A Negro IOWn.
News scarce.
JAY.

There is an odd little town on
Johnson's Island in the Mississippi
liver just north of Memphis. 1t is a
negro town and is owned by a negro
planter. The Island is eleven miles
in area, and is under the Tennessee
statutes. The town is a taxing dis
trict and not incorporated, JudSOn IS
the name of the place, and 1t named
after the white planter whose son is
the mulatto owner of the place.
The case in which the morganatlc
son won the rich property in contest
ing the will Of the dead planter is
well remembered, and the courts du-
ly allowed him part of The inheritance
since he was the only living issue Of
Judson. 1t is the only negto town
in America in which there is not a
white man. Elmer Judson, It's veal
thy owner allows no white man to
there except on visit. The town
has $50 inhabitants and is well or
ganized, since Judson is highly ed
ucated and progressive man. lie

most of inhabitants are his tenants.

A Queer Building.

The most novel building ever e.
rected on any exposition grounds
will be seen at the Tennessee Cen
tennial when the visitor to that big
show stops at the headquarters of
the COncatenated Order of Hoo
HOOs. The movement has already
been inaugerated and work begun to
erect a building on the grounds
where the followers of the Great
Black Cat can meet their brethren
and where the beautiful doctrines of
the order can be inoulcated. This
building is to be the image of a great
cat, from forty to sixty feet high,
and painted black. In the structure
will be a reading room, restaurant
and assembly room for members Of
the order. Up through one Of the
legs of the cat will run an elevator,
by which the visitor can ascend to
the top and get a view of the
grounds. If the cat should be erect
ed in sitting position the elevator
will run to the top Of the cats head
where an observatory will be con-
structed. This order is composed of
lumber men and men In the various
branches of the lumber and allied
branches, a few newspaper men and
very few other selected and fortu-
nate individuals, and as requisite of
membership is that the candidate
must be IN business for himself and
not an employee the order represents
many millions OF dollars. 1t will be
the first Hoo Hoo headquarters ever
erected and all the materials and
money can be raised without trouble

South Pittsburg Stove Co.

CHI ttanooga, Oct. 3O.-The pro-
perty of the South Pittsburg Stove
Company was sold at auction to-day
by the Nashville Banking and Trust
Company, trustee. The bidding was

self and a number of others, his as
sociates being chiefly Nashville and
Chattanooga parties; who held
$51, 600 OF the $4,000 outstanding
bonds of the concern.
COL Shook stopped in this city to-
night, but proceeds to Birmingham
in the morning. The company e.
rected an immense plant a few years
since, with 2 capacity of 10000
stoves a year, and fitted it with the
latest improved machinery, which is
still in good repair. The outlay on
the plant was about $25O,OOO. Col.
Shook says that they have not decid-
ed whether to operate the works or
not, but he found it in such a condi-
ton that the manufacture of stoves
could begin at once.
This company suffered series of
misfOrtunes that would have discour.

TENNESSEE EXHIBIT.

There are very few goods exhibit
ed in the line of textile from any but
Southern States. One Of the best
probably the very best-exhibit is
to be seen comes from Tennessee.
1t is that Of the Phoenix Cotton Mills
of Nashville. The goods shown are
tlcI<ings, towels, pIaids, denims in
plain and fancy weaves, cheyiOts,
gingham, colored shirting, draperies
and imitation of hair cloth.
The Phoenix people showed some
judgementin making a good display
while they were about (which is
is marked contrast with the action Of
several other concerns represented
here. One tactory-and that one Of
the most EXTENSIVE in the South-has
three pieces of goods in its exhibit,
and they are the most ordinary goods
that this factory turns out.
In the majority of instances, there
is little attention given to the ar
rangement of exhibits; goods are
piled around in bolts, with no atten-
ton to affect. This is another mis-
take the Phoenix Cotton Mills has
avoided. Its exhibit is SO arranged
that every style Of goods shows to its
best advantage. Its space in the AL
ALBANIA building Tennessee has nc
building on the grounds is fitted up
as little drawing room and every
article in it is made to display the
company's goods. The carpet is
made from their own yarns; the walls
are covered with goods stamp
ed in excellent imitation of fine wal
paper; the porheres are of demir
which shows a different surface anC
different colors on each side; thu
furniture is upholstered with imita

Annual Meeting of the Hutchinson
Plantation Company Recently.


The Hutchinson Sugar Planta-
ton Company held its annual
meeting on the 18th, when 81, 900
shares were represented out of the
$4,000 shares in which the capital
is divided, says a late exchange.
Directors were elected as follows ::
Claus Spreckels (president), John
A. Brock, Nicholas Ohlandt, NJ.
Ehrman and Leon Sloss. z. H.
Sheldon was continued as secretary
and J. D. Spreckels & Bros. treas
urers. The company has $4,000
acres at Kau, Hawaii, Of which
5000 acres are devoted to the rails
ing Of sugar cane and the remainder
to the pasturage of 5000 head of
cattle and 500 head of horses and
mules. Though the season at the
Islands was the dryest in five
years the plantation yielded about
5000 tons sugar. Unfortunately
the price received was unpreced-
emily low still with all these draw
backs the company reports $50, 900
cash on hand and $4,000 in sugar
after all bills have been paid. A
dividend of Is cents per share was
paid in April, the first since Sep
TENDER, 1892. Another dividend of

National Cane Shredder
(PATENTED UNDER THE LAWS or
THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS

Mr.. John A. Scott, Manager
of the Hilo Sugar Company
gives the following wonderful
record of the working of the
NATIONAL CANE SHRED
DER, which was erected by
their works at the commence
ment of the crop just har-
vested:
During the past week the
Hilo Sugar COmpany's mill ex-
ceeded any of it's former
records by closing the 1875
hours grinding with an output
of 30O4 tons. This is fully 10
per cent. more than the best
work of former years.
"The three roller mill being
26 in. by 81 in. and the two
roller mill 80 in. by 60 in. The
first mill doing this amount of
work in an efficient manner
and with great ease, compared
with work on whole cane,
owing to thorough preparation
of the cane by the National
Cane Shredder, recently cree
ted by the Company. And
by it's use the extrac-
ton has been increased from
8 per cent. to 5per cent. on all
kinds of cane, and in some
cases 80 per cent. has been
reached; the average being Is
to 78 per cent, according to
quality.
81 continue to find the
megass from shredded cane
better fuel than from whole
cane.
"The shredder has been
working day and night for
seven months and has given
me entire satisfaction, having
shredded during that time
about seventy thousand tons
of cane, and a large part. of it
being hard ratoOns.
"The shredder and engine
require very little care or
attention"

Chicago Change.

Chicago, Sept. 6,-In an article in the North American Review, Henry Farquhar, assistant statistician of the agricultural de- partment. estimated the two crops (winter and spring) of wheat at 900 bushels. The article was discovered by some studious individual of the Chicago Board of Trade about noon today and when 1t had been fully circulated on the floor prices lost what little strength they had previously. The receipts at the northwest led in the im- proSement at the start, the weak feeling being shown and prices starting In at a loss of about 1aq&c from the close of yesterday. That they did not decline further was due to the fact that extensive sales of puts were made yesterday afternoon and the holders of those privileges were interested in snap ping tip their profits. Later in the morning the strength which developed in corn led to some covering of short wheat and rally resulted, but the weakness mentioned above was the final outcome of the days varia- tons of tone and feeling. December wheat opened from 60A to 60c, sold between 6O9sm 60as and 595sc, closing at 597sc, 7sc under yes- fairly, steady at the decline.
 Corn-Not much interest developed in corn early.s Approaching noon, however, offer ingsb became somewhat light and the demand a little better. Several of the larger com mission houses assumed a rather aggressive attitude and with comparative ease forced the market higher. Shorts of the nervous sort covered and for time it seemed as though there would be rally of some i'm portance. No particular reason could be given for the change of front and before the close the strength oozed out. prices dropping Dack to almost yesterday cloSlnB figures May corn opened at 29q291sc, ad- vanced to 30ls sq3OAc, closing at 29%4 129zsc. E @ke higher than yesterday. The bulk of the sales of cash corn were made at from yesterday's prices to 1sGAc higher. the nominal close being with the advance men, tioned
 Oats-~Much of todays trade in oats con- sisted of covering by shorts, the same houses that we're identified with yesterdays opera tions being again prominent. A steady, firm feeling w4s in evidence most of the session. Corn Threw some of its surplus strength in- to this grain. May oats closed Ac higher than yesterday. Cash oats ruled 144Rc per bushel higher.
 Proyislons-Products was dead issue during most of the session. There was noth- dng of sufficient value either in the news of business at any time to rouse 1t from the moribuhd state into which 1t had fallen; Hogs we're higher and that fact furnished the only. plausible, excuse for firmness at at the opening The dullness permitted steadi- ness to continue throughout the day. At the close October pork was 15 cents higher thaI1 yesterday, October lard 212c higher and October ribs 21ac higher.
 The domestic and foreign markets were quietsand firm.
 Thesleading futures ranged as follows.
