Under the smirk on his painted
face,
Faint from playing the mad buff

In the sawdust ring of the
circus place.
But deep in his eyes was a tender
flame,
And low and soft as birding S
coo.
Out from his blackened lips there
came
The Tilt of a melody, wistful-
true.

Paid to prank for the gaping
crowd,
But love has made me a golden
crown
And there is never a king more
proud.
My love is kinder than words of
June,
My love Is sweeter than fields
of May,
Her voice is like a ripping tune
That dances my doubts and my
woes away.
"She loves the clown that is
often
With face as white as the
wintry moon,
Yumbling about in the sawdust

She loves her ludicrous Panta-

MARKET BREAKS
RUN OF $4,000 SENDS PRICES
DOWN is 70 IS CENTS; CAT
TLE&TRApE UNEVEN.

Chicago, Feb. 13.-Enormous run OF
hogs, $1,000 today. was too much for
the market and a break Of Is to 25c
was noted at the opening. Later the
bulk was full quarter lower. Only
sort who did not show the full break
was strictly fancy light animals. The
extreme top was $40, an outside fig-
.ure and good lights were bought at
S7.25@7 100, while packers bought all
the good butcher hogs they wanted at
$7.15@7.2O. Heavy packers were quoted
around 81 and rough sorts probably
would sell under that figure.
Cattle were more or less uneven. The
run was heavier than anticipated.
Steers were in fair demand on ship
ping account. Butcher stock had a
slightly easier tone.
. Sheep and lamb trade was little
mixed. Demand for mature muttons
was fair and the market looked steady.
but lambs showed a tendency to ease
of little and In spots were quoted 10
lower. Buyers called the market about
steady. The bulk OF good lambs went at
$c@6.15.
