WOOL is DULL.

The situation Does Not Compare FnvOrh-
bly, With tbs springer 1895, which sTns
Had Enough-No Demand for the staple.
Usually wool takes d jump in quota
lions at this time Of the year but the
situation this spring is SO bad that there
Is no demand for the staple compare
lively speaking, and so there is not the
usual advance. AS the new clip is now
due, few words in regard to the sit
uatlon In the eastern marts are timely.
The seaport market continues to be exc
tremely dull, as 1t has been for some
time Sales are few and being made at
sacrifice.
The outlook is anything but promis-
ing, for the reason that fully one-haf
OF the wooden factories Of the country
are now Idle. In this section there is
very little wool being sold. the efforts
made by buyers being not nearly SO
determined as in former years. This Is
true because there seems but very
slight possibility Of profit in wool trans
actions. Last year promises were held
out that there would be an improve
ment this spring. but the promise re-
mains unfulillled, principally because
all the great eastern manufacturers
have their factories and warehouses
filled with both the raw material and
manufactured stuffs.
Even should the Republicans succeed
next November, an improvement can
not be looked for Immediately upon the
passage Of protective legislation.
Aside from the large stocks Of manu-
features Of wool and Of raw material
as we'll, there will be rush Of foreign
wool and WOODEN manufactures into
this country Immediately after the cleo
ton, II the Republicans succeed, so as
to come in under n tariff favorable to
importation. With all this to dispose of,
It will take possibly two years to bring
the American market TO its normal con-
dition and prices to protective basis.
Notwithstanding the fact tllat the clip
Of 1896 Is fully forty per cent less than
usual there is fully twice as much
stock OF wool and wooden manufacturers
as ever before In the history Of the
American wool market. t{.

French military authorities to the ques-
ton of succuring the wounded on battle
fields when night comes on after great
battle. Experiments have been made
with powerful electric arc lights, but tine

aged and aided him in his pursuit of
knowledge In time he came to the United
States and earned living by teaching
school himself. He first gained promi
nence by publishing an article on astron-
omy. He made the acquaintance of some
scientific men, who secured for him po-
sition on The Nautical Almanac.
In 1887 he WAS appointed superintend
ent of this publication, and has held it
ever since, although he has refused some
very iiattering offers to take other and
more lucrative positions. He had begun
the tables of the planets, his life work
which is not yet finished. These tables
are the most accurate which have ever
been prepared. and those which have been
published have been adopted by the pub
fishers of all other nautical almanacs. To
all navigators they represent "a priceless
accumulation of accurate knowledge.
Professor Newcomb has also written sew
eral books on astronomy and mathematics
which are standard works and which arc
used in schools and colleges as Textbooks.
The Legion of Honor is not the first dis
tinction to he conferred on Professor New
comb. He is a member of the French
Academy of Sciences, an honor shared by
only four other foreigners. He has re
ceivcd IA dozen or more degrees from col
lcgos and several gold medals from various
scientific societies.

MR.. WILLIAMS VIEWS.

The Island Pond Herald says in its
report of farmers institute recently
held in that town:
AT the evening session f. c. Williams
of Coventry spoke upon the subject
'lIow can Vermont farmers raise horses
at profit? He spoke of the depression
in the horse breeding industry and claim
ed it was due to an Over-production of
certain kinds of horses; that people had
been raising trotters and in the craze for
speed had lost sight of very many other
desirable qualities. He claimed that
Vermont farmers could raise horses at n
profit If they carried on the business
and did not 90 into it so largely as to
embarrass them. He said every farmer
should be dairyman and should have a
dairy of such size as he could convenient
" manage, and then if he had a taste
for horses to raise one or two colts a
year, and if he bred right and took good
care of them the prospect for profitable
returns for the next ten years was good.
The speaker thought the gentieman's
roadster the best horse to raise in Yer
mont because we had the roadster FAM
", the foundation of the stock referred
to, and claimed that our hills, valleys
and climate were adapted to raising that
class of horses. lie referred to the Nor
gan family as the roadster family and
claimed no other family was so largely
endowed with all the qualities that We're
required to make up the frst-class road
ster, and that today many of the most
valuable horses are from the Morgan

CAROLINE j. BARTLETT. and i'm 1879 fin.
ished college course with honor, rccciv-
ing tho degree of A. b. She spent the
next year in special study and the degree
of A. Nj. was conferred upon her. She
taught school in Iowa for year, and then,
on account of an injury, spent two years
as an Invalid. She went to Dakota, where
she recovered her health, and then she
went to Minneapolis, where for two years
she worked on a daily paper as reporter.
Miss Bartlett's next step was to enter
the ministry. She was called to Sioux
Falls, 5. d., and for three years occupied
the pulpit of A II Souls church there In
1899 she accepted Il call from the Unitarian
church of Kalamazoo and was the first
woman to occupy ii pulpit in Michigan.
She found that there was wide field for
work in Kalamazoo The church which
had made her its pastor was in an almost
hopeless condition of decay. Tho society
was in debt, and the congregation had
dWindlcd to d nero ha-n'ul Miss Bart.
lett at once introduced new methods. ShG
began work along educational and hui
manitarian lines and opened the doors OF
her church To everybody. The enterprise
was success from tho start.
Miss Bartlett then induced the society
to drop all traces of scctarianism and
change the name. As the Peuplr'S church
it became Immensely popular \ fine new
structure WAS built according to her adj
vanced ideas and humorous cntrrpri~ci
not usually undertaken by church suci-
cites were incorporated. In the basemcnt
a gymnasium for women was fitted up and
an instructor hired. A free kindergarten
where lunches are served to children was
also established. Rooms where various
clubs and associations may meet were in
cluded in the arrangement of the building.
In Short it has been made an everyday
church. Miss Bartlett's sermons are not
theological discUurses, and are so liberal
that all sects and denominations can listen
to them without being offended. The only
creed to which members subscribe is Help
one another" and even the unterrified
Bob could find nothing to object to in
that.
