KANSAS ClTY, December, Q, lJII. Cattle received here this week g. 900, last week 30, ,4r0, same week last year B 200 This Is the second week of light marketing of cattle here, and the market has developed a terrible thirst. Prices were ten higher on most kinds yesterday, and again to-day, and unusual procedure fnr the slim run that arrives on Frldiy. Total gain for the week is 25 to 30 cents on killing grades, and sl0rkerS and feeders are selling high. Dealers believe the good market will draw out a larger run next week, but the trade should be able to handle increased supplies without hurting prices. Good heavy steers have sold at $7.50 to $825 this week. some toppy light steers at $8.5O, and 1O50 steers to. day good enough to bring $825. Nothing of the Christmas variety has been here this week, though dealers expect some on that kind next week. Pre-. dictiOns are made that nine fifty or ten dollars will be paid for a few loads next week. Sometimes there Is an overproductiOn of fancy Christmas beeves. and in such years they sell at small margin above the general market. Last year was an example of that con- dition. But few believe there is too many fancy heeves this year. Oil mill cattle are running from the mills this week, and selling at $5.OO to $580 Fair to good Okla homa COWS sold in the quarantine division yesterday at $4 l5, 9 to 40 cents highter than len days ago Colorado beef steers sold at $5 70 to day, l1l9, as high as any time this year. The general market Is closing the week at the highest poin' of the year.
 Llheral runs of hogs continue to arrive at the market, and quality IS improving Run here this week amounts to 79.l00, last week 6t, 800, same week last year 38,S00. Prices have been lower this week but the market has the same spring pit, and sales yesterday and to day are to 10 higher each day. Top to day Is S6 35, bulk of sales $5.8O to $6.30. The feature this week is the improved demand for light hogs, and the relative strength displayed hy them. They sell to- day at $570 to $6 20.
 Sheep received this week 33 300, last week l9.500, same week last year 28, 200. Prices declined the first of the week, but the market has been higher yesterday and to. day. Lambs reached $625 to day, highest prices paid in several weeks. Light yearlings are worth $500, wethers $4.00, ewes up to s3.50. While the market is cratic to a certain extent, strength Is plainly apparent, and dealers gen. erally expect higher prices head.

deep. Many Of them were the
modern dreadnoughts of the larg-
est type. 1t was amusing to
watch the little motor boats be-
longing to the fleet as they shot
to and from the landing place
of the town carrying provisions
and detachments of sailors. Fal-
mouth was positively alive with
sailorboys. From our sail boat we
watched the thousands of sailors
line up on the pier and then board
the motor boats to go back to the
battleships. When we went a.
shore we saw the naval police in
different sections Of the city
rounding up the sailors to get
them aboard ship. Many tried
to desert and heard that some
few succeeded in eluding their
watchers. | saw one sailor run
ming as fast as he could down the
street with perhaps five or six of
his mates in hot pursuit. They
caught him and brought him back
to the pier. 1t was fully nine
o'clock and still a delightful
twilight when the last motor boat
chugged its way from the pier
to the fleet. There were hun
dreds of us watching who were
sorry to see them go, they kept
the town so alive. Many maid
ems, who had sung with gusto
Every Nice Girl Loves a Sailor, "
looked after them with tears in
their eyes. That night the fleet
hauled up their anchors and
steamed away.
| took many delightful steamer
jaunts from Falmouth to points
of interest along the coast. |

When the festive week had closed

a revisit of eighteen days before
| should sail for home on. the
good ship Olympic. | wanted to
see the beauties of Cornwall in
the summer. The days passed too
fast for me. How enjoyed the
walks into the country where
hedge rows were now full of the
delicious sweetness of the honey
suckle. With what pleasure too
did l wander along the Cornish
rocky coast, the most fascinating
ruggedness | have seen any
where. With a cousin who has

hours in Falmouth Bay and skirt
ing for miles along the coast
and up the beautiful tidal rivers.

five great fighting machines in
all came to Falmounth and lay
at anchor in the bay. From my

tainly were a sight newer to be
forgotten as they lay in five
long lines facing the shore. The
sea front was thronged with
spectators from near and far.
At night we watched them for
hours talking to each other by
means of their electric signals.
My cousin and l spent two or
three hours one morning sailing
around these monsters of the

Thursday Night, Dec. 7

went to the Lizard and Kynance
Cove where the great rocky cliffs
on the seashore are composed en-
tirely of serpentine rock beauti-
fully veined and colored. 1t is
difficult to find the correct words
to describe the beauty of this
place. For another excursion my
cousin and | went by train to
Penzance and thence on top of a
coach to the Lands End. En-
route we stopped an hour to visit
Logan Rock, a mass of granite
weighing 70 tons but SO poised
that it can be rocked. At about
noon we reached Lands End,
the most westerly point in Eng
land, a granite promontory, 60 to
100 feet in height. The view
from this cliff is both varied and
imposing. Both rocks and sea
looked treacherously wild.
To say that | was loath to leave
Cornwall and my relations there
is putting it mildly. But every
thing must have an end, so |
realize that my sojourn abroad
draws quickly to a close and be-
fore | know it | am standing at
the dock atSouthampton, standing
before a great black wall, which
is the Olympic" " This monster
leviathan of the deep is so large
that it battles one in his attempt
to comprehend it's greatness.
One asks himself the questions;
How can they make this great
bulk float and after it is foated
how can they make it move itself?
When everyone was on board
and | heard the great whistle
thunder its signal for departure
| at once took the elevation to
the top deck, seven stories up
from where | was standing, to
watch the operation of getting
off. " | noticed four little tug
boats take their places, two to
pull at the Olympic's bow and
two topush at the giants stern.
Slowly the great bulk began to
shift away from the wharf where
hundreds Of people were crowded
to watch her departure and wave
adieus to relations and friends
The tugboats seemed like min
lature men annoying a sleeping
Titan. However they succeeded
in moving the giant and waking
him too. | noticed the water
grind and turn at the Olympic's
stern and | knew that the great
propellers were now at work.
What turning, what a churn-
ing of water and mud. 1t re-

thing more charming than to sit

the mirrored sea her path of
glowing splendor?
1t was night when we first
deserted the flashing darts from

shores Of dear U. S. A. 1t was
with both happiness and sadness

brilliant lights of Coney Island

we were routed out early to make
ready for the landing. At the
breakfast table we said goodbye
to many ship board acquaint-
ances. The little tugs came out
to meet US, pushed their noses
against one great side and grad
ually got us to the wharf.
