The Y. M. C. AS Offer.

A very large number of young men have
taken advantage of the numerous opportuni-
ties for self-improvement and physical culture
at the Young Mems Christian Association since
the opening OF their new building, and in
order to make it still easier for young men to
join, the board of directors at their meeting
held March 10 unanimously decided to divide
the membership fee, allowing young men who
join between now and the LIST OF May to pay
20 down and the other So in four months, thus
placing the benefits of the institution within
the reach of every young man who desires to
take advantage of the same. There are many
young men working on small salary who find
1t somewhat difficult to pay the $40, which is
the annual membership fee, at one time. The
Association of this city is of the largest and
most successful in the country.

Suns Cotton Review.

New York. Nov. 21-The Suns cotton re- view says: Cotton fell points on Decem- Der, but later the whole list advanced to 10 points beyond the closing prices of yes terday: then they reacted to points, after which there was rally which carried the market 10 to Il points above the final figures of 147, 900 bales.
 Port receipts were 26.O1i bales, against sos bales last year and 39,47s bales for the same day in 1S93 thus far this week 173, S9S bales. against 16s.022 bales thus far last week.
 Todays features: The main feature was the continued smallness of the crop move ment That undeniable fact really domi- mated the market from the opening to the close. The Liverpool news was not all to- gether satisfactory since that market open yesterday, and although the spot business was still liberal the spot prices were weak Then the, Bombay movement was very heavy and there was more or less local and southern liquidation. Nevertheless the price moved upward with little interruption and ended at about the highest point of the day. Liverpool was still active, the trade reports from Manchester and the conti- nent were said to he more favorable, the po- was reported more satisfactory; continental spinners are expected to buy freely during the remainder of the % month; dry 1t go91ds were ere colder weather some large houses were eov-. ering short here, other prominent interest sent orders to buy But above and beyond all was the lghtness of the crop movement rior towns, and the total for the week is expected to be much lighter than was ex- pectcd a few days ago. It may be that some of the German element assisting the rise for the moment in order to get a hard spot to sell on, but, however, this may be it is certain that there are many believers in better prices for cotton. It is certain that larger quantities are beoing purchased by spinners and that the f1uctua- tions of the market so to speak are thus being correspondingly strengthened. It is not so. much purchases of paper cotton as purchases of actual cotton here and abroad that give the markets its present solidity and strength.
