From the station we drove through a
staring white suburb, past the we'll
whitewashed walls of the bull ring, to
the Fonda de Oriente. 1t was still early
in the afternoon, the sun fierce, the
light blinding-the Arur when all sum-
mer we had been sleeping and dreaming
in the Alhambra's halls and the Gen.
eralife's gardens. Remembering their
loneliness, and hoping for new beauty
like it, we could not stay in the dull
hotel bedroom, though with its tiled
floor it was fairly cool and clean, and
we went out into the town. Silence
hung over it like pail. Every winding
street in the labyrinth beyond the Paseo
was empty; not a living creature in
sight, only once in awhile beggar,
who rushed from some spot of shade to
assail us. All the low, white houses,
with their iron barred windows, were
tight shut. The place was abandoned and
desolate, its silence unbroken by sound
of toll or traffic.
Was this really the Cordova of Musa
and Abderrahman, the Cordova once
called the Bagdad or Damascus of the
west, whose streetswere ever alive with
the clang of arms, the pomp of process
sions, the clatter of students going to
and from the schools, whose name was
a synonym for wealth and power, for
culture and industry-the world famous
town with its scientists and merchants
and women doctors? 1t was as if a
plague had fallen suddenly upon the
town and left not one man, woman, or
child to tell the tale. Elizabeth r.
Pennell in Century.

One Pound of Coal on a Steamship.

Vic VI eOdi oh -
The value of a pound of coal at diff
ferent epochs of steamship evolution, as
given by Mr.. A. j. McGinnis, president
of the Liverpool Engineering society,
has been as follows: In 1910 pound of
coal propelled displacement weight of
.57S ton knots; but the earning weight
was only one-tenth of this, 80 per cent
of the displacement representing the
hull, machinery and fuel. In 1850, with
iron vessels and the screw propeller, a
displacement weight of 6 ton was pro-
PEELED 9 knots by pound of coal; but
the proportion Of cargo had risen to 81
per cent, or lie ton. In 1860, with
higher boiler pressure and the surface
condenser, SO ton displacement was
propelled 10 knots, and the cargo was
33 per cent, or .27 ton. In 1870, after
the compound engine had come into
use, J.. s tons displacement was propelled
10 knots, and here the cargo formed so
per cent of the whole, being g ton. In
1885 there were two classes of freight
boats-the tramp" propelled ga tons
displacement s knots, with 60 per cent,
or 2 tons of cargo; at the same time the
enormous cargo steamers of the north
Atlantic were driving displacement of
3.14 tons IL knots, with 55 per cent, or
IL tons of cargo. On the modern ex-
press passenger steamers the cargo
weight is down to .09 ton per pound of
coal. Railroad Gazette.

COTTON DECLINES.

New York, Oct. S.-The cotton mar

cable and heavy movements at the

Tho democratic ticket was elected by
twice tho majority ever before pollod in
