A Woman's Sacrifices.

Three years ago startling tale came
to light concerning a prominent husi-
ness man In Austria. he found him.
self on the brink of ruin. and his wife
came to his rescue at the cost OF her
own life. Leaving an overheated room
one night, she walked up and down
stone tagged passage. barefoot and
with nothing on bat q nightdress. till
she caught a chill which she aggravat-
ed by a series Of reckless acts In
hammation of the lungs set In, and she
died shortly afterward. Her husband
obtained the large sum Of money for
which her life was insured, and with
this he was able to pull through the
crisis successfully. He married for
second time within three months of his
6rst wife's death This husband did
not get OF scot free. however. A serv-
ant in his employ had overheard the
conversation in which the heroic
young wife had told her husband her
intention to die for his sake. The serv-
ant informed the police. Then the in
surance companies contended it was
case of suicide and sued successfully
for the return Of the money. The bus
band was prosecuted for being an ac-
cessory to his wife's death and re-
ceived the punishment he well merited.

The greatest dog town In Great
Britain, if not in the world. is Haver-
fordwest There are a great many
men in the town who live wholly and
make good living by breeding. buy
ing and selling dogs. Although the
population is only 5000. at least 5000
dog licenses are issued annually, and
there are also a large number of ex-
emptions. Almost daily there are
more dogs than people in the public
streets. though valuable animals are
never allowed to run loose. Haver-
fordwest dog breeders are known for
their working terriers. show terriers,
pointers. settlers and spaniels, which
are daily traded for big sums through
the fanciers' journals and go every
where. 1t is the home of the Sealy-
ham breed of terriers. 1.-The origin Of
which has puzzled the keenest sports
men. One fancier's kennel recently
sold by auction realized f200. but ESQ
is not an unusual price for a single
dog. while EGO. f70 and ESQ are almost
common. The quaint old town, with

New Orleans Futures.

New Orleans, March 28.-Cotton futures
opened steady at an advance Of TO 3
points, Gables were about as expected
and the weather map was called unfav-
orable as it indicated cold weather and
much frost in the cotton belt In the
early trading the list was put to B
points over Yesterdays close on buying
by shorts who were nervous over ofhcia
reports of frost at Shreveport wheri
young cotton is already up and killinE
frost at jackson, where germina ton has
already started. On the rise longs in
the old crop months let go freely and
caused a sag of points. The new
crops were 4 to 5 points under last
nights close, while the new crops were
3 to points over.
More or less selling pressure on the
old crop deliveries was in evidence all
the morning and II held the. market
down in the face of reports of damage by
frost in the interior. Trading was mainly
for professional account outsiders APP
parently being unable to get a settled
opinion Of the situation. Rumors of the
formation of new bear plot based on
the good outlook for the new crop les
sened bulIish sentiment. Ring scalpers
were cool sellers and seemed to prefer
to operate in July more than any other
month. At noon the old crops were to
5 points under yesterdays close, while
the new were points over.

COTTON MARKET
CLOSES WEAK
Nv Associated Press.

New York. March 28.-The cotton mar
ket improved steady at an advance OF L
@6 points owing to better cables than
expected, but weakened under renewal
of yesterdays selling movement and at
the end OF the first half-hour, sold into
new low ground, with May touching IA. 70
and July 1905 or about points under
the closing figures of last night.
Covering and a renewal of bull sup
port checked the decline around this
level and caused a rally to about last
nights closing figures, but the tone of
the market showed little Improvement
fluctuations being nervous and irregular
during the middle of the morning.
A renewal of general liquidation and
increased pressure from local bears
caused weakness during the late fore
noon and sent prices off a net loss of 7QS
points on the old crop months. The new
crop continued relatively steady, holding
well up as to the closing figures of last
night.
Spot closed quiet, points lower; mid
ding uplands. 1875; middling gulf. 1850.
Sales, 1920 bales.
The market showed continued weakness
during the early afternoon and while
slight rallies occurred from the lowest.
there seemed little demand aside from
profit taking by shorts and old crop
months ruled some to points under
the closing figures of yesteday.
