beauty is TO be carried as well as that

In this connection there is a story
of a claim which is now before the
Court of Fire Claims, in which the
Boys Brigade people are interested. 1t
appears that before the quarantine of
the district about Beretania and Smith
streets, a building had been erected
upon a corner of the Kaumakapili
Church lot, in size 40 K 60 feet at a
cost of about 1900, which was in con-
stant use prior to the breaking out of
the plague. When the building was
needed the Board Of Health, through
Armstrong Smith. asked Mr. Richards
for the use of the structure, agreeing
to replace the building with another
one at the same or a different place
The building was used by the Board
of Health until the fire, and then the
Boys Brigade folk were told 10 file
their claim with the court.
The case has been presented and the
point pressed upon the court that the
building was under the care, and ir
fact was the property of the Board o.
Health, under the promise that II al
to be paid for by that body. Should
this money be secured for the play
ground, it could be pushed at once,

New York, May 1S.-The dry goods
market has moved very quiet for all de-
scriptions Of cotton goods, and without
change in prices. Print cloths inactive
Fall River will probably curtail further
four weeks. Prints slow of sale, Ameri-
can cotton yarns slow, no improvement
and very irregular. Wooden and worsted
yarns slightly steadier.
COTTON.
New York, May 1S.-The cotton market
opened quiet with prices unchanged to
two points lowed, and after the call was
dull with fluctuations too narrow to per-
init of even scalping turns being made.
There was nothing in the cables to effect
preconceived ideas, a slight decline in
spot cotton offsetting slight advance
in futures. Rains were reported in the
Atlantic States and in Eastern and North
ern Texas with showers in part of the
central belt. This condition had been dis
counted and therefore attracted no more
than passing attention. Receipts were
light but yesterdays estimates had fore
shadowed this feature. In fact there was
nothing in the way of news upon which
to base future conclusions and as a gen
eral thing the pit contingent settled down
to a policy of evening up old accounts
pending new week developments. The
commission house element had no orders
the West contributed no business and
the South was Indifferent. Shorts bid
July up to $50 after the call from 7.5S.
but later there was reaction under sheer
absence of speculative support.
The market for futures closed quiet
and steady with prices net unchanged to
four POINTS lower.
