New York. May 4--The cotton market opened steady at decline of s to 12 to'nts under liquidation and some selling caDies and generally favorable early weather advices. At first there was fome hesitation but 1t soon developed that room shorts were covering presumably as q result of the continued light movement And talk of still further reduction in supplies as result of exports and u tetter demand from domestic spinners While 1t alec appeared that the more ag- gressive attitude assumed by leading southern operators recently was leading 70 apprehensions as to position of the summer L2onths. At any rate the mar Ret almost at once began to improve. led by the old crop positions which were IF demand by shorts and spot houses and while the favorable weather accounts naturally exerted a depressing effect on the new crop positions this was offset to SC me extent by further adverse crop &C., counts as result of the less favorable climatic condition of the past few weeks The very light estimates for the days movements were reinforced as an infiu- ence by light estimates for leading points tomorrow and led to a belief in a very bullish into sight showing tomorrow In addition to this very bullish messages were received from New Orleans with rrmors Of corner in the main position In that market, but while all these bullish items had their effect here they seemed rather to restrict selling than to greatly stimulate demand so far as the old crop positions were concerned. Prices, how ever, continued to creap upward until in the afternoon July was selling at 13. soc and October u.47c. a net advance of 10 to

their success was manifest in the
smoothness which marked the EN-
tire evenings program.
The committee upon decoration,
Capt. Mclean, chairman, had given
the whole of the large armory
military appearance by combina-
ton of small flags and sabers along
the gallery, while on the wall in
front was one enormous flag. Bunt-
ing and electric lights were used
on the ceiling with fine effect, and
stacks of guns about the floor re-
minded the guests of the stern real
tiles of war. The presence of ten
officers from the University of Ida
no battalion added much to the en-
joyment of the occasion, and the
different colors and style of their
uniform heightened the brilliancy of
the evening.
While the guests were assembling
the battalion band of 40 pieces, un-
der Prof. Strong's direction, rem
dered an overture. At 10 o'clock
the grand march was formed, led
by Capt. Kirzie, I'd US. Inf. (reg. J
and Miss Kinzie. Following them
came the Idaho commandant, Capt.
Chrisman, 10th u. S, Inf. (reg. ,
with Mrs. Chrisman, and then our
own commandant, Capt. Kimmel,
sd U. S. Art. (reg.) and Mrs. Kim.
mel. Next came the patronesses,
with their escorts Mrs. Van Doren
with Capt. Fulton, Mrs. Barry with
Capt. McCabe, DR.. and Mrs. Mel
son, Prof. and Mrs. Roberts. Fol-
lowing these were Major Schuele
and Miss Spaulding. The captains
and lieutenants fell in next, those
from the U. of I. preceding in each
case. The non-commissioned Off
GERS and privates were followed by
the civilian guests.
After the march the band gave
two dance numbers and was then
replaced by a 12-piece orchestra and
the regular program began. The
dance orders were in gray, with red
lettering, combining with good eff
feet the College colors. Between
dances the guests promenaded the
gallery and partook of punch which
was served upstairs.
There were many beautiful gowns
worn by the ladies, those of the pa
tronesses deserving special mention.
Mrs. Kimmel wore yellow chif-
fon over yellow silk Mrs. Kinzie
and Mrs. Van Doren, black net ov-
er black; Mrs. Nelson, gray crepon
over pink; Mrs. Barry, old-rose silk
and Mrs. Roberts, green-and-white
foulard. Many visitors from Col
fax, Spokane, Garfield, and Mime
apolis were present. The ball was
especially enjoyable from its formal
character, and has added great eclat
to the military department of the
Pullman herald. [volume] (Pullman, W.T. [Wash.]) 1888-1989, 1904-02-27
How / Killed the Bear

chilly January morning things
came to a crisis, and Jem threat
ened to burn my wooden leg if l
didn't promise to help him get
some wood. Wecompromised after
q little discussion, and put the last
knot into the stove. Then l placed
a pot of stew on the back of the
hearth to keep warm, while Jem
hung small ham on rafter close
to the stove pipe to keep dry. Jem
then shouldered the ak and | the
saw and we were off to find a dead
tree that would burn well. We
went past the we'll and down to the
lake, which was short distance
from the cabin, and entered our
boat. We rowed slowly down the
shore. watching our two dogs, Augo
and Funsto, chase each other here
and there among the scattering
trees. Presently we picked out a
dead snag about one hundred feet
up the hillside because it could
easily be rolled down into the lake
and towed home. We pulled ashore
and tied our boat. Then we took
be ak and saw and scrambled up
the hillside to the tree. Hamfat
struck the tree. few blows with
the ak to test it's quality, when, to
our surprise, we heard a scratching
and snarling from within the trunk
of the tree. Hamfat gave a whoop,
"a bar" and gra bbed one end of the
saw.
The dogs barked and jumped
about the tree in their anxiety to
give Bruin chase. Nevertheless,
the sawdust continued to fly and in
few minutes the tree lay on the
ground against small stump, par
allel to the hillside. We darted to
the open end of the tree, thinking
the chase had begun. But contrary
to our expectations, Bruin backed
farther and farther toward the
closed butt, where he continued to
emit growls and grumbles. Poking
sticks in at the open end of the
tree proved useless, for he would
snap them off as fast as we could
shove them to him. We tried to
get the dogs to 60 in, but they
would not. So we measured back
and cut the log off just behind
Bruin. This only caused him to
move up little until he was some
where near the center of the tree.
No amount of barking from the
dogs or probing from US would in
duce him to come out. We next
tried to- get the dogs to go in behind
the bear, but of no avail. They
would run about, peep 10 at one
end of the log and then the other.
Becoming tired of this, Jem decided
to GO lin behind Bruin and pull him
out provided / would have the ak
ready to dispatch the bear as soon
as ne came out. No sooner had
Jem's feet disappeared within the
log than the dogs suddenly became
brave and no amount of coaxing
could keep them from crowding in
after him. "a
The bear moved little as though
ne was going to turn around, and
lem cried, Sam, Sam, take the
dogs out from behind me-" tried
70 hurry but my wooden leg caught
and | fell against the log with such
lorce that it started rolling and
pumping down the hillside.
There was bowling, yelling and
snarling as the log rolled down
toward the lake. Then came a
crash for the tree struck stump,
