The ring courage Of either man
scarcely can be doubted Carpenters
has been proved in long series Of
bouts in which he fought his way to
success from bantamweight to the
topmost heavyweight ranks in Eu-
rope. The bouts in which this young
Frenchman met Frank Klaus, Billy

der Wells, taking as well as giving

do the war experiences through which
he went.
Dempsey's courage in a bout of
any length never has been thorough

punching power has made the aver
age length OF his bouts two or three
rounds. In the match with Bren-
nan, there never was any doubt az
to his superiority, although it went
along in slow fashion until the 18th
round. However, Dempsey went
against tremendous physical odds

24,6G0 cattle, $3.50 hogs, and 14,100
sheep a year ago.
Beet Cattle.
Best grades of killing steers were
10 to Is cents higher, butcher cattle
strong to % cents higher, and veal
calves up to so cents. Ordinary to
plain steers moved mare freely at
strong prices, and medium steers
were strong to 10 cents higher. The
general market showed a greater i'm
provement than price advances indi-
Gated. The quicker movement over
the scales, caused by larger killer
demand together with higher prices
for beef, were factors in the improv-
Grade. The bulk of the steers were
to $7.25. Fed steers sold up TO
$10.25. There was considerable
shipping demand for butcher cattle.
Veal calves sold up to $500.
Stockers and Feeders.
Stockers were in moderate supply
at strong prices. Feeders sold read
lily, with good classes higher. The
belief that prices are at the low point
is improving demand.
Hogs.>
Hog prices were up Is to rs cents
mostly 25 cents, and most of the hogs
sold at $500 up. The top price was
$3.50. Some 270 pound hogs sold up
to 500 and 200 pound grades brot
the top at $3.50. Extreme heavy
hogs sold at $3.50 to $S.75. Re-
ceipts were light and will probably
continue so far the next four weeks.
Pigs were 25 cents higher, top $3.50.
Sheep and Lambs.
Lambs were 25 to SO cents lower
and sheep 25 cents lower. Western
lambs sold at $3.50 to $3.50, native
lambs $500 to $3.50. Ewes sold
mostly at $3.50 to $500, and feed
ing lambs $500 to $500. Most of
the Offering were good western
lambs.
Horses and Mules.
Demand for horses and mules
showed a moderate improvement,
though prices were lot quotably
higher. Better quality in offerings
would stimulate trading.
