Ployes Adopt Cupid's Code,

Cupid Is a fearless little person,
and even the click OF telegraph in
struments dottng of messages OF
more or less importance, does not
dismay him. His search for hearts

the little fellow into unexpected
places. And, s. IS said. he IS a true
marksman.
Therefore. Il was 10 have been eX-
peoted that Cupid would find a tar

the Western Union telegraph Office
IN the Oliver Hotel Bldg. Yet. only
two persons connected with the tele-
graph company were even aware
that Cupid was about one OF them
was Miss Ida Harrigan. whose home
address IS <01 -. Michigan St The
other Is F. 3. Bradley. whose bust
ness address fs Detroit, Mich.
Mss Harrigan Is cashier for the
telegraph company in its South Bend
Offices. Mr.. Bradley is relief man
aver for the Western Union. Some
time those whose hearts have been
made targets for Cupid's arrows are
able 20 keep the fact secret for long
sfter the piercing is done. Others
are not.
Miss Harrigan and Mr.. Bradley
were doing pretty well at keeping
their secret until they went to St.
JOSEPH, Mich, last Wednesday with
the avowed purpose OF Miss Harr1-
gan changing her name 70 one iden-
teal with the one borne by Mr..
Bradley, and Mr.. Bradley with the
avowed purpose Of taking unto HIM
self a wife. They also had another
purpose. thai o. keeping the whola

But, alas. as It so often happens
In similar cases, somebody from
South Bend who knew both Miss
Harrigan and Brr. Bradley saw them
in ST. Joseph, and being Of an In
odisitive turn OF mind. he found out
what had happened. The use OF the
long distance telephone was then
employed by this tnduisittve person
TO acQuaint the other employees OF
the Western Union in South Bend
of his discovery.
SO, when Mr.. ana Mrs. Bradley
disembarked from the car that
brought them back from st. Joseph,
they were met at the 1nterurban sta

Union employees. an armed with ap-
propriate salutations.

WEEKLY COTTON REVIEW
By Associated Press

New York, April 3O-The cotton market has shown considerable irreg- ularity during the pas; week, but fluc- tuatons have been comparatively mar row. and trading restricted by the continuation of the British coal strike the uncertainty of an agreement on war reparations and reports that south ern spot holders showed disposition to sell little more freely on advances. On declines offs rings from that source have been little in eviSence. however, while unfavorable weather for the new crop start has restricted specula- tive selling and helped the general undertone of the market The first May notices, estimated at between coco and 1000 bales, were readily stopped at premium of from 5S to 6f points on July, and it is reported that hedges against the local stock have now been almost all transferred to the later deliveries. As May liquida tion subsided. the m@r-set steaded up during the middle of the week on re rorts of better prospects for a set clement of the coal .r;ne dispute in England and of an agreement on rep arations, but later in the week the news from both these quarters was less favorable. Notwithstanding the labor troubles, trade advances from
 
 couraging. A good business is said to be in prospect there as soon as 1t is possible for Lancashire spinners L., name definite dates for deliveries and British trade interests were credited with buying early new crop months in the futures market here today The less favorable view of the situation as to separations had comparatively It, tie effect unless 1t has been to restrict the volume of business. Exports for the present week exceeded the move ment for the corresponding week last year and local statisticians expect them to run relatively heavy as compared with last years during the balance of the season. Last year exports fell off sharply after May l, while reports have been reaching the trade here recently of preparations to ship considerable cotton to Europe on consignment. Prl- vate reports so far Issued have pointed to decrease of about % per cent in acreage and indicates that the pros r ects for an early ntw crop start has been materially modified by recent un- favorable weather.
