Falls Wednesday.
Fargo Forum: Late last night
there passed from this earthly exist
ence in her 93rd year an unusual and
dearly loved character, Mrs. .Eliza
Loring Nye, who has made her home
during the past year with her young
est son, Judge Carol A. Nye Of this
city. Born of pioneer revolutionary
stock in the state Of Maine, she and
her husband and their two children
came in the early days of Wisconsin
by boat and by prairie wagons,
among the first settlers of the Kim
nickinnic valley, near River Falls,
whittier they were later followed by
a number of Maine families who set
tied and developed that district.
Her memories Of those days abound
ed with the tales of Indians. and the
hardships of prairie life. It was in
Wisconsin that her son Carroll was
born. Among his early Impressions
is the ceaseless attention given by his
mother to matters of education and
wide reading. In that primitive
country opportunities we're few, but
it was her custom no matter what
other duties were pressing, to gather
her children together and drive miles
away to have them hear such of the
nations great men or returning
heroes Of the Civil war as came west
to deliver addresses.
An Ardent Patriot.
Being an ardent patriot, 1t was a
source Of deep pride to her to have
her son Carroll, go to France in the
late great war, on behalf of the
America she loved so we'll, and the
supreme longing Of her old age was
to live until after his return. She
Is survived by two sons. former
Congressman Frank M. Nye of Min
neapolis, and Judge Carroll A. Nye
of this city, and by an adopted
daughter, Josephine, of New YORK
City. Her son. Edgar, the celebrat,
ed humorist, bill" Nye. passed away
"a years ago. Ten grandchildren and
IA great grandchildren also survive
her, as do two sisters, Mrs. Marie T.
Field of Los Angeles, Cal, and Mrs
Mary Woodwork Of Ellsworth, Wis.
Her brother Lyman Loring, father
Of Major Charles Loring of Crooks
ston, was one Of the early settlers
of the Red rived valley. In the var
ious communities where Mrs. Nye
has lived her keen intellectual pow
ers and the friendliness OF her ma
ture attracted to her many persons
from all stations Of life. Her burial
will take place on Wednesday at
River Falls beside her beloved hus-
band, Franklyn Nye. who died "a
years ago.
"After life's fitful fever, she sleeps
we'll"

New York. May 1S.-RCnewrd liqui-

Liberty Bonds and Victory Notes put
all other movements and considerations
in todays stock market in the shade.
In the enormous outpouring of these is

il reflected the drastic measures being
taken by the banking interests to force

very little progress made. The usually

Commodity Markets
COTTON MARKET

New York. May 1S.-Considerable
selling developed at the opening of the
cotton market today. due to an impress
sion that weather conditions over the
belt had improved. There were private
reports of beneficial rains in Texas
where needed. and it was said that
clearing weather might be expected in
the eastern belt within day or two.
At the same time number of private
advices declared that much rCplanting
would be necessary because Of wet and
cold weather, but they did not appear
to check selling, which continued after
the opening until the market was
rather weak at about T. points net de-
cline.
Opening prices were irregular. being
from IS points advance to Is points de-
cline. the advance being shown on a
few old months.
