ard II. Edmonds, editor of the
Mannfact Rec I'd of Baltimore,
said that never before was there
such general prosperity throughout
the whole Industrial lite Of the South
as at present. SoutheTn cotton mill
business is expanding rapidly, and
over l, 900 coo spindieS, represens
ting upwards of $4,000 900 of new
capital. are now being added 10 the
number already operating in tue
South. 10 the Development of
iron and coal properties and The
building of steel works and k bred
enterprises $4,000, 900 of new
money from the North is now go
ing INTO the South. The building Of
new steam railroads and the i'm
prOvement of cid ones and the pur,
chase and Development of stree t
railway system over 100000, 600
of new productive capital for the
South; s., 800. 900 is being spent on
new cettonseed oil mills, vast tracts
of timber lAud, costing in the ag-
gregate some millions of dollars,
are being purchased, while MINOR
Industries are nearly all sharing IN
this general advance,
At least 5000 900, 900 of new mon-
ey, most of it from the North and
West, are now being added to the
South's employment and wealth
making capital in these various
railroad, cotton, iron, lumber anC
smaller Industrial interests. More,
over, the South itself is steadily in
creaslng its OWE surplus capital
which is being turned into produc-
tive enterprises. These vast ir
vestments are worthy of our careful
study. They indicate the conf
dence of the moneyed people of thu
world in the South,s vast natura
resources, buff we of the Soutt
are wise the magnitude of these
Investments, will be vastly exceed
ed in the future. 1t is an easily
demonstIabIe fact that where We
corporations and manufactures are
are most numerous there the pros
perily of agricultural interests anC
of all classes of the people Is tht
greatest. If we of the South woulC
reap the fun harvest of our natnra
advantages, turn our Villages inc
prosperous towns and our towns
into great cities and create employ
ment for everybody, we must give
every possible encouragement t
capital and to the great corpora
tons which are rapidly pushing
America to the front in the worlds
struggle for commercial, industrial
and financial supremacy.
Our country is fast becoming the
dominating power in the worlds
business affairs, but how great 6
share the South shall win in this
coDtest-the most stupendous and
VIDE reaching in its influence which
the human race has ever known
since modern civilization begun
must depend upon whether we join
forces with the leaders in this great
work, or whether we continue, as sc
often in the past, to ally ourselves
with the forces that tend to retard
development through the work of
political demagogues seeking their
own profit. For two years we have
been on rising tide of prosperity,
and unless political agitation
against sound money and business
interests become acute, we may look
for a continuance of the great ac'
tivity which is fast giving the South
a position of world wide Influence

What Happened to Jones


 Two hours and a half of solid fun-two hours and a half of farce comedy, abound ing in bright lines and comical situations comedy so HberaIly punctuated by the laughs of uhe audience that it is almost a mass of punctuation marks, and that's What Happened to Jones'" This farce, by George H. Brcadhurst, is said to be a most pleasing surprise. When Jones ar riyes on the scene and the things com naence happening to him, they happen so fast and in so many unexpected ways that ones sides ache with laughter. Here is a man with the uncommon cognomen of Jones, Just ones," as he says. He and the master of a certain residence, together with a young man affianced to the master S daughter get into scrape owing to the Fact that they went to prize f2't. The three of them escape tine police and seek refuge in the house of Goodly. The latter's brother, who is a bishop, is expected from Australia, and a suit of new clothes has just come. In order to hide his identity Jones, with the consent of Goodly and his prospective Son-in-law, dons the clerical garments and impersonates the bishop taking all the liberties of relative. Then the real bishop arrives on the scene, and some more things happen to Jones. Jones is MT. George w. Larson, we'll known in comedy parts. He has all the nerve and re- sourcefulness of the American drummer, and just a little more. Miss Anita Bridges, as Cissy the girl without any romance in iner makeup, who has been out in San Francisco, and knows thing or two, and does not object to real fun, is what the men most elegantly and expressively call a 'orick.' Cissy is a girl as true as steel, but without any yellow-back novel senti- ment, and that's the kind of girl that hap pens to fall to Jones' lot in the play. The hilarious farce will be the attraction at O'Bren's opera house on next Thursday night.

The young commedienne, Corinne, in the frolicsome and merry creation of Edgar Smith and Louis De Lange, "Ihe Little Host" is tine attraction announced for night and matinee Corinne is we'll known throughout the entire country and particu- iarly So in this section, as being a sprightly bright little woman of talent. Corinne has had the good fortune to score a continued round of successes since her first appear ance upon the stage; but these successes have been made in a field unlike the one dn which he is now brought before the pub lie, and the character assumed by her in 1.-The Little Host' is totally unlike any thing previously attempted by her. The att mosphere by which she is now surrounded partakes more of the nature of comedy ex- travaganza. The company which has been organized Ito support Corinne is said to be in every way a most capable one, embrace ing, as it does, some of the cleverest art 1sts in the theatrical profession including R. E. Graham, William Pruette, John J. Rafael, Louise De Lange Arthur Villars. Ruth White, Genevieve Reynolds, Natalia Olcott, Emily Francis and others. Clarence Rogerson is the musical director of the or sani2ation, and under his leadership the in- cidental music, supplied by w. E. Francis, will receive proper interpretation.

moist loans of at least moderate fer
tility and makes most of it's growth in
the fall and early spring.
The seed should be sown in late sum-

pounds per acre on we'll prepared

with other crops, frequent practice
being to SOW with corn, potatoes, and
like crops at or after the last cultiva-
ton. The seed may also be sown in
the spring, but the results are not as
satisfactory as when sown as above
stated.
Crimson clover has high feeding
and ferti1izing value and is one of the
