HIS MAJESTY is FRUSTRATED

able.

King Cotton is still IN the hospital,
SO far as prices affect ellis Majesty"
and convalescence from the recent at
tack of the bears upon him is slow and
unsatisfactory. If receipts continue
to hold up elsewhere as in Americas
the crop is going to turn out very well
after all. But the farmer is not kick
ing about making several bales more
than he expected six weeks ago, as is
the result of the top crop. He sold
his first cotton at 81 to 81 cents and
paid his obligations early in October,
and this top crop of cotton, which is a
surprise to all, is just that much more
in his pocket, although it sells for a
cent pound less than did the first
picking. In this immediate vicinity
the crop is turning out very well as
the result of the maturing of the top
crop,

MISS LAMoUR IN FINE COMEDY,
Will Score a Success Here Tomorrow
Night.

The appearance of Miss Marie La
mour and splendid company tomorrow
night should draw large audience as
"a Wise Woman" spoken of as being
a delightful farce, promises to score a
local hit. 1t is said to be a great &C
cession to the list of farcical successes,
as the bright jollity of the play creates
no end of merriment. It has every
reason for succeeding for it is acted by
a capital company, and it is so dis
tinctiyelY novel in scheme and develop
ment that it furnishes what most peo-
pie like best, diversion from accepted
standard. The plot is light and fIny
but the incidents and complications
are immensely amusing, which makes
it quite the breeziest offer of a long
time.
