Labor Is Worth Its Hire.

The remuneration which our distn- gushed ex-First Citizen is to receive for his articles on African conditions is stat ed to be at the rate of $1 a word. To those unfamiliar with the requirements of the undertaking this appears to be an enormous rate of compensation, and per haps it for words like "it," me q, 'is," was" has" 'been," and" sure" But it has always been pecu- liarty of the distinguished Nimrod in question that such insignificant, not to say commonplace, words as these have been merely incidental to the larger con cepts of his mind, and that, as matter of fact. his literary lucubrations have scintllated with more intrinsically valu- able specimens of our English termin- ology No editor worthy of the title would object to paying from 50 cents to $1 apiece for such ringing and unusual words meticulous, malevolent, artlcu- late, or invertebrate. This being so, why is 1t to be wondered at that a series of articles requiring the abundant, not to say redundant use of such arduously spelled terms as macropus uaiabatus mammalia africana, uptonia sinclaireses, sima satyrus, sinilia smillbus, semno- pithecus larvatus, or orycteropus caden- sis. should be paid for at such a hlSh rate? We could not ourselves afford the time to write such words as cynocepha- Jus or rnegalomania oyster bariensis for less than s2.5o apiece, and so we do not think, after all, that, considering an author hos been President of the United States almost twice. he Is overpaid If he averages s1 a word for using language ranging all the way from hippotraginae down to the first personal pronoun. or vice versa

New Orleans, May 1.-Spot cotton quiet, unchanged middling, 10Ac. Sales on the spot. 15O bales, to arrive, 200.
 Futures opened steady at an advance of to points in sympathy with an ex- pected advance in Liverpool. News of huge tenders in the latter market had no more effect here than they had there. Weekend statistics were bearish, espe- cially those relating to mill takings, but they were also passed by without notice, the trade centering it's attention on the weather which was unfavorable in the extreme. Rain. hail. frost and tornadoes were reported over the cotton belt. making it the worst 1st of May on record, so far as the new crop is concerned. On the strength derived from this source, bulls tried to take profits on a big scale with the result that prices gradually sank from the opening high levels to net decline of to 6 points. The closing was steady at net decline of to points.
 Spots advanced 1-16c for the week, mid ding closing at 10i4c. against 10 3-16c q week ago. Sales on the spot totaled 775o bales. against 6600 last week. Sales to arrive amounted to 2225 bales. against 715a last week.

WHEAT ADVANCES
 ON BAD WEATHER Strength Is Shown Early and
 Holds Up Well CLOSING TONE IS FIRM Sharp Advance Is Made in Corn, Due To Cold Weather and Lack of supply-oats and Provisions
 Also Close Firm.
CLOSING TONE IS FIRM

Chicago, May l-Wintry weather west and northwest was the chief reason for a further advance in wheat prices today. The market closed at net gains of Ac to 17sQ2c. compared with yesterdays final quotations. Corn, oats and provisions also closed firm.
 Wheat exhibited greater strength early in the session, the market losing much of its buoyancy during the last half of the day owing to profit-taldng based to some extent on official prediction of slowly ris- ing temperatures in the spring wheat country At the start prices were Ac to 1Ac higher than the previous close, the May delivery showing the greatest strength despite deliveries of 2.100,0O0 bushels of cash grain. Opening quota tions on May were 1.241h to $1.24% and on July $1.1M to SLIPS. During the first half hour May advanced to $1.25& and July to $1.12&. Reports from the northwest in- dicated heavy snowfalls over a large sec ton with blizzard raging in the Da- kotas, but the weather bureau forecast was for more spring-like weather tomor- row. This official forecast brought out sufficient selling late in the session to cause an easier feeling. The desire of many traders to even up operations over Sunday also exerted a depressing effect. July at the low point sold at $1.11ss. The market. however, reacted from the bot tom and closed at Sl.2524 for May and July at s1.12, tone firm.
 Unfavorable weather for farm work and the total absence of any deliveries on May contracts caused a sharp advance in corn prices, but part of the grain was lost later in the day on proflt-taking at the close were l4o to sso higher than yesterdays final quotations. May at nssc and July at 6S9sc.
 Oats were decidedly strong during the day owing to the unfavorable weather conditions but reacted somewhat later in the session in sympathy with other grain. There were deliveries of 65O.0o0 bushels on May contracts, most of which went into strong hands. Prices at the close were ss@1ao to ss9&c higher. with May at 569s sQ561zc and July at 497sc.
 Provisions were firm on buying by west ern packers and local shorts. The month ly statement of stocks In store was said to be bullish. At the close prices were un- changed to 5Q711o higher.

He was guest at a well known hotel where everything pleased him except the absence of the very torrid sauces and spices to which he had become accustomed in the far east. Fortunately he had brought with him supply of his favorite condiments, and by arranging with the head waiter these were placed on his table. One day another guest saw the appetizing bottle on his neighbor 8 ta ble and asked the waiter to give him some of that sauce.'
 ''Tm sorry, sir said the waiter, but it is the private property of this gentle man. The minister, however, overheard the others request, and told the waiter to pass the bottle.

Selling Orders Are Numerous But Declines Are Small
SOME STOCKS GO HIGHER
Pennsylvania and Canadian Pacific Make Advances, While Several of the lndustrials Are in Good
 Demand at Better Prices.
By T. c. sHoTWELL.

New York. May 1.-Pennsylvania, Vest ern Union. Erie and Canadian Pacific led in the trading Of Wall street today. Wire service from the west was improved and selling orders were more numerous. The west persists in selling stocks to such an extent that some of the Wall street traders are beginning to look for a reaction, especially as one nearly all ways comes in May. There is fear that the storms of the last few days have interrupted planting. These fears are without serious foundation but they are enough to cause some heavy liquidation on the part of Wall streets farmers.
 Western Union enjoyed a rise due to the general purpose of the big bankers of bringing the Gould shares into favorable prominence. An announcement regard ing Missouri Pacific bonds may be ex- pected any time.
 Pennsylvania's rise was due to the good report of earnings for March. Canadian Pacific rose because of the large num- her of farmers crossing into Canada for the spring planting which promises to break all records. In addition the float ing supply of Canadian Pacific has been well cleaned up and there are no tariH terrors in Canada this year.
 Corn products was a favorite in the in- dustrial group and Steel was in persistent demand. Silver metal had slight reac- ton.
 Although the leading bankers insist that a bull market is in progress they admit the possibility of reaction-a reaction only. -o.
 Number of shares sold today 269ozl. against AT, ,251 year ago. Par value or bonds sold today, $S,5O3,OO0, against S2,ll1- GOO year ago.
 Laclede Gas was turned over to the American Light and Traction company by the North American company at 95lsc, which will net the vendors about $h0OOoOo. Payment is taken partly in cash and part ly in stocks of the purchasing company.
 Pennsylvania directors declared the reg ular dividend on their stock. The num- Der of shareholders on March was 57,957
 President Maben of the Sloss-Sheffieid Steel and Iron company says that pay ment of at least 1A per cent will be made on the common stock for the next quarter He says the earnings for March are at the rate of 10 per cent on the stock.
