New Orleans Cotton Market.

New Orleans, September 2l-Cotton
spots were steady and &c lower; mid
ding, 8 Lice. Apprehension over the labor
situation in Lancashire and bad weather
which kept buyers out of the market
caused the decline in prices. Sales were
1925 bales on the spot and 1850 to arrive.
Cotton futures opened steady at a de-
cline with prices ID to 10 points under
Saturdays close. The Lancashire labor
situation was the dominating factor of
the day, forcing prices below the open
ing level for losses amounting to about
81 per bale. Considerable selling for
short interests were induced by the Lam
cashire troubles. Weather predictions
were not good but were not paid much
attention. The close was barely steady,
ID to 20 points under Saturday.

DRESSING THE CHRISTMAS TREE
An Occasion Of Great Joy for Both
Young and Old.

when the tree beams forth in all its
glory and splendor. There Is great
pleasure for the elders in dressing It
in its gayest raiment. II the full
beauty is to be brought out 1t should
be kept until night. It Is said that
10000 Christmas trees will be brought
into the American market Hemlock,
cedar. pine and spruce are all good
for the purpose. The base can be
covered with cotton batting sprinkled
with diamond dust, and every branch
may be laden down with the same arti-
fetal snow. Incandescent electric
lights are becoming more popular each
year as they are safer. However.
many prefer the twinkling Of the
candles. Colored balls and tinsel are
draped from every branch, and gayly
dressed dolls and toys of all sorts
sway In the air. Then there must be
cornucopias Of red and gold. filled with
candy. The largest presents and mys-
terious packages can be heaped around
the foot of the tree. Every package
should be wrapped In white paper and
tied with brilliant red ribbon. Many
dollars are spent each year for elab-
crate decorations, but many attractive
and effective ornaments may be made
at home. such as strings Of popcorn.
cranberries. gilded and silver nuts, ps;
per flowers, ETC., which all add to the
splendor Of the Christmas tree.
