stockers and Feeders.

A very slim volume of business has
been transacted all this week, the feed
er trading being lightest of any week
this season. Country owners did not
ship many, evidently believing they
had something better worth the money
at home than at market, while on the
other hand many of the prospective
buyers. realizing that feeder market
ings are very small. stayed away. High
prices We're another bar TO active de-
mand. but in event that there was
much of country call the orders
could not have been filed. Killers COM
peted for everything which had any
kill TO it and paid better prices than
the feeder buyers could afford Where
country buyers found anything strictly
good in the feeder line these were
priced at s550M575 and cattle which
could be had at s5.oo@5.25 did not
have much quality to recommend
them. A few lots We're taken at s.. 40
@565 but there were not many buyers
willing to pay above $3.50.
The country generally views feeding
cattle prices as TOO high and Until this
sentiment is changed there isn't likely
to be much of demand. but on the
other hand. where are there going to
be any liberal supplies with which to
effect a price break? OF late bulk of
the feeders have sold at s5.00@Nc5 and
stockers mostly at s4.35G4.75, with a
selected kind up to $500 and higher.
Common light stockers in odd lots
ranged down from $500 and some poor
little knot heads" sold around $3.50.

IOWA IN LITTLE DANGER.
Geology Expert Says Quakes Not Like
ly to Seriously Affect State.

Special to Times-Republican.
Iowa City, May 27.-'Iowa is not
likely to be seriously affected by
earthquakes" said Prof. Samuel CAL
vim, the university geology expert, af-
ter the seismic shock experienced here
yesterday morning at $3.50 o'clock.
iowa is in a region comparatively sta
able, and one that has been so for geo.
logic ages.
The nearest center of seismic dis
turbance is in the region of New Mad
rid, Mo-, where earthquake shocks
shook that region violently in 1S11-12.
believe today's shocks had their ORR
gin somewhere in that vicinity.
s'Tne earthquakes that affect our
state, like today's, are the tectonic
| type, not the volcanic. These are the
results of strains due to adjustment
| of the earth's crust shifting, sliding,
ETC., and may be very mild or terribly
disastrous"
| The shocks were plainly felt in this
city. Many citizens in all parts Of the
city reported that the disturbance was
marked.

FLORIDA GIRL A GOOD SHOT.

Miss Alice Curry, 16-year-old
maiden living at Labelle, proved her
self the other day to be a huntress
with enviable nerve and an eye like
an eagle. She was out in the Big
Cypress when she noticed the dogs
along with her start off after some
thing. She followed them and soon
had big tiger at bay.
The young lady shot the tiger,
which measured 1912 feet and will
weigh in the neighborhood of rs
pounds. The head of the tiger is
now in possession of George Light
sey and is certainly fierce looking
object.-Fort Myer Press.

SAYS EVE CONFERRED RIGHT

Senator Goldthwaite Of Massachu-
sets says that as the first family
could not have been formed without
the first woman, so, logically, the
political community that does not
recognize the woman as a factor equal
in influence to the man is not evenly
balanced and can not succeed as well
as it would otherwise. He says the
male has cracked the whip over the
female long enough, and now there
should be a change, which is to be
brought about by giving women the
right to vote.

JEWISH COLONY in TOLEDO
Are the Only Members of That Faitn
in Spain-Why They Were
Granted Exemption.

The only Jews in Spain are found
at Toledo, and they have descended
from colony which settled there at
the time of the dispersion of the
Baoylcnian captivity. When the or
der OF Ferdinand and Isabella was
issued in 1894 expelling unhellevers
from Spain the Jewish colony in To-
ledo was granted exemption by show
ing proof that their ancestors had
nothing to do with the crucltiXlon
and had not been in Palestine for
generations before the advent OF
Christ. A decree was issued permit
ting them to remain and reside IN a
certain quarter of the city of Toledo,
anC to pursue certain lines of busl-
ness, but they were not allowed to
travel or leave the place, and every
man, woman and child of Jewish
birth was taxed 30 pieces of silver
annually. In the archives OF the
Vatican to-day may be found the
documents relating to this remark
able incident.

UNEQUAL TO THE OCCASION
Prize Pupil "FeII Down" in Answer
and Great Was Teachers Dis
comfiture.

Charlie was a bright boy, with a
good memory. He was the prize pu-
pill in geography and physiology
and when the school had any visitors
the teacher liked to show him off.
One day a member of the school
committee happened in as the class
was reciting geography and asked a
few questions and received fairly ac-
curate answers. When he expressed
a desire to switch off to physiology
however, the teacher thought it was
about time to show him something
particularly precocious.
SO when he asked "Where is the
stomach located % she called or
Charlie to answer. He did so witt
ready assurance:
'EThe stomach" he said, ''is sit.
uated just south of the lungs in

NORMAL GIRLS VICTORIOUS
Defeated ST. Mary's Academy
by the Score of 20 to II.
Team is Royalty Entertained by Faculty
and Students of Academy Trolley Ride
a Special Feature.

With the defeat of last Saturday
still ringing in their ears the girls
basketball team of the Arkansas
State Normal School went into the
game with st. Mary's Academy at
Little Rock Saturday with the de-
termination to win or die, and
came out victorious in what is re-
ported to be the fastest game OF
basketball ever played IN that city.
The score was 20 to IL. Every
member of the Normal team played
as if their life depended on the
game.
The team was met at the depot
in Little Rock by special street
car and were given a delightful
ride through the business portion
of the city, after which they were
escorted to the Academy, where an
elaborate dinner had been prepared
for them. In the afternoon an
other trolley ride was taken over
the greater part of the city, return
ing to the Academy at 3 O'Clock
to make preparations for the game.
The game was called at $50 p.
m. and was fast and furious from
the start to the finish. The first
half ended by the score of IS to 9
in favor OF the Normal. The
Academy girls made a strong eff
fort to stop the scoring OF the
Normal in the second half, but
were unable to do so, the final
score being 20 to II.
The team also had supper at the
Academy, leaving there at us, Sc
that the girls might have the opor-
tunity of spending an hour down
town, but on account of wreck on
the car line, they barely reached
the station in time to catch the 6
D. m. train for home. They were
met on their return to this city by
a large delegation from the Normal
and were given rousing reception.
The following young ladies
played in the game: Forwards,
McAnaly and Owen; center, Miss
Jenkins; guards, Misses Harrod
and Mckinney. Mr.. Stevens O.
the Little Rock Y. M. c. A. ref
creed the game and Fathers
Rourke and Longstreth were

bered.

MRS. GLOVER IS AT V|LONIA
One Wife of Man Accused of
Bigamy in This County.

Mrs. Emma Glover, who is stay
ing at Ballard Schoolhouse, near
this place, has just received a tele-
gram informing her of the arrest of
her husband, H. H. Glover, at

which she says is his real name,
and part of the time with a wife in

letter addressed his wife here and
found by his Mississippi wife is
said to have led to the discovery Of
his deception.
Mrs. Glover states that Glover
deserted her here two years ago
coming back last December and
taking here and their children tc
Conway, where he was engaged IL
the hat renovating business. He
again deserted her after about q
month, she says, and the first news
she has had from him was the tele,
gram from Columbus.
His wife says that Glover is a
brother of Representative d. d.
Glover of Malvern and Senator r
w. Glover of Prattstille, both
members of the present general
assembly.
