MARKETS REMAIN PRACTICAL
.LY UNCHANGED FROM 4 WEEK

The cotton market has for the past
week been playing somewhat hide
!. and-seek game, first up and then
down without any decided change
either way.
AT the close of the market Saturday
at noon slight decline was shown as
compared with the market at the close
last Monday
i The tone of the market Saturday
was rather firm Judging from the
opening figures showing the openio1
for January at 1890 and close at f2.9S.
| Despite the fluctuation the past week
from the growers viewpoint the outlook
is encouraging. The low average of
the condition report out on June !.
coupled with the weather conditions as
reported, put rather rosy hue before
the growers
Favorable weather conditions keeps
the Spectator buoyed up in the belief
that the crops will be normal hence
the disposition not to operate too ex-
tcnsively.
The recent war news relative to the
naval battle between the British and
German fleets will without doubt affect
the market to some extent and may de-
cline considerable number of points
yet it is not believed by the exporters
that the market will be materially af-
fected. 1t is generally conceded by
those who know any thing about the
ha bits of the cotton market that heavy
selling almost invariably produces a
decline in the market, based upon this
process of reasoning this paper would
not advise selling just at this juncture
of affairs.
The market may and in all probable
ity will continue to bob up and down,
but the fellow who sits steady In the
boat is bound to come out at the right
end of the horn after awhile.
The grain and produce market shows
but slight change from a week ago.
Wheat, however, shows decline of
1-2 cents due to the report that heavy
shipments of supplies were being re.
ceived by the British government.
i Stocks and bonds show but little
change over quotations of week ago,

TO KNIGHTS CRITICISM
Doctor Attacked for Treatment

Dr. Franklin p. Brady, surgeon-in -chief
of the Roosevelt Hospital, today replied
TO Coroner knights indignant criticism
of the hospital in the case of Frank Hor-

3-year-old boy, who died at the hospital

skull. 1t was fraGtuEed in the 47th auto
mobile killing of the year.
Having nothing to hide, we invite the
investigation which the Coroner prom
ised." declared Doctor Brady, who is an
eminent brain surgeon. Everything that
could be done for the child was done. The
case was under my personal charge from
the time the child was brought to the
hospital"

That affords smoother riding than does
an ambulance. We have no X-ray.

cause the child was suffering from shock.

Attaches of the hospital today expressed
much indignation over the Coroners crit

his record and cited a recent case of a

La Belle LIE sieur. animal queen. dies
after giving birth to q baby; Doctor
Lund, owner Of circus. La Bellies nus
band. refuses to recognize child La BEL Belle
iptrusts baby to Flip a, clown. who rears
Peg as circus rider. Later Doctor Luna
second wife determines Peg shall not
share Lund's millions and sends Hlnau
servant to follow circus, and dispose OF
girl. Doctor Lund sends thugs to r get
from Flip letter that proves Pegs paren-
tage, Mrs. Lund also wants this LETTER.
Various exciting and hazardous attacks
and events transpire. Doctor Lund's son.
who is following Peg to. induce her to BE-.
come his wife, rescues the girl from many
iperilous straits. One of the incidents,
during pursuit OF Peg results In circus
being destroyed by fire: Peg is carried
to counterfeiters' den where young Lund
follows for purpose Of rescuing her. Many
strenuous encounters eyentuate before
Peg escapes and heads rescuing party or
circus people who release young Lund:
The circus owner, Doctor I1und.. decides

Secret service men follow Mrs. Lund to-
her home, searching for head of the coun-,
terfeiters' gang. Peg, again stricken by
her strange affiiction, accuses young Doc

terfeiterS - :

E"It was undoubtedly some Of the
yard men. They will come back soon."
Nevertheless Lund was nervous, and
Peg badly frightened. They tried the
door that had just been slammed shut.
1t was securely fastened. The door
opposite also resisted any attempts
to open it. ~,
Don't be frightened, little one. We
are together and we have made our
escape from closer quarters than this"
And then in an attempt to further re-
assure her, Lund returned to. his ex-
animation Of the pony's leg.
s ITS only bad sprain I guess" he
remarked. "Your new pet win be all
right-when we get him out of here"
Peg was, meanwhile, hurriedly ex-
amining the interior Of the car. The
only openingfshe was able to discover

The current brought a piece of the
demolished box car within their reach,
after they had swan q few yards, and
this served as buoy to help them in
their struggles. Both we're good
swimmers, but Pegs skirts finally be-
came serious impeachment.
Lund called to her a command that
she should depend more upon his sup
port, and he, in turn, placed his re.
lance upon the piece from the car
which had, SO closely carried them to
their death. The swift current OF the
river made ,Lund's battle extremely
difficult and II it had not been for the
artificial support OF the piece OF wreck
age the swim TO shore might have
never been completed.
But slowly and surely Lund pro-
crossed with his increasingly heavier
burden. Peg did what her failing
strength would permit her to do in
furthering Lund's efforts, but they
were a badly weakened and winded
pair when. ultimately, Lund was able
to touch bottom with his feet and
drag the girl he loved to safety on
the shore.
Then when he had hauled Peg out
of the water, and onto the smooth
sands Of the beach, they both sank
utterly exhausted. Darkness over
came them and they lay az though
life had fled, in state Of utter col
lapse.

customed to the tricks of the act.
1T won't take me long to master
this act" she said after a few mo-
ments. She patted the big horse and
petted the pony, making friends with
the animals at once. ..-.
The pony was her special delight.
When she had rehearsed awhile and
was ready for rest she left the ring
leading the pony, and romped with 1t
on the grass. outside the tent. ]
"Well, my little girl is am expert
sure enough" said Flip as he, met her
returning to the ring for another turn
at rehearsal. "Your old daddy Is
proud of you for sure. Why, there's
not one rider, in a thousand who could
change her work and take to another
line as quick as you, have, Peg, dear.
| And Peg tenderly kissed the old
clown as she left him again to enter
the. ring. Again and again the horse
and pony were put through >thelr
"paces" until the trainer and ring

lasted long enough for that time.
Then Peg, a pretty picture in tights
and tarlatan, made her bow to the
audience just as though the re-
hearsal were an actual performance,
and taking the pony by it's bride she
danced out Of the ring and back TO
the dressing tent, her work for that
afternoon at an end.
She was taking her time at Dress
ing, when the voice Of Flip, raised IN
excited tones, called her to the door.
she quickly donnedsa loose, cape and
hurried ont to find the old clown al.
most overcome with excitement.
20 Peg! iPeg!" he exclaimed,
something awful has happened"
s "Quick, quick, tell me. what's the
matter" Peg broke in before Flip had
time, to explain.
'The letter. the trunk-l'm
afraid it's stolen. Somebody broke the
box open while was rehearsing;; and
the breathless old clown choked with
worry and could not proceed further.
He threw his arms around Pegs
neck and lowering his head to her
shoulder began to sob like child.
There, there, daddy; calm yourself.
Perhaps you didn't look carefully.
Whatever was in the old letter can't
be any good to others-so be calm
and go look good for it. I'll see you
after I'm dressed" And as Peg
soothed him the old clown regained
his composure. ~
Pulling himself together somewhat,
he took Pegs face between his two
hands and said: rst
1T looks bad-it all looks bad, and
I'm worried half sick. There was

go and look carefully through my
things-l was so scared when I found
the trunk open that could not think
of nuchEof anything but to come and
tell you"
Flip returned to the mems tent and
Peg re-entered her own tent to re-
sumo her dressing. But she was soon
interrupted again by the trainer of the
pony she had just been working. II
"Miss Peg" the man called, "the
pony hurt it's ankle during rehearsal"
"Oh, my, the poor little thing" cried
Peg as she rushed to the door Of the
tent. "Is 1t badly hurt?"
well, I'm not sure, but I'm taking
him right down to the stock car as
soon as the hostler binds his leg a lit
