DELIGHTFUL RIDE.
Party went to Keyp0rt to Visit L0dge-A
Beautiful Night.

Joseph Lykes, of Bay View House,
reports a very enjoyable time at the
18th anniversary of the Lady Colfax
Lodge No. 10 1. o. o. F., of Keyport,
which he attended in company with
seven members of Lady Grace Lodge,
of this borough, Monday evening.
The ride in a large covered wagon
with comfortable side seats, was a
very enjoyable one.
The air while driving through the
woods was very mild and scented with
hthe spicy odors from the same until
Ithey reached C~heesequake, when they
Hnhaled the air from the waters of the
creek and very soo noticed the
change. Mr.. Charles Rose furnished
the wagon. AT Keyport they met a
number of guests from Newark, Jersey
City and Asbury Park. Refreshments
were served and a very pleasant time
was passed while there. Brother
Joseph Lvkes, with others, entered
into social chat and remarks were
made concerning the number 10
Some said the number was never
thought ~unlucky, but it was now CON
sidared quite as lucky as No. z.
Brother Lykes seemed quite elated
wei the fact that, as he stated there
and then, he had brought seven sisters
along with him that evening. Coming
home the night was made very bright
with Luna's smiles, and the ride
doubly enjoyable as she sailed grace
fully in the sky overhead and lit up
t he woods around them.

II their first story was not reliable it was not their fault. They had used every effort possible to get the correct news, and they had a right to believe they had done so. At any rate, the Record Miner must admit that the first reliable news of the Discovery was also pub llshed by those papers.

 By Gilbert & Clay
 New Orleans, August 1.-The lower fig ures recorded at our opening were in re- sponse to a Liverpool market. the dis appearance of the gulf storm. and gener- ally fair weather conditions prevailing over the south Prices thereafter fluc- tuated within a narrow range, with senu- ment mainly against the market. A decline of any consequence in the English market can only be brought about by an increase of stocks and the rumor that exports of some magnitude would shortly be made to that market, was doubtless an ineen- tive to the liquidation of speculative longs reported in private cables. and the sub sequent weakness in the near positions, materially assisted by the glowing crop reports sent from this side. Barring the srength of spots and the statistical posi- ton of the English market cotton is at the moment without supporting features. Short sellers are cautious but with con tinuance of present fattering prospects will no doubt incline to greater activity and In the absence of outside support, result in the deadlock broken by the mar ket seeking lower levels, temporarily at least
