FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL,
The Wool Market.

There is noted better feeling in the Wool
market. The buying is confined largely to worst
ed and dress goods mills. The most noticeable
movement is in Montana and other good staple
territory Woods. There have been several rea-
sons assigned. but the principal one is the expec-
tation that the tariff question will soon be set
tied. Ohio and Michigan combing Woods are firm
under decrease in quantity. The past week has
developed considerable inquiry, especially in
Texas and carpet Woods. The clip will fall below
that of last year. 1t is expected that from now
on t,heIe will be an improvement, followed by a
gradual rise in prices.

Origin of c noIera Infantum
NEW Orleans Picayune.l


PROFESSOR Vaughan, of Michigan uni
verSity' thinks that he has discovered
the origin of cholera infantum. It is,
according to his theory, the result Of a
poison generated by germs in the ALI
mentary canal. He has extracted and
tested in his laboratory the specific nnson
in question, and hopes to be able ia nro.
duce an antidote with which the patient
may be inoculated. He calls the poison
tyrotoxicon, and finds it in cheese and
all products of milb --ss -.

A few days since man living in the
west wanted to pay off a grudge against
a neiehbor without any risk to himself,
and placed n dynamite cartridge in a
sbeaf of wheat. The cartridge was dis
covered before it went into the thrasher,
and no one was hurt. This suggested
an idea to an Ohio coward, who tried the
same plan, and succeeded in blowing up
the machine, burning the barn and IN
juring several men, but killing no one.
If bad examples were as slowly followed
as good what n fine thing it would be-

Host-Yes, and I've got good reason
for it. You know the old ruin on the
hill back of the hotel is haunted, and lots
of tourists put up here at this hotel just
to see the ghost. Now what does the
specter do but strike me for an increase
of wages, and I'm already giving more
than he could earn anywhere else
Customer-Th That flag you sold me must
have been made of very poor stuff. 1t

it?

Street Car manners In France.

The hog claims even the historically
polite France for his own. AT a discus
sion by the town council of Havre upon
the regulations for city car lines one
member complained that in these days
men sitting in car never thought OF
giving their places to women, even
though the latter might have to stand
outside on the platforms in the rain. He
moved the adoption of bylaw empow-
ering conductors to compel men seated
IN the interior to surrender their places
10 women outside. Several other coun-
clllors galiantly supported the motion,
but the majority concluded that tbe
temper of the age would not permit anv
such social revolution. The episode has
excited considerable attention in Par;s
where there is general mourning over the
decadence Of French manners -

within the last quarter century, it re-
qufres hardy man-perhaps a fool
hardy one-to tell these disciples that
they err in this prophecy.
The first specific purpose of the
Wimodaughsis is to erect in Washing
ton splendid building with large
auditorium in which all the National
conventions of associations of women
may be held, grand music hall, an art
chamber, library and reading room, a
restaurant and reception room, gym
nasium, natatorium. bowling al
ley and billiard parlor, all thoroughly
equipped and provided with instructors,
ladies, of course. Can they do all this
with twenty-five thousand dollars? Why
not? Men can and do build magnificent
club houses with as little cash capital as
this; and they keep women out of them,
too, by the way, just as the women now
purpose to keep men out of this one.
In parts Of the building not otherwise
occupied Offices will be fitted up, but
no man will be permitted to hire one of
them. 1t is believed that there are
feminine lawyers, doctors, claim agents,
real estate agents, etc, enough to occupy
all the room to be devoted to Offices But
if there be not, why there are art teach
ers, music teachers, milliners and dress
makers enough, not to speak of the
probability that many such organiza-
tions as the American Suffrage Associa-
