how the French tried to take Velmy
Kidge and lost 60,000 troops. Tho
French gave It up and the English
tried It, but failed. They lost 100,
000 men. Then the Canadian troops
went in with 20,000 men and took
the stronghold. He said that there
were about fifteen Americans to every
hundred Canadians. Ho described
the barbed wire entanglements' and
the Gorman trenches. He says that
a soldier should look on the pleasant
Bide of life, and not on the gloomy
side. He says that their troops go
into a fight singing. He told us how
poor the English people spoke Eng
lish. One day he saw a Frenchman
trying to teach three English Tom
mies how to spouk correct EnglUh.
This talk was certainly appreci
ated. He was choerod tlmo and
again.

To tho Editor of tho Mist:
fi.mn of u a St. Ilolons boys are
stationed at a fort about Boven miles
from 8oattle. Wo like It very much
hero, and are not sorry we enlisted.
We were vlsltod by a Canadian sol
dlor today who had nerved In the
present war. Ho govo us a lecture
on the horrors of war. He gave us;
rfnaerintiiin of the battle fields. Ho
says that the English and German
soldlorB are great fighting niacnine.;.
hut hn savs that the American soi-
dlors fBf outclass any he lias seen
In the service. He told us now me
aormans mutilated tho dead bodies,
how they would tromp on them and
cut them to ploces. He says that the
Germans took dead bodies and ex
tracted glycerine out of them and
miv..,i it with othor chemicals to
make explosives. Ho also told us
Cattle A big supply of cattle was
received from California and central
Oregon points, although only a few
lots In the entire run were strictly
fat stuff. There was an excellent de
muud from practically all northwest
butcher and killers, and the large
run was quickly absorbed at prices
ranging from steady to 26c higher.
One lot of California steers brought,
$10.76. which was the only real j
prlmo lot of steers In the entire run, j
and buyers showed that they were!
willing to pay for well finished beef. ;
Several other small bunches brought j
110.26 and S 10.60, with one load of
very good steers at $10.
Strictly choice cows and heifera
were In good domand with several
lots at $9, and a top on one bunch at
$9.60. Very good cowa brought
around $8, with strictly fat dairy
brod cows, and probably a little lower
on a few sales, selling from $6 to
$6.60. Bulls wore In good supply
and demand equally as good, with
I heavy bullp again bringing $7.60.
HogsThe demand was excellent,
with comparatively good supply and
prices advanced from the start, with
a net gain for the day of from 26 to
36o. Several of the best load
brought $16.60, with the bulk of the
sales running from $16.36 to $16.60.
Pigs are Btlll being out vory hard
by buyers, with the bulk at $12 tn
$12.60, although small bunches are
