TO CURB TRADING
PRESIDENT SHAEFER OF NEW
YORK EXCHANGE SAYS RULE
WILL BE VIGOROUSLY EN-.
FORCED IN THAT CITY.

New Orleans, January 7--Tt is consid-
cred probable as the result of telegram
received here from New York today that
the local cotton exchange will take steps
to put stop to all curb trading" The
telegram from President Schaefer to the
New York Cotton exchange said:
IT understand that orders are frequently
sent here from New Orleans parties to
buy or sell after the close of our mar
ket as commonly called. on the curb.
The authorities of this exchange are
firmly resolved to enforce the law which
positively prohibits trading after hours.
This applies, of course, also to members
of your exchange who are members of
the New York exchange. May l ask your
cooperation In stopping the practice"
Secretary Hester said the local exchange
would take action in the matter.
New York, January 7-President
Schaefer of the New York Cotton ex-
change said today that the object of his
message to the New Orleans exchange
was to prevent further trading on the
curb here. A rule of the New Tx ex-
change prohibits trading after the clos
ing hour. but this rule never has been
enforced. The attention of the members
of the local exchange, many OF whom
are also members of the New Orleans
exchange, was today directed to this rule,
and any further violations will be severe
ly dealt with.
The New Orleans exchange has been
asked In effect to direct its members not
to send orders to this city after o'clock
New Orleans time, which is o'clock New
York time.

THE RIGHT SPIRIT

There was a good healthy tone to the mass convention held at the chamber Of commerce last night. Itwas made evil dent that the people of Skagway know what they want and how to ask for it. No one minced words iu declaring in favor of the principle of seltgoYern- ment There was manifestation of that old Skagway spirit that has never failed to respond to duty's call.
 There Is little doubt but that the convention that will be held at Seattle will declare aalrmatively upon all the questions voted for last night. The at ,isude of Nome and Fairbanks and other towns make that seem certain, and it will be something iu which the people otSkagway caa take a great deal of pardouable pride, for it will commit the dis,rtc, to principles for which Skagway has battled for many years.

true happiness and contentment rest
A bout and in this first home the gentle
touches of Nature were apparent. The
softest of NOSES carpeted the floor, and
upon the walls there bloomed the most
fragrant and beautiful of flowers. In
the early morning light their petals
were just opening prepared to give the
sun smiling welcome as he rose above
the trees and flashed his morning greet
ings upon them
The call of the birds and the stir OF
Nature have awakened the inmates OF
the home, and their voices are heard
in alteration and praise, for their first
waking thought. has been Of Him Who
made them and gave them the breath
of life, and blessed them, and provided
them with the shelter and bounty of
the Garden.
The happy pair pause upon the
threshold and drink in the beauty OF
the scene before them. Ewes face mir
rors the JOY that fills her soul, and she
smiles up into the face OF her husband,
while he, with earnest, thoughtful look,
watches the sun play his light upon
the tall tree tops.
The fruit-laden trees on either hand
held out their tempting viands, and as
they went they gathered and did eat
The birds fitted hither and thither in
search OF seed and berries, the animals
great and small throughout the Garden
were satisfying their hunger, for God
in His Nature had spread a bountiful
table for all. and none had reason to
lack.
Without realizing the direction in
which they were going, they came to
the center OF the Garden Just as they
had finished their simple but abundant
repast Before them stood the trees
of mystery, the ones to which the Lord
had made special reference In His talk
with them. Right at hand the great
spreading branches OF the tree Of
knowledge Of good and evil, ladened
with fruit, swayed in the breeze. The
sight gives q new direction to their
thoughts, as they recall the Lords SOL
emn admonltion and warning.
why should we wish to partake OF
the fruit of this tree when our Lord
has given us freely OF every other tree
OF the Garden" both exclaimed almost
in the same breath.
Yea, before we reached this point
God had satisfied us with His good
thing" Adam continued. 1T were 10
take that for which we have no need.
If we did eat of the fruit Of this tree.
We may well be content with the boun-
ties on every hand" So spake Adam.
And is it not always true that we have
no need of the things which are con-
] trary TO the will Of God for US?
Alma record. (Alma, Mich.) 1878-1928, 1905-02-10

But why, I wonder, did God put
this tree here? Why did He forbid our
eating of -, What did He r.ean when
He spoke Of death?' Thus musing.
Eve turned to her husband but he
shook his head in answer, and said:
81 cannot tell. II $ enough that God
has spoken We must wait to under
stand"
Poor Eve, little did she realize that
day the bitter way which lay before
her! And not until years later as she
gazed in anguish upon tho face Of her
dead boy. her beloved Abel, did she Le-
gin to know the penalty of disobe-
dience and sin.
The days came and went in the
Garden home. Peace and purity
reigned supreme. The Lord came to
visit and talk with them. The days
of rest brought their sweet fellowship
with the Heavenly hosts. and the har-
mony of their rich, full voices and
harps During the days of toll Adam
labored faithfully in dressing the Gar
den and training the vines and
branches. Each day found some new
comfort added to the home, and
brought some new discovery of the
wealth and resources of the Garden.
The creatures of the Garden yielded
ready obedience TO Adams wise and
kindly care. No task which he put
upon them was beyond their strength
or unnecessary to be done. All the
activities OF the beautiful place were
but the expression of Gods will Man
and beast and bird filled each his own
allotted place and delighted in the
unity and peace and harmony which
prevailed.
Another day had begun like all the
rest. The morning awaking with
the birds, the songs OF praise and the
outgoing thoughts toward God, the
bright greetings OF the sun, the walk
in the garden and the simple repast
Adam had gone forth to the work OF
the day. and Eve was busy at home. II
seemed like all the other days and
gladness and peace were all about.
Suddenly the darkness Of midnight fell
over the Garden, and Adam was heard
rushing and stumbling down the path
way to the home. All in a trembls
Eve threw herself into the arms Of
her husband and cried in terror:
What is 1t? What can IL be?"
With effort Adam steadied his voice,
and then replied: IL know not As
| worked out in the clearing thought

earth with his light this awful black

US. We need not rear" AS he ceased
speaking. and while yet the blackness
continued. there was flash across the
heavens as though some heavenly body
sundered from its moorings had fallen.
Then the darkness lifted and the day
shone as brightly as before. The Gar
den in all its beauty was displayed and
the birds took up the strain of their
songs where few moments before
they had been rudoly interrupted.
The days following this incident
brought no explanation, and failed TO
dlspel the feeling of impending trouble.
As Adam and his wife walked through
the Garden paths, though their eyes
saw naught but the accustomed sights,
though the birds sang overhead and
The creatures all about them peacefully
led, still they had the feeling that
other presence was there, that other
eyes were upon them But the ques-
honings of their hearts found no an.
