improved during the last twenty years.
Until the sheepmen OF the west be-
came recognized as specialists in NUT
ton production. treacherous fiuctua-
tions were matters of almost daily
occurrence. There are records OF de-
clines OF fifty cents per hundredweight
In prices within an hour. The large
western shipper was obliged to fore
stall such ruinous conditions. This
was done by establishing feeding sta.
uons on the railway lines tributary to
Chicago from the west Most OF these
are owned and controlled by the rail
road companies. The large shipper
consigns his sheep to some one OF
the advice OF his commission firm az
to the number OF sheep and the time
he shall send them to market
shipment OF say twenty thousand
sheep Is thus distributed over a period
of week or ten days instead OF all
being dumped on the market on the
same day. Since from sixty-five to
seventy-five per cent. OF the sheep
reaching Chicago market are sent first
to the feeding stations. 1t can readily
be seen how much they aid in prevent
Ing market Cutting. The record run
of sheep on the Chicago market for
one day is about $4,000 and run OF
10000 is considered very heavy. but
we're 1t not for the feeding stations II
Is claimed that there would frequently
be days when the run would be nearer
100. 900 head.

a pretty little affair yesterday af-

ed an art Exhibit. The guests

pleasurable.
The genial personality of the
hostess and her four daughters
could not fail to make the occa-
sion a happy one.
Delicious refreshments of fruit
punch, candies, cake and ice
cream, were served and dainty
little favors of Easter baskets
were distributed. The guests

Zulu nation OF South Africa. is dead.
He was son of Cetewayo, the king
who led the Zulu nation against the
British troops in the war of 1879
Cetewayo was eventually defeated
after he had inflicted a crushing blow
on the British army at the battle Of
lsandhlwana. when practically the en-
tire Twenty-fourth infantry regiment
was massacred. 1t was during this
war that the French prince imperial.
Louis Napoleon. was killed while out
accommodating with the British troops.
Dinizulu did not become king when
his father died. but was proclaimed
later by the Beers and led two or three
rebellions against the British power.
On one occasion when captured he was
exiled to the island of St Helena.
When permitted to return to his native
land he took part In another rebellion.
after which he Was tried and sem
fenced to four years Imprisonment.
He was given his liberty and a pen
