ORGAN WAS ONCE UNDER BAN
Scottish Presbytery, Less Than a Gen.
fury Ago, Declared Its Playing
Contrary to Law.

The organ, as an addition to the
musical service In the Presbyterian
church, was under ban less than a
hundred years ago, according to a
writer In the Manchester Guardian, re-
, calling the first organ made by james
Watt. 1t was small chamber organ,
In form like harmdhium, which he
built for his own use. When he moved
to Birmingham the organ was left be-
hind and came into the possession Of
the minister and session of st. An
drew's church, Glasgow, Of which
Watt had been member. The instru-
ment was used for. weekly choir prac-
tees, but was shrCuded under a green
baize cover on Sundays, as though In
disgrace. In 1906 permission to use 1t
was refused by the city council. Then
one Sunday afternoon, by pre-arrange-
ment, the church attempted to use the
organ without the councils consent.
An Organist from neigllboring Epis-
cOpal church was called in. He played
the organ while the last psalm was
sung. There was so much excitement
over the affair that bitter cOntro-
versy followed. The presbytery de-
clared 1t was contrary to law and the
constitution of the established church,
and it was prohibited in all churches
and chapels within their bounds. Sixty
years later st. Andrews church got Its
first organ peaceably.

II the Germans had had better

time on the things that really counted

hours hanging on their dugOut walls

energy was wasted, for the watch Ia

Got His Recent.

Humorous Incidents In connection
with the war are not yet exhausted
and Ian Hay gives this one In His
latest book, "The Last Million" In
connection with the capture Of VII
lage from the Germans. A detach
ment of infantry arrived at the village
only to find that tank had beaten
them by four minutes in the race to
the market square. The usual young
officer was In charge, and when the
major came along he handed the vii
lage over to his superior officer, and
then shyly asked for something to
show, "just to show, sir, that we were
here first" The major thought he
could fix that, and solemnly wrote out
a receipt: Received from the officer
commanding British tank Bing Boy
one village, In poor condition"

A water owl lives underground at

the pagOda was built on it to hold 1t

number of stories, ranging usually
from seven to nine, and sometimes

mayor MISSES POINT
IN VETOING CURB BILL
OVerIooks Markets Location,
Covered in Amendment.

1t may have been due to the fact that
he had been so busy attending to the re-
ception of President Wilson. At any rate
Mayor Hylan could not have read care
fully the ordinance passed unanimously
by the Board of Aldermen on July re-
curing all curb brokers to pay a license
fee OF $500 to the city when he wrote
the veto message which he sent to the
board yesterday.
The Mayor based his veto on the allie
cation that the ordinance was not broad
enough TO cover the curb market, II It
should decide to move from it's present
habitat in Broad street. This was true
as the measure was originally drawn.
but before II was passed and sent to the
Mayor for action that defect was amply
rectihed.
The board would undoubtedly repass
the ordinance over the Mayors veto II IL
had not adjourned for the summer 1t
is possible that a special meeting will
have to be called for that purpose II It is
found that the Mayor cannot withdraw
his veto message.
1.-THE grounds OF my disapproyal"
wrote the Mayor ARE that, II the said
proposed ordinance should become a law,
Il would prove non-efrectivs as against
the association involved In its provisions,
for the simple reason that said assoca-
ton could readily evade 1t by moving its
activities to other quarters within a
block or so of the present site. The said
ordinance appears to grant to the said
association an exclusive privilege, viz
the privilege OF selling, exchanging and
N size
mentioned in It."
The original measure defined the curb
market as being in Broad street, between
Exchange place and Beaver street. Be-
fore II was passed Alderman William T
Collins, chairman of the general welfare
committee, amended 1t to cover any stree.

FINAL COTTON BIDS
SHOW SMALL GAINS
Market Fluctnates in Erratic
Manner and Breaks Sharp
ly in Late Trading.
PROFIT TAKING Is HEAVY
Closing Quotations Are IL to
25 Points Higher and the
Market Is Steady.

Fluctuations were rather erratic in the
cotton market yesterday. a sharp break
occurring in the late trading after prices
had risen considerably. Final bids,
however. showed small gains over previ-
Gus closing figures. Although not a
few new factors appeared to influence
values, prices made only moderate re-
sponse. one way or another. At times
Yesterday buying was general. with
Liverpool leading. There seemed to be
considerable optimism in local circles
over the reported ratification of the
Peace Treaty by Weimar and the Preh-
dents speech was regarded as favorable
for those long OF the staple for the rea-
son that II had much to do with the
complete lifting of the enemy blockade.
which the President again accented
ended with peace.
The action Of Liverpool was also a
bullish factor. In that market futures
made a gain Of considerably more than
a substantial rise. The strength In
Liverpool was attributed mainly to the
reported settlement of the strike at
Manchester. one despatch received here
stating that operatives would return 10
work on Monday.
Generally speaking, most factors yes
terday favored the bulls. The weather
was again rainy in many sections OF
the belt. particularly Eastern States
and there were several other factors, all
bullish. But It cannot be disputed easily
that the market was tired and carrying
too much long cotton. The reaction
which came in the late business was
partly due to the drop in securities,
which was also sharp.
The local ring opened to moderate
business at an advance Of 81 to 6a
points. July started at S4.S5c, Septem-
Der at 34.75c, October at 34.75c., De-
cember at 34.55c., January at 3435c,
March at 34.15c., May at 34.O7c
There was a good deal OF local and trade
buying following the call. and options
soon were bid up to their highs for the
day approximately 80 to so points over
Wednesdays final figures Later deal
ings saw a rather mixed character OF
business and there seemed to be a dis
position on the part OF many Wal
Street traders to take profits. But there
was enough support usually present or
dips to rally the market again.
With later business pressure increased
decidedly and trading was also some

FALL KILLS NAVARRO,
ONE OF FIRST ACES
Eccentric French Filler Tries
to Avoid Crash.
By the Associdted Press.

PARIS, July Lieut.. Jean Ma
varre. who was one of the FIRST aces
among the French aviators during the
war, and who was withdrawn from the
service because OF his eccentric esca-
pades, fell while flying in the vicinity
Of Versailles this afternoon and died
soon after In a military hospital
Lieut.. Navarro was about to land at
the airdrome at Villacoublay when, in
trying to avoid a collision with other
machines, his airplane crashed. Ma
varre had not been attached to the mill
tary aviation forces for some time and
was training for civilian flights.
Sub-Lieut. Navarro officially was cred
tied with bringing down twelve enemy
airplanes, although the Paris newspap-
ers during the latter part Of his service
in the French Aviation Corps credited
him with the destruction of nineteen.
Several decorations were awarded to
Lieut.. Navarro by the French Govern
ment for his exploits in action against
enemy aviators. In April, 1917, after
his retirement from the service, he was
arrested and placed in military prison
charged with having run down several
policemen Of Paris with his automobile.
At the time 1t was reported that he
would be examined by military experts.
After his release, II was reported that
he intended to go to the United States
as an instructor in aviation.

Scarcity of SILK Goods Here.

Conditions in the local silk goods
market are unusual. Except for small
quantities OF merchandise distributed
in various quarters of the trade the
wholesalers have nothing to offer the
army OF buyers who are visiting the
market in search of goods. Offers were
made by some OF the large buyers yes
terday to place contracts for delivery
as late as February. but manufacturers
are steadily refusing to book such or
ders on the plea OF the uncertainty of
prices.
In some centres II was said that
prices are likely TO advance again
shortly on account OF the increase in the
price of raw silk and higher labor costs.
Generally manufacturers are looking
forward TO an era Of high prices for at
least two seasons
