people, organizing schools for
both boys and girls, and bring
ing real Christian light and
warmth to the hearts Of these
benighted people. To the sister,
a widow, and her children, DR..
Sinclair's residence in Durham
meant five years of love and
tenderness and helpfulness. The
sons were educated because the
Doctor uncle made it possible,
and the burdened life of the Sis
ter made brighter and happier.
The work proved too severe
a strain, however, on not too
strong constitution, and DR.. Sin
, clair was forced to return to
America, coming back two years
ago, when he revisited Redwood
Fails for the first time in many
years. Later he went to Bos-
ton in search of better health,
remaining at a sanitarium there
for several months. Finally he
took up his residence at New
burg, Ind, in home for retired
clergymen, spending several
months there. Several weeks
ago he came west visiting first
at the home of Sec. and Mrs. j.
A. Schmahl in St. Paul, and
from there to the J. P. Cooper
and F.>W. Philbrick homes here.
1t was while he was visiting at
the Philbrick home he was first
taken seriously ill and he went
from there to the hospital.
To eu.ogize "Dr. John" to the
people of Redwood Falls who
have known him so long and
loved him so well, is unneces-
sary and a wordy eulogy would
be note of discord in his life
of simple-mindedness and SIM
ple-living. His memorial is writ
large on the hearts and in the
memories of those whom he
loved to serve by kindly deed
and loving counsel. His monu-
ment is the memory of the poor
people of Redwood Falls and
other places, whom he so often
provided with food and clothing
and comforts, the love of his
friends and pensioners to
whom he gave-in charity Of
spirit richer than any material
gift-the comfort of hope and
good cheer, the admiration of
friends whom he made in later
years, who loved him for his
cherriness, his quaint sense of
fun, and his big humaness. The
service in his memory today will
be love feast in his honor,
lacking any note of regret at
his friends great loss, glad only
Of his great reward. .s:+.5s.ee.

family. He did this With more
generosity than foresight, and
when evening came he found
himself at the railway station
loaded with bundles, but with
no money for his fare to Wash
ington.
Somehow he got through the
gate and approached the con-
ductor. He laid the case before
him, and ended with a plea that
he might ride to Washington on
the platform of the baggage car.
The conductor, his heart warm
ed by the spirit of the season,
said, "All right, go ahead"
So Joe climbed on the plat
form of the car next to the en-
CINE. 1t was cold a night, and
it was on a road where the en-
CINE takes up water from a track
reservoir as it goes along.
When the train reached Wash
ington the conductor saw Joe
approaching, covered with ice
from head to foot, bundles and
al. He came up to the conduc-
tor and said, 81 sure does thank
you, boss, for muh ride. You's
very kind to allow muh to ride
up with you; but there's JUS one
question | want to ak. Kin yuh
tell me the name of that rivuh
we run through back there?''

SHEEP ARE NEGLECTED.
Flock Would Be Source of Profit
on Farms Where They Have
Not Been Encouraged

Sheep would be a source of
profit on many farms where
they have not been given at
tention. They are close-grazing
animals and as such will thrive
on short grass and rough land
where other animals would find
it difficult to live. Why not get
a few sheep and give them q
chance on your farm?

LIVERPOOL BUYING
STEADIES COTTON
Nervousness Over Mexican Stu
alton Checks Early Advance
Net Loss 9 to 4 Points.

Prospects for more favorable weather
and nervousness over Mexican affairs
checked an early advance in the cotton
market yesterday, and declines fol-
lowed. with the close barely steady at a
net decline of to points for the day.
General business was quiet and fluctua-
tions too narrow 10 suggest any ma
terial change of sentiment. with Oc-
tober contracts, for instance, ranging
between 1895 and 1888. Last prices
we're at practically the lowest point OF
the day.
The market opened steady at a de
cline of points to an advance Of 3
points. with near months relatively
easy. owing TO the relative weakness
of the cables. The decline in Liver
pool. however, was Offset by reports Of
a further decline in the ocean freight
rate. and houses with Liverpool con-
nections seemed TO have buying orders
in the market here. This led to an i'm
provement Of tone as the call pro
gressed, and prices sold 3 to 4 points
net higher shortly after the opening.
Liverpool buying orders were soon
supplied. and prices then turned easier
under scattering liquidation and Wall
Street selling. The continued showers
reported in the Eastern belt helped the
early advance, and there were also re-
ports that the crop was getting into
grass in some sections Of Alabama.
Such advices were not numerous
enough 10 make much impression on
prices. however, and the decline later
in the morning was promoted by the
outlook for clear weather in the West
ern belt, while the unsettled Mexican
situation may have accounted for some
scattered Wall Street selling.
Aside from the early Liverpool buy
ing. business seemed to be chiefly IN
the way of evening up scattering ac-
counts for over the week end. There
was some spot house selling of July,
but this was more generally attributed
to liquidation of old long accounts
than to fresh selling against intended
deliveries, and the offerings Of the near
month were absorbed by the covering
of Wall Street shorts.
The local spot cotton market was
quiet and unchanged on the basis of
1855 for mid-upland. Sales, $500 bales.

FIND BONES OF MAMMOTH
Scientists Also Find Petrified Forest
In Washington.

Bones Of a woolly mammoth who
roamed the plains of Eastern Washing
ton 100000 years ago at the very least
and stony wood from a newly discov-
cred petrifed forest that hourished
three or four million years before
Coulee City was founded have been
brought to the State Museum by Cura-
tor Frank S Hall and Dr. F. L. Pack
ard, of the geology faculty of the Uni
versity of Washington.
The presence of the mammoth bones
had been known since last fall, and II
was 10 examine them and TO discover
the condition of the skeleton and the
character of the soil in which they were
deposited that the scientists made their
excursion into Grant County. They
had no suspicion that the petritied for
est existed.
The bones were disclosed for the first
time by a road scraper, between Wilson
C.sef and Stratford. and the univer-
sity was notified by W. E. Southard, an
attorney Of Wilson Greek He assisted
Mr.. Hall and Dr. Packard In the eX-
cavation Of remnants Of the skeleton
last week.
Only leg and feet bones and por-
ton Of the vertebre were located. but
Curator Hall is of the opinion that the
rest of the skeleton can be found with
in a radius Of 100 feet. The numbering
creature had apparently been mired in
quicksand while drinking from a
stream. and it is presumed that food
waters scattered his remains.
The mammoth existed in the pleisto-
Gene period, which probably preceded
the appearance of man in this portion
Of the world. Its presence in Wash
ington is no great surprise, four speci-
mems having been obtained near Spo-
kane. 100 miles TO the eastward. some
years ago. The Chicago Academy Of
Science restored one of the skeletons
and offered 10 10 the University Of
Washington, but the university lacked
the funds to take it over. II is now in
the Field Museum.
