Farmers southwest of Jasper are al
ready organizing for the hunting season
to prevent indiscriminate hunting and
fishing on their land. They are especi'
ally bitter on the latter subject since
the discovery, under the Base Line
bridge, of ten sticks of dynamite, which
had evidently been stored there for use
in dyuamiting fish in the river. Con-
sidering the severe penalties provided
for this particular form of law-infripge.
ment it is rather surprising that any
one would take such risk.

TWO FROM PROSPERITY.
Saturdays Ball Game Farce, but
Sundays Game Was Close.

Tho Prosperity interstate league base
ball team has come and gone and an
other scalp bangles at tho belt Of the
belt of the Jasper Redsox. Forsooth,
We might say two scalps, for despairipg
OF winning with the bunch that played
Saturday, Prosperity imported four new
men for Sundays game, which would
seem to make another scalp altogether,
or at least half a scalp. Anyhow, Jas
per won both games, tho first by the
unmentionable score Of IT to 8, the sec.
ond, much better game, by the more
easily digestble count OF to 3.
The Prosperity boys brought along
one Mr.. Sisney, an interstate star with
several one. hit and few no hit games
to his credit, to stop the Sox Saturday.
He stopped them all right, but not soon
enough. In fact the only way he suc-
ceeded in stopping them at all was by
resigning his job 10 the sixth inning
after the Sox had pummeled his offer.
ings to the distant potato patches for
] twelve runs He was relieved by
Wilson, who also was bombarded
with frequency and persistency until
the close Of the proceedings. Every
man on the Jasper team got at least one
hit, everybody but Wolf and Moon got
two and McComb accumulated three.
Mitchell pitched fine game for JAS
per until errors by the patchedup team
behind him spoiled the shut-out, and
then with the game clnohed he let
down little. Prosperity found him
for six hits, which resulted 10 six runs.
They were never dangerous, however,
or "Mitch" would have frightened up
easy enough.
SECOND GAME.
Ross Dodd and his sore arm formed
good enough combination to win Sun
days game against the interstate boys
with young Mr.. Spell, OF Alba, in the
box. The score was to 3, but the Sox
lost at least half a dozen runs through
bad base running. For example in the
9Th inning five Sox reached 1st base
safely, but no runs resulted. Every
runner who got on seemed to think it
sacred duty to take a nap on the way
round, and result he didn't progress
far. However, four Of them made the
round trip, which was enough to win.
Prosperity hit Dodd hard 10 the open
ing innings, but he sewed them up in
one.two.three order during the last part
Of the game.
Il 1t is probable that no more games
will be played this year, as the Prosper
ity games were failure financially,
and the team has an empty treasury
with which to meet about S75 worth of
debts. A few benefit games will be
|. played however.
The Sox have brilliant season in
every respect except financially. OF
twenty-five games played they won
nineteen, and they have played nearly
every team in the southwest that show
ed any class. They are without doubt
the champion amateur team OF south
] west Missouri, as Sarcoxie, the only
} team that has shown equal form with
them, is composed entirely OF salaried
players, not one OF whom lives at Sar-
coke.

THE KANSAS CITY MARKET
Reported for the News by Special
Correspondent.

Kansas City Stock Yards, Oct. 5
1908. Cattle receipts we're moderate
here last week, 77,000 head, including
5000 calves, and the market was more
satisfactory on all class es than 10 the
previons week, prices little higher,
and activity the prevailing feature.
The run today is 10000 head, almost a
record breaker for this market, market
slow, and about 10 lower. The slow.
ness today is more because Of buyers
waiting for arrivals to be yarded than
account OF lack of demand. Killers
have made a remarkable record here
this fall, slaughter of cattle for Septem'
Der greatest or record for that month,
and 26 per cent greater than same
month last year. In August this year
they killed 10 per cent more than in
August last year. Shipments of stock
and feeding cattle to the country from
here since July lst are third short of
same months last year, aud a greater
percentage this year have been stock
steers Finished steers are extremely
scarce, market not fully tested for two
weeks, top last week 81 90, fair to good
fed steers 1915 to sc rs, grass steers
S3.75 to $500. COWS 80. rs to 1896, bulls
S2.40 to $3.50, calves S400 to 100.
Stocker and feeder market is lower to.
day. and there will be large numbers of
stock and feeding cattle available this
week because of the heavy total run of
cattle, and next week when the Ameri.
can Royal 1.-Two Stock Show will be
held here, an event that always draws
in heavy supply of stock and feeding
cattle. Stockers sell at $500 to 1925,
feeders $3.50 to 81 sc.
Hog receipts last week were 10000
head. as compared with 4 900 same
week last year. The market lost 32
cents per c~t. during the week, only
natural in view OF the big run. Supply
today is $4,000 head, market 10 to Is
lower, top Sc. 10. bulk sc. 20 to So CO.. 1t
is more difficult each year to figure
ahead on the volume of thu hog crop,
account of the rapid development Of
the Western country, and the run Of
hogs this fall is surprise to. everyone
in the trade. Quality continues much
mixed, with some slight improvement
above few weeks ago.
Sheep and lambs are coming freely,
September receipts largest on record for
this market for any month previously,
and II per cent more than same month
last year. Country buyers took out a
normal number. the surplus going to
the packers. The market took sem
sational upturn last week especially on
lambs, which advanced 80 cents to 81. 10
per cwt. Sheep gained Is to 25 cents,
but ccu ntry kinds remained steady.
Run is $1,000 today, market ten higher.
