Boston, July :.
Tie receipts Of wool for this week were
1921, 40 lbs. domestic ana 1.SD.6N lbs:
foreign. against S,3a.l,3 lbs. domestic ant'
5I2l3l lbs foreign for the same week last
year.
REMARES-Whilc still quiet the wool
market shows some improvement, and
more wool has been sold during the week
than has been the case of late. Not only
has this been true. but the business has
been well distributed, not only in the
number of the buyers but also in grades
This is perhaps the most encouraging
feature of the improved conditions. for
il was recognized that the quietness pre-
yiouSly prevailing was largely due to IN,
fact that the wool now coming forward
were able to offer only Il very small Sc
lection to the current buyer. 1he ne"
woods are coming forward very slowly
and a large part of the receipts Is Dcint
shipped right out again to the mInutar

Ii vas expected, Sunday, that several
Of the launches Of the Augusta Yacht
Club WOULD leave their moorings, this
morning, to Join the others at their

OF the captains gave the trip up rather
than to start, so late. Fleet Captain l..

into readiness early in the morning.

O'Clock. With the beautiful weather OF

GENERAL HAwLEY DYING

Lying In Semtconseious Condition and
Cannot Last Long.
Washington, March 17.-General Jo-
seph r. Hawley, who retired from the
senate on March last after a service
of "a years, and who was made briga-
dier general on the retired list OF the
United States army by congress in rec
ognition Of his valiant services during
the Civil War, is lying,at his residence
in this city extremely i'll.
General Hawley had occasional Pc
riods of semi-consciousness and appar-
emily was a little stronger. His system
responded we'll TO stimulants, but no
hope is held out that he will last any
length of time.
Mr.. Hawley was stricken with sink
ing spell Wednesday afternoon and
lapsed into a state Of coma, in which
condition he remained until yesterday
afternoon, when he rallied slightly and
appeared for a short time to be con-
scious. He was later in the same con-
dition in which he had been for the
previous "a hours. He is apparently
without pain and is breathing feebly.
Mr.. Hawley's fourth term as United
States senator was ended on the 3rd OF
this month, on which day his name by
special act OF congress was placed on
the retired list Of the army as a briga'
dier general.

For what Is Popular government in

Not government according TO the

and THE makors OF the Constitution
meant that the Presidential electors
should be real electors, not mere proxies
and puppets.
A Congress OF two chambers. the
members Of one of which represent the
States, and are chosen by the Degis-

Mr.. Bryan is the Nebraska Jeffer-

neither under jefferson or jackson was

Neither Jefferson nor Jackson would
have had any use for such a govern

How the Generals. Famous WOrl
Came 80 the Hnrpers. S.


How the Generals Famous work
Came 80 the HarpeFs.
The death Of General Lew wallace
recalls the. circumstances OF his first
visit to the establishment OF Harper &
Bros. in New York with the manu-
script Of "Ben-Hur'' under his arm. He
was personally unknown to the Har-
pers at that time, and after introducing
himself he explained to Mr.. ]. Henry
Harper that he had written a book
which dealt with the life of Christ. Mr.
Harper asked him II Christ actually
appeared in the story, and General
Wallace replied that he did. Mr. Har-
per then remarked that this subject
was a delicate one to treat in a novel,
and General Wallace answered that IL
there were anything in the story which
could offend fellow Christian he
would rather. cut Off his right hand
than publish it.
He then explained to Mr. Harper
that the book had resulted from a spir-
tied controversy he had held with Rob
ert G. Ingersoll on the subject Of rell-
gion, in which Ingersoll had defeated
him In argument. General Wallace
went away from the discussion with
troubled mind. For some time he con-
templated writing a theological work
which would strengthen religious faith
at the point OF Ingersolrs brilliant at
tack. But he decided that theologians
could do that work much better than
he, and besides his desire was to reach
and help the masses. He lay awake by
night pOnderlng the question which had
taken possession OF his mind and event
ually decided to write a religious novel
In which he could embody his under
standing Of religious truth. Ben Hur'
was the result. When General Wallace
had told these interesting facts to Mr..
Harper he left the manuscript, express
ing the hope that his own estimate Of
the work would be indorsed by the
house
The manuscript was read In the usu-
al way by the readers OF the firm and
was promptly accepted. General Wal
lace told Mr.. Harper later on that he
had written the book in all sorts of out
OF the way places-on boats, railroads,
in carriages, wherever he had an op-
portunlty-afterwa correcting and
revising with the utmost patience and
care. 1t seems astonishing that he had
