New Orleans, Aug. 39.-To-day's

Liverpool was q half lower ut our

changed and sales of 1000 bales, it
was reported that the cause of the
weakness in Liverpool was due to
selling on southern account against
spots. The course of the local mar
ket embraced fluctuation of but 3
points, the closing being practically
unchanged from Saturday. The

In the following few lines the
Tahlequah Arrow tells a whole
volume of truths: "A Topeka
banker complains that he has
more than 100000 in custom
ers' deposits in his vaults, while
Topeka papers pretend to be-
lieve that a plethora of money
in bank is Indicative of pros
porous times. But it isn't.
While there may be a surplus
of money in the hands of capi-
talists the wage-worker ekes
out a miserable existence, hug
ging to his breast the delusion
that he will get better pay "af-
ter the election. Kansas pa
pers should tell the whole
story. They should tell of the
unemployed in Kansas. and
also explain why it Is that good
mechanics, who have families
to support, are to be found in
her cities working ten hours q
day for the small pittance OF
five and six dollars week. In
stead of bank vaults. look into
the homes and lives of wage
earners if you would know the
true condition of a country"

DIRTY alleys and back-houses
will make people sick and give
a town the name abroad of be-
being unhealthy. Ardmore has
that name now, and it is un-
just; but the name will cling to
it as long as our town is as
filthy as it is and our people
continue to have fevers. Ard
more is naturally very healthy
town. but her nasty alleys and
filthy out-houses and horse-lots
cause our people to have fevers
in the summer and fall of the
year. 1t is a wonder that we
don't have more sickness than
we do. 1t is due to the natural
kealthfulness of the place. Let
the city fathers see to it that
the horse-lots and all sorts OF
out-houses are cleaned up and
the people will bless them. and
it won't be long before we will
have one of the most healthfuI
and pleasant little cities to live
in in all the territories.

Chicago, Aug. 29.-Wheat: We
think too much Importance 10 given
by the trade to the crop of wheat we
have grown without taking into SC
count other conditions which are
fully as important factors In price
making. May wheat is selling on the
basis of 56 to 81 cents for cash wheat
and it would seem that these low
prices cannot be maintained without
there 10 enough wheat In sight to pay
carrying charges. We think the
chances for holders to make at least
= moderate profit exceptionally good
and advise buying December when
on soft spots. The principal feature
mt the moment is stock of trade which
is against the price. 1t is said ex-
ports Of wheat have been prohibited
in Turkey until further notice on &C.
count of local needs. Minneapolis
reports good demand for cash wheat
ut 1-2 cent better prices than Satur-
day.
Corn-This cereal was nrmer In
sympathy with wheat. Weather
continues good. Trade light, mostly
professional; 1000 cars expected for
tomorrow.
Oats steady, hardly enough trade
to make prices.
ProYisions-They were unexpected
ly Arm considering the large run oi
hogs. The liquidation appears to be
all over in the pit and packers, We
think, are the chief owners.

the law department at the Uni
yersity of Texas have been
made more rigid. and for this
reason it is believed that the
number of students will be
smaller than it would otherwise
have been, although applica-'
tions for law catalogues have
been unusually numerous. 1t
is certainly time that some re-
strictions were being placed on
the copious production of mem
bers of this particular profes-
sion. While it is an honorable
calling and an essential attri-
butte to our system of govern
ment, it has for some years
been grossly trespassed upon
by the lax methods that have
permitted so many incOmpe-
tents and shysters to invade
the ranks of the profession.
The bar association of Texas
has taken notice of this condi-
ton, and the state university
has recognized the justice of
it's complaint.
There must be something Sc
riously wrong with a system
that permits 18- and 20-year-old
boys, after a three OF six
months course of study. to
jump right into the middle of
the ranks of what for many
years was considered one of
our most learned professions.
Just a few years ago physicians
we're beng rounded up, equip
ped and qualifed(9) with aston
ishing rapidity; but the quan-
tity has been by some means
restricted. and the result is
that, while the factories are
still working on full time, the
output has been limited and
the public is getting a better
quality of goods in that line

Three Teams Finish on
Even Terms for the
Championship.
WOODS HALL GAMES

High Scores - Sunday Club
Runs - Tomorrow's
Club Runs.

Last night on the Catholic Club alleys
brought the tournament series TO an end,
but did not decide the championship. The
games established a tie between three
teams, who must engage in an extra
competition for the first two prizes. There
was more interest in the games last
night than in any since the series first
opened and upon the result much de-
pended. Not alone the team champion
ship but the Individual prize winners
were in doubt. The successful teams last
night were B and L, which placed them
on the same level with team G, which
was unable to continue the lead of one
game, and through the defeat in the
match with L was forced to a lower per-
centage. and a special match viii be
rolled next Monday totdetsrrnine the win
ner. Great excitement prevailed during
the contest between teams G and l., for
upon the result depended the first team
prize. Both cams have done good work
it continued last evening. The pace
was a fast one. with Walsh and Mrs.
O,Brien doing the leading. Both ex-
celled their sex on the other team and
the honor favored them by a margin
of 81 pins Mrs OsBrlen rolieu 4Ss, which
entities her to the championship and high
individual prize. Mrs. Somers won the
special spare prize with 81. The surprise
of the night was the remarkably strong
game rolled by Miss Bulger, who smash
ed all former records with 165, and won
the special prize for high score. The
series was superior TO any other and the
records were what might have been ex-
pected on the windup of SO successful a
competition. The scores follow

Four matches were bowled last night in
the team tournament in West Hoboken,
The rolling was up to the average. In
the first inning the defeat of Martens and
Alces by Gras sdorf and Magill created
surprise. They put up a clever exhibition
in the second match. but luck was against
them, Fisch and Clark winning. The
latter were UP against it,, however, in
their meeting with Grassdorf and Magill,
who were stro niger than ever in the third
contest. Martens and Alces perseyered,
however. and in their third effort were
successful. This time they rolled larger
results than Gross and Kaufer and won.
