BANK FOR sPINsTERs.
Bostonians Plan to Make Single Wo-

Bostonians Plan to Make Single Wo-
men Independent.
A movement has been started in Bos-
ton by Mrs. Glendower Evans, a w
known clubwoman, to establish p
sion bank for spinsters. which, she
lieves, will do away with mercen
marriages., penniless spinsters. wo
about husbands and jokes about
maids. She has already presented
plan to the members of the Massac
sets insurance commission and has
terested many clubwomen in her :
ect. Her first problem was to de
mine the age of the spinster, and at
careful deliberation she decided tt
it begins at forty years. Before th..
age, she says. woman has good
chances of matrimony. A depositor
however. may open an account with
the insurance bank as early in life as
she pleases. and if she marries before
she Is forty she receives goodly sum
to start housekeeping with. If she re.
mains unmarried she retains her bank
account and ut the age of fifty begins
to receive a regular annuity. II q
woman decides to marry after reach
ing the age of forty she gets her money
back on demand.
The plan is so unusual that Mrs
Evans expects to encounter difficulty
she thinks. and some opposition in
making women understand that the
plan is to their advantage. But she
has philanthropic band of Boston
women back of her who are ready and
willing to explain the spinster insur
ance principle to spinsters.
The insurance commission declares
that it is the most unusual banking
proposition ever advanced in Americs
and that the women interested are Ell
argetic enough to make it conform t.
the Massachusetts insurance laws.

Shipping and Butcher Grades Sell 5
Cents Hishe-Boar Market Wiped
Out by Condemnation of This Class
by nspectors-sheep Slow, Lambs
Weak.

Chicago, Sept. 2-The cattle mar
ket was active on the start. and quo
tations were steady on all grades and
classes but they were largely NOM
inal. as not enough had been done the
first hour to establish an accurate
level of prices. 1t took buyers some
time to make up their minds just what
they would do. On the late market the
great bulk of native and western stuff
was slowly disposed of without diff
Guilty at generally steady values.
Yearings of prime grade We're ex-
ceptionally scarce. and another new
top was put on the market yesterday,
one load of prime Shorthorn and An
gus yearlings selling at sS05, highest
on the open market since July, last
year, when fancy heavy steers sold up
TO 1925.
Receipts were at first estimated at
$4,000, but later many traders thought
arrivals would total close to 1900. For
the three days this week supply stands
at 44,4oo, against 1892 week ago
and 60,019 year ago. There has been
included this week a total of 1900
western rangers, against 10000 last
week and 1850 year ago. At six
markets total cattle receipts today
were 1920, against 51.700 year ago
while in the first three days this week
combined marketings at these points
total $4,000. against $4,000 a week
ago and l1l,O0O a year ago.
Hogs.
The halfweek supply is a little
lighter than last week here. and at all
western markets, while shipping de-
mand has broadened. Shippers are
taking about twice as many hogs as a
year ago. August receipts at Chicago
are 71.460 less than last year, while
shippers have bought more.
Hogs.
Demand was active on better sorts.
The market for shipping and butcher
grades was strong 10 cents higher
the former grade reaching the 1925
mark. Packers bought only such hogs
as they had absolute need of. Com
mission men have warned country
buyers to avoid buying boars. Recent
ly large percentage of boars have
Ebeen condemned by government in
spectors. Buyers now demand that
owners sell subject to government in
spection, making the sale entirely at
the risk of the seller. This naturally
wipes out the boar market.
Sheep.
| Market was slow and unchanged for
sheep and weak for lambs. Excessive
receipts was the main factor, big kill
ers were bidding 1905 cents lower for
lambs than values at the high time

COMPACT OF THE wRIeHTs.
AeropIanists Won't Risk Both Lives at

AeFoPIanISIS WON'T hiSk 6oen Iivo6 at
Same Time by Flying Together.
The Wright brothers, the famous
aeroplanists, never make fight to-
gether and never will. according to a
compact they have made. says Wash
ington dispatch. Thus If one should
be killed there still remains the other
to carry on the work.
The question came up the other day
as to who should accompany either Of
them In the Fort Myer flights. for I'M
der their contract the aeroplane must
carry two persons before IT will be ac-
cepted. When asked why he would
not take his brother Orville Wright
said: eve will never fly together. 1t
would not be wise for the both Of rs
to sail in the same machine"
The death of Lieutenant Selfridge is
said to have caused the compact.
