Undisturbed Ferairinity.

Women may be catty in little
things, yet they have osa.dlike trust
in each others honesty" said the
man. IF they hadn't they could
never have sat serenely through the
situation that faced several of them
the other night at the opera. l had a
balcony seat Beside me sat woman
who discovered, at the end of the
first act, that she had lost her purse.
She thought it had slipped to the seat
in front. The woman occupying that
seat stood up, shook her wraps and
looked under the seat, but couldn t
find the purse.
"'Still, it may be here some place,
she said My own bag has slipped
down to the seat in front of me. I'll
get it when the opera is over.
Then other women began to hunt
for handbags and purses that had
fallen. Some found them, others
didn't. But nobody seemed to
mind. They had perfect faith that
the things would turn UP later and
settled back TRANQUILITY for the second
act. Imagine lot of men letting
their purses lie around like that

ticable write making reservations,
stating class of. room desired and

Youthful Teachers Bravery.

The brave action Of girl teacher
was publicly noticed at a recent meet
Ing of Scarborough (Eng) town coun-
Gil Miss Smith was in a room with a
class of 40 children, none over five
years CT age. One boy had in his
pocket some Bengal lights. Suddenly
his clothes burst into flames. Miss
Smith at once called the children to
order to prevent panic and then seiz-
ing hold of the screaming child
wrapped him in her dress and put
out the flames with her hands. But
for her presence of mind the child
would undoubtedly have lost his life.
Then she ran with the child to its
mother and collapsed. Her hands and
arms were badly blistered and her
dress AXv3t, but the child was saved.

TAMMANY'S ORATOR TO QUIT
Universally Popular Senator Grady
Will Be Missed If He Sticks to
Announced intention.

Vague interest was aroused by Sen
ator Grady's recent announcement
that he would retire from the state
senate at the expiration of his pres
ent term, says the New York CORE
spondent of the Cincinnati Times-Star.
1t isn't that the bell orator of Tam
many is no longer interesting to his
public that his friends refuse to
mourn-but because Grady has the
retiring habit. Every now and then
something turns up to pout him, and
he forthwith announces that he'll
never run again. But he always
does.
Grady is the best orator of Tam
many. There was day when Bourke
Cochran was bit better, but Cock
ran wabbled so in his political orbit
that Tammany lost faith in him.
More people will go to-day to hear
Cochran than to hear Grady-but few
er Tammany men. Cochran gives the
better show, but Grady stays put.
Perhaps Grady isn't as eloquent as
Cochran, but he can call more names.
When he rises in the senate aisle and
begins to walk slowly toward the ros-
trum, shaking his finger at his enemy
of the moment the loafers hurry in
from the lobby He may not be right
but he has few equals in the mat
ter of faying an opponent. His con-
vivial habits have long been byword
here, but, oddly enough. he made his
first mark as a public speaker by
abusing the Demon Rum in his social
club. That was years ago. when he
was fat, round-headed red-faced
boy 1t is related OF him that on one
occasion he won silver medal for
utterly upsetting the argument of a
speaker who favored moderate drink
ing. in the weekly debate That night
clergyman found Grady singing too
ro-ore-lay at the head of a bunch of
obviously soused young debaters
All. Tommy. Tommy" said the
clergyman. what has become of the
principles you advocated in the club
this very night?"
Father" said Grady, shutting one
eye to locate his interlocutor, I'm a
fair man; and afther thinking ut
over, I'm bound to say that me oppo-
nent's arguments convinced me was
wrong"

COTTON BUYING
STOPS DECLINE
OPENING WAS BARELY STEADY,
BUT 1T WAS FOLLOWED BY A BUY.
ING WHICH DROVE PRICES RAPID.
LY UPWARDS.
By Associated Press,

New Orleans, Oct. 4.-The cotton mar
ket opened barely steady at a decline of
3 to IL points. English futures were
lower than due and private cablegrams
from both Liverpool and Manchester ex-
pressed fear of a protracted period Of in
activity among cotton mills as the result
OF the dispute between master spinners
and their operatives. The weather map
was favora bic, as it showed good rains in
Texas and in the central portion Of the
cotton belt, where drouth has been COM
planned of. Temperatures were high and
bears sold freely on what they said were
ideal conditions for keeping the crop
growing and making. At the end of the
first half hour Of trading prices were 10
to IL points under yesterdays close.
The early decline was followed by a
large buying movement in which spinners,
spot firms and speculative interests, both
professional and outside, took part. Local
spot firms admitted that spinners were
calling large quantities of cotton and the
spot market had a f1rmer tone with SELL
ers asking higher prices and buyers pay
ing advances on the moderate purchases
they made. Bears made no attempt to
contest the advance, although the news
of the early hours made 1t look for a
while as If they would be put in tempo
rary possession of the market. Bulish
traders and brokers said that the rise
was due almost wholly to the growing
belief in a short crop. They stated that
there was nothing in the immediate situa-
ton to cause large operations for rise
In prices. At noon the market was steady,
q to rs points UP from the lowest and
II to II points over yesterdays close.

ACTIVE
ON BUYING SIDE
REALIZING HEAVY IN NEW YORK
MARKET, BUT BULLlSH SENTI-
MENT STEADiED THE MARKET,
WHICH ADVANCED DURING DAY.
By Associated Press.

New York, Oct. 4.-The cotton market
opened steady at an advance of points
to a decline Of points and ruled very
nervous and irregular during the early
trading Cables were little disappOint-
ing and private advices said that the
labor disputes in Lancashire were still
unsettled, features which tended to in
crease the disposition to take profits on
long cotton, but while realizing was very
heavy and there was considerable local
selling for reaction there was suff1-
Client buying to indicate a very strong
market during the middle of the morning
was only 2 to points net lower.
The steadiness of the market under the
heavy early offerings inspired fresh con-
f1dence on the bull side and late in the
forenoon business became active while
prices advanced to a new high level for
the season as a result Of renewal of bull
support, covering and private cables re-
porting more hopeful turn in the Ian
canshire labor dispute. Prices at mid
day were 20 to "a points net higher with
the market more excited than at any
time since the publication of the govern
ment crop report yesterday.
After the midday advance. which
brought prices % to 20 points net higher,
realizing became very heavy, causing re-
actions, and trading became little less
active. The market. however, still showed
net gain of to IA points and there
was a good demand at the decline.
Spot closed quiet, 20 points higher; mid
