The high school boys, assisted by such
local talent as they were able to obtain
about town, gave a blsck-face enter
tainment at the assembly hall of the
high school building last Thursday and
Friday evenings for the benefit Of the
athletic association. As an amateur
minstrel performance it IVES first-cIass
and was given a generous patronage by
the public
The program consisted Of plantation
melodies. coon songs, dances, local hits,
etc, and evoked much merriment from
the audience. The receipts from the
sale OF tickets for the first nights en-
tertainment WAS approximately eighty
dollars. There was fairly good at
tendance the second night, but the a.
nancial results were less than At the
previous performance.

WEDNESDAY MUSICAL
CLUB TAInS
The Members of the Womens'
Federated Clubs and a Large
Number of Invited Quests with
Delightful Program.

A red letter event is social chronicles
was the entertainment given by the
Wednesday Musical Club At Eiks hall
yesterday morning to the members of
the various federated clubs Of Canon
City and Florence in commemoration
of Wsshington's birthday anniversary.
1t is doubtful whether Elks hall ever
contained larger assemblage OF ladies
than that which gathered there yester-
day, and. without disparagement of
previous entertainments, it may be
stated that no more artistic and de-
lightful program was ever rendered
within its walls than that given for
their delectation. Careful preparations
had been made for the guests by the
members Of the "Wednesday Musical
Club, and to their charming hospitality
was due much Of its success.
The hall was tastefully decorated
with flags and bunting. suggesting the
patriotic event to be celebrated, while
miniature cherry trees with candied
fruit stood upon the presidents stand
on serving tables and mutely told of the
childhood of him who in later years be-
came first in war first in peace and first
in the hearts of his countrymen." As
souvenirs of the occasion little hatch
cts, made Of celluloid and tied with q
bow OF red, white and blue ribbons,
were presented to each guest. which,
in many instances at least. will be cher
ished as q Of an event of more
than ordinary interest and pleasure.
Aside from a paper by Mrs DR.. Prem
tiss, on the history and the achieve
ments OF the German, Russian, Polish,
swedish and Bohemian schools of mu-
steal composition the program was an
instrumental one, seclectio,s being
played by Misses Dale and Briggs and
Mesdames Shoemaker, Friend, Eich-
horn and Stewart, from the compost
tious OF the best musical talent of the
countries described in Mrs. Prentiss'
paper. The "Wednesday Musical club
has been studying the products of the
Germsnic. Scandinavian, Muscovite
and Bohemian schools of music the
past year and it was eminently fitting
that il should entertain its guests with
selections from the music OF those ma
tions.
In addition to the Canon people
there was presen' dozen or fifteen
ladies from Florence, representatives
of the federated clubs Of that city.

and the Price Low.
KANSAS CITY, Sept 19.-Heavy
rains recently have kept down live
stock receipts this week, as railroads
have been unable 10 handle business
with any efficiency The market has
not, however, prOfted much by the
light run OF cattle, as buyers have as
q rule hesitated and made a slow
market, not knowing exactly what to
expect StOckers and feeders were
weak and slow most OF last week, and
again yesterday, mainly because OF
the unsatisfactory condition Of the fat
cattle market, but this class is selling
stronger today. There is no question
but what there is a large demand for
country grades Of cattle yet remaining
to be filled, and commission men are
advising parties who contemplate
buying stOckers and feedrs this fan
TO get them now, expecting them TO
be higher later in the season, account
| Of increasing demand
The cattle market today is strong
to a little higher, but is still a shade
| lower than a week ago on everything
except cows and she stuff generally,
| including Gamers, which rule Is to
/ IS cents higher. No choice steers have
been here yesterday or today; they
would sell at $3.50 to $500. the latter
the top price last week, although one
drove received a bid here Of $6.15, but
/ the owner forwarded them to Chica-
go, where they sold at $685.. Straight
grass sell at 1925 to $4.25, steers fed
on pasture up to $500 Grass cows
bring $2.40 to 1925, Gamers $1.75 to
$2.25- Calf receipts have been phe-
! nOmenal lately, largest on record at
this market for one week last week
at over $4,000 head, and largest for
one day today at $500 head. Veals
are little lower, but still bring up to
S6.25. stock calves IS to so cents low
er, at $3.50 to $500. Bulls bring $500
to $500, best feeders $3.50 to S4.2O,
medium feeders and stock steers $500
to 1856, common stock cattle $3.50 to
$500, stock cows and heifers $500 to
$2.75.
The hog market has reacted Is to
20 cents since the low time, middle Of
last week; market 5 higher today,
and closed strong, top $3.50, bulk
S5.35, light hogs up to $40, packers
and heavies leading the list. Still no
permanent strength is expected in the
market, but declines are rather look
ed for with increased receipts.
Sheep run has been small also, and
market not much changed from a
week ago. Best lambs sell at 1925
to 1915, a choice bunch possibly
800, wethers and yearlings S4.75 to
/ S5.25, ewes S4.15 to $3.50, feeding
wethers $435 to $3.50, lambs $3.50
! to $500, ewes 1915 to S4.25. Larger
/ receipts of westerns are expected later
| this week, and country buyers will
have a chance to secure any class de-
sired.
