No Woman Great to Her Maid.

From Here and There in the January
Bohemian
If 1t is true that no man is a hero
to his valet, it is doubly true that no
woman is a heroine to her maid. If you
have any doubt about this, consult Miss
Jessie Millward the well known actress.
OF all earthly blessings Miss Millward
treasures among the greatest her maid,
Lottie, whom she has had for almost
sixteen years. "Lottie is a perfect treas
ure" says Miss Millward, but she seems
to have been sent by a benign provi-
dence to keep me meek and humble in
spirit. The other day the people next door
were making such a noise that / simply
couldn't stand it, and | am afraid that
l expressed myself somewhat forcibly.
oh dear, man, cried Lottie, let them
think you are a lady even If you are
an actress Last night | received proofs
of new photographs which / have just had
taken. Some of my friends were com
menting upon them. Finally l showed
them to Lottie. She looked long and earn
estly at them. DO you like them, Lottie?
L asked finally, Yes, indeed, man, she
answered. If l didn't know you, I'd think
you were pretty
THAT was rather bad, but even that
pales before what a friend of Lotties
said She was the maid of one of my
friends, and she came with a message.
swer she looked about the room, at the
mantel with its photographs and so on.
Are you an actress? she asked at length.
I sometimes think So, l replied. Well
she returned. L have always wanted to be
one, too. and, now since have seen you,
| think 1 will Oh, these maids of ours.
1t seems they won't allow us a grain of
vanity or pride.
when on my return this last time to
America, a host of my old friends sent
me notes ard flowers, and I was reading
them over. so delighted to think that
they had all remembered me, and happy
child over 1t, l turned to Lottie
and said, Isn't 1t splendid; isn't 1t beauti-
full, Lottiel l wonder why they are all
so kind? Perhaps replied Lottie, they
think you are fascinating looked up In
surprise. This was a new note from Lot
tie, and I could not afford to lose it.
And do you, Lottie?' I yentured tremu-
lousy. Ny castles fell. Good Lor', no,
MANI she replied. And the worst of it
all Isl concluded Miss Millward, "she is
the sweetest, most innocent looking crea-

H. G. B. Beers Cotton Letter to n.
Cothran, MANAGER.

New Orleans, February 20.-A further
recession was established today in early
morning but as it was not noted that
there was an Improvement in the demand
for spot cotton at the decline in the
south, Memphis and New Orleans doing
a large business in actual cotton, and
as the American exchanges will be closed
Friday and Saturday covering move
ment on the part of shorts was detected
and as a result, all of the early loss was
recovered. May contracts after selling low
as 1904 compared with yesterdays clos
ing of 1912, sold high as 1913 up
to p. M outside of these features and
the possibility of spinners takngs for
the week figuring bullish, there was moth
ing on the surface to warrant the late
advance, as other conditions were ia
vorable and receipts were relatively as
heavy as ever when compared with for
mer years. Arrivals thus far this week
at thirteen leading interior towns were
$4,000 against $1,000 last year and $1,000
year before last.
Receipts at all ports for the same period
were 1900 against $4,000 last year and
5000 year before last, and arrivals at all
ports for tomorrow point to about 10000
against $1,000 one year ago and 1000 il
1905. These comparatives indicate a
weeks insight of about 10000 against
100000 last week, 219,000 last year and
15G, 600 two years ago. However the time
is not far distant when arrivals of two
years ago began to pick up and continued
to increase until they assumed colossal
proportions for a summer movement.
Therefore, 1t is thought that the move
ment in the spring of this season will
be comparatively light when compared
with receipts during March, April and
May of 1905, and that the movement in
the summer in June, July and August.
will be very small when compared with
arrivals of two years ago to Europe have
passed the 100000 mark and they bid fair
to continue heavy for some while yet.

GOOD DEMAND AT DECLINE

New York, February 20--The cotton
market continued nervous during today's
trading with near months making new
low level during the early session, but
rallying later with the close steady at a
net decline of points to an advance of 3
points with most of the active months
showing a gain. Sales were estimated at
15O,o00 bales
The opening WAS at a decline of 10 /
points in response to lower cables and
large receipts, while there was continued
liquidation of the near months in antici-
patton of March notices on next Tuesday.
March sold at 902 on the call, May az
so and July at 9.S5, the lowest prices
reached so far this season, but there was
an active demand at the decline thought
to be against sales in the English mar
zet, and for the covering of recent sell
ers.
Prices consequently rallied during the
middle of the session, and in the after
noon some of the local scalpers took the
long side for a turn in the expectation OF
return of some scattering shorts in the
absence of any material pressure of long
cotton for the time being. This caused
the late rally in connection with rumors
that a large Broadway house was pre-
pairing to take up tenders on March con-
tracts Southern spot markets as officially
reported We're unchanged to 1-16 lower.
Private cables attributed the depression
in Liverpool to the continued big re-
celpts, but it was believed that Ameri-
can selling orders were a factor there.
