THE Wool SITUATION.
/ From nun,s Review of saturday

week were only G,072450 pounds, of winch
3,6l3,70O were domestic against 9,3}f4OO in the
same week OF 1892, OF which 56}l,90O was do
mestic. In the four weeks preceding, the
sales averaged 1ll9L7lG pounds per week,
and for the month have risen above 5OOOO,O0O
pounds, for the first time since such records
were kept. The markets have subsidized INTO
dulness, not only because manufacturers sup
ported the advance in prices rs little as they
have Tor some weeks, but also because the
large speculative holders find no chance as
yet to realize their paper profits, and begin TO
question whether the rise viii 90 further. But
London sales closed on the 3Oth very strong,
with AN advance of p per cent. on fine, and 10
to Is per cent. on cross bred wool, and the cs-
Innate of wool to be offered at the next sale in
September is not large. Prices have scarcely
changed during the week, but are stronger in
the interior than at the seabOard, ms they were
before the rise began.

A RABBIT" Dog.
LFrom The Flolida Times.Union.

Among the amusing discussions dur
ing the legislative session at Tallahassee
was that on bill of Sulivan's, of Es-
Gambia, providing for the prompt
slaughter of rabid dogs. The reading
clerk had just read the title when an old
gentleman, a representative from one Of
the interior counties, arose and with
great gravity and dignity said: "Mr.
Speaker, | am opposed to that bill.
am opposed to it because | don't see why
rabbit dogs should be killed any quicker
than any other kind of dogs. I've got a
rabbit dog. He amt much on looks,
but tell you when that dog gets on a
hot trail in the broom sedge and little
later you hear his voice a-yelpng in a
high key and the yelps getting fainter
and fainter and fainter, till bye and bye
you can just hear 'em down in the hol-
Ter, and you go there and you see little
bench-legged yeller rascal barkin', his
eyes bright and his forehead wrinkled
with excitement, under a sartin tree, jes'
you get long pole and meat is yOurn
for dinner" There was breathless ST.
lence during this eloquent appeal on be-
half Of the rabbit dog. When it had
been concluded others rose up and paid
glowing tributes to the qualities of rab-
bit dogs they owned until one would
have believed that thing necessary to
mans candidacy for the legislature in
the State of Florida is flrst-class rabbit
dog. The bill, by the way, was killed
| by large majority.

The APPLE CROP.
From the New York World. |

When the untlmely and severe freeze
occurred in June the reports agreed that
the apple crop was ruined. So it was,
where the frost was hard enough. But
sufficiently widespreadIng to destroy
any crop. And now the National Apple
Shippers association, in session at Chic
ago, declares that the outlook is for the
largest crop and best quality IN recent
years of this king of fruits. 1t is good
news.

BISHOP HERNEssY WILL RECOVER.
Special Dispatch From Chicago States That
He is Now Past the Danger Point.

A private dispatch received in this
city last night from the sister superior
of st. Joseph's hospital in Chicago
stated that the physicians had pro-
nounced Bishop Hennessey now past
the danger point.
The Catholic people as we'll as the
bishops numerous friends who are not
| Catholics have been alarmed at reports
coming from Chicago in regard to his
condition. Bishop Hennessey is high
ly esteemed by all classes of people
here and the people Of his own church
greatly love him.
When the Eagle announced that a
dangerous operation would likely have
to be performed the enquiry was con-
| tinually asked of the Eagle have you
heard anything later from Bishop Hen
nessey? The news given from him will
gladden. many hearts in Wichita this
morning.
Ever since Bishop Hennessey came
TO Wichita it has been believed that his
church here under his care would ac-
complish great good. And when word
came of his very serious sickness his
people grieved at the very suggestion
that Bishop Hennessey might never
return to Wichita alive.
a minister in one of the churches in
this city yesterday said if Bishop Hen
Messy lived that he would certainly
establish a great educational institu-
ton here. He thought Bishop Hen
Messy would have secured Garfield
university before now If there had been
a few more of his church people in this
and surrounding counties. But in any
event he considered that the Catholics
would have another great school here
in a every few years If Bishop Hen
nesseyS life is spared.

REVEALED HIS BOTS FACE.
C. II. Chase Finds His Lost Son In a Grave
in Oregon.

Adams & Adams yesterday adjusted
life insurance on the life ofC. G. Chase
with the Friends association for $1,000.
There is nothing peculiar about the
bare statement. People every day are
receiving life insurance policies, but
there is a history back of this settle
ment which gave the father of c. c.
| Chase $1,000.
c. H. Chase, father of c. c. Chase,
who received this insurance, is a far
mer living near Augusta, in Butler
county. Young Chase came over to
for time in Wallace's drug store.
Becoming dissatisfied he returned
home and in short time went to Utah.
That was three years ago.
Young Chase secured a position in
Utah and regularly for a year kept up
correspondence with his parents.
Then, without any explanation, Char
ley's letters stopped. His parents
made frequent calls at the postoffice
and Charley's father thought there
must be something wrong, and Char
ley'S mother dreamed of her absent son.
They waited and watched but no word
came from the absent boy.
Letters were written to the postmas-
ter at the town where young Chase had
mailed his letters but the postmaster
answered that the young man had left
nobody knew where.
Then there was a long two years OF
waiting but no word from the absent
son. No word or trace of him could be
found. He had disappeared as sud-
denly and as effectually as if the earth
had opened UP and swallowed him.
One day two years after young
Chase's disappearance his father got
hold of an Oregon paper. In that pa
per he read Of a railroad wreck in Ore
gon. The list of killed was given and
among the number was c. C. Chase
The father knew that was the name
of his boy, but how could he be in Ore
gon when he must have been murdered
or died two years ago. c. II. Chase be-
lieved if his boy were alive he would
write to his parents, but that railroad
wreck and c. G. Chase kept constantly
before his eyes. He could stand it no
longer and three weeks ago ne went
to Oregon. He hunted for the grave
of c. c. Chase who had been killed in
the wreck. The body was exhumed
and when the coffin was opened the
Mortified father recognized ths pre-
served features of his long lost boy
Young Chase's baggage had been
kept and was given to the father He
brought il home and in looking over il
found a life insurance policy for 81 900
written by the Mutual friends. Mr.
Chase brought it over and gave it TO
Adams & Adams for collection with
the above stated result.

The Cook Gang Driven Out and Life and

last night. Roy is one OF the bright
Kansas boys who went 10 Oklahoma
when that country was first opened
for settlement He was born and raised
in NeoSho county When asked about
court business in Oklahoma Mr.. Hoff-
man said in reply TO questions:
There has been a great many cases
accumulated on the docket The con-
dition of the country at the time OF the
opening to settlement and Immediately
after was such that a great many
criminal cases were brought into court.
The United States court has cleared
the docket of about 500 Of these GRIM
inal cases in the last six months. Judge
Brooks the United States Attorney has
done a good deal of hard work in clear
ing the docket of these ceases.
They were mostly cases in which
men We're charged with perjury in con-
nection with claim contests or selling
whiskey TO the Indians.
II seems TO be the opinion here in
Kansas that most Of these cases charg-
ing parties with selling liquor 10 lndi-
ans are worked up by the marshals for
the purpose of blackmail or for fees.
This is a mistake because in great
majority of cases convictions were OBJ
tanned. The punishment is usually a
fine and sometimes jail sentence.
Marshal Nix is a caretui oincsr anu MS
official conduct is beyond question.
Marshal Nix has driven the Cook
gang from the Territory. l do not know
where they went, but they are not in
Oklahoma. Cook is a half breed and
his gang is composed of the remnants
