COTTON DROPS
UNDER CHANGE
Buying Limited, Although
Sellings Not Heavy In
Unsteady Close
NEW YORK, June 29.—Cot
ton was lower today under rcllins
! promoted by a favorable vi?v/ cf
I weather conditions in the south. The
1 offerings were not heavy but buying
was comparatively limited, with Oc
tober contracts selling off to 13 85
i or 13 {joints net lower. They closed
at 18.75 with other months also
i .showing slight raUlc* on covering
and with the general market clos
ing steady at net declines of 9 to EE
I P°ints- ___
The market opened steady at a
decline of 4 to 11 points in response
to the relatively easy Liverpool ca
bles. There iany have been a lit
t tie buying on reports of a disturb
ance along the Texas Gulf coast but
local traders teemed to feel that if
* this should cause rain s in South
Texas, they might be giore brrrfirat
: than otherwise and the market
worked gradually lower.
Private cables attributed the de
. cline in Liverpool to London, local
! and continental liquidation and said
that sales of cotton cloths and yarns
were small with order lists running
down rapidly.
The amount of cotton on shin
board awnit’ng clearance at the
; close of the week was fstima’ed at
61,000 hales against 78.000 last year.

RICH AMERICAN' olDy
FOR AN ENGLISH WIFE
Winifred Black's Comments on the Unusual Offer of Fif*
teen Thousand Dollars a Year “Pin Money"
Which the Girls of Islington Turned Down Flat
By WINIFRED BLACK
Fifteen thousand dollar- a year to spend Just as a nice little personal
allowance: a big house with rugs and curtains, servants and everything,
and & car—a good, big swift car with the right kind of cushions. That's
what a certain ‘ Rich American" announced that he
JggggJK would give any nice little woman in London who
T. * would marry him, leave England and live in the
■1 i Mill United States.
The Rev. Joseph Shepherd of Islington Temple.
I. Itngton, London. A. D. V., R. 8. V. P.-«nd all the
rest of it. is trying—oh, so hard—to help the Rich
American out, and he simply can t do a thing
about it.
Not a thing.
Mr. Shepherd soys that he has made this offer
known to a large—a very, very large—number of
girls in Islington.
And every orfe of them said:
• Just fawncy—wed rather be poor in Islington
than millionaires’ wives in America.”
-.UILLia Lrt me ask you. gentle reader, have you ever been
WINIFRED RACK jn Islington? No? Then you can t realize the full
humor of the situation. Islington. ate:, veal and
ham pie. influenza medicine on the njantel. a penny-in-the-slot gas—
dear, dear!
Well, for one thing, the ladies of Islington probably have very little
idea oi wnat they are ret using.
Their idea of luxury would be.
perhaps, a new art 1 'leum In the
hall and bead portiers In the draw
ing room doors.
Living room, they have never
heard of such a thing, and as for
electric ranges and vacuum clean
ers. and window-washing companies
they’ve never even heard of them
either.
Who do you suppose the Rich
American can be. and why did he
choose Islington for his Happy
Hunting Grounds?
I don’t blame him for wanting an
English wife, but why Islington.
Why not Twlchen'am on the
Thames, or Hants, or Bucks, or
something?
No. I was quite serious about the
English* wife.
If I were a poor man with a small
but r steady income I'd get me an
English wife if I had to throw a(
lasso over her head and carry her1
away on the wildest of wild west
ponies.
If I were a very rich American I’d 1
take the same view of the case
Why not?
English women believe a man;
is something halfway divine—just
because he's a man
A man with an English wife has
a nurse, a guardian, a little girl to
pet, a forgiving woman to neglect.
Oh. yes. if 1 were a man I’d cer
tainly hunt me up an English ’i*fe.
And I’d choose her hats and or
der her gowns and select her friends
for her and have a grand time—if
I were a very poor American or a
very rich American.
If I were an American lawyer, or
doctor. or newspaner man I
wouldn't try the English wife—not
for one week!
English wives who are not very
poor want servants—troops of serv
ants. They don't like to cook, and
they don't like to sweep or make!
their clothes, and as for taking care;
cf their own babies—tut-tut.
I do with I knew who the “Rich
American'' was.
I believe he'll find an English
wife—if he has money enough. And
think of the fun he will have teach
ing her to like ice water and straw
berry shortcake, and may be she
k-.
will teach him to put hot boiled
milk In his coffee Instead of cream
and pretend to like it.
I am all for "hands across the
sea” and "Hearts of Oak' ’—let
see. didn't we used to sing some
thing about the “Bailiff’s Daugh
ter" at Islington? Why doesn't the
"Rich American” hunt up the Bai
liff? I believe he’d make his daugh
ter see reason, be she as beautiful
as a dream and as English as—
Islington.
CLEVELAND. June 29.—(ffwThe
monoplane City of Cleveland, with
a big 13 painted on its fuselage,
cruised above Cleveland tonight as
Pilots Roy L. Mitchell and Byron K.
Newcomb ended the first day of the
monotonous grind which they hope
will bring them a new endurance
flight record for planes refueled in
the air.
