REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR.

From the New York Press.
 A woman never looks for master; she looks for her master.
 You can always be pretty sure of wo-l man as long as she isn't pretty sure of you.
 Men aren't saints. The only use for. saints nowadays is on stained glass win dows. When three men walk along together, two of them feel overlooked because they aren't in the middle.
 The average woman thinks that when a man doesn't like homemade pie 1t is sign that he is naturally depraved.

absence of any feature sufficient to justify it, cotton advanced quite sharply today. The Liverpool cables were tame, that mar ket being unchanged and the opening here was at Saturdays closing figures August sold at the first call at 6.41. For the first hour the greatest stagnation prevailed. Then the local bulls took advantage of an absence of selling orders and bid prices up. This frightened the bears into buying free ly. and the advancing tendency continued throughout the day. August rose to 651 and closed at 6.5O, with the tone of the mar ket steady. The next crop showed less strength, the reduction in the short Inter- est continued and if there is any further ad- vance we favor selling.

 Birmingham, Ala, May 23.-Early cables were disappointingly lower and were fol- lowed by further declines. This had con- siderable effect on the opening here, which was nearly 2 cents below aturday's prices, but the opening proved the lowest, as clique support and commission houses bought wheat, this started short covering and prices quickly advanced cents a bushel to IA. After standing above this figure there was some realing onsaccount of inc weekly visible showing arincrease of over o0O,O0 bushels.

Paine. Murphy . Co.'S Stock Letter.

Birmingham, May 23.-London lead and we followed was the history of todays opening, which averaged 1 per cent over Saturdays closing. Conservative people hardly approved of the movement in the absence of war news or engagement by fleets. Consequently the advance was meagrely supported and realizing sales caused some reaction, but the crowd who are waiting for reactions were impatient and bought good securities which again advanced prices which were held through out the session with leading grangers showing net gains of 1 per cent. over Sat urday. We reiterate former advices that prices are going higher. Reactions may come, but present prices will look cheap nj the very near future.

New York, May 23.-Evening Posts Lon don financaI cablegram:
 Further receipts of gold and the rumored settlement of the West African difficulty strengthened all the stock markets here today. The rise was also assisted by the strength of foreign bourses.
 There were no public dealings, however, and the business today was principally bears covering.
 Americans were strong, Denver and Ro Grande and St. Paul leading. It Is said that the latter may be scarce for delivery at the settlement to begin tomorrow. There was further rise of 1 point in Spanish fours.
 The chief feature today was the sharp jump in Brazls on the news of a plan to reconstruct Brazilian finances. Brazilian exchange has risen to Cd.
 Mines were good and the Contangoes at the settlement were light.

 May wheat sold at $1.70 in the New York market, hich is just midway between the top prices of the year and the liw price reached a week ago. There was also somewhat excited advance in July shortly after the opening running the price up to $1.19 or Within 12 cents of the highest point attained this year. In both cases most of the advance was lost during the afternoon but it was important as indicating that Chicago bull leaders still hold prominent relation to the nearby dealers. The late months, as usual, suffered from short sell ing on favorable crop news. Final prices of the day were 11zc@3Ac, net lower. May closed at $1.6S and July at s116A.
