NEW YORK COTTON LETTER.
(Dully by Private Wire to Clark & Co )
New York, Jan. 16.—New York Joes
not like this advance/ and of course
has an adequate explanation .for it.
They have all been short, as‘ they al
ways are, and when the market as
serted its inherent strength, traders
hastened to cover. The South, as
usual, lias been tile only Interest that
has had any cotton to sell, and they
have been wise enough to secure prof.
Its on the contracts bought during the
weak period last week.
Spinners have in some Instances in
creased their limits, hut not to today’s
prices. On the other hand, the south
west linB sold some s,pots on the basis
of 11.70 for March, hut we are ad
vised that the selling basis has been
high enough to satisfy bidders.
Nothing makes more surely for
higher prices In the spring than a
market of comparadve steadiness
now, and It Is only a question of time
when consumers will he convinced
that the economic value of cotton Is
not much below prevailing prices.
C. D. FREEMAN & CO.
Meaning of Surnames.
Nearly, all surnames originally bud a
meaning. They were descriptive of
their owners. In a word, they were
nicknames, like “Skinny” or “Shorty”
or “Pud.”
Peel Is a surname that shows the
original Peel to bavo been bald. Graoe
means fat, from the French “gras.”
Grant, from “grand,” means big.
An Ollphant should be a clumsy and
unwleldly person. This surname was
"elephant 4 ’ originally.
The Parkers were keepers of noble
men’s parks. The Warners were war-
reners, or rabbit tenders. The Barkers
prepared bark for tanning. The La-
boucherca were butchers.
Bell meant handsome. Cameron
mennt crook nosed. Curtis meant po
lite. And Forster meant a forester,
Napier a servant in charge of the table
linen, Palmer a pllgrlui, Walnwrigkt a
wagon builder, Walter a wall builder,
Webster a weaver, Wright a carpenter.
—Philadelphia Bulletin.
Substitutes For Tobacco.
Sailors ou long cruises sometimes
exhaust their tobacco. Thence untold
misery and many Ingenious efforts to
create a tobacco substitute. Tea and
coffee make tbe best tobacco substi
tutes. They smoko freely In pipe or
cigarettes, anti their taste and aroma
arc not unpleasant. But they burn the
mouth and rack the nerves. Rope yarn
—the untwisted parts of rope and oak
um—Is smoked by sailors us a last re
sort. Bark, peeled from the hoops of
salt beef and^pork barrels, Is also
smoked when the limit Is reached.
These things smoko abominably, and
the black fumes that they give forth
from the sailors’ mouths are always
accompanied by oaths and impreca
tions. Yet many a desperate sailor
lms smoked them In the hope of ap
peasing Ills tobacco hunger.

Liverpool was again firm on the
opening at 2 points advance. Early
advices from the great English mar
ket said "shorts were nervous and
spinners anxious.”
St. Maurice.
St. Maurice, in Switzerland, Is the
name of a little station on the railway
that leads up the Rhone valley from
the lake of Geneva. The place gets Its
name ns follows: Mnurice was the offi
cer second In command of the Thebaic
legion, which, the Emperor Muxlmlan
marched over the Alps in A. D. 802 to
'quell a rising in Gaul. At Octodurum
(Mnrtigny) the legion, every man of
which was a Christian, was ordered to
sacrifice to the Roman gods for the
success of the expedition. Headed by
Maurice, they refused, marched off to
Agaunum (St. Maurice) and there were
twice decimated to enforce submission.
But they still refused, ami finally the
remainder were surrounded ami cut
down by the rest of the army.
Manchester reported better trade
and inquiry from China and Brazil.
The convention committees ratified
the action of the convention, and it
is 15 cents or “bust.”
There is no chance o'. an increased
acreage on the next crop. No labor.
It begins to look as if the big bulls
will not only stay for the big show,
but most of them have tickets for the
concert.
Automatic Cookfnrc Iloxen.
Automatic cooking boxes were In
general use among the Hebrews near
ly 2,000 years ngo. Tim Greek and
Roman writers frequently 'refer to
them. In. his edition of “Juvenile,” for
example, Friedlandcr cites a roiumen-
tr.tor, who refers to “the Jews who a
day before the Sabbath put their
viands hot Into the cooking boxes, the
pots being covered with nRpkins and
wrapped about with hay, so that they
may have warm food on the Sabbath.”
Spots were % higher in Havre, with
improved demand.
“ This will prove a very cold winter
for some Wall street bears.
Alwara In Evidence.
“1 notice,” observed Tuffold Knutt,
“that people don’t pay no taxes on tbe
costliest things tbey’s got."
“How’s that?” grunted Ruffon Wratz.
“Well, fr Instance, if you wua wuth
even a million you wouldn't have to
pay nothin' on that peach of a nose
you’ve got”—Chicago Tribune.
Print cloths have advanced i cent
per yard In the last thirty days.
Freeman reported very little cotton
for sale in the ring today.

HOWELL AND SMITH BOUT.
Via Flint River Wireless.
First Round. — Clark and Hok,-
f hake hands. Clark makes a lead at
Hoke’s disfranchisement and lands
heavily. Hoke returns with a free
puss, misses and falls heavily to his
platform, which Is weak. (Time called
to repair Hoke’s platform.) Both be
ing drenched with FLINT ROCK
GINGER ALE;
Second Round.—Clark hands Hoke
a *50,000 loan under which Hoke stag
gers. Clark follows up with a swift
bunch of negfo appointments. This
proves a Turner (Bishop) in the light.
Hoke loses his head and swings at
Clark with a small R. R. Coach,
which was Intended to be a sleeper.
Hoke breathing hard at tne end of the
second.
Third R und.—Hoke, with a sickly
smile, makes, a lightning jab on
Clark's ribs, which had a political
RING to it. Clark, however, recov
ers, lands on the point oi the jaw with
an epistle. The result was SIBLEY
awful. Hoke went down and was
counted out.
(Hoke recovered consciousness sev
eral hours afterwards with the aid of
an ELECTRIC shock administered by
one Watson, via Western Union.)
