THE BOOK STALL

1t stands in a winding street.
A quiet and restful nook,
Apart from the endless beat
OF the noisy heart OF trade;
There's never a pot more cool
OF a hot midsummer day
BY the brink Of a forest pool.
Or the bank of a chrystal brook
In the naples breezy shade,
Than the bookstall old and gray.
Here are precious gems Of thought
That were Quarried. long ago,
Some in vellum bound. and wrought
With letters and lives Of gold:
Here are curious rows of calf
And perchance an ElZevir:
Here are countless mos OF chaf,
And a parchment folio,
Lik caves that are cracked with old
All puckered and brown and sere.
In every age and cline
Live the monarchs OF the brain
And the lords OF prose and rhyme,
Years after the long last sleep
Has come to the kings OF earth
And their names have passed away.
Rule on through death and birth,
And the thrones of their domain
Are found where the shades are deep
In the bookstall old and gray.

New Orleans Cotton Market

New Orleans. August 11.-Cotton fu- lures opened steady at an advance to 15 points. Cables were indifferent but the rumor that the English labor trou- bles were about to be settled was spread about on this side and stimulated buying, as also did the weather map which was again dry and clear with high tempera- lures in all portions of the cotton region The market was dull in the early trading and neither side displayed much if any aggressiveness. At the end of the first half hour of business, the list was 9 to b points up
 Reports of rain at one or two points in Texas stimulated short selling around the middle of the morning and with the bulls offering no support at all, prices commenced to sag. The official forecast predicted continued fair weather in both Texas and Oklahoma but this fell flat as a bullish feature. Late in the morning private messages from Liverpool said that it was rumored there that unless the English strike was settled by tomorrow a shipping lockout would be put in force Monday. This increased the selling and at noon prices were to points under yesterdays close
 In the afternoon session the market was quiet and quotations did not change much. At 2 o'clock prices were to 6 points under yesterdays closet
 The market closed steady at a net de- cline of 8 to 12 points.
