love into consideration, and becomes
engaged to a commonplace girl of the
English village in which the story is
placed. But after plighting his troth
in q most prOSaic manner, he meets
his fate in the person of Miss Mary
NorreyS, who is one of the daughters
of the Lord of the Manor of Brad
ford. Tom then turns his whole atten-
ton to winning Miss Norreys and as
her father is determined she shall not
marry a commoner, he finds it rather
difficult to accomplish. Homenes, as he
is a very wonderful person, not only
in his success in love, but in making
several fortunes of a million each, he
finally marrieS her and lives happily
ever after. There is only one mistake
in the book, and that is in calling Tom
an Englishman, for if ever there was
shining example of American hustle"
it is the hero of this entertaining story.
Horne and Scobey's Stories of Great
Artistry Olive Browne Horne and
Katherine Lois Scobey. American Book
company.
Intended for third reader grade this
book offers stories of the lives of great
artists, which will make a delightful and
valuable addition to the ordinary course
of study. The authors finding. no ma
terial of such a character available for
school use, prepared these sketches. The
novelty of the subject-matter will appeal
to teachers well as to pupils. and will
lead to further study of the lives and
works of these great minded and simple
hearted men. A specially noteworthy fea-
ture of the book is its numerous attractive
and artistic reproductions of the best
paintings of all times. These will aid ma
terially in arousing the interest of the
child, and in leading him to recognize and
appreciate the beautiful in art.

The words in this, speller were selected
by class room teachers after observing
the class vocabulary for a year. They
include, therefore, those words which re-
quire special attention, and which Will be
of most immediate practical use to the
child. They are arranged by years, from
the second to the seventh. and very care
fully graded according to difficulty. In
the earlier lessons the accentuation and
pronunciation of the words are marked
Illustrative sentences show the uses and
meanings of words with the same sound.
Among the selections for study are such
favorites as Writers Barefoot Boy
and Longfelow'S "Children'S Hour. The
book is based upon actual conditions in
the school, and not upon theories, and
will be proportionately successful among
practical teachers.

Baxter & Co.'S Cotton Letter.

New York, Jan. 12.-May showed a
little weakness in the early market
otherwise the changes We're unimpor-
tant and sales light. Later January
was sold down 3 points and March
and May followed. Gables were with
out special significance and it is gem
orally understood that the foreign
trade will be governed by receipts and
1 the first twelve days of January have
gone by without anything transpiring
that will convince the trade that the
movement is going to show much of an
increase. The probabilities are that
the heavy increase so confidently pre-
dicted will not occur. Isolated in
stances are heard of where cotton is
yet to be picked and marketed and
many of these are coupled with the
statement that good weather will yet
make a fine crop but still there has
been more or less rain again the past
week and more or less to-day, so that
the better weather is necessary for
swelling the rec eipts and it has failed
to materialize. Sentiment on the
whole, therefore inclines strongly to
the bull side and will continue so until
receipts show greater increase. Port
receipts $4,000 against $4,000 last year.
Heavy rain Sunday was reported at
New Orleans. Vicksburg, Montgomery
and Augusta. Gables were easy at the
advance.

H. & b. Beer Co.'S Cotton Letter.

New Orleans, Jan. 12.-Liverpool ad-
vices were not encouraging, therefore
our market opened l to 2 lower, but
improved l to shortly after on fresh
buying. The heavy Houston and Gal
weston estimates for tomorrow and
the easiness of spots superinduced a
decline of to Z from the top. Near
the close the fear that Messrs. r. T.
Wilson & Co.'S estimate would be
small caused improvement of to 4
from the bottom, making the net loss
to points on the day.
Manchester cables state that owing
to the violent fluctuations in the price
of cotton it was difficult to transact
business in clothes during the past
week. There was a fairly satisfactory
demand, however, from India and
China. In yarns there was feeling
of insecurity, and the turnover was
below the average. Receipts have eX-
panded some, both in the interior and
outposts. The trade though are now
waiting for Messrs. Wilson & Co.'S es-
innate before entering into new en-
gagements. Many believe this esti-
mate will corroborate small crop ideas,
while others think it may point to a
crop around 1900, 900. Irrespective of
what their figures are, in our opinion,
the movement will ultimately govern
the future course of values.

COTTON FUTURES.

New York, Jan. 1.-THE cotton

coming rather better than expected
Following the first call there was an
Improvement of a point or two. Re-
celpts pointed to larger figures and
selling became more or less general
with the result of turning the market
IN favor of the bear contingent to the
extent of to IL points from which
there was but little recovery, the
market being finally steady at a net
loss OF 3 to 8 points. Business was
small throughout the session, the total
transactions amounting in futures to
about 100000 bales Selling was
checked by comparatively firm advices
from the spot markets of the country.
quotations on the spot articles be-
ing sustained at all points except
New York, where there was a decline
or points. The local market was
weakened somewhat by notices" or
tenders of cotton to the amount of
about 5000 bales under which January
sold from S.64, to 1853, closing at S.54.
Public speculation was slack; what
there was of it favored the purchase
of March, May and August contracts.
But as a rule, there was little out
side interest in cotton, partly on fears
of manipulation in the direction of
depressing prices for the purpose of
undermining long cotton on the ground
that too much of the latter had ac-
cumulated for the size of the market.
During the afternoon, however, the
cotton thus offered was absorbed by
substantial people and the undertone
! of the market was finally quite firm,
with some demand from the short con-
tingent owing to the premium at which
spot cotton is commanding in the
South over the local parity for flu
lures.

The market for contracts was very
quiet. On the first call prices were
l to points up. This was followed
by gains of 1 to 8 points, but the
market soon showed a slight degree
of heaviness under the influence of bet
ter receipts and almost without the
slightest pressure by the bears, sagged
off to the extent of to points. After
slight fluctuations the closing showed
net losses on the day of 2 to points.

New York. Jan. 12.-Our market
opened with sales of March at $3.50,
and after selling at S.63c ruled at S64c
at 1 p. m. Although Liverpool closed
easy there does not appear to have
been any good reason for its depres-
sion abroad. Receipts are light and
the sentiment of the trade is univer-
sally bullish. To find anyone holding
a bearish view is a most difficult task.
Even the recent selling is believed to
have been covered to-day through
other brokers. Why then should the
markets be heavy. That is a problem
most difficult of solution. Certainly no
one is attempting a bear campaign as
the necessary ammunition does not
appear in sight, while everything en-
courages a forward movement. A lit
tie more cotton is coming into sight
in Texas but not enough to change
current estimates of the crop. A quiet
close with better foreign advices ex.
pected tomorrow. .+4. r.

There was nothing in the news to
offer a rational explanation of the de-
cline, unless 1t might be a rather less
liberal disposition on the part of the
banks and trust companies in the mat
