the Misses Nathalie and Laura Barney.
Mrs. Barney also exhibits Il portrait
OF Mrs. james Brown Potter and ono
Of herself. The question tina arises
Ia how did the artist pose for her own
portrait? Simply by taking her place
at the Side Of a mirror and putting
mo easel in front II her These four
portraits represent only a portion of
alrs' Barncy'3 work this winter. She
lives with a daughter In Mollcre's old
mansion. near the EcoIc des Bcaux
Arts. and rises every morning with
tho dawn. When not working at her
daughters house she paints in tho
Nolorossi studio. In the Boulevard
Alontparrnasse, Prior TO the opening
OF the Salon Mrs. Barney will hold an
exhibition of her own works.
Ono of the most beautiful portrafts

OF French Artists viii be that OF Mrs.

SHEEP-Trade in sheep and lambs had
a strong undertone, and the big end of the
run consisted OF sheep. Offerings included
several strings of prime western stock,
no very thorough test of extreme quota

Western lambs sold up as high as $685.,
this sale indicating a limit or near-hmit
Of $3.50 for choice Mexicans. The shorn
lambs market is still on q narrow basis,
OF course. but recent business has been

malS Freshly shorn lambs have been
moving around S5.25a5.60. Heavy offerings,
still in the fleece, are quotable at or near

Demand for the better classes OF sheep
was healthy from the opening, packers pro-
cent clearance of bulk in very good season.
Western ewes reached $500 on two or three
different occasions and Mexican ewes
topped at $50 Western wethers brought
as much as $3.50, a price which calls for
quality rather than handy weight IL
would probably command small premiums
over the weighty kinds that have claimed
credit for tops on most days lately.
Yearlings, either wooded or shorn, were
scarce. Some Mexicans from western Ne
braslSa feed lots arrived and sold at $5.75,
top Of the list. Good western yearlings
are wanted around $3.50.

Beef steers as compared with yesterday

HOGS-General conditions that were more
or less promising enabled sellers OF hogs
to obtain slightly higher prices for offer
inEs this morning. On butcher weights
Il was a strong nickel higher market, much
Of the i6.S quality OF yesterday going into
packers pens at $50. On lights the trade
showed a flat nickel advance, as this class
OF stock attracted more competition than
mixed OF heavy grades.
Receipts we're OF very fair volume, but
demand was reasonably broad and final
clearance was practically complete. Move
ment lacked life however, and Il was
well along toward midday before the bulk
had changed hands Shipping purchases
we're largely confined to bacon weights
and inquiry from this quarter was dis
eliminating and rather limited.
Long strings ranged at Sc 40d6.45. Lard
and rough packing loads had TO sell at
1876 and less, while choice light animals
reached $50. The latter price, II will be
noted, is a dime higher than yesterday
top, this peculiar phase OF the trade being
at least partly due to poor assortment Of
