Wool PROSPECTS,.

The wool market has continued fair
iy active, and prev ious prices are well
sustained, though softening tendency
will not be unexpected as soon as new
wool begins to come in moro freely.
A fair proportion of fine unwashed
wool frnm Texas is now coming for
ward, and can be used to some extent
TO lessen the demand for Ohio and
Michigan fleeces. New England deal
ers are more largely represented 10
Texas this year than ever before.
Lltest advices from that state show a
slight upward tendency there with pur.
chases at 25a26c for fine anG medium
and 22 l-2a23 1-2, for coarser lots. At
Galveston sales have been made at
25af6c for fine; 23a26 for medium and
I7al9c for coarse. The clips of some
sections of Texas will be double that of
any previous year.
The Tennessee buyers have stopped
purchasing, owing to the higher views
Of the growers, who had been buying at
2Ga27c. In Kentucky there is less
activity then in some previous seasons
and prices have not risen much above
25c for average lots. In Georgia as
high as 2Sc is being paid. In Missouri
2Sa29 cents is expected for choice me-
dium and 23a24c for fine medium.
The arrivals OF wool at San Francisco
California are light for the season,
owing to the cold, backward weather.
Fancy clips lhave been sold 22a2sc and
from fair to good 1sa90c. In Kern
county, where there are many descen-
dents Of Addison county sheep, the
highest price for eve aeeces have been
20a2lc aud very few lots realized SO
much, buyers are slow to take them on
o basis OF over 20a2lc for best ones on
account of shrinkage. Fancy feeces
meet ready sales, but poor grades are
yeay dull, l8al9c for fair and l5al7c

The product Of western pulled wool
Is being concentrated in fewer ana large
bands and some Of the sharper pullers
are learning that 1t Is profitable for
them to pay some attention to the
quality NJ well as weight. Tho boom
of two years ago was a great Intolerance
to the improvement Of western pulled
wool, since it led pullers into the habit
of hurrying their products in to mar
ket as fast as possible, regardless of
condition.
In New York the market is duh.
Buyers are not inclined to operate ut
present price,. Sales include medium
Michigan at 35a43c X Ohio at 3Oa52c,
Xxx Ohio at As cents, combing at 40a4Sc,
California at 14s27 1-2, Colorado OF
17a23c, fall Texas at 19a2l and spring
Texas 2la25c. Some sales of fine fleeces
were made at at Albany n. y, at
SSa40.
As general summary it may be
stated that manufacturers have not
gone beyond limited quantities in
purchasing the past week and have
taken such parcels as were obtainable
at easy prices. The whole drift oil
affairs is to dizziness until something is
ascertained about the new clips. There
does not appear special pressure to sell
but rather the feeling is to meet BUYERS
pro nptly when about steady prices can
be made.
The market may be quoted substan.
TALLY as follows: New England wash

A will of remarkable originality has
been filed in the San Francisco probate
court made by John L. Pautlind, all old
pioneer who died recently. The will is
in the deceased's own handwriting, and
the chief points are as follows: 81,

clear, level-headed sense, and know
Just what am about, and don't want

his remains be taken to Norwalk, Ohio,
and that his parents and brother be
buried with him and one monument be
put over them. lie directs that none
of the children of his father by his Sec
ond wife be buried anywhere near him.
OF his two halt-sisters he says: "Thcy

to the first issue. There was q chasnl
during life, let it even be wider in
death. This death-bed repentance and
psrdoning of all great wrongs is all 'in
your eye and worse than hypocrisy"
The will then provides for the DISPOSE
ton Of spurs, saddles, pipe, clothing to
relatives. "Cousin George g. Pautlind

scabbard, the best outfit for use in the
West. Cousin Boyd Pautiind is 10 have

What singular marriages they have in
Kentucky The latest and most re-
markable took place recently in Madi-
sonville, and its particulars are thus re-
cited by the Henderson Reporter:
"About five years ago E. l.. Hendricks,
then citizen of this place, was secretly
married in New Albany to Miss Maria
b. Morton, we'll known belle of Mad
isonville and OF southwest Kentucky.
Hendricks took the first train west and
Miss Morton returned home. One
friend only knew of the marriage, and
he held the marriage certificate locked
up in his safe. The plan was for Hen
bricks to make sufficient to support a
wife, and then to have preparations
made for grand wedding; and the
officiating minister, instead of begin
ming the marriage ceremony, should
produce the certificate and announce to
the amazement OF parents, friends, and
all the company, that the couple had
been married for years. This plan was
not carried out. At the end of three
years, for some reason known only to
the parties themselves, q divorce was
obtai ed. This, of course. made the
matter public. Up to this time not
even the parents themselves dreamed
that their daughter was married. And
Hendricks and Miss Morton are mar
ried over again. The reconciliation
was accomplished by letter, and on
Thursday OF last week the groom went
Oh from St. Louis. The meeting and
the new marriage were graphic, and
can better be imagined than described.
Miss Morton having recently been con-
firmed into the Episcopal church, the
marriage was according to the ancient
and solemn rites of that church, and
was performed by the Rev. II. S. Bar
rett of Henderson. This time the
happy groom bore his fair bride away
to his western home.
