THE COTTON MARKET.

Fairchild & Hobson's cotton letter by
private wire to the Alamo Brokerage
Co., 2O3 Alamo plaza, San Antonio,
Texas.
New Orleans, La, Sept. 1.-THE
Liverpool market continued her weak
attitude and showed loss of seven
points on the day. Spot sales were
small, 5000 bales at 5-32nds decline.
Here the market sympathized accord
ingly, and prices broke Is points. The
selling continued and further decline
of seven points more took place. There
after the market became firm on shorts
covering to even up on the weak, and
most of the loss was recovered.
Political news then played a part
in the days events, with the result of
breaking the market ten points, clos
ing steady, however, at eleven points
loss on the day. Gables also reported
that Mr.. Pasch, was out in Havre, with
an estimate of nine million bales.
The spot market continues in weak
condition, there are few buyers, and
holders are anxious sellers, thus giving
the market a weak undertone.,. Hous-
ton expects Monday 1000 to 1900
against s, 400 last year.

The bible is authority for the fact
that God proclaimed to Moses that
this should be the Sabbath of Sab
baths, and should be observed in
cleansing the soul of sin and doing
penance by fasting and denying one
self for the sake of repentance and
forgiveness.
If our readers will refer to the old
Testament, Leviticus XVI 1-34-XXIII
27-32 MIX I'll, they will find the
observances and sanitary laws as
written by Moses more intelligently
explained. There is marked differ
ence in the services of the Reform
and Orthodox congregations; the for
mer have revised the ritual and con-
duct the services with less dramati-
cal effect than the latter. The Eng
lish language is principally used by
the Reform. while the Orthodox use
the Hebrew or dead language"
throughout their services.
The Jews from the time of Moses
are the only religious sect that have
observed strictly the sanitary laws as
laid down by that great man." and
they are the only race. notwithstand-
ing thousands Of years of persecu-
ton, that are still intact and compar-
atively free from mixture with other
races, as they do not believe in inter-
marriage.
As usual in the strict observance
of the day, all business and work will
be abstained from and stores and
dwellings will be closed in this city,
as in every city where Israel has an
abiding place.
For whatsoever soul it be that
doeth any work in that same day, he
shall be cut off from among his peo-
pie"

and Disbursements for fiscal year,
commencing June l, 1895, and end
ing May 31st, 1896. The pamphlet
contains 81 pages of statement; and
would require more time to review
than we have to spare at present, but
the document, from a casuary glance
at its contents, contains some very
instructive lessons for our taxpayers
to think over Very few taxpayers
will take the trouble to review this
neatly gotten up pamphlet and al
most every one expects the newspa-
pers to sift out the facts from the fig
ures and put them down in intelligi-
BILE language. This statement will
be a sort of handbook for use in the
coming city election.

GRAND OPERA HOUSE.
Wednesday September 18th.


b Fun and that too, of the most inno-
cent and mirth provoking kind will
reign supreme at the above house when
"Betsey Jane" Mr.. ]. c. Stewards la
test work will be given. The piece has
for it's plot the chief feminine fads and
cults of the day and satirizes them in
a delightfully."- enjoyable manner. OF
course hypnotism, spiritualism, occu-
lism, and bicycleism are some of it's
chief features, particularly the latter,
a race of which will be introduced in
which a strong minded maiden of a
quarter ton weight, dressed in the most
approved knickerbockers will demon
strate to the audience that the bicycle
spine is not necessary to win a race.
In addition "Betsey Jane" is said to
sparkle with a refined humor that lasts
from the first rise of the curtain and
continues with a delightful breeziness
until it's final fall. 1t has no doubt
been already surmised that Mr.. Stew
art himself will enact the title role
and that, judging from his past pro-
auctions "Betsey Jane" will come to us
clothed in the most sumptuous stage
environments. The company surround
ing Mr.. Stewart are we'll known spec
ialty artists who will contribute not a
little to the merry mysticisms that will
regale all who witness the presenta-
ton
