The Bessonette Cotton Bale.

A man of the name of Bessonette,
of Tenn pie, Texas, has invented pro-
cess Of COMPRISING cotton, which, it
is estimated, will save to the south
s32, ,O00,OO0 annually. Imagine, if
YOU please, cotton bale so dense and
so we'll covered that a fire may be ouilt
upon it without causing calculable
damage; also imagine bale so packed
as to occupy much less room than an
ordinary compressed bale, yet not
need any ties to keep it in shape. I'm
agine further bale which contains no
moisture, noair and nothing but cot
ton, so compact as to be like block
of hard wood into which nails can
be driven the same as it were wood.
The cotton, according to the Besso-
nette process, is ginned into bats,
wound on iron spindles, pressed down
upon the spindle bya revolving cylln-
der with any required pressure, and
hen wrapped with cotton duck, some
thing after the style of the wrapping
of a cigar. Cotton duck cups are
placed over the ends of the cylinder Of
cotton, after the spindle is withdrawn
and strands of wire passed around the
ends of the cylinder hold the cups in
place. No iron bands are used, as the
way the cotton batting is wound on
the spindle retains the full force of the
compressage. The duck is to protect
the outside of the cylinder of cotton
from dirt.-Tuscaloosa (Cal.) Times

The limited States Senate.

It is not probable that the federal
senate will be reorganized at the open
ing of the next session Of Congress.
No party is in control of that body
and reorganization can be effected
only by the cooperation of the Re
publicans and Populists. The Senate
now contains 40 Republicans, 80 Dem
ocrats. Populists and 3 non-descripts.
The latter are Jones and Stewart, the
Nevada senators. It is impossible to
classify them except as silver senators.
Both were regular Republicans until
a few years ago, but they now repre-
sent a Populist state and stand for
nothing but the idea of free and un-
limited silver coinage. Even if they
should 60 into the Republican caucus
it will number but A, just exactly half
the Senate, and would still be short one
vote in any effort to reorganize the
senate. There has been some talk Of
a combination between the Republl-
cans and Populists for the purpose of
reorganizing the senate, but some OF
the most influential Republican sena-
tors are opposed to any such scheme.
When the senator's from Utah are ad-
mi:ted the Republicans will probably
reoreanize the Senate, but hardly be-
fore.

ing committee done away with for the
next few days. It was voted down.
The article on finance and taxation
was taken up and went to its third
reading.
There was determined effort to get
in a provision to allow the Legislature
to authorize any county or township
to tax itself to aid railroads, as hereto
fore, but it it was voted down.
An ordinance was presented provid,
ing for the payment of the interest on
the public debt due on January /.
An ordinance was also presented
authorizing the appropriation of $780,
900, if so much be necessary, to defray
the expenses of the convention, and
permitting the State treasurer to bor-
row whatever he might need, the Leg
islature being required to make pro-
vision for its payment.
The article on judicial department
was next taken up and the fight of the
night was on the section relating to
the composition Of the supreme court.
The committee had recommended
four justices.
An amendment was offered by Mr..
Ragsdale to leave the court as it now
is, with three justices.
After long debate Mr.. Ragsdale's
amendment was killed by a vote of
Is to 40.
The convention adjourned at a late
hour without taking further action on
the matter.
Twenty-eight members have fled
protest against the action of the con-
vention in turning the business over
to steering committee.

Murder His Wife?

ASHLAND, Ky, Nov. 21.-The dead
body of Mrs. James Dewitt was found
in the wood, six miles beyond Gray
son last night with shawl tied tightly
around herthroat and face, and marks
Of choking and beating plainly visible.
She disappeared last Thursday even
ing, after visiting her husband at his
boarding house near her mothers
home. The couple have been living
apart for some time. Her husband as
sisted in the search for her and was with
the party that found the body. Just
before the discovery he complained of
having chill and shook so, that the
search was delayed for some time.
Dewitt has been arrested charged with
the murder. He protests his inno-
cence and claims his wife committed
suicide. Excitement is intense, and
if he is held for the crime he may be
lynched.

SAVANNAH, November 2l.-A little
negro child was drowned here yester-

old. The mother was at work in the
ward. She had left her little one
asleep in the bed, expecting it to re-

floor by the bed was an ordinary wa
terbucket, containing about three
quarts of soap-sud. The little one
awoke and fell out of the bed, land
ing on its head in the bucket.
When the mother returned to

quite dead, the baby having
drowned before the mother reached it.

No More Bonds.

A Washington letter says not an
other bond will be issued by the ad-
ministration, until the Republican
Congress has an opportunity to extri-
cate the Treasury from the embarrass-
ment into which it was forced by re-
publican legislation. This can be &C
cepted as absolutely authentic, even
should the demand for gold become
much greater than it has been for the
last few days. It may not be true
that Republicans are trying to force
another bond issue before Congress
meets, but it is true that they would
be glad to see one,-a big one-as 1t
would at the same time relieve them
Of the responsibility of providing for
the needs of the Treasury and furnish
them with a new peg upon which to
hsng fresh abuse OF the administration.
1t is not subject for smiles, but it
would not be strange if President
Cleveland INDUCES in few grim
smiles as he pens that portion of his
message to Congress calling attention
to the needs of the Treasury. If such
language were permissible IL so digni-
fed a document as a Presidents mes
sage, he might be imagined as writing:
Your party put the Treasury in
hole; now the country expects you to
at least lend helping hand towards
pulling it out.
