CATTLE-There were hardly enough cat
tie here to call IT. a market. only twenty
six fresh loads being reported in the yards.
The trade was as dull and devoid of inter
est as on a Saturday and there were hardly
enough cattle of any one kline to admit of
comparisons being made or to really deter
mine, values.
The few desirable beef steers sold at
steady to strong prices, as high as $4.05 be-
ing paid for one bunch of right good corn
fed steers.
Cows and heifers were not much different
from yesterday, and, though there were only
a few on sale, the buyers did not appear
in any hurry to fill orders. The trade as n
whole was not very active and was without
feature of interest.
There were no stockers or feeders to
amount to anything in the yards. either
fresh receipts or in the hands of SPECTATORS.
The few cattle on sale changed hands at
prices that looked strong. Representative

State Authorities Have Jurisdiction
MILWAUKEE,. Dec. 27.-Judge Seaman

today upheld the Jurisdiction of the state
over the Soldiers home grounds and ordered
the discharge of Thomas Kelly. Kelly was
arrested several weeks ago for ,murderous
assault upon Patrick Coghlin. In his de-
cision Judge Seaman distinctly stated that
he had not the least doubt as TO the power
of congress to assume exclusive Jurisdiction.
ereignty could not be taken away by impli-
cation. The opinion OF Judge Seaman Is of
considerable moment to the $500 inmates of
the Soldiers home, inasmuch as 1t insures
them the undoubted right of suffrage, which
has often been questioned.

GOLDEN WEDDING.

When a worthy couple reach the golden
milestone OF happy welded life, it IS an
occasion meet for reorganization and
rejoicing.
Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Springer cele-
bratcd their golden wedding on the
afternoon OF June p, in the time honored
custom, receiving their friends from two
o'clock to seven. Nearly two score OF old
and tried friends responded to the in
vitations, bringing with them substantial
tokens OF their love and esteem gold
coins, silver ware, china and oil paint
ings Noticeable among the gifts was
a dainty book mark from the little
granddaugh Cassilena.
The weather was persstently unfavor-
able for rare June-the orator OF the
occasion unable to be present, the poet
detained by sickness; but there was
abundance OF good cheer and cordially
from the host and hostess and their duti-
full daug hters, which removed all stln-
ness and formality, making those present
feel that it was a most enjoyable occa-
sion. All did ample justice to the boun-
tifuI collation. which was served at six
o'clock When toasts We're suggested the
"too full for utterance" feeling pervaded.
Mr. Springer, who has been an Invalid
for several years, thanked his friends in
broken voice, and expressed the pleasure
hc felt In meeting them at his own
board.
Letters Of congratulation and high
esteem were read from parties who we're
not nhe to be present, among which "e
heard the names OF George Sils5y, Of
HaHgor; Mrs W. -. Moore, OF Bridge
water, Mas; Ms, Helen Preble, OF Ro7-
tom, and NJ. Gal!ert, of Ellsworth. Music
followed The supper and at an early hour
the guest, took their leave, Wishing ali
blessing and happiness upon remeiA-
ing years OF this estimable couple.
