BOSTON WOOL. MARKET

The wool market continues quiet,
and some grades are a trifle lower
than~a fortnight agos In general,
prices are steadily held for worsted
wools, especially those of domestic
origin, but the woolen mills are not
yet ready to operate freely, and pulled
and secured woods suitable for their
use are easier Australian auctions
continue easy in tone, although Sgd
ney rallied somewhat at the end Of
November. The first half of the Aus
tralian season is nearly over and good
clearances have been made, with sub
stantial advances in values. The
London wool sales are fairly strong,
with few withdrawals. France is still
an important factor in London and
primary markets. America is buying
more wool in Australia as the better
woods come to market, although cur
rent purchases cannot be brought IN
and turned over at profit at going
rates here. Manufacturers and the
goods trade are making a drive for
lower prices, although Boston is still
below the parity of both London and
Australian markets. New develop
ments are lacking in the goods trade,
and nothing particular is expected un-
til the overcoating season gets into
full swing.
Consumption of wool during Oc-
tober was 40,367,482 pounds, compar-
ed with 1888, 500 pounds in Septen-
ber, according to the bureau of the
census. The woolen spindles, num-
bering 1905, ,092, were operated at 82.2
per cent of capacity, compared with
ST. per cent in September, and the
worsted spindles, numbering 1892
293, were operated at 1913 per cent
of capacity, against 60.6 per cent in
September.

The eighteenth annual Christmas
seal sale for the support of the anti
tuberculosis movement throughout
the nation had its start in Flagstaff,
December fifth under the supervision
of the sociology class of the college.
This cause demands the earnest
consideration of the people of Flag
staff for a selfish reason if no other.
There are in and about Flagstaff over
a hundred children who are markedly
predisposed to tuberculosis, a large
percentage of whom viii become cases
Of tuberculosis if not provided with
the type of prevention which the Red
Cross furnishes.
The college is rapidly nearing the
100 per cent mark in subscriptions,
several groups having paid 100 per
cert, Campbell hall being the first to
report this distinction.
The seals are on sale at all drug
stores and in many other business
houses and will remain so until
Christmas. An effort is being made
to exceed all previous gross sales for
Flagstaff. Watch the big thermom-
eter on the postoffice building. Let's
make it necessary to build a new
thermometer to record the sale in
flagstaff.
A charity ball to raise funds for the
Red Cross will be given in Ashurst
auditorium ON December Is. Besides
helping a worthy cause the attendance
at this social event will be thing
long to remember for the pleasure de-
rived.
Adrian M. Newens presented "a
Message From Mars" by Richard
Ganthony in Ashurst auditorium on
Wednesday,. 1t was given with a
polish and perfection that has not
been heard in Flagstaff for some

ices can be secured for the lyceum
again.

body this week with the announce
naent that she was leaving N. A. /. G..
to accept a position in speech and
dramatic work in state normal

Overflow Pipe Now
Sending Water Into
South Side Creek

At a special meeting OF the City
Council on May 18th the matter OF
flushing the creek. commonly known
as Sugar Creek, on the south side
OF the railroad tracks vas discussed.
1t vas brought out that due to the
small AMOUNT OF water in the creek
1t was endangering the health of the
residents on the South Side in that
for years the creek has been used
as a " disposal. II was decided
to run an overflow pipe from the
water tank TO the creek and the lat
ter part OF last week this was done
and the water IS now flushing the
creek.
Also at the special meeting 81 was
decided to tap In a line 20 the east
end Spruce street main and run the
water to the tourist camp ground
for irrigating purposes. From there
the water will be ditched to Sewer
lake and in this way flush that place.
In the very near future this con-
nection will be made.

W
BBE LADY
ON SATURDAY

Two masked men held up Mrs. w.
X. Goostree in the rear of her home
at 800 West Spruce street about
1915 Saturday last and took three
diamond rings. two other rings and
a pearl necklace, the value of which
is between $500 and $500. The
men made their escape and to date
have not been apprehended.
On Saturday night Mr.. and Mrs.
Goostree returned to their home and
had driven their car through the al
ley and into the yard, preparatory to
driving into the garage To open
the garage it is necessary to go
through the house and into the gar
6 which opens from the inside. AS
is their usual custom Mr.. Goostree
opens the garage while his wife sits
in the n and waits until 1t is driven
into the garage and then they go into
the house together.
Mr.. Goostree had gone into the
house when he heard his wife
scream When he reached the car
his wife had tainted. lie began rub
bling her hands and in doing SO he
noticed that her rings were zone. In
a short time she came to- and told

who had heard her scream and had
gathered at the car, what had hap
pened.
She stated that her husband had
barely gone around the corner of the
house when "A man came up on each
side of the ear. They both had guns
and were masked. One of them said
Don't scream and take off those
rings" 1t is believed that Mrs.
Goostree tainted and the men took
the rings and necklace and made
their getaway.
The robbery was reported to the
local officers me they Were at the
home by 1890 but were unable to
find any trace of the g 1t is very
probable that the men have been in
Rawlins for some time and have
watched the Goostrees and knew
their habits of entering the garage,
thus their plans were made accord
ingly.
