Margaret e. Sangster in Golfers Weekly
A measure that sets you 10 dancing.
The lit Of gay little song,
The accent Of merry waves CHANGING
In the sun they frolic along
That's rag-time.
The sound of the crispest staccato,
The chirp of the fiightiest bird,
The glide of a rich ohligato
By the pulsing of happiness stirred
That's rag-time.
The music of youth and endeavor,
No tagging, no dropping the pace;
The glad heart that keeps on forever.
And lights up the loneliest place
That's rag-time.

NEWS FROM THE COTTON CROP
TEXAS AND THE TERRITORIES
HAVE BEST PROSPECTS.
A Practical Disaster Has BcfnIlcn
the Crop in observation-disclosures
ment in Tennessee.

New Orleans. La, August 81 The
Times Democrat will tomorrow print the
following: According to the reports of
our cor, espondents there was no essential
change in the condition OF the cotton crop
during the mouth of August. There was 4
distinct Improvement in some sections, hut
there was. On the other hand. distinct
deterioration In others.
Texas and the Territories nave thu best
prospects and present indications point
to a considerably increased yield from
that important portion Of the belt. Louia-
lana Is fairly good. but the crop OF .his
State Is very spotted and the trlft dur
ing August has been In the direction OF
decreased yield.
Arkansas has also lost ground, the eS-
cessiye temperatures having caused tho
plant to throw off It's fruit.
In Tennessee slight Improvement Is
noted. but there Is no indication Of any
Sins more than a most moderate result.
"A'om some portions of Mississippi theya
come accounts of somewhat more favor
able conditions. but nothing has occurre !
to change the general belief that prac-
teal disaster has beflllen that State.
In Alabama the tendency has been
rather toward Improvement. although tho
crop is reported as having been very
spotted
In Georgia and the Carollnas this month
was marked by distinct deterioration. in
consequence of drouth and excessive heat.
Although moderate rains have fallen
within the last few days, the consensus
of opinion among our correspondents is
to the effect that the crop of the Atlantic
States as a whole will fall below the re-
suit OF last. year. Finally It must be re-
membered that date OF frost will cut quite
an unusual figure. Although no definite
opinion may now be formed. II Is fairly
evident that nothing more than a very
moderate report is to be expected from
the belt as a whole even with the most
favorable conditions from this time forth.
II Is moreover to be borne In mind that
the actual production Of 1899 was hardly
more than 100000 bales the remainder
Of the commercial crop having been
brought forward from the two successive
bumper years. The cotton statisticians of
1900 must therefore have a crop of less
than 100000 as base line.
