Hogs opened 5 to 10 lower, but
the trade settled down to a 10 to

mand is so strong, however, that
no break can be enforced under
existing supply conditions.
Sheep and lambs are in moder-

AN ACT OF KINDNESS.

The death of Mrs. V. DOlecheck
was a particularly sad one and her
father, John Redetzke, then de-
cided that he would Immediately
make a division of property that
the rest of the children might en-
JOY it, so he gave deeds to his
children that amounted to about
$120,0OO.00. Even though the
family was well-to-do, Mr.. Redetz-
Ike was Saddened at the thought
that he had not given them part
of his riches. Mr.. Redetzke con-
gregated his children at Mr.. Hart
mans office and after the deeds
were made out he passed around
the circle and presented each one
with a deed emitting them to a
liberal share of his property.
Love and affection will trans
fer a piece of property but Mr..
Redetzke made his contract more
binding by requiring each one to
give him one dollar. He retained
GAO acres of land besides other
property.-HoiSington Dispatch.

MARKET REPORT.

Kansas City Stock Yards, Nov.
23,-The sharp advance Monday
of last week was held till the close
Of the week on all grades of cat
tie except medium and common
steers. The restricted opening in
Chicago and St. Louis resulted in
an unstable demand at those
points, with uneven and lower
markets, as no stock was permit
ted to be shipped out, and the de-
mand was found unsatisfactory
without the Steadying element of
the order buying trade. Outside
order buying, which is now CEN
tered at Kansas City on account of
existing regulations, proved to be
the main prop of the market here.
Some orders from eastern killers
were carried over to this week.
Receipts today are $4,000 cattle
here, market on killing grades 10
to 20 lower, StockerS and feeders
at a StandStill. A report that two
sick calves had been discovered
at the Wichita stock yards, and
the closing of that market to the
StOcker and feeder trade till it is
found what is the nature of the
disease, was sufficient to post
pOne transactions in StockerS and
feeders here, although some bids
Is to so lower were made. The
Wichita case is not regarded SER
iOuSly here, except as to its effect
on the demand for StockerS and
feeders, as every sick COW now
gets attention from inspectors
looking for foot and mouth di-
seaSe symptoms. Prime steers

GIFT OF HOUSE TO
. Be SILVER SERVICE
Legislators to Send Tray, Can.
dIesticks, and Several Other
Smaller Pieces.

The House of Representatives has Sc.
lccted its gift for Miss Eleanor Ran.
dolph Wilson. 1t is a splendid service
OF silver. consisting of massive tray
with embossed edges and delicately
engraved center, the entire tea service
Of dull finished silver, heavily carved,
two handsome candelabra, seven
branched. and several smaller pieces.
The committee intrusted with the re-
sponsibility of making the selection of
gift for tn, House consisted of Con-
Sressmen Mann, chairman; Lloyd of
Missouri, Page of North Carolina,
Doremus of Michigan, Burke of South
Dakota, and Chandler OF New York.
The service will be on exhibition after
today at Shaw & Browns, on F street.
Many other gifts have been ordered
from local jewelers., but great secrecy is
observed in the matter.
Secrecy seems to be the keynote of
the entire wedding program. The only
official news that the White House has
given out Is that the marriage viii take
place or May Z. Neither the time, the
place. nor any of the details can be Of
ficially learned. but the friends OF Miss
Wilson are agreed that the ceremony
will probably take place I'm the Blue
married to President Cleveland.
Miss Wilson has been heard to express
her dislike of the cold and formal East
Room. and the small number of guests
who are to be invited will no more than
fill the Blue Room. The Invitations
have not yet been issued, and rumor has
II that they will take the form OF per-
sonal notes or telephone calls.
President Wilson's brothers. Joseph
Wilson, Of Nashville, and John A
Wilson. with their wives and few
other relatives. will probably attend
the wedding. but there will he few
guests. compared to the
number who were here for the plar-
riage of Miss Jessie Woodrow Wilson
and Frances Bowes Sayre Mr. Nc

to the members Of his immediate

Look at Central Park In New
York. If Potomac Park were sit
uated as near the heart of Gotham,
or of Boston, as it is near the CEN
ter of Washington there would be no
question of its being deserted
Congressman Gardner's views will
give encouragement to other wash
ingtonians who have advocated some
plan of making Potomac Park more
accessible. At present the nearest
point of approach is by the cars
that pass the Bureau of Engraving
and Printing, and the Georgetown
end of the park only can be reached
by the F and q street line of the
Capital Traction Company.
Many also use the Alexandria line
in going to the concerts of the Ma
rlne Band, but that necessitates an
extra fare IL one must use another
car. line to get to the terminal of
the Washington. Alexandria. and
Mt. Vernon line.
Much complaint resulted from
holding weekly concerts of the Ma
ine Band in Potomac Park. That
custom was inaugurated during
President Taft's term. Few but
passing automobilists patronfzed the
concerts. The concerts given at the
Capitol and at the White House
drew thousands of listeners.
