City COUNCIL MEETING.
THE LIBRARY MATTER 1s SET
TIED BY THE coUMtM TAX
ING ONE ROOM.
Mr.. Grant Explains an Understandings
Which Was Entered Into Last May
MIR. Evans Appears on Behalf Of
the CanineseMr. May Talks About
the SewerAOther Mattera

The interesting feature OF the co0nci
meeting last night was the explanation
made by Mr. Grant on the library mat
ter. The written report o, the finance
committee was produced. which sisted
that the second story Of the building
next to the city hall could be procured
for the sun Of $40 per month. This re-
port was written by Mr.. Arnold, tho
trustee Of the building and was signed
by Mr.. Grant and the other members
Of the finance committee. Mr.. Grant
explained last evening that this report
did no mean what it said, but that it
was understood by the council hat On
ly the front room OF the second story
was TO be had for the sum stated. The
private understanding and not the
adopted. record will be taken.
When Mayor Miller called the coun>
Gil to order, there were Two absences.
Messrs. Fee and Hassett. Mr.. Hassert
came in later. AFTER the minutes had
been disposed OF, Mr.. r. ". Evans ad>
dressed the council upon the subject OF
dog-poisoning. He had been a victim
OF some malicious person and had lost
a valued pet. On Friday afternoon a
neighbour had also lost a dog through
poison. He was very anxious that the
council should take some action lookine
to the prevention OF such outrages. He
had paid taxes when called upon al.
though the taxes for the year 1897 had
not been paid.
Mr.. May said that a dog had been
poisoned on Seventh street. He believ>
ed the drug stores should be compelled
to keep a record Of poisons sold. which
might be a clue to parties doing the
dirty work.
Mr.. Grant believed the proper thing
to do would be to go to the county att
torney and make a complaint under the
state law which covered such cases.
Marshal Stirling stated that several
dogs had been shot In the northern part
OF the city and 1t was his opinion that
the poisoning was now resorted to in
order to get even.
Mr. Evans stated that he would see
what could be done through the county
officials.

AS You Like 1t.

F The class OF 'o7 OF the university have
decided to make its class day exercises
unusually interesting and enjoyable to
all who may choose to attend this year.
Instead of the ordinarily dry class da ,

etc, Shakespeare "As You Like 1t" will
be given in the open air on the campus.
The cast OF characters is chosen from
the class and from the college, that it
may be as strong as the university can
make it. Entirely new costumes are
being made, and one of the best costum-
ers in Denver is employed to assist in
bringing out the play
Prof. Cleaves ability as an elocutionist
is too we'll known to need Comment, and
under his direction the play will certain
ly be made one of the most enjoyable
features of commencement week.

Retail Clerks Protective Association.

The reason why you should organize
and affiliate with the Retail Clerks Ma.
tional Protective Association of the
United States is because we believe in no
force, except the force of argument. We
aim not to lower the standard of lntelli-
gent service, but rather to enroll under
our banner the ablest and most efficient
clerks. The wearing of our adopted
badge and carving Of an official mem
bership card will prove a benefit not
only to yourself but to your employers
in the way of increased patronage
secured through these mystic emblems
of fraternity.

wool.

BOSTON. July 21.-The American Wool
and Cotton Reporter will say tomorrow
OF the wool trade
Lessened activity and increasing firm
ness have seemed to be the features OF
the market the past week. on the one
hand there has been less inclination TO
sell and on the other hand there has been
a marked cessation in the speculative trad
ing on the part of the dealers. The selling
of late has been of a spotty character
many houses reporting practically no
sales. A very large part of the wool now
in Boston Is for the moment withheld
from the market The late speculative
fever has shown a marked incline, which
has slightly enhanced the demand from
the mills. Prices continued to be very firm
" held Asking price for fieeces are very
high. The market for foreign woods has
continued to be the scene OF greatest in
crest. some large blocks of wool having
changed hands from four TO six times, in
some cases getting back into the original
sellers hands at handsome advances Fine
Australian has been in the greatest de-
mand. In Boston sales for the week as-
gregate 5,9l1.O coo pounds, OF which 2.SiS,o0O
pounds were domestic and S,09S,O0O pounds
foreign.

DRY GOODS.

NEW YORK. July 21.-The attitude Of
buyers in the dry goods market seems to
be somewhat freer to-day and sales are OF
a slightly more substantial character than
has heretofore been the case. In all cotton
lines there has been steady trade and
stiffening tendency noticeable, while in
woolens the practical settlement of the
tariff question has paved the way for the
opening of number OF new and
fixing OF prices which as rule average
about ten per cent. higher than those OF
last spring. Jobbers, too, are feeling a
better demand and have no difficulty IN
making freer sales in nearly all depart
ments. both in store trading and from
travellers on the road.
