Cattle

Monday, Oct. T.
Good beef cattle were again scarce, al
though there was fair run of cattle. While
the general market could only be quoted
steady on such cattle as there were here, the
feeling was stronger on desirable beeves
The demand was good and such cattle as the
packers could use or such as they wanted
sold fairly we'll. The cattle here were
mostly all westerns, with only few light
natives, and not of very good quality on an
average, There were a few fair beeves, but
none that could be, called choice, and the
great bulk OF the cattle had to be graded as
feeders Such native steers as were here
sold al S3.55G3. So while the westerns brought
s2.S0@2.90. Butchers stock changed hands
at about steady prices, but there was not
much here. A small lot of corn-fed heifers
reached $780, but the natives sold mostly at
S2.009235 and westerns at Sl,S5@200. There
were plenty of feeders and stockers in the
yards mostly westerns, with quite sprink-
ling OF northern cattle. The market was
slow all the morning ana the sales were
light, but still there were a number of buy
ors in the yards and quite good many cattle
were sold before the close. Natives sold Mt
S2.40@2.6Il1 and westerns at S2.3502.65.

change for the better or worse in stocks this
morning. Trusts continued TO be an unstable
and depressing feature, while standard
stocks suffered but little and even showed
small gains. The money question still con-
fronts the market During the first hour
call rates were to s per cent. Gossip of
the street during the interim was not Of a
very hopeful character. Even the bulls
concede that there may be some further
shading of prices. A squeeze this
week may catch weak holders
but those who do business
on good bank accounts feel quite safe. The
extreme Wow puts the short interest in
specialties at 10000 shares. FIRST prices
showed an irregular change from Saturdays

weak and declines were more numerous,
Sugar being of Il per cent at So and Cotton

CANCELLED HER VOWS.
A ReliRicuse Rcnounces the Black
Veil After Years OF TRIAL

IT very rarely happens that n nun who
has worn the black veil lays aside her
religious robes and returns to the world
after conventual secluslon, says San
Francisco special to the st. Louis Re-
public. a case OF this kind, however,
has just come to light in Santa Rosa,
Cal. The nun was known as Sister Ger
trude, but now is once more called by
her former name, Miss Jessie Overton.
Her father is Judge A. Il. Overton, one
OF Santa Rosa's wcalthlcst and most in
huential citizens, and Miss Jessie is his
only daughter. She was reared a pro-
testant, but was sent to the Ursunne con-
vent to complete her education, and en-
braced the Catholic faith, notwithstand-
ing Judge Overton's IS strenuous opposi-
tion and avowal that he would disin-
herit his only child. She took the veil,
taught with great wisdom and success.
and her father kept his word. The sis
ter superior of the convent was daugh-
ter OF General Rosecrans.
AS an instance of Sister Gertrude's
religious fervor, 1t is related that Just
previous to Miss Overton's taking the
black voil her brother was accidentally
killed while out hunting, aud her rela-
tives desired her to come home temper
arily during the period of mourning.
The Sister Superior advised her to do
so, but incidentally mentioned that
temporary breaking of the inclosure
would necessitatc postpoucment of her
reception of the veil to n later date than
the time originally set. Notwithstand-
ing her grief she refused to leave the
convent on account of this postpone
ment. Judge Overton was greatly in
censed, and driving his carriage into
the convent garden, attempted to raise
his daughter into tho vehicle to make
her como and take last look at the
dead. He failed, and, in consequence,
the funeral cOrtegc was obliged TO
change its intended route and pass by
the convent in order that the weeping
religieuse might see the coffin OF her
brother on its way to the grave.
After this Sister Gertrude health
failed rapidly. Her convent life was
too trying for her delicate constitution,
and a transfer to Ohio worked no bene-
fit. Meanwhile her father relcnted
and begged h az to return to her home.
The Ursuline nuns lent a helping hand
anda pplied to Pore Leo for cancella-
tion of Sister Gertrude's VOWS. The
favor was granted, and Miss Overton
now returns, after years of separation,
to her fathers side and the happy home
Of her childhood.
