THE BAGGINa CONTROVERSY.
An Important Letter From Bremen,
Germany.


Germany.
From the Nelc Orleans PicGyune.
The following translation of a letter, re-
Gently received from the Breme Cotton Ex-
change, is il response to the CIRCULAR of the
New Orleans exchange, issued in the latter
part of May last, declaring in favor Of an
equitable adjustment of the bagging ques-
ton, 30 as to afford proper opportu Iity fer
competition of the different fabrics for COW
erlng cotton bales, without prejudics to
buyer or seller of the staple. 1t is
OF special interest in view Of the ap-
preaching convention of American ex
hanges:
To the Netg Orleans Cotton Exchange:
GENTLENEN-I beg to acknowledge receipt of
your valued favor of 23d NAV inclOsing your
circular, entitled Cotton Bagging" the con
tents OF which have had careful attention.
Inc committee OF the Bremen Cotton Ex-
change has no objection to present to the pro
posed Introduction of a new covering for cotton
DaleS made OF cotton itself, provided, that
thereby, through the adoption of heavier stuff
bagglng may be secured which will completely
cover the bale and, besides protecting the cotton
against country damage, decrease the risk from
nre, an end which is unquestionably deSira ole.
Last season several styles of bagging were
uSeu, the character OF some of which not
altogether satisfactory, but this committee
does not doubt that you will be successful in
securing a cover which will IN let all require
| menus % ioSdluS uuTdDllIy ana strength. IN
| which case the new covering would be gladly
| welcomed as great improvement.
According to your c)nnun cation the new
| bagging will be over per cant. lighter than the
Old an its Introduction is, therefore, likely to
meet with difficulties, while cotton continues to
| De sold by gross weight without regard to the
| weight of bagging used. II becomes necessary,
therefore, to secure the adoption, as far as pos
slble. OF the actual tare" rule in selling Ameri-
| can cotton.
As long however, as this rule is not generally
| recognized, it would seem advisable in the opin-
| ion of this committee, to max distinction be-
tween the lighter and heavier covering when
offering cotton G. |. F., by. for instance, allow
ing only per cent. for 10 s in weight on the
| cotton covered bales, while deducting per
| cent, as at present, on those wrapped in the
| heavier material now in USE
| AS soon as this committee shall be advised of
the adoption of the proposed changes it will not
| fan TO lay tde matter Immediately before the
| members of the exchange and acquaint you
| promptly of their decision on the subject of
altering or amending the form of contract now
| IN use on the Bremen Cotton Exchange. Very
respectfully, G.. B. BRAUER President.

SAVANNAH, Aug. 90, 1889,
Mr.. S. j. ", WdycrOSS, Ca:
DEAR SIR-Yours OF the 21th to hand and con-
tents noted. In renly. l would say, that when
ever you see fit to send in the order spoken Of
it win have my best attention.
Yes! I have the finest line of Table Luxuries
and Specialtles that 1t is possible to get, and
stock of these goods, such as cannot be found
anywhere in this country, outside of some few
houses in New York city, Boston, Philadelphia,
or Chicago.
vannah, intent upon getting some fine Candy,
and would take the trouble to go to each of the
houses you speak of advertising fine
candies, " were you anything of judge of what
constitutes even good, pure candy, you would
soon come to the conclusion that there are
ONLY TWO houses in Savannah entitled to
your consideration. Everyone in Savannah
knows who that other party is He has Fine
Candies-there is no doubt about that. But in
paying this just tribute to the goods he sells
please understand that do not for a moment
admit that they are one tot better than NINE il
as good. For very many reasons, too, | am in
fnitelv better fixed on Candies than he is
l. The house that supplies me my Candies
has nothing whatever to do with my selling
prices.
?. My Candies do not come in one-pound and
half-pound packages, but l bring them out in
bulk $50 to speak and pack them here to order
In any style and of any kinds wanted 1t is
needless to say that for very many reasons this
means quite difference in my favor in the cost
of Candies.
3. have very extensive line of all kinds of
Candies and CONNECTIONS, while his stock con
sists entirely of few packed specalties of
certain maker,
In conclusion would say that until started
my Candy department it was not possible to
obtain any Good Candies in Savannah except
from this rarity, hence, from necessity all who
wanted Good Candy were obliged to go his
way Now, though, the situation is changed
and almost all who appreciate Fine Candies
flow in cur direction.
these thprafOra T ipL1
would do well to place your Candy orders with
me. Yours truly. j. J. Reilly

Whether the vest be of the same material
as the coat or of white silk or black satin,
it closes with three or four buttons, opens

effect is 70 have the crease of the vest peep

Broadcloths are les, and less used from

their deep. rich lus eress black, make them

this connection it may be noted, as a sug-

an excellent idea TO establish the custom of

PHYSIOLOGY AND HYGIENE.
Notes Ventilation, Vegetarianism and
Sundry Matters of Health and Comfort.

Notes on Ventilation, Vegetarianism and
Sundry Matters of Health and Comfort.
To obtain ventilation by q window, with
out draft to strike the person, direction
to the following effect has been constantly
repeated By hygienists and hysienic publica-
tions, apparently without a suspicion of its
fallacy on she part of the public's instruc-
tors: Fit strip of board into the window
casing at the bottom, under the lower sash,
so as to raise the sash two or thres inches,
and the thin space between the panes, where
the sashes lap over each other, will be open
above and below, affording egress and in
gress to the air in vertical directions, while
the board excludes horizontal draft that
would strike a person near the window.
The objection to this plan is, according to
Sanitary Era, that it is built exactly wrong
eide up, 10 defiance of the law of gravitation,
and will not work Il contemplates the exit
Of the warm and rarefied air of the room
downward through the colder air between
the sashes, and expects the still colder and
heavier air outside to climb upward through
the.lighter inclosed air and tumble over the
top OF the sash into the room The amount
of air exchanged between outside and inside
in this way will be hardly perceptible unless
a strong breeze blows against the window
The way to get ventilation through this in
terspace, and a truly excellent way, is to push
up the lower sash to the top of the casing, and
pull the upper sash down within few inches
of the sill, stopping the gap at the bottom
with the board above mentioned The outer
air will then find a downward entrance, and
the lighter air within will escape upward.

A Vegetarians Experience.

Mr.. John Burroughs, the naturalist and
author, who gave up the use of meat some
three years ago, is quoted as expressing him
self in the following manner, in answer to the
question of what apparent effect the omission
Of meat eating had upon his health: II find l
need less physical exercise" said Mr.. Bur
roughs, that my nerves are much steadier,
and that have far fewer dull, blank, depres-
sing days; in fact, all the functions of my
body are much better performed by abstain
ing from meat. In summer | make very free
use of milk; at other seasons / cannot tonch
it. cat one egg day, usually for break
fast; eat oysters, fish and fowl, oatmeal,
honiny, beans and a great deal Of fruit of all
kinds. When l can get good buttermilk

use of coffee, and think l em greatly the

with which / was afflicted l attributed to
coffee. If I missed my coffee In the morning

Gasoline Stoves for Cookine.

This is the season for the buying and using
of gasoline stoves which stand out promi,
nently among modern appliances for tighten
ing the burdens of housekeeping ir hot
weather. These stoves appear to be growing
rapidly in favor, especially for use in homes
where no servants are kept. One housewife
who has had experience with them says
they rob cooking of its most wearing feat
ure, the intense heat Of kitchen In which
wood or coal stove or range is in use in sum-
mer. Meals are quickly prepared and the
fire can then be at once extinguished-
The importance of care u the use Of gaso-
line as fuel cannot be too strongly empha-
sized, and purchasers should spare no pains
ia learning the nature of this fluid and i'm
pressing upon al in household that care
lessness is not TO be tolerated in the manage
ment of gasoline stove. On the other hand,
it Is only by gross carelesspess and the most
willful refusal to adhere to instructions in the
operation of stoves as now constructed that
an accident Is possible in tieir use.
Most stoves are now so made that it is i'm
possible to FILL them while the burners are
lighted, but If a stove Is sold not so construct
ed the purchaser should never fail to turn
out all burners before filing. With lay down
tanks and other devices it is impossible to
overflow the tank or spill oil on the floor. If
this is done the burners should not be lighted
until the fluid has been wiped UP and doors
and windows opened, and the room thorough
" aired, 80 there should be left in the room
little or no gas from evaporation
As to the cost OF running gasoline stove,
this is in part matter of good management.
If the stove is not lighted until the articles to
be cooked are ready to be put over the fire
and Is promptly extinguished when no longer
needed, much waste of fuel is avoided A
good rule Is never to keep a burner going I'M
less something is cooking over it. OF course
it will often happen that it is desirable TO
lowe he flame when it is soon 10 be used
again rather than TO extinguish it entirely.
In household where prompt meals and sys-
tematic work prevails gasoline need not be an
expensive fuel: at least such is the experience
Of number Of thrifty housewives.

0Yepses Against Good Taste.

While one may, and indeed should, be
handsomely dressed at a fashionable summer
resort, one must be careful to avoid undue
ostentation. Some ladies OF wealth, anxious
to obtain social footing, have failed because
of their offenses against good taste in wearing
toilets that were too striking, as well In
other matters. 1t goes without saying, that
person already within the charmed circle is
allowed more latitude than would be granted
to an outsider. What is only eccentricity in
our friends often appears to us almost q

SOCIAL ETIQUETTE.

A New Field Of Usefulness for the Best
Man at Coming June Weddings.
Though brides have all seasons for their
own always excepting May, the unlucky
month, and Friday, the unlucky day, June,
''the month of roses" might almost be called
also the month of weddings" so popular is
it as a time for entering the matrimonial
state. Nature, In fresh verdure and odorous
blooms, smiles upon the ceremony and may
be expected to furnish pleasant days for the
wedding journey. 1t Is therefore timely to
mention that, while Of late it has been the
custom in some circles to keep secret, even
from the most intimate friends, the destina-
ton Of a bride and groom starting on their
honeymoon, still newer feature has been
instituted recently by putting all such details
in the hands Of the best man. This is an
English fashion, and the idea is that the
young couple should not be asked to concern
themselves with such mundane details as
tickets and trunk checks, and that the best
man should relieve them Of all care on the
subject by teiegraphing ahead for lodgings,
securing seats in the train, looking after the
luggage, and even deciding where they are
to go.
OF course a discreet best man will by judi
cIous and aTfful investigation discover from
the young peopietheir joint predilectionsin the
matter Of places end will not make the mis-
take Of sending them upona sea voyage If
the lady is not good sailor, or Of booking
them for the Yosemite valley when tho young
wife has left the completion of her trousseau
for Paris shopping. IL is taken for granted
that the best man will familarize himself
with the tastes of his principals and the gen
eral outline of their plans before he makes
his decision, but in some cases he has planned
quite independently of these, and the result
has been great success through the very
novelty and unexpectedness of the trip.
When the carriage comes after the reception
and the pair have taken their seats the best
man hands the groom his tickets and checks
and time table with the place of his desti-
nation marked upon it, with the address of
the hotter where rooms have been secured.
This is the first knowledge the two have of
the course and direction OF their journey.
In any case the best man looks after the
luggage and relieves the bridegroom of ali
annoyance and care taking, and no one aaks
the young couple whittier they are fitting.
such question being considered in bad taste.

BOOM RESULTS.

Doleful tales of poverty, suffering
and want come from Los Angeles,
Two years ago all eyes were turned in
the direction of the City of the Angels
and good many feet also moved in
that direction. Extra trains of cars
were daily running there from the
east, and the transportation facilities
of the railway companies were taxed
to the utmost to carry the people who
wanted to go thither, There was a
rboom" on and many feared they
would not reach the place in time to
get any of the climate or before the
fruit was gone. Men, women and
children walked the streets at night,
