Boston. Aug. ii, lN6.
The receipts OF wool for this week were
2.245 bales foreign and 1851 bales domes-
tic against 6762 bales foreign and 3S.Hi
bales domestic for the same time last
year.
Remarks: There is rather more bust
ness in wool In this city this week than
there has been lately. but there are sew
eral houses that still report trading to be
quiet, and the concerns thai have been
busy find the demand to he great deal
better for combng clips than for the So
called clothing wuols. The latter are by
no means neglected: in fact. stock that
can lie worked by a frcrch comb has
very nearly good call as longer
fibcrnd stuff but the position of clothing
wc"ls as ii class is not nearly as satisfac-
first place. is unusually large. partly be-
cause of q heavy surplus from last sea
son. but also because of the fact that
this wears domestic clips Sn"w much
larger percentage Of ShOrt-fibered clips
than usual! PesiGns, worsted fabrics r"-

of the week. The demand for choice
beef is excellent and for these grades
good prices are obtained compared with
previous years, but the detriment to a
profitable trade to exporters is a this

high prices. and for the ordinary
grades which are selling at fair prices,
the demand abroad for is very slow

who is lady of refinement and delicate
taste, concluded few weeks ago to
have her home remoddled. She consult
ed the Governor and he told her to en-
ploy mechanics and make any changes
she desired and he would see that the
bills were satisfied. The work was be-
gun. The old varanda which stood in
front of the residence was removed to
the north side of the building and a
new, handsome porch with artistic
columns placed in its stead. The fancy
work about the varanda is especially at
tractive In fact the whole dwelling
was made almost new. All the wood
work has been painted, Mrs. Hindman
selecting the paints, being ordered from
a Detroit, Michigan firm. The roof is
deep red and the varandas largely white
and the body of the house is maple leaf
brown. 1t is one of the most delight
full homes in this section of Kentucky.
