TEXAS COTTON CROP.
A Wager That 1t WIFI Not Exceed So.
100000 Bales This Season.

Taylor, Tex, Sept 1J--(SpeciaD-
Now. that very much speculation is be-
ing INDUCED in by spinner buyers Rnd
others in reference to the cotton crop
OF the season of 1886, where Mr..
Neill and Hector Z. Lane are at ouss,
1t might prove interesting to know that
prominent cotton buyer If Taylor yes
terday wagered $1,000 that the cotton
crop of Texas and the Indian Terri tory
this season would not reach 200 ,OO9
bales. This gentleman bases his jlldeS
ment on the shOrtness of the crop, the
late season and decrease in acreage:
which will amount to 35 per cent in
this county. Last season tire merchants
of Taylor imported vast horde Of Mex
lean cotton pickers from San Antonio
and Laredo, paying them railroad ia re
and from 30 to GO cents per 100 pOun DIS
for picking. This season all the pickle rs
needed to gather the crop of Williamson
county can be secured at from 80 to no
cents per 100 pounds.
Farmers are awaiting themselves of the
prices now prevailing and rushing the If
cotton into market.
The shortage will show up later in the
season and late frost is the only So l.
wage for late planting.

CHOLERA IN HONOLULU.
Rumored That 1t Has a Strong Hold
Natives Incensed at Health Officers.

San Francisco, Sept. 14.-Private ad
vices received from Honolulu and pub
lished here today state that the cholera
has secured a stronger hold on the Ha-
waiian islands than the authorities will
admit. The natives are said to be
much incensed at the Honolulu health
officials and do not willingly obey their
orders. The natives not only conceal
new cases from the authorities but de-
cline to use the treatment prescribed and
hide the fatalities resultant from the
epidemic. The natives will not trust
themselves in the hands of the board of
health if they can avoid it, believing that
such treatment means certain death.
Those who come in intimate contact
with them say they are much exercised
over the spread of the disease, which
they ascribe to the unpopular board of
health. 1t is predicted that unless the
disease abates or some change is made in
its management, the natives may revolt
and resort to their favorite remedies for
diseases-riots and incendiarism.
There are physicians in Honolulu who
enjoy the confidence of the natives, but
the doctors are not in favor with the
health board and can take no prominent
part in the suppression of the epidemic.
If put in control these men might do
more than the entire board of health for
they can convince the natives that the
sanitary regulations are for their good
and not a part of white mans plot to
exterminate all Hawaiians.

DE LONE TALKS CUBA.

Washington, Sept. 14.-Senor Dupuy
De Lone Spanish minister to the United
states, today expressed the opinion that
the rebellion i'll Cuba is sure to be crush
ed. 1t is impossible, he added, to say
just when, because of the condition
that exists in the island. The minister
characterizes the methods employed by
the rebels as guerilla warfare and de-
clares that it will be impossible to have
decisive battle under such circum-
stances. A great deal of transformation
he said had been sent out by the rebels.
1t is easy to account for the methods
now employed by the Spanish govern
ment, said the minister, "the climatic
conditions of Cuba are very peculiar.
July, August and September are the
three great generals of the rebels"
1.-Two are dead and the third is fast
dying. These months include the rainy
season in Cuba and the most unhealth.
full for the Spanish troops. 1t is impossi
BILE to carry on successful warfare amidst
pouring rain. But the Spanish govern
ment has been preparing for an active
campaign. The second corps of 25,00C
men have been landed in Cuba.
1T is possible that the active move
ments will not begin until the first o.
October. or some time during that montl
according to the condition of the weather
1t is somtimes asked why troops ar,
now landed in Cuba when they are not t
be called into service for some time. Tn
answer is plain. From the 10th o
September until the Goth of Novembe
is the cyclone season in the West Indie
and there is great difficulty ID trans

hung up somebody who wouhll loan him
child to take to the show. He said:
But the strangest part of it all is that l
was unable to get one. Now, you would
imagine that there would be plenty of
children around anxious to see circus,
AID you would be right; but the supply
did not equal the demand. BY actual
count l went to II of my friends who
have growing boys, and requested that
l might give the little fellows some pleas
ure by taking them. Without a single.
exception they thanked me very much
for my kindness, and they said they were
going to take them themselves. Now,
| feel very foolish going to a circus with
out a child with me, yet l do not know
of anything like better. 1t brings back
the old days when l was in the country
a barefooted boy following the parade,
looking with wonderment at the lone ele-
plant plodding along. The smell of the
sawdust, the cries of the peanut and lem
0nade man are as pleasant to me as the
new-mown hay and singing birds. They
are the chemicals which develop the I'M
seen image which is upon the plate of
memory, and comes forth in all its glory.
But l missed this all, for, thanks to the
| same feeling in the hearts of my father
| friends all the available excuses were
taken up. Do you think l would allow
anyone to think 1 would enjoy such a
| thing as circus? Never!'
The old fellows in town should take
warning from the above and have a kid
already borrowed ere the arrival of the
! New Great Syndicate shows and Paris
hippodrome which is billed to exhibit al

"There is no question in my mind" he
said, that the courts will hold that
pension is a vested right, when the mat
ter is brought to their attention, and it
is my purpose to proceed at once toward
the institution of test case in order to
secure ruling. The suit will be bgonght
in the Federal courts. of course, and as
soon as possible. First, however, |
shall have to consult with the council
of administration and the details must
be settled after they and have met.
This Will take some, little time. but the
matter will be rushed as rapidly as can
be. feel that it is due to the old sol
diers and members of the G. A. r. that
due steps be taken to bring the matter
to an issue and that every means possible
be utilized to secure recognition of the
right by the courts. AS to where the
suit will be brought and as to who the
attorneys may be who will prosecute
the case l cannot say as yet, as l mus
first consult with the council of admins

And the Price of Admission Everywhere is but 90 Gems

here on Friday, October 25. 1t is q
big undertaking to bring 80 big show
SO far, but having finally decided to do
so, it's managing proprietor, Mr.. ]. A.
Bailey, is both honorable and sagacious
enough not to trifle with those whose
patronage he solicits, wherefore, the
whole show will be bought and pre-
scented here. as is the, invariable rule
everywhere, as every railroad contract
for transportation will alone conclusively
show. There is absolutely nothing to
compare with it, and to argue the ques-
ton would be a silly waste of time. 1t
