DENVER MARKETS

Denver Union Stock Yards An
markets were lower last week as a re-
suit OF the liberal supplies and as
prices here at the beginning of the
week were too high, compared to those
East, this market followed the lead
set at other points. On Monday there
was very little stun in the yards and
prices were higher, but Tuesday re-
cefpts were liberal and the result was
sharp drop on cows. Steers held nm
pretty well until late in the week. but
prices are about a quarter lower. in
sympathy with Eastern declines. Fair
grass steers from the Rifle district
sold at $4.50Q4.65, but there was
nothing choice offered. Cow stuff is
4OQ50c lower than a week ago and
dull at the decline. Grass cows sold
on Monday at $4.12R, but later in the
week 1t took good ones to land above
$3.50 and bulk of the fair to good kill
ers sold from this down to $2.75. Bulls

dollar per hundredweight lower. be.
cause OF liberal supplies and the fact
that prices were higher here than at
any other market. Best veals are now
selling around $525. Feeder and stock
er demand was good and dealers had
liberal orders for good steers they
were unable to fill, as receipts were
very light Prices, however, are weak
to quarter lower, because of lower
markets East. Just fair Western grass
steers sold at $4.00@4.20, with medium
kinds around s3.25@340. All Eastern
markets are 25@40c lower than a week
ago.
Hog receipts were about $500 head
last week. Demand was fair, but not
urgent, as receipts of late have been
heavy. Bulk of hogs are now selling
at S5.SO@5.9O, with tops around Sc.
Sheep receipts were light, but the
demand was also limited here last
week. Prices are weak, owing to low
er markets at the river though there
is no material change in prices from
week ago.

The Sexes In America.

America is the field In which will
be harmoniously adjusted the differ
ences of das Ewig- Weibliche and the
eternal domineering male. Woman
is not inferior to man but different
from him, as Stendhal would say.
Nevertheless, the two sexes are slow
ly approaching. declares James
Huneker. in Everybody's Magazine.
The man OF to-day is more fem
inine than his predecessors; that
is. he is more gentle, civilized:
while the woman, casting away old
fashioned incrusting prejudlces, is
more masculine. 1. e., she is not only
more athletic in her tastes than her
grandmother-she is mentally broader
and firmer in her judgments. (Some
day she will be so far evolved" that
she will be charitable to her own
sex). The franker association of the
sexes has proved tonic to the woman
refining to the man. These are school
boy truisms, but they will always
stand quotation.

And Now the Preacher Smokes.

East Northfield, Mass.-By ENDORSING
smoking and theaters, DR.. ]. C. Morgan
of Londen, shocked the conference of
Christian Workers here, and has pre-
cipitated determination by other min
listers to lead "walkout" whenever
the London pastor is again scheduled
to speak.
DR.. Morgan created a decided sensa-
tion when he intimated that it was
perfectly allowable for one to smoke or
go to the theater, provided they be-
lieved God had told them that it was
right, when they asked Him.
On all OF the circulars issued by the
Workers, smoking has been prohibited.
Following the announcement of DR..
Morgan's theory several OF the minis.
ters present signified their intention OF
bolting should he again speak.

NO END NEAR, SAY STRIKERS.

Chicago.-Important developments
In the strike of commercial telegra-
pliers are looked for soon by both dis
putants.

Its force and that the turning point has
been reached. the telegraph companies
look for stampede of the strikers to

Cheered by the reports they have re-

the strikers, on the other hand, are
prepared to prosecute the strike more
vigorously than ever.
According to advices received at
cities affected upton headquarters the
messenger boys and check clerks in
New York are scheduled to go out.
Three hundred operators employed
by the American Telephone & Tele-
graph Company throughout the South
west may be called out unless ten
per cent. increase in wages is granted.

the entire matter has been settled by
officials in New York.
He declared he understood the set

entire country, as well as in the Chi.
cago office.
Another report is the contemplated
plan of the strike leader to call out the
cable operators, which would isolate
America from the rest of the world
but 1t is admitted that this coup is not
likely to materialize.
The strike leaders themselves doubt
their ability to tie up the cable service

Bit of Advice to Women.

Don't pick out a man for a husband
simply because you love him. The
most important thing is whether he
loves you. A woman who loves her
husband better than he does her Is a
doormat on which he treads. If he
loves her better than she does him.
he looks up TO her as a goddess and
spends his life trying to win her
favor.
A too adoring wife bores man
with her affection, but no woman ever
had enough love given her to satisfy
her, and the more affection the man
lavishes upon her the stronger the
claim he establishes. After marriage
a thousand things draw woman's
heart 10 her husband; a THOUSAND
things estrange him from her.-Wo.
