The course of events in tho sheep trade for several months has of course tended to create somo de gree of cheerfulness among pro ducers of wool; but at tho same time the rank and filo of those en gaged in the business, having had such protracted and intense dis couragement for a term of years, were in no hasto to return to a con dition' of absolute conlldonce re specting tho future of tho flock. Thoso who Iinvo mingled Willi floekmasters in tho last few weeks, ljowover, cannot but have noticed n decided change in this particular. For ovsr four months now tho course of trudo has been steadily, though slowly, toward hotter things and all tho better because tho movement has been gradual Thinking men have quietly come to see that all this has n founda tion in common sense, and that the developments which they have seen aro but tho natural outcome of well-defined causes. ITcnco a re turning faith in the sheep industry is making itself felt till over tho country. No point in connection with agriculturo in tho present year is more positive than this. Nation al Stockman. Expressing his Feeling:. A mon whose matrimonial life had been anything but happy in consequonco of tho quarrelsome habits of his wife, who thus con trived to keep him constantly In hot water with tho neighbors, was at last relieved of her company by death. As tho widowor's means wero limited, tho funeral was plain, but respectable enough to satisfy any reasonablo relative. Tho broth er of tho deceased lady, howovor, was not a reasonablo man; and on tho return of tho mourners to tho house ho ridiculed tho funeral, said that it was mean, ami so qulot that nil tho neighbors must havo consid ered It niggardly. "Yes it was rath or quiot," responded tho widower; "but what did you expect? Did you want mo to sjiow my submiss ion to tho decree of Providence in removing my lato lamented spouse by closing tho funeral with a dis play of fireworks ? 1 did think of a cheorful display of somo sort, but abandoned tho idea bocausa I (ear ed tho-nolghbors might talk about t, and say that I was giving too jiiuuh oxpreusJon to my feelings, RT.

Tho nice old man with a rosy faco has been a mystery to the people about the hotel. One man said he was Uncle Rtifus Hatch, whileanother averred that ho was ono of the multi-millionaires from the slope. "I'm neither ono nor the other, sir," tho nice old man exclaimed when informed of tho speculation as to his identity: "1 make jugs in Atlanta, Ga., sir a jug manufacturer in Atlanta, by sir." "Prohibition town, is it not'."' was asked. "To be sure," the nice old man replied, "and it is to prohibition that 1 owo my wealth, sir. I mako jugs, sir brown jugs." Fighting For A Widow. There is a hoarding-house in the northeastern hoction of the 18th ward Philn., that is just at pros cut the seat of a very bitter romantic feud. The object of the lrlfe is a bewitching widow of about twenty summorH who has among tho male hoarders two rivals for tho posses sion of her heart and hand. The .young lady true to her widowhood, smiles serenely on both admirers, and each vies with tho other in tleeds of galantry. Tho fair in amorata has no spare time to her self. By a sort of implied under standing between, hor two lovers, which tho young' lady never fails to encourage by (he most bewitch ing devices, they attend upon hor on alternate nights, escorting her to places of amusement and other gatherings of a social character. So great is tho rivalry between tho lovers that they havo on soveeal occasions resoted to piigllistiu en counters to decldo which shall take tho prize. Neither will admit, however, that ho is second best. Ono oveniug recently thoy fought with penknives, and both emorged from tho conflict badly cut up. Tho battle has been going on for six months, but tho trio all ronialu uudor tho sumo roof, The other boarders aro watching tho all'alr with great interest, expecting that tho sequel will ba something rtor-rlblo, The Juck-RnbhJl. . Wo believe it wns Texon Siftlngs wich evolved the following bit of natural history literature: "The Jack-rabbit is an Inhabi tant of Texas and sqnio other west ern slates. Ho Is often called the mule-eared rabbit, and by the cow boy is frequently spoken of as the muley. He is not a rabbit at nil. A rabbit is an unobtrusive little animal, who is found by school boys in a holo In tho ground at tho end of a long track in the snow. The so-called Jack-rabbit is quito a different kind of soup meat. Ho is identical with the British hare, ex cept that ho is larger, his color lighter, and his ears much longer. II is avoirdupois is about twelve pounds and his enrs measuro from tig to tip, about sixteen inches. Ho lies under cover of a bunch of grass but is very seldom found at home, his olllce hours being between sun set and sunrise. He is to bo found during tho day on the open prairie where no feeds on tbo tender shoots of the mc-quite or sage grans. Ho is not a ferocious animal, as a stranger might lie led to suppose from an examination of what pur ports to be his picture under the alias of 'The Texan Hare,' in Gov. Roberts' book. The jack-rabbit has several enemies, among them the cowboy, who shoots him with his rifle, the coyote and the dog, that try to run him down, and tho Governor of Texas above alluded to, who libels him in his book. He has two ways of protecting himself against his enemies. One is to squat when he suspects danger, and fold bis ears along his sides. By doing this he often escapes observation, as only his back is exposed, the color of which harmonizes with the brown or tho withered grass. The other plan, which he uses when discovered and pursued, is to create remoteness- between him self and pursuer. In giving his whole attention to this matter, when necessary, ho is a stupendous success and earnest to a fault. When disturbed ho unlinibers his long legs, unfurls his ears, and goes oil' with a bound, lie gener ally stops after running about a hundred yards and looks back to see if his pursuer is enjoying the chase as much as he thought ho would, and then he leaves for parts unknown. There are many fast things from an ioo boat to a noto maturing in the bank, but nothing to equal the jack-rabbit. An un founded rumor gets around pretty lively, but could not keep up with him for two blocks. When an ordinary cur dog tries to expedite a Jack-rabbit routo he makes a humiliating fa Hiiro of it. He only gives the rabbit gentle ex ercise. Tho fatter merely throws up his ear j, and, under an easy sail skims leisurely along tacking occasionally to give tho funeral procession time to catch up. But if you want to see velocity, urgent speetl and precipitated hasto you have only to turn ilooso a grey hound in the wake of a jack-rabbit. Pursued by a grey-bound he will 'let himself out' in a way that would astonish a prepaid half-rate message. If ho is a rabbit that has never had any experience with a greyhound before, ho will start off at an easy pace, but us ho turns to wink derisively at what lie sup poses to be an ordinary yellow dog ho realizes that there is a forco in nature hitherto unknown to him, ami his look of astonishment, alarm and disgu.it, as bo furls his ears ami promptly declines tho nomination, is amusing. Under such circumstances ho goes too fast for tho eye to follow his move ments, anil presents tho optical il lusion of a streak of juck-rabbit a mile and a half long. "Papa," hbosaid softly and blush ingly, "young Mr. Simpson is in the parlor and wishes to speak with you." Then she wank into an easy chair, and her heart beat so fierce ly that it made the gas-fixtures rat tle. Pro.ioutly tho old man return ed. "Oh, papa," she said, "did he- was he what did he want'.'" "lie wanted to borrow two cents to get over to Brooklyn with," said the disappointed old gentleman.

The faithful coal operators who rushed to tho defense of the nntliraclto coal pool the" other day, and declnrcdthat it was beneficial to tho labor of that region, may think that their authority should bo taken e.v cathedra But before their testimony to the beneficial effects of sotting ono monopoly against tho competiton of a hun dred thousand laborers and of re stricting tho output of any staple can be accepted us final thoy must explain a few statistical facts. One of those facts is furnished by the census report on wtiges and the necessaries of lifo. .A decline of ;(! per cent in the rate of wages for the first ten years of the anthracite coal combination, as compared with a decline of 10 per cent in the retail price of coal, is a rather ob stinate fact. Then whon'wo learn from the State Bureau of Statistics that the total of all wages "paid in mining and'loading a ton of anth racite coal including out side as well as inside work, is .f 1.00 1.10 per ton, when the retail price of coal in Philadelphia, 100 miles away, isf(ifi)G.f)0,;tho share of one sixth of the prico allotted to labor by this beneficent combination, and five sixths reserved for itself and its proteges, does not seem to bo overwhelmingly liberal .to tho laborers. But this is by no means all. The reports of the Reading Coal and Iron Company show the number of days on which'.' the "anthracite mines of the coal regions havo been permitted to work, by the anthracite coal pool, for eight years past. Would it bo believed that of tho 1M01 working days of that period, tho actual operation of this plan for improving tho wages of labor has allowed tho miners to work"102o days and forced them to stand idle more than one third the time or an averago of 110 .working days in each year? When people asijcrt.'thut a com bination producing such results is for the honour of labor, or tho good of tho community, thoy either dis play their own ignorance or they presume upon tho ignorance of tho public. Tho Electric Light's Eilect on the Eye. Dr. J, A. Andrews, or Now York, road a paper on tho effect of tho electric light upon tho eye.

H.f.Tneltttin gives the maximum of light w 1th the minimum of heat. So far the only cases of injury to the eye from the electric light have resulted from ex posure in proximity to the arc, light. In most of these cases tho existence of previous eye trouble was not ex cluded. The effect in these cases can be best explained as occurring through the sympathetic nervous system rather than as a result of mechanical or chemical influences. It is not established that exposure to bright light can produce a dif fused iritis. No case of injury to the eye from the incandescent light has been reported, nncPout of 1100 workers with tho electric incande scent light examined by tho writer there was not one complaint. Thoso suffering with errors'of refraction claimed that the sight was im proved. Tho light used was from twelve to sixteen candle-power, and provided a shade to protect tho eyes. The incandescent light possesses advantages which are wanting in other tonus of artificial light, tho principal of which aro.its steadiness and the fact its uso does not contaminate the atmosphere.
