SPECULATIVE MARKET.

Yesterdays developments in the
speculative market were summarized
in a New York dispatch Of last night,
as follows:
The cotton market today was irreg-
ular within a comparatively narrow
range, closing steady at a decline of
points on October, with other
months net unchanged to 2 points
higher. Sales were estimated at 1885,
900 bales.
The opening was steady at an ad-
vance of to points in response to
higher cables, but there was contin-
ued Southern selling of the late
months, presumably for hedging pur-
poses, while excellent weather and
reports of rapid progress with ginning
promoted realizing by recent Wall
street buyers. Prices eased off in
consequence but steadied a point or
two under closing figures of the pre-
vious day and during the subsequent
trading showed very little movement.
October was relatively weak under
selling by spot houses and offerings
which some thought were intended
to make a better December buying
basis A large part Of the trading
represented various switches or trades
by local professionals and the COM
mission house business which was a
feature of the markets Of the earlier
week was less in evidence. Exports
for the day were very heavy, more
than double the port receipts and the
spot markets were generally unchang-
ed.
Receipts at the ports 46,2O2 bales
against 54,696 last week and 42,215
last year. For the week 100000
bales against 34O,922 last week and
275,752 last year. Today's receipts at
New Orleans 1924 bales against 3,437
last year and at Houston 1929 bales
against 6,O23 last year.

STEAM FLOWING.

1t would be very easy to give names
IL necessary, which it Is not; but 1t is
fact all the same, that there are q
number Of progressive and well-to- dc
farmers in this county who are more
or less interested in the idea Of max
ing some experiments in the line OF
plowing by steam.
The reporter had a talk with one OF
these farmers a few days ago. The
gentleman in question did not say
one way or the other whether he
would be willing to have his name GO
out with his idea, and the reporter
would have no hesitation in mention
ing the name If he thought proper; but
inasmuch as there has been no definite
decision as to the experiment, it is Just
as we'll not to use the name.
II am thinking strongly Of making
an experiment with a mechanical pow
er plow," the farmer said. II have
eight good mules that are easily worth
81, 800 1 have literature descriptive of
power plow, the engine using gaso-
line, that can be bought for $4,000, or
little less, and which is guaranteed to
do more and better work in day than
can be done by twelve mules. They
have the cost of the power figured
down to something close to the keep
of twelve mules, and 1 don't see why
the thing won't work. 1 know that 1t
would be a novel experiment in this
country, but they are making a great
success of steam plows in the west
and northwest, and 1 do not see why
we cannot come it just as we'll"
There is really nothing wild about
the idea of steam plow in this coun-
try. AS has been stated, steam plows
are used in the west, and there Is no
good reason why they cannot be- used
as successfully in this country. 1t
would be rather risky for an inexperi-
enced farmer to invest in one without
thorough, previous investigation; but in
view of the cost and the novelty of such
an undertaking, this is not likely to
happen.

KILLED BY ACCIDENT.

Henry Smith, a negro man who has
been living on the plantation Of Miss
Libby Byers, about ten miles west OF
Yorkville, was found dead at the back
door Of her residence at about daylight
yesterday morning, and from such in
formation as could be developed by
Coroner Louthian and jury, his death
was very probably due to his own
carelessness.
Smith lived about 200 yards from the
big house" His business was to cut
wood, feed the stock and do other
turns, morning and night. He was a
very good worker; but most Of his leis-
ure was spent in hunting, and his CUR
and dogs were almost constant COM
panions.
A little negro, whose business it was
to make fires, awakened Miss Byers
and her nephew, Mr.. Byers Allison, yes
terday morning with the information
that Smith was lying dead at the back
steps Mr. Allison had been partially
awakened by a shot a short while be-
fore; but as shooting was a common
thing about the place, paid no attention
to it.
AS soon as the members of the fam
lily could dress, they went out to in
vestigate They found Smith lying
dead, as had been reported. His cloth
es were burning and they at once put
out the fire. There was a hole in his
right breast and his gun was leaning
up against the house, the butt resting
on one Of the steps.
One small negro stated that he had
seen Smith leave his house with his
gun and another who had gone into
Miss Byers' yard for bucket Of water
said that he had seen Smith cutting
wood Both said they heard the report
of the gun: but they had thought moth
ing of it and the subsequent finding
Of the body by the boy who was going
into the house to make a fire, was
matter Of accident.
During the inquest the coroner and
the jurymen found on one OF the steps
a mark that seemed to have been made
by the hammer of the gun. This, in
connection with other circumstances
seemed to suggest that when the acci-
dent happened the negro was making
an effort to lean his gun against the
steps preparatory to going into the
house. But that is matter OF specu-
latiOn, only.
The jury found that Smith came to
his death from the effect Of gunshot
wound inflicted by his own hand.

HoWE's GREAT LONDON SHOWS.
The Clowns Are Surprisingly Funny
Every Act a Feature.

Every Act Feature.
would be the last person in the world
you would pick out as a professional
jester. He is the soberest-appearing
cuss you ever saw on the street. Yet
he has but to walk from the dressing
top to the big show and you laugh.
There Is something about that stride
that Is funny, and when he allows the
toy balloon to get away from him and
sail through the air, crying after 1t,
the spectators almost fall off the seats
with laughter Now, you let some
one else try that same little clown
trick and it's not funny at all.
The clown today occupies an even
more exalted position with the circus
than he did thirty or forty years ago.
Years ago they didn't have the CO.
lossal acts such as travel with a show
Of the caliber of Howe's aggregation.
Then 1t was an easy matter to make,
or rather arrange, your programme
so that one act followed another with
out a wait. Nowadays with the big
acts 1t takes time to get the rigging
ready, and the clown must during
these temporary lulls amuse the spec
tators so that they will forget all
about the wait and watch and laugh.
The clowns Of Howe's Great Lon
don Shows were all specially engaged
for this branch Of the performance,
and it's the boast Of the management
that efforts In this direction have met
with a success beyond their expecta-
tions.
The big show will be here in York
Vile, Wednesday, October 21.
