Cold Weather Affects Water and Power

The past week this district has SUI
iered the coolest weather known for
twenty or more years. The cold
weather has frozen the water in Myr-
tie creek so that the Bonner Water *
Light Company has been unable TO
get enough electric power for pumping
water into the water mains. The
fact that there is little snow on the
ground has made it possible for the
frost to penetrate to a depth that now
threatens the freezing of water mains
in the most unprotected places and
should the cold weather continue OF
get worse it is likely that the towr
may suffer serious Inconvenience.

COTTON GOODS--Crav
Goods Price Is Maintained

Although many cotton goods houses
were closed yesterday enough buyers
of gray or unfinished goods were in
the market to keep the price of 64-6Os,
the standard fabric, up to the 171a cent
mark set on Friday. Gray goods
brokers reported the market as strong
and active.
In finished fabrics, mills and jobbers
are receiving more calls for fine goods
than coarser merchandise. One Of the
leading mills making tickngs reduced
it's price from 45 to 40 cents a yard
to stimulate business The as cent
price was o little above the quotations
Of other mills.
With gray goods and raw cotton ad.
vancing steadily, the entire market
feels that prices of finished goods will
be increased in the near future. Most
of the mills are averse to taking on
new business now. When new goods
are offered again, say the mill agents
prices will be higher.

Big Attendance at Banquet
Richard T. Childs, chairman of the
hnancc committee, reports a large ad
vance demand for tickets for the clos
ing banquet on Saturday night. an an
nua event which is one of the most
mnortant real estate functions of the
year. 1t is promised that this years
more enjoyable than any in the past,
and though the committee does not
want to tell all it knows about this
affair, 1T is willing to- say that the
dinner will be so novel and interest
ing that no one can afford to miss it.
James Frank, vice president of the
Real Estate Association of the State of
New York, has active charge of the
convention plans, and in discussing
eiiS-h ooiO although we are plaIln .uS
to entertain our visiting members with
the things that cannot be seen any
where excepting in New York, and fully
rea lzing that banquet, as far as food
and entertainment goes, can be dupli-
Gated anywr ere, yet we feel that the in
dlvldual innovations planned by Alfred
H. Wagg and his associates are so un-
usual that we are sure this banquet
will long remain a pleasant memory to
our visitors. The demand for tickets is
far exceeding the supply. This seems
unfortunate, for banquets for over 700
persons are hard to handle, particu-
rcputo, hom everybody want 10 near,
and without having to strain the
speakers nerves"
On that occasion the McAlpin ball
room will be trans cormed into a VERT
able fairyland, for each dele cation is to
arrange it's own table decoration with
the products of the community from
which the delegation comes, and as {
background for the whole setting there
will be great skyline view of New

tire side Of the ba' room.
Convention May Unite Realty Bodies
This convention Of the Real Estate
Assoc alton of the State of New York
probably will be the most momentous
in it's history, because it may result in
( the consolidation of that body with the
Real Estate Board of New York and the
Brooklyn Board of Real Estate Brok
ers, move which long has been de
sired because of the great influence
which such a united body could wielt
in all matters regarding real estate.

LEATHER--Boggage Sales
.ShO,p Larec Increase

Retail dealers in leather suit cases
and travelling bags arc buying now in
anticipation of good winter business.
Manufacturers report that they are re-
ceiving three times the number of or.
ders they did this time last year and
that most buyers are Interested in the
higher grades. 1t was said yesterday
that the bag and case makers are SELL
ing as many $50 articles now. as they
did $40 lines last year
With business constantly increasing
manufacturers find themselves under
heavy pressure to All orders, some be-
ing weeks behind on deliveries. This
IS due largely to the shortage Of high
grade leather. Good quality cowhides

during the last two weeks, while a
marked increase was also made in the
cost Of lining materials.
