Hutton Plays,

Departing from the euatemary top-

ies for a memorial eerviee address, the Rev, fleeU Funk Hershey of Au- ! pola, Ind acting paster of the First Presbyterian church, thts eity, spoke on "effieieuey" at the annual memorial nervtee f lUenmai.d. Ledge of Elks, at the Klka' home Sunday afternoon, and hia pemarka were thoroughly appreciated, by ft large number of lodge members and. their families who filled the ledge hall, fhe tservieea were eiit?6mely simple, hut impressive, After Ul fermal opening of the "Ledge ei Barrow" by Exalted. Ruler Oath f Freeman, the beautiful otle waa sung, then Chaplain John C, I.ayer led in prayer, "Ave Maria," waa rendered by Miss Carolyn Hutton, violin, aooempanied by Miss Mildn 1 St-halk, A most btautirul eutegy of the departed members of the ledge, including Isaac N, Drury and George W. Ma&hmeyer, who died during this year, was delivered by H. Lamar Monarch. Following thia Mrs. Fred J. Bartel sang "Abide With Me." Sing Memeriai Ode. At the conclusion of the Rev. Mr. llershey'a address, Mfs. Bartel and Miss Hutten sang "The Day Is Knded," and the Berviees were concluded by the ledge members singing a memorial ode, the words and musie by one of the members, Lee H. Kusbaura, which he bad dedicated tu the lodge. The Rev. Mr-; Hershey spoke of the necessity of higher efficiency among publin servants and among individuals. He referred to the indictments recently returned against a number of state officials, including the secretary of state and the lieutenant governor, for the unlawful conduct of legislative matters. He asserted that the efficiency of our public officers compared unfavorably with those of other countries, but, he added, that in his opinion the standard was being constantly raised, and that he, personally, was not. the least discouraged with the outlook for the future betterment of our government. "There is aiso a great room for the improvement of individual efficiency," the Rev. Mr. Hershey declared. "I urge more application, industry and energy, especially on the part of our young men." Men Lack Efficiency. He said he recently asked a Richmond employer what the average percent of efficiency there was among the workers of this city, and was promptly told about 65 per cent. This illustration lie gave to show bow much room for the of efficiency in private, life there is in Richmond. Speaking of charity the Rev. Mr. Hershep declared that most charitabe activities were conducted on the wrong basis. Work was the only real charity, ha aFserted, and that was the kind of -tiarity nine men out of ten wanted. "That charity which fives and requires nothing in return is all wroug. It tends lo degenerate manhood," he said. fciueii charity makes its recipient indolent, and a charge noon the community in which he- lives. Our municipalities are under obligation to provide as much work for their citizens as possible, but the work of such should be of a permanent character so the community will receive lull value for its rooncv."

Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst, leader of the militant suffragettes,

is today using her organization to appeal in the name of the women to the vouncr men of Great Britain for army recruits.

"We women are the weaker sex," she said recently to her fol

lowers. "We have been told that our hands are full of our domes

tic concerns and maternal duties. In times of peace we have a good deal to say on that, but in times qf war we are compelled to take

men at their word.

"Men sav to us. 'Leave fighting to us. It does not become

women to fight.' Well, this is a testing time for men and women

We take you gentlemen at your word. We say it is the duty of mpn to do their best to redeem their pledges to women. We have

not been allowed to prepare ourselves for self-defense because we

are women."

Anticipating the lifting of the foot and mouth quarantine, the trade at the Glen Miller stock yards resumed normal proportions Saturday, and the trading waa brisk. Shipments far the week were 330 hogs with tops at 6 eeats; 39 eattle at 6V2 cents, and 10 calves at 18.00. Six cents was offered for lambs but

none was delivered, Walter Bulla delivered 108 hog on Thursday that averaged 238 pounds and topped the market at 6 cents. 1 Charles Savage and A. Lamdy of Center town&hfo brought in 87 hog, averaging 168 pouada. that sold for

$5.60 per hundred J. F.. Brattoa 4t Boston tow-ttshtpt topped the market eariter ts the week with 25 hogs at U. S. Lrfts twtfearyoy With the lifting ef the embargo qb

the shipment of ttv atoek. the yards

will again resume active buytog, and will be able to handle all live stock

delivered at the same marginal offering as heretofore.

Jerome Shurley. manager of the

yards, said: I expect this reaction of trade to bring out large numbers of hogs and I could buy a thousand head

this morning by telephone at 7 cents, but the prospects do not Justify ft. The Pittsburg market opened this morning and offered 7 cents for best hogs and by tomorrow it will take

half the state of Pennsylvania to yard

all the hogs sent to that market. This

will cause a break in prices and we

are advising farmers to hold their

hogs wherever possible, until the market becomes settled,"

The following farmers had stock on the market Saturday; William Hoover, Nate Hunt, James Thompson, Earl Smoker, Harry Shute, George R, Thorpe, Frank Jay, Morton Btoops, Thomas Bllerraan, B, Techaem, Carl Morris, Clarence Palmer, A, A.

BY A. D. COBB. The ban on the Interstate shipment of live stock from Indiana was lifted today, and for the first time in two months farmers will be able to ship out their catttle and hogs with some degree of assurance that they will find a ready market, at prices that will have some degree of stability. Wayne county and all other counties In the state that have not had cases of

the foot and mouth disease during ' the present outbreak, were released from the quarantine restrictions, by orders racHtoed today from the Department of Agriculture. Dr, d. Q. Wagoner, federal veterinary inspector,, received orders today to allow tha Hhipmjemt of- all alasHB of

livestock- to any potiht, but only fori Immediate slaughter. Animal's can be shipped into the county for any pur-'

pose.. The order also makes tt. per-

m1.ssa.hfe to mate itrsterstate shipments of straw,, nay, hidra and grain to and from the state, in all counties that, are not affected by the disease.. Gives Great Rtilef.

This will bring fmmmflate relief to the farmers living on the state fine, t who have suffered great losses by hav-j fog stock on one side of- the Ene, and feed stuff on the other, the quruntine '

making it impossible to get feed to the ,

animals. With the opening of shipments of

Btock to the East, there will no doubt j

be a great movement of hogs through-1 out the county. The Indianapolis j market has been the only available ' shipping point from this county for nearly two months, and the price has ! been forced so low there, that farmers could not afford to ship their hogs. The opening of other markets has already strengthened the prices, and it is expected that shipments of the following few weeks will tax the capacity of local shipping points. The sudden opening of the markets has caused a feeling of uneasiness on the part of shipping firms and buyers, who say they cannot foretell the extent of the shipments, and who also fear that the great shipments of the next few days will conjest the eastern markets, and break the price. Resume Shipments. The Glen Miller Stock Yards has been flooded with inquiries from farmers, who learning of the opening of trade, are anxious to sell their fat

BY LEASED WIRE. CHICAGO, Dec. 7. An encouraging statement was Issued today by John J. Ferguson, secretary of the United States Live Stock Sanitary association to stock raisers and dealers relative to the abatement of the foot and mouth disease among cattle. Mr. Ferguson says : "The government officials are daily

relaxing the severity of restrictive or- j dera and extending greater privileges to shippers of live stock. There have , been no new outbreaks of the disease for several days.
