Fame in Little Things

 It was q smile that made Giacon- da," the picture stolen from the Louvre, in Paris, famous. It was, perhaps. the most wonderful smile ever painted. but. still, it was smile. And a smile is d little thing.
 Little things have made people famous. CT, at any rate, they have helped in the process
 One can hardly imagine Napoleon, for instance, without the curious curl over his forehead, and his hand thrust into his vest. Neither can one conceive MT. Gladstone without his peculiar collar, the Kaiser minus his moustache. Mir Cham herlain devoid of nonocle and orchid, the Duchess of Gainsboroush without her nat, the Gibson girl without her peculiar walk and skirt, Sir Edward Clarke, K. C., without his famous Dundreary whiskers, MT. John Burns without his reefer suit, or Meredith. the famous footballer, with out toothpiclS on the field.

tive, however. Undoubtedly large crops caused selling for both accounts.
 The weather was unfavorable, as cons siderable rain fell and low temperatures were experienced nearly everywhere. Again a tropical storm thratened the gulf coast and at the week end was still cen- tral near the end of the Florida penin- sua.
 The chief bullish influence of the week was the improved spot demand Buyers found 1t difficult to buy spots in the in- terior on the same basis that prevailed at ports, and reports from many sections were to the effect that farmers were hold ing moro than at any other time this season. For this feature, however, the short side probably would have been able to bring about lower price level. In tie New Orleans spot market the de- mand was good, but factors sample tables were not well supplied
 New Orleans stock Is large compared with last year, but factors have instruc- lions to hold for higher prices on the bulk of cotton consigned to them. Prices this week lost 1-l5c, middling closing at 91ac, against 9 9-16c this week last year and 14S4c this week two years ago.

COTTON TRADE
 OPENS STEADY Market Was Not Much Af- fected By Weather
 Conditions

New York, October 2s.-Throughout most of the forenoon cotton exhibited continued steadiness, at times being point above the previous nights close on some positions from which final sharp reactions occurred under heavy realizing, so that the last prices of the day were 6 to points net lower with the tone barely steady.
 The market opened steady with prices from 1 point higher to points lower. Nothing in the cable news for the do- nestle weather situation occurred to af- feet sentiment very much one way or the other but there was enough interest taken in the reported increase of southern hold ing movement to check any aggressive bear pressure. It was estimated that the speculative short interests in the New York market is anywhere from 50o,0o0 to 100000 bales and the bears have been figuring on the south to supply them with all the cotton they need to close their shorts at about cents for January. There has been steady buying at this level for some time past so that the big short interest is being steadily reduced. Ihe south was ta1r seller on saturday but if the Texas holding movement ex- tends to the eastern belt there may be difficulty in covering In the remainder of this cotton. At the close of the week, however. with the China situation still acute the big shorts appeared to be con- fident in their position. Unsettled wealth CT with rather low temperatures prevailed in the western belt but the tropical storm which caused so much anxiety the pre- vious day appeared to have been side tracked somewhere in the Gulf of Mexi- co.
 Receipts at the ports today 65,ooo bales against G4, 404 last week and 67,5S4 last year. For the week 50o,00O against 500, f52 last week and 394300 last year. To- days receipts at New Orleans, 1o,9O9, against Ss27 last year and al Houston 15,- 403 against 12,S25 last year.

4 REACTION IN
 WHEAT MARKET
Trade Closes Steady With A Slight Advance
 in Prices

Chicago, October 28.-Reaction came today in the wheat market after an all week decline The drop in prices had finally stimulated flour sales and also started little business in cash wheat As a result the close was compara- lively steady at figures ranging from last nights level to 1S O hc above.
 Other grain, as well as hog products, made an advance all around; corn. is QAo; oats, 1s @ 3sc, and provisions 71a@12Ac.
 In decided contrast with Friday the volume of trade in wheat was not large, but the tone was materially i'm proved. There were signs that short selling had been overdone and not a few speculators ventured scalping profit on the long side over Sunday. The fact that the excitement and de- pression yesterday had brought about no corresponding effect in European markets made the bears cautious.
 Besides the, offers of less than a dollar bushel appeared to have stopped hauling from the farms in the southwest Liberal receipts northwest as well as the affairs of the Steel cor poration were gradually forgotten and despite an early setback the market wound up in favor of the bull side.
 During the session December fiuc- tuated between 97a4 @979sc and 9ssa c, closing $ c 1,c up net at 9Sas c 9S 3ac.
 In corn the fact that country sales were not large led to a good demand for futures, so that ground lost early was more than recovered.
 Primary receipts for the week ex- hibited a falling off compared with both last week and a year ago. De- cember ranged from 63sc to 63&4c, with tho close Q shade net higher at 63ssc.
 Cash grades were easy. No. yellow vas quoted at 74@7415c.
 Covering by shorts rallied oats. There was also considerable buying on rest ing orders. High and low prices touched for December were 471s q47h | c and 46%c, with last sales at 471sc, q net gain of lsc.
 Though dull, provisions ruled strong. Offerings were so limited that only moderate buying on the part of the pit shorts and commission houses was necessary to hoist prices.
 Most of the trade was in lard. At tho end of the session pork had risen 11ac. lard 10M 121sc and ribs 5Q714c, or q tenth of dollaA

Hubbard Bros. X Co.'S Letter

New York, October 2S.-lSpecIaI.l-- Foreign advices were rather disap- pointing, but the feature today has been the absence of the demand on the same scale about these prices that has been so prominent during the past fortnight. There were the usual reports of a storm somewhere In the gulf. with the pros spect of colder weather over the north ern and western portion of the cotton belt, but there was not the same num- Der of buyers. In this and in this alone the market differed In appearance from last week and the week previous.
 Scattered southern selling was in evidence, evidently hedges against spots Liverpool should lose points on Monday, depending upon the weather.

COrean Superstition

From the Japan Advertiser.
 Viscount Min Yunhni, living in Kyodong. North Ward, who was at one time vice president of the Oriental Development company, was recently taken i'll and grew worse day after day.
 He sent for an old woman reputed to be the best fortune teller In Corea for con- sultation, and was told that his malady was the result of some wicked spirits at tacking his body and soul. The old wom- an further told the afflicted Corean noble- man that in order to recover his health 1t was necessary to drive away the evil spirits by holding a religious ceremony on Wolmi Island, near Chemulpo. for three days, the ceremony to be conducted by F blind men.
 Niscount Min at once caused 12 blind men to be collected, and led by the old female fortune teller these men went down to Chemulpo some days ago. They then proceeded to Wolmi Island, where they prayed to the gods for three days and nights by beating drnms and other wise making great noise.
 The Chosen Shimbun does not tell rs the effect Of their prayers, but let IS nope that Viscount Min is now quite we'll
