EXPLANATION.

The arrow flies with the wind. The top ng- Ires at station indicate minimum temperature Tor the days; those underneath 1t, if any, the mount of rainfall or of melted snow in inches Isobars. CT solid lines. connect points of equal air pressure; isotherms, dotted lines, equal temperature. The word high" means high barometric pressure and Is usually accompanied by fair weather; low refers to low pres sure and is usually preceded and accompanied by cloudy weather and rains Lows usually first appear on the Washington coast. When the pressure is high in the interior and low along the coast and the isobars extend north and south along the coast, rain is probable; but when the low is inclosed with isobars of marked curvature, rain south of Oregon is m- probable. With high" in the vicinity of Idaho and the pressure falling to the Cali fornia coast, warmer weather may be expected in summer and colder weather in winter. The reverse of these conditions will produce an opposite result.

BOSTON WOOL MARKET.

BOSTON, April 19-The wool market here continues very dull, and the actual business has been the least of any week yet reported. The fact of the matter is that with look ing very probable there Is less disposition on the part of the manufacturers to buy wool than since the trouble first began. Dealers as a rule are accepting the situation 1t Is. and where they see desiring to buy wool they are not trying to force business, although a buyer with cash could probably get conces- sions from present prices quoted on nearly all kinds of domestic wool.
