In the sixteenth century romances
Of chivalry, written in absurd, ex-
<aggerated style, We're extremely
popular in Spain.
AZ dignified gentleman by the name
Of Quixada. who lived between Ara
gon and CASTLE. went crazy over
these foolish books, which he spent
alle his substance in buying. His
brain was stuffed with entertainments,
qtarrels, battles, challenges, wounds,
magic salves, complaints, amours,
terments. giants, castles, captured
niaidens, gallant rescues, and all
sorts of impossible deeds of dar-
ing, which seemed to him as true
as the most authentic history. Every
innkeeper was a magnate; every
niule-driver a cavalier.
He decided that for his own honor
and for the service of. the world, he
must turn knight-errant and jaunt
through the world, redressing the
Wrongs, rescuing captured princess
es, and at last winning the imperial
seepter of Trapizonda.
He changed his name to Don QuiX-
ote re la Mancha, got himself dubbed
knight by rascally publican, whose
inn he thought was a castle with
four turrets crowned with pinnacles
of g1istening silver. In order to car
ry a full purse he sold one of his
houses, mortgaged another and Dor

a farmer named Miller. living

ly solved the high cost of coal for
his family in an original manner.
This farmer has a big cornfeld
facing the railroad for a quarter of

crows out of his cornfield. Farmer
Miller constructed three modern
'Scarecrows" a foot inside his fence
lie secured and rugged up his scare
crows with hideous and most gro

attracted the attention and the aim
of brakemen on the coal trains,

it his business every time his coal
train passed to shy a black diamond
at each scarecrow. Noting the grow

three additional scarecrows in his

in addition to raising bumper
corn crop he will get his supply of
winter coal for gathering it up.

When his practical housekeeper and
his pretty niece, together with his
neighbors, the barber and the curate,
thought to cure him by burning his
books, he was persuaded that his
library had been carried away by a
necromancer. and became crazier than
ever. He secured up a. rusty suit
of mail which had belonged to one
of his ancestors, mended the broken
helmet with a pasteboard visor,
patched with thin iron plates, and
thus accoutered set forth on his old

e. W. Wagner Il Co.: Pronounced bullish
sentiment has revived, although much sur
prise is expressed at the heavy discounts
beyond January.
S. NJ Weld & Co.: We continue to advise
purchases on weak markets.
Hubbard Bros. & Co.: So far as the gen.
eral situation is concerned, there is little
change, the trade generally awaiting the
coming government report.
Carpenter & Co.. 1t would not be sur
prisng after this (Saturday's) demonstra-
and active buying of months selling at ridic-
ulous discounts.
J. w. Jay & Co.: We are still bullish and

unsettled conditions outside of the cotton

NEW ORLEANS, Dec. Liverpool came
about Is lower than due on the near posi-
tions but was about 3 better than due on
the distant positions. Spot prices 20 lower.
With larger crop estimates, then the res
toration Of wartime coal restrictions, low
exchange rates would seem to justify this
tendency of distant positions on account of
their reduced price level and the prospects
of more settled conditions later on.
The many contrasting pieces of news and
influence made for an irregular opening, 10
to 20 down followed by nervous and rapid
fluctua tons a range of 80 points. On
the whole, the market held better than was
expected because of the reduced price level
of the distant positions optimistic views on
the presidents message and of Mr. Garfield S
statement, large exports and the bullish dry
goods report.
Liverpool says demand for cloth and yarns
keeps good but manufacturers have sold all
their product for months ahead, and do not
care to commit themselves further. Cloth
can be sold for delivery year ahead at
very high prices leaving an enormous profit

NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-The cotton market
nervous and unsettled at the opening
today. Liverpool was barely up to eXpec-
tationS while over Sunday advices showed
no improvement in the Mexican or coal sit
alton, and the labor troubles at Fall River
probably increased disposition to take
profits after the rallies of late last week.
First prices were irregular at an advance
of to 10 points on near months but gen
orally 10 to 80 ponte lower and active posi-
lions sold % AZ points net lower during
the first few minutes with January declin-
ing to 35. 81.
A crop estimate of 10,642,000 bales ex-
Guiding linterS, by q prominent New Or
leans authority, encouraged the early sell
ing but offerings absorbed by the
Liverpool buying to cover straddles and
prices turned firmer during the middle If
the morning with January selling up to
36.40 and March to 34.40, or % to 30
points net higher.
The late forenoon advance was not fully
ma tanned but the tone very steady
during the early afternoon with the mar
ket comparatively quiet. December sold
up to 3S. 40, or 45 points above the closing
price of Saturday. while January sold
around SO. go, or about II points net higher.
Exports for the season crossed the 100000
bale mark today and are about 730, 900 bales
in excess of last years.

nothing else for you to do.

how chronically constipated or
