Something of a mystery exists in
regard to the finding of the door of
b. e. Folsom's store in the Opera
House block unfastened early Mon
day morning The officer who tried the
door at Il O'Clock reported it securely
locked, while the officer who tried the
door at 4 A. NJ, found it unlocked.
Thus far Mr.. Folsom has not found
anything missing from the store and is
inclined to think that perhaps the
door was not securely locked in the
first place. The officers believe that
someone may have entered the door
with the aid of skeleton key and
been frightened away, without secur-
ing anything, before the door was tried

bilities for the practical application of
art principles to everyday use.

The first harbinger of spring was
reported, Monday. A wager was
placed in local barber shop that the
ice in Lake Cobbosseecontee would
go out on April %. 1t went out last
year, just a week later than that.
April %. The ice is not quite as thick
this year as last and this may have
been the bettor's reason for laying
the wager that he did The ice for the
most part is a little less than two
feet thick. That it has not frozen any
thicker is accounted for from the fact
that the heavy SHOWS have acted as
a blanket for in places where the ice
has been scraped free of the snow it
averages considerably over two feet.

COTTON DEVELOPS MORE ACTIVE TONE
Prices on Most Deliveries Selling Into New High
 GrOund-ClOse Firm

New York February 1.-The cotton mar
 ket developed a decidedly more active and firmer tone today with prices on most de-
 liveries selling into new high ground for
 the period since the low records were established last December. The cose was
 firm at a net advance of IA to 16 points.
 Reports of a continue active spot de-
 mand in the south and of firm interior spot markets seemed to be rendering re-
 cent sellers very uneasy and there was heavy covering on the advance.
 The market opened steady at an advance of SdS6 points In response to better Liver pool cables than looked for. At first trad ig was comparatively quiet and while the
 tone of the market was steady it looked as though there was to be another day of
 inactivity and hesitation. By the end Of
 the first hour, however, trading became
 more active on numerous reports from the south indicating that while January com mitments may have been filed there was a continued active demand both from for
 eign and domestic sources and with big
 trade interests good buyers here prices
 worked rapidly higher.
 A few stop orders were uncovered on a
 net advance of 1s to II points and after
 their execution slight recessions occurred
 from the best but the continued bullish- ness of the southern news, combined with the more favorable reports from the do-
 nestle dry goods trade and better view
 of the New England labor situation' in- spired buying on every little dip and the market reached the best point of the day
 in the late trading when active months sold 16 to 19 points net higher and October
 contracts touched 1o4 or the highest ieTe
 reached so far this year.
 The close was only a point or two OH 1 from the best on the active positions un-
 der realizing. Private cables attributina | the advance in Liverpool to a continued good trade demand seemed to color the
 bulIish private reports received here from | the south and no doubt contributed to the | upward movement locally. There were rumors that large southern and local short | interests who had been impressed by the reports of an active spot demand were active buyers on the advance. failure | in New Orleans was regarded as or nc | particular significance in the local market Receipts today 664Sl. against 5l,os7 last week and 20.330 last year.

were heavy buyers of both contracts and
 the actual cotton. This made shorts ner-
 vous and stimulated buying for long ac- count.
 The weather map was again very favor able, dry, clear and moderately cold
 V eather being shown in the cotton belt. The bears were not able to take ad- vantage of this, and at the end of the first
 half hour of business prices were 9 to 10 points over yesterday.
 Futures were very steady throughout
 the morning. Longs took profits freely
 but this was offset by fresh buying for long account in the west and heavy short
 covering. It was rumored that the Eng fish strike had been settled, and the trade bought on this report without waiting for confirmation of the 39,00O bales bought in | Arkansas yesterday. One of the most noted spot buyers was quoted as predict l ing 12c for cotton. The continued rise in silver was looked upon a most fav- | orable thing for the export cloth trade, | both in this country and in England Prices rose until the near months were | 17 to IS points up, and october was l6 points ip itself. Before the second call | the market was quiet and steady at a net | advance of 1a to 16 points.
 Futures in the afternoon were influenced | by the advance in spots. A half hour be- | fore the close the trading months were I % to 26 points over yesterday.
