fail to hear these eminent men of the
Gospel.
We enjoyed the presence of large
and enthusiastic audiences all day
last Sunday. The Rev. ]. c. Carter of
Cripple Creek preached soul-stirring
sermon in the morning and at night
the pastor preached in the absence of
the Rev. ]. w. Fant. Two members
have been added to the church during
the past week, Miss Esther Ragland
and Miss Mildred House, both INTEL
igent young ladies' of great promise.

Miss Luella Perry led the League
last Sunday evening. Mr.. Eli Burrell

way that appeals to them.
The contract for shingling the
church and parsonage has been let
Mr.. A j. Fitzpatrick was the FORUM
ate bidder among the many bids that
were re eived by the building commit

the buildings are shingled, but will
commence to paint the two buildings.

the interior and place new carpets on

Pasco, Wash.-The 6-year-old son
of ]. f. Young had an almost mi
raculous escape. While playing
horse" with other youngsters he
threw one end of a rope which was
tied to his arm against the revolving
brush of the street sweeper. The
rope wound around the brush and
pulled the boy along and the brush
made three revolutions, carrying the
child around each time. Had he be-
come entangled six inches to the
right his head would have struck the
wheels. Driver j. +. Sullivan had
warned the youngsters to stay away
from the sweeper. Beyond bruises
the boy is not seriously hurt

DECIDED DECLINE

of Cattle and Market Is Strong
Wheat Takes Big Drop.
(From TUESDAYS Journal =

The livestock market was quiet to-
day. The sharp decline in the price
OF hogs yesterday, which has been ex-
clusively forecasted by this paper, has
left the trade of the opinion that fur
ther price slashng will be forced un-
less there is radical change in the
eastern situation.
1t is even possible that with the in
creasng offerings OF local hogs. a suf-
ficient supply will be forthcoming to
the Pacific northwest to make this
market independent of the Missouri
river trade. In that event still fur
ther declines in values would be fore
ed because packers here would not
pay more than other markets unless
forced to by lack OF supplies.
While there were no hogs offered
in the yards today and the totals for
the month OF October are but S95l
compared with 11.OS3 Tor the same
period last year. most of this months

that averaged 1873 pounds sold at
$3.50, the highest price of the season,

He Was KILLING Them of

A teacher, wishing to inn
press upon her pupils the popu-
lation of China, said:
"The population of China is
so great that every time you
breathe two chinaman die"
Ir a short time a little boy at
the foot of the class was MOTTO
ed by the teacher to be breath
ing aud putting vigorously. The
teacher, much alarmed at his
actions, inquired:
What is the matter? What
on earth are you doing?

quick reply. IL don't like these.

MARRIED WOMEN AND CON.
TRACTS.

Switzerland is in an uproar as the
outgrowth Of a recent decision of its
federal court. The decision was equiv
alent to a declaration that a married
woman in that country cannot be held
to any contract which she makes with
out her husbands approval. This de-
cision leaves bank which instituted
the litigation to whistle for $4,000
which was risked in contract with a
married woman, whose husband was
not called into consultation when 1t
was made. AS to what should be
done. differences Of opinion prevail,
says the Milwaukee Wisconsin. Some
business men are for the enactment
of law holding women equally liable
with men for carrying out the provi-
sions Of contracts. Others suggest
that all married women in Switzer-
land shall bear a small official indel-
ible tattoo mark on their wrists SO
that they may be- recognized. The
finding Of the Swiss court is by no
means without analogy. In respect
Of contracts made by one individual
being void without the consent Of an
other 1t is matched by the law in this
country which prevents husband
from selling the family homestead un-
less his wife joins in the deed. After
all the Swiss situation is not so ter
rible for people in trade.
