COTTON AFIRE.
A Probably Serious COnflagratiOn
Averted by the Quick Work
of the Department.

Sunday afternoon the fire depart
ment made their third run within a
week. Four bales of cotton were on
fire at Lowrey & Davldson's ware
house, which of course placed the en-.
tire stock of cotton stored there in
danger. The departments quick
work, however, caused the feecv sta
Pile to escape with damages of about
FIVE or ten dollars to each OF the four
bales mentioned, none of the remain
der being injured.
The cotton was not in the warehouse
at the time it was ignited, but had
been placed on the ground near the
warehouse. 1t is supposed that ii
caught from cigar or cigarette some
boy was smoking while enjoying him
self playing on the cotton.

SPELLBINDERS ARE WANTED
Democratic Orators Needed or
Stump i'm Close Districts.

A Washington special to the At
lanta Constitution says Representative
Griggs, chairman of the democratic
congressional campaign committee,
has been disappointed in his plans for
getting a large number of leading
democrats to make campaign tours in
the close congressional districts.
Several of the men on whom he had
relied are i'll, and cannot go on The
stump at all. Others who had been
expected to speak in several states
have found that political conditions in
their own states and districts are such
as to make it advisable for them to re-
main at home.
Thus far Chairman Griges has not
been able to get an unconditiona
promise OF oratorical assistance from
any single one of the Virginia con
gressional delegation. Governor Mon
tague, however, will make speeches ir
Indiana.
Georgia's delegation is doing better
than many others. Representative
Livingston was on the stump in Maine
Representative Maddox and Adamsor
and others of the delegation are Elk
pected to make stumping tours. Rep
resentative Clayton of Alabama is nov
speaking in Delaware.
Among the democrats of prominence
who have promised to make speeches
are Senators Bailey and Carmack ant
Representative John S. Williams O
Mississippi, Robertson and Broussart
of Louisiana, and Green of Pennsyl
vania.

Man and His Chin

In man the front of the lower jaw
bone possesses well marked projec-
tion, known as the chin or mental
prominence, covered by a aeshy pod Of
corresponding shape. In all other back
boned animals the jawbone slopes back
without any such protuberance. 1t is d
singular fact that the presence Of a
well marked chin is associated with
firm character and well marked intel
lectual qualities. This is one of the
best founded rules in character delinea-
ton by physiognomy. The late Profess
or Huxley used to illustrate the matter
by drawing profile with good chin on
the blackboard and then wiping out the
chin and replacing it by a receding
curve. Any one who repeats the expert
ment will be surprised at the result.
The reason is not clear. but we may
perhaps say that well developed jaw
is associated with good digestive pow
ers, which have more to do with char
acter than one might at first sight sup
pose.

Antiquity OF Grains.


Nearly all the grains now in use are
of unknown antiquity. Wheat was cul-
tivated in all ATTITUDES as far back in
the past as we have authentic knowl-
edge. Barley is thought to have origi-
mated in the Caucasus, but it was
known and used everywhere in the
most ancient times. Oats, like rye.
were unknown in ancient India and
Egypt and among the Hebrews. The
Greeks and Romans received it from
the north Of Europe. Had there been
an early civilization on this continent
the wild oats found here and there
would probably have developed into
the useful cereal now considered abso-.
lutely essential to the proper nourish-
ment of horses This continent is cred
tied with having given Indian corn to
the old world. but this useful cereal
was doubtless known in India and Chi
na many hundred years before the dis
covery of America.

Grub Street, London.

Up to the seventeenth century Grub
street was on the outskirts of London.
1t was street tenanted by bowyers,
detchers, makers Of howstrings and
everything else that appertained to
archery. Later on John Fox lived in
Grul, street, though he did not write
his famous Book of Martyrs there
Fox S residence in Grub street occurred
about 1872. John Speed, the tailor
archROlogist, was a resident Of Grub
street, where he was famous as the
most responsible parent. having a fam
lily of twelve sons and six daughters
Grub street Of old and Milton street to-
day is noted for its great number Of
alleys and courts.
From Grub street issued such ia
nous old literary skits as Jack the
Giant Killer" Tom Hickathrift,' y '.The
Wise Men of Gotham and scores of
others now part of every boys libra
~. Probably literary men first began
to populate Grub street in any num-
bers during Cromwell's time. Then q
great number Of seditious and libelous
pamphlets were circulated, and as the
authors for safety had to seek obscure
living places they found a fitting re-
treat in the maze Of alleys which
webbed the Grub street section. At
pny rate, by the commencement Of the
eighteenth century Grub street had be-
come quite notorious as the poor au-
thofs' quarter Of London.
