feeders and medium quality
stockers bringing 3.75 to 4,S0
while the palmer grades sell at
3.25 to 3.75.
There is nothing discouraging
to report in the Southern divi-
sion; prices are still advancing.
While the net advance for the
week is only about 10 cents per
hundred, the snappy tone of
the market from day to day is
very encouraging. Perhaps
the medium weight good quality
steers are the most active, but
there was a strong demand that
covered all classes from prime
heavies to canning cows. The
top for the week is 5.65 with
several lunches selling at 5.25
to $50. Corn and meal cattle
are selling at 4.50 to 5.65 cows
and heifers $50 to 4.75; Gamers
$50 to $50.
Hog arrivals continue light
and the quality of the supplies
only fair. The market has fluctu-
ated but quotations today show
10 to 90 cents advance over last
weeks prices. Yesterday (Fri
day)was the high day of the week,
top heavies selling up to 6.57t
and values ranged from 4.70 for
common lights to 6. 57t for fancy
heavies.

Kansas City Stock Report.
Kansas City Stock Yards,


Kansas City Stock Yards,
March 8, 1902.
The market for beef steers
during the past week was again
a very satisfactory one. Very
few prime heavy weights were
received, in fact not enough for
the requirements of the trade
and sales of this class of stock
we're quickly made at irregular
ly higher prices. Light
butcher weights were in the
best demand and sold at the
high point of the season. De-
sirable cows and heifers also
met with brisk inquiry and top
py stuff sold at 6 cents per
pound. Choice export ship
ping steers $40 to 6.75; fair to
good 5.25 to 6.25, choice to fair
butcher cows and heifers $50
to 600; Gamers $50 to 800;
bulls 1925 to 4.75.
Well bred stockers and feed
ers are in active demand; all of
the heavy feeder offerings being
quickly picked up, at higher
values; but common off colored
light weight stuff is slow sale
at slightly lower prices. Choice
native steers weighing $50 to
100 pounds are selling from
4.65 to 5.25 with medium weight

Frost, Snow and Frieses

r A young man in this town by the name of Frost thinks he has some thing coming to him on account of 9 very disappointing love affair. It seems from the evidence that his heart was melted by the charms of maiden named Snow. They were, in fact, schoolmates, and from the first early season of their attachment Frost looked. forward to the time when he could call her his own. But new per son arrived on the scene by the name of Friese. Miss Snow began to yield to the warmth of the latter's wooipg, and before long MT. Frost was informed that her heart had grown cold to him, she loved Friese only. And now Frost thinks it is a cold deal, and is praying that grace may be given him to play Friese out. But in the meantime Miss Snow has fallen into another,s arms. MT. Frost's friends advise him to let the matterqdrift along Frost says he deep enough in misery now. rtland Oregonian.

BRYAN IN MEXICO.
Speaks to People on Silver Question of
 That Country.


 Mexico City, Dec 27.-The papers all comment on the arrival of w. J. Bryan here, but it is understood that his visit lis merely one of pleasure and recrea- ton. He is accompanied by his wife and children. Speaking on the silver question. Mir Bryan said:
 While India has suspended the coin age of silver, she still uses silver as her money, and England coins a large mum -ber of the rupees annually for India s needs. If Mexico were to adopt the gold standard it would reduce still fur .ther the price of silver, and if Mexico, in spite of being a large producer of silver, were to discard that metal as sthe standard money. it is not improba- gbIe that India and China might be led by the same influence to do the same thing. While this is only speculation, it Is a possibility that must be consid- cred: an addition of, 10000, GOO of peo- aple to the present gold using population Of the world would cause an enormous demand for gold over and above the present demand on the purchasing power of gold, but 1t could hardly fail sfo materially reduce prices and en- 5hance the yalueaof money and fixed iIl- Hestmentss

ORDAINED TWENTY-FIVE YEARS
Rev Father Shelley Has Spent Guar

 ter Century in the Ministry.
 Twenty-Five years ago last Sunday the Rev Father Shelley, pastor of the Sacred Heart church, was ordained to the priesthood. For more than quar- ter of a century Rev. Father Shelley has preached the doctrine of Christ, has followed in the footsteps of the apostles. Of untiring zeal. of tireiess energy, of indefatigable perseverance,, he has labored long and ably and sac cessfully. in Gods holy mission. Proud should hebe as he looks back upon his many years of profitable labor in the service of God. Always unassuming immature, the manner in which he wit messed the coming of his silver jubilee was q noble proof of that modesty, rare in people of this time. Without any. ostentatious celebration the day was spent by the cherished pastor of the Sacred Heart church. Outwardly it was the same as any other day to him, and but few people in the city knew that last Sunday was the twen- ty.-fifth anniversary of his ordination to the priesthood
 Tie Rev Father Shelley was born in Winsted. At the suggestion of the late Rev Father Leo he entered St Bonaventure's college, Allegheny, N. Y., where he successfully completed a course Of studies and was ordained to the priesthood. Shortly after his or dination he was appointed curate of the parish of Birmingham, where he remained for several years. Later he was transferred to Cromwell, where he remained for four years, liquidating part of the church debt and gaining the good will and esteem of his parish toners. On November 19, 1897, he was appointed pastor of the Sacred Heart church in this city to succeed the Rev Hugh Treanor, who was promoted to the pastorate of St Patrick's church. Norwich. For the past five years he has labored faithfully and earnestly among the parishioners of that church, making for himself on account of his sterling qualities a warm place in their affections. During the five years he has paid much Of the indebtedness on the church property, a surprising amount, considering that no fairs en- tertainments nor lectures were given by the parish during that time. -
