The wool markets evidently have
not yet recovered from the Fourth of
July celebration as no clips have
changed hands since that day. Most
Of the wool buyers have not yet re-
turned from Portland where they
have been to celebrate the national

will 10 all probability range from eight
TO thirteen CENTS and possibly as high

Ind his amazement can we'll be i'm
Igined when he saw half grown jack
'abbit strutting around the bar-room,
'eeking hiding place. 1t concealed
tself behind one of the open doors
where it was captured and placed in
. cage. 1t proved to be genuine

me brought the little animal in from
he country and it escaped, or il may
ave taken tie pass across one of the |
iill creek bridges and entered the
lotel, that being the first open door it
truck in its wanderings. Tom is
Iuite proud of his catch and will
resent the same to Tom Kelly jr.
