Oyster Bay, oct. 15.-CoL Roosevelt got

things about exterminating the house fly

him unless he took care of his voice
he would not be able TO make any more
campaign speeches. Tho colonel was
very harsh with the house fly.
1t reminded him of "a small insect in
Africa known as the spirilla tick. of
which travellers. it appeared, stood in
dread that was equaled only by that
which sleeping sickness inspires.
Sleeping sickness held no terrors for
me- exclaimed the colonel 20 the doc
tors. They were gathered together at
the oyster Bay opera House with the
special purpose of devising means 10
wipe the house fly of the map.
There was no mention OF politics in
his address. but as soon as he left the
platform the medical audience nodded its
heads TO one another and spoke darkly
about the coioneTs voice They made
no bones of their opinion that il he con-
tinues with his campaign speeches his
throat viii be in serious condition.

CURIos EFFECT OF
OLD-AGE PENSION

Dublin, June 8.-tSpecial) "A 4curio Is
effect of the old-age pension law has. been
the wonderful improvement in the posi-
ton of the Irish mother-inslaw This was
brought out when Patrick Connolly was
charged at Dublin with assaulting hi ]
r.other-in-law. Counsel explained to the
jury that married men were not sup
posed to be desperate admirers ofi>theirs
mothers-i n-law. but social change had
been worked by the old-age' pension act,
because If they had a mother-in-law who
was drawing an old-age pension they
took as much care of her as II she were
a precious piece of China The old ques-
ton used to be which of that family
could be got to support the mother-iri-
law; now every door was open to her
and solicitations were addressed to her
as she went by, Wont you stay with
your loving daughter and affectionate
son-in-law?" The mother-in-law OF this
man became an old-age pensioner.s She
had been living with him for years, but
there was another daughter Lying next
door. The poor old woman, who was be-
tween so and 80, took a notion after 10
years of his loving attendance that she
would leave him and go and live with
the daughter. This caused the assault,

sas will be about ended this week, and
although the range country viii ship
freely few weeks more. total receipts
will decrease each week from now on.
Top fed steers sold at $3.50 today in
the native division. A feature in the
cattle market today is the shipment
OF four cars of pure-bred bulls and
cows today to Honolulu. which have
been assembled here in the last two
weeks.
Hogs advanced rapidly the first half
OF last week, but the market went
down just as fast the last half, and the
finish was no hetter than close OF pre-
vious week. There was a better feel
ing Saturday. which has ripened into
la positive advance today, on the meagre
supply of $500 head. Receipts in
creased perceptibly last week under
the influence of the advance, but from
the size of the supply today il looks
like more bait will have to be laid out
this week to draw in any considerable
run. Packers suddenly remembered to-
day that they needed some hogs: mar
ket 10c higher; heavy weights $3.50
$50; mediums $S.S5@9.05: lights

Sheep and lambs are still coming
freely, and the market changes very
little. Run is $4,000 today; market
strong TO 10c, higher; top lambs $3.50;
wethers s400@450; ewes s3.50@4.25
to killers. Packers only take the tops,
and are not getting enough to be bur
densome, and country buyers clean up
the balance readily at steady prices.
