IS Progressing
SEASIN IF 1922 WILL SOON CLOSE.
MARKET LESS ACTIVE But VERY
FIRM. LOCAL SALES

The week just closing in the Raw
Inns wool market has shown no
sign of weakness. On the contrary
the reports which are regularly re-
ceived from every quarter have
tended to strengthen the belief that
there will be no recession from the
higher price levels which have been
set and generally maintained since
the 1922 clip began to be absorbed
by an eager market.
But n sale of consequence has
been reported during the week, that
of the Standard Meat e. Livestock
company by the terms of which ap-
proximately 125.000 pounds at 3S
cents changed hands. The clip of the
Fremont company sheep was sold a:
,Wamsuter for 50 cents. This totaled
about $4,000 pounds.
A general review of the wool stu
alton shows that eastern markets
have been rather less active but very
firm. Western markets continue ac-
tive and prices are holding firm a
recent levels. Ths foreign markets
are easier on topmaking merint
woods but firm on good combine
and crossbred descriptions. while
Bradford reflects the easier condi

NEBRABKA'S aCHAlN"
BANDIT Is REPORTED
HEADED FOR RAWLINS

The Omaha murderer and lunatic.
who Is travelling under the names of
Brown and Grimes, and who has been
blazing Q sensational trail of con-
sternation in Nebraska. turned up in
Cheyenne yesterday and is thought
to be heading westward from there,
presumably along the Lincoln High
way. although he may elect to make
a detour north or south from the
main line in order to escape what
would seem to be certain capture. II
he continues on the main travelled
road. A total Of $4,000 in rewards
offered for his capture lends added
interest to his future movements.
Since leaving Omaha Grimes, or
Brown, encountered two officers at
Sidney and got the drop on them
and left them securely tied to a barn
while he made a quick and success
full getaway. He turned up next
at Kimball, late Tuesday night and
later at Cheyenne, where dozens of
officers were on the lookout for him.
Either Grimes is an exceptionally
"foxy" criminal. or the Cheyenne Of
ficers were asleep at the switch, for
early this morning Sheriff Sanders
received word that the mailman had
played a short but spectacular en-
gagement there and had departed.
He was said to have discarded the
Dodge car in which he has been trav-
cling westward and stolen a Nash
sport model. which is described as
having a black body with yellow
wheels He also broke into a gar
age and helped himself to tires and
such accessories as he needed for
his trip.
A representative of the Nebraska
state constabulary was in Rawlins
Tuesday and conferred with Sheriff
Sanders regarding the capture Of the
"chain bandit whose exploits have
now attracted attention throughout
the West. He returned to Cheyenne
to assist the officers there.
Carbon county officers are on the
alert and all avenues of escape are
carefully guarded so that Grimes, or
Brown, or whatever his name happens
to he. will meet up with a warm re-
ception II his ramblings take him in
to this vicinity. A guard hay been
stationed at the Fl. Steele bridge
and also at other strategic points in
the county.

During the period covered by the
report there have been an average of
slightly in excess of 10 patients in
the Memorial Hospital at all times,
the highest record for one day being
20. and the lowest 10. Fifty major
operations have been performed dur
ing the six months and 81 minor
ones. .
This hospital serves two classes of
patients and serves each class in ex-
actly the same efficient manner;
those who can pay and those who
cannot. There have been 25 county
cases cared for and 1875 cases which
have paid their way. Since the in
stallation of the X-Ray apparatus
there have been 43 X-Ray pictures
taken, which shows the necessity of
this modern addition to the equip
ment of a well-regulated hospital.
The financial feature OF the report
shows a healthy condition and indi-
Gates business-like management.
The amount collected during the
six months is S4,927.3O. Bills out
standing show a total Of ~$1,367.OO
and bills against Carbon County ST.
921.15, a grand total of $8,215.45.
A contract has been entered into on
behalf Of the Hospital management
with the Union Pacific system.
whereby all railroad cases originating
on this division will be treated here
at Memorial.
Among the leading business and
professional men in the community
the sentiment is very favorable to
the hospital as at present managed,
as well as to the field Of public use
fulness which will continue to be
filled by that institution. Dean r.
F. P~hilbrook, pastor Of the Episcopal
church ia one Of the most enthus-
tastic in his praise Of the hospital.
He says that he has visited there
nearly every day since it was ooened
and has found the service in every
exceptionally good and the
patients loud in their praise Of the

clothing and many are dying daily
for the want Of these prime neces-
stiles Of life. The appeal has come
to Rawlins and the matter is in
earnest, honest and capable hands.
Some member OF some of the com.
mlttees will call on you. for a sub.
scription for flour as explained in
The Republican last week, or for
clothing. new or cast-off.
But you don't have to wait for
the committee. Fill out the coupon
