One of the most convenient articles of
household equipment is an iron heating
furnace. It is clean; saves time and trouble
and insures a hot fire all the time.
It does away with stooping over the grate
or running to the kitchen every time you want
a hot iron. It is light and can be carried to
any room in the house. 85c to $1.35 each.

NEW ORLEANS COTTON LETTER
iBy Wire to Clark & Go.)
Now Orleans, Marfh 6.—The ease
with which prices declined In the for
eign market was directly traceable to
the liquidation of some long commit
ments and options lost six points from
Saturday’s close. The continued ex
cellence of spot transactions is again
evident by sales of 12,000 hales at a
decline of two points.
The lower opening In our own mar
ket Is mostly sympathetic In charac
ter, ns Liverpool had failed to do her
full share in ''meeting expectations.
The undertone ruled firm throughout,
but, there being no speculative Interest
n n tic on bio, a rather limited amount of
business was done. The continued ab
sence of good trade filterings of spot
cotton In the face of a steady demand
for such types Is a peculiar situation^
which la causing some little nervous
ness In the ranks of importers who
have committments to fulfill.
The pnst week weather - conditions
have been more favorable than other-
wtae for farm work, although In some
localities progress had boon retarded
through excessive moisture. Fore
casts for today nnd tomorrow are
rather indicative of further ruins and
unfavorable weather generally, which
should oxevt some temporary Influence
upon market prices, ns the trade
soenm to display more imd more sensi
tiveness to reports from tills source
than to other momentary causes. Tile
lack of speculative Interest, and the
consequent narrow range in values,
have caused scalping conditions to ex
ist for so lengthy i, period that only
a new order of tilings of a drastic na
ture can occur to awaken the present
Port receipts were 12,000 against
29,000 last year!
Preparation for the new crop aver
age about two weeks late throughout
the belt.
Havre cables: French spinners
neglecting poqrer grades, but are
strong bidders for middling and up,
This lias been the mildest winter In
twenty years. It is said by some that
we have not had enough cold weather

THE ISLAND OF FIRE-
Javn’N Wonderful Lnlce of Bolling
Mini nnd Slime.
Tbo greatest natural wonder In Java,
If riot In tho entire world, is tho justly
celebrated Gheko Knuidka Gumbo, or
Home of the Hot Devils, known to the
world as the Island of Fire. This geo
logical singularity is really a lake o(
boiling mud situated at about the cen
ter of the plalus of Grobogana and Is
called an island because tho great em
erald sea of vegetation which surrounds
It gives it that appearance. The island
is about two miles In circumference
nnd Is situated at a distance of almost
exactly fifty miles from Solo. Near the
center of this geological freak immense
columns of soft hot mud may be seen
continually rising and falling like great
timbers thrust through the boiling sub
stratum by giant bands and then, again
quickly withdrawn. Besides the phe
nomenon of boiling mud columns there
are Scores of gigantic bubbles of hot
slime that till up like huge balloons and
keep up a series of constant explosions,
the Intensity of the detonations vary
ing with the size of the bubble. In
times past, so the Javanese authorities
say. there was a tall, spirelike column
of baked mud on the west side of the
lake which constantly belched a pure
stream of cold water, but this has long
been obliterated, and everything is now
a soothing mass of bubbling mud and
slime, a marvel to the visitors who
come from great distances to see It.
