NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-There was
a renewal of yesterdays buying
movement at the opening of the cot
ton market today which had the ell
enlargement of relatively firm i4lVer-
pool cables. First prices were five
to eighteen points higher, with De-
cember selling up to 1915, making a
new high record for the season.
Later months sold up to about the
highest points of yesterday but the
advance met a great deal OF real1z-
ing while there also appeared to be
selling here against the increased
spot sales reported in southern mar
kets Yesterday. This caused reac-
tions of some ten or fifteen points
during the early trading and gave
the market rather an unsettled APP
pearance. Liverpool reports the adj
vance there was due to splnnerS
calling and a slightly better spot de-
mand.
After selling off to $500 for De
cen1ber and S4S9 for March, or about
Is to 20 points below yesterdays
closing, the market was rather nerV-
Gus and irregular. The volume Oh
business tapered off on the declines
and there were rallies on covering or
trade buying, but they met renewed
realizing and prices were at about
the early low points around midday.
No fresh news factor was discussed
in connection with the fluctuations
and the spurts of selling during the
forenoon were considered as largely
due to disposition to even up ac-
counts after yesterdays big advance.
Realizing continued during the ear
ly afternoon and a few stop orders
were uncovered on the decline which
carried the market off to 35.05 for
December and 34.75 for March or
about 80 10 So points net lower.

med the magazine, which he had
been perusing, upon an adjacent
table, uncrossed his legs and jumped to
standing posture. Then, flashing quick
and challenging glance upon his compan-
ions, and leveling an accusing finger at
the discarded magazine, spoke in sharp
staccato tone. "Bosh! pure unadulterated
bunk!"
"Calm yourself, and elucidate," said
Fred Williams, as he lit fresh cigar and
a broad grin encompassed his features.
Bill Harvey, who had been sitting at
small desk finished counting an assortment
of silver coins and some paper bills, placed
them in drawer, closed his desk, and
turned, with quizzical look, toward his
chums. Harvey was the proprietor, and
sole owner, of the prosperous Royal Hotel,
and he and the two other men were
gathered in his private apartments.

vey.
Jack Davis, who had began the conver-
sation, seeing that his friends refused to
become excited over his petulant outburst,
now assumed more reasonable attitude.
"Oh, those fantastic illusions that these
magazine guys are always serving up.

and eyed his hearers intensely, to perceive
their opinion and attitude toward his ora
torical effort.
A laugh greeted his mute inquiry, and
then Fred spoke, slowly, and in reAec-

in your opinion. 1 also think the stuff is
becoming threadbare and fanatica, but the

announced, "Now, Mr.. Harvey will speak

Harvey placed his right palm upon his

MANEUvERS
By Mr.. r. L. M.

~ S a part of the training before going

dulged in a strenuous form of sham
warfare known as maneuvers. Emphasis
on the strenuous). For the first day or
two these little trips prove novel and di-
verting after the monotonous routine of
drill in close formation, bayonet exercise
and cavalry drill which included such gen.
tie features as standing your mount ON his
or her nose inasmuch as the hills around
Deming are at about As degree angle.
Nor were any of these spots missed by the
regular army officer who conducted these
pleasant morning jaunts. 1t was his Gus
tom, also, to recommend glue as a means
OF clinging more intimately to the saddle.
But after two days maneuvers are not
what they are cracked up to be, especially
when one is accustomed to porterhouse
steaks smothered in onions and potatoes

can Cafe in Deming which was run by

fare on hikes consists of hard tack, fried
in bacon grease, army bacon and spuds,

same manner as weiners at weiner roast.

Yates dine OF porterhouse steaks, for -the4
mourners hit the mess line some twenty

nimble-fngered dicemen live the life of
Reilly after retreat.
When an infantry outfit starts on a
hike that will extend over nine or ten days
they simply roll packs, put field rations in
condiment and meat cans and few neces-
sary cooking utensils in wagons of supply
company and start. But with an all wagon
outfit it is different.
Feed for the stock must be carried; full
field equipment including a field black
smith shop as well as the saddler's para
rhernalia must be taken along so as to be
at hand in case of emergency. The feed
is no small item inasmuch as four up is
the regular thing on trips. By four up,
four mules to the wagon is meant ~.
Finally all is ready and the bugler
sounds the Forward The long line of
creaking wagons winds down Yucca Ave.

demands for her favors. (The victims of
Get Rich Quick Ponzi, can vouch for
that). And yet the opportunity for gain
ing wealth lies everywhere. The farmers
of Kimberly lived and died in poverty, not
knowing that the pebbles, with which their
children played were diamonds. If you
will put my theories to a test, you will
find that there is no 'unspanable hiatus in
my hypothesis"
Fred slapped his knee a resounding
whack and exclaimed, "Atta boy Bill No

hundred bucks saved, its peanut stand,
a shine parlor, or a weiner vender's can

sambo on the merry -go-round. His old
Nanny grabbed him after an evenings
ride and demanded, "Where yo' think yo'
been going? Yo' git off jest where yo'
done git on, an yo' moneys all spent"
At this point, Jack interrupted, and
said, Suppose everybody was to go into
business for himself, who is going to do
all the common labor?"
"Don't worry" reassured Bill. "They
wont do it. Quoting Fred's apt illustra-
ton, they'll stick to the merry go-round."
Here Jack broke in again, held up his
hand and, gazing earnestly at his friends,
while with words ringing with new hope,
and an enthusiastic determination, said,
"Say! Look here Bill! Never mind the
lecture, now,-Tm laid off for a couple of
weeks, while our shop is being over
hauled, and if you can show me how to
get away from a DANCED old salary, I'm
game. Try mel"
Bill eyed him appraisingly for moment
and replied: 81 believe you are an am
bilious sort of chap; you're on! It's
overals for you and me tomorrow"
"Ye Gosh" calculated Fred. "Tilly
finger" Bill Harvey in overalls"
The following morning, Bill, attired in
denims, and with an extra pair tucked
under his arm, raped at Jacks door,
Jack donned the overalls, and the two
left for breakfast, Bill carrying bundle
of old bed sheets under his arm. The
first stop, after breakfast, was at drug
store. Bill spoke to clerk and was soon
in the possession of five pint cans contain
ing spongy, salmon-colored substance.
"Going to put some working man out Of
business and save some money, Harvey?"
asked the clerk with wink.
"Nope. Going to get working man
into business and make some money" re-
turned Harvey as he paid for his pur
chases.
"Bills got lot of confidence" broke in
Jack.
"Well, he'll do it if he starts" replied
the clerk confdentially. II know him."
After leaving the drug store the pair
boarded a car and rode for some two
miles until the residence district contain
ing the homes of the medium working
class was reached "Here's our field"
said Harvey as they alighted and ap-
preached house, adding this admoni
ton: "Now remember Jack there is moth
ing done good enough until it is done
right, and we've got to put something
into business before we can take anything
out"
Three doorbells were rung, before a
housewife would even hear Bills PROPOSE

corted to the public exercises at
Keith's Theatre by the Patriarchs
Militant and the committee of local

business or pleasure for those at
tending the meeting. The Rebekah
