Wouldn't Swap for Castle in Spain
COtLOn department
Per HUGH +. NJ ELROY.
washington Post.)

Il wouldn't swap my country place il
the North Carolina mountains for a
castle in SPAIN" remarked Col. 0. H.
Brown of Buffalo, N. Y, at the Riggs
House.
Il bought a farm there in Pennsylvania
county some ten years ago, and it has
afforded me more real happiness and sat
isfaction than any investment l ever
made. Really, with each returning sum-
mer l am prouder of my Carolina home
and keener to migrate from the North,
My two boys love the mountains as we'll
as l do and take some of their chums
along when they go South, without ever
asking Leave of me-
Though | haven't farmed for profit in
North Carolina, still raise each year
enough on the place to pretty nearly
balance all expenses, and l have made
improvements of a valuable character A
man who can own a home in this part
of the United States ought to deem him
self fortunate"

A Number of Bullish Advices
Boom Cotton.
MARKET FINALLY EASY
The Prices in Yesterdays Stock Market Retraced
ihs Course Of the Day Before Leaving
Traders More Discouraged
Than Ever.

New York, April 30-In the dry goods
market today no material Improvement
is to be noted in buying. Reports from
local retailers state that they are not as
busy as might be expected for this time
Of year. With cotton at its present level
there is little warrant for manufac-
turers to shade prices The compare
tive scarcity of raw material is another
factor which adds to the strength of
sellers.
NEW YORK COTTON.
New York, April 30.-The cotton mar
ket opened steady at unchanged prices to
an advance of points under better Liy-
erpool cables than expected and unfav-
orable weather reports, notably frosts in
Northern Texas and Oklahoma. After
ruling rather irregular for brief pc
riod, however, it turned slightly eager
under liquidation and declined to level
net one point lower to 2 points higher.
From this the market was rallied sharply
partially as result OF renewed pool sup
port and partly by out of town buying
orders which showed a preference for the
new crop months owing to the unfavor-
able weather and reports that the move
ment would show a falling off in the near
future, backed up with small receipts.
The exports werd heavy, footing up A.
3S3. In addition the forecast called for
still colder weather in the South and for
time prices were worked rapidly upward
with shorts betraying no little anxiety
May sold up to 1000, was within points
of the highest for the season, while Au-
gust sold even with the previous high
point and July was within eight points
of the record. Toward the close, how
ever, theAG was another wave of liquda-
ton, especially in the near months and
the market was finally easy, net to 5
points higher, or to points below the
best of the session. Total sales estimated
10000 bales.

ed by malice in bringing the matter
to the attention of the grand jury.
The further investigation of alleged
transactions in postoffice affairs in
Nebraska by the grand jury has been
temporarily postponed by demands on
that body to hear other cases, the
greater number of them concerning
affairs on the Indian reservations. 1t
is stated, however, that this latter
work is now completed and that post
Office matters will be again taken up
by the grand jury today The post
offices at Alma. Oxford, Orleans and
Arapahoe are now being investigated.
Ordinarily the trials of Senator Die
trich and Postmaster Fisher would
not come up in the federal court fo-
two or three months, but it has been
stated that Senator Dietrich. is anx-
ious to have the cases tried at an early
date, and should he express such o
desire it is probable that the court
would make an effort to advance the
cases on the docket. Nobody IN
Omaha has learned from Senator Die

fore the court, but>he is expected to
arrive here at no distant date.

DEBATE WITH O. S. U.
Desirabllity OF Municipal Own
ership to be Discussed.

Vest Virginia Will Affirm Undesira
biIity Debating Club Organized
o. =. O. Debates Question Will
Oberlin - Preliminary Debates Il
Choose Team.
Many Of the most important par
tieuiars for the debate between the
representatives of the State Univer.
stiles of West Virginia and Ohio
have been arranged. The challenge
OF Ohio State was accepted only a
few days ago, but the West Virginia
students have been busy and little
now remains to be done except to
pick the debaters.
Yesterday the w. " Z. debating
club was organized with D. G. Cup
pet. president, s. G. Douglas vice
present, N. R. Dougherty, secretary
and f d. Turner treasurer. About
twenty members have joined the
club.
The question selected for debate
is: Resolved that municipal owner
ship of public utilities is undesir.
able" The question was submit
ted by Ohio State with the request
that w. V. U. take the affirmative.
Gberlin University submitted the
question to O. S. u. for the annual
debate between those colleges. O.
S. u. has the affirmative in that con.
test. She wants to take the negative
in the w. u. V. debate
OF course there can be little OBJ.
lection to this, if the Oberlin debate
occurs after the w. V. q. debate
Otherwise West Virginia will be al
a disadvantage. The question is
stated negatively, the affirmative de
nying the desirablility OF municipal
ownership and the negative affirming
1t. 1t is just the kind that might
be expected to come from Ohio. \
The w. V. Z. team will be select.
ed by two preliminary contests. The
first of these will he held December
10th, and is open to all students oil
the University. Competent judges
will select twelve of the best par.
Elephants.
The speeches in this contest will be
on the question for the inter-collegi-
ate debate, and will be limited to five
or six minutes. The twelve selected
will debate the question, six on a side,
and competent judges will again
choose three from these 2 to repre-.
sent the University, One alternate
will be chosen.
The date of the meeting has not
been selected. The O. S. u. -Oberlin
debate occurs in March.
