Partisan dress stun novelties
crowd the big space set apart for
them, a profusion of indescribable
beauty. Bars and stripes and pinches
of color thrown on with random reg
ularity; loops and knots and tufts
and tangles of silky gayness on
grounds that bring out every chang
ing tint. An ever varying
of designs. Odd looks and good looks
never before odder or better. Too
full of life and sparkle to fall out Of
favor-Jack Porter.

Shoes that will stand the strain of
leap-frog sport or of marble playing,
and both of these diversions come
as certain as school days begin. Give
the boys a chance to romp, and the
girls as well. Don't keep them from
enjoying life for fear they break
their shoes. Buy the right shoes at
Their light place and save money on
that score.-Jack Porter.

Joe Bounds will make you a
nice fitting suit for very little

Are you a tenderfoot?"-not in
the wild western sense. but in the
sense of having tender feet. If you
are, we want to fit your next pair of
shoes for you. There's a great deal
in the way a shoe is first put on.
and the way the foot settles into it.
If it is tight where it should be and
loose where it should be there is
very little trouble. We make a study
of these things.-Jack Porter.

Market Letter.
Kansas City, Mo-,
Sept. 21, 1903.

Sept. p, 1903.
Special Correspondence to Rscord.
Cattle receipts at Kansas City
last week were 71,400, including
5000 calves. This was the
largest weeks receipts of the
year, but $4,000 head short OF
same week last year, which was
the record week at Kansas City,
Grass cattle, of course, formed
most OF the supply. Wintered
western beef cattle sold Is to %
cents lower, and stockers and
feeders, owing to the frost scare,
ana consequent timidity on the
part of some of the country buy
ers, lost 10 to 20 cents. How
ever, the movement was the
largest of the year, at $50 cars,
and now that the weather has
turned warm, and it is plain
that corn was affected very lit
tie by the frost, dealers expect a
larger and more satisfactory
business in the immediate future.
Fat westerners sold mostly from
$4.0O to $4.75, she stuff 1926
to 1926 largely, with some sales
OF heifers on up to$3.55. West
ern stockers and feeders brought
$500 to 1915, with most sales
from $3.45 to $500. A drove
of 936 pound New Mexican feed
ers sold Wednesday at $40,
and some Colorado 1000 pound
steers brought 30 rs same day.
Choice light veal calves sold
higher, and brought up to $500.
Run to-day is Is, 1000 head, and
market is slow, but prices are
mostly steady. The only bear
feature to-day was lower reports
from Chicago, but with good de-
mand here, and moderate supply
for this season, majority OF
sales were steady.
Sheep run continues less than
demand, and market gained Is
to 25 cents last week. The de-
mand from country feeders is
extraordinary, but packers were
also greedy for supplies, and
added a big % cents to mutton
prices, while feeders are only 10
to Is cents higher. Western
wethers now bring 1885 for
yearlings, and feeding wethers
are worth $40. Lambs brought
$500 on various days last week
but to day, with a run of 10000
head, prices are 10 to Is cents
higher, on both sheep and lambs
and the latter brought 1913,
top price recently for westerners.
Feeding lambs bring around 81,
and ewes $2.75 to 1926, the
last price for selected young
ewes.
Trade in range horses was linn
ted by the supply, and sales were
satisfactory. The season is now
getting late for range horses,
and dealers advise shippers to
figure on lower prices.

A Remarkable statue.

Some years ago q melodrama was be-
ing performed in a country theater, the
chief actor in which had made himself,
from his naughty and overbearing con-
duct. disliked by all. In the last scene
he was supposed to visit the tombs of
his ancestors. In the center of the
stage upon marble pedestal stood the
statue of his father. A heavy fold of
drapery covered the figure. Enter Al
bert, who thus addressed the statue:
IL am here once again to gaze upon
those features which in life so often
looked on me with tenderest affection.
Father, thy mourning son now comes
to pay thee alteration. Let me remove
the veil which from the vulgar gaze
shields the beloved image of a once
dear parent
Off went the drapery, and, behold,
the father stood upon his head! The
effect cannot be described. 1t was cleo
trio. The shouts of laughter which fol-
lowed the mistake of the super eff
feetually put an end to the scene, which
changed to the next as quickly as pos
sible amid the jeers Of the audience,

Marshfield, Ore, Oct. 21.-The

and in a minute or two slid off the
reef and began to sink Captain Nc

Of saving the ship, speedily had the
boats lowered. One of the boats that
got away from the ships side loaded
with part of the crew and some of the
passengers was capsized as soon as it
cleared the ships side, and when last
seen was floating away without liv.
ing soul aboard. The captains boat,
with about eighteen aboard, succeeded
in clearing. but was also capsized, and
only seven were able to get back to
the boat. They consisted of Captain
Mcintyre, John Reimer, Emmanuel
Passominos, w. l.. Wilson, L. Baker;
Guy Bent and Albert Bale. They
reached Port Oxford Monday night. A
lifeboat, on which the following en-
barked, succeeded in reaching shore
in the afternoon: Charles Bruce.

The survivors suffered much from
exposure and Captain Mcintyre is con
fined to his bed.
