The Russian and japanese govern
ments seem to be pretty we'll satisfied
with the peace terms which brought to
an end the big war between these ma
tions, but the common people don't ap-
pear to like the arrangement little
bit. The exceptions in this class are
the Russian soldiers, who have intelli-
gence enough to realize they have re-
ceived an awful licking, and are glad
it's over. The Jap stay-at-homes seem
to be disappointed because Russia has
not been forced to pay the cost of the
war, and Peacemaker Roosevelt is ac-
crsed of playing into Russia's hand.
A bigger nation than Japan would have
been pretty we'll satisfied with victory
of that size.

He Failed to Win Her.

"How did lose her? My dear boy,
as easy as tumbling off a log-by
sending her box Of rare flowers.
You are astonished. Wait till you
hear what happened.
"I was in Florido md she was IN
Chicago, and I thought I'd clinch
the thing by sending her a box OF
orchids for her birthday celebration.
This is what I wrote on the card oc-
companying the flowers: Sweets to
the sweet. To one as fresh and sweet
and blooming as these flowers, which
are only the type of her own beauty.
Poetical, wasn't it? Unfortunately,
though, the box miscarried, and didn't
reach her in three weeks. By that
time the orchids were as dry and
shriveled up as last years leaves.
THAT was the last Of me as far as
she was concerned"

The Preachers Error.

Scda!1a (Mo.) Democrat.
In the early days of Springfield a
preacher bought some sausage for
lunch one Sunday and took it to
church with him. He carried the sau-
sage i'll the back pocket OF his coat,
and dog catching the scent followed
him. Every few feet the preacher
would kick backward at the dog with
out looking around. Arriving at
church, the preacher began the SER
vices, and the dog lay down behind
the altar.
A few minutes later one of te dea-
cons stole quitely up behind the
preacher, intending to hand him a
sheet OF paper, and pulled his coat
tail. Without glancing back the
kick and sent the deaconTAEoS. 80.
the preacher gave one vicious kick
and sent the deacon rolling down the
altar steps on to the dog, which set
up terrible bowling. The preacher,
still looking straight ahead, said.
my friends, this thieving soundrel
has been trying to rob me ever since
I made a purchase at the butcher
shop before coming here"
When the preacher discover what
he had done he dismissed the congre-
CATION and went outside to kick the
dog.

There is a constant tendency to
get past mere representatives and to

This is noticeable in language,

late phrase into simple form, it
should be so translated before use.

speaking of it in long words-rather
do such words serve to confuse and

COTTON MARKET BECOMES NERVOUS Big Demand Was Created by
 the Decline CLOSE IS DOWN 31 POINTS During the First Half Hour the Mar ket Rallied to Nearly the Clos. ing Figures of Wednes-
 day.
CLOSE IS DOWN 31 POINTS

New York, June 29.-The cotton mar ket was less active and very nervous. At times prices showed considerable firm ness but in the late trading there was very heavy liquidation and final prices were 14ns1 points net lower. The opening was weak at a decline of 11q22 points under selling for both accounts in re- sponse to disappointing cables, which were only for a five points higher at the beginning of the local opening.
 There was a big demand at the de- cline encouraged by continued strength of spot markets and reports of too much rain in some sections of the belt and inside of the first half hour the market had rallied to nearly the closing figures of yesterday. This was followed by con siderable regularity but prices showed a generally steady tone until toward the close when fear of revolutionary devel- opments in Russia added to some uneer- tainty over the influence of notices to- morrow caused active liquidation for both local and southern accounts. The close was steady at the decline with the late months showing the greatest losses. Sales were estimated at 55oO0O bales.
 Estimated receipts for the week. 7o,OOO against 77557 last week and 17.45O last year. Todays receipts at New Orleans, 3266 against 3l00 last year and at Houston 90l against fl last year.

Iovemsn 6 Co.'s Market Letter.

Realizing by longs in the English and American markets today resulted In a reaction of about one-fourth of cent July selling off to 9.39, October to 9.34.
 Liverpool was very much of a disap- pointment, closing about points lower than expected, but spots were aevanced points and sales were increased to 2'- GOO bales, middings, 5.32
 Weather conditions were somewhat more favorable, practically little or no rain in Texas, and while heavy rains were reported again from Arkansas. ben official rains were noted in the Carollnas where moisture was badly wanted.
 Russia's domestic trouble caused re- newed apprehension as to the probabil- ity of new complications forming. Mutiny was reported in the navy, and state of seize on the part of the reyolutionists was reported from Odessa where a pro- visionai government is said to have been established. Influenced by such develop ments, the local market opened about 15 points down and on general liquidation by longs, lost 10 points additional. As has been the case on such easy periods advantage was taken of the opportunity to get in at the low level. market advanc- ing on such buying until prices were up to last nights closing at 9 .S9a.J.40. after having sold as high as 9fS
 The New York Journal of Commerce summarized conditions in Texas and the Indian Territory as rather favorable.

Ware 6 Leland's Market Letter.


 The market rolled around in wonderful Lashloh today and seemed to be rud- derless storm tossed ship.
 We are likely to have other days very similar before the present speculative craze does out and things settle back to their normal state
 The effort is now being made to cause the belief in a crop failure. Sound reason- ing shows that this is not a safe thing to base such such prior advances as have recently taken place.
 A month or two ago it was a dues- tion what we would do with all the cot ton in the country.
 Now there seems to be question whether we will have enough cotton to go around.
 The market is suffering from the oper- ations of those who sold so confidently at cents.
 Before long the market will be suffer ing from the indescretions of those who are now buying so recklessly.
 We find nothing in the present situa- ton to warrant such operations as are now going on.
 Prices can be pushed much higher dur ing the speculative craze
 But traders must HOW realize that the market can break 75 or 100 points in short order on something appearing on the ho- rison that bulls fail to notice.
 Prices are now back where they were last summer, summer before last and the summer before that
 There is now nothing on which to base operations.
 We don't care to seh short and would wait for a good break.

New Orleans Cotton Market.

New Orleans. June 29-Spot cotton was quiet. While the offerings were very light factors were demanding full board figures for their holdings. Sales. 900 bales, including l00 to arrive. Quotations un- changed. Under the influence of unfayor- able Liverpool futures opened 13019 points lower. Soon after the first call an active selling movement was inaugurated which carried prices down until they were 26 points lower than yesterdays closing. This was followed by a rush of buying or ders. apparently from the outside public, this causing a rapid reaction. and most of the loss was recovered. Realizing by tinid longs again started the market downward. the decline continuing to near t,he end of the session. The market closed quiet, with net losses of 20 to 9 points.
