The Conjurer Aston,shed.

Tn0 ION 0e0f AotOmtSneOs
Mr.. Charles Bertram, the well.known
digitateur, tells some very inter.
esting stories In his recent Reminis.
cences. Among them he relates how
one Of his most ingenious tricks had an
unexpected ending, more amusing to
the spectators than to the performer.
He had borrowed ring from a lady
In the audience, and jokingly requested
her to place q value upon 1t. This she
did, assessing It at $50. He then tied q
piece Of ribbon to 1t, placed the ring on
a plate In full view Of the audience, and
proceeded to make an 0melette.
Having mixed the ingredients, he
threw the ring and the ribbon into
them, and pouring a little spirits upon
them, went through the make. believe
Of cooking the Omelette In a pan.
On setting fire to the spirit there IL a
blaxe, and lid IL placed upon the pan.
When the lid is removed, instead Of an
omelette, a dove Is found with the
Identical ring attached to Its neck by
ribbon.
IAN went well until I removed the
cover Of the pan," continues Mr.. Der.
tram. "There was the dove sure
enough, with the ring tied to its neck;
but during the applause Of the audi.
ence, the dove few up, winged its way
round the hail, and dashed out Of an
open window into Piccadilly. I never
saw It or the ring again."
The conjurer mournfully adds that he
had to make the best Of a bad bargain
and pay the lady $50 as compensation
for her loss.

SWING LOWER ON COTTON
And the Market Tumbles Several Points,
Wheat and Cereals Generally Un-
changed--The Movement

New, York, Oct. 8.-The cotton mar
ket opened easy at decline of Toll
points, chiefly on the more remote deliv-
cries. Following the first call there was
some reaction on covering by local trad
err who were able to see little proht
and were anxious to even up their ac-
count and await the government crop
report due Monday. Throughout the
session the market had weak under
tone, public cables being decidedly disap-
pointing, while private cables that Neill
was ready with a heavy crop estimate.
At the same time the government or
cotton in the South showed an increasing
tendency which also checked confdene
on the long side of the account. The
market closed steady at q net decline Of
9012 points.
DRY GOODS.
New York, Oct. S.-The dry goods
market to-day shows gathering strength
in all cotton lines, due to the strength
ened market on cottons and the alleged
injury to the cotton crop. This is par
ticularly noticeable in print cloths AMI
other staple cottons in similar grades.
The quota of buyers in the market is
larger than it was earlier in the week
ana llere seems TO De IL teuueuCy 10
expand purchases on the part of those
visiting the local market. Reports Of
distribution at second hands in various
parts of the country still continue favor
able and retailers are said to be enjoying
period of activity in all seasonabie
lines of goods.
Print cloths seem to have reached a
basis on which trading meets the require
ments of both sellers and buyers. The
sales of the week on basis of 215 cents
for extras have been heavy and bid fair
to continue up to the close. Odd goods
have also been sold in large numbers.
Prints maintain the relative strength
which has characterized them for sew
eral weeks. The demand from the
South is somewhat heavier than it was
during the height of the fever scare,
both for fancies and staples. The latter
are stronger than fancies. Wooden and
worsted goods show no change from
their previously strong condition.

Chicago, ILL.,, Oct S.-Most of to-day's
trading in wheat was confined to liQui-

will be no session tomorrow. Bulls were
afraid 1t might rain before Monday and
bears were afraid it would not, and the
result was that both sides evened up

Tack these sheets on the wall In the
shape of a panel, and arrange carefully
omit one or two choice eunmountedp pho
tographs. Brown prints Of madonnas
are lovely on these panels, and cherub
faces are always effective. When the
photographs have been carefully put ia
place with the tiniestlittle taclSs, fasten
up pyonr leaves with the points all sweep
ing one way, as if they were drifting
across the panel in the wind. In brown,
yellow and crimson tints the effect Of
this shower of leaves IS so restful and
beautiful IL is as ifa little bit of autumn
frolic and sunshine were painted on the
wall.
A pretty letter case can be made Of
pasteboard and canvas covered with oak
leaves in old rose tints; and some dark
November morning, when the snow Is
flying, pin your red and yellow leaves
TO the white sash curtains, and see how
it will brighten the room.-Frances
