Green & Co.'s report on cotton futures savs:
"It has been alight and not particularly impor
tant deal on cotton contract* for the day gener
ally. However, the turn was a shade better,
with 5 points gain shown at otic time, from
which there was a slight easing olf at the close.
There seemed to he an absence of selling orders
with the usual Saturday inclination to cover,
and t his created the demand. Buyers were also
a little harried by crop reports showing 4 per
cent, loss in condition and the continuation of
drought, reports from Texas. Liverpool was
steady and a fair spot trade was done here for
export.”

| {Chicago, Aug. 6.—The weather map this
morning exhibited great scarcity of rain all
through the corn belt, except one or two unim
portant points in Kansas. This was sufficient
to run up the price 54c at the opening. Septem
ber was then selling at even 40c, against the
close, the night before of 3954 c. out while the
pit was filled to about the same extent that it
has been for weeks, or since the drought be
came such a factor, there was a notable lack of
interest. The day of the week had much to do
w ith this, for Saturday is nearly always an "off
day," one on which open trades are closed, and
no new ones made. Thus it was that, for nearly
an hour before there was no fluctuation of an
54ic. Toward the close a local speculation
started, having heavily of May corn, which
finned all the options up, and final prices were
nearly lc better than last night, for all futures.
The wheat market to-day suffered a decline, of
540 earlv. and later not only regained the loss,
but advanced to a point below the open
ing prices. There was some activity when the
hears dragged it down to 68c for Septemlier and
73c for December, but the bos! feeling of the
day was when the bulls, shortly before the close,
carried September up to 9cand December back
to 74c. There were large quantities of long
wheat tbrown on the market on Its way down to
68c. The crowd claim to have traced all dump
ing to on-’ prominent operator. There was a
light trade in oats, and the spuculatitu market
was w ithout H|M-ciu! features. Pric -s fluctuated
narrowly, and dosed 18''tkp' better than yester
day for dallvere-:; beyond August for cash and
this month's delivery. The tendency was down
ward. ow ing to continued large receipts, l’ro
visions were closely watched, and toward the
close nt hiasi a strong undertone was plainly
noticeable. Early hi the session, however, the
bear side hod the" call for a time. The closings
showed an advance of 25613 5 c on lar i; while
short ribs averaged 254 e Tower for the near
deliveries. January short l ibs were advanced
5e September, the leading future, sold at $6 50
(366:94 for bird and $7 9254<b803foi*short ribs,
closing at $6 lift and $8 9354. respectively. Prices
for pork was steadier, and the longer futures
ranged higher.

An American Aristocrat.
From a Washington Li tter to the Kansas City
Journal.
“Whoa! Clang!'’ was the curious formula
which I heard another farmer use one day
this week. Ho was driving a pair of Nor
nimi Perelieron mules to a wngon loaded
with brick, and as ho shouted to them ho
w nicked wu ni ihythmieulh with a broken
lath upon the afterdcck.
Him I knew by sight. Washington is
pretty well acquainted with his contour. It
was Lord Fairfax, as he is playfully called
by liis acquaintance, and there is a good
deal of curiosity expressed about him. The
fact is that he is an aborttxi lord. Ho is a
direct descendant in the oldest son line of
that distinguished lord, Thomas Fairfax,
who did so much to assist the settlement of
Virginia the Lord Fairfax who gave
Washingliton his first commission, who
established the grand manor of Greenway
Court in the Shenandoah valley, who re
mained true to his King through all, and
who, when he heard that George Wnsliing
(ton had captured laud Cornwallis, re
marked: “Sam, put me to bed: it is high
time I should die”—ami immediately died.
Green way Court perished long ago, but the
Fairfax family has retained much land in
tV vicinity of Fairfax court house, and
t'.ey still remain strongly attached to the
soil—-’iko them of the collateral line, the
Fairfaxes of England. This man of the
mule team is interesting, because he Ims only
to go to England, prove title, Lake the iron
clad oath, and bo reconstructed, to sit in the
House of Lords.

After ten years of great suffering from
indigestion, with great nervousprevtration,
biliousness, disordered kidneys nndconstipa
tion, I have been cured by four bottles of IJr.
.Mosley’s Lcuion Elixir; nod sm now a well
man. Rev. C. C. Davis, Eld. HI. E. Church
South, No. 2S Tattnall street, Atlanta, Ga.
Advice to Motnera.
Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Hyrup should
always be used when children are cutting
tn tii. It relieves the little suffer ht once; it
produces natural, quiet sleep bv relieving
the child from pain and the little cherub
awakes as “bright us a button.”
It is very pleasant to taste. It. soothes the
child, softens the gums, allays all pain, re
lieves wind, regulates the bowels, and is thfc
best known remedy for diarrhoea, whether
arising from teething or other causes. 25
cents a bottle.

newmilOnery at
KROUSKOFF’S
Mammoth Millinery House
We are now offering immense lines of New Straw Hats,
Ribbons, Feathers, etc., which are now being shipped daily
by our New York buyer, and our Mr. Krcuskoff, who is now
North to assist in the selection of the Choicest Novelties in
the Millinery Line. It is astonishing but a fact, that we sell
line Millinery cheaper than any retail store in New York. How
can we do it? Cannot tell. This is our secret and our suc
cess. Perhaps on account of large clearing out purchases or
perhaps from direct shipments from London or Paris—but no
matter so long as the ladies have all the advantages in stock
and prices.
\Ve are now ready for business, and our previous large
stock will be increased, and we are now offering full lines of
fine Milans in White and Colors, for Ladies, Misses and
Children in an endless variety of shapes
RIBBONS, RIBBONS, new novelties added and our regu
lar full line entirely filled out.
We knock bottom out in the price of Straw Goods.
We continue the sale of our Ribbons at. same prices as
heretofore, although the prices have much advanced.
We also continue to retail on our first floor at wholesale
prices.

WITH THE GREATEST SUCCESS OF THE~AGEI
TIEEIEj old reliable
Charter Oak Portable Ranges and Cooking Stoves,
WITH THEIK WONDERFUL IMPROVIDENT,
THE WIRE GAUZE OVEN DOOR,
LTNl VERBALLY CONCEDED to bo the greatest improvement ever attached to a Cooking
J Stove or Range. Hy the admission of fresh air info the oven in the form of small jets, it
purities that which is otherwise vitiated, at the same time saving the Juice which i the nourish*
ment of meats without the necessity of BASTING, and a considerable saving of time, labor and
weight sufficient to pay for an ordinary Cooking Stove several tiroes over. One of the features of
the CHARTER OAKS, with the WIRE GAUZE DOOR, is that, of BROILING STEAKS in ttfo
< >VKN and not over the coals, thus avoiding the loss of juices being burnt or tainted by smoko.
Steaks broiled in a CHARTER OAK, with the WIRE GAUZE DOOR, becomes tender, iuicy and
delicious. All those who have used the old reliable CHARTER OAKS know them to be a firefc
chiKM article, and will readily understand the theory of this truly wonderful improvement, they
will herald their success with unstinted praise and delight. There*is no mechanical’ingenuity
required t- > understand how to operate the CHARTER OAK RANGI O or Bit IV EB, they are vary
simple in construction, so much so a child could work them. It is rae only Range having one
damper that will heat water in the reservoir and bake well at the sam* tone. We have so much
confidence in the (’HATER (>AKS, having had one in operation iu otir stove, that we are prepared
to substantiate everything claimed for them. The public are cordially Invited to call and have
the theory of the WIRE GAUZE OVEN DOOR fully explained, or send for descriptive circular to
