New York Cotton.

New York, May 29.-Cotton opened barely steady at decline of IS points on May and from 4 to II points net lower on later months. Trading was active and the market seemed to be more or less excited owing to a re- newal of old crop liquidation and heavy selling of the new crop posi- tions. There was active covering around the opening and prices and fluctuations were more rless lrreg- ular. A report published by trade paper placed the condition of the crop at S0.5 and estimated an increase of AS per cent in acreage. New crop positions were relatively steady on buying by old crop sellers.
 May, 11.2Sc; June, 11.35c; July, ll.46c; August, 11.30c; September. 11.10c bid; October, 11.O5c; November, 1l.04c; December, 11.07c; January, 11.02c; February, 11.O1c bid; March, 1I10c.
 After showing net loss of about 12@19 points on old crop positions and of 5@6 points on later deliveries prices rallied or points and the market at midday was fairly steady few additional May and June mo- tces were issued and doubtless con- tributed to the early weakness.
 The market was less active during the early afternoon and prices ruled or points up from the lowest, with the new crop only or points under last nights closing figures as re- Suit of covering for over the holidays.
 Futures closed steady.

The Richmond Virginian. (Richmond, Va.) 1910-1920, 1913-02-16

George Washington was born in
Wetsmoreland county, Va, on Feb
ruary %, 1732. The house in which
he was born was on the Potomac.
but II Ia not there now, for a mon
ument stands in it's place.
His fathers name was Augustine
Washington, and his mothers. before
she was married, was Mary Ball.
George went to school to Mr.. Hob
by, and to his mother, for she was
his best teacher. He was eleven years
old when his father died, and after
ward he went to school to Mr.. Will
liams, where he learned how to sur
vey q little. When ne was young
man he went to see his brother Law
renee, who lived at Mt Vernon. There
he met an old man whose name was
Lord Fairfax. This old man had a
large estate, which George surveyed.
When he was older he was married
to Mrs. Martha Gusts. She was a
widow.
Governor Dinwtdffe sent washing
ton to tell the French that they were
not on their own land: that It was
English land, and they must move
away. They refused to go away, so
1t brought on war. 1t was a terrible
winter, but George went up along the
Ohio river. The English helped the
Americans fight the French and In
dams Washington fought very
bravely. Washington was a good
man and never told a story.
After the Revolution Washington
was elected president of the United
States. He was the president for
eight years, and was elected again.
but he would not accept 1t.
He lived two years after he served
as president, which time he spent at
Mt. Vernon.
He died with throat troable on De-
cember ID, 1899. He was a brave
kind hearted man. After his death
the people said: "He was first in
peace. first in war and first In the
hearts OF his countrymen."
All virginians are proud to say
that George Washington was Vir-
ginian.

George Washington

George Washington was born on
February %, Is32, at Bridges Creek,
Va. The plain way iN which Wash
ington was bred made him like plain
things all his days Outdoor life had
"a charm for him. From the first
George had a strong love for truth.
There was land near his home where
many fruit treeL s~ew. a tale Is tosd
that one day his father found deep
cut in one of his favorite trees. Then
the father said: who has done this? r.
George knew quite well that he had
done 1t with his small ak. When ne
saw how sad his father felt, he was
full of pain. He made UP his mind
to tell the truth. So he said: i can
not tell a lie. / did II.
George was very fond of books, and
he received his early education from
"a small school FIVE miles from home.
When but sixteen Washington went
to the home Of the Indians with rule
and found the length and breadth OF
the land. Washington did his work
30 well that at the end of five years.
he was at the head OF the FORCES OF me-
own State. In January. 1859, WASH
ington was married TO young widow,
Mrs. Martha GUSTS. They first lived
at New Kent, and then at Mount Yer
non.
The Revolutionary war broke out In
1175. AT Philadelphia May ~, Afto'
wise men chose Washington for com
mander OF all the troops.
On July 8, ITS. Washington took
command of the american army.
The war did not some to an end as
soon as the people thought 1t would,
In September, 1888, Treaty OF
Peace" was signed, In less than three
months from then, the British troops

A BRIEF SKETCH OF
WASHINGTONS LIFE
Composed by sAIIIE CLAIBORNE.

In, the year seventeen thtrty-twoe
George Washington. the great father
Of our country, was born, In West
moreland county. Va, on the 22nd of
February. His fathers name was
Augustine Washington and his moth
er's name, Mary Ball.
His father died when he was but
ten years old. His mother was "a
pious woman, and taught him many
things that did him good in after
years. He was fond of hunting. and
outdoor sport. 1t was once said he
threw n stone across the Rappahan-
mock river at Fredericksburg. He first
wanted to be sailor and his mother
consented, but when he came to bid
her goodbye she could not. He
changed his mind. and stayed home
to take care of her. Afterward he
was employed by Lord Halifax to do
some surveying. Although he was but
sixteen, he was in the war between
France and England, when he
proved TO be "a brave soldier.
Once when Washington had to take
long journey and was returning
home. his, guide shot, >at i him, but
missed him. Now he showed his
goodness, for he did not kill the man.
After the Revolutionary war. Corn
wallis surrendered to him. When Vir-
ginia had her rights, ana was freed
from England. then Washington set
tied quietly In his home at Mount YER
non, where he died at the age of sixty
seven.
I once read a piece of Washington
on conduct to his soldiers. 1t said
one cool day when he was walking
around the battlefield, he came upon
a little corporal making his men put
heavy log up on some breastworks
The corporal was not helping them,
and the men could not get ii up, so
Washington ran and helped them, and
soon the heavy log was in its place
Turning TO the corporal he said,
Why don't you help your men in
this hard work ?''
The little man looked surprised and
said. why, don't you see | am the
corporate" oh" said Washingt on,
II am the general. and he unbuttoned
his long overcoat showing his uni
form. You may imagine the little
mans feeling when he saw 1t was
George Washington who stoo be-
fore him.
