Record Prices for Wool.

It is worth noting that under the
Democratic policy Of free wool and a
moderate tariff on woolen goods the
American Woolen company has for the
first time began to pay dividends on
SIS common stock, which probably rep
resents little underlying value. Such
an outcome does not jibe with the
prophecies OF Senator Penrose and
other apostles Of woe, but is an inter.
esting economic fact just the same.

value of real property coming under
a taxable classification and does not

also that the average citizen approach

our readers.
There were at the time of the 1915
assessment, 26,457 horses, mules and

more than $40 apiece. 94,350 cattle
were included in the assessment at

HAVANA HAD PROSPEROUS
TOURIST SEASON
(By Associated Press J

Havana, March 2S--The tourist
season now drawing to a close has
been by far the most prosperous that
Havana has ever seen the number
of visitors from the United States ex-
ceeding by thouands that of any
previous year and taxing to their ut
most capacity the steamship lines
from New York. Key West and New
Orleans. This has been due in part
to the attractions of the fine racing
track, inaugurated last year at Mar
ianao under unfavorable weather
conditions, but in the main to the
closing of all European resorts and
the seriius interference of traffic with
the other West Indian Islands due to
to the withdrawal of the German and
British tourist steamers
During the height of the rush
southwark all the hotels in Havana
were so crowded that many visitors
were compelled to find shelter for the
night aboard the ships on which they
arrived This has given rise TO a
renewal of the long discussed pro
iect of the erection in Havana of at
least one tourist hotel of magniii-
cent proportions and of variius other
plans to increase the attractins OF
the city Several crcellent hotel
sites are available but it would hard
ly be possible to complete a building
by the beginning of next year and
fears are expressed that should the
war come to a conclusion the rush
of tourist traffic would instantly set
Europewa-d and so continue for
years to come.

(By Associated Press)

London, March 2S-Lady Florence
Baker, widow of Sir Samuel White
Baker, author and explorer, who died
recently at Newton Abbot, Devon at
"a years of age, was known as one
of the most daring explorers. In 1861
she accompanied her husband upon
an expedition for the discovery OF
the Nile sources. The party went
on without interpreter or guides and
in defiance of the opposition of the
slave hunters who attempted to bar
their progress. She also accompanied
her husband when he commanded an
expedition to Central Africa organ
ganized by the Khedive for the sup
preston of the slave traffic. She was
the first white woman, as her hus-
band was the first white man, to set
foot in the region Of the Albert Ny
