\ Big Wool Purchase.

W.. p. Gerrington. q prominent wool
dealer Of Boston, has just purchased
about 10000 pounds Of wool from the
Vermont Produce company. Men have
been busy the last day or two sackiug,
weighing and shipping the wool to
Boston. This consignment is an UNI
usually heavy one for this season, the
wool business in this section having
been pretty dull during the past few
years. Where the wooden mills at
Winooski used a million pounds Of
grease wool "a year II or 20 years ago,
they now use but a small fraction of
that amount, the greater quantity Of the
wool now used coming from the Chicago
stock yards in pulled or secured form.
This has changed the wool market in
this vicinity to Boston and Troy, and
sheep breeders are raising less and less
stock every year, there being little profit
in it at the present prices of wool. The
merinos are being superseded by the
SouthdOwns and other medium grade
sheep, and the wool shipped today is
nearly all Of the latter kind. 1t COM

A certain young man In Washington,

sociological and moral questions, and once
started in this hobby could scarcely be
headed in any other direction. He had
been quite devoted in his attention to one
young woman for as much as six months
but she had been unable to bring him to
his senses, though she was willing to CON
Tess that she had tried repeatedly TO do
so. OF course, she had done il in the deli
cate ways women have in those matters
but what he needed was a club
Not gre at while ago he was calling, as
usual and as usual he was neglecting

form they might appear

Major Roberts Shows Ills Gratitude
to G.d Friends.
OMAHA, Nov. 16.-An example of rare
human gratitude has just been disclosed
here. A veteran of the civil war having
inherited fortune, relurns to Omaha
purposely to reward his benefactors.
Major Roberts was with Sherman on
the march to the sea. Duty made it
necessary for him to go to Huntsville,
Ala. After Appomattox, he conceived
the notion OF returning TO Huntsville to
engage III the mercantile business Cali
ing two brothers to his aid, they jointly
embarked in all enterprise which in q
few years proved successful. Failing in
health, the major was compelled to go
to the mountains. Selling out his in
terest IN the business to his brothers, he
came west. He fell in with the gold
seekers in 1876 and migrated to the
Black Hills, where he invested his for-
tune and lost. After years of unsuc-
cessful efforts to recoup he drifted TO
Omaha and joined a local Grand Army
post. The major appealed to the G.. A.
r. for assistance and it was through
their influence that he was installed in
q pO54tAOA Ill bi0 SON0InulSuJ SSIN4CO-
AT last shadow came over his life.
He was accused of stealing money from
the government. Major Roberts was
convicted of stealing a small amount.
His old comrades made reparation, and
through their influence he was saved the
ignominy of felons cell
A year ago Major Roberts bid adieu
to his old comrades here and returned
to Huntsville, where his two brothers
lived in the enjoyment of independent
fortunes. They invited him to share
their bachelor quarters. Within eight
months of his arrival these brothers
died. Being without legal heirs, they
willed all their property to their brother
Placing his business affairs in shape,
Major Roberts purchasedE5 the bank at
Huntsville two drafts, each for S.. ZOO,
made payable TO his order. Putting
them in his pocket. he came to Omaha,
called upon MajorClark andCaptain Mar
tho, and presented each with draft
for $4,000 as token, he said, of his
gratitude for their manifold kindnesses
to him during his trials and troubles of
former years.
