nifty of the occasion, Miss The,ms
Parker and Robert Henry GiliarJ
Smart were married last night at one
of the most notable functions in the
history of the islands.
Picturesque in lavishness Of care
and taste, the wedding arrangement
were remarkable for beauty of ensem
bic and detail, and the pretty romance
between the Hawaiian heiress and the
young Virginian, begun but e. few
months ago on board trans-Pacific
liner, was strikingly emphasized in
the ceremony that made the two
young people man and wife.
Room . Great Bower.
Miss Parker's beautiful living-room,
thirty-eight by forty-five feet. was dec
GRATED in eucalyptus boughs, typical
OF the foliage Of the ranch villsge.
Every door and window of this room
was outlined with eucalyptus, and
from the room every piece of furni-
ture had been removed with the ex-
ception of the plano. Down the CEN
tire of the great room, leading from
the room where the bridal party was
assembling, ran carpeted aisle, car
ried the length of the room to the al
ter. The altar had been arranged for
the ceremony with splendid taste. The
background Of the altar was decorated
in smilax, maiden hair, white asters
and tulle. The altar itself was COW
cred with cloth Of silver with a rich
piece s0f Byzantine lace, an heirloom
OF the brides uncle, Ernest Parker.
A handsome candelabra of Shefiield

plicity and antique state to the ef-
feet.

KANSAS CITY STOCK
MARKET.
o 100000 oooooooooo {
Rickart, Correspondent

~
Kansas City Stock Yards, Jan. s.
The first week of the new year was
very satisfactory to cattle sellers, but
brought walls of displeasure from kill
ers. The market was strong all week,
closing 10 to % higher for tine week
on all kinds, and prices ruling are
about one dollar higher than year
ago Fed cattle are selling at money
making prices to feeders, which is all
that anyone can ask, and the lack of
quality is what is worrying the killers
The tendency is to market stuff as
early as possible all over the field, and
finished cattle are going to be scarce.
The best here today sold at $7.40, bulk
of fed steers at $500 to $500. Severe
winter weather causes railroads to
hesitate about accepting orders for
cars, a fact that held receipts down to-
day The run here is 5000 head, and
Chicago has only half as many cattle
today as were counted on at the end
of last week The market is 10 to Is
higher here today on steers, and
strong to 10 higher on other killing
cattle. Native COWS sell up to $5.75,
and bulls to $525. yeals $500. Oil Mill
cattle sold at $5.S5 to $500 here today,
best prices paid for them this season.
Light steers from Shawnee, Okla, sold
at $540. Protracted zero weather,
with heavy snow, is causing uneasiness
among cattlemen, and predictions are
made that considerable stuff will be
run to market Immediately from dis
tricts where feed is short In that
event, stockers and feeders will sell
lower. They are no better than steady
today, at $40O to S5.75, a few leshy
feeders at $500 to 1925.
The hog market is nervous affair,
ten cent changes being the rule from
day to day for the last ten days. 1t is
10 higher today, following couple of
similar markets last week, and tops
got up to $6.45 today, bulk of sales
$500 to $6421a. The run was esti-
mated at 5000 for today, but only 6OO0
got in, hence strong finish. The ex-
pected shortage of hogs has not de-
yeloped as yet, local receipts last
week running $4,000 more than same
week last year, and receipts at the
five western markets for the week ag-
gregating 100000, as compared with
287, 600 same week last year.
Sheep and lambs advanced % to IS
cents last week, and are up again to-
day, 10 to 25 cents. Colorado stuff
started to market last week, and the
first from that section arrived To-Day,
Monte Vista lambs selling at $6.75 and
$3.50, and ewes at $4.10. Some Kan
sas lambs brought $500, which was
the top, and some Colorado ewes
brought $4.15 Wethers are worth up
Ito $3.50, and yearlings $3.50. Good
feeding lambs sold Friday at $500.
Run is 5000 here today, and a good run
lis expected balance of the week.
Prices may soften a little but the un-
dertone is strong
