New Orleans COttOn

New Orleans, Aug. 2S.-Cotton- Futures opened steady at decline of 4@5 points on poor cables and what was called a favorable weather map. The weather over the belt was clear and dry, conditions that were con- sidered favorable except in portions of Texas and Oklahoma. Soon after the call prices were 6M7 points un- der yesterdays close. Scalping shorts took profits and ring traders took the long side fer turn, with the result that at the end of the first hour of business prices were un- charged to point up compared with yesterdays final figures.
 Fixtures opened steady. August, 11.16c nominal; September, 10.94M 10.94c; October, 10.93c bid; December 10.97@1G.9Sc; January, lie asked; March, 11.13c bid; May, il 23c.
 Reports of heavy offerings of spot COlClH III lCAdS duu CldluIo CildL luGy were being met by only a moderate demand served to give the market an easy tone around the middle of the morning. Short selling was stimu- lated to some extent, but orders re- ceived around the ring were only for small amounts. The market be- came nervous, with narrow fucta- tions and no definite tendency.
 At noon the tone was dull and prices of the trading months were 5@7 points under yesterdays last quotations.
 In the afternoon the market stead- jed up again. At o'clock the trad ing months were 2@3 points over yesterdays last prices.

DR. SIMMONS BUYS. BANK BUILDING Pine Bluffian Closes Deal in Memphis Paying
 Out $450,0OO
WILL REMODEL IT
Has Conference With Architect and May Decide to Erect Big
 Office Building.

Memphis, Tenn, Aug. 2S.-Dr. J. F. Simmons, physician, banker and plan- ter of Pine Bluff, Ark, is the new owner of the State National Bank building.
 Negotiations practically closed yes terday will within the next few days means the transfer of the valuable uptown corner from S. E. Ragland to Dr. Simmons, it is said.
 That the latest sale means either a complete remodeling of the pres . ent building or the erection of a new office structure, was the statement last night of one of the persons inter- ested i'll the deal.
 The consideration involved in the transfer of the bank building from MT. Ragland to Dr. Simmons has not been made public.
 It is known, however, that the price was between $425,ooo and $450,00O.
 The property was formerly owned by the State National Bank. When that institution consolidated with the Central Bank and Trust Company, the < building was taken over as a part of the realty holdings of the newly form- ed Central-State Bank and Trust Com pany.
 It was placed on the market, and after several false alarms, in which all sorts and kinds of buildings were erected on the site by the rumor- makers, MT. Rag1and obtained an op- ton. He is said to have exercised this option to the tune of $425,o00.
 Dr. Simmons became interested in the deal early. He was represented by Hurley, Frazer and 4Naill. None of the members of that firm would { talk last night. but. it was learned { that Dr. Simmons had spent several 5. days in, Memphis this week and had ! signed contract to purchase the building ssss4ssss'se r That contract was not denied by Mr. Ragland. who said that the chances were that Dr. Simmons would close the sale shortly.
 Dr. Simmons is one of the wealth fest men in his section of Arkansas He owns a great part of the propert! on Main street in Pine Bluff, organ ized and is still large owner of tht Simmons National Bank, owns twt large plantations and is reputed to b' of large wealth otherwise.
 When in Memphis last week he con yultel an architect and asked that h' go over the present building with view of recommending change tha would put it on a more profitable basis. Whether this means remodel ing or new structure is indefinite it is said.

EYES Get the First Attention.

There is no such disguise as that Of
the eyes. If we want to get an i'm
preston of persons face we have to
look at the eyes. You will find this
in any railway carriage or public con-
veyance. You are interested in q
face; you fix your eyes on the opposite
eyes If the eyes meet both fall; the
eyes drop apologetically, for the in
quiry is too intimate. The two people
know well enough, though neither may
be an artist, that you cannot get an i'm
preston of the face by looking at the
chin or the forehead or the nose. You
must look straight at the eyes-the
window of the soul-and the face be-
comes a recognizable unit. The best
disguise. as burglars and grownup chill
dren know, is the mask that covers the
eyes only.-London Standard.

join him in sowing money, promising
large. crop Of rubles. Having first
sown comparatively small amount,
they got back each morning their cap

delight of the farmer. Then they SOW
ed big sum and got back-nothing.
The farmer began to blame the gypsy
for advising him to SOW money. The
