a Superb Animal.

During a fierce charge Of Confedcr
ate cavalry at Murfrccsboro an ohicer
was killed and the cavalry driven
back. The horse the officer had ridden
was Il magnificent animal. II he had
not been taught to retreat. Riderless
he kept on his way. and ns he dashed
through the Federal battery the sight
of him was indescribabiy grand. Ills
nostrils were extended wide. his eyes
fairly blazed. and he clutched the bit
leterminedly with his teeth as he
came on like the wind. with his sad
die laps flying until he looked as If he
we're himself flying instead Of wildly
running. Every one gave him room as
he dashed onward. An officer shoutcd
that he would give 500 to any II
who would capture that superb AMI
NAL. but all seemed too much bound
IN in admiration of the noble beast 10
make the effort, and he sped on II
disappeared In the blue distance.

India Is not the only country where

STORK'S VISITS TO NEW
YORK GROW FREQUENT

The birth rate in Manhattan is now
greater than in any of the boroughs
of Greater New York, according to
the latest figures of the health de-
partment. 1t amounts to more than
so per 1000 of the population a year
which. based on the number Of fami-
lies for each 100 population here,
would mean that a baby is born once
a year in every other family in the
borough. There were 2l50 births last
week-one every five minutes
The death rate in Brooklyn is now
slightly lower than in Manhattan, 16
out of each 1000 of population.
The financial panic has left a grim
train Of telltale deaths from heart
disease in its wake, the increase be-
ing over 10 per cent. There has also
been an increase Of l3 per cent in
cancer.
The panic. in combination with
the license law. has caused a decrease
OF about one-third in the number of
marriages in Greater New York. Sui
cides. on the contrary. have greatly
increased.

WHITMORE AGAIN TO BE
TRIED FOR WIFE MURDER

Jersey, ~ j., Oct. 2G.-In the Hud-
son county court next week Theodore
Whitmore will be tried for the sec
ond time on a charge of having muir
dered his wife in the Black Swamp,
Harrison, n. j., which was a mystery
for more than a week during Decem-
ber of last year. The first trial re-
suited in a disagreement, but it is be-
lieved that the recent arrest of Lot
tie Carroll, an important witness, will
lessen his chance of successful de-
fense this time.
Mrs. Carroll who is 10 years old,
lived in the house in Brooklyn with
the Whitmores when Mrs. Whitmore
disappeared. After Mrs. Whitmore's
husband had been arrested, the police
sought Mrs. Carroll for weeks to have
her tell what she knew about the
movements of Whitmore on Christ
mas Eve when the murder is suppos-
ed to have been committed. The Car
roll woman was finally located week
or two ago through the efforts Of an
amateur woman detective and is now
being held to testify at the trial of
Whitmore.

General w. L. FINER of the Ore

ed in Marshfield last night to make
preliminary Investigations to ascertain
whether 1t is advisable to establish
one of the three United States artil-

partment has ordered for Oregon on
Coos bay, says the Times.
Today General Finer and Lieuten-
ant White are making a tour of the

Head, securing data on the need and
possibilities of fortifying the harbor.
They will probably spend two or three
days in making the investigation
1t is not likely that General FINER
win Immediately arrange for the or
ganization Of the artillery company
here although il he decides TO have
one of the companies located on Coos
Bay he will probably submit his re-
port on the conditions to the United
states war department before acting
The minimum number required for
an artillery company is 5S. AS there
are a number on Coos Bay who have
seen service and would be glad to join
the new company, it is not believed
that any difficulty would be encoun-
tered in securing sufficient men. Each
year the company would be required
to go to Fort stevens or some other
fort in this section for the annual drill
probably be required to participate in
other similar events.

RAY OF HOPE FINALLY
APPEARS ON HORIZON
Undesirable Quality Of Beef Cattle
Forced Upon the Market Caused
Decided WealIening-Blg Run Of
Poor Cattle Now Thought TO BE
Over Improved Tone In sheep
Market Also Expected.
(By Hyman II. Cohen.)

Portland Union Stockyards. oct "a
The past week will very likely pass
into livestock history as one Of the
most pricedestructive periods for this
time Of the year in the history of the
industry.
With the closing Of the week-six
days of disaster to values-a ray OF
hope appears on the horizon and pros
poets bid fair to be brighter than be-
fore the clouds sunk so low.
With the decline of best hogs to
Sc the market received a very serious
blow the past week but the forcing OF
| best steers down TO $375 was, If any
thing, more Of a bitter pill for the
livestock raisers to swallow.
1t was the cattle market that sur
prised the trade when 1t showed
such a weak front. Little wonder
however, for this display of weakness
when the cause Is known. While the
arrivals of cattle in the yards the
past week were somewhat less than
the previous six days, the total arriv-
ais ItiNhflo DulNllao'o at IllA'l lpi
points included-were considerably
greater than during any recent week.
The big run Of poor cattle lis about
over for the season. The market was
simply loaded with undesirable quail
ity for weeks at a time. This class
Of stock was forced upon the mar
ket because of the high price of hay
an feed and the very scant range
due to the excessive dry spell. With
hay values entirely out Of line with
livestock values, feeders did not care
to carry over any more stock through
the winter than compelled to. 1t was
the getting rid of this surplus supply
for which feeders had no feed, that
caused the blocked condition of the
market for several weeks past and fl
nally forced cattle values far below
what the trade believed they would
reach.
Hogs to Follow the East
In the serious decline which con-
tinued through this week and started
during the previous week the local
hog market is simply following the
sharp declines that took place in east
ern values a short time ago. While
the hog market was not firm after il
dropped to Sc during the latter part
OF the week, values were somewhat
more steady than formerly and with
slowing up in the arrivals, a better
ment in the tone will probably oc-
cur In the east values show an in
clnation to steady somewhat and II
the improvement here remains for
any great length of time its influ-
ence will be for the good of Pacific
coast prices.
As i'm the cattle market there
should be an improved tone in the
sheep market locally in the near fu-
ture. While the arrivals in the local.
yards were smaller than last week.
packers brought in considerable
number from the range on their own
hook. Sheepmen were forced to sell
for the same reason as did the cattle
men-the short range and the very
high price Of feed. During the past
week there was no change in sheep
values
