Each church will hold three weeks of spectal evangelistic services, and the pastors are urging the members of their con- gregations not to make any social en- gagement during the term of the meet- ings. They will begin about the secoud week in October. Each pastor is to act as hie own evangelist, that being the idea suggested by the General Confer- enee .

A de- cided firmness in lambs was also report- ed An improvement iu the market for ex- porters' was noticeable, and several loads changed hands at fairly satisfactory prices.

Business at the market of the Union Stock Yards Company was moderate in volume, but active in tone to -day. The prices of butchers' and exporters' des- criptions of cattle were strong at the quotations given below.
