New Orleans Cotton Market.

New Orleans, June 24.-There was no change of any importance in conditions obtaining in the spot cotton market to- day. Holders are asking prices well above the quoted level for their offerings, and generally refuse to part with their lists except where material concessions are made in their favor. They are further encouraged in- their views by the con tinued improvement in conditions in the goods trade and by the added strength of the Liverpool position. On the other hand buyers are still operating very eau tiously and except under pressure of i'm mediate necessities generally refused to meet the demands of the selling contin- gent. Sales, 1900 bales. including $50 to arrive. Quotations unchanged. /
 In the market for contracts there was the usual Monday morning whirl of &C., tivity today; but matters soon quilted down and the forenoon were away with but average trading recorded. Liverpool was decidedly strong being up 1-32d on spots and 4-64Q5-64d for deliveries. This market opened two to six points above Saturdays closing, and immediately fell off two to three points. Subsequently. however, there was rather sharp rally, under the influence of free buying opera tions and values were forced up again. The continued drought in Texas is telling upon the spirits of the bears and they are somewhat easily stampeded; with what degree of reason is questionable. After several fluctuations the market closed ten to thirteen points higher than Saturdays closing figures.

Miss Jennie Cain, Deceased.

Died, at 3 o'clock Thursday morn
ing, December 9th, Jennie May, the
youngest daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Cain, late OF Toknal, Yellowstone
county. Deceased was seventeen
years OF age, was born in Minnesota
and came to this state with her par
ents eight years ago, locating in the
Yellowstone valley. They moved in
to the Judith Basin last October,
renting the Samuel Lutz ranch. The
cause of Jennie's death was quick
consumption, the fruits OF a coldcon-
traeted in April last. She had the
best medical treatment that could be
given her here, but her case was pro-
nounced hopeless from the first.
Kind hands waited on her and loving
hearts were rear to bless her In her
last hours. 1t was sad to see the life
go out OF such n sweet face. We
would have kept her with US II we
could, but we know that u loss Is
her gain. She has gone to her long
home where there IL no more death.
Her last words were: 81 am ready
to CO." She leaves her parents, iour
brothers, two sisters and many
friends to mourn her loss. The fun.
eral took place Saturday afternoon
and was conducted by Rev. g. j, st,
Hill, Of Garneill. Y.

Pertinent Question.

EDITOR ARGUs.-A man who has
Travelled much over Montana asked
the writer why it Is that the pretty
little inland town Of Lewistown can
afford to keep a dozen saloons and
not one reading room, where young
men can go and spend the evening;
said he believed that every town of
Its size In the state had one and some,
like Anaconda, had three or four.
Suppose we commence n with the
new century. Tho writer Ia willing
to give $25 a year towards its sup
port. There are probably fifty In the
county who would give rs much and
nearly all would give more or less.
Let US try. hold meetings. etc.
A FRIEND TO EDUCATION.
The above suggestion is a very
good one, but Lewistown Is a little
too small to carry out the project at
present. Rentals, reading matter,
light and fuel would be aconsiderable
expense, which would have to be
borne largely by our citizens. 1t has
been our observation. ms n general
proposition, that those who find
pleasure in saloons and brothels
would find but little to attract them
In n public library or reading-room.
OF course there are those who would
find 1t profitable and pleasant to
spend a couple Of hours that way,
and 1t might attract some young
men whose habits of life are Just
forming. A few years ago a number
OF our citizens took steps to establish
n public library and funds and books
were contributed as n nucleus, but
little has been heard OF itfor the past
two years. In this connection ii
might be well to say that the town
officials will find 1t difficult to combat
the saloons and dives iimen ofmeans
on the outside stand ready to 90 on
the bonds of the proprietors OF the
worst in our midst. Education IL n
means and will go far to eliminate
these places, but the stern hand OF
the law Is the most potential In n
new town on the frontier Of civiliza-
tion.-ED.
