New Orleans Cotton Market.

New Orleans, February 20.-There was A. better feeling extant in the market for spot cotton today and factors are asking definitely higher prices for their holdings. Stocks offering now are large and fairly well asserted, so that buyers have no difficulty in making selections.
 The market for contracts for the future relivery of cotton was moderately active during the morning hours, with prices auctuating over a range sufficiently wide to lend zest to even the most modest ven- ture and afford every opportunity to the scalping contingent to get in its work-an opportunity that was not neglected. The opening values were irregularly l to .5 points above Mondays closing, the trend thereafter being upward, until gains of to g points had been scored, and then downward for a loss of to points, leav- ing the futures l to 3 points above Mon days closing.

KANSAS PIONEER.
Bishop Walden, One of the
Early Settlers.
Was in Topeka in Days of Le-
compton Constitution.

The old timers who are in attendance
at the Methodist conference in this city
this week will remember Bishop John NJ.
Walden. who spoke Tuesday night on
The Destiny of China" as one Of the
pioneers of the state.
Ohio is the native state of the bishop,
who is now growing old, being three
score and ten years. He came to Kan
sas in the spring of 1857 and remained
here during the year and one-half fol-
lowing.
Those were exciting times. Soon after
coming to Kansas he began publishing
the Quindaro Chindowan. He was,
through the paper and otherwise. a
staunch friend Of the free state consittu-
ton During the winter Of 1857 when
the Topeka. legislature was in session in
this city he was in attendance The To-
peka legislature is we'll known to the
old timers as the body that met here
before territorial organization to make
Of Kansas a free state.
1t was also partly through the efforts
of Bishop Walden that the Lecompton
constitution was turned down and the
free state constitution Of Kansas
chosen
Col John Richtie the man who gave
800 acres of land to Washburn college,
loaned his horse and carriage to Mr.
Walden, who made a trip down to
Fort Scott, around to OsawatOnie and
back. to Topeka by way of Lawrence,
urging the acceptance of the free state
constitution.
He lived in Kansas long enough to
see its adoption before returning to Ohio
Since returning east he has visited
Kansas only once previous to this time.
That was about thirteen years ago,
when he came here for the conference
Mr. Walden was not upon the occa-
sion of his first experiences in Kansas
minister of the gospel. It was not until
several years after that he was or
daired-
Meantime he has spent considerable
time as missionary in China and has
visited other foreign countries Bishop
Walden talked entertainingly Of China
in his address before the conference
here. He has become familiar with the
customs and habits of the people, and
was therefore able to talk with ac-
curacy and ability
Bishop Walden is growing old: his
hair has turned white. and it is with
care that he picks his way here and
there when walking, but he has been
endowed with a magnetic personality
which cannot help but winning friends
for him wherever he may go. despite
the fact that age is Caring on him.
He left yesterday to go to Baker uni
veTsfty- Before returning to the east he
will go to Eureka and Newton, where
he will hold conferences. He may stop
