MAN AND HORSE KILLED
BY TWO TEXAS STEERS
Broke Loose In Chicago and Created
Wild Excitement Before They
Were Put to Death.

Chicago. Aug. 24.--Two steers from
the Western range went on a rampage
yesterday and before they we're shot
down they had gored to death one man
and horse.
Michael Burns. employed at the Chi.
cago Union stock yards, was asserting
a drove OF steers when one Of the an
mails broke from the drove and charged
wildly through the alleys dividing the
separating pens
Burns, who had one blind eye, did
not see the onrushing animal until 1t
was within few feet Of him. He tried
to frlghten It away, but the steer
charged with full force, striking Burns
in the stomach with its horns and
carrying him several feet. Burns. after
reaching the hosltal, died.
Another steer. after escaping from a
North Side amusement park. plunged
through several fences, chased pedes-
trians. terrified inmates OF the Martha
Washington and killed horse before
II was shot to death.

The heads of the different schools
are constantly receiving inquiries from
young people who want to come to
school and work morning and evening
for their board. The homes G. Bryan
would find this most satisfactory
way to get their yard work and chores
done. 1t would at the same time en-
courage industry among our white
young people, and to a great extent
remedy one of the greatest defects in
this country. viz, lack Of competent
white help. Our most successful and
useful young people today are those
who know how to work To know how
to work Is to be useful. Any home de-
string a student upon these terms dur
ing the coming school term kindly ad-
wise the secretary and they may be
supplied.
The editorial in The Eagle yesterday
referring to the devotion of the mem
bers of the executive board of this club
was read by the secretary with much
interest and pleasure. II the people of
Bryan could realize, as the secretary
does, the unselfsh desire for the bet
terment of Bryan that those gentlemen
each has, the monthly meeting of the
club would be crowded to overflow,
and the membership list would In
crease each day, with general desire
to support and cooperate. Their labor
is sure to bear fruit commensurate
with their earnest labor.
We neglected to say in yesterdays
notes that all were delighted to greet
the president, Major McInnis, after his
vacation. He brought good tidings Of
great Joy" for the future of Bryan.
The secretary received an invita-
ton from the president of the Com

|DRY FARMING
CROPS GOOD
Interest Growing in Scientific Dry
Farming, and II May Change
Whole System.

Spokane, Wash, Aug. 24.-"Every-
where In the Northwest we have found
the crops showing up fine, when dry
weather conditions are considered.
Scientific work has paid well, while
in other places, where the farmers
paid no heed to conserving the moist
ure and to the proper tilling OF the
soil. the crops are failures"
DR.. L. j. Briggs, physicist in charge,
of the United States department of
agriculture. who is in Spokane to con-
fer with officers. of the Dry Farming
Congress, said this in an interview. He
is accompanied by DIR. H. l.. Shantz.
who is investigating the drouth resist.
ing plants of the West for the bureau
OF animal industry. DR.. Briggs said
the crops are in better condition than
he looked for, In view OF the early
reports sent out. adding:
I'VE have been visiting the dry farm
experiment stations the government is
conducting and we found every place
making progress. At the Morrow sta
ton, which is being conducted with
the cooperation of the Oregon Agri-
cultural College, we found everything
in good shape. They have splendid
buildings and they are located on old
land, and the work is mainly a oues-
tion of maintenance for fertility. The
investigations thus far conducted have
been successful and profitable. The
station is located in a district having
the lowest rainfall of any dry farm
government station. the precipitation
being less than 10 inches annually.
The work will be in full operation by
next spring and believe II will be
successful.
From Spokane we go to the station
at Hobson. Mont, and thence to the
new farm at Mitchell, Neb. Then we
shall go to a meeting OF scientific
workers and dry farmers at Dalhart,
in the Panhandle OF Texas, and from
there return to Washington to COM
plete our reports.

KANSAS CITY
LIVE STOCK MARKET

Kansas City Stock Yards, Aug. 22.--
Marketing of quarantine cattle under
went further shrinking last week, total
receipts 310 ears, a small decrease
from previous week. and a big loss
from same week last year. Receipts
in native division were also smaller
than the corresponding week last year,
and to still further encourage owners
who had cattle here the outlet was
considerably broadened over any pre-
vious week this season. Every buyer
for killing houses rode hard all week,
and prices Of quarantine cattle, both
steers and cows. advanced Is to 25
cents. While the stocker and feeder
trade in the native division was not
quite up to expectations last week, 1t
was the largest week OF the season,
nearly 500 car loads going into this
trade. The present week is opening
very promising; the run moderate for
the season at less than 10000 head,
including $500 calves today, and the
market steady to 10 cents higher
calves a quarter higher. Some little
9O0-pound steers brought $3.50 in the
quarantine division today, and practic
ally no steers sell under s4.15 now;
top in the last week s5.25. Bulk OF the
steers sell at s435 to s4.90, and weigh
from $50 to 975 pounds. A good many
Gamers hate been coming lately, and
sell at $500 to $3.50; fat cows $3.50 to
$4.25; a good many heifers lately,
around $500; best light veals worth
$500; heavy calves $500 to $3.50; bulls
s3.15 to $3.50. The big reduction in
receipts of quarantines is caused by
owners holding back to get the benefit
of improved condition of pastures to a
large extent. Some cattle will be win
tered at home that might appear on
the market If weather conditions were
not so favorable.
Hog receipts we're lightest of the
year last week. $4,000 head. and the
market made an average gain Of 20
cents for the week. Heavy hogs gained
the most. as packers are meeting an
extra good demand for big weight
product. The situation is regarded as
bullish from every angle at this time.
Run here today is only 1000 head;
market snappy and 15 to 20 cents
higher; heavy hogs today at $3.50 to
$50; medium weights $3.50 to S9.05;
light hogs $3.50 to s905.
Sheep advanced 10 to 25 cents last
week; lambs steady for the week.
Runs have been normal, but are on the
verge of a big increase, as several
shipments of sUtahs are en- route for
this weeks market. Run today is g.
600 head; market strong to 10 cents
higher; top lambs $500; yearlings
1915; wethers $3.50; ewes s4.25. Feed
ing stuff is held at stiff prices, and
demand is strong, but this class will
likely show some declines with the
advent of liberal supplies.
