Can't Beat a Matched
 Egg In Chandler Climate


 Chandler is by no means backward in being up to date in all things and we now come forward with the fol- lowing story that will be sworn to by all eye-witnesses, and as it happened on the Berry Clemens ranch east of town, it must be true.
 Mrs. Clemens recently gathered about a dozen eggs that an old hen had been passing remarks about. She took them to the house and placed the eggs in the refrigerator. Several days later the family heard noise in and around the ice box and finally concluded that mice were fooling with the storage supplies.
 An investigation failed to reveal any such animal but it did produce four or five nice peeps from among the eggs, and out hoped some baby chicks. They were none the worse for wear in their chilly incubator and 1t did not take the Arizona sunshine long to put the usual pep into them. Chandler Arizonan.

A man giving his name as R. H Mckee, and claiming to hail from Winslow, committed suicide at Gallup Thursday of last week, by shooting himself through the heart. He had been in Gallup about two weeks, and spent most of his time in drinking and it was when recovering from one of these sprees that he committed the deed. Mckee gave out the informa- ton that he was employed in the storekeeping department of the Santa Fe, and inquiry there developes the fact that he was employed under the name of Chas. Newman.-Winslow

 Market Letter for the Past Week.
WEEKLY KANSAS CITY
 STOCK MARKET REPORT

Kansas City Stock Yorks, Sept. IS, 1916.-The attendance of the largest body of feeder buyers here last week seen this year, together with strong demand for killers, resulted in an ad- vance of 20 to 35 cents on cattle after Monday. The yards were we'll cleared, and the buying side was up maximum capacity today, when the receipts amounted to 36,000 head, be- sides 2,000 calves. The range country is we'll represented today, and sales were satisfactory tA sellers, steady to 15 cents lower than Friday, but a shade stronger than on Monday of last week.
 Buyers Want Feeder Cattle. A train load of Wheeler and Lav- ender steers from Placerville, Color ado, bred in Texas, sold to killers at $7.10, around 1925 lbs. average. Other mountain beef steers sold at $6.S0 and $6.90. Panhandle year lings sold up to S7.90, twos at $7.25 to $7.50, some commonish ones at lower prices; cows s5.25 to $6.25, canners $4.65. Best feed steers today brought $10.90, grass steers from $6.50 to s9.25.
 Feeder Buyers Want Sheep. Sheep receipts were 17,000 head here, and excessive at other points, 10000 head at six markets. Prices ruled 15 to 25 lower, with exceptions steady on ewes, fat ones selling at $7.25 and S7.35. Colorado alfalfa grazed lambs sold at $10.5O, and range lambs from western Colorado and Utah brought s10.25 to $10.4O; Arizona lambs to killers $9.75 to $9.s5, and to feeder buyers at the same price. Utah feeding lambs sold up to $10.15. Country demand is very heavy, as feeders are being advised that this promises to be a good year to feed, in spite of the high prices feeding lambs are costing. Breeding ewes sell readily at stronger prices, ST to $9.40, with young ewes around SS.50, and feeding ewes sell at s5.25 to S6.75, about 50 cents higher than a week ago.
 Hog Market Steady and Strong. Hog receipts were 11,500 head, the market steady to strong. Top hogs sold at s11.15 Saturday, highest price ever paid here, and the same top was reached today, bulk of sales $10.75 to $11.10. Receipts are running ahead of last year, but the government esti- mate of the stock hogs in the coun- try, showing a decrease from last year at this time, is bullish instru- ment. A big order buying trade con- tinues, and packers show as much competition as they think safe, and at the same time prevent a skyrocket market, for they need hogs. The sit uation looks very strong.

Shook Wilson's Hand,
Won't Wash Her Own

Since Thursday afternoon-more
than forty-eight hours-Miss Char
lotte Martin, secretary to County At
torney Magney, has not washed her
right hand, She was the only court
house lady privileged to shake the
hands of President and Mrs. Wilson
after their departure from the re-
viewing stand and that same hand is
jealousy guarded. Vivacious Miss
Martin, deyotee of the policy that if
one keeps good-natured until 10
o'clock in the morning the rest of the
day will take care of itself, left her
seat in the reviewing stand after the
parade had passed, confronted the
president, stuck out her hand and
gripped the presidential palm. She
was then turned over to Mrs. Wilson
and for few seconds basked in the
smiles of the first lady of the land.
Miss Martin charmingly boasts that
she has gripped the hands of three
presidents, Taft, Roosevelt, Wilson,
yet she has not yet reached the age
of majority.

British Ambassador Calls
On Acting Secretary Polk

Washington, Oct. british am
bassador Spring-Rice called at the
State department late today and al
though he declined to discuss his visit,
it was believed he protested against
entrance into an American port of the
German submarine U-53.
The ambassador was understood to
have taken the position that the U-S3,
VIZ ship, was not entitled to any
prh..e-s and should not be allowed
to anchor in neutral port.
Acting Secretary Polk of the State
department said after the conference
that the British ambassador had calf
ed on another ...~,,e, and only cas-
ually referred to the submarine.
Newport, R. l., Oct. captain
Rose s.e.,- .ate today that the U-53
would put to sea tonight. Repairs
were not required, he said, and the
vessel was well provisioned. Being
under war orders he could not indi-
cate his next port.
