CATTLE-Only eleven loads of cattle were
reported in the yards this morning, and
or that number six were from Kansas City,
consigned direct to a local packer and not
offered for sale. The few cattle received
were disposed of, but there were not enough
to make n market.
The cattle market this week has been in a
good, healthy condition and to the liking
of sellers. The tendency of values has
been upward on all kinds. Cornfed cattle
have been in active demand and have sold
readily every day of the week. Cows and
heifers have also been good sellers. 1t is
safe to say at the close of the week that
the market on killing cattle is fully 10c
higher than 1t was a week ago, in some
eases possibly there has been a little more
gain than that. Stockers and feeders have
been in good demand owing to the very
good crop prospects in the country and the
market on all desirable kinds may be quoted
l0dl5c higher for the week. The supply has
not been large and at the close of the week
very few cattle are left in the hands of
spectators to be carried over, so that the
market is in "a good, healthy condition.

New Orleans Times Democrat: Some of
the new seals are very bold and stylish but
require many wax sticks more than the ordi-
nary round monographs. One New Orleans
girl has a monogram an inch and a quarter
long; this necessitates a much longer back
ground of the wax, and she has been known
to expend half a stick on one letter. She
uses black wax for air purposes just for the
individuality of it, and sometimes rubs a
little gold paint over the seal. allowing 1t
to remain only in the crevice of the die and

ANTI-SALOON REVIVAL.
First of Series of Meetings Under
Leagues Auspices.

The first meeting of the fourth anti-sa-
loon revival series, under the auspices of
the Anti-Saloon League of the District Of
Columbia, WAS held last evening in Mt
Vernon Place NJ. E. Church South The
auditorium, which has been remodeled and
beautifcd during the past summer, was
handsomely decorated with the stars and
stripes and above the pulpit was stretched
a broad streamer bearing the motto and
platform of the league, THE Saloon Must
Go" On either side of the platform were
banners Of affiliated bodies.
A large audience filled the church at s
o'clock, when the speaker of the evening,
Rev. a. j. Wheeler of Maine, was intro
duced by Mr.. James L. Ewin. president of
the league. Mr.. Wheeler took for his
theme, "A New Remedy for an Old EVIL"
lntemperance, he said, is one of the Oldest
evils known to history, and it has been
pronounced by science to be a disease The
speaker admitted that it is a disease, and
highly contagious one and then proceed
ed to prescribe the treatment which he
thought would eradicate the malady from
the land He defined the three things nee
esSary to successfully combat the disease
TO be education, isolation and fumigation.
A higher moral education is necessary, he
said. in order that the people may fully
appreciate the evils of intemperance in
connection with the moral character. But
education must be followed by isolation
and the speaker explained this to mean
prohibition of the liquor traffic in order
that the rising generation might not be
exposed to the contagion Fumigation
would be accomplished by clearing away
the rubbish of the saloon in politics and
society, and taking means to prevent the
return of the disease.
Preceding and following the address by
Mr.. Wheeler, Mr.. and Mrs c. c. Bever-
idge of Nebraska, the well-known tenn
rerance campaign singers, entertained the
audience with anti-saloon songs. THE
Railroad to Heaven You Can't" Uncle
Sans Canteen' and "In a Licensed Sa-
loon were some of the suggestive titles
of the songs, the latter being an answer
to the old familiar query, Where is My
Wandering Boy Tonight"
President Ewin read a telegram from
Mr.. Jesse c. Suter, secretary of the Anti
Saloon League and chairman of the COM
mittee of arrangements, III which he sent
greetings and prayers for the success of
the revival Mr.. Suter is unavoidably alb
sent from the city, and the work of the
committee, Mr.. Ewin stated, had fallen
largely on Mr.. r. E. l. Smith of Mt Yer
non Church, as vice chairman, in Mr. Su-
ter's absence. The series of meetings will
continue every evening of this week, the
Rev. Mr. Wheeler addressing each meeting
on different phase of the question. The
Beveridges will sing al every session.
The meetings begin at $50 o'clock with
a sorg service, conducted by Mr. and Mrs
Beveridge. Mr. Wheelers theme this even
ing is to be THE Relation of the Church
to the Anti-Saloon League

LONDON's COSTLY GUESTS.
Great Sums Are Expended in Enter
tanning Dignftarfes.


When the city entertains distinguished
guests 1t lavishes its money with pro-
fusion more BETTING an Eastern potentate
than body of thrifty city men. 1t is,
indeed, no uncommon thing for the city
fathers to spend on the entertainment of
guest much more than his own weight
in gold, a complimet surely of which even
Emperors may be proud.
The city was never moved to more prod
igal hospitality than in 1876 when it en-
tertained the Prince of Wales on his re-
turn from India. In honor of the return
of the wanderer," the Lord Mayor and
corporation spent no less than $137,s95, or
sufficient sovereigns to outweigh two
princes, even of his present ample pro-
portions. Nine years earlier the city was
equally lavish, when it entertained the Sui
tan at a cost of $123, 069 In 1893 1t cost the
corporation So, O35 to welcome the Shah
of Persia, although in the following year
the Gar was brilliantly entertained at a
cost of nearly $4,000 less.
Thanksgiving day cost the city $65, 1876,
or almost as much as the Cars reception;
and the jubilee rejoicings of 1887 left the
city poorer by SIS 600.
The Prince of Wales" wedding, thirty
five years ago, was the signal for a great
display of city hospitality. The amount
spent in entertainments alone was $63, 200
and, in addition 10 this, the corporation
spent $4,000 on the diamond necklace and
earrings presented to the Princess.
When the Queen attended the Lord
Mayors banquet in 1887, the corporation
spent $4,000 in entertaining her, and the
outlay, when she again honored the city
fourteen years later was $2S no. Thus, on
nine entertainments alone, the city has
lavished no less than $669, 055 or an aver
age of $74,340 for each guest.
In contrast to this regal entertainment,
it is interesting to state that in 1927 George
II was entertained at cost Of $1S8; King
Victor Emanuel, in 1865, for $3.50, and Mr..
Stanley, eight years ago, for SITES.
The marriage of the Duke and Duchess
of York cost the city $19,240; in 1891, the
German Emperor was entertained for
$1S, $40; the SHAH in 1889, for s10,240, and the
King of Denmark, in 1888, for the very
moderate sum of $S,825.
II marks the unstable character of city
hospitality that it cost to entertain an
Emperor, a Shah and King less than
one-third the sum layished on the Sultan
in 1867

TALKING ABOUT SIDEWALKS.
SOuthsiders Discuss the Question
whenever They Get Together.

The people of the southside have been
discussing the change in the sidewalk or
dinance. which the City Council is soon
to make. As has been stated in the Morn
ing News. the question of revising the or
dances is with the committees on open
ing streets and streets and lanes, which
is to report at a future meeting. 1t is eX-
pected they will consult the southsiders,
and then make such recommendation as
they think win meet the desires of the
largest number.
The property owners are looking into the
desirabiity of materials, and wherever
a few of them are thrown together, the
ordinance generally becomes the topic of
conversation BY this means there is an
exchange of views as to the best kind of
walks, and if the committee having the
matter in hand inquire among the south
siders in a few days, it is likely they will
be able to get an idea of their desires
about sidewalk material, This seems to
be the issue at present as all are in fav-
or of walks of some kind the question be-
ing the material of which they are to be
built.
THE objections which have been raised
to the present ordinance will be sustained
by the City Council" said a southsider
yesterday "All of the present board are
aware of the burdens the people residing
in that section have had to bear during
the past few months, and are, therefore,
inclined to be more considerate on that
account, Had we not been forced to pay
for the Bull street paving, which viii al
ways be regarded as one of the most I'M
satisfactory pieces of public work done m
Savannah, we would probably not have
objected to the sidewalk ordinance. But
as the expense of the paving has been
great, and the people feel they have not
received the best thing for their money,
they are not prepared TO lay a costly side
walk. A moderate-priced material is what
some of us want, while there are others
ready to use the artificial stone"
The impression upon aldermen who have
made some inquiries about the kind of
material desired, is that the matter will
have to be left to the residents of each
block. This has been suggested by AL
derman Williams, and it seems the plan
will not only secure a decision that will
be binding upon the people after it is
made, but will relieve Council of much
work in hearing the individual desires OF
property owners. Let an Arrangement
be made for the people residing on each
book to assemble at some convenient
place, discuss the matter among them
selves. conclude what they want and then
send their report to Council" said one
man. Let the points at issue be set
tied in this way. Council can refer the
matter to the people and get an answer
from them within a week"
