Kansas and Missouri grass steers,
weighing HOO to 1880 lbs, sold at
81 rs to So. 60. Cows and heifers
found a good outlet at close to steady
prices, particularly medium and COM
mon cows. A hurry order for war
canned beef was placed with Armour
last week, which helps the market
on everything that can be used to
fill it. A good many country buyers
are here today, and stockers and
feeders are selling steady. Fleshy
feeders are worth STE to $S.25, and
stock steers largely $3.50 to 81. SO.
Quarantine arrivals are only 81 cars
to-day, and sales in that division do not
show as much decline as in the native
division, steady to 10 lower describing
the market there. Top in that divis-
ion is 81 20, although good Oklahoma
wintered steers are quotable up to
81. So. Common light steers sell
downwards to $5. SO, and good quaran-
tine cows at SIS. so to Sc. 90. Killers
have small stocks of meat on hand,
and the general situation favors the
selling side, and the decline today is
due to a set of conditions effective
only for the day.

CATTLE MARKET.

Kansas City Stock Yards, Aug. II,
1914-Cattle of all kinds were in good
demand last week, and the general
market advanced Is to 80 cents. The
supply was $4,000 head smaller than
same weeks supply last year. The
run today is $4,000 head, largest Mon
day run this season. Steer buyers
demand 10 to Is lower prices today,
and after considerable haggling sales
men conceded that amount on medium
steers In the native Lewiston, prime
steers selling steady to 10 lower,
with top Of $10.15. Middle class

DIES IN GREAT AGONY FROM
BITE OF RATTLE SNAKE.
A Benson dispatch saws:

A Benson Q1SpaCcn says:
That all fortune tellers and seers
are not successful as snake charm
ers was demonstrated Saturday by
an unknown man who died from the
wounds received from the fangs of his
rattle snake. He was tempting, as
near as can be learned, to teach the
snake to coil and uncoil at his bid
ding, and was about to remove the
poison sack from his jaws when
the accident occurred.
The man, whose name, whose
past, whose family and whose rela-
tives are unknown, had been in this
city some five or six days. During
his stay he had been acting as
seer and soothe sayer, telling fortunes
for his living. He was apparently
sane.
Yesterday he went down the E. P.
& s. w. railroad tracks some two
miles, where he discovered a rattle
snake, captured the reptile and was
preparing to make Of it, one of the
factors of his business when it struck
him several times. He started fof
Benson at top speed and arrived in
the city in time to tell people he had
been bitten by the snake before he
expired. However, he died before DR..
j. w. Morrison, who was immedi-
ately called, reached him.

with either court sitting on his case.
The sentence was $3.50 fine and SO
days in prison. The petition accord
ing to John ]. Birdno, an "exparti-
ate" Grahamite, and man in close
touch with county matters, was sign

WOMEN HAVE RIGHT
TO PUBLIC OFFICE
So Holds J. L. Morrison, Basing His
Opinion on Suffrage Amendment.

Notwithstanding the opinions of at
torneys o. T. Richey and Benton Dick
that it would be unconstitutional for
a woman to hold an office in the exc
cutive department of the state, the
Republicans are proceeding with the
nomination of Mrs. Rose Kibbey
Krebs for superintendent of public
instruction.
According to Joseph E. Morrison, G.
o. P. candidate for attorney general,
the equal suffrage amendment to the
constitution fully covers sections one
and two of article five on which the
Richey-Dick opinion is based.
He quotes a portion of the suffrage
amendment as follows:
1.-THE right of citizens of the Unit
ed States to vote and hold office shall
not be denied or abridged by the
state or by any political division or
municipality thereof on account OF
sex and the right to register, to vote
and to hold office under any law now
in effect or which may hereafter be
enacted is extended to and conferred
on males and females alike.

Big Mountain Fires.

The rain last Sunday night put an end
10 the mountain fires that had swept over
so much territory in Jefferson, Washing
ton and Loudoun counties. The fires in
neighborhood OF Pen-Mar did much dam
age and it was only by heroic efforts
that the hotels and cottages there were
saved. Near Keedysville the negro COL
ony OF dozen houses known as Fishers
vile was saved by the colored folks, who
fought like fiends TO save their homes,
only one house being destroyed. The
fires were very fierce in the Harper's
Ferry neighborhood, both on MARYLAND
Heights and the .oudoun mountains.
The mountain across the Shenandoah
river from the town was mass OF fldmes,
presenting spectacular sight. 1t is said
that the fires have made someof the roads
leading TO Harper's Ferry more or less
dangerous, as the intense heat loosened
some of the huge boulders along the
mountain side and many have been roll
ing down. One man, going from Har-
per's Ferry several days ago heard a
rumbling noise, and looking above him
saw large rock, about the size OF an
apple barrel coming down the side OF the
mountain. He was almost in the direct
path OF the stone, when he whipped up
his horse and escaped, being struck in
the center of the wagon. The huge stone
struck the rear part of the wagon and de-
molished it, but the driver escaped with
out injury, as did his horse. 1t is said
warnings were posted near the danger
places, warning travellers OF this part Of
the road.
