GLORIFIED BUCKWHEAT.

That batter pot was glazed a dark

skill in the use of snowshoes. Among
the guides attending these house parties
will be found men who can instruct the
newcomer in the use of snowshoes.
Parties are organized and the surround

Much of the hunting is besides done on
snowshoes. since there are few beaten

COTTON MARKETS.
NEW YORK,

NEW YORK. August 3.-The cotton
market opened firm. at an advance OF
IL to IA points, in response to relatively
firm Liverpool cables and the failure OF
the weather map to show as much rain

yesterdays late sellers. Houses with
Liverpool connections were consider
able buyers here, suggesting that yes
terday's government report had made
rather more bullish impression on
sentiment abroad than it had in the To-
cal market. and t.-ere was also some
trade buying of the near months, but

fluctuations were omewhat irregular.

The buying became somewhat less
active after the close of Liverpool, and
