more palatable character were
served. Some Of the young women
who participated in the affair reversed
their appearances to the extent of re-
versing their waists and skirts and
wearing false faces on the backs of
their heads and combing their hair
down over their faces. They wore
dresses so long that it was unnecessary
to reverse their feet.

CATTLE-There was not a heavy run of
cattle here today, but still the receipts were
about normal for a Friday. The supply
for the week is about the same as II was
for last week, and also for the same week
Of last year. There was an active demand
this morning for all the better grades. so
hat 1t did not take long for sellers to
dispose of what they had on hand.
A good proportion of the offerings of this
morning consisted of beef steers, and the
quality was better than 1t has been of
late. Cattle sold as high as $6.15 and $40,
which are the highest prices paid in some
ious for both the good cattle and also the
medium grades, so that the market was
active and firm all around.
The COW market continued active today
and the prices paid were fully as good as
they were yesterday. As a general thing,
however, there was not much change In
values. The good stun continued in the
best demand but while that was true the
Gamers and medium grades were better
sellers than they were a few days ago, and
in a good many cases the prices paid
looked a little stronger.
There was very little variation today in
the market for bulls, veal calves and stays.
Anything good sold freely at firm prices.
The grades were not In as good
request, but still they brought steady
prices.
There were only a few stockers and feed
a good demand from the country all the
week sellers had no trouble In disposinE
Of what they had at steady prices. This
prevented the slump In values that usually
lakes place at the close OF the week. Rep
