March 2. —The lowest prices for the year upon this crop were touched last Monday morning, since which time there has l>een a gradual but steady advance, until' yesterday evening the market had recov ered some 38 points from the lowest quo tations touched. No doubt a, portion of this advance ts due to the natural reac tion from the severe decline of the last two weeks, bqt the basis of the strength in the market can be distinctly traced to the improvement of trade in Europe, where the English spinnafa have ajrfclu commenced to buy their cotton freely, with every-probability of their continu ing their present rate Of purchase* for soma time to come.

Thus it came‘about that riie funeral of ’the lion tamer was so notable. It took place in the animal Arena. A section of the- great iron cage which shuts off the jH-rforminn space from that reserved for visitors, had been removed, and through this opening the coffin was carried. A bier hud been made of some of the material which is used for tlie lions to do their acts upon, and here laid the dead tamer in the midst of a group of his associate* while the solemn burial Service was read by a local clergyman. Every seal in the vast arena was oc cupied. and .there were hundreds who wanted to got in but could not. On the back row of seats, stretching almost around tlie auditorium were' Indians from the - Sioux exhibit. Each warrior was in paint ami feathers, but their bows Were unstrung, and all carried the'mselves with the quiet dignity "which always marks an Indian when a cere mony is being performed. Near to these were the Indians from the bunks of the Yapui river, and a delegation from the Esquimau village. Half a dozen of the Turkish dancers had come across the South Drive to mingle with tlie crowd at the funeral. A wwupany of South Sea Islander* were there, and a quar-. tette of native Hawaiian singers fur nished the music for the occasion, sing ing in their native tongue words-set- to old, familiar hymns. A big Cossack stood down in front with his shaggy head oveiTopiang all his neighbors. Swarthy Mexicans from the ’41) Mining Camp sat, somlirero in hand, ami heads bowed down, and dark-eyed senoritas shed tear* nf sympathy as ( among the mourners.•• It was an inter esting company of people and such an one as had probably never before as sembled on a similar occhsion. j A band of 50 pieces occupied- a posi tion out of sight of the audience and its music came to_the ears of those -pre- sent in a somewhat mu tiled tone. Bui there were other mttthed^ tone* that fell upon the ears of (bis funeral gather ing during the cxerchius,' which were neither so sweet nor *0 pleasing, but which brought a terrible" reminder ^t what bad ’caused this polyglot assem blage. The cages of the. animais are located uuder the raisi-d seats of the amphitheatre, and the leasts becuinv restless as the hour for their usual j*er- formauee |*isse4 by ami they were not summoned to play their jwrt. The liig lion whose paw had dealt the fatal blow to Thieman. growled and roared at intervals all dunug the clergyman's address, ami when the music of the band suggested to the*q knowing crea ture* that there wa« a crowd in the Arena, they seemed to unite in a chorus of protest and disapproval. Strong men shuddered at the suggestion convey ed by Ttg**e loud mouthing*. Women shed tears and some of them were so over issue with fear and emotion that they pa.sseJ hurriedly out 'of the auditor.uui. It* was a econo that will never be for gotten by those present.* Then came a procession through .the grounds. A cordon of guards occupied the right of line.- Back of them march, 'ed the bund, playing a funeral march* Keeping step to Ibis slow rythm walked the Indians, the Turks, the South Sea Islanders, ami «U the representatives of the different concessions, wjio had turn ed out to honor the memory' of the dead linn tamer.
