Control of the Wool Market.

ST. LOUIS, December "A second meet
ing to consider the project of making St.
Louis the central and controlling wool
market of the West was held at the Cot
ton Exchange this afternoon. A good
number of wool and cotton dealers and
general merchants were present, all of
whom heartily endorsed the movement
and announced their readiness to assist in
furthering the scheme. After discussing
the subject of grading, COMPRISING, ware
housing, freights, etc, committee OF nine
was appointed to arrange the details and
report at another meeting, if the project is
carried out. The wool dealers are to be-
come members of the Cotton Exchange
and use all that body jointly with the
cotton men for the transaction of their
business. The scheme is strongly en-
dorsed by several extensive Texas wool
growers, who will lend their assistance in
making this great wool market, where
that article can be bought by grade and
where auction and call sales can be made.

VISIONS.

sit in the quiet evening,
When the shadows are falling fast,
While visions of friends have loved and lost
Come back with the happy past,
And we talk again as we talked of yore
Before they were called to the mystic shore.
They gathered about in the cleaning,
These friends so dear to me,
And they sing the songs loved so well
When my heart was so light and free
And the music so rich and full of glee
Lulls me to rest with its harmony.
The years with their burdens of sorrow
Roll slowly away from my sight,
And my childhood, so full of gladness,
am living again tonight,
When my heart was gay and my step was light
And all the world was strangely bright
But, alas, it is only in fancy
That see my friends again.
they have gone TO "A realm of brightness;
they are free from all care and pain,
And I'll meet them there when this life is o'er,
shall greet them all on that other shore,

Railroad Employees Discharged.

SAN FRANCISCO, December ST is re-
ported that the Central Pacific Railroad
Company have discharged l, 100 men with
in the last three months and that 400 more
had been discharged at Sacramento within
the last three days. General Manager
Towne was interviewed by an Associated
Press reporter and stated that majority
of them were those who had been employed
on repairs and reconstruction, and whose
services were no longer necessary. A
wedding out had been made in the various
departments Others had been dismissed
because there was but little freight moving
at present. This is mainly due to the low
price of wheat Farmers refuse to sell.

SIGNS OF WINTER.


BY WILLIAM M'INTOSH.
The hills are bright with naples yet;
But down the level land
The beech leaves rustic in the wind
As dry and brown as sand.
The clouds IN bars of rusty red
Along the hilltops glow,
As in the still sharp air the frost
Islke dream of snow.
The berries of the briar-rose
Have lost their rounded pride.
The btter-sweet chrysanthemums
Are dropping, heavy-eyed.
The cricket grows more friendly now,
The dormouse sly and wise,
Hiding away in the disgrace
Of nature from mems eyes.
The pigeons in black wavering lines
Are swinging toward the sun:
And all the wide and withered fields
Proclaim the summer done.
His store of nuts and acorns now
The squirrel hastes to gain,
And sets his house in order for
| The winters dreary reign.
ITis time to light the evening fire,
| To read good books, to sing
The low and lovely songs that breathe
Of the eternal spring.

PRAYER AND DUTY.

Give him lift Don't kneel in pravey,
Nor moralizc with his despair,
The man is down and his great need
Is ready help, not prayer and creed.
'Tis time when wounds are washed and healed
Teat the inward motive he revealed
But now, whate'er the spirit be,
Mere words are but mockery.
One grain of aid just now is more
To him than tones of sanity lore
Pray, if you must, within your heart,
But give him lift give him start.
.
The world is full of good advice,
OF PRAYER aud praise and preaching nice:
But the generous souls who aid mankind
Are scarce as gold and hard to find.
Give like Christian-speak in deeds,
A noble life's the best of creeds;
And ne shall wear royal crown
Who gives them lift when they are down

POLITICAL POINTS.

Philadelphia Press Mr.. Blaine's tren-
chant and incisive speech in response to
the serenade of his neighbors is not the ut
terance of man who is bowed and broken
with disaster, but the robust deliverance
of a gallant chief who rises from defeat
with the elasticity and power which have
marked his whole extraordinary career.
Chicago Inter Ocean: Blaine met tremen-
dous opposition but he led in the fight a
host of personal admirers and devotees of
his known policies who would follow the
banner of no other Republican leader.
Though defeated for the Presidency, Blaine
stands to-day the peerless leader of Amer
leans. He had no rival in the hearts of the
people.
New York Tribune The late elec ton
will prove to be one of those that settles
nothing it unsettles much 1t is time to
have officially established the truth about
elections in the Southern States. If there
is in every one of these States an honest
majority on a full and free election, and
with a fair count, against the Republican
party, it is time this should be known.
Minneapolis Tribune: The people who
are burning Mr.. ST. John in effigy might
be in much better business. Mr.. st. John
deserves the contempt of all honest peo-
pie and particularly of those who have
taken strong personal interest in the work
of suppressing intemperance. But it is a
clear waste of fuel and straw to go to the
extent of burning him in effigy. He isn't
worth it.
st. Paul Pioneer Press: Hendricks has
become suddenly unhappy. Having set
tied in his own mind that he was to be the
tail that was to way the Democratic dog
he took trip to Albany for the purpose of
giving the caudal appendage little pre-
liminary exercise, just to timber up, so to
speak. But, alas! the dog refused to be
wagged Whereupon the tail of the ticket
returned to New York, gathered together
his sympathizers, locked the door, and
wagged his tongue. And the walls had
