Bronson Howard tells a good story
anent being interviewed. Some years
since he returned from England and
was waiting at the dock for his trunks
to be passed. A young reporter rushed
up to him, asking If he was addressing
Mr. Howard. Howard assured him he
was correct.
I've been sent to interview you"
"Go ahead" said Howard.
"Er--what is your profession?"
blurted out the youth.
Howard laughed.
"Ohl bless mel" he said, III we're
going back to first principles don't
you think we had better wait until
they've gone through my trunks?"

nrhe Other Side y

Trouble came to try him-no rainbow in
the skyi
The gentlest winds a-blowing had the
sorrow Of a sigh.
But he saw star a-shining in the firma-
ment on high,
And sang about ''The other side Of
JOrdani"
The Light-the Light was with himt the
light that ever dwels
In the soul that hears a welcome Ger
the saddest of farewells;
He heard the ringing-singing Of the
everlasting bells.
And sang about THE other side Of
Jordan!'
And the world. it heard his singing, and
gave back an echo true;
Its fading flowers quickened with the
freshness of the dew;
The shadows left the dim sky and all
heaven came in view
He sang about the other side Of
JOrdanl'

cothran & Co.'s Market Letter.

New York, August le.-Reports to us from the south this evening indicate that on the whole the weather has been more favorable during the week. although in some sections of the gulf states there Is complaints of too much rain, as a whole, however, the rainfall has not been excess sive.
 Damage by boil worm and boil weevil is claimed in portions of Texas, and from districts in Alabama and Missis- sippi there are reports Of Injury by rain.
 In Arkansas and Tennessee and along the Atlantic the conditions have in the main been satisfactory.
 An improvement in the forward deliv- more favorable opinion of the market in Liverpool today.
 The decline of 2 points on new crop options only adjusted parties but the sales of spot while small were executed at a material advance
 Cables stated that splnners believed in lower prices and were not fully covering their commitments in products by pur- chases of options
 The American exchanges were quite featureless Our market opened slightly higher without apparent reason beyond reports of weevil damage In Texas and reports of the presence of the pest in southern Arkansas. The weather map and forecasts maintained their usual ex- cellence and crop reports continue sat isfactory.
 Receipts of new cotton aggregated about 43O0 bales for the day and as suit able weather for picking prevails an in- crease in receipts of moment may be expected during the coming week. Fluc- tuations of the day were confined to ranges almost too narrow to admit Of scalping and interest was conspicuously lacking.
 New features are awaited with interest but conditions are as apt to lead to the belief that developments will be gradu- al with probably the movement assuming large proportions the most imminent, pending which time we expect a narrow market and we have but little doubt that ultimately lower levels will be ob- served.
 Wheat.-There were buying orders here without limit, on strong cables, with wet weather In the northewest were the fac tors for the wild opening. Instructions were given to buy at the best prices obtainable the conditions In the spring wheat regions being of such character as to create almost panic amongst farmers. There was enough buying in> December and May to widen those months out to near full carrying charges, with prices on new high levels. The market worked off towards the close on realizing but very few operators were courageous enough to put short lines as the feeling prevails that a calamity is impending that will result in very much higher prices while 1t Is creating great excite ment in the trade and many who have heretofore held back have thrown con- servatisms to one side and are bound to have some wheat at any price

BUYING WAS NOT GENERAL

New York August 1S.-The cotton mar ket opened steady at decline of one point to an advance of four points Cables were little below expectations on the new crop positions at the hour of tho local opening and the weather map was little better than looked for owing to the fact that 1t showed less precipitation than had been expected in view of yesterdays s forecast.
 But while the showing In this respect was evidently enough to encourage shorts to stand their ground ll did not promote offerings and the bulls found little diff culty in maintainging prices, which after wards were advanced to a net gain of about six or eight points when 1t was seen that the forecast called for further rains pretty generally over the belt for today. But buying did not become In the least general and in the afternoon profit taking by room longs eased the market off to about or slightly under the open ing figures. The close was steady at unchanged prices to an advance of two points. Sales were estimated not to ex- ceed 50,00o bales.
 The weeks into sight figures were rather disappointing showing only 1S,344 bales against 5379 a year ago, and while the new crop is moving more freely, receipts are still running under bearish expecta- tions. Houston today had 1,sn and ex- pets 1,7o0 or 1000 bales tomorrow, while Galveston received 2,56S bales and expects only 700 or 1000 tomorrow. Some inter est was attracted by the statement that 1884 bales of cotton were received here from Havre al.d 121 bales from Liver pool, but this was not considere of espec- il significance.
 Receipts at the ports today were S'S7S bales against 1,45S last week and 1,642 last year. Today's receipts at New Orleans were 2Sl against e. last year and at Hous- ton 1,e41, against two last year.
