is in Imperialism or territorial expansion.
It has become quite a fad with her to
discuss the poor accommodations of the
white house with public men. She has
some very original ideas, and some which
are very practical. 1 understand that she
mas araNn several plans of additions she
would like to see made In the white house,
and that she has made a number of con-
verts to her ideas. Senator Hanna holds
out for new executive mansion, as do a
number of the members of public buildings
and grounds. For long time there has
been maturing plan in the house COM
mittee to buy piece Of land in the north
west of the city and to build upon it a
magnificent palace to be used exclusively
for the family of the president. At one
time the movement had gone so far as to
secure the cooperation of architects, and
the walls of the committee have hung on
them some very interesting designs for a
new white house, ranging from simple de-
signs of Colonial style to palaces resemb-
ling in their Notifications, some of the
feudal castles. Such plans have always re-
ceived SO much adverse criticism that it
has been found to be almost futile to even
recommend them to congress. The Ameri-
can people are welded to the white house
and they love moreover the simple sur
roundings of their presidents. There is no
doubt whatever that if half of the well-to-
do families In the country owned the
it remodeled or else tear 1t down to build
another with modern improvements" But
Mrs. Mckinley does not think 1t should
ever be torn down. She has the same
reverence for 1t as the majority of Ameri-
can people have, but she believes that 1t
could be enlarged, more than double its
size IN fact without destroying its beauty
while at the same time keeping its his
toric memories clinging about its corfn-
THAN columns.
One plan which she has drawn shows
two wings extending in a semi-circular
form to the rear of the building of the
same height as the present structure and
finished in the same style. These wings
bulge out from either end of the house
and subscribe a complete semi-circule
which would give to the building the shape
of a crescent. The exterior would be flank
ed with columns the same as those IN
front of the white house. and would create
a beautiful and harmonious facade. one
wing would be devoted to the family OF
the president while the present building,
with an additional wing, would be USED
for Offices and public reception rooms The
plans are something on the order of those
prepared under the direction of Mrs Har-
rison when she was in the white house,
but differ in the respect that those OF MIS-
Mckinley keeps the present structure ap-
solutely intact , at the same time retain
ing the pure colonial style of architecture.

KANSAS CITY STOCK YARDS,
1000

KANSAS CITY STOCK YARDS,
A pril II, 1899.
The heavy receipts of cattle in Chi
cago the first of the week and liberal
runs at Kansas City had very dis
astrous effect on prices; they broke 10
to Is cents Monday and the trade has
been very unsatisfactory up to date.
Plain, heavy, rough cattle are the
hardest kinds to sell; fat, tidy, light,
dehorned steers weighing 900 to 1000
lbs. have shown the slightest decline
The big runs were very much of a
surprise to everyone, and we don't look
for repetition of the same in the
near future.
The best cows and heifers are in ac-
tive demand, but medium grades are
not sought after much by killers, al
though Gamers have been in active
demand all week.
Stockers and feeders have been in
heavy supply, and as the demand con-
tinues good for them, they did not
break in sympathy with fat cattle.
There has been very little change
IN the hog market during the past
week; the market is holding about
steady from day to day although re-
ceipts are light. Packers don't seem
anxious for heavy supplies, as the pl O.
vision market is not in very good
shape.
1t takes strictly choice hogs to
bring the top of the market. Fine
light hogs are selling well compare
lively and will probably continue to
the balance of the season, but long
haired, trashy, light stuff is slow sale
at mean prices. Rough old sows are
di minated against and are selling
-neap.

The editor is hungry
And the paper bout to bust.
We've trusted you
For several months
And did it with a smile,
So just return the compliment
And trust us for awhile.
Our wife she needs some stockings
And our baby needs dress;
Jimmie needs some breeches
And so do Kate and Bess.
Pud is on the hog train
And Peggy sick with grief,
And good gosh almighty
Can't You give a man relief
81 Ell out the nickels
And turn loose the dimes,
Turn 'em loose and whistle
And we'll have better times;
There'll be fewer patches
On the bosom of our pants
Well make the paper better
If we only get the chance
Don't give us that old story
Long gone to seed,
Bout taking more papers
Than the family want to read.
