SPECIAL BOSTON MARKET
LETTER.

(The following market report is fur
nished the Monitor every Tuesday
night bysspecial arrangement with E.
E.[Wilson Co., Blackstone ST.. Bos-
ton, commission merchant, and will be
found reliable. Ed.
Boston, June 20, 100.
BUTTER = There is continued
steady tome all round without any very
active buying, some receivers are
storing their'surplus goods which takes
them from the market. but actual buy
ing for speculation is light. Fancy
northern creamery can ne quoted from
261c to 27c but little slow at these
figures. Western creamery in ash is
selling from 251c to 26c, but possibly
some fancy lots exceeding this little.
We find fairly good inquiry for Yer.
mont diaries, with tubs generally SELL
ing at 25c, boxes and prints selling
mostly at 2 C.
EGGS-There is fairly steady tone
for choice grades and if anything a
little better market, fancy memories
could be quoted from 25c to 26c with
some fancy lots of easterns bringing
25c, but Maine, New York and Yer.
mont firsts generally selling from 23c
L
state eggs are generally bringing 24c
and this means for selected stock. We
find a steady tone on choice western
eggs and this grade can be quoted from
213c to 22c, but there are fairly good
lines freely offered from 20ac to 21c
The medium grades should be quoted
slow with firm tone for choice stock.
ICED POULTRY-The market has
been quite generously supplied here
for the last few days and on account
of excessively hot weather the trade
has been light and a good deal of stock
has been put in storage for protection.
The market should be quoted slow
round 15c to 153c for choice large fowls.
Western broilers are slow and unless
fancy sell anywhere from l8c to zoe.
NOTE-We rather expect a contin.
ued firm tone on butter with fairly
good market on all grades Of eggs.

INJURY TO ANKLES.
How 3 Treat Sprain by Simple
Methods and Av-id Trouble.

How p Treat Sprain by Simple
Methods and Avid Trouble.
If possible, as soon as an ankle is
Bprained put it under water as hot as
can be endured. alternating with cold
water. The easiest way to manage this
IS in the tub under the hot and cold
water spigot.
This treatment often allays the swell
ing and stops further trouble. 1t is
we'll to summon the doctor at once in
case Of bad sprain. If he is long in
arriving, bandage with antiSeptic band
ages or with adhesive plaster. For the
former wrap it around the ankle and
the middle of the foot alternately in
the form of an eight. Cut the adhesive
plaster in short strips and interlace
them from side to side of the sprain,
pulling tightly to hold the injured parts
in place.
Making a shoe Of medicated clay fire.
quently reduces the Inflammation. This
should be renewed as fast as it dries
up.
Rest the foot in a horizontal posi-
ton. CT, better yet. have it higher than
the hips. When the ligaments are torn
and the ankle must be rested on pill
low, much Of the strain will be relieved
by keeping the foot beyond the edge
of the pillow. which is doubled up IN
der the ankle.
When sprain is bad. necessitating
inaction for long time, the circula-
ton should be kept up by massaging
frequently from the knees to the ar
kle. more particularly the calf of the
leg. The massage movements should
be upward. If this is kept up many
times a day from the time Of the acci-
dent, there will be no pain in walking,
even after weeks Of Gisused muscles.
There is apt to be weakness for
months after a hard sprain. To avoid
further trouble one should wear a sup
port of some kind. This may be a
woven stocking made of rubber or silk
or a leather anklet that laces up the
front and slips over the heel.

Forgiven but Not Forgotten.
Mr.. Editor:

Mr.. Editor:
AS the Monitor is a constant visitor
in my nome and is read by all the fam.
lily, | would like a little space in it's
columns to express my sentiments in
regard to the st. Adams raid. Your
Derby correspondent of May 10, holds
up Col, Young as a model and brave
boy in the service of his country.
Now the facts are there was nothing
brave about it. They simply sneaked
in from a friendly province, without
flag or uniform, robbed three banks
and made off with their plumber This
required about the same amount of
courage that it would take to rob a
chicken roost. Your correspondent
also refers to Gen. Grants magnanim-
ity at AppOmattox. What would he
have had Gen Grant do when Gen.
Lees battered and defeated army laid
down their arms and surrendered rob
and starve them as they did the Union
army? The South fought to disrupt
the Union and to establish a confeder-
acy with slave labor as it's base. The
North fought to preserve the Union
with free labor as base. For aught
/ know Col. Young belonged to a proud
and aristocratic Kentucky family who
before the war could count their acres
by the thousands and their slaves by
the score, and whose opportunities
should have fitted him for a more
worthy cause.

CHARLES R. SMITH INDICTED
Most Sensational Killing the South
Has Had in Years.

Columbus, Miss.-Charles r. Smith,
the slayer of E. A. Laurent, was indicted
by the Lowndes county grand jury Mon
day.
In connection with this famous case,
which promises to reveal sensations as
have never been known before i'll this
part of the South, there has been asked
the question over and over again: "Will
the grand jury indict a man who killed
another because he states he knows he
invaded his home
No case that has ever happened in this
territory for the period of half a century
has excited the same unusual and pecu-
liar interest that this one has. To begin
with, the defendant was tried by a JUS
tice at Artesia, Miss, the scene of the
homicide, the day following the tragedy
and released ON bail of $4,000. Three
days later the brother of the dead man
arrived in Columbus, swore out an af-
fidavit before the justice of this district,
the defendant was re-arrested, a second
trial held and bail was refused. Four
days later the grand jury took action.

ton of B. A. Bradley, a prominent and
wealthy planter living near here. They
were arrested after being tracked down
by bloodhounds, led by officers and fol.
lowed by a posse of heavily armed citi-
gems. 1t is feared that the whole crowd
will be lynched, for the town is filled
with excited men, ,who nave been held
in leash all night by the conservative
leaders of the community, and also by
the fact it is not definitely known that
these negroes actually committed the
crime for which they are held.
The dogs are out on another trail, and
until that posse returns 1t is probable
that no action will be taken against the
prisoners.
Mr.. Bradley was shot down from alb
bush late yesterday afternoon OF a
bridge over a bayou about half a mile
from his residence. He had gone over to
the cabin of one of his negro tenants to
prevent a white man from executing a
threat to whip his tenant, and was on
his way back home when killed.

CONFEDERATE REUNION DATE
Big Gathering Will Be Held at
Memphis June g, 8 end 10.

Memphis, Tenn.-The nineteenth an
nual reunion of the United Confederate
Veterans will be held in this city June
g., 0 and 10. These dates are officially
announced by Gen. VIM. f. Mickle, adj
jutant-gencral and chief of staff to Gen.
Clement A.. Evans, commander-in-chief
of the United Confederate Veterans. The
dates were selected at a conference held
with w. j. Crawford, chairman, and the
executive reunion committee.
In speaking of the coming reunion,
Gen. Mickle said:
81 am going to use every effort I know
of to make the reunion of 1908 one Of
the grandest and biggest ever given.
II am inclined to believe more people
will come to Memphis this year than has
attended any reunion for the past ten
years. Of course, this must not be I'm.
derstood that more old soldiers will be
here, because that would be impossible.
The commands are thinning out.

ton. But, of course, there are hundreds
of them unable to travel, and therefore
cannot 90 to reunions. It's the general
public now scattered all over the South,
West and Southwest that always goes to
these reunions, and I believe this one

least 125, 900 people,"

Big Increase in Assessment.

Basing the estimate on records of for
mer years, Mississippi's realty assess
ment this year will show an increase of
at least $25, 100000, and the increase
in personality and railroad assessments
will put the sum total of the increase to
fully $50, 100000. This will increase the
states revenue for 1909 about $50, 900,
as compared with last years receipts at
the treasury. In 1908 the total assess
ment for the commonwealth was 1884,
712,9o7, apportioned as follows: Realty,
1927, 500 ,643; personality, $112,539,367;
railroads, $44,5s2,s99. The realty fig
ures cited are the same as those for 1907,
no general assessment of realty having
been made since that year. Tax ac-
countants of the state auditors office
say they will not be surprised if the
sum total of the 1909 assessment is more
than $50, 100000 higher than the assess
ment of last year. As a rule, they will
not venture forecasts until assessment re-
ports are received from the various coun-
ties during the early autumn, it being
impossible to make appropriations ex-
cept on the basis of figures for former
years.
