kei Of Is TO % points. Local spots drop
ped l. cent. with the demand fairly sa.-
isfactory. The demand for fob. cotton
was light In the face OF the declines. ana
the result was a restricted volume Of bust
ness for the day. Exporters were unwill-
ing to pay the prices asked In the face OF
declining market. Estimates Of re-
ccipts az the ports for tomorrow ar,
large. Houston expects upwards Of HOO
bales aud other ports look for a good
showing. To what extent the market will
drop Is matter Of conjecture. but with
the continued prevalence OF present con-
ditons II will not be surprising Il cents
IS approached before evidences Of check
appear. The theory is that the down
ward tendency will produce fear among
holders Of cotton. and consequently cause
a piiing up OF offerings that will have "a
depressing effect on prices.

E,,rrcrated Mans of Spain.

Oscar F. Williams. who was consul
general OF the United States at Ma-
Mia when the Filipino instruction
broke out, says that in the maps Of
Europe which were used in the FIJI
ipino schools under the Spanish re-
gime large place in the center Of
that continent, usually occupying
more than one-half the page, was
marked Spain. All the rest OF the
countries were scattered about the
edge. Thus the young Filipino came
to have very distorted idea Of tbs
magnitude Of the country oe his op-
pressors. Even Aguinaldo was sur
prised to learn that America covers
q greater area than Spain.-N. Z

4 Wild Bulls Swim,

The steamship Lord Iveagh, Capt.
Minister, sailed recently for Cardiff
with q full general cargo comprising
10000 bushels of grain, 2,COo boxes Of
cheese, 700 standard deals and $50
cattle. The whole of the latter were
ranch cattle and were so wild that It
needed nervy person to control
them. One bull succeeded in jumping
overheard, and for nearly one hour
the bull swan around the basin, to
the delight Of about 200 persons.
Finally the tug Collier put in an ap-
pearance and took the beast in tow to
the vessel, where cargo hawser had
been fixed to the winch. The rope
was dropped around the neck OF the
animal and it was lifted on board.
The bull was none the worse for his
immersion.-Chicago Inter Ocean.

Prof. Johnstone stoney, in develop
ing his theory Of the escape OF gases
from planetary atmospheres depend
ing upon the force of gravity OF the
particular planets concerned, has con-
cluded that heiium at present is slow
" escaping from the earth. and in a
distant past time it probably escaped
much more rapidly. From Mars, he
says, water vapor must have escaped
with about the same readiness as
helium fed from the earth. and ac-
cordingly the variable white patches
about the poles of Mars are not snow,
but probably are frozen carbon diox-
ide. Other appearances frequently
observed On Mars are due, he thinks,
to low-lying fogs Of carbon dioxide
vapor shifting alternately between
the poles and the equatorial regions.
