MACON, GEORGIA
The Cow Boy Band returned from
Macon, Georgia, last Monday morn
ing, where II had been In attendance
upon the Confederate reunion.
The Junior editor OF the Signal &C
companied the band and as many of
our readers will doubtless be glad
to read of the floods and general
conditions in the old states, | will
make short sketch OF our trip.
Our special car was attached to
the east bound Texas and Pacific
train at Roscoe Friday night, May
Bird, and our long journey to the
hills of Georgia was begun. We start
ed out with the expectation of hay-
ing TO swim when we got down into
Louisiana and was not looking for
much rain or water until VIC reached
the state line, but TO our surprise It
began raining on us at Abilene and
did not let up until we reach
con, Ga. We did not see the sun but
one time from Friday TO Tuesday
evening.
At Fort Worth, our car was at

ney around by Jackson and Meridian
Mississippi. We did not get to see
any OF the wreckage until on our re-
turn. The wreck occurred Just as
the train was approaching a small
trestle over a ravine. An eye witness
states that he was watching the
train, when suddenly the engine
seemed 20 rise or hump up and then
stagger and topplo over, roll down
the embankment and land bottom
side up In a ditch. The baggage car
also landed bottom side up; the two
chair cars telescoped each other and
then rolled down the embankment.
The engineer and fireman were
both caught under the engine and
crushed to death and II is a wonder
that every one In the coaches was not
killed or injured. No one seems to
know the exact cause of the wreck
An experienced locomotive engineer.

about the disaster stated that he be-

pulled the throttle open too wide and
the sudden turning on OF the steam

SHEEP-Priees for sheep and lambs
were all marked higher again today. but
packers seemed willing enough to spend
their money and the trade throughout
had plenty OF life. Advances on all
kinds Of fat stock were large. ranging
from a dime to a quarter. but fat lambs
usually moved more readily than sheep
at figures that showed the most i'm
proyement. II was a fast, snappy ses-
sion In every respect and clearance of
a good-sized supply was made with very
little selling effort.
The run was estimated at over 5000
head, mostly fed ewes and fed lambs of
rived in the fleece, but some shorn stuff
Is running this week and two or three
shipments were included In the fresh
receipts. There were no Mexican lambs
on sale early and only a few, scattered
strings OF fat wethers. fat yearlings or
feeder stock.
Toppy fed western lambs reached the
even money, 500. while lin between
classes sold at the middle and low
spreads Of sl.25 range In values. Shorn
lambs, with dressing promise changed
hands at s5.I5u5-so, and attractive shorn
wethers landed at $50 Choice wooded
ewes brought as much as $500 and extra
good handy yesrling sheep were wanted
around S.s5Q60o.
Duf1nS the week the main feature OF
the trade has been a sharply higher
trend TO prices, due to an urgent. ex-
banding demand for product in the east.
Fat lambs are closing around 60 cents
higher. while sheep show net advances OF
fully Is cents over last weeks close.
Feeder business has been light and nomi-
