THE WOOL MARKET.
The Demand VIII be sufficient 10 Maintain
Present Prices,

The Demand VIII be sufficient 10 Maintain
Present Prices,
NEW YORK, August 26.-BrddStreets', In
its review of the wool market, says: There
has been somewhat less activity in the
wool markets this week tnsn last, but a
general inquiry for Supplies On the part Of
manufacturers is observed, and prices are
firm at the advances lately established.
Little speculation is now apparent.
The prevailing opinion in the trade
seems to be that the demand for cOnsump-
ton will continue steady enough and large
enough to maintaiu present values. Just
now there is nothing to point to further
advance. The gain has been most note
worthy in fine fieeces, though certain de-
scriptions of fine medium woods have ad-
vsnced about as much. Tho wooden goods
situation is better than month ago, and
this fact gives strength to the market for
raw materials.
At Boston prices are strong, with q
steady demand for consumption. The
principal manufacturers have laid in con-
siderable stocks Fine Ohio tlseces are
selling very we'll at about Soc per pound
There is no little activity in fine medium
and fine Territory supplies, and Texas
wool likewise sells freely.
There is no special feature in foreign
wool Of any description. Receipts all told,
since the beginning of the year, have been
much less than during the same period last
year. Current quotations are as follows in
comparison with 1886 and 1887:

The sales of the week st Boston are re-
ported 6, 500, 900 pounds, as against 6, 925,
900 pounds last week, and 1875, DOC
in the corresponding week last year.
At Philadelphia wool has been in fair
demand, but stocks have been 80 much re-
duced by recent sales that maintenance
OF last weeks activity has been out OF the
question. The sales for the week foot up
total OF ISL 900 pounds, against 1903
900 pounds last week, and 6S7, 900 pounds
for the corresponding week last yesr.

Origin OF Popular Phrases.

BOsh. The derivation OF this
word, which is applied to anything
nonsepsical or trashy, is variOusly
accounted for. II is traced by some
to the Dutch, bosk, corrupted from
Bois le-Duc, the name of town iq
Holland. 1t is probably a Turkish
word, however, meaning empty,
vain, worthless, bogus, ip short,
and was imported into England
some twenty five years ago by Brit
ish soldiers who had served iu the
Russian War and had picked it yp
from the Turkish soldiery with
whom they had beep thrown in con-
tact.
HGpker. Probably a corruption
of " "hunger." 1t is always used in
connection with the word "aiter,'s
as we "hamker after something"
The text in Matthew v. 8, "Blessed
are they which do hunger aud thirst
after righteousness" shows the af-
tinity, even if it does not establish
the Idenity of the two words
'thunger" aud "hanker."
The half is better than the lOkOIe.
The author of this proverb was
Hesiod, an ancient poet whose
learning was not drawn from books.
1t was given in the nature Of an adj
moDition to his brother, to prefer p
friendly accommodation to htig.
ious lawsuit and has fixed a para
dOxical saying often applied.
Tie die Is cast. When Cesar, af-
ter anxious deIiberation, decided on
the passage of the Rubicon, rousing
himself with a start of courage he
committed himself to fortune With
the above pfOverbial expression on
his lips, used by gamesters in des-
perate play. Having passed the Ru-
bicon he exclaimed: "The die is
