to-day from Hamburg. Asked what he
thought of the cablcd report that
Russia and Germany would declare

for acting together"

made Of China and said on this sub

81 do not think that the Powers will
divide China. The condition that

The New Orleans Times Democrat,
of Wednesday, publishes an elaborate
report of the progress of the cotton
crop during July. The concensus of
opinion is that there is distinct i'm
provement in the outlook. 1t must,
however, be remembered that this COM
parison is made with the worst start
ever known. A very large proportion
of the original increase of acreage has
been abandoned, and it is quite possi-
BILE that no net increase has occurred.
Texas is probably the best situated of
the States, while Mississippi is the
! -c::ss:. -=c::ss.. Tbs Atlantic States hnve sui-
fered somewhat from drought; but the
situation in this quarter has recently
been relieved to some extent by liberal
showers. Louisiana, as q whole, has
n very good prospect. Arkansas is
also good. The reports from Alabama
| and Tennessee show marked improve
ment. The situation may be summed
up in the statement that the crop is
very spotted and very late. At pres
ent there is no reasonable assurance of
anything more than very moderate
: yield. !.

Ring Jaw Shoals.

Speaking OF the new Twin City
Power Company, which q few days
ago obtained n commission from the
Secretary of State, the Augusta Chroni-
Gle says:
"The Ring Jaw Shoals property, 25
miles above Augusta. on the Savannah
River, has been sold by Thomas Bar
rett, Jr., and his associates to the
Twin City Power Company. The sale
carries with it the stipulation that the
property is to be developed.
"The water at this point on the river
is magnificf t. Experts have testified
that as m power can be obtained
there as the Augusta canal affords.
The company which has purchased the
holdings of Mr.. Barrett and others have
also secured valuable additions there

propose to establish new manufac-
turing town there, and it may be that
power will he transmitted to Augusta
from this plant, as this was the original

Moral as Well as Political.

While the subject is UP for discus
sion, it is pertinent to remark that the
preachers were first attacked in their
alleged "unholy alliance" with the old
barkeepcrs, and their protest at the in
Justice and untruth of such an unwar-
rented charge is wholly in defense OF
their position.
The regulation Of the whiskey qucs-
ton is moral as we'll as a political
one, and if the people of this day and
generation do not put more religion
into their politics, they will continue
to SOW to the winds only to reap the
whirlwlnd in IL harvest of increasing
corruption and disorler.-N NewberrJ

- Mrs. Roosevelt is said to object to
official life in Washington because her
husbands income from his private for
tune is only $4,000 year, and a salary
OF $4,000 additional would give the
family only $4,000 annually-not
enough for Vice President. with six
children to buy shoes and stockings for
to live on.
= In a western court the other day
n man asked for divorce ON the ground
that his wife would not get up early
enough to get his breakfast. In her
counter petition the wife alleged that
her husband snored 80 : ud that in
the early part of the night she could
not go to sleep. The court granted
the divorce on general principles, with
out prejudice against either side.
= They have some very curious Grim
inal laws in Mexico. For instance, it
is twice as much of an offence to mu-
tilate the face of q woman as that of a
man. The law seems to be based.On
the idea that womans best posses
sion is her beauty, and that to mar it
does her great injury. There is an
other curious law. If person should
be wounded in an encounter the pun
ishmcnt to the offender is fixed by the
number of days his victim has to stay
in the hospital or under doctors care.
A line is fixed at forty days in the way
of II general division. If the injured
man occupies more than forty days in
his recovery the penalty doubles up.
