NEW ORLEANS COTTON.

New Orleans, Aug. 19.-The sell ing movement persisted in cotton today, forcing prices to the lowest levels recorded in about year. The opening was lower and the initial decline continued until prices were 67 to 87 points under yesterdays close. Upturns which followed hard ly went more than 30 points up from the lowest before fresh selling was met. Late in the day the market went to new low levels where Octo- Der traded at 27.O0 and March at 25.45. At these levels the list of trading months Twas at losses of 107 to IA. The close was i93 to 99 points down.
 In the early trading poor cables, somewhat better weather over the Delta and reports of lower cotton goods and yarn markets were main- fly responsible for the selling pres sure but in the late trading expec tation of further declines in the spot markets of the south were mainly back of it and that these expectations were justified was proved by the drop of 575 points in Texas markets.
 Both the eastern and the western belts sent in reports of crop deter ioration as the result frecent rains.

Try as he might, the man found it difficult not to think himself unfor- tunate when the catechism began. Now, when he piloted Miss Anniston safely through the Golden Gate and tied tip at the wharf at San Francis co, the voyage at last completed, he no longer tried to forget that it had been an ordeal. He knew it was not the nice thing to do and he belonged to a class of society that took pride in doing the nice thing. His family especially, had been noted for the gal lantry of it's men and the gracious ness of it's women. And he was a De Haven.
 But he also was a financier, man who made his living by using his wits. Could he use his wits now Could he escae what portended ever since her announcement that she had taken up dancing for her rheuma- tism?
 \ He turned these things over.in his mind till it made him dizzy. There WAS way out UuL d way AAPOSoAUAS for him, a thoroughbred. So he dis missed it and took unto himself lmuch of his own compassion. He would dance with her. He was com lmitted and resigned to that. For ltunately, he was strong, though now the felt weak.
 Il John De Haven did not know N whether to be glad or sorry that the
 Int course had come and gone the
 vay of the other courses. For, while
 1t gave him temporary relief in tht
 smoking room alone, there was the
 ineyitable dance with Miss Annistor
 looming ahead of him later. |! How he longed to be away iron Miss Anniston, away from the others

know how struck him as most pathe- tic.
 The man smoked, furiously. One cigarette after another was lighted from the stub of it's predecessor. He sat alone in a corner of the smoking room, trying to smoke as many cigar cites as possible before the dances Maybe they would serve to quiet him.
 The dance was in his mind as an ordeal. He suffered mental anguish because of it.
 Barbara, now was having good time, he knew. That did not add to his happiness, although it could not be said, truthfully, that John De Haven was envious, or selfish. It was merely that he could not refrain from measuring his own discomfort beside the evident pleasure of others were having.
 He started. That was weird scound. The musicians were only tuning their instruments. He had heard of plucking off the strings of three or four violins. He often had wondered how musicians could know their own notes from those of others when tuning.
 The tuning of the violins was a cue for him. That and the other men flinging away cigars and cigarettes and preparing to leave the smoking room. He too, took last whiff off his cigarette and went with the others to the drawing room.
 How he envied the other men as they went eagerly to find their din ner parteners with whom they were to dance. He saw the qickness o1 their steps and noted theeager light in the eyes of more than one. He found Miss Anniston. She wei comed him with glad and grate ful smile.
 I John De Haven bent over her, as ,l sisted her to her feet and offered
 his arm. Then, with the others 1 they went to the ballroom where, h | grimly reflected, Miss Anniston wa Il to take her rheumatism medicine wit him holding the spoon!

NEW TOR kSUGAR.

New York, Aug. 19.-Thc deadlock which has existed in the local raw sugar market for the past few days was finally broken today when Il local refiner entered the market and purchased 25,000 bags of Cuha5 at Il cents cost and freight and some odd lots of full duty sugars at 10 3-4 cents eff.
 The market closed at II cents for Cubas cost and freight, equal to 12.04 for centrifugal.
 There was nothing new in the re- fined situation and prices were un- changed at 17.10 to 22.50 for fine granulated.
 The decline in raws and the un- satisfactory situation in refined led to further selling in sugar futures and aside from January which was unchanged, prices were lower, closing at 15 to 43 points net dcclire with near months showing the greatest loss.

fifty at his side. He should be glad to dance with the Virginia girl. He went far enough in thought to con- slider the relief it would be to have something sweet when he had had so much that was bitter. This time he did not censure himself for hav- ing the thought. He had been tried, and soiely.
 They arose from the table. John De Haven was careful of Miss Annis- tons chair. He had seated her very cavalie4y, as was his habit in seating women. He withdrew her chair now with tfe same care and attention Miss Anniston was impressed with him and highly, very highly, pleased She thought he was such courteous nice young man.
 She told him so, bringing the color to his cheeks. He was not accustom- ed to being complimented just be- cause he had good manners. It made him feel like boy. She certainly was old.
 | Suddenly he was in a panic lest ! following the practice of certain elderly women, relatives that had frightened {and embarrassed him in his youth, she would kiss him before the company of diners. But that thought vanished. It was just for the moment and imaginative, fearful fancy. Miss Theodosia Annistor could not possibly do such athine If she had been relative, she migh' have wanted to, for she thought hin wonderful, nice young man.
 John De Haven beat all the othe: men to the smoking room. He seated Miss Anniston in thu drawing roon} bowed low to her ant excused hmisSlf.
 But not befpre she had spoken o l the dance that was to come.
 "I shall be Ihere, MT. De Haven, l she said, behinH her fan, "waiting fo you. Ton will hot be late, will you? she pleaded.

meet that cost and this is by equal
taxation. The people believe this and
are ready to do whatever is necess-
airy to adequately finance the schools.
They need only to be shown the way
to do it. A way has been found.
AT the November election three
amendments to the State Constitu-
ton will appear on the ticket for the
approval of the people. These, amend
ments are vital, or, to use the lam
guage of Mr.. Hart, State Superin-
tendent "are basic and fundamental,
in that they provide: (a) An increas-
ed school fund, to guarantee the right
type of instruction for children. (b)
a simplified method of administra-
ton, in order that the dollar paid in
taxes may go as directly as possible
to the benefit of the child. (c) In
creased enrolment and regularity of
attendance, in order that the Ulx
payer may realize the full value of
his investment and that the children
of the Commonwealth may receive
adequate training for citizenship"
The last of these refers to com
pulsory school law, the second, to
change in number and sex of trus-
tees, and thefirst and probably much
the most important as far as Tazc-
we'll county is concerned, to the re-
moval of the constitutional limit plac-
ed on county and district levies. These
amendments will be fully explained,
it is hoped, to every voter in the
county, and, to quote Mr.. Hart again,
"the support of every school patron
and friend of public education in the |
Commonwealth is earnestly solicited
TO secure the passage of these amend
ments.
