New York, Dec 7.-R. G Duo $ Co.'S. Weekly Review of Trade says
 Further improvement ill the fna.G5-- cial situation is facilitating the rs3"- turn of normal commercial conditionrA but there is still a, great deal of i1G9 machinery at mills and factories. liN the leading industries a dispositlUE is shown to defer production antN there is no probability of cancellation. and consumers show an inclination tn place orders for forward deliveriesa;- Retail trade is fairly we'll maints.ig.,~- ed, demand for holiday goods assn1ae~ ing seasonable proportions, and erf- lections are more prompt.

COTTON PRICES
 STILL GO UP
Planters and Spinners Seem to Have CunSpired te Boost the Price Foreign Buyers Demanding
 High Grade Cotton.

New York, Dec. 1.-The cotton market this moring displayed a fur therv upward tendency. The Liver pool market was ignored as a mar lset factor, cables from abroad show ing fair declines on realizing sales. The conln; ssion @ house business was in fair volume and, the bull clique. bid prices up easily. The hul,ish week end statistics and the bu.lish spot cotton talk offset ny realizing usual on Saturday. Op'n- ions favor 8 ginning report around s and IA to 8 and 1-o million bales.
 The advance from the opening amounted from 13 to 17 points and prices held fairly firm at the top level. It seems that the farmer and planter are eonspiring with the spinner to advance prices. The planter by holding his reserves and the spinner. especially the foreign spinner, by demanding the high
 grade cotton from this crop. are the. opposing influences that are bring: ing about this advance. We favor the long side of the. market in. the 'ops run. A reaettean tae may occur ,; at any. moment. bbN Ne advise taking sdvaA.x.E eos this % get long ot the a-Ie!. 1 J. s. 'BNHE AND GO

 Named for South's Chief.
 Fl was born in Russellville, little town in the central part of Arkan sas, in 1862. No, l am in no way related to the late President of the Confederacy. but l was born in 1862, during the war, and my father named me Jefferson after President Davis. However. l sign my name Jeff Davis, and like to be called so. l have been in public life fourteen years. I served two terms as district attorney for my district; I believe you have county at torneys up here, but down in Arkan- sas they combine the. counties in dis |tricts, and each district has it's prosecuting attorney. Then l served two terms as attorney general of the State, and form that office was elect ed governor in 1900. I became gov ernor in January 1901, and served unti! January, 1907, three successive terms, being elected Senator while in office. I think that breaks the record in the S,:h. I do not know of any other instance. Gov. Taylor of Ten nessee. now also new Senator, served .'lree terms as chief executive of his State, but there was an in- terim.
 fBeckham Of Kentucky also was three times governor, but his first term w2s not an elective one, as he succeeded to the governorship when Goebe, yas killed, being then presi- dent Of 5ae legislature. or lieutenant governor, Senator Bob Taylor of Tennessee is a good friend of mine, and a first-class good fellow"
 Speaks We'll of All Men.
 Not a word of disparagement left the Senator's lips against any of the men whom he discussed during the interview. On the contrary, he had a good word for every one of them. And as the caller took his leave he bade him farewell with the same cour- .tesy with which he had received him, and then vent back to that important :letter-eeas rnsas tAat was Interesting him most, ofahe eve qe his first day as a ''o' the 'unfsed States

DESERTED BY HIS SON.
Yet With No Hard Words the Helule,,
 Old Man Goes to Poor Farm

Fort Smith, Sept. ls.-Lying upon litter waiting for the poor farm hack to take him to the poor farm, George Scroggius, an old man and a paralytic, on Mon. day told of his desertion by his son in the Blaine bottoms. The old man said that he became paralyzed on one side about three years ago. Prior to that time he had been able to do odd jobs and take care of his son. After he became parslyzed the boy worked industriously to support him, but a short time ago, learning that his father would never be able to work again, willfully deserted him.
 Scroggins was brought to Fort Smith by a neighbor and was taken to the county farm Monday afternoon. My son has gone back on me, but I will never go back on him." said the old man as a big tear coursed down bis thin cheek.

The Death of Mrs. Orr.

The readers of The Star will re- member the sad death recently in this city of Mrs. Wilson Orr, who had come here from Kenna, N. M., in the hope of recovering her health.
 The following was clipped from the Kenna, (N. M.) Record:
 Mrs. Sallie Orr, wife of Wilson Orr, U. S. Court Commissioner at this place, died at Mena, Ark, Fri day morning last.
 Mrs. Orr had been confined to her bed for the past six months, and everything was done to hasten her recovery that loving care and skilled physicians could do, with but little avail. However, Mrs. Orr improved some, and about a month ago she was carried to Mena, Ark, where her people reside, and the former home of the family. where she and her friends hoped for ultimate re- covery.
 During the first days she improved and she, with her husband and friends, was encouraged with the hope that she would soon be restored to health, when suddenly Mir. Orr received a telegram bearing the sad intelligence of her death.
 Mir. Orr left on the first train for Arkansas, but it is feared that he did not reach his destination in time to be present at the interment, which was to take place at Mena.
 Mrs. Orr is survived by her hus- band and five small children, also relatives in Arkansas.
 The Record, with host of sympa- thizing friends. join the bereaved ones in sympathy and regret for the seemingly untimely death of this loving wife and mother Kenna (N. M.) Record
