Wednesdays Brighton Market

Stock Yards, Oct. 3.-The demand for
beef cattle fell off and prices averaged
lower than yesterday on all grades Of
ferings were quite heavy. Veal calves
were steady at the previous level. Hogs
also were unchanged. with very few
offered. The market for mich cows
was slow. AS long as milk raisers are
uncertain regarding the prices they
will receive they will not be anxious
to purchase more cows. as they claim
there is little or no profit in the bust
ness now. Prices hold up fairly well
as the raisers cannot afford to sell at
any lower figures.

The first to arrive was the contingent
from Skowhegan. which came down on
the morning train from that place.
They occupied a car at the rear of
the train and were met At the station
here by many friends and relatives,
who had an opportunity to see them
for about Is minutes while the train
waited.
The morning train from Bangor
brought the Bangor and Belfast con-
tingents and they were in two cars
at the rear of that train, and like the
Skowhegan goys, they had some
friends on hand to see them. The
Skowhegan contingent was kept on the
back road train as far as Portland.
where they were all to be transferred
to one train. The afternoon express
from the east brought in two car
loads Of the boys from Eastport and
sections in Washington county and a
second section Of the same train run
ming IS minutes behind il brought in
the Aroostook contingent.
All of them seemed happy and ready
for the work in hand. In converse ton
with number of them they express
ed their Willingness to go. some say
ing they should have volunteered il
the draft law had not passed When
it did they thought that they would
wait until the call came to them and
then they would be ready to go. Prac-
tical1y every one said that they hoped
that they would have chance t.
show their mettle against the Germans
and were wishing for chance to go
over the top"

Oak Street Work.

Work was started Wednesday filling
in the Oak street section of the sewer
which is to connect with the Hayden
Brook sewer at the juncture OF OAK
and Drummond avenue. Contractor
Cyr found this an exceptionally hard
piece of work. The sewer here had to
be dug through sand and it was $,
loose that exceptionally careful sheet
ing had to be done and even then it
was difficult to keep the sand from cav
ing in. Mr., Cyr also experienced more
or less trouble in satisfying the people
along the street as the dirt taken out
had to be piled practically on their
doorsteps and this made it bad for
them and bad for him. He has kept
out a good sized pile of the sand
which he is to saved to show the quail
ity and the brand of stuff he had to dig
through.

Colby May Not Play Saturday

There was a fair sized squad out
for the Colby football practice on
Wednesday afternoon and good prog
ress was made by the boys who are
on hand. The idea of playing tn game
with Fort Mckinley OH Sa,niuay has
about been given up as it does not
seem probable that enough men will
he on hand so that respectable elev-
en- can be secured and Manager Erwin
does not care to 60 to Portland with
a team that will not make q good
showing. More men are expected ev-
cry day and there is prospect that
the game may yet be played. The
