to the Holman Liver Pad company:
Gentlemen—1 left here in October, 1S78. on the

is a complete antidote to all kinds of
BLOOD POffi AND SKIN 1HL
Swift's Specific has cured me of Scrofula,
Which is hereditary in my family. I have suffered
with it for many years, and have tried a great
many physicians and all sorts of treatment, but to
no purpose: and when I began to take Swift's
Specific I was in a horrible condition; but. thanks
to this great remedy 1 am rid of the? disease.
There is no doubt that it is the greatest medicine
in existence, and I hope any who doubt will write

After suffering twenty-five years with a painful
Dry Tetter, and trying many physicians. I was at
last relieved by the use of Swift's Specific, and I
Cheerfully commend it to all similarly afflicted.

Cotton Compress,
MANUFACTURED ONLY BY
THE FySEY&iOfiES COMPANY
■Wilmington, Delaware.
Having, after long and careful study and great
expense, succeeded in perfecting the above re-
ferred to machine, we offer it now to the public as
tlie most powerful, safe and expeditious compress
in use.
Wholly of metal, reducing it* risk of destruction
muc h in case of lire, and working with scarcely any
friction, its movements are smooth and noiseless;
and as tlie whole power is directly applied to the
bale without intervention of levers, cox gearing or
other devices common to other forms of com-
presses. its work is performed at less cost of fuel
per bale than any press in use.
When used in combination with Riesel's Bale
Ejector, which discharges the pressed bale as soon
as the press opens, thereby relieving the men from
that labor. 100 bales per hour can be compressed
and tied.
The capacity of the press is iiOOO tons, and this is
applied to each bale pressed.
These presses are built in the very best manner,
and with all the care that skill and experience can
command, and are guaranteed in all their details.

General X&arket Quiet — Markets
Abroad —- ISpot Cotton Quiet but
Steady — Futures Opened Lower,
but Closed Steady.
News Office, September 19.—In the gen-
eral market a few parties reported a slight im-
provement over yesterday in business, but trade
was still very quiet in about all lines. Quotations
for bacon sides are reduded to 7J4@7J.6c for long:
clear, and 73$<^Sc for short clear. Outside figures
forlsrd are reduced ^c. In other articles no
change was made in quotations.
At Kansas City bacon was weak. Butter was
firm for choice, but weak for the poorer grades.
Flour was firm and active. Wheat ruled higher,
but with limited trading. Corn was strong, but
with little movement. Oats were dull, and apples
quiet. Cattle showed a better feeling, especially for
Texans, which were quoted at $3 10@4 20.
At St. Louis, the forenoon session of the ex-
change was marked by great weakness, and the
offerings were beavily in excess of the demand.
Reported declines in wheat at Liverpool
aided in depressing the market. Rumors
that London was buying at New York and Chicago,
and the usual reports of additional frosts in Iowa
failed to call forth a response in the shape of an
advance at St. Louis, though they had their effect
at Chicago. Denial of the rumors later in the day
caused a weaker feeline-. and at 1 o'clock wheat and
corn were lc below the highest figures of the day.
Receipts of hogs were large and prices lower. Pro-
visions were active. Bacon quotations were un-
changed.
At Chicago the markets opened weaker, but later
; in the day there was an improvement in the de-
i raand, aud prices advanced. Near the close of the
i session wheat was weak, owing to unfavorable for-
i eign advices. Corn was steady till the close, though
! there was less done on speculative account than
j earlier in the day. Provisions generally were quiet
j and dull, though pork showed on improvement of
j about 30c per barrel. The cattle market was dull.
| Texans averaging 907 pounds sold at $3 87t£. Tex-
j an cows at $3 65, and Colorado Texans, averaging
j 982 pounds, at $4 50.

and New York. On the second call the market was
barely steady at about the lowest figures
of the day, but after the second call a better feel-
ing set in. as markets abroad had reacted and ad-
lowest point of the
day. On tlie third call the market was firm, with a
recovery of 1(&'< points, except on October, which
failed to respond to the general advance. The
clos? was steady, at a further partial advance of
1(2-4 points, bringing the figures up to those of last
evening for March and April, while October was 7
points lower, May 5 points lower, and the other
months 1@2 points lower than last evening. At
New Orleans the market opened steady, at a decline
i of 2^6 points, ruled steady, and closed steady at an
I advance from the lowest figures, but 1(5*0 points
! lower than last evening. At New York
; futures opened steady at a decline of 5<§j6 points,
I declined further early in the day. but were steady

to-day in the Stock Exchalige was the weakness and
depression in Villard shares. These stocks were
subjected to sharp attacks throughout the day, and
the lowest prices for some time past were made.

uring for 27,922, preferred for 106,315 and Oregon
Transcontinental for 70.300 shares out of total sales
for the day of 382,866 shares. The break was caused
by heavy sales, which were accompanied by a re-
vi val of rumors recently current regarding the
financial condition of the companies. It was also
rumored that the bull pool in shares had. gone to
pieces. The general mrket received but little at-

Advocate: It is believed by some of our cot-
ton-raisers that there is time for a considera-
ble fall crop of cotton Sunday, as Mr. Ed
Lochausen. who lives on the Garcitas, was rid-
ing along near John Kutchka's, he was shot at
by a Polander. whose name we failed to learn.
The weapon used was a Winchester, and the
ball struck the pommel of his saddle in front.
Mr. Lochausen recognized the person who fired
the shot and had him arrested. After the ar-
rest was made Ed took the liberty of giving
him a thumping, and then proceeded to this
city, when he pleaded guilty to a simple assault
and was fined by Justice Hall 85 and costs. The
Polander had a difficulty with Lochausen sev-
eral years ago, and his attempt to kill him is
probably due to the bad feelings engendered at
that time. He is said to have borrowed tne
gun from a neighbor a few moments before he
fired, and stationed himself on the route near
where he knew his intended victim would pass.
He lives, we believe, near Yorktown or Meyers-
ville. and was held to 8500 bail to await the
next term of court.

Professor George Bartholomew has a horse
show, which he calls the equine-paradox. It
has had a big run in Boston and is doing a
great busiuess in New York. The first scene
is a Pferde Garten representing an old horse
professor looking out of the door after his
scholars, while in the yard one horse is pump-
ing water for another horse. The horses pas*
across the stage on their way to school with
bonnets, hats and caps on their heads and >
school books, bags aud lunch baskets in their
mouths. In the next scene they are playing in
the schdol yard. They form into line at the
rear end of the stage to receive the
professor. After school opens, Prince brings
papers and a handkerchief from a closed dedc,
lifting the lid. Mustang rings the bell for
blackboard exercises, and Sprite erases figures
on a blackboard with a sponge. Pope and
Brutus are required to stand on their heads be-
fore the school for beiug late, and, being an-
gered with the punishment. Pope carries away
the prefessors chair and Brutus steals his
handkerchief out of his coat pocket. Beuct^La-
lus dances a jig and marches. Caesar makes a
figure eight or a circle, and lies down by comJ
mand of any one in the audience.
He is also a very good dancer, and
marches handsomely. Chevalier displays his
knowledge of colors by selecting red from
white aud finding either color when buried in
sawdust. Abdallah marches, trots, walks,
gallops and paces with remarkable accuracy.
Beauty rolls a bai*rel with her nose, while
Nellie stands with her fore feet on a pedestal,
and Nellie rolls a barrel over a teter plank
while Beauty stands on a pedestal. Prince and
Pope balance on a teter plank. The court
scene, which affords much merriment, repre-
sents as near as possible a regular court scene
with judge, jury, lawyers, etc. The various
difficult evolutions in the military drill are
done with an accuracy and promptnes sur-
passing many military companies. The com-*
pany scene where the horses are asleep, with
Denver Jim and Sprite on guard duty, forms
a beautiful picture. In the battle scene they
fire cannons and rescue a flag from the fort,
which is waved by each one in turn seizing the
flag and rearing."
The largest cow in America—so termed by
the Western press—belongs to John Pratt, of
Kansas. She is three years old, and weighs
3200 pounds.
Every house of the human race ought to

At the request of the Garfield National
Monument association, Messrs. Vaux and Par-
sons, landscape architects, of New York, have,
been making a study of the High Bluff in Lake
View cemetery, Cleveland, where the memori-
al is to be placed, in order to make a definite
selection of a site, to determine the exact posfc
tion of the monument and to decide upon the
approaches and planting. The plans are to be
completed at once and the work will begin
during the autumn.
By a ruling of Solicitor Raynor, Cadet Tay-
lor will be enabled to compromise the amount
of a fraud perpetrated by his clerk in the
postoffice at Wenona, 111.
