Men 40 Boarders.

A woman who has made a modest
competence by running private no.
tel says she would rather have women
as borders than men. Perhaps they
are little inquisitlve about one an
others Affairs, she admits. and dis
posed to find fault oftener than they
are justified In doing. On the other
hand, they usually voice their com
plants either directly or in such a
manner that the criticisms soon reach
the landlady's ears. Men, on the con-
traTy, don't lodge 80 many open COM
plants, but they make bitter remarks
one to another, and II IL seldom their
remarks are repeated to the hostess
until too late to Offset their bad effect
This woman puts herself on record as
saying that when men are inclined to
be at all disagreeabIe they are much
more difficult TO deal with than wo-
men. One can always soothe disgrun.
tied women by little extra attention
to their comfort, she says. but the
male boarder or hotel guest who I'M
dertakes to critlcise place harshly IL
hopeless case Kansas City Star.

will recover something of It's old-tme

As O matter of fact, speculation In

NEW YORK, May 1.-THE cotton mar.

West was good buyer in the local market.
The high point was reached In the late ses-
sion when July sold at 11.06 and January
at l1.4l The close was within q point or
two OF the best. Expectations Of a bullisl
visible supply statement probably helped
the advance, but the main thing appeared
to be the idea that the new crop had suf-
fered serious setback as q result OF recent
unfnvorable weather.

NO INTEREST IN MARKET
Disgust With Heavy Losses
Makes Traders Leave Stock
Alone,

NEW YORK, May 17.--The stock
market to-day continued to show al
most entire neglect on the part of the
general world of capital and finance.
Such speculative interest as exists finds
n more attractive field In the grain
and cotton markets. An important et-
feet on the trading is produced also
by the retirement of some of the
habitunl traders, whose plunginG oper-
atoms in the past have filed up the
measure OF stock market activity. Not
only are the individual operations OF
this class lacking in the present mar
ket, but there has been withdrnwu in
their wake any important following.
Disgust with heavy losses in the re-
cent severe declines or hopeessness of
an early substantial revival of gont,al
interest are severally advanced in en-
PLANTATION of these rctirements. There
seems to be an active prostra ton OF
general demand for securities in the
open market, and there Is almost as
striking an absence of any large sell
ing.
The influence on sentiment Of the
disfavor felt towards new capital
issues was showns in some individual
stocks. North American responded to
the days announcement of n sale of
notes, and General Electric and Atchi-
son, which were weak, are also distin-
Euished for the recent convertible
bond issues. The continued weakness
ofSChesapeake and Ohio is referable to
the belief .that a financial plan, in
volving new capital issues, is under
consideration.
Banking estimates agree that IA con-
siderable movement of currency from
the interior has taken place durinS the
week, sufficient with the proceeds of
tile subtreasury operations to yield a
cash gain to the banks of upwards OF
S3.o0o.0O0.
Bonds were heavy. Total sales. par
value. s1,412,o00. United States bonds
were unchanged on call.
Total sales to-day, $4,000 shares.
