topping all previous records since 1870
Chicago, Feb. 21.-Strength in hogs
1 was shown at the outset. and tho the
packers tried hard to prevent an adj
vance they finally We're forced to pay
higher prices than the shipper and
scalpers. The top was Sa.4 and it was
rumored that as high as $3.50 was
reached at one time. The general adj
vance was 10 cents, tho spots We're Is
cents above Saturdays closing time
Average price of hogs last week at
ss.17 is highest for any week since
August, 1870, standing ~ cents above
previous week, So so higher than a
year ago. s4.s1 higher than two years
ago, s5.47 higher than corresponding
week of 1899 and 1852 above the gem
eral average of the CORES ponding week
from 1899 10 1909. inclusive.
Combined receipts of hogs at eleven
markets the past week totaled 100000,
or 21,000 more than previous week.
100000 less than year ago, 10000,
less than two years ago and $1,000 less
than the ten-year average of the cor
responding week from 1900 to 1909,
inclusive. Combined receipts at eleven
markets for 1910 TO date 3.516,000, or
1,16S,000 less than year ago and p
1000 less than two years ago
Cattle.
Cattle were steady to strong, steers
generally 10 cents higher.
Receipts for last week total $4,000,
against $1,000 the previous week and
$4,000 year ago. Included in last
weeks offerings We're some very good,
well finished steers. yet the proportion
of the choice grades was small, COM
pared with the number Of comm on and
light cattle offered. The recent adj
vance in prices has mad no material eff
feet in checking xhe flow of comm on
stuff marketward. There is still a sur
plus of il coming in. tho prices for the
cheap grades are low enough to be dis
couraging.
An advance of 100 25c was estab-
lshed in the market last week most
Of the improv ernert being on the handy
light weights of good quality. Tho
shippers took all of the good, heavy
steers they could find, they were not
able TO find as many as they needed,
anu 50 Ile IgnleF calile TOOK their at
tention. The whole market moved up
the scale some and stands on a salts
factory level from the sellers view
point. In the past three weeks. or since
the agitation against high priced meat
started, prices have been RAPIDLY climb
ing up and many steers are considered
SO sc higher than ar the low sag in
January. There has been a gain Of
about 15G 25c each week for the last
three weeks.
Prospects are still very good and I'M
less the supply is abnormal this week
traders look for still higher prices. The
advance in the other markets it is
thought will help the cattle trade.
Sheep.
Sheep We're strong. while lambs were
disposed TO rule weaker. One load Of
native lambs brought $3.50.

IN his life, designated to be the recipient
Cntil the convention which was held in
Omaha, the death benefit amounted to
sic, but at this convention the amount was
raised, for this district to Sl20.
In its scope the order is far-reaching
Not only are chapters found in all portions
of the United States, but it has chapters
among the coiored race in Africa. At the
head of the general lodge is Sir Rev. Frank
Wilson of Topeka, Kan, who is known as
Chief Grand Mentor and bears the burden
of directing executlvely the whole organiza-
ton. The grand preceptress OF the order is.
at present Daughter Emma Gaines also of
Topeka Kan.
For purposes of actual government, the
lodge is divided into districts and It was a
convention of one of these districts that
was held in Omaha. The local district
comprises the states OF Kansas and Me-
braska and is headed by A. NJ Hurl, who
bears the title, district grand mentor
The local lodge is the unit from which
the whole organization is formed. These
are found in most Of the cities Of import
ance i'm the United States and are OF three
classes known as temples tabernacles OF
tents, according as their membership is

composed Of men, women or children, for
be il known that the knights of Tabor
is one OF few lodges, If not the only one
in the country. which admits children to its
membership In Omaha there are four
tabernacles, two temples and two tents.
In South Omaha is one tabernacle. the tenn
pie, which formerly existed there having
become extinct.
Chat there existed a lodge with such
ideas and ideals, would, however, be of lit
tie consequence, were ii not true that 1t
lives up TO these One who heard the re-
ports at the sessions of the convention
which was held here and saw the general
air of seriousness with which affairs were
conducted could not doubt the seriousness
Of the negroes is their desire to make their
lodge stable and permanent thing.
The same attitude was reflected in the
conduct In public of the 800 negroes from all
parts of Kansas and Nebraska who were
in attendance upon the convention. one
did not sec the careless spendthrift negro
who decorates the pages of fiction nor did
he see the dlsOrderly turbulent negro who
has brought so much discredit upon his
race. The colored people who attended
the Omaha convention were polite intent

that has sprung up among tho negroes of
the country in comparatively recent years.
Primarily the object of the lodge is the
betterment of the condition of the Amer
lean negro This they seek to accomplish,
ros By creating FEELING oi auimosity IN
linn toward the white man or by teaching
him an exaggerated idea of his own i'm
portanee The end is sought to be accom-
piished, rather, by instillinG into him and
by demanding OF him, before he is ad-
mitted to the order, habits of thrift and
honesty. In the whole plan of government
OF the order it is easy to discern methods
wonderfully akin to those which one is
wont to admire in Booker 4. Washington
and other negroes who are generally a bit
ahead OF their race i'm learning.
The first object of the order is to help
its members by the creation of a fraternal
feeling among them and to that end semi
monthly meetings of the local lodges are
held. The feature however, which reflects
most brilliantly the farsishtedness Of the
men who have been at the head OF the
order is what these colored people call their
endowment. This is fund which is kept
in the treasury OF the lodge from which
upon the death of a member. benefit is
paid to any person whom the member has

upon which we are standing is holy

most beautiful of the kind known to man.
The walls and floors are Of the purest of

which rest Shah Jehan, one Of the most
famous Mohammedan sultans of the past,
and his wife, the beautiful Muntaz Mahal.

Above these tombs. hanging Down by a

the end of that time Muntaz died ana Shah
Jehan went into mourning. Ills grief was
such that his hair became white within a.
few weeks. During that time he denied
himself to courtiers and for two years re-
fused all the pleasures of life. Every Fri
day, which is the Mohammedan Sunday he
visited his wife's grave and over it read
the prayers for the dead.
\ little later he began the construction
of this temple and tomb, employing an
Italian architect to make the designs. Tho
work was begun within two years after
the death Of Muntaz Mahal, and for twen-
ty-two years 20,O00 workmen were daily
employed upon it's construction. Their
labor was forced and they received only
their food for their pay and of that they
were cheated by the grafters of their times.
The materials used were marble and sand
stone, which came from the state quarrles,
and the precious stones, gold and silver
and mother-of-pearl used for the iulaying
were gifts of rajahs and others Never
theless the structure cost all told something,

most beautiful government building, the
national library at Washington. The marble
screen which have described cost $4,000
and it took ten years to make it. Originally

which cost $4,000, but this was changed TO

cost more than 100000.
After the structure was completed Shah
Jahan set aside the revenue of thirty viii
lagos TO keep it in order. and lie covered
his wife's sarcophagus with a pail en-
broidered with pearls The records say that
he mourned for this woman to the day OF
his death and that she had great influ-
ence upon his life. She was his conlpanio
and friend. He consulted with her on state
affairs and trusted her with the royal seal
and took her along with him on one of his
military campaigns. She was noted for her
beauty and charity and II is said that she
was religious and special patron of indl-
gent orphans. Upon her tomb are now en-.
