Los Angeles Produce Market.

Los Angeles, April 1.-There was
a reaction in the price of eggs yes
terday on the Los Angeles produce
exchange, the quotation that was es-
tablished by the final sale being 21c
a dozen-the same rate that prevailed
at the end of last week. There were
several sales yesterday, it taking many
transactions to finally determine the
quotation for the day. Butter sold
at 23c pound, the same price that
has been posted for over a week.
Strawberries were much easier yes
terday, many boxes being sold for as
low as &c a box. The best grade
brought 7c in the early part of the
morning. Dealers say that with warm
weather, after the rains, there will
be an abundant supply of this fruit
at cheap prices.
There are now three varieties of
white onions on the market and, for
the first time in months, the supply
viii be equal to the demand shortly.
This win come with the arrival of
the Texas crop. Bermudas on the
local market brought 1925 to $3.50
yesterday, Crystal Wax 1925 and Sill
ver Skins So. New potatoes were 4
little more plentiful and sold for from
SIZE to &c pound, meeting a good
demand. Beans and peas are fairly
plentiful. The supply of rhubarb was
small .i,ring the day, but arrivals
from the north in the afternoon
promise enough to meet the demand
now.
Receipts of produce in Los Angeles
yesterday were: Eggs, 629 cases; but
ter, 1880 pounds; cheese, 2,725
pounds; potatoes, 2,809 sacks; sweets,
141 sacks; apples, 1866 boxes.
The following exchange quotations
on butter and eggs are taken from
the final daily sales on the Los An
geles produce exchange. The whole
sale price on creamery extra butter
is 4c above the exchange rate. The
egg prices quoted below, with the ex-
ception of the exchange rate, are the
wholesale prices.

Yesterdays Cotton Market.

New York, March 31.-After open
ing strong and advancing about l.,
points from last nights prices, our
market had sharp reaction and
closed unchanged to 4 points net low
er on old crop options and l to 2
up on new. Foreign advice was of
more optimistic tenor regarding the
situation in Manchester, and under
heavy buying for trade account shorts
were badly frightened and ran to
cover. When trading in March op-
tions, which maintained its premium
ard went out at 80 points over May
ceased, offerings became freer. Wall
street and commission houses, togeth-
er with local traders, were the heav-
lest sellers. Unfavorable weather re-
ports mainly from east Texas were
received again today. New crop op-
tions ruled steady and in fair de-
mand. Sentiment is of more reac-
tionary temper tonight on the idea
that shorts have about covered and
a fair sized long interest has accumu
lated.
Following are the closing quotations
today: January, 11.47@48; February,
11.63@72; May, 12.42@43; June, 1928

TO MARK SITE WHERE
WASHINGTON WAS VICTOR
Omitted Press Day Service)

Trenton, N. j., March 31-Twelve
obelisks of granite will mark the
route of Washington's movement
around the British left at Trenton
and thence to Princeton, one of the
Revolutions most important strate-.
gies. The Sons of the Revolution have
let contracts for the erection of the
markers which will be eight feet tall
and set with the bronze legend 'Route
of Washington's march by night from
Trenton to Princeton and Victory, Jan
uary 3, 1777. Erected 1914"
1t is history that Lord CORVALLIS
retired on this memorable night and
said "we'll catch the old fox in the
morning" However, in the morning
Washington was at the rear of Corn
wallis, ready to meet the British rein
forcements coming from New Bruns-
wick. This force was thrown into
confusion and fled. Washington's little
force was too exhausted to pursue the
advantage and it retired to Morris
town and went into winter quarters.
The obelisks will be placed in position
late in April or in early May. Some
of them will stand in open fields while
others will stand on the side of roads
still in use. Eventually the Sons of
the Revolution will put up obelisks
all the way to Morristown.

The following by press agent, un-
endorsed:
"The Vitagraph Moving Picture
Company develops nearly one million
feet of film weekly in their Brooklyn
studio. After the developer has be-
come useless for developing purposes,
it is carefully saved and placed in a
huge tank. The reason for this is that
the solution frees a certain amount Of
the silver used in making films. When
enough of the silver has collected in
the form of sediment at the bottom OF
the tank, it is sold for considerable
amount Some one possessing a
knowledge of these conditions at the
Vitagraph studio, succeeded in re-
leasing the water during the recent
blizzard, thus allowing the sedimenG
to freeze in cakes, which they then
cut into blocks and stole from the
studio. 1t is not known just about
what amount they were able to re-
lease. but it must be considerable, con-
sidering that they carried off more
than 100 pounds of the sediment
which contains large per cent of sill

BROKEN jaw
REPAIRED ON his HOCSHIP".

Mr.. B. B. Myers, the popular rep
resentative for the Voolfolk Grocery
Co, while travelling through the coun-
try in his automobile, accidentally ran
over hog belonging to Mr.. S. R.
Foley, who lives near Hackley.
Thinking the hog was fatally injured,
Mr.. Myers very graciously offered to
reimburse the owner, who declined to
accept anything, altho it was seen that
the lower jaw OF his hogship was Sc
badly broken, that it hung in a perpen-
dicular position. Not to be deferred
by such seemingly fatal injury, MIR.
Foley announced that the jaw could be
set and the animal restored to its nat.

gentle the hog was easily caught and
the injured jaw was set in position and
bound firmly, by cotton bandages to the
upper jaw. How was the hog to eat
was the next question, but undaunteG
in his efforts to save that hog, he was

weeks, then the bandages were remov

JUDGE GRANT E. LILLY
Has Case Affirmed In Court Of Appeals

The Court of Appeals has affirmed
the judgment of the Madison circuit
court in the case of the Richmond Lum-
bes Co. against Butler. 1t will be re
membered that this case was tried at
the October term, 1913. On account of
the absence of Judge ]. M. Benton,
Mr.. Grant E. Lilly was agreed on by
the parties to act as Special Judge.
The case arose out of the attachment
of an automobile by the Lumber Com
pany, alleging that it belonged to Cab
rem, Dodge and Maltby. Mrs. Butler
claimed the machine and filed suit
against the company for wrongful at
tachment. The case was fought with
unusual energy by both sides, but Mis-.
Butler won and the jury awarded her a
judgment for $40 damages. The COM
pany appealed and lost again.
Judge Lilly was sustained in his rul-
ings in every particular.

JUDGE CHARLES A. HARDIN
(Apdoreon Nausl
Henderson News

1t is to be regretted that the failure
to select a. "B" or &c" Master
Commissioner of the Lincoln Circuit
Court should cause Judge Charles A.
Hardin, of Mercer, in an indirect way,
to have opposition for reelection as
circuit judge in the 18th judicial dis
trict, because he appointed I'D" to the
position. Boys, your man can't turn
the trick. 1t will be just like taking
candy from a child" for Hardin to de-
feat him. And he ought to do So.
Why? Because he has made that dis
trict one of the best circuit judges it
ever had, and he is entitled to an en-
dorsement of his services as such at
the hands of generous and patriotic
people. Knowing him as we do, and
valuing his good friendship for US, We
cannot refrain from saying word in
his favor. The Editor fifteen years
ago stood in front of the old court
house building in Harrodsburg and
heard this splendid and gallant Demo-
crat, Charley Hardin, appeal to his
kindred, friends and neighbors to stand
by the dauntless and fearless leader,
William Goebel, for Governor, after he
had received the Democratic nomina-
ton from his kInsman, Parker Watkins
Hardin, when the state was in chaos
over the famous Emusic Hail. conven-
ton nomination. We shall never for
set that splendid plea made by him in
behslf of Goebel. 1t endeared
his Democracy to US. Charley Hardin
is by nature and training a fit
man for Judge; possessed of an even
temperament, an excellent Interpreter
of the spirit and letter of the law; rich
and poor, white and black, high and
low, are weighed in the Scales of
Justice, and they balance with Square
Deal to all mankind. From an out
sider's viewpoint, we can only say to
the people of that splendid district,
honor again with your suffrage the man
who took up the work left undone when
Gods tender finger called that brave,
courageous, able eloquent, splendid
jurist, the late Judge Micah Chrisman
Saufey, to sit as a member of the
