Unsatisfactory Week.

easier on clears Demand is moderate
Mllers report the week about such a one as
the preceding week, general unsatisfactory as
to sales. Foreign business is hard to land
and some bids received to-day were very
much out of line. The domestic trade con-
tinues buying, but there is some disposition
shown to hold orders down to the minimum.

HIDES, FUR AND WOOL
Review of the Market by the North
- western Hide and Fur Co.

Chicago and Boston have reduced prices on
buff hides nc. Tanners say they cannot
afford to pay asking prices unless they can get
an advance on leather, which, they say, is
out of the question. This makes dull mar
ket to trade on. No change has been made
here yet AS the quality of hides is improving
fast, being short haired, it is expected old
prices will be obtained later on.
Wool is arriving very freely for this time
of year. No change in prices. Considerable
old wool. held over, has been coming in It
is evident that wool growers think wool won t
do enough better in the near future to war
rant holding longer. The last two years those
who sold promptly did best Receipts will in
crease rapidly from now on Growers are
finding out that there is no better wool market
than Minneapolis, this being cash market,
even though apparently low, there being no
commission, interest or storage, it yields
better returns than commission firms give
in other markets.
No change on pelts, furs, roots, tallow or
feathers worthy of note ..s- : .-

THE THREE FISHERS.

Three fishers went sailing away to the west
Away to the west as the sun went down
Each thought on the woman who loved him best
And the children stood watching them out OF the
town:
For men must work. and women must weep;
And there's little to earn and many to keep,
Though the harbor bar be moaning.
Three wives sat up in the lighthouse tower.
And they uimm'd the lamps as the sun went down
They lookd at the squall and they looRd at the
shower;
And the night-rack came rolling up, ragged and
brown
But men must work. and women must weep
Though storms be sudden and waters deep,
And the harbor bar be moaning.
Three corpses lay out on the shining sands
In the morning CLEAN as the tide went down.
And the women are weeping and wringing their hands
For those who will never come home to the town.
For men must work, and women must weep
And the sooner its over, the sooner to sleep
And good-by to the bar and its moaning
CHARLES KINGSLEY.
