COTTON.
New York. May 2O.-Baering and fill
ing by July longs and shorts constitut-
ed the sole feature of operations in the
local cotton market today Only at the
start did values respond to legitimate
influences, the balance of the session
being subject to fitful room trading of
a scalping nature. Influences Wafe
chiefly of a bearish character with some
factors very decidedly against higher
market On the call prices were CT
two to three points under light room
and some English selling, with the UNI
dertone about steady. Receipts were
large. cables showed heasiness under
further rains and public support was
lacking. Reports from Southern spot
markets showed that prices were lag
ging considerably. In fact there SEEM
ed little upon which to base bull oper-
atoms. Yet shorts were kept in con-
slant fear by rumors that July was to
be advanced Soon after the call buy
ing by shorts became & factor and
prices advanced until July at midday
was quoted at 760. Estimates for an
exceptionally large movement at New
Orleans tomorrow with forecast for
rains generally caused furry of profit
taking and a momentary wave in the
buying. In the afternoon shorts We're
again in retreat and advanced July to
1863. For the rest of the session the
market was feverish and very irregu-
lar Prices advanced and declined by
turns. New Orleans sold lere on bulgcs
and Europe sold the new crop options
sparingly, but bought July. Clo7ed
steady prices seven points higher TO
one point lower.

Sings like q NiehteneaIe.

Sarah Macdonald Sheridan, of Atlanta,
the eminent contralto, will be In Union
Monday night, February 11th, and will
sing at the Opera House under the
auspices Of the Union Library Associa-
tion. The press everywhere that Mrs
Sheridan has sang, are unanimos in tho
most glowing tributes Of praise of her
wonderful voice The price for reserved
seats will be so cents. The proceeds go
to help the Library fund. From q
number of very complimentary press
comments we clip the following from the
Rome, Ga, Tribune:
''No Southern woman ever achieved
greater musical triumph in Southern
city than did Mrs. Sarah Macdonald
Sheridan last Thursday night in Atlanta.
The fair vocalist never sang more bril-
liantly, and her rich contralto voice
filled the Grand Opera House with
melody that delighted every lover of
music. The applause was great; but
floral tributes were more gorgeous. Mrs.
Sheridan was gowned In a beautiful pink
silk with brocaaed roses.

SPARTANBURG'S
HISADLESS GHOST.
The Ghost is Seen by PASSENGERS
on the Electric Car Line.

The following is from the Clifton
correspondent of the Free Lance.
This is one feature of Spartanburg s
electric street car line, that we do
not wish to encounter when our street
car line begins operation:
CLIFTON, s. G., Jan. 29.-"All
sorts and conditions Of f-spooks are
said to be roaming, at night, in and
around a certain lonely spot on the
road between Glendale and Spartan
burg. The bright, particular star of
this delegation from spiritland, how
ever, seems to appear in the form of
an immense woman. 1t cannot be
said of this startling apparition Thou
hast no speculation in those eyes
which thou dost glare with for it
has no eyes, nor has it head. 1t is
of tall and commanding presence,
however, and its appearance is calcu
lated to inspire with awe and strike
terror to the stoutest heart. Since
its advent, thoughts of the famous
whangdoodle, which erstwhile was
wont to be seen in lonely places at
dead hours of the night, have paled
into insignifcance, and revered mem
ories of the Mysteries of Udolpho'
and other gruesome ghost tales, to
say nothing of the raw head and
bloody bone stories of our early
childhood, have become as naught,
and have vanished from our minds
even as "a school boys dream, the
wonder of an hour. 1t is impossi-
bic to give an exact description Of
this headless female. Only for an
instant can she be seen, and it is not
within the power of any artist to por-
tray her awful presence in all its
hideous entirety. Suffice it to say
that she is strictly up-to, date ghost,
however, and if her appearance
doesn't jar you, you are the nervicst
little man that walks the streets of
this burg and don't you forget it"
