During the past "a hours the fam
inc in sheep was broken by the en-
trance of 113 head, but this number
was too small for the trade to con-
slider as an influence or. general mar
ket conditions. - ~
There is a disposition among kill.
ers to send men to the country in an
effort to secure supplies Of sheep be-
cause 1t is impossible TO get shippers
TO send their stock to market at this
time. Good marketable sheep are
very scarce at country shipping points
Just now and there is not likely to be
much improvement in the situation
In the near future.
In its present position the local
sheep market is able 70 absorb lib
eral arrivals and still maintain the
price at the present high standing.
Sheep values are already at very
high point for this time OF the year
and buyers are not disposed to offer
any material advance in order to in
ruence shipments, because they say
they cannot secure that much for the
dressed product. .Today's run Of 1873
head compares with the absence of
arrivals since last Friday, when Sc
head were received. A week ago to-
day the arrivals of sheep were AIS

ANOTHER RUNAWAY.

The team hitched to a former trans fer wagon and driven by John Will Hams, ran away yesterday morning. re- sulting in two men picking themselves up from the middle of the road where they had been thrown, and a broken wagon. MT Williams was driving at a good rate of speed in a northerly di- rection. When he reached the park he made a very sudden turn to the right. in fact too sudden for himself for he kept going, showing that he did not understand what he expected to do. The man sitting on the seat did not like the situation and he began scram- bling for a place to light. When MT. Williams left the wagon he did not take time to hand the lines over. The team continued north and finally crossed the M & P. tracks into Mexico" where there was further ex- citement until the horses finally tan-- gled themselves up and were stopped.

 REGISTRATION ENDS-The regis tration for the city election closed on the stroke of F last night. There were 1889 names on the list. a gain of 210 over the registration of two years ago. The gain would, perhaps, have been greater if there had been the same strenuous effort to bring out the voters that there has usually been. It is es- timated that at least one hundred names were lost on account of the edu- cational qualifications law, which has been strictly observed by the city reg istering officers.

Morocco's Ruler Kept Busy.

Mulai Hafid, the new sultan of Mo-

the sun, and, save for short siesta,
seems never to have any leisure time
at all. He makes point of attending
personally to all state business, holds
reviews of his troops frequently, re-
ceives Populations from all parts of
the country, listens almost daily to
translations of long extracts from the
European newspapers and metes out
rewards and punishments He receives
many presents. A Fee correspondent
tells how the other day gifts in the
shape Of sacks of gold, bales of silk,
spices and jewelry poured in through
the palace gates ana the sultan re-
ceived the value of something like
$125,000 in the course OF this one
mornings reception. Among the
offerings was splendid ruby ring,
which seemed to take the royal fancy,
for he forthwith put it on his finger
and wore it during the remainder of
the day.

insane. The captain, he said, had
threatened to run boathook into him,
and to escape him he had spent one
whole night in the rigging.
But the most spectacular feature of
the Eclipse's cruise came to the view
Of the employees of the Chateau des
Beaux Arts, at East Neck, as the mists
Of dawn began to fade early yesterday
morning. They were out picking ciga-
rette butts off the front stoop, which
is their regular morning chore, when
they were hailed from the topmost
branches of tree near by in a gut
teral and uncertain tongue by a large
man in overalls, possessing a pair of
very primitive and impressive-looking
bare feet. He held on to the beer
bottle mentioned before, and an
nounced that he had just bought it
from, Murphy" and that it was very
good beer.
When the Beaux Arts employees had
decided that 1t was a man and not a
squirrel that was before them, they
felt they had good cause to presume
that the man was a bit mixed in his
dates. Two officers were summoned,
who took up the trail.
The man, meanwhile, had descended
from the tree and gone off Ito get an
other bottle from Murphy" The COM
bined sagacity of the local constabu-
larry soon led them to the track of the
man, and caused them to find him just
as he was knocking on the door of an
unused room in the cafe. He assured
the officers that the man inside owed
him $50. The police managed to lure
the wanderer away to the lookup.
He quieted down and ate. a hearty
dinner, after which doctor ques-
toned him. After quite a session he
ascertained that the mans name was
Albert Darn; that he is owner and
captain of the schooner Eclipse, en-.
gagged in freighting sand from Eaton's
Neck, and that his family resides at
Bridgeport.
He came to Eatons Neck in his
schooner with crew of two men. He
can give no explanation as to how he
came to cross over to the Beaux Arts
or how he got there.

Haffke reported the case and became

Northport, l.. 1.-The schooner
Eclipse of Bridgeport, Co1h., lies high
and dry on the shore of Huntington
bay, and her 6O-year-old captain, one
Albert Darn, is on his way back to
his home town under escort.
Somewhere between here and
Bridgeport there are two sailors,
haunted by the vision of large man
with bare feet, waving beer bottle
and calling for Murphy. Meanwhile
the sand on Eaton's Neck, with which
the schooner was to be loaded, lies
undisturbed in it's prehistoric stratas,
and Huntington folk are assured that
something has been happening.
Three days ago the good schooner
Eclipse dropped her hook in Hunting
ton harbor, of Port Eaton. Shortly, a
a man put out from her in skiff. and
on landing, was heard to call back to
the boat for pair of oars, saying he
had lost his.
The lone skiff operator later opened
conversation with Charles Longsworth
of local habitat as to the possibility Of
his being able to buy a pair of oars
in the village. Charles was not up on
the subject of oars, and gave him no
very valuable advice. Still later, the
sailor was seen propelling his skiff
back to the schooner by the aid of a
shovel, used as paddle.
Yesterday man went ashore
where some men are building a dock
on Eaton's Neck and asked for pas
sage to Northport, saying he was from
Bridgeport, Conn.,, and that he desired
to return home by train. He had been
on a vessel, he said, that had been
wrecked, and the captain had become
