Cotton Seed War.

The cotton seed war is on again i'll this city and farfr CTS are getting SI5 per ton for their seed. At the beginning of the season seed brought $I6, but the three compa- nies soon reached an understand ing and seed dropped to SI2. There was no change for sometime, until Thursday when the combine was broken and seed went to SI 5 at one jump. Allinder & McCul- loch sold 40 tons at this price get ting round sum of S6oo.
 We understand the war was pre- cipitated by one of the companies agreeing to pay SI2 and haul the seed from some of the gins. We hope the mills can afford to pay the prices now prevailing as the rise will make a great difference to the farmers of the county.

HENDRIX COLLEGE OPENS.
Largest Opening in the His tory
 of the School.

The opening of Hendrix College last Wednesday was the most sue cessful one that the school has ever known. At this writing Io5 students have taken out entrance cards, and several more will enter later.
 For the first time since he has been at the head of the school, Pres. A. c. Millar was not present to lead in chapel exercises on the opening day. He was unfortun- ately unable to attend on account of his serious illness, but we are glad to state he is,now very much improved. Prof. J. H. Reynolds, vice president of Hendrix, took the Presidents place during his ab- sence.
 Last year the college opened with So students and the entire en- rollment was Ia5. At the same proportion of gain the total en- rollment this year will reach r64, but this number will probably be exceeded. It is stated that, while tie en- rollment i'll sub-college classes is approximately large, there is a notable increase in the number of collegiate students who have been attending academies and other col leges.
 Prospects for the success ot Hen drix were never brighter, and Con- way is naturally proud of the sue cess of this excellent institution.

THE KAlSER'S MUSTACHE

The emperor has changed the fashion
of his mustache. All portraits land, OF
course. the caricatures by preferencs)
still show the stiff-pointed ends Of the
imperial mustsche twisted upward on
both sides, says the London Mail
This style the emperor borrowed about
ten years ago from Baron Husen, the
Military Attache an Vienna, who patron
ized Haby's hairdressing saloon In the
Mittelstrasse. At that time this was
rather modest place, not to be compar.
ed with the fashionable saloon of Knoep.
fer In the Hotel Kaiserhef, the favorits
resort Of the aristocracy and of all for.
eigners. The foreign diplomats are shaw
ed here and have their hair dressed--if
they have any.
On Baron Hulsen's recommendation the
emperor sent for Herr Haby, who gave
that form to ths imperial mustachs
which has since become famous by the
name Of "Es ist erreicht," or "up to the
mark mustache.
Haby did not neglect his opportunity.
He took to advertising, and the comic
papers and caricaturists helped him free
of charge. In his rather humble bar
ber's shop he raised his charge for shaw
ing and hairdressing to a fancy price.
and one day, when protested against
having my mustache dressed in the i'm
perial fashion, the assistant gazed at me
with compassion i'm his eyes, evidently
thinking that 1 must come from the far
west not 10 appreciate the revolution
wrought by his master.
The latter has meanwhile made a for
tune through his invention OF the point
ed mustache."
Now, however. the emperor has aban-
doned that fashion. and wears his mus
tache brushed straight out, without
pointed ends.
