COTTON
New Orleans Cotton.

New Orleans, June 1.-Cotton fu- lures opened steady at an advance of 2W7 points. This initial rise was in the face of poor Liverpool, said in private dispatches to be due to selling by spot houses. Continued rains in the eastern cotton belt and some few reports of grassy fields stimulated buying for both accounts. Recent buyers took profits and offerings were chiefly from this source, but they were not heavy enough to affect prices,. At the end of the first half hour the trading months were 1oM13 points up.
 Cotton futures opened steady. June, 11.S9c, nominal; July, 11.91c; August, 11.74011. .73c; September, 115SM11 69c October, 11.56@11,51c; December, 101162c; January, 11.67M11.6Sc; March, 11.7oc bid.
 The market held steacy at the high est levels until around the middle of the morning Realizing by longs be- came heavy enough to weigh against prices. For a while the market sag ged but was very steady at the decline owing to the forecast of continued showers in the eastern half of the cot ton region. At the lowest the trading months were still 30t5 points over yesterdays close. Late in the morn ing the market strengthened again on fresh buying and at noon prices were S@9 points up.

Use of Eriqht CoIors.

Though gray is again to be in great favor, yet there are to be some lovely bright colors seen in dress this sea son, and our modistes are unlikely to forget that the success of all such bright colors lies in the moderation with which they are used.
 At sensational dress show last week the draped skirt and the bunch ed pannier were features of many of the models. and the modified color touch proved once more how telling it is. For instance, fawn colored, em. broidered tussore coat and skirt had a Chinese red collar, which gave it a cachet. From this exhibition we learn cd that black patent leather is again in favor for belts. and that oriental embroidery is in greater demand than over,

 vations.

Waists of real lace, notably those in Nense and Irish, are much seen. and Irish lace coats are being revived. Long handbags of these materials are much in evidence. being swung from long cords and carried with lingerie dresses.
 Nearly all of the latest lingerie dresses are of pure white. That is, they show practically no colored em- brcidery. The color is usually added in the garniture of girdle, sash, tunic, coat or princess slip.
 Cotton ratine is having a great pop ularity for misses suits, with crystal or ball ivory buttons for trimming. It is one of the new tube materials in de mand for shirtwaists.
 Lace trimmed and lace covered para sols are among the spring and summer novelties. Lace covered fans are also having a reign of popularity.
 There is new red shade. known as "primrose red" It originated in Paris. and seems to be combination of wine. fraise. grosielle and cerise shades It is claimed that the combined tints are more artistic than a distinct color.

 All the severely plain shapes are shown in great range of colors with black and white combinations in the lead. Plain sailors, Derbys and walk ing hats appear in cerise, pink, blue, lavender, purple. cherry, gold, and linen color Also an occasional light green. Combinations of black with cerise. or linen, or white, have proved much more popular than other com binations, but black and white is far and away the best choice.

Use of Black Ribbon.

Black ribbon jeWelry is the striking contribution to smartness made now by the designers of fashionable gew- gaws. The ribbon chosen is of the watered or moire kind, and in all cases is allied to precious stones.
 A watch for the wrist is fascinat- ing trife. The band is. composed Of ribbon and the watch is mounted in platinum set with diamonds, the com bination of black and white making very striking ornament for the wrist. Such a wrist watch is not heavy to wear nor overwhelming ir appear ance; indeed, quite the reverse.
