Soar Early

New York. June 2a.-The cotton mar.

The close was steady at a decline Of
to points on active positions, in re-

There was scattering liquidation or
realization by buyers here. Reports of

uneasiness however and with the mar

Aside from the operations of bullish

Lincoln's Great Memory

rom the YOUTHS Companion.
Judge Lands OF the Northern district
court OF Illinois Is fond of telling this
anecdote of Lincoln.
In 1894. when Lincoln was a candi-
date for the Legislature. lie called on a
certain farmer TO ask for his support.
He found him in the hay field and
was urging his cause when the dinner
bell sounded. The farmer invited him
to dinner, but he declined politely, and
added:
III you will let me have the scythe
while you are gone | Will NOW round
the field couple OF times"
When the farmer returned he found
three rows neatly moved. The scythe
lay against the gate post but Lin
coin had disap peared
Nearly 80 years afterward the farmer
and his wife, now grown old, were at a
White House reception. and stood walt :
ing in line TO shake hands with the
President
when they got near him in the line. .
says Judge lands. Lincoln saw them.
and, calling an aide. told him to tax g
them to one of the small parlors, where
he would see them as soon as he got
through the handshalSing. Much sur
prised. the old couple were led away.
Presently Mr. Lincoln came In and,
greeting them with an outstretched
hand and warm smile, called them by
name

all these years.

and he went TO recall the day he
had moved round the farmers timothy

- Yes. that's So said the old man
stili IN astonishment. I found the field
moved and the scythe leaning up
against tho gate post But / have al

President. what you did with the whet-
stone?
Lincoln smoothed his hair back

thought; then his face lighted mp.

Trading Loses None of Its
Dizziness and Narrow

New York, June 2s.-Beyond another
meteoric rise in American Tobacco and
pronounced strength in some of its for

lost none of its dizziness and narrow limi-
fations.
The better known securities fell frac-
tionally, with weakness in American Can,
but the general list was firm with de-
gree of activity at better prices in the
shares sof some of the Independent steel
concerns.
Canadian Pacific reported net gain of
$4,000 for May. and Boston and Maine
gained $4,000 but the Reading exhibit

From tile Hartford courant.
MIR. X. A. Scott-James has an article In
the English Review ON what he calls the
crisis in London journalism.
Hes convinced that the yellow news
paper was inevitable; having established
itself In New York. its Invasion OF Lon
don was oniy. "A question of time. The
Harmsworths did no more than quicken
the blood OF the SLOW pulsed Engiishmen
with haIfpenny patent medicine in
vented In America and uproariousy adj
yertised in England
He thinks the yellow newspaper OF Lon
don * growing perceptibiy less yellow
growing soberer and broader and~ more
accurate. He makes the surprising state
ment that nearly half the London daiies
are on a thoroughly unsound financial
baslse-that nearly half the newspaper
writer's of the city owe their bread and
butter 10 the fact that tile proprietors
are able and willing to lose money right
along.
He suggests that the semi-commer-
ciaiIzed. semi localized London dalies
should be getting awake to the fact that
it's not enough IN this present world to
he as harmless as doves. something Of
the Wisdom Of the serpent Is needed, too.

Proceeding TO review the rapid advances
Of democratic government throughout tho

lon that we could not, and should not,
expect the present unequal acoumulA-
