W. A. ALLEN & CO.'S WOOL CIR
CULAR.
CHIcaGo J,,ne 18th 1916

CHICAGO, June 18th, 1885.
| We have delayed our usual market re
port to learn the result of the very large
auction sale of fannels lover 10000
cases of the best makes) held in New
York this week, the result being looked
forward to as indicating the probable
range OF values this season, or at least
the tone of markets. This large offering
sold readily, and was widely distributed,
at about7 to Is per cent decline from
last years prices. This is about the
same as the decline conceded in wool
values. The sale is generally considered
fairly satisfactory for the times, and
must result in giving more stability to
values, and more confidence to all con-
cerned.
Waiting the result of above sales, the
wool markets have been rather slow, and
manufacturers have not been in much
hurry about wool buying, except as bar
gains have been offered. It is very
easy to make an "active and firm mar
ket," nowadays, at some concessions
from fair prices. At 90c for gold dol
lar that result is inevitable anywhere.
There has been considerable doing on
our market, however, in some grades,
of fair values, and with the continued
enquiries and looking round, by manu-
tacturers, there promises to be a good,
steady trade as soon as there are offer
lngs enough, and the views of buyers and
sellers are harmonized. Receipts are
yet light.
With more of low combing offering,
the extreme prices ola week ago cannot
be realized. At our quotations, below,
there are ready buyers and large de-
mands. We note more enquiry for
medium combing at &c. Such has
been held at 23c, without sales. Manu-
facturers are pretty decided in their
views of values. There is considerable
enquiry for fine woods, but the views of
buyers and sellers are yet often apart.
The best conditioned woods receive the
preference. The woods of Kansas, Ne
bIaska, Montana, etc., are reported to be
in much lighter and better condition
than ever before, and samples received
confirm this, which will be in favor of an
active demand for them on markets at
good relative prices. We have received
some fine Kansas, which was certainly
choice in condition and quality for any |
state, and sold readily at 21c. The
kenny coarse woods of New Mexico, |
Colorado, Texas, etc., at 123c, and coarse
At 15c, for light, good length woods, are
wanted and sell quickly. The probable
demand for medium, clothing woods, is
yet undeveloped to any extent The
over grades will likely be in good fair
demand. Halfblood may be slow.
Washed woods are very dull, at any

ORIGIN OF THE NATIONAL SONG
HAIL COLUMBIA

We take the following from McMas-
ter's new History Of the People of the
United States" the second volume of
which has been recently issued:
Thousands of men who despised John
Adams, who detested the Federalists,
who loathed the influence Great Britain
had in Federal affairs, now lin 1889
turned to support the Government with
vigor. Their hearts were still warm to-
ward France. But they could not suffer
even so old and dear an ally to heap up
insult on their native land. Such an
outburst of patriotism had never before
been seen. 1t began at Philadelphia and
spread thence as fast as the post-riders
could carry the news. Night after night
at the theater pit, boxes and gallery
joined in one mighty shout for the
!" Presidents March," for Yankee
Doodle" or for the stirring music of
"Stony Point" While the airs were
being played, the widest excitement pre-
vailed. The audience rose to their feet,
stood upon the seats, waved hats and
walking-sticks, sang, cheered, and when
the piece was finished, demanded it over
and over again. Then a band of hardy
Republicans in some part of the gallery
or the pit would call for g Ca Ira" or the
Marseillaise" hymn till their cries were
drowned amid the Kisses and groans.
Not to be outdone, the Republicans
thereupon bribed the musicians to play
no Federal tunes. The first night they
refused storm of Indignation was raised
in the theater, and they gave way. The
next night they stood firm and were well
pelted for their pains. The Federaiists
were highly indignant. The theater,
said they, more than any other place,
brings men of all classes together. The
managers should therefore pay some
heed to public feeling in the selection OF
the music. The present is no time to
crate the public ear with these murder
lshouts, " Ca Ira" and the " Carmagnole."
The enthusiastic clamor with which the
/" Presidents March" had been called for,
and the deafening applause with which
it had been greeted, should have taught
them this Is it the purpose of a theate1
company to please or insult the public

DON'T SPILL THE MILK.

"There is no use crying over spilled
milk" says the old saw. If you are not
only bald, but have no life in the roots
of your hair, there is no use crying over
that, either. Take both time and your
self by the forelock while there is fore
lock left. Apply Parker's Hair Balsam
to your hair before matters get worse.
1t will arrest the falling off of your hair
and restore its original color, gloss and
softness. 1t is perfect dressing withal,
clean, richly perfumed, cools and heals
the scalp.

Long before the curtain rose the house
was too small to hold the thousands who
clamored to be let in. Those who got
IN were too excited to wait quietly for
the song. At last the comedy ended,
and Mr.. Fox appeared upon the stage.
Every line was loudly applauded, the
whole house joined in the chorus, and,
when the verse "Behold the chief who
now commands" was reached, the audi
cnce rose to his feet and cheered till the
building shook to its foundations. Four
times the song was encored, was de-
manded again at the end of the pam
tomime, and again at the'close of the
play. A few called for Sea Ira," but
We're quickly put down. The words of
Hail Columbia" were printed ia full
in the newspapers of the following day.
The Gazette hoped that every lady in
the city would practice the music, learn
the words, and sing them at the next
reception then perhaps the two or
three French-Americans who remained
might feel the charm of patriotism and
join i'll the chorus of the song.

Last summer the National Cornet
Band gave a series of concerts in the
park, which were greatly appreciated
by our citizens. A sum of about 800
was subscribed and paid over to the
Band to partly recompense them for
their time. Our people would be glad
to have the concerts renewed this sum-
mer, and we think good sum could be
collected to pay the Band if some one
would take the matter in hand.
The newsboy who attempted to
swindle the Dane on the Chicago &
Northwestern Railway was Immediately
removed as soon as the officers of the
company learned of the matter. The
newsboys are not railway employees,
but the Company will not allow any of
them on the trains when charge of dis
honesty is brought against them. 1t is
claimed by employees on the train that
the newsboy did not change caps with
one of the brakemen. but with friend
of his own, who is not in the employ of
the railway company. and that none OF
the employees of the company tried to
shield him or assist in his escape.

a brother-in-law of that name, and sup
posing the request came from him, inn
mediately responded and the transfer
was made. The agent ofsthe American
Express company in Kenosha, upon
whom the order was drawn, questioned
Mr.. Fox closely, but could not satisfy
himself that he was the man he pur

No man knew better than he how to
profit by the popular viii, and at no
time IN the whole course of his life had
SO fine chance of profting by the pop
ular will been offered him. Politics
ruled the hour. The city was full of ex-
cited Federalists, who packed the thea
ter night after night for no other purpose
than to shout themselves hoarse over
the Presidents March," He deter
mined to make use of this fact. He
would take the march, find some one
to write few patriotic stanzas to suit it,
and. on the night of his benefit, sing
them to the house. Some Federalists
were consulted, were pleased with the
idea, and named Joseph Hopknson as
the man best fitted to write the words.
He consented, and in a few hours Hail
ColUmbia" was produced. The night
for the benefit was that of "Wednesday, |
the 18th of April, and the Gazette an
nounced that the performance would |
comprise comedy called the 's Italian |
