BULL SUPPORT IS
 VERY AGGRESSIVE Advance in the Market is Con-
 fined to October
AVALANCHE OF SELLING
Bull Leader In Person Bids for 10000 September at 1f.6a Without Get ting Any Offer-The
 Close Is Steady.

New York, September 2.-The cotton points to decline of points. The ad vance was confined to October, which came in for considerable bull support on cal while the other months were gen. erally lower under continued liquidation.
 There was little of importance in the early news, the cables being steady, pos sibly a little better than expected, while weather accounts were good on the aver age and for moment or two the trade displayed some hesitation. This proved the signal for aggressive bull support, with the operations in September partic- ularly of a sensational nature. That posi- tion had opened at 11.45. It was forced up g. point or two at a time until it had reached around Il .s2, and then the bull leader in person bid for ie.0oO at .6S with out getting an offer. The rest of the list meantime was also rallied by good buy ing all along the line. and at the high point showed net gains of from to 16 points.
 The spectacular show of strength on the part of the clique, however, so far from alarming the shorts, brought in an ava lanche of selling orders from all quarters, and inside of fifteen minutes after Sep tember had reached Il 6S it was sold at Il 53 then II A, a net loss of points, while the balance of the list also sold ag- gressively, and was net to points lower.
 The selling at this level became lighter. and with room shorts seeing fair profits they returned to cover while the clique again bought freely of the near months. bringing about a recovery of several points, and during the balance of the ses- sion trading ruled less active and the market rather irregular. The close was steady at a net decline of 1 to points, with the late positions showing the great est losses, and at nearly the lowest of the day. Sales were estimated at SOO,OOo bales.

ANOTHER RUNAWAY.
Another runaway occurred on tie
seventeen mile grade. above Piedmont
Thursday night Had there been an-
OTHER train ahead destruction and
death would certainly have been the
lot Of tile trainmen, because the run
away could not possibly be controlled
until the down grade had been nassed.
Before arriving at Piedmont the train
was under control without serious
accident. The fact that the runaway
train passed the scene Of last SUNDAY !
catastrophe made the trainmen shud
der. When their train came under

railroaders congratulated each otiie.

In discussing the probable cause O
these frequent runaways, one expert
enced railroad man was inclined t
place much of the blame upon the ba'
condition of the brakes now used OF
4 the average freight car.

Goou MANNERS IN BUSINESS.

The value of brains in business can
not Dee oycrcstlmatcl, OF course. Bu,
neither can the value OF manners.
Don't make the error OF upposmg
that brains are everything. You may
have the best set of brains in the
town, but if you haven't the manners
OF gentleman nobody is going TO
appreciate you
Your manner is the outward udica-
tion of what you are within, in the
estimate of most people, and II g.
manner is disagreeable few will take
the trouble to examine into you fur.
thci
The concensus OF general opinion
is that the man who goes about with
porcupino quilts as his manners hasn't
any brains worth bothering about.
Did you ever notice that the men
who employ large forces of intelligent
people look at an applicant closely,
ask a few seemingly unimportant
questions and promptly employ or dis
miss him?
They don't sound his brain depth
they don't obtain this biography; they
don't inquire into his social standing;
they size him up from his manners,
and If he is brass on the surface they
don't look for gold within.
The employer knows that If an ap
plicant's manner strikes him fayora.
bly, il will also lavorabiy strike pco-
pie with whom he comes in contact
in his wor, And nobody knows bet
ter than a big business man that a |
favorable first impression means half |
the sale
People are apt to think that n
there is any place whore manners
are of little consequence, il is in bus
mess, whore cold calculation 80 largc-
Iy takes the place OF feeling. But IA
truth is that nowhere else are man
ncC5 Of such Importance as IN cv,
lay dealings
There is no capital aud equipment
any young man can have that will
pay him better than good manners.
There is no possible calling for which
his does not better At him
II he has brains, the world owes him !
something but unless hy ha. good |
manners ho will have hard time !

A Pronounced Success.

The Ardmore Lyceum course scored
another pronounced success last night
in the appearance at the opera house
Of Loyetts Boston Stars. The pro
sram of music, song and recitation
was in the hands of skilled people
and the Lyceum course patrons are
delighted with the entertainment.
There was scarcely a number on the
program that was not repeatedly en-.
corcd and in some instances the pee.
pie were not satisfied until two and
even three responses had been made
The personnel of the Boston Stars are
\. Abbot Iovett, manager; Miss Fran
ces Beckford, soprano; Miss George
Harvey, reciter: Miss Elizabeth Mayo,
violinist; Frank Reynolds, humorist
No singer has ever appeared on the
local stage whose singing was more
appreciated than. Miss Beclfords last |
night Her voice has a sweetness be-
yond comparison and had the program
been made up entirely Of her songs no
one would have been disappointed.
Miss Mayo captured the people with
violin music. They would never have
tired Of her playing She was com
PEELED to make response to every mum
ber and at some times she good-na
tured responded the third time The
other members Of the company were
good in their special lines Of work
and the entertainment was one Of the
most pleasant this season
