Different Grades Iiring Fuir Prices In the Big Market Center. The Livestock World of Chicago, in speaking of the sheep market In that city for the past week, Bays: Sheep and lamb trude was steady, fairly active on desirable grades, stronger to a little , higher on some thin-skinned handy weight sheep, but closed draggy. Receipts, estimat ed at 25,000, promised to fall a little short. Colorado fed Mexican lambs sold up to $7.85, or last week's top, and clipped fed westerns tov $6.70 Clipped yearlings mode $5.85, clipped wethers $5.60, and ewes $5.20. Wooled sheep, especially If weighty were discriminated against, and mar keting these with the wool on does not seem good policy from this time on. Spring lamb trade was In the same unsatisfactory condition and largely on a catcn-as-catcn-can casts, some desirable stock sold at 11 cents, prices ranging from that figure down to 6 cents for monkeys. Bulk of supply was from western feed lots. Natives were mostly lambs, few nearby sheep coming. Oood to holce native clipped lambs were quoted at JS ft 6.60, although few of the lntter are available. Natives are so few as to have little Influence In price-making. Yearlings sold up to $5.85, handy weights being preferred, and practi cally all offerings being shorn. Bulk of wethers are quotable at . $5.25 5.76, with the wool off. Bulk of clipped wethers sold at $5.265.35, with $5.60 quotable on export stuff, wooled sheep were scarce and found no urgent demand, band of mixed wethers and year lings found no takers at $6, but would have sold readily shorn at $5.25. Western ewes clipped made $5.20, but had to be light, finished and thin skinned, to do it, in fact, $5 was an outside price, with the exception of these, on good clipped ewes, the bulk selling at $4.505. The $5.20 stuff wns farmer-fed and of super-excel lent quality. An Ohio shearer paid $7.40 for two louhles of wooled lambs. Few spring amhs arrived, but there were evl neatly enough to meet the somewhat meager demand. Eastern mutton markets were re ported in bad condition. A band of wooled wethers an yearlings made $5.90. This kind 0 stuff met discrimination. Alaska Will Exhibit. The suggestion by Mr. Chealande that every town or section in Alaska should send something to the Port land fair, Is one that should be for lowed. If each town or section of the district would send an exhibit that would portray those things upon which It depends for its existence and for Its hope of the future, Alaska would have an exhibit that would be the marvel of the visitors to Portland, and one that would bring many peo ple and much capital to the north.

April 19 the New York packers advanced the price of meat horizon tally on all kinds and grades, one-half cent Interesting Letter From New York City New York, April 19. "The golden age of charity" Is what Robert W. Hebburd, secretary of the state de partment of charity, terms the pres ent era of philanthropy. Few per sons realize, he says, that $50,000,000 Is expended In charity In New York Btate every year. To understand the evolution It Is necessary to go back to the first provisions made here for the poor In 1641, when all that went to the poor was the penalties collect ed for selling unpolished wampum. Vagrants and beggars In the early Dutch times were dangled from gal lows as objects for ridicule. The first almshouse in New York was built by Peter Stuyvesant at Al bany In 1652. The first built In this city was erected In 1735 on the pres ent site of the city hall. The second structure for the poor was built on Chambers street, with $50,000 won by the city In a lottery. There was an early custom requiring the poor to wear red or blue badges on their sleeves, and also a harsh pro vision In the early settlement laws by which poor settlers could be forci bly taken back to the town which they had left and publicly whipped. All this is changed, for the poor now must be relieved where they are and the expense paid by their native place. Ignace Paderewskl Is a great ad mirer of little Von Vecsey and thinks that In the future the boy's powers will make him a great performer. Paderewskl wanted to send the lad a present from New York the other day and consulted Daniel Frohman, sug gesting a watch as a suitable gift. Mr. Frohman was able to recall seven watches that had been presented to Von Vecsey this season, so M. Pade rewskl selected a gold knife for him On the heels of the news that the National Art club will move next fall to Gramercy park and take possession of Governor Tllden's residence, comes the purchase of the corner house, Gramercy Park and Irving Place by the Columbia University club. The Arts, the Players and the Columbia will thus occupy a long stretch of East Twentieth street, fronting north of Gramercy Park. If the Lotus club should close with one of the numer ous offers for its Fifth avenue house in order to obtain larger quarters on Gramercy Park, that part of the bor ough would not, indeed, lose any of the quiet which is Its charm, but It would form more than ever the cen ter of a neighborhood for residences of people who like to be near their favorite club. One of the forgotten points of in terest In the lower end of the city Is the old "Schreyers Hook." This was the "Capske" or Cape rock which Jut ted out Into the river at a point a lit tie north of South Ferry, and which is now included In Battery Park. Here was the first dock, and here the set tiers greeted new arrivals and said farewell to those about to depart It took Its name from the "Schreyers Hook" In Amsterdam, a similar point projecting Into the harbor, where the burghers said boodhye to their friends who were about to sail. Because of the mournful scenes enacted there It came to be known as "Schreyers Hook," or "weeping point." ATTRACT SETTLERS TO TEXAS. Immigration Movement on Large Scale Launched at Galveston. Galveston, Texas, April 21. A big convention, having for its object the attracting of northern settlers to the south and southwest, was opened In Galveston today.

Culberson: "Opportunities In Louisiana." Hon. James G. Lee; "Undeveloped Resources of the Gulf Coast Country." Prof. H. P. Attwater The convention will conclude Its bus iness tomorrow. EUGENE'S HAIL STORMS. IVult Trees Stripped By Stones Two Inches In Diameter. Yesterday afternoon a very severe hail storm occurred on the McKenzie extending from about Leaburg to the McKenzie free ferry, says the F.ugene Guard. Stephen Smeed, who resides a mile above the ferry, was In town today getting sashes refilled with glass, and from his account It was a great deal like the storm that came from that locality four years ago, occurring at the same time In the day. It passed over Mr. Smeed's place at 4:10 o'clock. Hall stones an Inch and a half In di ameter fell, and extended to the fer ry, a mile farther down the river. His fruit trees were stripped of their blossoms and the few hop vines bat tered. The 1901 Hall Storm. It is a reminder of the record breaking hall storm originating In the same locality four years ago. Saturday afternoon, May 25, 1901 about 4 ' o'clock, a hail storm origin atlng In the Cedar Flat country. 1 short distance southeast of the free ferry, moved almost directly west, ex pending its main force in the vicinity of Springfield, that town requiring several hundred panes of window glass to replace the breakage. Fruit trees were stripped of fruit and leaves and gardens were riddled. The CanTpbell & Walker hop yard was di rectly In the path of the storm, and with few exceptions the vines with four to eight feet of growth were bat tered and ruined, In many Instances cut from the ground. The Dorrls, N'els, St. John and Cheshire yards also sustained more or less damage. In Eugene ordinary hall fell, but in the Springfield bottom chunks of flat Ice up to two Inches in diameter formed a considerable part of the ex hibit. The. tender balm buds and leaves were macerated and stripped from the trees along the river, and with the battered fir leaves produced an exquisite perfume for hours after ward. Several teams caught by the storm in the Springfield bottom were running away at the same time, the beating ice rendering them uncon trollable. Several farmers had their grain greatly injured. Chase, the gardener, had about $150 worth of glass broken on his green houses. A GAMBLER'S LAYOUT. Devices Which Fools Play Against In Gambling Games. Deputy Sheriff Bailey raided a rear room on the second floor of a lodging house in the lower, part of town about 5 o'clock this morning and captured two men smoking opium. He also secured a full layout, with the exception of the pipe. In place of this the fiends used a rubber tube, through which they inhaled the fumes, says a Wardner dispatch. They gave their names as W. S. Reed and George Milot. Neither of them has been around Burke long, although Milot had been . here before. From papers taken from Milot's per son it was learned that he had lived about Wardner for some time. Two pawn tickets were found In Mi lot's possession that called for a faro layout and card holdout. An Inspec tion of the contrivances at the pawn shop showed each to be most ingeni ous. The card holdout Is made of a system of springs and coils fitted to a piece of leather that Is made to be attached to the upper forearm. The leather Is painted to closely resemble human flesh. An adept in Its use can touch a small spring, when some colls unloos en and the machine comes down as far as the wrist. At lis end is a small clasp wherein a number of cards can be surreptitiously placed. When the cards are placed within the clasp the spring is again touched and the appa ratus with the cards is withdrawn up the operator's sleeve, to be kept there till desired. When the cards are needed the ex pert touches the spring, the appara tus silently glides down to his wrist and the cards are 'removed and re placed with those not desired. The machine is said to be one of the most ingenious ever seen here. The faro box pawned by the man Is said to be worth $75. It is made of stiver and constructed so as to be crookedly worked. It is known an end spring box. By pressing the end two cards are drawn out at time Instead of one. The cards are marked and made to fit the box. The trial of the men has not yet been set. STRICKEN WITH INSANITY. Two Brothers Jump From Running Train. a Fast' What is thought to be a case of traveler's Insanity is responsible for the suicide of Emil Propp and the incarceration of his brother in the county Jail on a charge of Insanity, says the Seattle Star. While on the way from Everett to Seattle, Emll jumped headlong through a car window and was quick ly followed by his brother. Emil's neck was broken in the fall and his brother Oscar was badly bruised about the body. The body of the dead man was removed to the Bon- ney-Watson morgue. Oscar Propp was taken to the city jail, where he attempted again to commit suicide by hurling himself headlong on the cement floor of the receiving cell. He was removed to the county jail and locked in a padded cell. The brothers began their trip west ward from Wannakena, St. Lawrence county, N. Y. Both had plenty of money and Intended to come to this section of the country to work In the woods. Both men are about 30 years of age and of Swedish descent. The leap to death occurred at the 23-mile post which Is five miles north of Ed monds and on the line of the Great Northern railway. Passengers on the train say that the two men said little to anyone, but seemed to be earnestly talking about private matters Just before Emil took the leap through the car window. The train was stopped as soon as pos slble and both men picked up. Disfranchised Alaska. The people of Alaska are beginning to realize that the country at large is not progressing as it should. Many alleged reasons have been offered Governor Brady would probably give his "agricultural possibilities over looked." Alaska Is an "organized ter rltory"; but not a territory In the sense which the term ordinarily im plies. In every territory in the Unit ed States the Inhabitants therein have a voice in the government. The American citizen who comes to Alas ka Is disfranchised the "great America prerogative" is not his. Until Alaska receives Justice, all progress pf a permanent character must necessarily be laggard. Ram part Forum. , A young lady who had been mar ried a little over a year wrote to her father, saying: "We have the dearest little cottage In the world, ornament ed with the most charming little creepers you ever saw." The old man read the letter and exclaimed: "Twins, by thunder." Exchange. Love may be blind, but b'gosh it ain't deaf and dumb. Positively the Beat Baca?
