New York. April 1o-Cotton goods mar
kets have grown frmer and prices have
continued to advance. Many lines of col
ored cottons have been placed at value or
withdrawn from sale because of the scare
ity of domestic dyestuffs and the un-
certainty of further supplies. Several lines
of brown and bleached domestics are quot
ed higher following steady sales for sum
mer delivery. There has been sustained ac-
tivity in ready-to-wear circles.
Exports of cotton goods continue large,
in fact larger than last year to date, much
Of the increase coming from the large use
Of cotton duck and the active trade in
Mediterranean and African ports. Wide
sheetings are up 2h per cent, through a
shortening of discounts. Denims and many
other colored lines are priced at nominal
figures. Prints and percals are moving
steadily Bleached muslins are higher
Print cloths sales have been active.

Clty Magistrate krotel, who is noted ioi d characteristic brand of dry hu- nlor' occasionally manifested In ut terances from the bench, turned a cruel shaft loose upon a pestiferous Souhg attorney this week, to the su. preme enjoyment of a crowded court room, says the New York correspond- eht or the Cincinnati Times-Star. The young attorney was prosecuting in a case where the maintaining of a hui sance was alleged The rulings of Maglstrate Krotel did not please him. HIS numerous objections became per- slstently controversial. If your honor pleases,' he said, "I would not pre-. sume to instruct the honorable court Ill a question of law, but am impelled to observe that 1 doubt-in the pres ent case only, of course-if the court properly conceives of what constitutes a nuisance"
 You are mistaken, sir" was the re- sponse from the bench. This court nas never had more clear or exem- plary idea of what constitutes a nui- sance than in the present case at the present time And for that, in a measurable way, the court thanks you, sir"

DIDN'T PRAISE" THE CHICKENS
But Evidently Dealer Hadn't Quite Comprehended Question Asked
 by His Customer.

Here is a little story that was told by Congressman William c. Adamson of Georgia when the conversation turned to natural misunderstanding:
 A young housewife who lives in a suburban town went to the village store to make some purchases.
 These chickens look very nice,' re- marked the customer, pausing before the poultry counter. How much are they?"
 "One dollar apiece, madam was the prompt response of the obliging pro prietor You can't find better poul- try for the money in the whole coun- try"
 One dollar thoughtfully unused the customer, and then added: Did you raise them?"
 "Oh, no, madam!" was the hasty assurance of the misunderstanding storekeeper. That is the same price I offered to sell them for yesterday

trimmings, unlike any that have gone before.
 Three of the new patterns are shown in the group pictured here. The small hat at the top has a coronet of velvet which is wide at the back but narrowed to small upturned brim at the front. A brilliant corded silk GOV CTS the crown and the inside of the coroEet, forming binding about the edge of the hat. Two smart, upstand- ing plumes at the back, taken with the shape of the hat, suggest mili- tary mode.
 At the left wide-brimmed hat with soft crown is made of velvet. The brim is curved in gentle and grace full lines. A metallic braid and large flower, which looks like the airiest of tiligree, make up the simple and very effective trimming.
 At the right felt hat faced with velvet shows another of the pictur- esque wide-brimmed models In this hat the crown is higher. Wide moire ribbon and silver lace adorn the un- usual shape, in which the brim Is deeply slashed at each side.

It has short opening at the front with eye lets worked in tan floss in close even buttonhole stitch on each slde' Jt slips on over the head and fastens bv means of narrow ribbon in black or dark blue laced through the eyelets. A bit of needlework appears on the cuffs and collar in small embroidered disk of the same size as the eyelets.

No Cause for Alarm.

A young preacher who was staying at a clergy house was in the habit of retiring to his room for an hour or more each day to practice pulpit ora tory. At such times he filled the house with sounds of fervor and pathos and emptied 1t of almost everything else. A wellknown bishop happened to be visiting a friend in this house one day when the budding orator was holding forth.

 But you don't understand my ques- tion," said the inspector, and he re- peated it again.
 Still the boy gave the same reply.
 "Ah, my boy" exclaimed the inspec- tor at last, "it is clear you don't know mental arithmetic"
 But I know my father" said the boy, promptly.

Where 1t Was Approprjate.

Lord Kitchener, it is said, is very pleased with the result of the present temperance move.
 We are all temperate now" said his lordship recently.
 "To get drunk is an unheard-of thing among gentlemen. If a gentleman ever gets drunk nowadays he has, you may be sure, a remarkable excuse to offer To illustrate his point Lord Kitchener told this story:
 A major, after fancy dress ball at Simla, came home drunk and his shocked wife said to him:
 Aren't you ashamed to return from the ball in that condition?"
 Don't blame me, my dear" said the major; you must remember that the character l assumed was that of 8 sponge"
