the first Saturday Of June. 1911.
Receipts Of hogs at the Chicago stock
Yards last week, 10000 or 1920
more than precious week, 20,3o0 more
than 4 year year ago and 5000 more

Total receipts Of cattle last week
we're 81 100, against 56.34 last week
and 1928 a year ago, while of this
crop the shippers have taken $500,
against 22,6S6 last week and 1891 a
year ago Feeder output has fallen con-
sidarably short of week ago. due to
the smaller receipts, but a healthful
sign in this end of the deal has been
the general urgency Of demand from
all sections, since good rains have been
more or less general. The country has
awakened to the fact that feeder and
stock steers have been cheap, and with
anything like decent pasture condi-
tons in the next few weeks there will
likely be fewer immature steers Of
fered on the market, since those who
own them will be looking ahead with a
view to keeping them and maturing
beef in the fall.
| At six markets total receipts OF
| cattle for the week were 100
against $4,000 last week and 107, loo
year ago, the falling off in aggregate
run at six points compared with las,
week, despite increase at Chicago, sug-
costing serenity among the western
cattle owners as regards the feed stu
alton, since the liquidation of mid
June is no more.

Parents Meeting.

There will be held parents meeting
of the parents of high school pupils, on
the evening of Wednesday, October rs.
The meeting will be held in the assem-
bly, room of the high school at o'clock.
The purpose of this meeting is to
give the parents definite understand
ing of what the teaching force is at
tempting to accomplish. 1t will be an
endeavor on the part of the teachers
to secure active cooperation from par
ents by setting forth the method pur-
sued in conducting the school. The re-
ports of the work of the first six weeks
will have been issued before that time.
The meeting will give the parent an
opportunity TO determine the meaning
of the report and to receive informa-
ton concerning the indications of the
report. 1t is sincerely to be hoped
that every parent, every father and
mother, who may find it possible to do
so, and every adult of the city who is
interested in the welfare of the local

Evangelistic Meetings at the Metho-
dist Church.

DR.. Joel A. Smith of Beloit, assisted
by Prof. Dibble, general secretary of
the Y. NJ. G. A., and Mrs Dibble, will
commence a series of meetings in the
Methodist church about October 18th.
DIR. Smith comes with the best of
recommendations as an evangelist of
more than ordinary ability and an ear
nest worker. His work in the past has
been in nearly every state in the Union
and in the foreign countries. Every
where he has been he has met with
great success and thousands have been
converted through his work. He is an
orator who is extraordinarily strong in
the pulpit and in order to appreciate to
the fullest extent his ability one must
hear him. Just how much good can be
accomplished depends altogether on the
Christian people of this community.
They will have to work in harmony
with Dr. Smith and his assistants and
do their bidding.
Mr.. Dibble will act as musical direc-
tor in the meetings here. He has been
engaged in special evangelistic work
three years. During that time he was
connected with some of the ablest
evangelists in the land. His work the
last year has been most of the time in
St. Louis. His labors have also ex-
tended through Colorado and the west.
and through Michigan. He has labored
in the following cities: Kalamazoo,
Grand Rapids, Chicago, Denver, San
Francisco and Spokane, besides many
of the cities III various states. He has
a rich baritone voice of great fexibility
and rich quality. He is regarded as
one of the most superior solo singers
in the west.

If farmers would unite and insist
upon law being passed narrowing the
highways about one-half, or at least a
rod and half, they would be getting
back millions of acres for farm land
and be doing service to the people at
the same time. The highways are half
waste in many places, and barely one
half of them are worked, and the other
half, on each side, grows up to noxious
| weeds and brush.

Jury Finds Women Sane.

Mrs. Ida Knoll of Edgerton, who was
given a jury examination in the county
court Thursday morning to determine
her sanity, was found to be Of sane
mind. The jury came to this decision
after a conference of less than five
minutes.
Complaint was entered by neighbors
of the woman in Edgerton who had de-
clared that her actions were Indicative
of insanity, as she had repeatedly
charged them with stealing articles
which had belonged to her. The COM
plant was signed by these neighbors,
none of whom appeared in court.
Mrs. Knoll had previously lived in
the town of Albion and after. the death
of her husband, who was killed in fall
ing from train in Edgerton over two
years ago, she had lived with neighbors
in that township. She alleged these
people, however, to be dishonest to-
ward her regarding the disposal Of
farm machinery which constituted the
sole property Of her husband. About
two years ago she moved to Edgerton
and supported herself and four small
children by washing, sewing and per-
forming other domestic duties. Dur
ing this time she had had trouble with
a number of her neighbors as she al
legged they had taken various articles,
including linen, silverware and chick
ems. They in turn had accused her of
misconduct.
The jury found that the facts in the
case did not warrant verdict of insan-
ity and they declared her sane. The
jury was composed of the following:

Wallace Cechrane Norman Parker and

Mrs. Dibble will devote much of her
work to special services and labors
among the young ladies. She is very
superior worker, and has had much ex-
rerience in evangelism. She has a
charming personality, and her winning
ways will no doubt impress many and
her influence will be great force in
the meeting. Thus the workers will
have their respective labor and it re-
mains for the people to cooperate with
these laborers in the Masters vineyard.
