Yesterdays Cotton Market.

New York, March 18.-The market
showed considerable strength today
with closing prices 10 to 13 points
net higher on old crop options and s
to 7 up on the new. Trading was of
moderate volume. The freer offerings
early in the session were we'll alb
sorbed by short and local traders and
an advance to 6 to II points was
scored. The market slipped off some
what under liquidation by the ring
crowd, but speedily recovered on buy
ing which was credited to the big
trade houses. Fears that the March
premium would be repeated in the
May option brought in a fair demand
from shorts in the latter month. There
was very little news from the south
regarding spots. Leading points were
quoted at unchanged prices. Market
has a steady undertone.
Following were the closing quota
tions today: January, 11.38@40;

Market Reports
Los Angeles Produce Market.

LUIS AUScIcS L net.
Los Angeles, March 19.-An enthu-
siastic meeting was held after the
call yesterday on the Los Angeles
produce exchange to boost Orange
Day, which occurs March 21. The
produce men, nearly all of them in
terested in the orange crops, said that
they would do all in their power to
make the day success, promising to
sell oranges at cost and to donate
many boxes to be thrown from auto
mobiles during the parade.
There were greatly increased re-
ceipts of strawberries yestrday on the
market and the highest price asked
for them was 10c boX-just half
what they were bringing a week ago.
Dealers who have surveyed the berry
fields in the surrounding country re-
port bumper crop and predict that
they will be very cheap at the height
of the season.
Asparagus is also rapidly becoming
plentiful and it will be within the
range of all pocketbooks in short
time. The north is still furnishing
most of the shipments sent here, but
Imperial contributes a large daily
amount. Fancy shipping quality green
peas sold for SIC pound yesterday
and others brought only around &c
pound. There are still few wax
beans from Imperial, but they are
so poor in quality that it is almost
impossible to move them.
Receipts of produce in Los Angeles
yesterday were: Eggs, 926 cases; hut
ter, 38,770 pounds; potatoes, 2,6O4
sacks; sweet potatoes, 224 sacks.
The following butter, egg and
cheese quotations are taken from
sales on the produce exchange. The
wholesale price of creamery extra but
ter is 4c above the exchange quotation
and that of eggs the price given under
the candled head.
Butter, per pound-Creamery ex-
tras, 81.
Eggs, per dozen-Case count, 20;

REPORT OF WORK
ON CANAL SYSTEM

ON CANAL SYSTEM
Engineer C. N. Perry has made to
the mutual water companies the fol-
lowing report on the work on the ca
nal below the line last week:
Order No. l.
---- Raising banks of Alamo river. This
work is nearing a close. By We'd
nesday night one of the three camps
will be pulled off, and by the first of
the month the other two camps should
have finished up all the work laid out.
Order No. q
East Side main. Still pending, but
an investigation shows this canal from
the East Side heading to Allison head
ing to be in such good condition that
it is doubtful if any work at this
time will be necessary.
Order No. 3.
Cleaning Alamitos. Completed.
Order No. 4.
Encina bank work above flume.
Completed.
Order No. 5.
Bypass gate at head of Wisteria.
Same remark as last report.
Order No. 4.
Stockton on West Side main, flume
to east line Packard tract. Stockton
No. / has made the past week $500
feet. The Stockton dredger No. 2 has
made during the past week 1.166 feet
with across section of 26X21s. Next
week the No. 1 will be transferred
to help out the No. 2. The water
in the Encina flume is now within six
inches of the top, which means that
no greater amount of water can be
put through it. This condition will
continue until channel is dredged
clear to this flume. The No. 2, un.
aided, will take about five weeks to
accomplish this result, and it has
seemed best, in spite of the extra
expense, to move the No. l to help
her out.
Order No. 7.
Structures, east line of Packard
tract. All of the structures included
within this order will probably be
completed by the end of this month.
The large check across the West Side
main will be finished the early part
of next week and the other structures
will follow.
Order No. 8.

The Bridal rousseau.

The old idea of providing brides
with score or more of gowns, wraps
and hats has quite gone by Even the
fashionable trousseau of today con-
tains no more than dozen gowns, If
as many. Styles change so fast that
by fall the gowns for the June we'd
ding, necessarily made some weeks be-
fore the ceremony, begin to look odd.
Some authority has declared that the
best dressed woman in Paris buys no
more than three new toilets each year,
but the opinion may be ventured that
she is altering her last years supply
most of the time. The vast assort-
ments of lingerie have also dwindled.

WILL BE EXPENDED WISELY
Statement Showing How the Proceeds
of Sale of Red Cross Seals
Are to Be Spent.

For the benefit of the numerous or
CARNATIONS who helped to sell near
ly forty-five million Red Cross seals
last year and for the general public,
the American Red Cross and the Ma
tional Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis have
framed definition of anti-tuberculo-
sis work showing how the proceeds
from these holiday stickers are to be
used. The definition limits the expen-
diture of money only for the year
ending April 80, 1915.
The definition was framed at re-
cent meeting of the National Associa-
ton for the Study and Prevention of
tuberculosis and states that the term
"anti-tuberculosis work" as it relates
to the expenditure of Red Cross seal
money shall include the following &C.
tivities:
l. The construction of hospitals or
sanatoria for the care of the tubercu.
lous.
2. The maintenance of the tubercu-
lous.
3. The provision of day or night
camps for the tuberculous; the provi
sion and maintenance of dispensaries
visiting nurses, open air schools, fresh
air classes, or preventoria for the care
or treatment of tuberculous cases OF
for the prevention of the spread of tu
berculosis.
4. The maintenance of educational
or legislative activities which have for
their object the prevention of infection
with tuberculosis.

Inventor Of the Alrbrake.

Who really invented the airbrakef
Certainly the automatic airbrake, the
one that has proved practicable and OF
permanent value In modern railroad
ing, was the product Of the late George
Westinghouse ingenuity. His patent
for the automatic brake was taken out
In 1872, superseding the non-automatic
or straight" Westinghouse airbrake
patented in 1869, and later the West
inghouse vacuum brake was invented.
But, as in the case Of most other in
ventions, there are several claimants
for originality in this field. Thus,
Nine. M. Drouanet, daughter of NJ.
Debruges of Paris, claims the distinc-
ton of priority for her father. The
New York Times has letter from
State Senator William P. Fiero of
White Plains containing patent office
declaration by his grandfather, Henry
Miller, of new and useful improve
ment in the application of steam and
compressed air to the purpose of OPP
Grating railroad brakes" recorded jan
uary 2, 1855. Mr.. Miller was doubt
less a pioneer in the progress of air
brake invention.

PARADISE FOR THE ARTIST
Devotees of the Brush Are Accorded
Accommodation Without Price
at Inn at Capri.

Capri, beautiful in itself as winter
resort, offers an irresistible invitation
to artists, since it has an inn where
anyone, by painting a picture on the
wall can get free board.
To the lovely island of Capri, with
its perennial summer, it's blue grotto,
and its lemon groves, came, some fifty
years ago, ruined artist. He opened
an inn, and died rich. In his will,
leaving the inn to his heirs, he made
these conditions:
THE charge per day, two bottles Of
red Capri wine included, is never to
be more than six francs.
IF any artist is too poor to pay he
shall paint a picture upon some wall
space. receiving all the accommoda'
ton accorded to those paying the high
est price.
IF any German artist shall come
to the inn he shall be accommodated,
and shall receive the amount of his
fare to Germany upon his promising
never to return to Italy"
The inn is conducted today on these
conditions. It's walls are covered with
paintings. Now and then a German
gets his fare home.

City of Mexico.-The ruins Of an
Client cities, remnants of dead civiliza-
lions, have fascination for most peo-
pie Be they scientists of great re-
nown or mere mortals of more COM
mon clay, somehow something stirs
within them at the touch of antique
things. The average tourist seeking
surcease from the daily grind, whether
Of the college lecture room or of the
constant chase Of the elusive dollar in
trade and traffic, who finds himself In
some strange city and learns that not
far off are the weather-beaten walls of
an ancient temple, shrine or place
whose history is mystery and whose
builders are unknown, HES himself at
once to that place. He touches the
crumbling stones, traces the grotesque
figures and queer designs, and mar.
wells that such things could have been
so many years before he came on
earth, perhaps even before the very
civilization of which he Is boastful
part came into existence.
Mexico is full of such ruins as these.
In Yucatan alone there are some sew
enty CT more. Approach to some of
these is too arduous to most tourists,
but on the southernmost shore Of the
republic lies the state of Oaxaca,
whose capital is easily accessible.
"Oaxaca City Is reached from Puebla
by the Mexican Southern" according
to statement in the latest pamphlet
on Mexico, issued by the Pan-Ameri-
can Union of Washington. "The dis
lance is 22S miles and the trip takes
IL hours. 1t is 288 miles from Mexico
City and the same distance from Vera
Cruz. Its population is 10000. 1t was
the early home of both Porfirio D:aZ,
former president, and Benito Juarez,
the patriot and national hero. Its age
makes it very attractive, but it is quite
modern in many ways, possessing
tramcars, electric lights, telephones
and other factors Of comfort. Another
feature connected with Oaxaca is the
fact that from the city the excursion
is made, about twenty-five miles to the
southeast, to the ruins or Militia, some
of the best preserved prehistoric re-
mains of all Mexico"
Militia is a contraction or corruption
Of the word Mictlah, meaning The
place of Death" The modern village
and the ancient ruins occupy the CEN
ter of an arid plain or valley, surround
ed on all sides by equally arid hills,
on the highest summit Of which are
the well-preserved remains of great
fortress, whose walls are of rough
construction and without ornament Of
any kind Nearly in the center Of the
plain FIVE great groups of buildings
stand out completely exposed. Many
of them are now nearly shapeless
mounds and masses of ruins. Two
great groups, however, are in compare
