Building
New York, Aug. 1.-The cotton market made
very decided decline to-day. During the early
afternoon contract prices recorded a decline of
about e points rs compared with quotations ruling
on Monday last This decline caused not
only by weak technical conditions ruling the
market from overspeculaticn but also by the
growing belief that complete relief from drought
conditions over Texas would follow the lighter
rains reported recently.
The Official weather map has not recently in
dicated rain. but private dispatches showed that
showers were falling scattered areas Of North

MISSOURI ROAD WORK BEGINS
IMPROVEMENT OF CROSS-STATE
HIGHWAY STARTS EARLY.
Commissioners of Columbia Dlstrlct
Expect to Finish Their Share
Before Fall.

Columbia. Missouri-The first work
of the year on the cross-state nigh
way was started this week when the
commissioners of the Columbia spe-
cial road district began active I'M
proyement. Eight miles of the ROADS
in the district, which includes more
than 100 miles of highways, are on
the state highway. The Columbia
commissioners expect to have thelr
share of the work done by the END OF
summer.
The equipment with which work
started consists of nine mules, SIX
patent lever drags, u scrapers, TWO
graders and four wagons. Other
equipment is to be added immediate
ly. Gravel is to be used to surface
many of the roads.
At a special election last fall SlOo,-
600 was voted for the Improvement OF
the roads in the district. This money
is deposited in local banks and Is
drawing per cent interest. }. A.
Hudson, ]. L. Dodd and Frank 5.
Conley are the commissioners.
Curtis Hill, state highway engineer
SAYS that other figures which he is
now compiling for a bulletin prove
conclusively good roads and increase
in population always go together,
"In the 80 counties of Missouri
showing the greatest increase in popu-
lation," says Mr.. Hill, according to
the census last taken, there was an
increase in miles of good roads of "
per cent. OF the counties showing
a decrease of population for the same
period, the percentage of roads i'm
proved is only seven-tenthes of l per
cent"

GOOD ROADS MONEY SQUANOERED
Oklahoma Highway Engineer Takes
Action to Stop Expenditure of
$4,000 Fund Fooishly.

Oklahoma City, Ok.-The state high
way department took action to stop
the expenditure of $4,000 voted by
Big Hill township in Usage county for
good roads. Upon complaint of citi-
zens of the township, the state engi-
neer, w. R. Colt, investigated and
found that while only $14909 of the
bond issue had been paid out, con-
tracts aggregating $4,000 additional
had been approved. The engineer de-
clared that the work was being done
without definite plans and that nearly
the whole sum had been squandered
for "tin bridges" Seventeen super
visors drawing SO a day were en-
ployed. Their salaries alone, Colt
says, have amounted to $4,000. He
recommends an injunction to stop
further operations.

PARIS TAKES UP NEW COLORS
Jade and Malachite Green Are the
Latest to Find Favor in the Gay
French Capital.

While Paris has almost exhausted
it's favoritism for red, which has been
going on since last summer, it has
just begun its enthusiasm for jade
and malachite green.
Both of these are lovely, bold tones
that need yelling on a number Of
women. or otherwise they would be
washed out.
When they are used without veil
ing the upper part Of the bodice is
made of tulle in white or flesh pink, to
take the shade of the green from the
face; and when a woman cannot wear
the unrelieved tone it is yelled with a
dark shade of green tulle instead Of
black tulle.
On these gowns there is an oppor'
tunity to use many jade and mala-
chite stones as trimming and as orna'
ments.

EVIDENCE SHRUNK UNDER OATH
Topeka Preacher Who Told of "Forty'
Joints Could Recall But One on
Witness Stand. g,

Topeka, April 19.-Many of the
things the Rev. Robert Norris had in
mind when he told the state temper
ance union of 40 Topeka joints es-
capped him when he was invited to tell
the federal grand jury of his liquor
crusades. Norris recalled only one
"joint" where he had bought liquor.
It is said Norris was confronted
with a speech made last fall and by
newspaper interviews in which he said
40 ''joints' were operating wide open
in Topeka and that he had visited and
bought liquor in all of them.
With the assistance of evidence Of
direct sales, the federal officers usual
ly succeed in convincing the joint
keeper that he should buy a stamp,
but the Rev. Mr. Norris was unable to
give this evidence when it came down
to facts.
