the spontaneous and unanimous
choice of the senior class committee
appointed for the purpose of select
ing the commencement orator, and
this choice was ratified by the class
with absolute unanimity. There
was not a single negative vote or
voice. The faculty never inter-
feres in such selection and used no
influence in this case, but, SO far as
known, is satisfied with the choice.
Rarely here or at any university are
speakers selected 50 completely
without opposition. No color line
is drawn in this university.

A Chicago man has observed that, Good deeds are better than real estate deeds-some of the latter are worth. less. Act kindly and gently, show sympathy and lend a helping hand. You cannot possibly lose by it." Most men appreciate kind word and en- couragement more than substantial help. There are persons in this com munity who might truthfully say: My good friend, cheer up. A few doses of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy will rid you of your cold, and there is no dan ger whatever from pneumonia when you use that medicine. It always cures.

Cotton Letter.

c. W. Lee 6 Co.'s Letter to Cothran &
 Go.
 New York August 21.-Taken as a whole, it has been a day of profit taking by the talent as well as the public. As a natural result, prices slipped down. ward sharply after futile attempts early in the session to continue the upward path followed for some ten days past There was nothing additional in the shape of bull news to warrant continued sup port while there were several influential bear factors In evidence, not the least of which was the sign of a breaking up of the drouth and hot wave in the cotton county. The market started off barely steady in tone with prices down l to 3 points, but soon rallied and for brief period held shade above the final bids of last night Toward midday reports of showers over the central and eastern portions of the belt and a forecast for showers generally either tonight or to- morrow in the cotton country, led to a general selling movement which carried prices steadily downward for the balance of the season.
 The Liverpool cables were disappoint- ing and private wires from the south declared holders of spot cotton were of fering staple freely at lower prices. Conservative operators at the close were expressing the opinion that the bull lead CTS have been unable to dispose of much of their enormous holdings and that when this cotton is put on the market sharp breaks are to be looked for.
 We see little in the situation at the moment to encourage purchases, in fact, rather look for a continuance of the liquidating and lower prices.

New York, August A.-Spot Rio steady; No. I, 71ac; mild, firm Cordova, S@11isc.
 Coffee futures opened firm with prices 1oa20 points higher. As for the past two days, the dominating influence was the bullish frost news from the crop country. Covering by local shorts was mainly re- sponsible for the sharp rise in prices. al- though European demand was active After this demand had been satisfied the list eased off under heavy profit taking led by bull leaders. Commission houses the rooms and Wall street were active reallzers later in the day, and prices crumpled rapidly, gathering further in- petus from a late cablegram from Brazil, which stated the damage by frost had been immaterial. Before the break was checked, prices had dropped below last nights final bids.
