sented the wit and beauty, the chivalry

THE PRICE OF SHEEP

The present high prices of sheep will
continue for some time to come. Prices
for wool being maintained at the present
high level, manufacturers have lately ad-
vanced prices on their goods to a point
which shows them a fair profit, ard the
increased demand for good mutton will
continue. The short supplies of wool on
the markets will have a STRENGTHENING in
iluence. Montana wool is being contracted
now in large Quantities at from 10 to 22
cents per pound. Large bands of ewes
have sold in Montana from So. so to $500,
lambs at from 200 to 2.25. In New Mex
leo breeding sheep are not to be had at
any price, as the lucky holders of that class
OF stock are making money as fast as they
can. The future for the sheep industry in
this Territory is truly encouraging

San Antonio and Galveston, The road
will he known as the Tucumcai, Texas &
Gulf A prominent broker of New York
City has promised to float the bonds as
soon as the organization of the company is
perfected. There is no doubt but that the
road will be built 1t will penetrate
portion of the State of Texas that is prac-
tically isolated and without transportation
facilities, and is at this time rapidly de-
veloping into an agricultural country.
Connecting at this place, as it will with the
Rock Island, it will become feeder for
that line in traffic to the Pacific coast and
will open up direct eastern outlet for the
vast Dawson coal fields.

this church was known in the South
Carolina conference as Rock church,
being originally built on rocks Of
Stony Rum on the hill by which
stream it stood, but now it is called
Wells church. On these same
grounds IS Wells school, whose teach
er, Miss Matte Jackson, closed her
second term last Saturday with a most
creditable entertainment Of recitations
songs and dialogues. 1t is exceeding
ly hard to say which deserved most
praise-all were perfect. The song,
Sleep Baby Sleep" by seven little
girls dressed in long Mother Hub
bards, white aprons and caps, swinging
while singing doll babies, was GER
tainly most comical. And the way the
school rallied to the Bonnie Blue Flag
was inspiring. The recitation, 1.-The
NJ orning After the Ball. was acted
so we'll and seemed natural enough
for that young lady to be put on the
."old maids" list before many years
roll around.
After. all these treats came: fine
address from Col. ]. Harvey Wilson
on education, and I hope parents and
children were all inspired to press
forward.
Still this was not all for among the
green trees was built a regular ex-
tension table (from its lengthy and
~ the time all trunks, boxes and bas-
kets were emptied it was loaded with
good things to eat and there was a
large crowd to eat it, and not drop
