To Foster Cotton Growing.
(By the Associated PreSS.)

London, June 12.-The Lancashire
Chamber Of Commerce and the Associa-
tions of Cotton Operatives held an i'm
portant joint meeting here today to con-
slider encouraging the growth Of cotton
throughout the British Empire. It was
decided to organize a British Cotton
Growers Association to foster the growth
of cotton in British colonies and protcc-
%torates. A guarantee FUND of 5000 pounds
sterling was subscribed. A committee
was also formed and empowered to send
experts throughout the world to collect
data on the improved methods of cotton
cultivation, to acquire land for expert
mental stations, to establish plantations
and to instruct natives in the methods
of cotton culture, and to maintain cotton
exchanges to facilitate buying, selling and
transporting the crop.

The critical point will come upon the
acceptance Of the House bill with us
amendments for the removal of the dli-
ferential DUTY on refaed sugars. Inc
beet sugar Republicans are still protec-
tionists and there has been from the be
ginning a division as TO the expediency
of adopting a policy looking TO the aooh-

lead to the conclusion that if any consid-

here to the determination TO vote with
the Democrats to support the House bill
it would pass the Senate. There would
then be no chance for a conference and
the bill would go to the President, who,
it is expected, would attach his signature
and thus make a law of the bill With the
Morris amendment included.

The clause in the Indian appro-
priation bill restricting land hold
ings to one hundred acres to the
head is misunderstood by some.
The provision is that one hundred
acres is the maximum amount of
land that can be held by an indi.
vidual, pending allotment, under
the old Curtis bill, the act of June
%, 1898. If the act that is to be
voted upon on the seventh of next
month, providing for allotment, is
defeated then allotment under the
Curtis bill will proceed, and every
one who has held land exceeding
one hundred acres subsequent to
July l, 1902, will be subject to
fine of 500 for each day the land
is so held. The law does not mean
that one hundred acres is to be the
proraia share, but that this amount
can be held only until allotment
under the Curtis bill can be had.
The allotment, in that event, will
be only a surface allotment and
according to the appraised value,
and may mean eighty acres or
sixty acres, or less, according to
the value placed upon it by the
commission.

TIPS ON WALKING.

Steps that are quick are indicat tive
of energy and agitation.
Tip-toe walking symbolizes surprise,
curiosity, discretion, or mystery.
Turned-in toes are often found with
preoccupied, absent-minded persons.
The miser's walk is represented as
stopping, noiseless, with short, nerv-
Gus, anxious steps.
Where a revengeful purpose is hid
den under feigned smile the step will
be sinking and noiseless.
Slow steps, whether long or short,
suggest a gentle or reflective state of
mind, as the case may be.
The proud step is slow and meas
ured; the toes are conspicuously
turned out; the legs Strengthened
The direction of the steps wavering
and following every changing impulse
of the mind inevitably betrays uncer-
tainty, hesitation and indecision.
Obstinate people, who in argument
rely more on muscularity than on in
tellectual power, rest the feet fatty
and firmly on the ground, walk heavily
and slowly, and stand with the legs
firmly planted and far apart.-Chicago

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
July 4, 1902.

This map really illustrates Fourth of
July territory since the signing of the
peace treaty in Paris between the UNITED
States and Spain on December TO- 1885, That
treaty gave US Porto Rico, Guam and the
Philippines, we paying for the latter the
sum of $50, 900, 900. OF these new posses
sions the Philippines contain about 1880
square miles; Porto Rico, 600 square miles.
and Guam 200 square miles. The population
of the Philippines is estimated at about
TO- 600 600; Porto Rico, 953, 243, and Guam,
5000. The island territory secured from
Spain as a result of the war of 1888 does
not, however, include all the recently &C
quired islands shown in the map. Hawai-
came to us by annexation upon request OF
the island government, July z, 1898, when
President Mckinley signed the annexa-
ton bill as passed by both houses OF con-
gress. This extended the Fourth Of July
limits over $40 square miles of territory,
in which reside 154, 600 people. The little Is
lands of Tutuilla, Manua and Anu, consti-
tutfng another of our new island colonies
far out in the Pacific, were acquired
December 2, 1892 when treaty was signed
in Washington between the United States
and Germany providing for the partition of
Samoa. This added 79 square miles to our
territory, with a population of about 1000
wake island, the other United States
possession shown in the map, is but
a small and barren rock, which was
seized by the United States in 1898
to be used as cable landing Place,
should this government ever require 1t for
that purpose. Upon 1t the boom of the
cracker has, as yet, never been heard. In
much of this new territory Fourth of July
will reign supreme in this year 1902
