perplexity over the cotton situation grows

orally regarded as being among the smart

ways. Either they are marking up the

NEW YORK COTTON.

New York, June 25-The cotton market
opened easy at a decline of ten points to
an advance of one point, the decline be-
ing in the nearby positions. which were
influenced by the lower cables and hqui-
dation, while the new crop months were
sustained by the indifferent weather and
unfavorable crop advices For a brief in
terval the market hung fire with the trade
apparently waiting for some indication as
to the position of the leaders. This was
soon forthcoming and the September OPP
ton in New Orleans shot up about 29
points in a few minutes with the near
months here following. July, which had
opened at 1890 and sold down on the call
to 12S7 was back to 1903 within ten min
utes after the call was completed, while
August rushed from II to Il. 80 and Sep
TENDER from II 10 to 11.94 with the later
months showing great activity and firm
ness On the advance it was stated that
there still was a large outstanding short
interest in the summer options. For time
the shorts were urgent buyers, the market
naturally had periods of lessened activity
and f1rmness, but setbacks were compare
lively slight until July had sold even with
reaching 1898 and September 1199 had
touched new high records for the season.
Then realizing became more insistent, bull
support was apparently withdrawn and it
was again reported that a settlement had
been effected between the more important
interest in the summer months and many
in the room again went short in the last
hour. The realizing was very heavy with
September showing weakness, closing 11.75

discoveries were made. A squirrel
was seen feasting on mushrooms,
white flowers changed colors when
placed in a bottle which had con-
tanned red ink, and "cute" turtle
egg did not last long when brought
in contact with something hard.
Finding that mild-looking examples
were very terrible indeed was as
unpleasant as the discovery Of a
merry surprise party behind sheet
was pleasant. A pretty egg, dis
agreeable crawling things, odd flow
ers, and a baby dress, were among
the discoveries.

is at least one good thing about it:
it furnishes a topic for a little
"preachment.'
No doubt all Juniors are looking
forward to a life Of usefulness, plan
ming what they will learn, and do,
and be by and by when they have
reached Grownup-land. One must
have a purpose if he wants to ac-
complish anything, but the first les
son he must learn is that attention
to details and painstaking- care are
indispensable to the realization of
his hopes. Let him be thoro in all
things, not forgetting Junior work,
and he will have a stable foundation
on which to build success.

NaNE2 day during the visit Of my
~ Southern aunt I was making
my bed in my usual harum scarum
way. She noticed that my method
of arranging my place of rest was
not the best, and as she thought
that thing half done is worse
than not done at all, she was con-
siderably annoyed. II will show you
how to make that bed correctly, my
dear" said she. moving toward me
with a superior air. I'VE will be-
gin with the pad. Place it smooth
ly on the mattress toward the foot
of the bedstead. Tuck the first sheet
well under the mattress at the
head, with the narrow hem escaping
at the foot. Place this sheet well
under the mattress at the sides.
Tuck the top sheet beneath the mat
tress at the foot, leaving it about
three inches from the head of the
bedstead. Place it between the side
board and mattress on each side.
Follow the same directions in re-
gard to the coverlet and spread.
Place the pillows in a half upright
position, with the hens of the pillow
cases outward, and then put on the

last night from the mother of Hector Cam

here by Detectives Berman and Herndon
yesterday and held to answer charge OF
larceny. The boys home is at 172o North

more than two weeks ago, and during part
of the time has resided at the Fredonia
Hotel, although, it is said, he has not PAID
any board. 1t was also stated that he WIS.,
tied charitable institutions. and yesterday,
when placed under arrest for alleged theft
he expressed desire to return home to his
mother.
Capt. Boardman notified the boys mother
of his arrest, and asked what she desired
done. She replied as previously stated.

REACHES MILLION MARX.
Aggregate of the Tax Collections TIC
day at District Building.

Mr.. E. G. Davis. the collector of taxes.
estimates that the realty and personal
taxes collected today will amount to
81 100000. All of this money will not be paid
in over the counters of the collectors office,
as the mails are heavily laden with checks.
AS a matter Of fact. the largest tax bills
are settled through the check system. 1t
will be some days before the bills mailed
to the collector will be reached and entered
upon his books.
Today being the last day on which taxes
for the past fiscal year are received with
out penalty. the assessors and collectors
offices were crowded with property owners
or their agents 1t was estimated that be-
tween 81 5000 and s. 100000 had been col
lected at the close of business at o clock
yesterday afternoon.
The collections have been larger than
ever before. This is but natural. owing to
the increase Of assessment values as fixed
in the triennial reassessment last year and
the imposition Of personal property tax
The estimated receipts from the taxes on
realty and personal property this year are
about So, 100000. OF this amount Collector
Davis expects to collect approximately
$300O.OOO. which will leave but 100000 in
arrears on both classes of taxes.
Tomorrow being legal holiday the Dis
trict building and tax office will not be
open. Beginning June l a penalty of
per cent a month is added to all taxes.
