READY FOR CHRISTMAS.
Different Sunday Schools Will Have
Customary Exercises.

The various Sunday schools Of the
city are arranging to celebrate Christ
mas, and the programmes promise to
be of exceptional merit. The different
churches will be decorated with holly
and evergreen, and the entertain
ments will be quite elaborate, while
thew promise to be fully as entertain
ing as those of former years, there
will be a noticeable falling off OF
secular re~citations and songs, and in
their place will be heard the real
story of the Christ child, and what
| Christmas day really means to all
lovers of Christianity.
The Baptist church will have its
exercises in the court house Tuesday
evening and they will be interesting
ones. w. o. Parker, superintendent
of the Sunday school, assisted by
Mrs. VIM. Remington and Mrs, Parker,
have drilled the children for the
event. There will be recitations and
songs and a heavily laden tree upon
which will be found, not only a treat
of the usual candy and nuts, but each
child will receive a. gift as well.
The exercises at the Episcopal
church will also take place Christ
mas eve. The church will be prettily
decorated with holly and greens, the
central attraction, however, will be
the shimmering Christmas tree, which
will contain an individual gift for all
as we'll as a box of home made candy.
The programme will consist of recita-
lions and a Christmas carol service,
all to be given by the school. This
will be supplemented by a Christmas
story by the Rev. Gesner.
The Methodist Sunday school will
really begin it's Christmas festivities
this evening, at which time a Christ.
mas carol service will be given. The
choir will assist with several musical
numbers. Christmas eve a programme
: of songs and recitations will be rem
dered by the school. Mrs. Gainforth
Miss earns and Miss Stoddard have
had charge of the work Of prepare
ton and the programme will be one
= we'll worth listening to. There will
be no tree, but instead Santa Clau!
= will arrive with his pack, which will
:, be large enough to contain a trea
- for all.
, The exercises in the Catholi,
church will not take place unit
!, Thursday evening at 1880. There will
. be a tree containing candy and gift
- for each member of the school, and
we'll arranged programme will b
given. The recitations will be il
: charge of Miss Frances Murphy an

: Mrs. Payne. Miss Louise Reilly wi

= lively. The choir will be compose
~ of Mrs. Payne, Mrs. McVey, Mis
Murphy, Miss Clare Murphy, Mis-
Lavigne, Miss La Rivere and Rome

tations and emblematic drills. The

Murphy 6. Coz Cotton Letter.

New York, May 22-In the cotton mar ket there was not much snap and the excitement as to the July corner had temporarily subsided, but the point was taken that there would be revival of interest before a great while. The re- cent rains have undoubtedly helped the crop much, but it is two or three weeks late everywhere and it is a question as to the extent of the benefit.
 The general feeling is that Texas IS doing better that rain in that state has not been more than enough for week or two to come while not few contend that there has been no news of impor- tance over the greater portion, of the State.
 The low price is holding sellers in check and conditions being thus far fa- vorable, to the long side as regards the new crop, it is only natural to expect the disposition of anything should be to- wards the bull side rather than the bear side.
 Rain was reported today at Charles ton Savannah, Columbia, Blackville, Burlington, Memphis and Atlanta. Con fiicting crop accounts are coming in from various quarters, and Southern ports are in many instances depicting very satis- factory prospect while it is known that the actual status Is quite the contrary.

Financial

New York, May 22.-Commercial-Adver tiser's London financial cablegram says
 The markets here were almost inani- mate today. So far as they moved they sagged from lack of support.
 Americans opened nominally at pari- ties. but soon yielded liA point. Business in them was almost entirely suspended, and it is thought this condition of af- fairs will continue until the settlement of the Northern Pacific deadlock. It is said here that the Morgans are lending stock at s5 to dealers who sold against op- tions maturing in June. The firm is de- clared confidently to have enough of the common stock on hand to secure the con- trol of the company.

We favor however the long side, as short sales seem too risky with the long inter- est apparently holding the upper hand; at least from a speculative standpoint of view.

 New York. May 22.-The trading in July was of very small amount, and as most of the timid shorts had covered yester- day, there was an easier feeling today, though not a weak market. The leading holders took but little part in forcing previous days advance, and did not even attempt to check the setback today Scat tered longs were taking profits, but the trade is nervous and appear afraid of fancy operations in the July at any time, or before that month comes round. and 1t is almost certain the bear element will take no aggressive stand.
