ment, ask your banker if the
investment you propose maxi

against it, good rule is to
heed him.
Good bankers. apd they are
in the majority, do not advise

ANOTHER BREAK ON
 THE COTTON MARKET
Another Exciting Day, With Prices ' to p Lower at Close Liverpool Was Buyer in the Late Trading.

New York, Oct 26.-The cotton market showed renewed activity and excitement today, with a further break in prices, which carried January contracts off to 1S.55c, or $6.25 per bale under the high records of yes terday. Rallies followed, with Janu- ary closing at 19c, and the general list steady at a net loss of to 25 points.
 The market opened easier at a de- cline of 27 points on December and to 10 points on later months, under overnight selling orders. Cables were relatively steady, while houses with Liverpool connections were buyers on the wider differences and after show ing net loss about 19 to p points shortly after the call, prices rallied on covering and bull support.
 The advance seemed to meet re- newal of heavy general liquidation however, while there avs scattered local selling on rumors of unsettled spot markets and a few stop orders were uncovered on the break, which carried March contracts off to 18.74c and May to 1S.90c, or IS to 54 points net lower, and some } to 15 points below the lowest level reached on the slump of yesterday. Offerings then became smaller and the market ral- lied very sharply during the last half hour on covering and trade buying accompanied by bullish spot advices from the South.
 Liverpool also seemed to be buying in the late trading.
 The market closed steady.

DEAN MILLER QUITS
 EXTENSION SERVICE
Has Left the State w. C. Las setter Now is Acting Director Pending the Naming of Dean Miller'S Successor.

Fayetteville, Oct. 26.-The resigna- tion of Dean J. H. Miller, director of the Extension Division at the Univer- sity of Arkansas, with headquarters in Little Rock, was requested by the University Board of Trustees after the United States Department of Az riculture reported to the board that 1t had reached the conclusion that Dean Miller had been and would be unable to bring into harmonious rela- tlon "all forces, both inside and out side, of the official extension organi- zation."
 This was the substance of a state ment made late this afternoon by J. C. Futrall, president of the university The statement was made after Presi- dent Futrall had considered an an Inouncement earlier in the day that he did not feel called on to discuss the matter. President Futrall admitted that the resignation at this time came as surprise, as 1t was expected that Dean Miller would hold office till January.
 The resignation is in no way con- sidered as a reflection on Dean Mil ler's ability in extension work or on his energy. It was the result of ire conciliable differences with the Profit able Farming Bureau, an organization composed of bankers and business men of the state, as to policies and methods Dean Miller left the state last night, but declined to say where he was going. It is said that he will take rest before entering any work. Assistant Director w. C. Lasseter will act as director until Dean Miller's successor is named. The position pays 5000 a year, from government and state funds.

The Diplnatic Service Under Wilson.

Mr.. Hughes attacks upon the admin

of the civil service laws and for it's raid
upon the diplomatic service has such i'm

likely to do much fighting back. Secre-

Hughes charges regarding Director Dur

shame to the administration, when the
Redfeld statement was proved false,
that the shouting is at an end.

diplomatic service had been handled with

a secondary consideration. John Hay, in

PLAYGROUND SEASON ENDS.
But the Grounds Will Be Open for the
Amusement of Children.

After one of the most successful sea
sons since the idea of providing public
places of recreation for the youth of the
city had its inception six years ago,
Barrels public Fairgrounds closed for the
summer Saturday afternoon. That does
not mean that children in three sections
of the city are to be barred from the
appointed places of play, for the grounds
at Ayers street, Gospel village and at
the North Barre school are to remain
open, even though the supervisor and his
assistant have finished their duties for
the year. Charles L. Brown, who has
proved himself to be one of the most
efficient directors of public play in the
history of Barre's public Fairgrounds,
left Saturday night for his home in
Romney, w. Va, where he is to remain
for two weeks before returning to Barre
to resume his duties ms a member of
the faculty at Spaulding high school.
Mr.. Brown will have charge of football
training at Spaulding again this fall.
During the summer, the director has
been in charge of playground baseball
league, with groups of boys, designated
each by number, playing regularly.
There have been additions to the equip
ment, and examination 70 the instruct
or's report discloses the fact that more
children than ever have been accommo-
dated. Naturally, Fairgrounds in the
north and south ends have been frequent
ed by larger number of children, but
the efforts of the supervisor and those
under whose auspices he was engaged
have not been confined to particular To-
cality. Starting the season with tidy
accumulation of money, part of which
was realized from the playground carni
val of 1915, the Woman's club has con-
tinued its good work of years past. The |
public playground in Barre is regarded as
a fixture and among the sponsors for the |
idea there is feeling that |
the work will be continued in 1917.
End of the Baseball League.
The playground league season finished
last week, with the Ayers street team
winning the pennant with an average
Of 800. Up to the latter part of the
season, when Ayers street won two
games from North Barre the race had
been exceptionally close, with North
Barre and Ayers street running neck and
neck. Polli, who pitched for the south

Ayers street victories, as he won nearly
