Never before in the city's his- tory were so many thousands of people congregated to witness I a similar celebration. The f -pageant itself was gorgeous. The story of irrigation was real- .., istically depicted. The indus- B-"- tries resulting from irrigation '- were splendidly unfolded to view. The cjty's streets and build ings were a mass of colors, and long before the great column jfe&, i begnn its victorious march, SSKtaL: every point of vantage was oc 2SJ3f 'cupied by spectators..,,, The, jpt ?'" stretched in a thick mass over the entire course of the parade. T. . The windows of every building were black dus of humanity, . and the tops of the lower struc- - turea were lined with spectators. Boys climbed poles, awnings and balconies. The street cars stop- ' ped running, but their tops were t ; converted into review platforms by the populace. The festival ' r and pageant spirit dominated I . all and carried all before it. l The chariot of Lucile repre- f sented the Queen of irrigation ? and Empress of the Valleys, and Iis conceded to have made the best appearance in the pageant. The float was constructed from the standpoint gf accommodat- ing the queen and her maids of I ' honor, representing every county in the slate. The color scheme g; wa3 worked out with red, green I and gold, the state colors. St While the float was, in a meas- d ure, simple in contour, it was P beautiful in its simplicity and j - proportions. The queen, Miss W Lucile May Francke, sat in an K arbor at the rear of the float, E surrounded by her pages. The arbor, representing a crown, was 1 worked out in gold. The body of the float was in Roman columns, Mr a.n was worked out in silver, fittingly representing two of the groatest mineral resources of I the state. The maids of honor i sat along the sides of the char mf iot, between the Roman col- umns, each of which was tipped m with incandescent lamps. The M entire float was festooned in a myriad lights of the state colors. 9 The flowers and the pretty girls I typified some of the grace of a fair domain.

Break in Sheep Prices Kansas City Stock Yards, Sept. 27, 1912. Cattle received here this week 73,400, last week 74,500, samo week last year 75,000. Prime cattle and butcher grades have sold strong this week, but native grass steers and stockers and feeders are 10 to 25 lower for tho week. Country demand is heavy, but the extra large num bers of native grassers being put forward enables buyers of kill ing cattle to bear down a little, and stockers and feeders drop ped a little on that account. Qurantine cattlo have sold steady this week,. Quality in that division has been lacking, and most of the steers were in the butcher class, the grade that was short in the native division, hence they met a good demand. Prime steers sold at $10.90 for tops this week, highest on rec ord here. Kansas pasture steers sold freely at $6.00 to $8.35. and primo fed westerns brought $10.10 on several different days. Stock steers range from $4.50 to I CoTdratfosfeers sold to feeders buyers at $0.30 and $G.90, and to killers at $5 80 this week. Liberal rocipts are expected next week, and for a few weeks ahead, accoimt of frosts this week in Kansas and Missouri. Hogs received hero this week 29,300, last week 25,200. same week last year 48,000. Tho mar ket has considerable buoyancy, and bobs up after every attempt to put prices down, If prices were not extra high now, the meagre runs would bring big advances. Top today is $8.80, bulk $8.50 to $8.75. Sheep re ceived here this week 08,700, last week 54,300. same week last year 48,200. Prices are thirty Tents lower than a week ago on top lambs, though feeding s'tock is not much changed, lambs sell ing at $6.20. Heavy wetheis sold at $4.15 this week, 20 cents under last week. .imbm m i II...IM Roll of Honor The following is The Record's roll of honor, since the last published report: New subscribers: Mrs. Jane Middleton, Mr. Oscar Vanars dale, Mr. Isaac Parry, Mrs. Caroline ahoppman, Cedar City; Mr. Louis Rochon, Lund; Mr. Wm.
