FORTY MILLIONS A YEAR.
This Enormous Sum Represents the
Poultry Sales Of Missouri.

The farmers wives and daughters
of Missouri marketed 1O7 1885 doz-
ems Of eggs last year for which they
received more than si6.OOO.OO0. d
ded to this are the items Of live and
dressed poultry and feathers, making
the comfortable sum OF nearly S4O.-
100000 for poultry products for the
last year.
These items foot up much more
than the surplus wheat crop Of that

live stock constitute the greatest

THE BOARD OF TRADE
WAS BUSY LAST NIGHT

The executive committee of the
Board Of Trade was in session last
night and a good attendance was
present. The meeting was more in

wise, and many matters were discuss.
ed. One of the most important mat.
tiers talked about was a new process
of making good streets and roads. AT
least the process is new to this sec.
ton of the country, but has been used
with great success in California and
other Western states President
Hearne of the Board has been read
ing up on it, and was positive it was
the thing we have been looking for.
Mr.. Hearne described the process. 1t
consists in blowing a road or street
to the depth of six inches, and then
saturating the plowed earth with
crude oil. Following this a roller,
made especially for the work, is sent
over the surface until it is packed per-
fectly hard. 1t is then plowed again
to the depth of four inches, saturated
again with oil, and rolled. Then the
ploy is sent down two inches, and
more oil applied, and rolled again, and
you have a perfect road that will
stand any kind of traffic, and is good
for years. The cost is also in it's
favor, being about one-fifth of macad-
EN-. II the process is what is claim
ed for it, and it has been thoroughly
tested in the West, then it is decid
eddy the road making plan that should
be adopted Mr.. Hearne did not say
so last night, but the Herald would
not be surprised if the city made
some experiments along this line at
an early date. If the roads can be
built as good and as cheaply as it is
believed they can, the streets through
out the city can be paved almost or
quite as cheaply as they are kept up
at the present time. 1t is a great
thing if it works out

Topeka, Kan.-With his anvil for

room, Frank Jacques, justice of the
peace at Elmont, a village seven
miles north of Topeka, pTesides over
what is perhaps the most unique

is a commanding figure, and when his

Donovan had a shade the better of

His second base on balls was costly
but with good support he would have
won his game. The game was evenly

with two hits in the eighth when De-
trolt scored all three OF it's runs while
the visitors returned the compliment

error came in this round and was
costly. With runners on first and sec

bases. After that two runs came

An Tbsen Evening.

The world is coming to a clearer
understanding of the great Norwe
CLAN, Hendrix Ibsen, who wrote "a
Dolls House, In which Miss Jane
Corcoran. under the direction of Ar
thur c. Aston will appear at The
kentucky on Thursday, October 10.
"a Dolls House" is the story of
woman who though ready to sacrifice
all for the man she loves, gets moth
ing from him but sweet words ana
the pettings of a child. The woman
wants understanding, sympathy. a
wifely interest in her husbands af-
fairs, but this the man cannot give.
Though she stands ready to acknowl-
edge a crime, committed in Loves
name, the man can see only the hid
eousness of exposure, his shallow self
ish nature causing him to shrink from
the publicity expected. When her
miracle does not take place, Nora
finds herself and her true relation to
the man she called husband for eight
years and for whom she bore three
children. When she learn her true
position, that of a doll instead of a
wife, she resolves to become free and
a woman. In this scene, a stormy one.
Miss Corcoran reaches her greatest
triumph. TIE doll-like nature leaves
her. she stands forth bold, defiant,
unconventional, ready to face the
world and the consequences of her
act. To her husbands remonstrances
she turns a deaf ear, even TO his
pleadings for the sake Of her children
she answers that she is a woman
first, a mother and wife afterward.

Chicago, Oct. . Detroit and Chi

~ strenuous innings to a tie here
yesterday in the first game of the
series for the baseball championship
of the world. The contest was re-

home well satisfied with the outcome.
Overall and Donovan were the oppos-

ken out when Chicago had tied the
score in the ninth and had men on
bases waiting TO score the winning
runs. Moran was sent in to bat for
him but before the latter had time
to deliver the needed hit, Evers tried

iect. and Mr.. Hanford's presentation
this year will be more spectacular
than ever before. A scenic revival Of
Antony and Cleopatra" has been in
his mind for number of seasons past
and last years production Of Julius
Caesar" formed a splendid preface
for this years representation OF An
tony no longer a triumphant states
man but the Inflated lover.
Saturday, October 70. is Mr. Han
ford's date at the Kentucky. At the
matinee he will play the Merchant
of Venice" The production OF "The
Merchant OF Venice" which Mr.
Charles b. Hanford will offer this
season is distinguished by a brill
liancy of cast and a wealth Of scenery
calculated to Guido all the splendid
productions Of the play that he has
previously made. Mr. HanfOrd has
made a sincere study Of the character
OF Shylock; one which takes into &C
count not only the relentless venge-
fullness of the role, but the dignity
and sentiment which must attach to a
man so impassioned in his devotion
to race and home. Mr.. Hanford's
shylock is one Of the creations of the
American drama which stand forth
like beacon lights to mark the arts
tic progress of a nation It is a per-
Torrance worthy Of study by the
Younger generation of players who
aspire TO interpret Shakespeare. Miss
Wilson stir appears as Mr.. Han
lords leading lady and in the char
actor OF Portia has opportunities
which will meet with the hearty ap-
proval of her many admirers. This is
one of the plays in which Shakes
peare presents a sprightly and ap-
proving study of feminine characters.
Miss Wilson has given 1t an interpre-
tation which ranks among the stand
ard portrayals of the modern stage.

great playbill of the Vendetta, dra-
matized from Marie Corelli's famous
novel of the same. No work Of fiction
has ever found such prominent
place in the literary world as has this
work from the pen of the peer OF
writers along this line. The dramati-

stage today one of the grandest Of
productions, it having the qualifica-

In the strongest manner to all classes

interest, telling a story embracing
love, devotion, trust, fidelity, decep-
ton, faithlessness and broken trust.
