Toronto, Aug. 25.—There was a li/t run at the cattle markets to -day, but business was fair, especially in butchers' cattle, for which there was a good de- mand. Choice butchers' cattle were sold readily at prides from $4.25, a few light exporters being bought for butchers' purposes up to as high as $4.70. There was a few very good loads of western cattle, butchers' offering, but the eastern cattle were not so good, and were a slower side at low prides. There was practically nothing doing in export trade owing chiefly to the fact that several Loads of export cattle shipped to Craw- ford & Co. by the Canadian Pacific were not delivered into the market until about 11 o'clock, when most of the buyers had left. There was a fair inquiry for light stookers and a few feeders at $2.75 to $3.75. In the sheep market the run was light and everything was sold, the market, on the whole, being firm. Export ewes were steady at $3.40 to $3.60. Lambs firm at $4.50 to $4.75. Hogs are steady and unchanged at $6.50 and $6.25. The total run was 45 loads, with 707 head of cattle, 323 sheep and lambs, 505 hogs and 24 calves. The arrivals at the Union Stock Yards, Toronto Junction, this morning were large. Up 'till 12 o'clock 120 carloads had arrived, including over 2,000 cattle, 600 sheep, 350 hogs and 25 calves. Prices were steady and heavy exporters sold from $4.30 to $5. Pieces for sheep and lambs were good, and the market was cleared.

An editor near Colster, Ind. T., got a cattle show and a concert mixed in making up, and now he has to keep in the dark. This is the way he did it: "The concert given by Robinson's most beautiful young ladies was highly appre- ciated. They sang in their charming manner winning the plaudits of the en- tire audience, who pronounced them the finest herd of Shorthorns in the country. A few are of rich brown color, but the majority are spotted brown and white The annual report of the Brussels Methodist church has been prmted. The first regular miuister was Rev. Jno.

Ontario Christian Endeavorers Meet at Stratford. • The 1903 Convention of the Ontario Christian Endeavor Union will assemble in Stratford, the classic city, on Tees - day, Wednesday and Thursday, Sept. 19-80 and Oct. 1. The Convention of 1900 was held in Guelph and notnce that time has the Convention been held in 'Western Ontario and a great deal of interest is centered with this meeting. Father Endeavorer Clark, the man that Canada gave to Christian Endeavor, is expected as is also the new general sec- retary, Von Ogden Vogt, and these men, coming, as they do direct from the firing line and with new enthusiasm gained at the great Denver International, the Con- vention promises to be very helpful and inspiriting to all who attend. Reduced rates have been secured on the Conven- tion plan and tickets will be good to go on Sept. 25th and return Oct. 5th and if 800 or more attend (which is more than likely,) the rates will be single fare for the round trip from all Ontario points to Stratford. wards Stockers 900 lbs Butchers'— Choice Medium Picked Bulls Rough Light stock bulls - Milk cows Hogs— Best Lights Sheep— Export Bucks....
