A QUEER HABIT.
Il Is Contracted by n Cleveland NAN
While Trying to Learn
the Typewriter.

A Cleveland man has set about learn
ing the use of the typewriter, reports
the Plain Dealer. Up to the present
time he has mad somebody to do his
typewriting for him, but now he wants
TO know how TO run it all by himself.
He admits that he isn't an apt scholar.
II comes slowly. The letters are hard
to find, and the spacing is so easily
forgotten. But there is one thing that
amuses him. He is learning 10 spell,
and learning iii the same way he did
when a tow-headed boy in the early
COS. OF course he could spell when he
tackled the typewriter, but not in the
same way. Now he distinctly emu
merates each letter, and does it. too,
with the greatest care. II is funny
thing, but he finds himself spelling
out the words in the newspaper, and
his wife says he spells them in his
sleep.
The other day the minister met him
end asked him how he was.
"Ve-r-y WE'LL" he gravely spelled
out, and when the pastor looked
amazed he realized what he had done
and hastily explained the cause of the
popularity. And the minister pro-
fessed to be greatly interested and
wanted to know all about it, and the
speller is now greatly worried for fear
the parson will write a special paper
on it for some magazine.
When the minister finally left him
he shook hands and said: Good by"
''G-o-o-d," began the speller, and
then recollected himself and hastily
added "by."
He hopes in time to wear out this
popularity, and when he increases his
speed on the typewriter he no doubt
will.

tails of the death on Tuesday of Will

the statements of Deputy Sheriff Pat
Sweeney. the cross-head on the Wright

bucket. While the men were at their
supper the cross-head froZe to the
guides. as has been stated. Gallagher
got on the bucket alone and was lower
ed to the 100-foot level. Here were
three men waiting to go to the bottom
OF the shaft. Gallagher remained stand
ing on the rim Of the bucket and wait
ed for the three men to get on. They
delayed for a moment about doing this
and hat delay saved their lives, for AT
that moment the c~ross-head fell, smash
ing Gallagher TO pieces.

A COOPERATIVE SCHEME.

Inches of Water.


Great Falls, Dec. 15.-The co-opera-

cording to a Burton correspondent the

SHEEP MEN ARE HOPEFUL
The Feeders Are the Only Anx-
ious Ones.
THE MARKET CONDITION
woolgrowers May Combine TO Keep
Prices Stiff In the Spring The
Winter So Far Has Been q
Favorable One.

Great Falls, Dec. 15.-Several OF the
heaviest owners of sheep in Northern
Montana have been visitors in the city
during the past week and very natural
ly the conditions of the business have
received more or less discussion. While
all OF them dlsclaim any ability to fore
tell prices for the coming season, all of
them seem to be very hopeful for better
things. Just at the present time the
feeders are the ones who have cause
for anxiety. One of the sheepmen said
this afternoon that while IL was a long
way ahead. he believed that the wool
growers who now had their 1898 CLIP
would make money by holding 1t
until after the spring clip. although. OF
course. 1t would not pay to hold it a
second year. He thought that at the
present time IT would pay to hold it n
second year. He thought that at the
present time the feeders were heavily
stocked on mutton. and as the combine
in Chicago a forced the price of
screenings from a normal basis OF 70
per ton to a price double that, the feed
ers were likely to lose a little n be-
come leary of doing any more buying
at the present. although those who had
made a practice of purchasing in the
spring. were not likely to be affect
ed by the high price OF wheat and the
importation of corn from Kansas would
soon relieve the feeders who had been
caught.
He also believed that the wool buy
ers had stocked up pretty heavily and
next spring would be inclined to com
bin for the sale on prices so that the
wool market at this and other points
was apt to open poorly, at the tame
time the price OF wool in Europe was
firm and the English brokers had with
drawn from the United States markets
the wool held here in ond rather thar
pay the tariff and put the staple of the
market in competition with American
wool. Add to these conditions the fact
that in his country The number OF
sheep on hand of a wool-bearing or a
mutton age was markedly reduced by
heavy sales during the past season
and he believed that the holding over
of the clip would be justified by a good
profit. After the spring purchases al
a low figure the market would assert
itself and the price of wool rise TO the
normal figure as soon as the shortage
in the supply began to show itself. The
rover agree that the winter so fal
has been very favorable to the sheep
although i'm some places the frost came
before the grass had matured and thu:
injured its quality.
