Russia Raises Cotton.

st Petersburg, Oct 3O.-Om-
c!aI reports show that the area
under cotton cultivation IN Rus
sian Central Asia has increased
30 per cent this year The crop
is estimated at $500, 200 pood,
or half the Russian requirements,
whereas previously only 5000,
600 pood had been procured from
Russian possessions. This result
is attributed - the increased raw
cotton import duty introduced
last winter. The situation in the
tton industries is improving.

The Lancastrians who visited
the State fair felt very proud of
the exhibit of the Lancaster graded
school. They say it was the most
compete, and ono Of the most in
t'resting of all the school exhibits.
The State and News and Courier
both speak quite fatteringly of
the exhibit. Here is what they
say: "The Lancaster schools
have very interesting exhibit
also. This was, perhaps, the best
packed Of the exhibit and was ar.
ranged 30 well that it was com
psratively little trouble to display.
1t seemed to some of the Young
ladies' who were displaying it on
the walls the other day that the
teachers at Lancaster must have
rehesrsed the hanging of the vari-
ous drawings, paper figures and
the like before packing them"

MORE IRISH REPARTEE.

Many good stories are told in
legal circles In ireland of encount-
ers between lawyers and judges in
court. John Pbilpot Currab, in the
early days of his struggle at the
bar, appeared in case before
Lord Chancellor Clare, and laid
down some points of law which
did not find favor in the mind of
the judge. "If that be law / may
as we'll burn my books" said Lord
Clare, "Better read them, my
lord, F" replied Curran.-Mew York

ECHO OF SLAVERY TIMES.
Settlement of a Debt In Dallas.
Negro Slave Basis of Trans

Express.
Dallas, Texas, january 6.-An
echo of slavery times was heard in
Dallas today. 1t was the settle
meht of debt contracted in 1860,
in which the sale of negro slave
was the sale of a negro slave was
the basis of the TRANSACTION. In
the days "before the war" the Ne.
Donald and Epperson families were
among the leading planters of the
Red river velley. The head
of the McDonalds of Lamar coun-
ty sold a negro to Col. D. H.
Epperson of Red River county.
Epperson gave a note for $3.50 to
secure payment of the purchase
price. The war between the States
interfered with the business affairs
of the McDonalds and Eppersons.
After the civil war the note was
presented for payment and resisted
on the ground of the abolition of
slavery multiplying the obligation.
The matter got into the courts and
judgment for the face of the note
and interest was awarded. The
case got tangled up on appeals and
dragged along until short time
ago, when the Epperson side
agreed to settle with the Me
Donalds, and stop litigation.
Today ex-State Senator Henry
D. Mcdonald, lawyer of Paris,
Tex, representing w. j. Nc
Donald, the holder of the uote, and
who is National bank examiner for
Northern Texas, came to Dallas
and met Joseph NJ. Dickson, law
yer for the Eppersons, and receiv-
ed from Mr.. Dickson $3.50 dollars
cash in exchange for the old note
executed in 1860. This is probably
the last slave that will be paid for
in Texas. Col. EppersOn died in
Rec River county in 1878. Col.
Mcdonald has been dead a nnm.
Der of years. The slave that was
sold died in GAINESVILLE, Tex,
about the time that the civil war
ended.

SYMPATHY FOR
THE AUTHOR

Ordinarily the wrath of au'
thors over typographical errors
in their books is not wholly
justified but we entirely sym
pathlze with the anger of the his
torian who wrote ''the enemy were
armed only with pair of six
FOUNDERS" aud had the pleasure
Of seeing it printed "the enemy
armed only with q pair of suspend
ers." There is a kulss beyond
which patience ceases to be a
virtue.-Harper's Bazaar.
