Live Stock Market.

KANSAS CITY, Sept. 16, 1910- Cattle here this week 79000, last week 80,000, same week last year 83,0O0. Trade in beef cattle has been in a slumpy condition all week, and the close to-day is 15 to 30 lower on steers below the first grade. Statesmen had to resort to more peddling this week than any week before this fall, and actions of buyers plainly indicated that they were confronted with meat channels more or less choked. Cows are 10 to 15 lower, calves firm. The big country demand has been the salvation of the mar ket for everything of value under $500, medium and light weight stock steers little higher than week ago, other kinds of country cattle steady. Markets east have had too many cattle this week, and are sending out warnings against too many cattle for next week. Lo- cal supply has not been excessive this week, and could have been handled at steady prices but for adverse reports from other points. Best steers this week $500, top yearlings $7 30, Kansas grass steers $4.50 to $7.20, cows $3 50 to $4 9, best heavy cows $5 %, top veals $8.25. stocke5s $3.50 to $500, feed- CTS $4 25 to $5 90.
 Hogs this week 27, 100, last week

2l,600, same week last year 47 100 The market has recovered 10 to 20 cents from the big break of We'd nesday, including 5 higher mar ket to-day, The run dropped down immediately after the break, and only 2000 are here to-day. There should be an increase in receipts about this time, and itis expected within the next week or two, at whatever cost to the market. Pack CTS seem to be willing to take advantage ol any increase in the run. Heavy hogs sell to-day at $9.0O to $9 25, medium weights S9 20 to $955, light weights S9 40 to $9.55
 Sheep received here this week 41S00, last week 3S400, same week last year 25100. As in the cattle market, country demand is doing wonders for the sheep market. Packers are also buying literally, and the market is closing the week 10 to 20 higher than close of last week. Lambs easily reach S7 % now, some natives at that figure to day, feeding lambs worth $G 25 to $6.50, some feeding yearlings st few davsat S5 35, fat wethers S4.60, ewes $425 to $435. A string of Idaho feeding ewes sold this week at $3 55. Bulk of the stuff is from Idaho and Utah, big strings of nice even stuff, good flesh and we'll bred. Liberal runs are looked for next week.

Many queer reasons are advanced by servant girls for losing a place" said the manager of the employment bureau. ttbut the queerest have ever heard was given by a girl who blew in here last week. Her late mistress was a bridge fiend. One day for the want of money to bet she and her friends played with their maids for stakes. At the end of the game each woman considered herself in honor bound to stick to her agreement, and an attempt was really made to swap servants according to the ups and downs of the game. Some of the girls thus rallied of changed places willing ly enough, but that client of mine re- fused to be swapped and hustled around hunting new job."-New York Sun.
