LIVE STOCK WET
SHOWS LITTTE CHANGE
The Portland Union Stock- Yards
Company reports as follows:
Receipts for the week were: Cattle
529; Calves 67; Hogs 1878; Sheep
7368 and horses 2.
There was little or no change in
the cattle market. In the face of very
short receipts prices were stationary.
because of the fact that large killers
had filled their pens. Butcher cattle
sold at prices that might be consider
ed a shade stronger than the week
previous, but steers were steady. ,
The hog market was steady to slow
with tops 5 cents lower than last
week. The demand was active and
there was an early clearance through
out. On acount of heavy receipts there
was a soft sheep market. Prices were
off to some extent but good1 sheep
brought fairly good prices. An un
usual condition prevails in the sheep
supply this year because of early
green food. Fat sheep are coming for
ward at a season when as a rule
there is nothing of the class obtain
able in the country.
IN SPRING-LIKE COLORS.
A folded bonnet of fine straw is pic
tured in this drawing. The shape has
the effect of a broad band laid
around the head and held at the back
with bunches of delicately shaded
grapes. The straw turns back about
the face in a narrow rever and is of
a delicate shade of green. Laid over
the band of straw is a wide band of
heavy ecru lace. Springing from the
center of the grapes at the back is a
stiff aigrette also of ecru. This makes
an unusually beautiful color combin
ation and truly springlike. The deli
cate green of the straw is repeated
in the shades of the grapes and their
foliage.

WILL 8E DIVIDED
COLUMBUS, O., May 20. In a cli
max of bitterness the personal cam
paigns of President Taft and Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt came to an end
tonight and left the shrewdest polit
ical observers guessing the outcome
of the state preference primary elec
tion tomorrow.
The most definite forecast any un
prejudiced prophet would make is
that the delegation af 48 will be divid
ed pretty evenly. At the same time
they say they will not be surprise at
anything that may happen.
On the Democratic side the appear
ances are Governor Harmon, "favor
ite son," will get the bulk of the dele
gation; with possibly 10 or a dozen
going to Governor Wilson. Governor
Harmon's friends probably will win
control of the home state convention
and get the home state indorsement
for their candidate. -. -
