Slaughter, president of the Beef Producers and; Butchers National associ -ation, has addressed a letter to the cat-tie raisers, feeders and butchers of the United States by the direction of the executive committee of the Beef Producers' and -Butchers' National, associ-tion. He invited all who desire the re-establishmerit of competitive cattle markets aud the.enactment by the states of such prudential live stock inspection laws as will raise beef products above alt suspicion of 5 disease to send $5 to the secretary of the Beet Producers' and Butchers Isational association at Dal las, Tex. to cover membership dues in the association for one yean Membership dues have been placed at the small sum of $5 to enable every one interested to participate in the efforts to place the business of cattle raising and slaughtering on a basis determined by rational laws of trade acid to secure to consumers absolute protection from all possibility of eating diseased meat. Bills prepared by CoL J. O.

Broad-head, president of the American Bar association, will be introduced Jn legislative assembly this winter pro viding for state and territorial live stock inspection. Copies of these bills and Col. Broadhead' opinion demonstrating the constitutionality of the legislation will be forwarded within a few days to parties in every state, who will see that the legislation desired is pushed to the greatest possible extent. Col, Slaughter concludes his letter as follows: 1 To the GO. 000.

000 ceoole of the United States I would say that we desire such safeguards thrown around the beef trade as will place directly in the hands of the people who are to be injured or benefited the con trol of inspection which will secure heet in all markets. We believe that the demand for beef will be largely increased whenever local inspection in all towns condemns meat that does not come from animals inspected by them alive and found to be healthy. Relvina on the intellicrence and patriotism of the people of the United States, we call on them to petition the legislatures or tneir respective states to enact the state live stock inspection laws which will be introduced under the auspices of oar association in every legislative assembly this winter, reliance mav be: placed on the fact that we are thoroughly in earnest and will use every honorable means to accomplish the work we have undertaken, the success of which will prove beneficiai not only to the cattle industry, but also to the people of the entire country. i FULLER IS A A JLively Game of Seven Innings and Time Not Yet Called An Interest-in Diary, i Rockfokd, Illl.

Alvira Clark was the second wife. She died. Nettie Moore was Fuller's wife three months and then soucht and secured a divorce. Fuller's fourth wife was Mrs- Elizabeth Cynthia Davis. One night the woman former husband crawled into jp.uiier bed-room and shot bim in the leg.

A divorce followed. Mollie Bishop was Fuller's fifth; wife. She involved her husband in a stabbintr affray and was then released from the matrimonial yoke bv the divorce court. Xiotta Kay was Fuller 8 sixth wife and she eloped with a brake man.

As his nead comes out be is held a moment by the half opened door, just long enougn for a lusty armed assistant to drive a gaily-colored bandeniio into nis neca, nndnn he comes, maddened and charg ing at, AVArvthiner he may see. These mpn that we have described are in the ring, but remain near protecting targets on the inuer wall or tne ring, xor mere ar two walls." 'A foot rail gives them a purchase, and when hard pressed they vault over into the space between this and the outer wall.

and. unfortunately, are We shall only describe one fiffht out of the six bulls killed. One is enourh for any one in this latitude. A large long-horned black bull was sent out fiercest of all of them. Stabbed deeply by the barb, he went at everything with a terrible earnestness, at a a mounted picadore, and he has ripped a great hole in the breast of the horse, and the blood came in showers.

A sec ond charge and another horse went down, and so with the third two of them being killed, aucn destruction maddened the whooping crowd and the scene was one that only a Dore could fairly catch. It seemed as if the blood of the bull and the horses had maddened the great yelling crowd and here we heard the only cheers that came to our ears while that country 1 TUree horses down and the alderman ordered the horses away, and then came the work of the banderillos. Each one of these handsomely dressed fellows took two darts, each two lees in length and loaded at one end. The duty of this particular brute in gilded tights was to advance on the bull, and as the ani mal came at him, plant those barbs in the upper portions of his neck. Well planted they drop over and are fastened for good.

As well try to shake out a great, heavy fish hook. As the barbs are driven into the bull his temper is. not improved, and the pain drives, him to frantic action. He sees the red cape near and, charges, but the ague fellows are away, and he only has the cape to goes on until six of the barbs 'are placed in the bull he always on the charge when the busie calls the matador to his worlc of killing the maddened beast. He doffs bis hat to the alderman, then throws it down with the bull, and armed with a red nag and a straight thirty-inch sword, faces the now pantin bull.

He waves the red and does ail that he can to make the bellowing fellow charge. For the matador cannot strike only save when the bull charges. He does charge, and the sword jumps into his neck from the top. Una stroke out of the many only was fatal all the others requiring sev eral before the fatal spot was reached. In one case it was necessary to lasso and throw the bull when he was Killed, by butcher, mas six bulls were killed and two sent in who would not and were sent back.

The brave bull, always died, but the coward he escaped. As some one of the fighters made a good play, according to the, code of the bull ring. how the hats would sail out into the air, and into that ring at the feet of the agile fellow who had made the thrust! With what grace he would pick them up, bow, and find. theui tback having been honored in the highest way known to the code. With the hats came flowers fiom dark-eyed senorttas eyes like midnight in darkness and without measurable depth! An old man probably should not up tne eyes of lovely women in the bloody mazes of a great bull fight; but it should be remembered that this was Mexico, the land of pulque and mescal, and there was a democrat.

an Iowa democrat, and. a' 'dry one in the crowd, and when such a conjunc tion occurs the records tell the story! But hats," dark eyes, pulque, mescal and the slaughter. AYe stayed it out. but candor compels to say that our prayer and -nope was that each bull would kill man or two en gaged in the torture. Every ele ment of disgust was aroused in us, and we have seen the first and last bull fight.

it is brutal in tne extreme. It' 13 cowardly, for it gives ho 'bull a fair chance. Man has everything on his side unlike the old Roman battles, when matters Were made as near even as possible. The mules who were used to drag the dead bulls out, one by one just after the kill ing, seemed to be imbued with great decency, for they wanted to bolt at each time away from, the unsavory job. btill, there were thousands of people theref and many of them delicate' ladies and their children.

Queer ways: and queer feelings that could take ele gant ladiei to a scene of brutal butchery. We have confessed, and here promise never more to see a bull fight, Sunday or any other day, place, country or time. One is enough a lifetime save unless there should be guarantee that the bull would kill the whole out fit. In that case we would want to be there to hurrah, for the bull. GEKMS.

For centuries these ring-encir cled cruelties were, popular, but with the coming of a civilization, slowly, winning its way; came a gradual diminution of the sports more distinctively brutal. The northern nations were first to yield to the benign influences, and it is only among the southern nations those coming from the Spanish cross where brutes are used in public sports and. most cruellv. and barbarousTv treated amidst the applause of the at tending thousands.

14. 1S83. 1 1 THEATRE ETIQUETTE. Never whistle durins a death scene on ithe stage. Do not olav noker with your neighbor during the play.

Never try to be near your friends by sitting on the arm of an orchestra chair. Be self possessed on all "If tho central chandelier falls upon you try to appear unconcerned. Take the seats the usher rnve3 you. Do not insist uoon occunvinar a Drivate btx on the strength of a iiat check. 1 Dress quietly for the theatre.

A loud suit frequently keeps the other auditors from hearing what is said on the stage. Those who affect the front row in the tdlery must not drop peanut shells, erby hats or rubbers into the orchestra circle. Do not spoil the plot of the play by yelling to the villain not to forget the incriminating papers he drops near the corpse. Persons, who take cold easily and are especially susceptible to draughts should never sit near the cornet player in the orchestra, If you can hire a pair of opera glasses without, paying a deposit it is only a weak sentiment that requires you to return If you have the end seat do not stretch your legs all the way across the aisle. Leave a little room for the book-of-the-opera boy to pass, i Jt the gentleman next you goes out between acts, remember that no lady will place her tutti frutti on his vacant chair and forgot all about it until next rr orning.

When you take jyour deaf uncle with you repeat all the jokes to him. Some jokes are so good that the rest of. the audience will not mind, hearing them a second time. i In leaving the theatre if 'you are a woman, put your muff in the small of the gentleman's back in front of you and push. If you are a man put your arms akimbo and waddle.

Men of short stature who find it difficult to soe the stage will find a thick ulster and a sealskin sacque of great as-sistance when properly folded and 'used as a basis of operations. You may throw a bouquet or a horse-shoo of roses at the prima donna, but never heave a brick at the tenor or prostrate the basso profundo (by hitting him in the; neck with a golosh. Even if a play is stupid you havo no right to snore so loud that the walking gentleman forgets his lines through'ner-vousneRa. Snoring, howevci loud, will not make the play any better. If the author of the play happens to sit next to you, do advise him to go to eorne other theatre to see a show that is worth looking at.

Ho may have done his best on tho play you aro witnessing. On rainy nights gallery- gods are not permitted by the rules of etiquette to hang their dripping umbrellas over the railing. Such a course is apt to dampen the ardor of the audience down stairs. Head all the jokes printed on the pro-gramme and forever after eschew thexn.
