conceited that everyone said In Spider
Town that he would come to grief at
an early age.
He spun webs In the most danger

for there were many spiders living in
the attic where Brown Spider lived.

and kept on with his reckless doings.
One day Puss came to the attic
hunting for mice. and when she ran
under q chair where Brown Spider
sat In his web near the floor she took
the web and Brown Spider, too. away
on her back.
Everyone thought that was the end
Of him, but by and by he came run

new web under a low shelf by the
window.

time" said one spider from her safe
home high in corner.

Brown Spider. II just wanted q
ride; that was all. l went part way
downstairs on her back and then
jumped off. 1t was great sport. Why

COTTON

NEW YORK, Dec. 14.-The cotton market
opened at an advance of 10 to SO points
today owing to the continued strength Of
Liverpool and large domestic consumption
figures for the month of November as re-
ported by the census bureau. January sold
up to 17.45 and March to 17.43, making
recovery of So to IS points from the low
level of yesterday, but these figures met
scattered southern selling as well as realiz-

points shortly after the call Private cables
reported Manchester and continental buying
in Liverpool and small offerings from the
south. Houses with foreign connections were
buyers of late months, but there was some
selling here for LIVERPOOL accounts.
The market was less active later, with
prices working gradually lower under scat
tering liquidation and a little southern sell

southern selling here, however, was more
generally attributed to further liquida ton
on long accounts than to hedging against
actual or increased spot pressure.
Reports that over 1000 bales of cotton
had been shipped out of the local stock
and continued activity in southern mills
gave the market a firmer tone during the
early afternoon, and prices went back to

OVATION FOR PRINCE
BOYCOT7ED IN INDIA

LONDON, Dec. 13.-The visit of
the Prince of Wales to Allahabad,
British India, has been completely
boycotted, according to a dispatch
from the Central News from Allah
abad.
The prince arrived there at 10
o'clock this morning, but the pro-
fusely decorated streets were desert
ed, with the exception Of a few
thousand persons, mostly Europeans
and Eurasians. 1t is said, the dis
patch adds that intimidation and
terrorization are responsible for the
boycott.
The arrests throughout India in
recent days has reached total of
500, according to official advices re-
ceived here. The greatest number
of persons were taken into custody
in Calcutta, where what is termed
the "hooligan" element is becoming
more evident in the volunteer socie-
ties, in view of the coming visit of
the Prince of Wales.
The government in India has
adopted sterner measures for han
ding agitators by enforcing two re-
pressive acts, the criminal act of
1908 and the prevention of seditious
meetings act of 1910, of which the
membership of societies which have
been declared unlawful are subject
to arrest.
