is up the river in the Blue range of mountains, one of the finest that could be chosen, for at no time were they short on feed and water, which is a most essential quality for the raising of stock anywhere in Arizona. These gentlemen richly deserve every dollar they have made, for by their fair and honor able manner of doing business they have gained the esteem and respect of their neighbors and all with whom they came in contact.

Live Stock Market.

KANSAS CITY, Nov. 25, 1910.- Cattle received here this week 44,100, last week 65, 100, same week last year 63, 200. The thanksgiving holiday cut into receipts this week, and commission men have been
 advising shippers to hold off. Re- ports from some sections indicate a more confident feeling than prevailed short time ago, relative to the cattle market this winter. Prices have advanced all along the line this week, killing grades 15 to 30 cents higher, stockers and feed CTS not much changed, although moving freely. Light weight steers lead in demand, with yearlings bringing top prices, different lots this week at $7 9 and $7 30. Hea- w steers have not been fairly re- presented here this week, $6 75 top on them, bulk of short fed steers .$5.15 to $6.25. There seems to be a little reaction from the recent depression in food prices, and traders say that part of the decline on live stock was due to sentiment, and will not stand. Hogs will probably not gain any of their

loss, but cattle and sheep are ex- pected to do a little better than for the past two weeks. They already show considerable improvement over the low period, both in price, and general healthfulness of trade. Bulk of cows and heifers sell at $3.50 to $500, tops up to $5.75 this week, calves $500 to $8 25, bulls $3 .25 to $4.35, stock steers $3.75 to $500, feeders $4.25 to S5.25, in- cluding westerns in the latter clas- ses. Quarantine supply has been extremely small, and quality com mon. A good run from the West has arrived, Colorado beef steers around $5 10, COWS and heifers $3.75 to $4 50, Panhandle and New Mexico cows $3 25 to $4.00, calves up to $500.
 Hogs here this week 39,700, last week 53,500, same week last year 59, 800. The market has tended downward regularly, and took the usual drop of 5 to 10 cents this morning from force of habit. As soon as 1t got into action to-day, the market began to improve, and the close was almost steady. All kinds sold within a range of 15 cents, from $6.90 to $705, with top lights at $7.00, run 1000. More light hogs are coming all the time, indicating change of policy in the country, from feeding for weight, to early marketing, to get in ahead of expected declines.
 Sheep this week 3S,0OO, last week 45, ,000, same week last year 28,3000. The market has revived wonder fully this week, and everywhere there is talk of firm markets for awhile. Some traders argue that the number supposed to be on feed has been grossly overestimated, and that winter markets will prove remunerative to feeders after all. Prices are 30 to 90 cents higher this week, including a rise of 15 to 9 cents to-day. Lambs reached $6.15s to-day, yearlings $4.zl, wethers $4.15, ewes worth around $4.00 for tops. Feeding lambs sell at $475 to $5 %.

foreman of the Double Circle ranch, is in town, having just returned from trip to New Mexico, where he went to buy well-broke COW ponies. He bought fifty-fi i've head for the average good price of STA, not getting more than six from one place. They were brought Over- land to the home ranch and are a fine lot of animals.
 Coconino Sun: Ray Hill, who, with Paul Wright, is interested in the cattle industry at Camp Wood returned to the city after a months absence. He states that during the season over 2,000 head of steers have been shipped out of that sec ton, and at no time in the history of the range has there been such a prosperous era. Prices have been high and the feed is good, with in- dications of continuation of the 7avors ble season.
 Tucson Star: B. c. Brichta re- turned Sunday night from a trip to his mining property on the edge of the Santa Rosa valley and re- ports excellent rains in that vicin- ity. It rained hard there for two or three days in succession. Mir Brichta states that the ranges are now in fine condition and there seems to be little danger of losing cattle. He thinks things are shap- ing up for the reduction of meat prices on the local market, as the cattle yield will be a big one. The Indians in the Santa Rosa valley are taking advantage of the rains to do their blowing and are show ing great activity. They expect tc do a big part of the marketing which is done in this city here after, and some of them have fine crop prospects.
 Yuma Sun: When the fall ship nents of cattle now in progress art completed, $250,000 will have beer rplaced in circulation in TucsOr during the fall months, according ao E. L. Vail of the Empire ranch An erroneous impression has be come prevalent, he says, to the effect that the cattle are being shipped out of Pima county to th' coast because they are being starv ed out. As a matter fact, Mir. Val says, the cattle now being shipped ont of this country look we'll, gen srsily speaking, and the heav, shipments are due primarily to tn fact that the prices now being paiC are the highest received by loca cattiemen in the past ten years sOther cattlemen claim that tn current prices now obtained ar SI7 to $20 for yearlings, $19 to S2. der two yearlings, $20 to S24 fo three-year-olds.

Pittsburg, Pa. July 16.-A degree Of
absolute divorce to Mary Scott Hartje
from her husband August Hartje, the
millionaire was granted by Judge Rob-
ert S. Frazier in the common pleas
court today.
The court found that the charge by
Mrs, Hartje of wilful and malicious
desertion is sustained and specified in
the decree that either party may mar
ry again. The Hartje's quarrel has
been before the public for nearly five
years. 1t was begun by the husband,
charging infidelity naming a colored
coachman as correspondent. Later he
was convicted of perjury in connec-
f1on with the trial in which Mr. Hartte
won. She filed countercharges of de-
sertion, which have been pending up
to this time.
1t has been reported recently that
the couple have reached an agreement
as to the money, whereby the divorced
wife will receive $4,000 a year.
"Scotty" Hartje, the 16-year- old son
OF the couple, has been with his father

week drilling for a second vein of
coal which is down 200 feet. A track
WIN be built from town to the mine so
that they will have good railroad
facilities and the hauling and mining
will all be done by electric power
They are also asking the village NJ

Merry NAT MADE GOOD.
HobO's Audacity Gets Him a Meal
from a Minot Eastwood Park Lady.


Minot, N. D., July 16.-Nervy Nat,
Weary William, Dusty Rhodes or some
other celebrity in the kingdom Of pro-
fessional tramps, was in the city this
morning and pulled off a stunt at the
Tompkins residence in Eastwood park,
that would make the funny pictures
In Puck look tame. SO far as their
ability to reflect the nerve of his kind
is concerned.
Late this morning tramp appeared
at the Tomp1ins home and informed
Mrs. Tompkins that he was hungry.
She informed him thar breakfast was
just over and that she couldn't give
him anything to eat at that time.
Then the lady resumed her house,
work Some hours later she was sur
prised to find his trampship occupying
a seat on the porch and was still more
surprised to have him tell her that
he had decided to wait until dinner.
Mrs. Tompkins concluded the best
thing to do was to give the man
meal and after he had eaten it and
thanked her he left the premises.
More reports have recently come to
the police headquarters OF tramps
begging in the outskirts of the city
than in some time. Quite few work.
ing men are travelling through the
country who have been laid off from
crews on railroads. The
police say professional tramps are
more scarce this year than for some
seasons past. The fact that the har-
vest prospect Is not as big as usual

GIRL IN MOON
Is AN ESKIMO

New York, July 16.-Prof. Wilhelm
Verbeck, an ethnologist OF Indianapolis
who has been studying the folk lore
and traditions OF the Eskimos of north
ern Labrador, has returned from St.
Johns, Mid, with notebook full OF
observations taken in the year he
spent in the north. Professor verbeck
says he found the Eskimos intelligent
and little affected by contact with the
whites.
Most of their myths have been pre-
served in primitive freshness Instead
of having man in the moon, they have
a girl. One of their young warriors,
according to the legend. became angry
with his sister, ran at her to box her
ears. and she fed. Finally she got to
the edge of the precipice and he
thought he had her. but her momentum
was so great that instead OF stumbling
off the precipice, she shot right out
into space, The brother gazed at her.
and finally saw her land right in the
middle Of the moon.
Professor Yerbeck has brought back
many other interesting traditions.
