. $2s ,5s4 ,o5e, and i'm
ports, SIS sic, 492. While our sales have
increased both in volume and in percentage
of her total purchases, it is not to our credit
that we have only a little more than 10 per
cent. Of Argentina's business. Our pur-
chases might be somewhat, though per-
haps not very greatly, increased. Ninety
FIVE per cent. of her exports are ~agricult-
ural and animal products, We nigh t
take a larger quantity of hides, skins, hair
and wool, but our supply OF cattle and
cereals comes from our own generous
acres. The greater part Of her exports
20 TO Europe, where they are needed. Her
sales to England and Europe are more than
ten times her sales to the United States,
and England, Germany, France and Bel
GUM make vigorous effort to pay their
bills in merchandise rather than In cash
directly or indirectly paid. Yet her pur-
chases consist mainly Of just the goods
which we might ~supply-iron and steel
products, agricultural implements, ma
chinery, leather and paper and manufact-
ures thereof.
Argentina has in operation more than
$4,000 miles OF railway, in which English
capital Ia largely interested. The system
is being extended every year, The gross
earnings last year were $40, 800 900 gold.
An official report states that for the last
two years not a single line has workedwt a
loss, The invested capital Is given as
s5ss ,597 ,s2s, and the interest earned on
capital SIS per cent, as compared with 5.i2
per cenM in 1904 and s.Al per cent. in 1900.

Mr.. Rockefeller Abroad.

After rigid economy for many
years. making his MONDAY lunch on
a glass of milk and piece OF pie,
Mr.. Rockefeller has at last saved
and have railroad constructed across
enough money to be able to take a
tri pto Europe.
His first idea when he took no
ton that he wanted to take look at
the old world was to fill up the ocean
so that he might go over in his prl-
vate car, but on thinking it over he
decided that such an undertaking
might annoy his old friend the ship
ping trust, SO he decided to go by
boat.
MIR. Rockefeller goes over as pri-
vate citizen, but the kings Of the old
world will find him very approachable
and they may call on him freely ii
they will first be willing to submit
to a search for subpoenas at the door
They will find him an interesting con-
versationalist, and ii they bring the
children. along he will probably be
pleased to take off his wig to amuse
them

When to Quit Advertising.

An English newspaper requested
number OF its largest advertisers to
give their opinions concerning the
best time to stop advertising, and the
following replies were received:
when the population ceases to
multiply, and the generations that
crowd on after you and never heard
OF you, stop coming on.
when you nave convinced every
body whose life will touch yours that
you have better goods and lower
prices than they can get anywhere
else.
when you stop making fortunes
right in your sight solely thru the di-
rect use OF this mighty agent.
when you forget the words Of the
-shrewdest and most successful men
concerning the main cause Of their
prosperity.
When younger and fresher houses
in your fine cease starting up and us
ing the newspapers in telling people
how much better they can do for them
than you can.
when you would rather have your
own way and fail. than to take advice
and win"

Jesse James.

The w. l. Swain Jesse James show
will appear here Thursday, August
20. This company offer grand nov
city OF entertainment, portraying wild
western historical life. While the
name is a daring one, it doesn't sig
nifty that the entertainment is all
shooting, nor is the pot founded up
on dime novel lines The acting is
somewhat sensational, the climaxes
are exhilerating, the scenes are west
ern, true to life, but the show as a
whole is entertaining, instructive and
strictly moral. The company carry
Indians, cowboys, Mexicans, coined
ians, actors and complete outfit of
scenery, costumes cowboy band, etc,
to produce the big spectacular west
ern entertainment.
The novelty of the snow offers an
entirely new amusement The COM
edy features are very strong as the
old negro servant of Jesse, Lige,
keeps the audience in convusion. The
press is speaking very highly OF this
show in the different cities where they
have appeared.

The Markets.
Stock Yards, Kansas City.

Stock Yards, Kansas City. Mo-,
Aug. I3-(Speciai.) This promises
to be another week of moderate cattle
receipts, supply 1900 head today,
same as on Monday last The run
last week was $4,000 head, de-
crease of more than 10000 head from
same week last yeaf. Pastures are in
fine condition generally all over the
west, and owners dislike TO market
stuff when it is doing so we'll Kan
sas and Missouri also marketed
good many steers in July that ordin-
arily would come about this time. and
another thing which is affecting quar-
antine receipts, is the excellent pros
poets for corn in Oklahoma and In
dian territories, causing owners to
hold some of their cattle for feeding

New Mexico and Panhandle stockers

No cattle direct from Colorado are
here today. but some wintered Colo
RADIOS, grazed in Kansas sold to feed
ers at $500 and $4I5 today. Late last
week shipment from Wolcott, Colo,
contained heifers al $3.4o, cows $3.I5.
and some light COWS at $26o but this
was not considered iul test OF the
market, as, finish was lacking Indi-
cations favor another week or two of
light receipts and strong markets. A
good many country buyers had to go
home empty handed last week, ac-
count of small supply of that class

sured will likely cause an extraordin-
ary demand for stockers and feeders

iiic sheep nsa advanced Is to
IS cents last week, On the small sup
ply Of 5000 head, but buyers de-
manded concessions today, and lambs
particularly sold 10 to IS cents lower,
run $500 head The market is likely
to rule uneven for awhile, as packers
claim their stuff is costing them too
much money, and will insist on lower
prices whenever there is heavy run.
Shippers should distribute their con-
signments, and try to avoid ccntcring
too many sheep at the northern mar
kets, while this point is lightly sup
piled. Arizona spring lambs sold at
$500 to $7.2o today, not extra quail
ity, Utah sheep and yearlings to kill
ers at $48s, New Mexico sheep $4.65.
Large orders for feeding stuff are
held here, around SAYS tor wethers,
5000 tor good lambs, and up to $525
for breeding ewes, but present volume
of receipts is altogether inadequate to
fill these orders.

The Piker.

a plkcI Is an Individual VINO
wants other people to pay his share
of all mutual expenses. There are
many OF these beings roaming about
the woods and taken as class do
considerable harm in a community
and always act as an impediment to
progress. Some pike on small
scale and some on large scale, de-
pending upon the caliber of the indi-
vidual, but they are all in the same
class. Sometimes we see an entire
community composed largely OF pix
ers. Here we always find dead"
town and one which has little or no
attraction for outsiders. Piking and
knocking are twin brothers begotten
of sore head and tight fist. Pix
ing, however, is not confined exclus-
lively to money matters. The profess
sional piker's motto is, DO nothing
to help anybody but yourself" and
this motto applies to all forms Of as
sistance and encouragement as well
as to affairs of the purse, says the
Olathe Criterion.
Pikers are of various and sundry
species and we see several different
varieties every day. The little piker
stands around saloon or cigar
store and drinks or smokes whenever
treat is offered but never thinks Of
buying anything himself. The big
.iker makes fortune in a town and
then refuses to do anything in return
to assist the town. Numerous exam
Piles of piking may be seen at ball
game where the ground is not en-
closed and the promoters must de-
pend on collection to pay the neces-
sary expenses. Frequently the men
who yelled loudest to have the game
/. asEsnGed who are the most enthus-
isstic roofefs ana who -tzik Inos
about the virtues of the home team,
will make a sneak into the crowd in
order to evade the man who is pass
ing the hat. Some of these pikers
will ride to town in bus and try to
sneak out Of paying FIVE cent fare.
When movement for the public ben
eft is started it is easy to spot the
pikers. Some will refuse outright to
give assistance while others will ar
que that the project is not worth
while, but all belong to the same ge-
nus.
Nobody likes a piker, not even
those of his own species. Everyone
knows that he is not of a desirable
class of citizens The fewer of this
class community contains the great
er is its progress. There is just one
moral to this story Don't be eternal
ly growing because you are occasion
ally asked to assist some public cause
Shoulder your share Of the burden
and bear it srnilingly like man
Somebody must do things. Do your
part. Don't be piker.
