A shipper makes the statement to a
CHRONICLE man that the rate per 100
pounds ON wool from The Dalles to Bos-
ton via. the Union Pacific railroad, is
$2.65. The Northern Pacific line takes
wool from this point to the same desti-
nation for $2.45, twenty cents cheaper

The woman knitters OF the Island OF
Shetland produce marvelously beauti-
full work. A very fine long shawl.
weighing only two and three quarter
ounces, was sold at Lerwich last year
for SIS. A choice collection of knit
goods, tho finest ever produced on the
islands, was presented 10 the Princess
of Wales on the occasion OF her mar
rage. Ones enjoyment OF the exqui-
sitely fine work is considerab bly, married,
however, by knowledge OF the fact
that the cruel custom of pulling out
the fleece from the sheep by the root Is
still practiced In Shetland. The finest
wool is obtained in this way, and the
secretary OF the long-named society
should seek out the men who practice
this savage custom, which is called
s'rueinp."
