COTTON sPINNERs IN LINE.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 2.-Ata meet
ing of delegates from the Southern
Cotton Spinners' Association in this
city today, which was we'll attended,
the prevailing prices of raw cotton
and spun yarns was discussed with a
committee of the Yarn Merchants
Association, which latter control the
selling on commission of Southern
yarns, as the Spinners' Association
controls sales of the manufactured
goods. A new schedule of prices Of
the products of Southern mills will
be adopted, which will be binding on
practically all Southern mills.
The prices fixed at lastyear's meet
ing when the price of cotton was
81 cents, were No. 80 2-ply warps
1917 cents; at the present price Of
cotton on the same ratio would put
No. warp 2-ply at about 22H cents
per pound and an advance in other
grades prOpOrtionately.

A novelty of the season on Long
Island, which attracted little atten-
ton, is said to have been the mos
quito clubs formed and managed by
women. Each club provided itself
with a number of oil cans and a gen
erous supply of kerosene oil. Wher-
ever a pond, or ditch, or pool was
found, oil was poured on the water.
The kerosene killed the larvae of'the
mosquitoes, so that residents in the
neighbbrhoods where the clubs got
in their good work were able to sit
on their piazzas at night and to sleep
without nets, and to enjoy almost
complete immunity from mosquitoes.

HOBsON's OPINION.
The Kissing Hero Says Dewey Did Not Sink
the Spanish Ships.
Carolina

VIC SpdA4SA SA4PS'
VANCOUVER, B. c., Oct. A.
Dewey did not sink the Spanish YES
sells at Manila, either before or after
breakfast. At least Lieutenant Hob
son, Merrimac Hobson, Hobson, the
hero of a thousand OCCUPATIONS, says
so, and HObsOn ought to know. He
says the hulls of the fleet when the
ships had been raised and taken to
Hong Kong for repairs he superin-
tended the repairs, and says that
these hulls were uninjured below the
water line and that the Spaniards
opened the valves and scuttled
themselves, presumably to save their
ships from falling into the hands of
the the enemy.
"And what in your opininion, he
was asked, "was the direct cause Of
the laundering of the v~essels?"
''Oh, the Spaniards pulled out the
plugs and opened the valves and
sank the ships themselves. Our
shell fire did very little damage"
'.Then they were uninjured below
the water line?"
Very little, we have practically
done them no damage there at all"
Lieutenant Hobson regards the
establishment of Il naval dock yard
on a large scale in the Philippines as
imperatively necessary.

Of 1.-The Story of a Young Man." by
Clifford Howard. It is a story Of
Jesus Christ as a man, and while it
is founded solely upon Scriptural
records, the author says it makes no
pretense of embody1ng all hat is in
the Gospels. The beginning of the
article finds Joseph and Mary at
Bethlehem and in a pleasant style of
narrative tells of their adventures in
going to the city and of the birth of
the Savior, and later of the fight of
the young parents to save the child
from the wrath of Herod. The usual
number of miscellaneous stories as
we'll as matter specially devoted to
women, is to be found in this num-
Der of The Journal.

~pensaries, as Mr.. Kelway sums them
up, are The sale of pure liquors
only, in small quantities only, by
salaried officers only, to respectable
adults only, between the hours Of
sunrise and sunset only, and the
absolute prohibition of drinking on
the premises. Thus treating is done
away with, loafng is done away
with, and the pushing of sales to
further the personal interests of
dealers is done away with. The dis
pensary officers have no interest
whatever in the amount of the sales.
They sell the liquor in quantities,
not less that half pint nor more than
two quarts to a single person in a
single day, upon written and signed
applications recorded in a public
book. No one who signs these ap-
plications, however, is required to
pretend that he desires the liquors
for medicinal purposes. The regu-
lations enforced are merely to pre-
vent sale to disreputable persons, to
minors, or to those who might be
tempted to retail to others elsewhere.
Drug stores are not allowed to sell
liquor except when it is so COM
pounded with other drugs as to be
unusable as a beverage. AS to the
continued success of the dispensary
system, Mr.. McKelway reports that
in Fayetteville, the first large town
to adopt it, opposition to the dispen-
sary had practically ceased, the old
saloon-keepers have drifted off or
Ire engaged in honorable business,
and the stores formerly occupied by
saloons are now rented for bust
ness by which the public is served
instead of injured. The amount of
drunkenness and disorder has been
reduced to less than two-thirds.
The n d~ispensary, during the year
ending March 1, divided equally be-
tween the town and country net
profits amounting to $500, or four
times as much as the local public
formerly received in license fees
from the twelve saloons which the
dispensary has displaced. The ex-
perience Of Fayetteville has been
practically duplicated in Green's
boro, and in nearly every one Of the
smaller places in which it has been
tried.-New York Outlook.

STRIKE IN COTTON MILLS.

The fight is on between union labor
and non-union labor in the cotton
mills of North Carolina.
This question has precipitated a
strike at Haw River and as a result
three mills are idle and upwards of
800 operatives are thrown ont of
work. The mills which have shut
down by a of the strike are the
Cora Manufacturing Co., the ThOs.
II. Holt Manufacturing Go. and the
Granite Manufacturing Co.
But the end is not yet. The mill
owners in Alamance, the leading tex
tile manufacturing county in the
State have decided to meet the labor
question face to face. There are 25
| cotton mills in Alamance county and
the following notice was posted yes
terday by very near all of them:
NOTICE.
Whereas, recent developments
have shown that this mill cannot be
operated with that harmony between
the owners and the operators there
of, which is essential to success and
to the interest of all concerned so
long as the operatives T subject to
interference by outside parties, this
is to give notice hat on and after
the 18th day of October, 1900, this
mill will not employ any operative
who belongs to a labor union, but
will be run by n~on-union labor only.
The operatives who object to the
above, and will not withdraw from
labor unions, will please consider
this as a notice and vacate any house
and premises belonging to us which
they may now occupy, on or before
the 18th day of October, 190O.-Ral-
