CATTLE MARKET SOME WEAKERBUT STEADY The Portland Union Stockyards Company reports as follows: Receipts for the week have been: Cattle 824, calves 11, hogs 3552, sheep 5622, horses 106. During the week the cattle market has been steady to a shade weaker. The bulk of the steer offerings have been short of the prime in quality and the few in this week's, run were difficult to move at $7.50 to $7.75. De mand is slow for all grades, but es pecially so for poorly finished stuff and small lots of cows sold from $7 down to $4.50, according to quality. Light calves steady to strong at $9. Bulls steady at $5.50 to $6.00. An improved tone featured the swine- market. Prime hogs found ready buyers at $7.50 to $7.75 and one car at $7.50, prices from five to ten cents higher than recent quotations. Receipts totaled over 3500 head and the entire supply was cleaned up without delay. The demand for prime weathers, yearlings and ewes was greater than receipts, the bulk of which were con tract shipments. Yearlings at $6.25 to $6.35, wethers $6 to $6.15 and ewes at $5.15 to $5.25 represent the bulk prices in the sheep house. Lamb trade seemed firm as $7.25 bids were easily, coaxed if choice quality was offered. The lamb supply "has been small as the 1912 crop is nearly ex hausted.

Men Haven't Asked For Representa tion on National Commission or More Pay, but Will In All Probability. May Precipitate Another War. xBy TOMMY CLARK. More money that in brief is the explanation of the Baseball Players' fraternity, the organization which is supposed to be seeking an uplift in the profession. Such moves are recurrent in baseball. About once in every baseball genera tion, if the financial condition of the game seems to warrant it, the players come forward with demands for re forms, chief among which has always been the request for a larger proportion of the emoluments of baseball. But once, in 1890, did the players en deavor to enforce their demands by actually going on strike, but that is all that differentiates the Brotherhood re volt from the Union association move ment of 1884 and the Players' Protec tive association of 190Q. The first of these movements, the Union association of 1884, though frankly capitalistic in its organization, nevertheless owed a portion of its ephemeral success to its espousal of the cause of the "downtrodden" players. The Brotherhood movement six years later was the most serious attempt on the part of the players to control the financial end of baseball yet made. Prior to the revolt the organization had been limited altogether to players under contract to National leagueclubs. When the men went out they took with them many of the stars of the American association. But they failed in their effort to control baseball main ly because they failed to make the league pay and, with their backers, consequently lost heart. The Players' Protective association, formed ten years later, never amounted to much. Coinciding, as its organization did, with the war between the National and American leagues, the players of that day lost sight completely of mu tual aid or anything else in the mad scramble after fat contracts. The present organization asks openly for the beOex protection of the players while on the field. There can be no objection to that. They have not as yet demanded representation on the national commission, as it was an nounced they would when the associa tion first took definite shape last Sep tember, but this demand may be forth coming later. They have not made many financial demands thus far. but that this fea ture was uppermost in the minds of many who have subscribed to the or ganization was shown last summer, when ia discussing the matter the players said that a demand for half pay on training trips -would be asked in 1913. No mention whatever of de mands as to salary increase was made, except by some of the Detroit players while on strike last May. At that time several of the striking player's said that "the magnates are getting it all, anyway, while we are getting nothing." That the other players on the Detroit club would have strucS for the sake of either Cobb or the principle involved in the attack made by that player upon a spectator in New York is quite" unlikely. They sought rather to terrorize the magnates into giving them something and failed utterly because of insufficient organiza tion. Should any attempt be made to strike at, the present time such movement would necessarily result In failure. Or ganized baseball is far more strongly fortified today than it was in 1890. when the unsuccessful Brotherhood re volt occurred. But it is not likely that players in the light of past experi ences and with so wise a head as Da vid Fultz leading the association will attempt any movement of this sort, at least until they have extended their organization to at least as low as Class B. Then, if a considerable percentage of their members do not succumb to tempting offers sure to be made by the magnates of the two big leagues in event of a strike, they can go out with some reasonable prospects of success. A strike under existing conditions would be almost necessarily fatal. CUBS HAVE BEST CATCHERS. With Archer and Bresnahan Team Will Rank First Behind Bat. In adding Roger Bresnahan to his catching staff Owner Murphy of the Chicago Cubs has now arranged the greatest catching staff in the country and probably the strongest In the his tory of baseball. Jimmy Archer is regarded as the game's greatest catcher today, and Bresnahan is one of the few lose be hind the wonderful Cub. Between these two Manager Evers will always have a great catcher on duty and to a certain extent offset in this way the loss of Chance. Tinker and Brown.. It is understood that Bresnahan and Archer will catch alternately, working an equal number of contests through out the year. Swiss as They Talk. Many of the Swiss regard themselves as great linguists. I asked one gentle man the reason for, this, but he refused to tell me. He seemed, for some rea son, to be offended at the ' question. Another native I met told me he spoke seven languages; to me it seemed as if he spoke them all at once. I know a little of German myself and was quite interested in listening to him. For some reason he put me in mind of a patchwork quilt trying to talk one of those crazy ones. Wide World Magazine. A BURGLAR EPISODE By ESTHER VANDEVEER I was educated, for a trained nurse. One of the doctors who recommended me was Alexis Fisher. I stood first on his list of nurses, and I have known him to pay me what I would be earn ing in order to have me disengaged when he expected to need me for a spe cial case. v One day Dr. Fisher sent me to nurse a nervous old lady who was very ill. She was very rich, and, although the doctor was as diligent with & poor pa tient as a rich one, he made his in come out of the latter, never charging those whom, he knew were very poor. He told me that my patienff Miss Bar tow, must not meet with any shock, for there was a heart complication in her case, and even the violent slam ming of a door might cause her death. Imagine my horror at having . bur glars in the house with my patient. About midnight I was going from her room to my own when a dazzling light was flashed in my eyes. I was im pelled to run somewhere, but the mem ory that it was my duty to prevent any one causing Miss Bartow's death pre vented me. I stood still while this was passing through . my mind and when I had nerved myself walked toward where I had seen the light near the head of the staircase. 1 leaned over the ban ister and wraired. In another moment the light was flashed again. Then I said: "There is a sick lady up here at the point of death. Stay downstairs, and I will go down and turn over what val uables I can find." "All right," said a man's voice. "Come down." He flashed his light on me, and I went down the stairs, feeling that he might shoot me as I walked or stab me when I reached him. He went down into the hall (backward) and when I reached it ordered me to go into the dining room, and there he lighted the gas. I saw a short, thick set man, masked, who said to me: "Now, what have you got?" Miss Bartow had been used to taking the silver upstairs, and I had not been able to quiet her before settling for the night until I had brought it up to her and put it in a closet in her room, where she was used to keeping it. Had it been in any other room I would have turned it over to the burglar at once. As it was, I was obliged to plan. To gain time I opened the sideboard as though I expected to find it there, then told the burglar that it was up stairs in the sick chamber. He didn't believe me and, placing the cold muzzle of a revolver on my ear, said that if I didn't produce some valuables he would kill me. I was' so terrified that I , told him I would get some jewelry at once, but since Miss Bartow had both- silver and Jewelry; in her room I could do nothing. Finally desperation steadied me, and I reiter ated what I had said, telling him that to remove anything from that room would inform the sick woman that there was a burglar in the house and that would give her a shock from which she would die. "Go and get -It," he said, but at once reconsidered. ;"Where's your tele phone?" he asked. "In there." I said and pointed to an Instrument in the hall. He went to it and looked at it, then ordered me to bring him the valuables, saying that if I was not back in four minutes he would get them himself and kill every one in the room. - . A great hope sprang up in my breast Miss Barton, who was very, timid, had always had a telephone instrument be side her bed. I had begged her to per mit me to move it into the closet, and when the doctor commanded she con sented. I told the burglar that I would bring him the yaluables If. he would only go away on getting them and went upstairs. He followed me with a flashlight till I had gone Into the room, but could not very well follow me further without going in with me. I went straight to the closet shut the door and called "Police!"- several times, giving the location. As I came out Miss Bartow, who had been asleep, awakened and asked for water. I went out "and found the bur glar waiting at the door. He had heard the call for water, but seeing me empty handed, seemed to be in doubt whether to order me back, go In the room himself or let me get the water. Perhaps he preferred not to make a disturbance; perhaps' he be lieved my story about the invalid's condition. He ordered me to "hurry up," and, going into the bathroom, I drew a glass of water and took It into the sickroom. I dreaded for my patient the com ing of the police andthe disturbance and what would follow. I must take an awful risk. Going out into the hall, I beckoned the man to follow me a short distance from the sickroom and said: "There's a telephone in the closet in there, and I have called the police." He went down the stairs three or four steps. at a time and out of the house. When the police arrived I told them of the invalid and that the bird had flown. Miss Bartow got up again, but not for long. She died shortly after the burglar episode and left me $50,000. Dr. Fisher was so well pleased with my handling of the case that he asked me to become his permansnt partner. I accepted his offer and was glad to leave my work as nurse. A Bride on the Minute. It was a most ludicrous mistake. She Imagined her wedding day, was Wed nesday, w hen In truth it wasn't to take place till the day after. "Just like a woman. And everything went awry, and the bridegroom gnash ed his teeth. 1 suppose?" "Well, hardly. In fact, everything turned out beautifully.
