EGYPTIAN COTTON.

a few days ago press dispatch re-
ported that there had arrived at Nor
folk an Importation of 100 bales of
Egyptian cotton, consigned to a mill
in South Carolina. The item was one
of interest to persons engaged in pro-
ducing or handling American sea ISL
and cotton with which the Egyptian
staple comes more or less into compe-
tition. 1t appears, however, that the
South Carolina mill, which is situated
at the town of Glover, has been i'm
porting and spinning Egyptian cotton
for as much as two years. 1t produces
a high-g yarn, used in the manu-
facture of fine underwear and hosiery.
Since the mill was organized and is
run for the purpose of making money
for its stockholders, the fact that If
uses Egyptian cotton in preference to
the American long-staple is no doubt
tased upon the cost of the raw ma
terial
In connection with this matter it is
interesting to note that the government

A story Ade Heard.

George AIDE had been for a visit to
the old home, at Lafayette. Ind, and
returned to Chicago reeking with
Hoosier stories, says the New York
Times. One of them relates to 'street
fair recently held in that place. Many
of the freaks of the Fair Midway
boarded with the keeper of a cheap
hotel, who consequently was at liberty
to visit. without charge, any of the eX-
hibits. One morning, after the fair had
been running a few days, country
bow appeared at the hotel and told the
proprietor that he and his pap" had
brought a load of hay to town for the
animals in Bostock's show, but the load
upset.
Had yer breakfast" inquired the
landlord.
Nope. We started fore sun-up."
The man insisted that the boy take
breakfast right then. The boy did so,
but protested that he was afraid pap"
wouldn't like it. After breakfast the
man said:
Ever seen Lulu the wild girl?"
o. Nope. Hain't been t town sence
last fall"
Better come an see her. Won't cost
a cent"
ooh. never mind. It won't take
long"
But pap won't like it,"
After they had seen Lulu they visited
the two-headed boy. the skeleton man.
the switchback railway. the animal
show, each time the boy warning the
man that pap" wouldn't like it, but
each time being oYerruled by his gem
erous guide. AT last. toward shutdown,
the boy positively balked at going in
to see the girl with the elephant feet,
on the score that he was sure pap"
wouldn't like IT,
"Well, by the way. where is your
pap?" asked the man.
"He's under the load of hay"

Dewey is coming South, to spend
some time in Florida Schley is COM
ing South, to spend some time in Sa-
vannah. Both will leave Washington
this week. 1t is to be hoped that Ad-
miral Dewey can find it convenient to
come to Savannah while Admiral
schley is here. The people would be
very glad, indeed happy, to see the
heroes of Manila and Santiago stand
ing shoulder to shoulder. The recep-
ton that the people would give them
would make them forget that there is
such thing in the Americans vocab-
ulary as criticism. And, if Admiral
Dewey really desired it, Savannah
would agree to cut out the Artillery
