OF Linley Sam bourne, Sir John Ten
nieIs successor on Punch, it is said
that he is short and stout and would
easily be taken for prosperous gen
t1eman farmer, whose only thought
was crops and horses He lives in a
charming and artistic house in Ken
sington, one of whose features is a
vast collection of photographs to be
used in his works a cartoonist They
are assorted. we are told into scores
of departments Kings, queens SOL
diers, sailors, judges, members of par
lament, actors, actresses, celebrities

were in constant conference. Com
stock was not much perturbed at first,
as his wife and Fox decided all queS-
tions. But as the fight Waxed warm
er Comstock's exc1usiveness began to
tell against him and it became neces-
sary to take the minor politicians to
him, particularly as these men were
being promised divers and sundry fat
from the crib AS Jack Murphy ex-
pressed it:
I'm from Missouri Show me- I
want to see the old man hisself and
hear him make his SPIEL
So Comstock'S library was invaded
by noisy and il1-smelling crew which
put feet on the tables and poisoned
the atmosphere with black cigar
smoke. Comstock grew rebe1lious.
Then Mrs Comstock gave two or three
dinners that drew from him the only
protest he had ever made to her since

Daniel r. Magruder, former judge of
the Maryland Court of Appeals. is a
constable at Annapolis. To the pro
test of the citizens that constabies
had not been appointed the board in
charge of the matter replied that
men could not be found to accept the
office. When Judge Magruder stated
that plenty of good men could be
found it was suggested in banter that
the Judge should accept. and he did.

Probate Courts Technical Task.

Some time ago Anthony Holland
and wife, highly respected residents
of TalIahatchie county, Mississippi,
were found dead in a wood near their
home They were a most devoted
couple and the conclusion arrived at
was that Mrs. Holland was accident
ally shot, Mr. Holland through grief
committing suicide with the remain
ing barrel of the shotgun which he
carried The estate was settled on the
basis of this superstition, but on ap-
peal to the courts 1t was shown that
when the bodies were found that OF
the wife was still warm, while Mr..
Hollands was cold Therefore the wo-
man must have survived her husband

been widely discussed and, SO far as known,
not q single dissenting opinion has been
advanced. sumo citizens say that they do
not believe any permanent good can be
accomplished, simply because all efforts
made In that direction In the past have not
been thoroughly successful but they agree
with the others in thinking that the plan
is a good one and that much good viii

The general opinion is that there must
be no half way measures. The really good
citizens Of Houston. the representative

Cotton

New York, October 2.-The market
for cotton futures opened firm, with
prices 5 to 6 points higher on demand
from shorts, light foreign support and
rather more confident support from the
bull forces. Immediately following the
call this general buying carried Octo-
Der to 7.16 and January to 7.79, the
highest figures of the day. Then came
a reaction under profit taking and sell
ing by pit scalpers for a turn. The
cable news was considerably better
thar anticipated. Reports that foreign
spinners were growing uneasy owing
to the decreasing visible supply; official
reports of general rains over the east
ern and central belt, small. receipts at
all points n bad crop reports re-
strained would-be sellers and en-
couraged buying on the easier periods
Increased demand for cotton for export
in the south and predictions for a bull
ish government report tomorrow help
I'd to hold h market steady during
the apathy which prevailed through
out the late afternoon and early after
noon. The issuance of some 5000 or
more October notices early in the day
was unexpected and for a time had a
depressing influence, but this h~eaviness
was limited almoS tentirely to the Oc-
tober position. In h late session the
market was very steady on covering,
and backing from bulls, with the close
steady at a net gain of 1 to 5 points.
The January option was easily the va
vorite n led in all advances.

Last Weekly Crop Report

Washington, October 1.-Following Is
the last weekly summary of crop con-
ditions to be issued by the weather
bureau this season.
The temperature conditions of the
week ending September S0th were
highly favorable throughout The central
valleys, lake region, middle Atlantic
states and New England. and no dam
aging frostS occurred.
Excessive rains also interferred with
farm work in portions of the south At
lantic and east gulf states. The week
has been favorable for maturing and
gathering corn, and reports from the
principal corn states indicate that a
much larger acreage than usual at this
date has been cut. The crop is now
practically safe from frost in ali dis
tricts.
The weather conditions in the cotton
belt have been very favorable for pick
ing, except over portions of Georgia,
Florida and North Carolina, where this
work has been retarded to some ex-
tent by rains in the latter part Of the
week. Picking has progressed rapidly
in the central and western districts,
where cotton has opened rapidly, the
bulk of the crop being gathered in some
sections. Over b eastern portion of
the cotton belt, the low temperatures
of h week have damaged the staple
in portions of North Carolina, Georgia
and Florida. while the sea island crop
of South Carolina is suffering from
drouth. In Texas late cotton is being
damaged by boil weevil and other in
sects. and the outlook for top crop is
very poor
Only a small part of the tobacco crop
and that in Kentucky and Tennessee
remains u%nhoused. The reports gener-
ally indicate that this crop has beer
secured in satisfactory condition.

The Coffee Market.

New York. October 2.-Spot Rio quiet;
No. z invoice SIC; mild market quiet,
Cordova tx to lie. The coffee futures
market opened steady in tone, with
prices 5 points higher on light room
covering, inspired by unexpected
strength in European markets and a
falling off in primary receipts. A high
er rate of Rio exchange also had q
bullish effect on early sentiment. Bra
lillian market advices reflected easier
conditions there. Estimation Of 9,000. 900
bags for the Santos, with private ca
BILE advices from Santos that the hu-
bonic plague reports had been much ex-
a~ggerated, brought out free offering
from local bears late in the morning
and prices declined rapidly, at the close
indicating a net loss Of 5 to 10 points.
The market was finally steady in
Sales were 81. 500 bags.

Tampa snforces vagrancy Law

Tampa, Fla, October 2.-The police
were ordered this morning to start the
vagrancy crusade against the remain
ing strikers. The police patrol wagons
were kept busy and more than fifty
were arrested. The police court kept
open all day. The men were given the
privilege of going to work in the fac
tories or thirty days on the streets.
Hundreds of them will be arrested.
Those who do not work in factories or
somewhere must serve the city.
No opposition was offered to this
move but many Sullen crowds were en-
countered and driven to the police sta
ton. The work will not get under good
Roadway until tomorrow. The manu-
facturerS committee in New York ad-
vised today that the first shipment of
men from there would be made to-
morrow.
