Joe Tynan and Kipling.

Arthur Hunt Chute, in Leslie's
 I met in the Authors club recently one of the high-brow socialists, what Roose- welt would have styled a "parlor bol- shevist," an effeminate person with an affected voice which he had dedicated to downtrodden labor He waxed eloquent on the inequalities of the present sys- tenn. and prophesied coming day when here in America all men would be equal. He exclaimed, What right has Joe Ty- nan got to half million a year, when the great masses of the toilers in the shpyards earn only living wager"
 Never mind Joe Tynan," I answered; 'he's in the shipbuilding line. You don't know anything about that business. neither do l. We do know the writing business. so I say, What right has Rud- yard Kipling got to a dollar a word?"
 My friend, being something of critic. was a connoisseur of values in the Et- erary market. and admitted that Kipling was worth almost any price on account of his wonderful genius.
 Well" I answered. Joe Tynan does in ships what Kipling does in letters. and each believe in his different line is given.''
 My nfgnprow friend would stand for no leveling up in the esthetic world. Kipling and Michael Angelo were peer less, but as soon as we descended into what he regarded as the lower world of business, his pipe-dreaming political economy was a matter of leveling up, forgetting that the creative ability which brings forth it's Moses on marbles is but another form of that ability which brings forth our modern industries That same touch of genius which makes for the vast inequalities in the realm of art makes no less for inequalities in industry.

STAPLE WAS
 SUBJECT ID A DROP
 OF OVER ONE CENT
General List Closed Steady at a Net Decline of SO to 67 Points Under
 Monday
By Associated Press

New York, June S.-An opening ad- vance was followed by a break of over cent a pound in the cotton market today with October selling off from 31c to 29.4 .4oc and closing at 299 95c The gen eral list closed steady at a net decline of 60 to 67 points.
 The market opened firm at an advance of 30 to Ss points in response to unex- pected high cables and an unfavorable weather map July sold at Sl soc and December at 306oc on the call, but the ad- vance encountered heavy realizing and prices soon turned easier. This was pro- noted by the forecast for clear and warmer weather in the western belt, but the volume of offerings tapered off dur ing the middle of the morning with the market comparatively quiet and steady around midday on trade buying and cov- ering. The demand from trade sources however. was less active than recently and there was another wave of liouida- tion during the afternoon.
 Wall street was a particularly active seller, possibly reflecting the advance in call money rates and stop orders were uncovered on the break which extended to S0.44c for July and 29.20c for Decem- ber or about 120 to 160 points below the high level of the morning and 105 to l22 points below last nights final figures There was a reappearance of trade de- mand on this decline and after the stop orders had been executed the market rallied some 40 to 55 points from the lowest on covering. Some of the south err advices claim that the crop has gone steadily backward since data for yes- terdays government report was gathered and there were reiterated predictions of increased exports. but bullish features seemed to have little influence and re- actionary sentiment was freely expressed around the ring.

CORN VALUES MADE
 ANOTHER CLIMB IN
 CHICAGO GRAIN PIT
Oats Made Fractional Gains, While Provisions Finished Unchanged to 45c
 Down
By Associated Press

Chicago. June 3.-Enhancement of val ues in the corn market made further progress today owing largely to un- atated competition between industries end shippers. The close was nervous at 11s@2c net higher, with July s171G1. Tlhs, and September s1.61%d162. Oats gained ls0ssc. Provisions finished unchanged to 45c down.
 Notwithstanding that arrivals of corn here were again liberal, the demand was so active that the offerings did not prove at all burdensome Moreover, an increase of 51,o00 bushels in the visible supply total failed to have any bearish conse- quenee, and the fact was pointed out that the total was about 100000 bush els less than was the case a year ago. Unfavorable weather conditions tended likewise to give strength to the market. Besides, there were bullish reports cur rent that planted acreage was smaller than at the corresponding time in 1918, and that the present status of the crop was below normal. Numerous automatic stop loss orders to buy were uncovered during the days advance.
 Frost predictions and export demand put some independent firmness into oats
 Provisions weakened by a break in the hog market Lard, nevertheless. held relatively steady, owing to a decrease of wal ehouse stocks here and to buying supposed to be for export.

Over Stewards Wire.

New York, June 3.--The high ten- sion under which cotton has been ad- vancing because of the seemingly in- termiable wet weather reached it's cli- max immediately after the bureau re- port was published. Nothing could have been more bullish than the figures but everybody had apparently bought in anticipation of it and was ready to sell out on further advance Scared shorts lifted prices to 51.90c for October in New York yesterday. Before the close s6 bale and selling out by longs who over-stayed their opportunity caused a further break today of $6 in "A hours. making 250 points, or $12.500 a bale.
 The underlying situation. that is as far as the needs of the world are con- cerned for cotton and cotton goods. is just as strong as ever. but no matter how urgent the need may be buyers will invariably take advantage of a sit- uation that turns in their favor and hold off for time. This seems to be the present case. Long liquidation Is likely to continue while buyers will hold, off unless they discover that the trade is taking hold again. Because the trade actually needs the cotton and must come back sooner or later. Re- member this reaction, although a se- were one, we must keep our eyes strained for the right point at which to take the long side again for a renewed advance.

COLUMBUS, MISS.

Columbus, Miss, June 2.-The gradu- the 34th annual session of the Mississippi Industrial Institute and college were held Monday morning. the baccalaureate ad- dress having been delivered by Hon. John M. Parker, of New Orleans. Mr. Parker who enjoys national reputation, having been the running mate of the late Col. Theodore Roosevelt when that gentleman was the progressive party's candidate for the presidency in 1912. is an unusually forceful speaker and delivered one of the best of many fine addresses which have been heard at the college since it was es- tablished in 1885. He said that the people of Mississippi were to be congratulated upon having such splendid institution and paid a high tribute to members of the graduating clasN. whom. he declared, deserved to be complimented upon the ann bition which they had displayed by com pleting the full course at the institution and thus equlpping themselves for useful work in the future.
 The graduating class was made up of 125 young ladies, prominent among the number having been Miss Annie Denman. of Charleston, Miss, who is totally blind. Miss Denman entered the college four years ago and has completed the full course, haNInR receiVeQ ner 01plOrnd AS a bachelor of arts. Her affliction, of course. made it impossible for her to peruse the text books and she gained the Knowledge which enabled her to graduate by having ',er lessons read to her by her fellow stu dents
 The commencement sermon was deliv- cred Sunday morning by pr. s. H. Wood row. pastor of the First Presbyterian church in St. Louis, who also addressed members of the Young Women's Chris tian association of the college at S:3O O clock the same evening.
 While graduating exercises were held Monday, the session which has been an unusually prosperous one. will not reach it's formal close until Friday, and under graduates will be required to remain at the institution until that date.
 Hon. H. L. Whitfield. president of the Mississippi Industrial Institute and col lege, who was appointed director for Lowndes county for the Boy Scout cam paign which is to be held during the week of June 1. is very much interested in the work and is preparing to conduct an intensive campaign.
