BRANCH NORMAL.

April 4-Consldering that the greater
number Of our students come from
farming communities, the attendance Is
holding out remarkably we'll Very few
have thus far discontinued.
The entertainment on Saturday even
ing was quite successful. A good cum
was realized by the athletic association.
This organization plans giving series
Of entertainments In the near future.
The field day exercises on Friday at
ternoon proved very interesting Con-
cIderable interest In the events was ex-
hibited by the students the larger por-
ton Of them being present to witness
the contests. As the events were purely
comparative. no records were kept, One
thing, however was clearly shown;
should any contest be carried on with
other schools there will be some who
VIII be able TO give a very fair account
OF themselves.
Not little surprise was felt by the
members Of the athletic association
here on receiving Saturday formal
proposition from Secretary Shelley OF
the University Athletic association, for
meet between the University track
team and Branch Normal track team.
The proposition, Il does not seem to
have been sent as a challenge and Is
not so regarded here, provides for
trip 10 Cedar City by the University
athletes this year, and visit to the
University by tina Branch Normal team
next year. The boys here have formed
themselves into ways and means COM
mttee, and If they find that the money
necessary to cover expenses can be
raised, the offer will doubtless be ao-
cepted. The prospectus already a sub
ject for much discussion among stu
dents and citizens. While the athletes
here are flew and far between" they
say they will do their best TO make the
affair pleasant and interesting to the
visitors.

WANT A FARMERS TRUST.
Cotton Growers Think That VIII Bring
About High Prices.

COLUMBIA, s. c., Aug. i0.-The Hon.
Harvie Jordan, President OF the Southern
Cotton Growers Association, il enthusiastic
about the results OF organization in Texas.
He has just returned from a thorough
tour Of inspection OF that State and re-
ports the association stronger there than
In any State except Georgia, which started
Its organization a year ahead OF the other
States The Texas crop will be shorter,
Mr.. Jordan thinks, than last year, despite
the increased acreage.
Mr.. Jordan Is strongly in favor OF farm
ers' trust, and declares il TO be the only
sensible solution OF the situation. That
is what his association is working for, ho
says. 1t has gathered great strength
since last year, especially In the South
west Every county In Texas has an offic-
ial organizer and considerable money Is
being spent in supplying the farmers with
literature. The purpose OF the organ
ton is to enable the farmers to fx the
price, based on crop yield (which the as
sociation expects to be able to estimate
very accurately early In the season. and
on the probable demand The cotton
not needed for immediate consumption will
be stored in bonded warehouses which
will be established in every community
This will be sold during the year, according
to demand. The farmers obtain advances
on stored cotton.
The explanation OF the large receipts
all this spring and summer. in compari-
son with those Of the crops for several
years past, is probably that large amount
OF cotton was put last winter into bonded
warehouses all over the South. Such was
the case in this State.

TUNNEL PROBLEM NOT SOLVED.
Central Omciab Deny Reports to the
Eject That IL Had Been.

The New York Centrals Off cials are
exceedingly reticent on the subject Of any
pending change Of motive power that will
by foul gases. cinders and noise in the Park
avenue tunnel. SO many untrue stories
have been published Of prospective changes
that the railroad officials who have the
matter directly In charge say they will
not discuss for publication the plans or
experiments they may have In mind until
there Is q decisive statement TO he made
Of pending change.
Lately, there have been two plans
broached as likely TO be adopted by the
the practical abandonment OF the tunnel
and of the Grand Central Station, and the
utilization of the freight tracks along the
Hudson River as far south as Thirticth
street and the building OF a big passenger
station in the present freight yards at
Thirtieth street and Tenth avenue.
The splendid dreamer who sent abroad
this scheme added that the Pennsylvania
Railroad would build bridge across the
Hudson accessible to the proposed station
and that the New York Central, the Harlem
the New York. New Haven and Hartford
and the Pennsylvania would have a union
passenger station at Tenth avenue and
Thirtieth street Chief Engineer Wilgus
OF tho New York Central, who is the man
the New York Central directors look to to
solve the tunnel troubles, said yesterday
that the riverside scheme was not considered
at all by the Central directors.
The other suggested solution OF the
tunnel difficulties was that the long-dis-
cussed supcrheated water system of pro-
pulsion had NJ last been brought to degree
OF efficiency warranting its substitution
for locomotive power in the tunnel Mr.
Wilgus dismissed that story with the re-
mark that as for IA he knew the super
heated water scheme Of propulsion was
