Kansas City Market Letter.

Specidf TO the Tribune.
Kansas City, Mo-, Monday, June r.
Heavy cattle runs last week broke the
market Is to 80 cents. Prime cattle suf
fered least, and traders here are still
bullish on strictly dry lot stuff, but the
partly finished stuff, particularly slip
perry grass cattle are getting the full bon
eft of all declines. Run today is moder-
ate at 5000 head, and is light at other
points, market steady to shade better
on nearly everything. The stocker and
feeder situation last week was on a sep
arate basis from killing cattle, supply Of
these very small, and demand a little
better than previous week, prices aver
aging about steady. Farmers are busy
in the fields now, and will be while good
weather lasts, cultivating corn and har-
vesting wheat, so that no great demand
from the country is likely to develop
soon. However, with the increasing
good corn crop prospects, strong de-
mand for high grade stockers is sure to
follow closely. Colorado and western
cattle have been represented lightly the
last week, but a good run has come. from
the Panhandle country. Killing steers
from Rocky Ford sold at $500 to s5.15.
bulls s3.4o, train of Oregon stockers,
750 pounds, at s3.40 to $500, feeders
$3.50. Panhandle offerings were of all
varieties, stock calves at $500 to $3.50,
1000 to 110o-pound feeders around $500,
the first train of cows of the season at
52.G5, at the bottom of the decline, veals
$500 to $3.50. j.. A. RIcKARr,

Church Dedicated.

The new Christian church, the first
Christian church to be erected in Elbert
county. located six miles southwest of
Ebert was formally dedicated last Sun
day IN the presence Of a large audience
Rev. o. Il. Hamilton, evangelist, of Des
MONIES, Iowa, preached the dedicatory
sermon, taking for his text "The Gospel
OF Christ. At the conclusion of the ser
mon 1t was announced that there was
an Indebtedness of about fifty. five dol
lars against the church and subscrip-
tions were asked for. This sum and
more was subscribed in few minutes.
Following the raising of funds to pay
of the church debt an adjournment was
announced for basket dinner, which was
served under n canvas stretched in the
rear OF the church, and to which gem
eral invitation was issued.
The afternoon services begun at 2:3O

panies Evangelist Hamilton and assists

ated by the large audience present.
Rev. Mr.. Tyler, pastor of the South
Broadway Christian church, Denver.
presented the church with beautiful
bible.
The church organization which is res
ponsible for this new edifice was organ
lied about six years ago, during which
time preaching services have been held
regularly once month in the "James'
school house, located near the church
The movement for the new building was
instituted by Rev. 7. L. Thompson, for
mer pastor, about three years ago. About
a year later the foundation was laid and
the building has progressed slowly
but steadily since that time, AS the funds
were forthcoming with which to pur-
chase material
The trustees of the church are J. e.
Dittemore, j. A. Melburn and j. ID.
Blakely. The building committee was
composed of the trustees. The building
is a frame, 2Sx48 feet, with 10-foot
basement. 1t is well built, of good ma
terial, and cost as it now stands about
81 200, considerable labor and material
being donated. The basement is unfin-
ished. Rev. A. jay Garrison of Denver
has been pastor for the past two years.
