Maybe he did, for the smile on the dead face
was so satisfied and tender that it made Gracey
hush her useless tears and put her hand into
Martin Keenans, and with it full forgiveness.
What use was it for you to strive so hard
with me for him, my sister, the fair girl said
to the dark girl, as they stood among the black
berry bushes, watching Martin Keenan, and Ora

shining none the less for tears; but q bless

But lay il upon him to live hungry as well
as die hungry" said the fair girl.
L lay the same fret upon him. said the dark
girl, smiling still, for the satisfied soul is a rot
ten kernel in a fair husk; and therefore shall
the child suffer hunger and thirst. and shall not
be suffiCed by the fruits of Tir nOg and the

Nevertheless here and there man shall

the Crown. 1t was granted by William the
Conqueror to his brother Odo Earl of Kent but

TEMPERIEG COPPER NOT LOST ART.
From The American Manufacturer

From The American Manufacturer.
The allegation that ancient Egyptians tenn
pered copper and bronze to carry a razor edge
is not borne out by investigation Thomas
Harper Of Bellevue Penn. challenges any one
to produce a piece Of metal tempered by the
ancients that cannot be more than duplicated
by any metal worker to-day He says that in
examining hundreds Of specimens alleged to
have been tempered to the degree that steel IL
tempered, he failed to find any had he disk
covered any one who had seen such work. and
the fable which has been implicitly believed for
centuries is being shattered in the light Of mod
ern research. This is not the only story be-
Heved for centuries tending to belittle the man
of to-day, TO make him the inferior Of his fore
fathers, which failed under the searchlight Of
inquiry and science. The anCients were children
in mechanical knowledge as compared to the
people of to-day. and if there was a demand
for any particular building or piece of work
such as was produced by the ancients, it could
be duplicated and improved on by the skilled
artisans Of the nineteenth century.

STILL THE BEARS

Cotton Market is Still Inclined Down
ward.
THOUGH THE SLUMP Is SLIGHT
Americas Market is Doing Absolutely
Nothing Buyers are Without Or
ders and Cotton Manufacturers are
Simply Waiting Events.

If anyone believed yesterday morn
ing that the declining cotton market
had reached bottom their opinions
quickly changed when the cables
brought tidings of a further slump
abroad, and during the day values
melted away on this side of the pond.
That the cotton world did not want
cotton was a fact very quickly and
very thoroughly established In the
minds of all.
While the New York market opened
at loss of only one point, and went
ten points higher in a rush of specula-
tive buying, values eased off towards
the close at net loss of five points.
January closed "easy" at - and may
60 lower still.
This is net loss of 106 points for
that position in just week.
The Americas market, like others, is
as dull and featureless as could well
be imagined. Very little cotton is
now being sold, possibly fifty bales
going Yesterday.
Buyers have no orders whatever,
and there is not the slightest demand
I for cotton at what would be consider
ed fair price. No responses are re-
ceiYed to inquiries sent out by local
buyers. The whole cotton world il
just simply waiting.
Ports receipts continue heavy, ano
while the movement from plantations
continue light there seems little hope
for an early advance in the price o
cotton.

STRONG RIVAL FOR SOUTHERN,
Another Express Company to Enter
This Field.

The report comes that new express
company will soon enter the field in
the south, and it is said will be com.
petitor of the Southern. The company
will haYe capital of $1,000, 900, some
of which will be from the south,
though large majority of the money
will come from Pennsylvania. Should
this new company enter the field, and
it will in all probability do so by the
first of the new year, an express rate
war can be looked for. There will be a

companies now using the Southern. If
this be true. it can safely be stated that
