Business in New Orleans.

The following excerpts from Dun's
Review of June 10, showing general
and market conditions at New Orleans,
viii prove of interest:
General Conditions-Distribu OF
merchandise through jobbers is not
large, but is up to the average of the
season. The spot trade in dry goods,
notions, shoes and clothing is COM
paratively light, but orders for fall
delivery are coming in satisfactorily.
Merchants in some sections still show
a disposition to await the outcome of
cotton before placing orders. In Sec
lions devoted to sugar, rice and other
crops, merch ants are buying more
freely. Retail trade continues good
and collections are fair. The demand
for all classes of building material
continues good, and manufacturers of
brick, lumber and woodworking plants
are all operating to their full capacity
to supply orders. The movement of
grain through New Orleans is largely
in excess of year ago. Receipts
and shipments, mainly for export, are
this year between 100000 and 7,000,-
600 bushels in excess of a year ago.
Cotton-The cotton market sustained
a considerable decline after the issu-
ance of the government crop report,
which showed a larger acreage than
expected and the condition of the
growing crop more favorable than was
looked for. The market reacted later
and for the past few days has advanced,
closing very firm, but quotations are
still about thirty Or forty points under
what they were week. ago. Spots
also declined, but quotations have
again been advanced, prices having
been marked up one-eighth Oh Thurs
day. The spot market is very firm
and the demand has been good. Re-
ceipts of cotton were 9,334,07 bales,
against 1920, 1913 bales last year.
Stocks at al ports were 1872, 1859 bales,
against 259, 298 bales last year.
Rice-Receipts of rough rice for the
season amount to 1854 sacks,
against 1889, 1872 last year, and re-
ceipts of clean rice 844, 429 pockets,
against 498, 049 last year. The market
continues very strong. Trading is of
good proportions, and while there has
been no advance, prices are being well
maintained on all grades. The Louis
lana crop movement is reported by
Dan Talmage's Sons as follows: Re-
ceipts, 2, l62, 855 sacks rough, against
1888, 800 sacks last year, and sales OF
4, 765, 1863 pockets cleaned, compared
with 1885, TT pockets in 1904
Sugar-1he market for plantation
sugar has been rather dull and quiet,
receipts and offerings being light.
Molasses is quiet, with offerings very
limited.

Among the decisions of the supreme
court OF the state handed down last
Monday was one reversing the judg-
ment OF the lower court in the suit by
which a number of the teachers III pub
lie schools in New Orleans sought to
compel the board of liquid ation of the
city debt to make provision for their
claim for back pay. The finding OF
the inferior tribunal was favorable to
the teachers, and it is to 10 regretted
that the learned judges .of the higher
court felt compelled to take q different
view Of the Law applicable to the case.
Our public school teachers are but
poorly paid when they get all that is
promised them, and it is shameful tn at

pensation should be- withheld. Ii
seems To us that this is striking in
stance OF the too frequent variance of
law and equity.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications. as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by c6nsti-
infamed condition Of the mucous lining of the
ustachian ube. When this tube is infiamed
you have rumbing sound or imperfect hear
ing, and When it is entirely closed deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh
which is nothing but an inflammed condition
of theanucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of deafness (cansed by catarrh1 that can

Saturday.

To harmoniously arrange trees,
shrubs and herbaceous plants, and at
the same time adjust them to the con-
tour of the place, to the architecture of
the buildings and to the convenience
of the walks and drives, requires the
professional skill of the trained land
scape gardener Such man is Prof.
Anderson, one of the officers of the
Home. AS his guide and model he
takes Nature, and in so far as she is
followed the work is always pleasing.
Every successful attempt to adorn a
suburban place, OF park, has valu-
able influence upon the community in
which it is situated. 1t furnishes an
object lesson which others will attempt
to follow, and in this way it serves the
useful purpose of stimulating love for
the beautiful in nature.
1T is regretted by many that several
rows of evergreens have not been plant
ed along the railroad track so as to de-
fleet the sound of the whistle of the
measly switch engine. The nerve-de'

tantalizing monster is believed to be
in pursuance of definite policy to an

sick and dying men in the hospital are
the greatest sufferers, and if this intol-
erable nuisance is not abated steps will
be taken to compel the cessation of this
outrage. AS a means of emphasizing
our protest against such Satanic indie

The distinguishing characteristic
that accentuates the peculiar traits ex-
hibited by the ladies Of the Sycamore
Shoals Chapter, is to found in their re-
tention of much of the old Scotch and
English manners. There is still per-
ceptible bits of dialect and phrase,
which show how little they have been
affected by the influences which have
so transformed the populations Of
Northern communities. They live in a
region that is rich in historic tradition
and natural beauty, that has not yet
keen forced to yield its charm and Sc
clusion to the vulgar ostentation that is
faunted in our face by the "New
Richesse. Until recently immigra-
ton has had but little inducement to
come and unlock the treasure house Of
the grand mountains Of the Southwest,
and 80 the people have lived under
pretty much the same customs that pre-
vailed in the earlier days before the
rushing, turbulent current of immigra-
tion had changed the courtly manners
of colonial chivalry. Yet the absence
of the Saratogian rout of carriage and
drag and the ultra style predominant
in every costume, instead Of taste, sim
pllclty and common sense-that seems
typical of other localities-hav had
their compensating advantages among
the women of Southwest Virginia, by
allowing the growth of families, in
which hereditary love of culture and
refinement, and the strictest attention
to those graces and cOurtesies which
always distinguish pure and dignifie6
society, are pre.eminently conspicuous
