PICNIC FOR PENNSYLVANIANS
ornament Organization To
Formed in Topeka.


Plans for a picnic of the former
Pennsylvanians who are now residents
OF Kansas were started at a meeting
OF seventeen ex-Pennsylvanians held
at the Chamber of Commerce at noon
today.
1t is probable that a permanent or

pointed to investigate the advisability
or chartering the organization.
OFFICERS were elected today, as fol-
lows: President. r. r. Baer; vice
president, DR.. Z. J. Kulp; secretary,
J. X Bair; treasurer, J. A. Wallace
wallace was treasurer of a similar
society organized some fifteen years
ago. He informed the Pennsylvanians
today that there still remained in the
treasury of that defunct organization
some So in surplus funds left after the
holding of a picnic.
An executive committee consisting
Of the officers named and Dali Thomp-
son was appointed, to decide on the
date on which the next picnic of the
association shall be held. Thompson

more than 800 persons who were for
merly residents o. Pennsylvania and

DIR. K. A. DOUGLAS
 BOOSTED FOR PRESIDENT
 OF ARIZONA UNIVERSITY

That Dr. A. E. Douglas, professor of physics and astronomy at the uni versity and director of the Steward observatory, is the logical man to take the place of Dr. R. B. von KleinSmid. the retiring president, was the state ment made by Prof. Edgar Lucien Larkin, director of the Lowe astron- omical observatory, at Mount Lowe, California.
 This dean of American astronomers, who for 21 years has been daily con- tributor to a large syndicate of pa- pers, passed through Tucson after a visit to the west coast of Mexico. made as the guest of H. B. Titcomb. new president of the Southern Pacific de Mexico and the Arizona Eastern roads. As Professor Larkin was here be- tween trains, he said that he was un- able to crowd all the things he had to say about the Mexican west coast. in a few minutes conversation, and compromised by giving The Star an article he had written on certain phas- es of his Mexican trip.
 Of the university, Professor Larkin said:
 "In von KleinSmid the Arizona uni versity is losing an able president. can think of no one at this moment whom I believe would be better suited to the post than Dr. Douglas. He has practical mind that is we'll able to grapple with the many matters in higher instruction as we'll as the ad- ministrative end of a university. Dr. Douglas was with me for two months at Mount Lowe and in that time be- came very intimately acquainted with him. I believe him to be perfectly equipped to handle post of this i'm portance and the regents should give his selection long and serious thought before seeking elsewhere for a presi- dent"

LIVESTOCK AND
 RANGES IN ARIZONA
WOOL MARKET STEADY;
 SHOWING IMPROVEMENT

Buying of medium wool for the knitting yarn trade continues to be the leading feature of Boston's mar ket. Prominent among the transac- tions of this character has been a re- cent movement in Punta Arenas sos to 56s. Full particulars have not been made public, but it is reported that several million pounds have been taken over by manufacturers. Other medium wools, both South American and domestic, have been moved, mak- ing very large weeks turnover. Fine wools have been rather quiet, as man. ufacturers are waiting for further de- velopments in the New York goods market before stocking wool. London opened strong Tuesday, about to 10 per cent above the close of the last series. This confirms the strong up- ward trend of the market, as indicated by recent sales in Liverpool and Ant 'werp. Prices in the Boston market show very little change, though the market is very firm, and dealers would gladly lift prices. But for the fact that most manufacturers appear to have "dead line" beyond which they cannot go, the market ought to show an advance. This optimistic feeling has been strengthened by the results of last weeks government wool auc- tion, where over 97 per cent of the offerings were sold at high prices. Re- serve limits cut very little figure, as bidders were eager for wool and com petition was keen. The Australian auctions are to be resumed next Mon day, and an advance from previous quotations is expected. .-Bradstreet'

KANSAS CITY WEEKLY MARKET REPORT

Kansas City Stock Yards, Oct. IT. Though cattle receipts were liberal they were not up to those of last Mon- day. Trade in the best killing and stock and feeding grades was active at fully steady prices. The plain and ordinary kinds were slightly lower. There was considerable urgency in the demand for hogs. Prices were up 15 to 25 cents. Lambs were weak to 25 cents lower.
 Today's Receipts
 Receipts today were 35,000 cattle, 5000 hogs, 16,000 sheep, compared with 37,000 cattle, $500 hogs, and 16.000 sheep a week ago and 29,000 cattle, 1000 hogs, and 5000 sheep a year ago.
 Beef Cattle Steady
 No strictly prime full fed steers in any weight were offered. Good to choice steers were in active demand and fully steady and the best grades of cattle sold readily. The plainer classes moved slowly at the outset but later when moderate decline was es- tablished they began to move more freely. Killers are making large pur- chases, and there is good buying on shipping orders. Cows, heifers and calves were steady.
 St0ckers and Feeders Weak
 Demand for stockers and feeders continues active. The opening demand this week was for the better classes and plain and ordinary kinds sold slowly. Kansas is buying relatively fewer thin cattle than any other state. A good many buyers were here who wanted to get cattle laid in before any railroad tieup occurred.
 Hogs Higher
 Active demand from both shippers and packers cleared the hog pens early at 15 to 25 cents higher prices. The top price, $8.30, was paid for both medium and strong weight grades. The bulk of the offerings brought $775 to SS.25. Pigs sold at $7.50 to $8.25.
 Sheep and Lambs Lower
 Trade in sheep and lambs was act i've, but because of sharp declines in Chicago the market here was weak to 25 cents lower. Most of the western lambs sold at $8.25 to $8.40. Feeding lambs brought S6.75 to SIPS.
 Horses and Mules
 Trade in horses and mules was act i've at unchanged prices. Inquiry is increasing.
