RICHMOND MARKETS

The high price of hogs took a tumble yesterday and according to the statements of a .stock dealer, they will not reach the seven cent mark again this year, or at least during the warm weather. All warm climatic conditions tend to lower the price of pork loins, and in fact all manner of pork on the local butcher market. The butchers who have to buy their meats from the abattoirs will not pay prices coinciding with the wholesale quotaJons. As the result, the abattoir companies have to reduce their wholesale quotations. that they may in any. way realize on the handling of hogs. The butchering season is almost at a close with the larger butchering establishments which also gives added stimulus to the decline. Those farmers who have bcn holding their hogs back for even higher prices will no doubt be chagrinned to find that their j dreams of higher prices are merely dreams. The grocery, wagon ami other mar kets remained normal yesterday, with but little change being noted. THE LOCAU MARKETS. (The prices quoted below are those paid by J. M. Eggemeyer.

The average level of the opening prices of stocks was not materially changed from the closing on Saturday, only a few issues moved widely and transactions were small. Fractional additions to the opening advances were made before the list began to sag under the weight of the selling of the copper stocks. Anaconda rebounded after its initial los3, but again relapsed over 4 points. Am algamated also fell back below Sat urday's closing.

This has been such a beautiful, teaut!ful day. And I am so happy tonight. This morning 1 woke when the man in the moon Was stealing away out of sight. A-making suchaces and looking so pale. So terribly washed out and white. That I just had to laugh at his poor faded grin, Though he seemed in a pitiful plight. For I felt very sure when he d had a day's rest He'd appear Quite as saucy and bright. When breakfast was over I went ror a walk Way off to the end of the world. I couldn't fee one single bit of our house Cept the smoke fairies twisted and curled And flying so high that I knew 'twould be fine. For that is a sure sign, they say. If the smoke goes straight up to tho top f the sky No storm clouds will dare come to stay. The earth smelled so good that it really Just seemed That the flowers, still hid underground. Were sending up messages perfumed and rweet To say that they soon could be found. I did truly see quite a bit of green gTass, And I heard such a beautiful sound. Do you think - 'twas a robin? I didn't tjuite know Whether they could be coming around. I went hunting for pebbles I play they are gold nd rubles and etneralds and pearls. And I play I'm a fairy with oceans of wealth T shower on poor little girls. These poor little girls are just thin stumps of trees. With new yellow shavings for curls. It's rice playing fairy and making folks glad. Some time, when I'm grown up, I'll be A real, truly fairy with real, truly gold I guess I am sleepy, dear me! And I haven't thought over one-half of the thtngs That rm glad about now. let me seeI n falling and falling and falling to 8lep, And the moon man Just peeked through the tree. Washington Star. ENGLISH ETCHINGS. The other day a London food inspect or took a sample of oleomargarine from a grocer's shop and on examining it found it to be pure butter. English people cat on the average thirteen pmruds of butter a head year ly, says the Stevard"s Bulletin. This is more than js eateu per capita in any other r.ation. A motor car driver in London the other day charged and scattered like chaff a whole troop of the life guards. but paid $S next day in the police court far Lda victory. Because the lock of a Methodist church in Gaziemcre, England, wouldn't work it was taken off. The locksmith found ls. "Mtil. iu it. some pious peo ple having mistaken It for a contribution box. .:

In Belgium, as In other European countries, the sale of horseflesh Is be coming a recognized branch of the butchering business, according to Con sul McXally of Liege. Scattered through Liege are many shops selKn." horse meat exclusively, a horse bead at tached to the front of the shop or n sign indicating the business within While it is not forbidden for a moat market to handla J'otb beef and horsr meat, it is quite unusual to do so, deal ers carrying their separate lines. When the meat is dressed and exposed for sale the only noticeable difference i,in the color, which is of a deeper rcJ and has a coarser fiber than the beef. Those accustomed to eating horseflesh are loud iu its praise and declare it to be as palatable as beef and that many persons eat horseflesh under the impression that they are eating beef. There is no doubt that horseflesh is growing Iu favor. It sells for about half the price of beef or mutton. The dealers In horse meat are mosf active In proclaiming the prime qualitj of their article, and a campaign of per suasion is now on. They contend tha? the horse in ancient times was held ir. high esteem: that the eating of horse flesh was common before the eighth century and that in China the horse has been eaten for COO years. The first European people openly practicing hippophagy were those of Denmark in 1807, when Napoleon invaded that country. The Germans also attribute that practice in their country to the same person during the wars of 1815. at which time the food supply was very low. The first hippophagic slaughter house was created In Prussia in 1847. also a year of great famine. In Belgium the eating of horseflesh dates back to 1870, from which time it has been Increasing steadily. n Liege many colts are slaughtered for sale as well as young horses. The animal undergoes the same rigid inspec tion given to beef, mutton or pork. The number of horses and colts slaughter ed for Liege in 1904 was 1.2S7, and It is estimated at 2,000 head for 1905 The choice cuts of horse meat sell for about 20 cents a pound, while the beef commands about 35 cents.

Humor and Philosophy By DUNCAN M. SMITH

PERT PARAGRAPHS. No up to date youngster appears to be much troubled with illusions concerning his elders. Be good and you will be happy in a way. Being poor and respectable Is the acme of happiness in story books, probably because it is so very difficult to be respectable and poor. Inches have wings when their owner takes a flier in wheat. Some people do their duty and others get no farther than their friends. Don't be a piker, readv overdone. The thing Is alIt is always easy to find a tough proposition. Sitae men are treatises, some catalogues and some Ilojie's games. A woman may have bewitching eyes and yet be able to cook a good dinner, but she doesn't have to. The best way to pay attention to what people think of you Is to pay your debts. Castles In the Flame. I sit beside the open grate And watch the changing, fitful glow; I see the bright flames leap aloft And shadows on the background throw. Before my eyes Strange forms arise A castle fair in sunny Spain, A speciil. private railway train And other things On fancy's wins Athwart my vision lightly float That seem to cheer my very soul. And then I look again and see My large and monthly bill for coaL The shadows seem to weave a spell. And as with dreamy eyes I gaze I seem to see before me rise The ghosts of long forgotten dayau A boy once more, . I walk the shore Or In the ancient forest stray. With others of my kind at play Beneath the trees We lie at ease. Forgetful of the later cares. Lost in some hay boyhood joTorr. And then I look again and see My money going up in smoke. And that's about the way it goes. When we are wrapped in quiet mirth. Enjoying moments as they pass. The coal bill calls us down to earth. Breaks up our dream And makes us scheme And all our mental efforts bring On ways and means to pay the thing. Tamed rt Last. Alas, the age of romance lives only fa the five cent novels that the boys read out behind the wood shed, first having made sure that the big stick is not looking. An Arizona cowboy drifted Into a Broadway saloon and, after looking at the bright lights, began shooting them up to show how things were done In more advanced communities.

As soon as they could get to the telephone they called for the police. Two officers responded and threw the bad man Into a pretty, blue wagon and took him for a buggy ride. This story proves either that New York isn't Arizona or else that the cowboy came from east of Pittsburg, for the kind of cowboys that we read about do not allow themselves to be arrested by anything less than a section of the regular army.
