FINE WOOL.
Mr.. A. r. Jacob Sells His Clip of Last

MIR. A. Il. Jacob Sells His Clip of Last
The Panhandle counties of West vir-
ginia have o well-deserved reputation
among Eastern wool buyers and manufac-
turers Of textile fabrics for raising the best
woods in the country, and yet it is only the
trade probably, outside Of the flock masters
themselves, who know the exact quality
and variety which is grown. Last Satur-
day the writer was shown by Messrs. Hork-
heimer Bros, an average sample of fine
S'xony and Silesian wool which repre-
sented the clip of Mr.. A. r. Jacob, q we'll
known flock master OF Ohio county, whose
1ocks Craze upon the beautiful and fertile
hills and dales within two miles Of
Clinton Village. The clip consists
Of 1915 f~eeces, aggregating 1,40O
pounds. The price paid was within
q traction Of fifty cents per pound. The
wool is q marvel of softness, lightness,
frmness and strength. To the touch it
feels like elder down; its CLINT is snowy
white, and although the wavy fbres in
their natural state, as they are CON-
psctly punched in each fleece, do not ap-
pear over an inch and q half in length, are,
when separated, like gold under the gold
beater's hammer, susceptible of indefinite
ductility. The threads Of sspider's web or
ofthe finest silk do not surpass it in its deli
cate and almost invisible fineness. Indeed it
is truly wonderful to what perfection Mr..
Jacob has wrought up his stock. 1t is said
there are not over o dozen such clips in
the States, and most Of them are right in
the Panhandle counties. The Messrs.
Horkheimer have purchased this clip for
the Ballard Vale wooden mills, of Ballard
Vale, Mass. The mills are celebrated for
the manufacture of the finest wooden un-
derwear, such as fancy white ~fiannels, &c
and will have nothing but the finest
flseces from which TO make their popular
goods.
One of the admirable features of the clip
is the tidy and excellent way in which Mr..
Jacob has put it up for market. There
are no tagging in it. and every fleece is
tied with q fine Irvine, instead of the heavy
stuff 30 commonly used. The Messrs.
Horkheimer say that this careful prepare
ton Of the leeces always insures several
cents more a pound for the clip, and that
it would be money in the pockets of the
flock masters if they would uniformly ad-
here to the example of Mr.. Jacob in the
preparation of their clips for market. The
REGISTER congratulates Mr.. A. X. Jacob
upon his high reputation as the grower of
fine woods.

on Market street yesterday afternoon, a
very fair representation being present.
President Corcoran presided, rs usual.
The regular routine business was transact :
cd, after which a resolution was offered
i~ustructing the Committee on Legislation,
which is composed of nine members, TO
wait upon the Board Of Public Works and
urge it to employ home labor on the work
Of laying the brick pavement, putting in
curbing and all other such work under
their control. 1t was understood that
outside men had been employed in such
work, and the Assembly thought it only
right that taxpayers Of the city should be
given the preference. The resolution was
unanimously adopted.
The committee met at the conclusion Of
the Trades Assembly meeting, and ap-
pointed a subcommittee TO wait upon the
members of the Board Of Public Works
and presenting their argument, request
them to meet with the committee as q
whole this evening to take the matter into

Bridge Gives Way.

A serious accident, possibly en,ailing
the loss Of life, was averted on the Wheel
ing and Elm Grove moter line yesterday
afternoon. The heavy timber supporting
one side of the bridge over Woods Run,
at Leatherwood, gave way at its juno
ton with the girder, and the weight Of the
motor and cars would in all probability
have snapped it in twain, with the result
Of precipitsting the train and its human
burden into the run. OF course, no one
would have drowned in the run, but the
fall would no doubt have MANNED some of
the passengers at least. AS it was, Presi-
dent Dubois was notified of the danger,
and he had the passengers transferred, not
allowing trains to ran over the bridge.
