OBITUARY.


Mrs. Sarah E. Staples, highly respected
citizen, died at her home at midnight
Friday, at the age of seventy-six years.
Mrs. Staples had been in failing health for
some time, and the past six months had
suffered great deal, but with that bright
cheerfulness and christian hopefulness
and resignation that ever characterized
her life, she bore them all bravely until
the last.
1t can be truly said of her that good
woman is gone, for her daily life spoke
louder than words of true merit and a
consistent christian life. Early in life she
became a christian, and united with the
Methodist church, and ever remained true
to her church.
She had one adopted daughter, Mrs.
Augusta Graves, who has ever received
from her mothers care and love. She
also leaves two sisters Mrs. Susan Thomp-
son, of Portland, and Mrs. Helen Tabbutt,
who has lived with her for several years
and who has cared for her in her last ILL
ness; also one brother, Fred Bridges, Of
Massachusetts,. Funeral services were
held Saturday afternoon at her late
residence, Rev. w. F. Emery, of Ellis
worth, officiating. The remains were
taken to Castine, her native town, for in
torment in the family lot.

All the i'll feeling that has come up
between the crews of the foreign cars
and the Americans was buried after the
meeting at he automobile club. NJ. h..
Hatch of the Thomas company was
one of the first TO greet the foreigners.
He led in the cheering in front of the
club. Montague Roberts. driver of the
American car, shook hands with ALI
the crews in the clubhouse and sat
down to dinner next to Captain Han
sen Of the De Dion later. A. Rutland.
agent of the Iust car, was angry at the
refusal of the officers of the Northern
Indiana railway company to let the
foreign cars run over the tracks as
the Thomas had done, but he did not
blame the Thomas people for it.
All the cars will remain in Chicago

be ready to start today, but Roberts
probably will wait to start with the

others. A big banquet will be given Tor
the racers tonight at the automobile
club. The German car, the Protos, and
the second French car. the Motto Bloc
are expected in Chicago tomorrow or
Saturday. The Protos left Elkhart,
Ind, at midnight last night and the
Motto Bloc remained in WauWaka over
night.
At the dinner given to all the crews
of the racing cars at the automobile
club in the evening the horse power
resorted to in the trip thru Indiana was
the subject of many jokes. The snow
was referred to feelingly by all the
drivers Each one of the speakers
said that in all the twenty-five clubs
where they have been entertained
from New York they never have met
with such a warm welcome as they
found in Chicago.
The French and Italian cars were ac-
conlpanied from Rochester to Goshen,
Ind, by the Nora, the worlds record
sealed bonnet car. which sent along
crew of mechanics to help any car that
got into trouble. The mechanics spent
most of their time shoveling snow.

Representative Cattle Sales.
Below are given few Of the repre-
sentative cattle sales:
Suckers and Feeders.

Local traders have been very much
disappointed with the country demand
this week. The recent bad storm in
nearby territory and the high water in
the east are given as reasons for the
country indifference. Many letters
have been received inquring about the
condition of the market, which shows
that the cattle are wanted, and so trad
ers look for an expansion of business
little later on. Yard dealers are con-
servative, and are trying to hold their
accommodations down, but they are not
finding the outlet they expected to,
and today the supply of common and
medium stockers was quite heavy.
Good feeders were scarce and there are
standing orders for about all of them
that can be obtained. Not many have
been sold thus far this week, because
killers are taking all they can find at
higher rates than the spectators want
to pay.

Animals Of Quality Arriv-

Support to the Market Today =
Sheep Strong, Lambs Weak.

Chicago. Feb 2T-Cattle were slow,
but steady There were but few am
mails Of quality arriving, and this, to-
gether with the apathy displayed by
all classes of buyers, resulted III
dull and listless market.
BUYERS are using the Lent argument
to induce sellers to let go at cheaper
rates. They claim that the demand for
beef next week will be some lighter.
and are commencing their retrench-
ment process now. Most of the handy
light weight steers sold steady today,
but all of the heavy steers were loc
lower. and some were quoted as much
as l5c below last Monday Quality
was, il anything. better than usual for
Wednesday. and buyers said there
were more good steers offered than on
Monday. This was unfortunate, for
the good ones were the hardest to sell
and looked low. compared with some
that were short fed The top end OF
the market is gradually working down,
but there has been no change IN the
low end o., the market lately.
Hogs.
Hogs were steady at the close, tho
prices opened weak to &c lower. Of
lcrings appeared to be in excess OF the
needs Of trade. and about the best sup
porters of the market We're Scalpers.
Liberal mid-week receipts, some
contraction OF shipping demand, and
expectation that the advance OF Mon
day and Tuesday would fetch in lot
OF hogs the rest of the week, made a
combination of depressing influences.
With $4,000 fresh receipts, over 10000
were on sale, and the decline after the
sharp gain Of the past two days looked
logical Three-day receipts are about
$4,000 in excess of last week. while
shipping demand has not been equal
to the task of absorbing the added
jag.
Sheep were active and strong;
lambs were slow and weak.
