of the Northwest, the Salt Lake
Tribune has this piece of news.
James ]. Hill is now credited with

thought here that Mr.. Hills plan was to
connect Guernsey, Wyom ng with Sail

The SIGNAL has cited heretofore
the evident plan of Mr.. Hill to con
troll Pacific Coast traffic by having
access to the California ports equal

move cited by the Tribune, following
his orange ships from the Sound to
California, makes his determination
more forcible. This makes it almost
certain that present movements are
simply preliminary as the possibility

The ceremonies were conducted by
Council Commander E. NJ. Sybert who
made few appropriate remarks
Worthy Advisor H. J. Miller was Sc

Mr.. Millers effort was at once a proper
eulogy of the deceased member Of the

true-to-life commentary upon the no.

The monuments are handsome and

A NEW COMMERCIAL COURSE.
Park County High School Will Add a
Business Department to It's
Curriculum,
Especial to Inter Mountain.)

Especial to Inter Mountain)
Livingston, June Sat a special meet
ing of the board of trustees of the free
county high school, held at the office
OF County Superintendent Mrs. Nora
Colvin, it was decided to add a COM
mercial course to the curriculum of the
institution. The work will continue over
a space of three years. Pupils enter
ing the tenth grade will be given the
option of taking course preparatory
to entering a university, or of follow
ing plan of study fitting them for the
active duties Of the world. Cuorses in
commercial arithmetic, bookkeeping,
shorthand. typewriting. etc., will be
handled by an experienced teacher.
The instructor has not yet been Sc
lected. The board accepted the resigna-
ton of Miss Frances Tuition and Sc
lected in her stead Miss Fannie J.
Felver of Batavia, Ill. A resolution
was passed to the effect that hereafter
at least one of the assistant teachers
must be the graduate of a university
and capable of handling classes in Latin
and German.
The high school has made splendid
progress during the single year of it's
existence and it is doubtful if there is
similar institution in the state which
gives s-psapiIs- better instruction than
does the Park county school. 1t is the
intention of the board of trustees to
make the school the best in the state
ere their terms of Office expire.

Connecticut Valley Tobacco Market.

The warm, sunny weather of the past
two or three weeks is accomplishing
wonders in the growth of the tobacco.
During the past exceedingly hot week
we have seen the crops where the setting
was just finished, as we'll as those fields
where it has been hoed twice, where it is
nearly ready to commence to spindle, as
we'll as the lots of pieces all the way be-
tween the extremes. We bave examined
the several lots covered with cheeseclotn
and have to acknowledge our surprise in
noting the vast difference in the size of
the plants under cloth and outside.
Our correspondents write as follows:
Whately, June 27: Tobacco nearly or
quite all set and is in all stages of
growth, some just being hoed and quite
large quantity hoed twice; all growing
well. There is but little of the old goods
in town. L. F. Graves has 165 cases, all
force sweat, and Seth B. Crofts has II
acres of the 1900 CROP" South Deerfield:
"The tobacco all set and growing we'll.
Considerable building has been done as
in most other towns. There is some old
tobacco held here by Col. Boyden and
perhaps small lot or two by Others"
Northampton: 1.-The tobacco that we see
is looking fairly we'll though small yet,
but growing rapidly" Feeding Hills,
June 49, Tobacco doing nicely. A few
pieces in the edge of Suffield suffered
from cloudburst the 22d, having the
soil washed upon it, but by prompt work
that day and the one following the dam
age was remedied. Hoeing is we'll along.
No lack of moisture so far" Hinsdale,
N. H., July l: "There will be about 80
acres of tobacco grown here this vaar
Some are hoeing the second time, and
some have not finished setting. One
man has acres to set. Plants are abun-
dant, cut worms are in plenty; the
weather is hot and dry"

WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN, WIS, July II, 19

EDGERToN, WIS.,, July u, 1901.
The drouth and accompanying hot
weather has been disasterously severe
on the tobacco crop the past week
throughout the southern growing sec
tions. No advance has been made to-
wards completing the planting while the
whitening winds have parched and dried
up considerable that had previously been
rooted. Under such conditions growers
might as we'll consider the planting sea-
son closed and the vacant ground de-
voted to other crops. Rain has fallen in
a few sections, but generally speaking,
the tobacco crop is suffering from the
drouth. Soaking rains must come soon
to save anything like respectable por-
tion of the crop, and another week will
determine it's destiny in the southern
growing sections.
The excessive heat or some other rea-
son has had a depressing effect upon
the local cured leaf markets. No trans
actions of Importance among packers
have come to the surface. Business is
mainly confined to small lots to manu-
facturers. No sales from first hands
have come to notice. A good deal Of
work is yet being done about the pack
ing houses in this market, both in sort
ing, stemming and repacking.
The shipments out of storage this
week do not exceed 6OOcs II car loads
from this station to all points. Since
last report 015cs of cigar leaf were ex
ported from New York.

New YORK. July 6. 1901.
A combination of extraordinary condi-
tions tended to make the week just
closed one of the dullest on record. The
first day of the week was rebate-claiming
day and our manufacturers could not be
approached that day and tempted with
any bargain whatsoever. The fourth
day was holiday and the 100 degrees
in the shade on the other days were GER
tainly not the most inviting temperature
to examine tobacco. Nevertheless, a
moderate business was done in force
sweated Connecticut, Wisconsin and
Pennsylvania, all commodities which are
in immediate demand. Trading in Sum-
atra was likewise restricted from the
causes stated, but some big deals are
under way which, if arranged, will pro-
duce quite stir. The Havana market
is being depleted of available stock.
Most that is left is hardly fit for this
market and was probably brought in on
account of it's cheapness. Clear Havana
cigar manufacturers are trimming their
sails for the new crops.
