Congress has made an appropriation
to be expended in putting the White
House in a safe condition. The plumb
ing is said to be in bad condition and
the house is therefore claimed to be
in very unhealthy condition for any
one to live in it. Just now while the
house is being overhauled and repaired
the design is said to be to make it the
colonial mansion it was intended to be
when it was built. In the past few
years only very small sum of money
has been expended on the house, so
that the present repairs are said to be
absolutely necessary. To spend money
in the way outlined, is considered by
all to be good Investment. For a
people as rich as we are our treatment
Of our chief officer is rather niggardly,
to say the least.

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 2-The cotton mar ket was rather tame today In the absence of Liverpool advices, traders looked to the move- ment for guide to transactions and the con- tinuance of thick receipts furnished the in centive for freer offerings, which forced prices to slightly lower level. With the re- cent heavy movement the amount of cotton Tn sight has managed to exceed last year for the first time during this season. the total in sight Of this crop to the end of December be- ing 6.605 900 bales, compared with 6 6575- 900 same time last year. 59l7, 900 year before and I726.ooo in 898 It is necessary, of course therefore, that the movement hence- forth should fall considerably under last years in order to stimulate confidence in the accuracy of the bureaus figures Meanwhile operators are inclined to walt and ascertain dennltely if the present scale of receipts is due to free holiday liquidation, or a larger yield than calculated upon, hence the insignih- cant effect of thi sfeature on the market at the moment.

An Experts Defense of the snorer

DothanN Home1 Jo ournals / N
 First-The snorer,,is a prompt man. Of two men who occupy the same room at night, it has always been true that the one who snores, if there be one. al- most invariably falls asleep first His object in getting on the bed is to go to sleep, and he proceeds with promptness and dispatch to the business before him, while the other fellow lies awake and rolls from side to side and growls about the effect of that noise on his nerves. Why didn't he go to sleep at once, as the snorer did? Let that question be answered
 ageous man. He is sleeping and he doesn't care who knows it: he Is sleep in certain room and on a certain bed and he is willing that every one in the house and every passer-by may know the room and the bed. He is not a sly, sec retive man, of whom it is well to be afraid. He has nothing to conceal, for even at night and when asleep you may always know where to find him.
 Third-The snorer is amiable and toll erant. He does not try to force his roommate to snore because he snores, nor to prevent him i@, any wise from slumbering in his o@a peculiar way. He may make a subdued hiss ing sound like steam escaping in fftful puffs from wheezy little engine at rest, or he may initiate purring cat. The amiable man makes no complaint. He closes his eyes and opens his snore- valve-which is his way of taking his TeSL-dHu ledfcS companion lO uO as he pleases. But he is not treated in that tolerant way himmself. He is abused, mentally at least. then and there; the newspapers throw old and poor jokes at him; he is reviled and sIandered and persecuted. and that gem
 orally by nervous and unreasonable people who try to make everybody do things in their way, especially when it come to the way of sleeping.
 Fourth-The snorer is energetc and persevering. With clean conscience as to the past day and a clear insight to the transaction of the morrow he at once plunges into rosy slumber and turns on hhe steam. He means business. And when, for a reason always sufficient, he desires to turn from his back to one side, or from one side clear over to the other, he doesn't shut off steam and suspend operations until he can slowly think the matter over, and ask other like; but with. a sudden kick and with a decided snort louder than any before it he founces over and proceeds in few brief moments with his delightful and natural indulgence. And when the gray streaaks of the rising dawn foretell the coming of the sun-it morn he is ready for another day of useful labor. N5t so with the other fellow who laid awake and nursed unholy thoughts to- ward the happy snorer. He Is all un- done, and he yawns. and when the snorer has left the rom he expresses his pent- m feelings in bad words.
