The Merchants association of Sar
Francisco, says the Popular Science
Monthly, has been trying the expert
ment of sprinkiins street with sea
water, and finds that such water binds
the dirt together between the paving
stones, SO that when it is dry no loose
dust is formed to be raised by the wind;
that sea water does not dry so quickly
as fresh water, SO that it has been
claimed when salt water has been used
that one load of II is equal to three
loads of fresh water. The salt water
which is deposited on the street alb
serbs moisture from the air during the
night. whereby the street is thoroughly
moist during the early morning and

the cost of only 6 points per month to

opportunity to sell January and

New York, October 1.-THE cotton
market opened steady, with prices 6 to
II points up and showed marked stabil-
:ty pretty much throughout. The bull
action was reinforced by strong Eng
lish cables, vigorous foreign buying and
a more friendly attitude of outside in
v~estors. In addition to this formida-
able array of obstacles, shorts had a
small crop movement, firmer southern
spot markets, and heavy export clear
ances to contend with. Admitting the
possibility of bullish developments in
the south or abroa over Sunday, the
more conservative bears sought cover.
Operations throughout the short ses-
sion We're active with all branches of
h trade represented. During the
first afternoon minutes January had
reached 7.04; March TO and May 7.13.
The market closed steady with prices

GENERAL MERRITT'S REPORT.
Strong Arrangement of Affairs in the
Artillery Branch.

Washington, October 13.-The annual
report of Major General Wesley Mer-
rift, commanding the department Of
the east, with headquarters at Gov
ernor's island, N. Y, was made public
at the war department today. The re-
port is a strong arraignment of the
whole situation in the artillery branch
Of the service, being particularly di-
rected against the ordnance bureau and
incidentally the quartermaster's de-
partment, the latter for failure to fur
nish what General Merritt considers
proper quarters at artillery posts.
General Merritt says that the system
on which the artillery is organized is
wrong, in that the artilleryman, who is
held responsible for the work he has to
do with his guns has no voice in the
making or selection of them, this be-
ing left entirely to the bu-
reau. But he adds hat since the engi-
neer department in the same independ-
ent way furnishes the artilleryman with
his emplacements, and there has been
no fault to find with this portion of the
equipment, there must be something
more than the mere system to blame
for the unsatisfactory condition Of af-
fairs.

During the winter Of 1897 Mr.. James
Reed, one of the leading citizens n
merchants of Clay, Clay county, w.
Va, struck his leg against a cake Of
ice in such a manner as to bruise it
severely. It became very much swollen
and panied him so badly that he could
not walk without the aid Of crutches.
He was treated by physicians, also
used several kinds Of liniment and two
and a half gallons Of whiskey in bath
ing it, but nothing CAV any relief until
he began using Chamberlain's Pain
Balm. This brought almost a complete
cure in a weeks time and he believes
that had he not used this remedy his
leg would have had to be amputated.
