No Limit to Cotton Mills.

Charlotte, N. c., January lin
an interview with an Associated
Press reporter Mr. D. A. Tompkins,
the we'll known cotton mill expert,
takes most encouraging view of
textile conditions in the South.
In reply to question as to the
prospects of new mill construction
in 1900 Mr. Tompkins said that ex-
pectations in this line will be fully
met. "Tha machine manufac-
turers in the United States" said
Mr. Tompkins, "csn make 100000
spindles a year. That is the ex-
tent of their output. The new
mills to be built in 1900 will re.
qujre 100000 spindles for their
equipment, 80 that the mill con.
struction this year will ;be very
nearly equal to the capacity OF
the machine plants to turn oul
spindles."
Continuing, Mr. Tompkins said :
''New England has 100000
spindles, of which 100000 are
located in Massachusetts. There
are now 100000 spindles in the
South. At the end of 1900 the
South will have 100000 spindles
and New FL gland will still have
100000. In Massachusetts new
spindles are being put in on fine
stuffs only, while the old ones are
being discontinued Oh coarse
stuff.
"Old England has 100000
apindles; the South 100000; the
United States, including the
Middle States, 100000. At the
! rate of 100000 new splndles a
wear, the present rate of increase,
ten years from now the United
State would have about the same
number of spindles as England
Of th.se. New England and the
Middle States would probably
have 100000, all on fine goods,
and the South 25,0O0,000. 10
other words, the United States in
1910 will have as many spindles
as England, and the South will
have more spindles than New Eng
land and the Middle States COM
bined." @ AaG
Mr. Tompkins says there is not
the slightest fear of over-pro-
duction if we properly develop
our market opportunities. The
Orient, be says, might be developed
TO take the product of 100000
spindles in ten years. over and
and above the present production
Just how remote the possibility o.
over-productlon is, is manifes
from the fact that it will require
10O,000,000 spindles to manufac
ture the cotton crop of the worlt
Tito the average grade of cloth
and it has been shown there ART
but 100000 spindles in tn
United States aud 100000 il
the South.

CAPITAL CAMERA CLUB.
It's Exhibition Opened Successfully
With Last Nights Reception.

With Last Nights Reception.
The Capital Camera Club exhibition.
which opened with a card reception last
night, is in every way worthy of the talent
and industry of its members The pictures,
$50 in number, are well displayed in the
ample club rooms at 1910 street. Class
of this year is. If possible, of superior
merit to that Of last. which is saying a
great deal. In this class are 40 prints,
covering a wide range of subjects and
treated with the marked individuality of
their several producers.
The photograph as a means Of artistic ex-
preston receives strong Endorsement at the
hands of the Capital Camera Club, which
has among its members men and women
who have won distinction and material ad-
vancement through the superior excellence
of their work. Photographic exhibitions
are becoming important events in the
artistic life of many of the larger cities of
the country, and are the beginning of an
awakening in the smaller towns and viii
lagos. many of which have their band of
devoted workers.
Glass B contains work which to the I'M
professional eye ranks in many ways with
the work shown in A, and in subject mat
ter at least 1t is equally interesting.
The club was assisted in their present ex-
hibition by an able committee of selection.

BY EDWARD {. Dana.

The supreme court of Vermont
gave decision in the Rocco Lott
case last week which declares that Il
man cam t place beer on the table
for his boardcrs. even if he does not
annex an additional tax to the board
bill. In n great many Italian board
ing houses in Barre and Montpelier
beer is, from a national custom,
placed on the table at meal time. 1t
is used as beverage in the place of
tea or coffee. This decision now
makes such I'm act illegal, and the
boarding house manager who has So
thoughtfully looked after the palate
of his star boardcrs, now infringes
on the law if he keeps Switchboard
for their benefit. No decision has
yet been rendered us to the serving

These are not parallel cases exact
ly. it may he admitted, but in con-
sidering the fantastic operation OF
the prohibitory law boarding houses
and banquet halls are quite naturally
linked together. The closing para.
