tttattGs
The cold wave has played many
freaks with the people but none
have been more disappointed with
the weather record than those who
live in the North but have gone to
the South to escape the rigors of
winter. The cold waves have swept
the South as we'll as the North,
have penetrated into Florida and
Louisiana, Georgia and the Caro-
linas. They have destroyed the
oranges in the South and then to
even up the scale and show that
the weather is no respecter Of sect
ions, they have swept down the
Pacific coast and blighted the ora
nge groves of California and Ariz-
ora.
They have crossed the Atlantic
and swept Germany, England,
France, Spain and Italy, and we
may next hear ofthem in India and
the Orient. The only section that
seems to have escaped is that from
which we have expected the biz
card. This is the extreme North
western state Of our country, and
the cities of Puget sound send out
to the frost bitten people ofall the
rest Of the world the cheering in
telligence that the roses are putting
forth their new buds and the far
mers are engaged in their spring
blowing. 1t may be too early for
the people of Washington and Ore
gon to boast Of their escape from
the cold waves but they are sending
out the cheerful notes that are
heard over the frosty wires.
And there is consolation for all
in the balmy spring weather in the
extreme Northwest. The peach
crop Of Delaware may be killed the
apple crop of Michigan blighted
! the oranges of Florida and South
ern California withered and the
Strawberries of the South killed
but Washington and Idaho promise
an abundance of fruit. It may be
a.noyel move to go to Washington
for apples and pears and plums and
berries of all kinds next summer,
but if we have to do it there will
be consolation in the fact that the
country which John G. Calhoun
said was not worth a pinch Of snuff
has come to the relief of Uncle Sam
to prevent his forgetting how apples
and peaches taste. Then we may
also have to turn to the Northwest
and cross the blizzard plains of the
Dakotas and the home Of the ava
lanche in the Rocky mountains to
find our perpetual summer under
the shadow of Mount Tacoma,which
wears perpetual diadem Of snow
and ice. The people of the North
west have long tried to make the
rest of the world believe that they
had the only safe and sure EI Dos
RADIO and when they can boast the
only winter resort still left where
roses bloom while all the remainder
Of the continent is buried in snow
drifts, they are dangerously near

Some of the Citizens of the City un-
satisfied,

E. w. Cummings, the gentleman
who is putting in the water system,
made test of the $50 foot we'll
that is located on the city's lot, in
the rear of the city hall, in the
presence Of a large number of spec
tators, who were very much inter-
ested in the outcome of the test.
After the test was made, consid-
erable dissatisfaction was manifest
ed by many who are of the stolid
opinion that the we'll contains an
ample supply of water, for the pro-
posed system, both for fire and do
mestic purpose, several claiming
that the test was not thorough.
Mr.. Cummings, who is perfectly
indifferent as to the location Of the
watersupply, says the well was CIV
en- a practical, thorough test and
the amount of water was found in
sufficient in quantity. The capa-
city of the well, according to his
test is 15 gallons per minute,
whereas from $50 to 400 gallons
per minute is required for a success

Many have signifed their inten-
ton of seeing that another test is
made Of the supply of water the

sent of the Mayor and council have
been obtained, and that Mr.. Il. R.
Cox, will go to Pendleton this even

placed in an excavation on level

feet the advantage in depth and

BOARD OLE TRADE.

The work that the Board of Trade can
and must do during the next six or twelve
months will do much for Austin's growth
and prosperity. We appeal to every Aus
tin citizen, he he young or old, TO enroll
himself in this army of workers for Aus
tin. Captain Jeitnaker is director in
our Board of Trade. He is also one of
the trustees of the Texas Car Exhibit as
sociation, who are doing grand work for
Texas by their exhibit at the Atlanta ex-
position. The captain says if our Board
of Trade were properly appreciated and
aided he could do Austin world of good
at Atlanta.
San Antonio, Waco, Houston and Gal
weston have doubled, and in few cases
thribblod their members to their boards
of trade, and the advantages of those
cities is daily advertised to thousands.
Let us not fall behind others, but from
now on let us lead. A member of the
Board of Trade will call on you this
week for your application to this honor
able body, having only one object in view,
viz, the advancement of Austin.

EXCITEMENT IN COTTON.
Wide Fluctuations in the New Orleans
Market-Rise in Price.

New Orleans, Sept. 30.-Today wit
messed the greatest excitement of the
season in the cotton market, the 1uctua-
tions being rapid and exceedingly wide
and the sales large, aggregating 175,90O
bales. The trading was principally in
January contracts, the sales of that
month reaching 100000 bales. The fuc-
tuations in December were very wide,
selling at one time at 1920 points above
Saturdays close, afterwards declining 20
points and finally closing at net gain on
the day of II points. The opening was
very irregular with an advance of from
16 points on some months to 20 points on
January.
Liberal realizing sales soon caused IL
decline, but the market promptly alb
sorbed all the cotton offered and gradu-
ally strengthened, closing at net gain Of
16 to IS points.
On the curb after the close prices were
at least points higher. The cause of
the improvement was the advance of
6-64d in Liverpool, which was greater
than expected. This improvement
abroad was due to the circulation of Pres
ident Lane of the Planters association
estimating the crop at 6,500,000 bales.
The advance was also assisted by the
low temperature over portions of the cot
ton belt. The receipts at New Orleans
tomorrow will be 1000 to 5000 bales
against 21 $40 the same date last year
and 1874 the year before last
