DICKENS CHARACTER ALIVE.
John Gaylord. of London, wn. the
Original for Joe Gargery.

Frrn the Strand Magazine
John Gaylord. the original OF Joe Gar

Iy human story. Great Expectations"
lives in Crompton Road. London.
II was at the smithy owned by Mr.
Prior. formerly locksmith and black
smith in Marchmont Street. Brunswick
Square. that Charles Dickens discovered
Joe Gargery." When the novelist re-
quired the services of a locksmith. John
Gaylord was always sent to him Indeed
II was well understood at the little forge
that Gaylord was the only man who
should do the jobs" at Tavistock House
Il saw a good deal of Mr.. Dickens at
Tavistock House. said Gaylord. He
used to watch me at my work and talk
to me by the hour He always seemed to
have plenty of locks that wanted seeing
10. and in those days / was smart at my
trade"
Now there came the story of a fight at
the forge. story which GAYLORD had
often related to Dickens. II was. as a
matter of fact the only fight In which
that mild. good-natured. sweet-temper-
ed. easy-going, foolish. dear fellow ever
INDUCED. and the story as given by him
bears a striking resemblance to that told
by the novelist In describing the fight
between Joe Gargery and the broad
shouldered, loose-limbed. swarthy' Or
lick.
1T was like this, sir said the old
man. and I will tell II to you Just as
I many times told it to Mr.. Dickens.
There was at the forge a journeyman
named Brooker. very disagreeabIe fel-
low. a man OF exceedingly bad quality
and treacherous temper One day we had
a few words. and he began TO boast Of
what he could do to me. He would knock
my head on and that sort Of thing At
last the men started to laugh. and said I
was afraid to stand my ground like a
man. Brooker. encouraged by this. struck
at me. but still would not fight. I told
the fellow that I was far too strong for
him. and that ! could give him a sound
thrashing. Upon this he dealt me a
heavy blow on the chest, and the men
called me a coward
The old smith paused for a moment,
and in the interval one could almost hear
the voice of Mrs. Joe reproaching her
husband for permitting Orlich to insult
her:
ITO hear the names he's giving me.
That Orlick! In my own housed Me, a

might to the ground. / did not strike
him. There was no need to do so. for
there he lay. afraid to move lest should

Every American hoy" said the old
fashioned orator, stands a chance of
being elected President
II know something that can beat that
hands down" said the young man with
the dentists outfit. Every American
man who studies dentistry has some
show OF pulling the teeth OF royalty.
That ambition rankles in my own bosom.
and have a speaking acquaintance with
several other bosoms in which 1t like
wise rankles.
We may all be disappointed. Count
ing even the least important Of duke
doms and principalities, there are not
enough royal rulers in the world to
give us all a job. But American dent
lists are so popular at foreign courts that
the position Is worth working for.
Ever since DR.. Evans became the
whole show at the court Of France the
demand for American dentists has grown
constantly. and now the teeth In royal
heads all the way from Norway to Abys-
sinia are treated by Americans. Their
advancement is an inspiring object lesson
for US beginners some of whom may one
day be tinkering with kingly molars."

COTTON MEN WANT
 THEIR OWN COMPRESS
Movement Started Ky Cotton Men of Little Rock to Build New Plant
 At Once.

Little Rock, July 16.-The cotton men of Little Rock desire compress owned by local capital. To this end a movement has been started by number of the leading cotton men of this city. The stock, it is said, will be subscribed by cotton shippers and factors. also merchants and farmers. In discussing the matter this morn ing one of the local cotton men who is behind the movement said:
 There is a we'll planned movement under way for the construction and operation of another large cotton compress and warehouse plant in the vicinity of Little Rock. This plant will be built by local capital, the stock will be subscribed for by cot ton shippers and factors, merchants and farmers. The plans contemplate that the plant will be ready for re- ceiving. storage, handling and com pressing cotton in the latter part of 'l:eptember and finally completed in early October.
 "A short time ago the Gulf Com press Company announced through it's management here its purpose to re- build it's plant in Argenta and this seemed to have satisfied the cotton trade.
 Tt is now said that the inactivity of the Gulf Compress Company in the rebuilding of it's plant destroyed by fire il March last is probably the cause of the movement. Those inter- ested in the new plant do not believe that it is to the best interest of the Little Rock cotton trade, nor to themselves, that the compress and warehouse business at this point should be placed in the hands of one company"

New York. Cotton.

New York, July 16.--A feeling that the crop in the Southwest is ill a very critical position, owing to a consider able period of dry, hot weather, seem ed to be making considerable inn pression on sentiment iii the cotton market this morning. This demand was rather more active and general than for some time past and after opening steady, at an advance of 3@6 points, the market sold about 6@9 points net higher on active manths. Liverpool was just about as due on the New York close of yesterday and private cables reported a better under tone on scattered buying inspired by fear of high temperatures :n Texas.

 The market continued steady late in the forenoon on foreign buying, cov- erlng and scattered demand from local bulls who were encouraged by the official forecasts for .ont.aued dry weather. Noon prices were about 5@a points net higher.
 Trading was less active during the early afternoon. Reports that the southwest was offering new crop cot ton for August shipment more freely and approximations of trouble in China, appeared to check fresh buying, but tnere was no important selling and prices held within or 4 points of the best.

New Orleans Cotton.

New Orleans, July 6.-Cotton-Fu- lures opened steady, 1 point down to
 2 points up. Cables were not as good
 as due and private messages from Liv-
 erpool, stated that disquieting news
 was coming from China in regard to
 the controversiy with Russia. These
 bearish features were balanced by con- tinued dry weather in the cotton reg
 ion, high temperatures in the South
 west and more boil weevil complaints, especially from Mississippi. The fore cast promised no change in weather conditions. Scattered buying was Il
 by very moderate offerings and at the prices were 3@6 points over yester- days close.

 The market had dya very steady tone through the morning in spite of many disauieting reportss concerning the Balkan and the Chinese situations, which grew more pessimistic ill tone as the morning grew older Their effect was offset by the drouthy con- ditions in the belt. Prices showed very small changes, at the highest standing 4@6 points over the last
 quotations of yesterday. At noon the
 trading months were 1@4 points over
