League Manager came along and Signed
the Celebrity at a Figure representing
about four times what Theodore got FOR

Jimmy went out on the Circuit and began
to get his Name sprinkled all through
the Baseball Column. The only way Theo-
dore could have got his Name into the
Papers would have been by going out into
the Street and letting something run over
him. Jimmy mailed an the Sporting Pa

the Scores and see that he was Credit

Thus the obscure Name of Tilbury was
lifted to Renown. Mr.. Tilbury now has
a once-removed Hold on Fame, for he is

but the old man got all mixed up, ana
could not make head or tail of the mat
ter. He thought maybe a little drink OF
whisky might clear his 'idees" bit.
With this object in view, they went
across the lane TO neighboring bar
room to make the experiment. The old
man thought the drink did freshen up his
wits somewhat, so the waiter proposed
that they should try another; but even
after this the old man still found that he
couldn't exactly 'git de hang o. de busi-
ness"
This led to a third and fourth, by which
time Uncle Mingo began to feel decidedly
muddled and so announced that he would
postpone further examination OF the
methods of conducting the policy business
unti1 next day.
Then they set out to see little of the
town, and migrated from one barroom to
another. They encountered a number OF
the walters acquaintances, they treated
and were treated in return, and, in snort,
got on a regular tear; so that about mid
night, the fve-dollar note which Uncle
Mingo had broken early In the evening
looked exactly like thirty cents. the
old man was disgracefully drunk, ana his
companion was just as bad.
They came staggering along the street
arm in arm, leaning against one another
for support, and singing boisterously.
''Dis is de way we long has sought,
Eber sence we was boys"
Arrived at a corner, the waiter stopped.
"Hol' on minute, unc,' he said; lem
me light shegar"
He disengaged his arm from Uncle
Mingo's. AlasI in union there is strength.
He tried to strike a match on the sole
of his shoe, lost his balance, clutched
wildly at the air, and then toppled over
into the gutter.
After several Intellectual efforts to rise
he appealed to Uncle Mlngo.
Cant git up, unc;' gimme lif.
With extreme caution the old man
stopped ON the edge of the curbing, but
he soon found himself quite powerless to
assist. In fact, things were sailing
around so that he didn't know whether
he ought to lift his friend up, pull him
down, or merely try to hold him steady.

UNCLE MINGO ON A SPREE.
The old Man Did His Best to Assist
His Friend.

Among the guests at the recorders
matinee yesterday morning was the old
dsrkey familiarIy known as Uncle Min
go. He was accompanied by his friend
the restaurant waiter, and was looking
distressingly dflapidated.
The policeman reported that ne had
found the pair dead drunk and sleeping
in the gutter an hour or so after mid
night
The old man was profoundly Inundated
at his predicament, and fervently assured
the recorder that it was the first and last
time he would ever be ''cotch In SIGH a
Ak" AS it was a first offense the pair
were let off very lightly.
1t will doubtless be surprise that such
a thing should happen to so respectable
a person as Uncle Mingo; the way II came
about was as follows:
while Uncle Mlngo was eating supper
the evening before, the waiter remarked
to him:
"W'en you go home now. you got money
'nough 70 open sto'."
"Dunno bout dat" replied the old man;
II lows I'll open sump'n, but don't tink

not seem to be much Chance TO pad out

might turn out to be a Business Man

NEW ORLEANS C0TT0N FUTURES.


New Orleans, March 6.-Early prices
from Liverpool were favorable, as spots
were marked up 1-16d and deliveries were
steadier and higher the Improvement be-
ing due TO a natural reaction after such a
sharp decline. Our market in sympathy
opened to 9 points higher, declined i'm
mediately after on the subsequent weak
ness developing in Liverpool, which was
caused by large offerings from America
There was a rally of points later on the
light New Orleans estimate but the heavy
interior receipts and the Generalization
in the principal southern spot markets,
quoting values from 1-16c to &c lower
caused a break of points near the close
making the net loss l to points on the
day. All speculative markets have been
endeavoring to bring about a reaction for
the past four days. Longs having lqui-
dated and shorts covered heavily under
ordinary circumstances these features
would have brought about an advance in
deliveries. The fact is trade conditions
have not improved any, and it is natural
that consumers should pursue a hand to
mouth policy now when one considers
that press cables from Berlin to-day
says: THE South German cotton weavers
met at Stuttgart yesterday and voted to
restrict % per cent. of the production dur
ing April, May and June" Textile trade
advices from all countries are unsatis-
factory. owing to the relatively high val
ue of raw cotton, as compared to the low
price being received for the manufactured
product, and until a parity is established,
1t is prob ematical whether current values
can be maintained.

today and scarcely nay attempt was
made to bring about rally from the
tate &c decline, Notwithstanding the fact
that the crop movement for the day fell
short of expectations, and that early
English market news reflected change
for the better in sentiment abroad On
first sales prices worked up Gas points
with the market showing fair stability.
Covering by pit shorts as a matter of
Precaution led to a further rise of 3n4
points Immediately following the cali,
hut investment support was not tempted
in by the bullish news above mentioned
Cnd the public in general appeared to
nave given cotton up for the time being.
Liverpool turned a sharp corner on find
ing she trade here opposed to an advance
and furnished numerous selling orders
&c representatives in the pit. The South
and West which had bought small lines
of May and July on the initial advance,
turned sellers and not only unloaded en-
tire holdings, but became aggressively
Learish as we'll. Trading was light most
of the session. Noon found prices down
3 to 3 points from last nights closing.
Then estimates for light New Orleans
and Houston receipts tomorrow gave the
market a slight stiffening but still later
there was a renewal of selling for both
accounts and a sag in prices to the noon
level. The officials reports from South
eIn spot markets indicated no real
strength there. In the last half hour the
local market was feverish and weak un-
der German selling and pressure from
professionals. The close was barely
steady with prices unchanged to Z points
lower.
