The Exports for the Day are
Very Full.
NET CHANGES ARE Small [
Stocks for a Time Make an Unsteady Stanc
Against Reaction, but Prices Break
Sharply Before The End Of
lha Session.
(By the Associated Press.

New York. March 25.-The cooler tenn
perature has had its effect upon dry goods
business. especially with second hands.
Values are still on high plane but man
ufacturers complain that at present fig
ures there is little profit and rather than
weaken they prefer to close their mills.
Unless cotton breaks materially the pros
pect of idle machinery is bright.
NEW YORK COTTON.
New York, March 25.-The cotton mar
ket opened steady at unchanged prices
to an advance of points and following
the call ruled rather irregular but mar
row and quiet. The opening Improvement
was chiefly due to the strengthening OF
the statistical position as indicated by
the recent heavy export movement which
encouraged renewed purchases for both
accounts. But after the initial gain prices
worked downward a few points under the
earlier estimates for today's receipts and
the less favorable accounts from the New
England mill situation. these factors, in
connection with the good weather in the
South, news of crop preparations and in
different cables proving more potent fac
tors than the small estimates for tomor-
rows receipts at Houston which were es-
timated at from 900 to 1000 as compared
with 3,2Gf bales last year. At the lower
level bulls again came to the support OF
values and the market reccqvcred to
about the opening figures around that
level with the bull leaders apparently
concerned in an effort TO maintain prices.
Speculation continued very quiet how
ever, and there was little outside de-
mand so that prices gradually slipped
away with new crop months showing the
greatest weakness. The exports for the
day were full, amounting to 1921 bales,
bringing the total thus far for the sea-
son up to 5,726,241 bales or 194,SS7 bales
over those for the same period last year,
and this checked aggressive selling so
that the losses were small and the mar
ket finally steady, net unchanged to )
points lower, this being the low point
of the day for the late months and with
in 2 points of the lowest on May and
July. Total sales futures 100000 bales.

''rhe old must die, the young
may" 1t was most solemn cere-
monial which was performed over the
remains of Allie May Powell the
young girl. just budding into woman
hood s promise. who died in this city
Sunday last. The services for the
dead were conducted by Rev. f. f.
Walters pastor of the Christian church
this morning and they were extremely
impressive.
The character of the young woman
A lie May Powell was such that she
endeared' herself to all who came in
contact with her. Her manner was
always pleasant and she had dispo-
sition which engendered friendship.
Besides the service by the pastor
this morning. Rev. J. Nj. p. Martin.
the head of the Grand Junction Busi-
ness College. which school the de-
ceased attended. spoke in the very
highest terms of praise of the deceased
as student. A large number of the
former friends and school mates of the
young girl were present this morning
to pay their last respects to the re-
mains of the deceased 1t was truly a
sorrowful and sad leave taking.
What made the occasion one to be
remembered was the fact that the
young girl was on the turning edge of
womanhood. being eighteen years old
and was not only beautiful in person
but in character.
The. obsequies were in charge OF
Undertaken Gourley.

We make a speciality of two rings
the diamond solitaire engagement
ring and the plain gold wedding ring.
The former binds the bargain and the
latter ties the knot. 1t you have the
girl we can furnish the ring at very
reasonable price.
An outfit of eye glasses or spectacles
is not expensive but the good it Will
do is incalculable. Better pay the
cost of perfect outfit and get perfect
satisfaction than try to save money
by purchasing cheap glasses. They
are never suitable. We have modern
high class instruments for testing the
eyes and can obtain accurate data
which enables us to fit eve glasses and
spectacles that are suitable in every
way.
We do fine watch, jewelrv and clock

The British treatment Of the Rev. E5enezer
Prime the aged pastor OF the old Presbyterian
church, still rankes in the breasts of descendants
of the first settlers. According to the records ex
tant. he turned out Of his house which was
used by the British officers His stables were used
for their horses. his furniture was broken while
the best books IL hiz library were mutilated and
destroyed. Mr. Prime died in 1779. during the war
and there minister in Huntington until l7S5
The town was between fires during the Revo-
luton The British quartered upon the people
despOiling the forcing its citizens to
work for them, and the patriots in Connecticut
supposng this work voluntary and that the sym
pathies Of Huntington were with the British were
constantly planning expeditions across the Sound
and raids upon the Tories as they STYLED them
Nevertheless il the records are to be believed
there is ample evidence that at heart the people of
Huntington We're truly patriotic. For instance. an
advertisement. published under date of March u
l77s. was headed Caution Travellers" and con-
tained the information that "a party Of rebels have
place Of resort at Bread and Cheese Hollow. on a
byr0ad leading from the houses of two men in re-
beion. viz: Nathaniel Plat and Thomas Tread
well, TO that of the noted Sam Phillips near the
Branch. They extend their operations along the
road from said Phillips to the well known Plat
Carlls They are said to be- commanded by a rebel
Major Brush"
Whenever the people OF Huntington could without
fear OF detection pick off British soldier or dra-
gOon they never failed TO do It is related that
the young patriots OF the town would tie a rope to
trees across road after dark. and when the Brit
ism officers came galloping into from the fort
on Lloyd's Neck they would b. knocked from their
horses by it. The young men hidden in the woods
near by would then pounee upon them and turn
them to the captains Of rebel whaIebOats on
the Sound. TO be taken across Connecticut as
prisoners.
The old records OF the town show that the value
