and last year brought the highest dur

Sixty-three sacks of wether and
yearling wool and 33 sacks OF eve
and one of tags consisting of $4,000
pounds, the clip of A. Wagner, was
also sold to the same firm for 1873

NO SALES IN BILLINGS.
Buyers Went to Big Timber-saies
on Other Markets.
From Sundays Daily Gazette.

From Sundays Daily Gazette.
All the wool buyers went to Big
Timber yesterday and the local mar
ket was accordingly quiet, no sales
being reported. The buyers went up
on a special train, returning in the
same manner last night at 1880
o'clock. They report the days sales
at Big Timber as having amounted
to about 100000 pounds, the prices
ranging from liz cents to 1875 cents,
the majority of clips going at prices
from liz to 1914 cents.
All the clips were small. Another
trip will be made to that place in
about two weeks, but the buyers
think that will be the last, as it does
not pay them to go there when SO lit
tie wool is placed on sale. It is 2
repetition of last year. There is
about 1,OOO,O 00pounds in storage al
that point, with possibly 25O,OOt
pounds more to come.
Tomorrow bids fair to be the bus
lest day of the season, as some O.
the largest clips will be placed OF
sale together with many OF the
smaller ones. Some of the clips arr
expected to go above the prices
which have so far been paid, and j
will not be surprising if the 15 cen
mark is reached.

PASSING. OF CALAMITY"
From Hurdy to Mansion a Trail
But Few May
Travel.

IN a glory OF anu J.
crowned with a halo of fiction, due
to the persistent efforts Of space
writer's and contributors to the lurid
literature which of recent years has
been written as truthful sketches Of
the history of the west, Calamity
Jane has risen from the welcome
~obscurity of hundreds of women OF
her class who have drifted wrecks on1
what Yves once the frontier, but which
passed with the passing of the buffalo
and the stage coach, and her name is
known to- almost every man, woman
and child in the United States. Col
umns of the most absurd stories have
been written about her, yet with the
solemn assurance that they represent
ed only an infiniteisimal portion OF
her startling experiences and thrill
ing adventures. To those who have
known poor, old Calamity" duringth the
years she has spent in the various
mining camps and small towns dot
ing the line marking the eastern adj
vance of civilization and develop
ment these stories are amusing and
serve only as another example of the
wonderful powers of imagination
when fancy is permitted to run wild
and no restraint is placed upon the
scope of is wanderings. Where she
has been made the subject Of the ro-
mancer's fancy, others of her kind
have come and gone, filed unmarked
graves or live forgotten and unknown
in the towns and settlements into
which they finally drifted when per.
sonal effectiveness and the power to
entertain and amuse the rough men
with whom they formerly associated
had left them. Those who are dead
are at peace with this world, and il
is to be hoped restful and happy in
4 the other, those who are still among
. the living are content to exc out theil
miserable existence while waiting te
respond to the summons that comes
to all. Some have changed thei1
? names and ask only to be left alone
= They do not care to have the pas
revived and do not seek for the nc
g toriety on which old Calamity ha
thriven since the years when tn
