fSharkey Tribune.1
Messrs. Jno. Heaney and s. s. Boyce
Ill.,, were IN town first OF the week,
vesllgratlon tho adaptability of this
buntry 10 the cultivation Of hemp.
They have been engaged In that busi.
ness In Illinoise, but owing to the
droughts there, II is not as profitable
as they believe II would prove In this
country. The l. G. Railway Co, fur
nished them money to experiment with
II near Shelby, this State, and notwith-
standing the dry weather there this
spring, the result is very satisfactory.
These gentlemen were very favcrably
Impressed with this section, aud be-
lieye it even more suited to hemp cul-
ture than where they tried 1t in Boil.
ivar county. The farmers should
arouse themselves to an interest 10
this matter, and see that nothing be
neglected in giving II a thorough
test.
The farmers of our country can
hardly be deluded any longer with
tho hope that cotton alone will cveI
again be profitable product, and II
Is already late for them to arouse from
their state of apathy, and begin to dc
something.
According to these gentlemen, hemp
can be marketed at cost OF $40 OF
500 per acre an acre will yield a ton
that will sell for $40, leaving profit
Of $50 per acre. Probably that sounds
too good to be true. Then divide II
In half and you still have a profit tal
In excess OF that realized on cotton. Il
hemp eau be produced here Of q rea
sonable profit, 1t would open up q new
field ofindustry.

The Cotton situation.

The New York Commercial Bulle-
tin of Sept. IL says:
The narrow boundaries Of spscula-
tive feeling remain as a very marked
feature of the situation. II is COLI
staptly beng shown IN the fact that
fluctuations of less than 10 points ex-
haust all The vitality there may be In
either an upward or downward turn,
and even tho room scalpers aud gcner-
al run of small traders complain Of the
rare chances presented for getting a
profitable deal. The apathy Is largely
due to uncertainty in regard TO the
probable manner In which tho incom-
Ing supply will be handled by consum-
ers. Whatever may be developed
later in the season, current feeling
holds largely to the opinion of large
crop from the present stand ofthe cot
ton plant, but opinion has not yet cry
stallized upon the changes for demand
from those who must be depended up
on TO use the supply. Foreign spin
ners are reported to be acting quite
indifferently toward new cotton, and
threatened with labor troubles, and a
similar attitude IL attributed toward
our own spinners, some Of whom have
the labor troubles on hand, the great
err animation Is need on both sides OF
tho water among manufacturers to IN
sure faith In cotton. With any pro-
nounced evidence Of change In the
direction indicated there Is reason TO
believe the speculative market would
harden promptly. as many operators
who are willing to admit the probsbil-
ity of an extensive yield commence to
entertain an idear that 1t is fairly well
discounted in ruling prices, and some
thing like normal consumption, they
contend, would stimulate investment
Since the slight slump occaslonod BY
the bureau report the roundup Of
presented features has apparently fav-
ored the bulls.

The Nina, OF Memphis, Tenn, with
Captain Little at the helm, took = party
OF excursionists down the Mississippi
on Sunday for days outing. The
Nina, due to the errors Of ubuiqui-
tous reporter, was termed the Lady
Emmet In our last issue, and was so
named wholly without the knowledge
of the captain or any Of the employees Of
the trim little craft.
The party was landed at Vaucluse,
one Of the many magnificent and fertile
plantations Of The Delta owned and op-
Grated by Mr.. George Read.
Mr., Read greeted the party at the
landing, and they were conveyed by
rail to Lake Chicot, where his magnifi-
cent steamer Alice, named after his
lovable and entertaining daughter, was
lying at the landing to convey the ex-
cursionists around the lake.
Lake Chicot is body Of water of
scenic grandeur: the innumerable fishes
of such species as the striped bass, black
bass, black perch. google eye perch,
sun fish, blue catfish, and many other
varieties OF the piscatorial tribe abound
in profusion, and in their play cast
their silvery sheen In many peculiar
attitudes In the reflections Of the suns
rays on the placid, pure, deep blue
waters Of one OF the grandest. most ma
iestic lakes OF the whole universe.
Whilst the bow of Mr.. Reads palatial
steamer, with his ten year old son,
Cleveland, at the wheel, parts the
waters OF this grand inland water
course, no lovers Of natures landscape
can but be enthused by this kaleld0-
scopic view, blending the forest with
the meadow, the cotton fields with the
planters castellic home, and the more
modest domieile of the plantation negro.
When the town, Lake Village. was
reached-which Is likened unto what
Washington Irving depicts as Sleepy
Hollow-all the vicissitudes of plan
ter's grandeur OF hospitable home life
present themselves to only the casual
observer, while those who would desire
to appease taste for romantic interests
in humankind could securein this staid
old village character sketches that a
Dickens would not desplse.
There could be no truer vivifying
of the Southern planter Of old than Mr..
George Read, and no more hospitality
could be extended anywhere than Is
meted out at Rossmere, his beautiful
country residence.

A NOBLE TRIBUTE
Paid to Mr.. Nicpi BY His Colleague Mr.
HARDWOOD OF this city.


Whom tho election Of judges was pro-
ceeded with in the House OF Delegates
Yesterday. Mr. Harwood. OF this city dis
tinguished himself as one OF the chahl-
mons of Mr.. Charles T.. Nicol, Oh frlnee
William. whose nomination for circuit
Judge in the Eleventh judicial district
he seconded. Mr.. Harwood said.
Il would not feel that l would be doing

say a word in commentator OF my col
legue and friend Hon. Charles T.. J,
in seconding his nomination FOR JUDI OF
the Eleventh circuit.
Eighteen years ago | knew him as
student at Richmond College. and no man
was more beloved and honOred by pro-
fessor and student alike. Many years
have passed. but the mans high character
studious habits. and Christian conduct
made such impressions upon me as time
and absence can never Obliyiate from the
brightest pages Of golden recollecuons-
pardon me for citing an incident In
the life Of Charles T.. Nicol. which shows
his high conception Of what he beheNes
TO be right. II was the custom among
the students In moderate circumstances
TO contribute from So TO s. per month to
the Mess" fund. a committee was Sc
lected from the students 10 purchase
supplies. such as groceries. employ SER
wants. etc. Charles T.. Nicol was mem
Der Of this committee. At the close of
the session some Of the students were
unable TO pay their board. and conse-
auently bill of $50 due one Of our
grocers remained unpaid.
Charles l.. Ncol was no more re-
sponsible for the payment Of this indebt-
edness than one Of you. yet five years
after leaving college he sent his individ-
ual check for principal and interest. aS-
gregating SIS. This is a small matter but
il shows the high character Of the
man.
Charles l.. Nicol is honored and re-
spected by his people, and has greatly
ondeared himself by consulting their
needs and remaining In touch with their
interests When hard work was TO be
done or when there was demand for
bold action. he has always proven equal
10 the occasion. Like Snowdan's Knight
in SCOTS Lady of the Lake he goes
out among his constituents and gathers
their needs and wants from actual OBJ
servation.
