cordial reception and members Of the club
were unanimous in insisting that some of
them be permitted to test his power or his
genius. To this Professor Christian con-
sented and a pleasant hour was spent in
the instructive study of palmistry.

were at the home of Mrs. Goodhue early

DRY GOODS.

New York, July 9.-Reports toward the
close of the week show that there is little
if any gain in the actual buying although
the demand for hurry orders demonstrates
the fact that stocks are exceedingly low.
The price on all cotton goods continues ex-
ceedingly low. The market to-day showed
monotonous run of small orders in all
grades of staple cottons not excepting i'm
port goods. Print cloths continue steady
at 21zc for extras, with bids for July and
August delivery refused in general and no
requests for spot at the same figure forth
coming. Printed calicoes and other woven
and printed goods are also quiet Wooden
goods show relatively greater strength
