way from 10 to 17Ia cents with an
average OF AZ cents, u clear gain OF

~ the same In amount as In 1893, IA

In favor of this year.
The price OF cattle has ruled lower,
ana the exports fell on quite 10 per
cent. The condition OF the market ut
the close OF the year ls somewhat more
satisfactory. The demand has only
been fair. and the cattiemen did not
care to sacrifice, and probably not u
exceed $4,000 head have been sold.

stock sheep and ewes have ruled 20

as In 1898. The shipments this year
have been at least 10 per cent higher
than last and the sheep have done
fairly well, although the ranges have
been very dry.
AS for wool. the clip has been a good
one, with q decided advance In price.
and the outcome for wool growers now
Is brighter than It has been for twenty
years past. The prospects are that

This band is one Of the most fam
Gus in the world. II will be a great
musical treat if Honolulu people have
the opportunity Of listening to few
concerts given by this organization.
The following tells Of the bands tri-
umph on its first appearance during
its present tour of the United States:
washington Starr
The famous British Guards Band,
under the direction OF Lieut.. Dan God
frey, gave the first concert of its Amer
lean tour at the Columbia theater yes
terday afternoon at i:15 O'Clock, at
tracing to that playhouse an audience
large in numbers, kindly disposed to-
ward the Britishers and yet withal crit
ical, providing there should be any
thing to critiCise. Before half Of the
program had been given, however. 1t
was plainly evident that there was no
room for criticism except of the favor
able kind, and those In attendance de-
voted their energies toward making
their applause into continuous Ova-
ton. This applause was first started
when Lieut.. Godfrey raised his baton
in front of his beautifully uniformed
band and the instruments broke into
the magnificent strains of The Star
Spnngled Banner" The audience rose
as one man.
Lieut.. Dan Godfrey comes of race
famous in the British army. His faith
er before him was eminent as a band
master; his brother, Charles Godfrey,
Is band master of the Blues" his two
sons, Fred Godfrey and Dan Godfrey,
Jr., are both leaders Of famous mill
tary bands, while Dan Godfrey him
self Las for forty years conducted the
band OF Her Majesty's Grenadier
Guards. At the state drawing rooms
at Buckingham Palace, the levees at
Marlborough House at royal weddings,
the Lord Mayors procession and at the
great historic events happening
throughout the greater period of the
Queens reign, Godfrey's music has
been a prominent feature. For his SER
vices TO military music in the British
army he has been raised TO the rank OF
Lieutenant of Guards a distinction
never before or since conferred upon
any other band master. At Earls Court,
the Imperial Institute, the Fisheries
Exhibition, the Crystal Palace fetes
and the round OF yearly festivities con-
tinually going on in London, Dan God
frey and his band are certain fixtures.
His reputation Is first among the
bandsmen OF the world.
