that the BAzoo this morning announces

Yesterday afternoon qnite q large num-
Der Of ladies noted for their Christian Ia
bors and charitable efforts, met al the
rooms, nearly every church in the city
and the outside world being well repre-
sented.
The meeting was organized by electing
Mrs. DR.. Montgomery president and Eloise

INDUCED in and q number of needy and
worthy cases reported to the meeting.

was also presented and adopted and it was
agreed that the regular meetings OF the
society should he held every Tuesday and

The Coming Stock Sale.

As will be seen by reference to the meet
ing of the Short Horn Breeders sssocia.
lion, arrangements have been made for O
Short Horn auction sale some time in May
next. These sales have been successfully
inaugurated in most cities Of conseq uence
throughout the cattle regions of the weet
and are proving not only OF great sdvsn-
tage to farmers and stock breeders, but TO
the localities where they are held ss they
draw large attendance of the best stock
raisers and most enterprising farmers from
all sections to attend them.
The matter is OF 90 much importance In
deed, that Kansas City, has forwarded cir
culsrs to all 6ne stock association within q
radius of 100 miles, Offering them every
inducement TO locate their sales at that
place, with . view to monopolizing, % far
ss practicable, the benefits of this industry.
As 10 but natural. hosever, Pettis county
breeders are disinclined TO deprive their
own county or city OF any advantages that
may accrue from making their sales at
home and have determined to close
Io offer with other points until
they are convinced they cannot do other
wise without incurriug q heavy pecuniary
loes. Hence they have appointed q COM
mittee to investigate the % alter and see il
Il is possible to make success Of sale in
Sedslia. That this can be done they ex-
press themselves con6dtnt, provided the
people Of Sedslis and Pettis county will
giss the matter the aid and encouragement
Its importance demands. and to this end
they have postponed any definite action
until the 31st irst., when il is to be hoped
they..wiil meet with such Q response rs will
bring en- 10 Sedalla.
