er than usual, the Judging will be COM
pleted by tomorrow night or Friday

SHORTHORlS SELL
AT GOOD PRICES
-
And as With Herefords, Mime
sofa Buyers lake the Pick
Of Them.

Minnesota breeders showed up well
cattle show, one of the greatest ex-
hibits of its kind ever made In the
West. The BroWndale farm, Mime
apolis, won the junior sweepstakes and
I. H. Garfield secured fifth in the aged
herd class, while c. z. Clark captured
fourth in the young herd class.
The Shorthorn sale which commenced
Immediately after the judging was
completed is progressing to the entire
satisfaction of the members of the as
ISOLATION. One-half the fifty-four
head for sale We're knocked down yes
terday and the sale will be completed
this morning.
The Shorthorns went more quickly
than the Herefords, bearing out the
claim that the Minnesota farmer
knows this breed more intimately. The
average price yesterday was $500. The
top price for a COW was $495, while
the top bull price was $1.005.
The most gratifying feature of the
sale, as was true of the Hereford sale,
lies in the fact that the animals were
sold to Minnesota breeders and farm
ers. Only four of the sales made yes
terday were to spectators or foreign
breeders.
The closing awards of the show
made yesterday were:

PROTEST MADE ON
AWARD ON HORSES
Mclaughlin Bros. AreIndignant
at Failure to Get With the
Prize Winners.

The failure of Mclaughlin Bros. to
secure one of the prize ribbons in the
Percheron grand sweepstakes threat
ems the first trouble among the horse
exhibitors at the fair.
Judge Craig did not see in the Nc
Laughlin exhibit as much merit as he
was able to find in three other stables,
and the McLaughlins not only disagree
with his eyesight, but threaten to con-
test the award.
Durham, Fletcher & Cole, of Wayne,
ILL.,, drew the blue ribbon in the sweep
/ stakes; second, Louis Cochran, Craw-
louisville, Ind, and third, Crouch &
( Son, Lafayette, Ind. The McI.aughlins
say they are not in the habit of be-
ing left out of the winning bunch, but
the other horsemen say that the Nc
Laughlin exhibit this year is not up
to its usual form.

Golden and Silver Wedding.

The double celebration at the
home of Cyrus Russell, Nov. 10,
1903, was a most enjoyable oc-
casion to all present, That being
the golden anniversary of the mar
rage of Mr.. and Mrs. Cyrus Rus
sell and the silver anniversary OF
Rev. and Mrs. Edwin p. Reach.
The house was decorated with
yellow and white chrysanthemums
Light refreshments were served at
four o'clock. A large "bride's
Loaf bearing fifty wax candles,
the gift of a friend, occupied a
conspicuous place. After a SER
vice of song, the pastor, Rev. w.
S. Accomb read Psalms ninety and
twenty three, and prayer was
offered by the former pastor, Rev.
Thos. F. Marshall. Some remi-
niecences we're INDUCED in and
extracts read from letters of con-
graduation. A number of useful,
beautiful and valuable gifts were
received by both couples from
friends near and far. Those pres
ont outside of the immediate family
were: Rev. and Mrs. Acomb, Rev.
Thos. F. Marshall, DR.. and Mrs,
G. w. Farrar, Miss Mary Russell,
Mrs. E. S. Metcalfe, Miss Florence
DAILY, Howard Russell. But one
regret marred the pleasure of the
occasion, viz: that the frail health
of Mrs. Russell made it impossible
to receive the many friends whom
they desired to invite.

This is the warmest November l
ever saw in Missouri. In 1862,
forty-one years ago, in November
the Confederate army were in line
of battle near Orlean, Culpepper
county, Va, covering the retreat
of Gen. Lees army from the valley
of Virginia. Snow fell the entire
day; i think it was about the 4th
of November. The mems clothes
were frozen on them. In the eve
ming rain fell and the ground was
covered with ice. The soldiers
went into camp about seven o'clock
without tents; in a short time they
had fires built and wrapped them
selves in their blankets and were
soon sound asleep, forgetting for
the time the miserable day they
had spent. Sometimes | wondered
how they eve stood it, and you
seldom saw a soldier with a cold.
