The Cotton Market.

I take this means of answering hun dreds of telegraphic inquiries reaching me from all over the country in regard to the cotton market. It is impossible for me to reply to them individually. The report of the United States govern ment issued to-day in regard to the cot ton crop indicates condition of GA, which is the lowest on record for Sep tember. It is and has been confirmed and foreshadowed by all other reports, public and private, for the past three weeks. The most optimistic cOnstruc- ton that 1t is possible to put upon the government report does not justify the expectation of crop of ten million bales of American cotton. The world consumed during the year just ended eleven million bales of American growth, and in order to make this sup ply suffice reserves everywhere are practically exhausted. For the coming season the world will require, conserva- lively estimated, about 11,250,000 bales of American cotton. There is, then, a theoretical deficiency between the max imum supply and the minimum demand of at least 1,25O,o0O bales. An actual deficiency is commercially unthinkable. The price must 80 to a figure that will check consumption. This price is by no means reached as yet. America has a practical monopoly of cotton produc- tion. Peace reigns universally through out the world. Industrial and commer- cial enterprise is unchecked and ex- banding. Next to foodstuffs cotton is the most important and necessary sta- pie consumed by civilized society. I think it entirely probable that before any effect upon consumption is appar- ent cotton will be selling at ten cents a pound in the, South. and doubt if the advance will stop there. If producers of the article are wise they will demand and obtain that figure.

About thirty students com prisea the party and they attracted con- siderable attention as they passed through the streets with their dinner pails or baskets and the necessary sur veying outfits.

PAINFUL ACCIDENT.

 Car Yesterday Morning.

Car Yesterday Morning.
 George F. Ockford, the 16-year-old son of Rev. P. S. Ockford, of Marble dale, Conn.,, who has been stopping with his parents at Cosey Beach for several weeks met with very painful and serious accident yesterday morning. He had ridden up from the beach for Branford. This he intended doing at the East Haven Green. The car did not stop at the time he thought it should and fearful of missing the Bran ford car he jumped hurried1y to the ground at the same time turning his face to the rear of the car. He was thrown with much force to the ground and in falling turned around so that he fell on his face. In an effort to save himself from the force of the fall he put out his right hand which saved him to some extent but still he struck on his face and was somewhat dazed He was taken to the office of Dr. Hol- brook where it was found that the right wrist had been very severely strained and one portion so strained as to be nearly dislocation. His face was also slightly scratched and bruised. The young man was later removed to the summer residence of his parents.

Dead to Department.

Mike" was an underling in the
Treasury Department at Washing
ton, but one whose duties were null
hilarious and complicated that his
superiors found it difficult to dis
pense with his services. Once in
six weeks, with the regularity of a
well seasoned periodical topper, he
would disappear for three days and
then come meekly back by way Of
the police court. In spite Of vigor-
Gus promises, which, by the way,
the use of years had worn thread
bare, he invariably met with peremp-
tory discharge. Then things would
begin to go wrong in his bureau and
rather than take hand themselves
or the trouble to break in new
man, his chiefs would confer thuss
well, we had better send for
Mike,
Yes, he's the only man who can
can straighten us out. "
So Mike would return to his post
with white ribbon in his coat and
all the joys of reinstatement
This went on for many years, and
then Secretary Shaw struck down.
| Coming at the end of rather pro
tracted period Of bard work and So
briefly, Mike yielded to the stress
of the fourth Of July. The usual
routine followed up to the time Mr..
Shaw was consulted
Mr.. Secretary, said one Of the
delinqucnt's immediate superiors,
things are in bad way down
stairs. | think we had better send
for Mike to set things right again.
Mike? Mixer" said Secretary
Shaw. ~ thought we had discharg-
cd Mike.
Yes, ! know, but it has always
been our custom 10 lake him back.
What would you do If Mike were
dead?"

a mysterious Graft.

There is a ghostly craft drifting
about the Atlantic causing sleepless
nights to mariners whotrade to this
port To them this mysterious
wanderer is known as the Flying
Dutchman of the North Atlantic. :
On several occasions, it is said, the
vessel made its appearance when
least expected, directly under the
bow Of an approaching ship.
On the charts issued by the by
geographic Office the ghostly craft
is marked as a dereliet, and known
as the threc-masted schooner B. r.
Woodside, which, abandoned by her
crew while en- route from Fernan
dina to San Juan, Porto Rico, in
March last, has since been floating
within a radius of GOO miles without
a hand % guide her.
But few derclicts have remained
anoat as long as this schooner De
serted by her crew in latitude 3405,
longitude "a 30 on Mrrch ., she has
been reported thirty times by pass
ing vessels.
Since its Abandonment the Wood
side has drifted many miles and
been set on fire over dozen times
by masters Of vessels, who sought
to rid the sea of this dangerous
darelict Each time the flames
have failed to destroy the vessel.
Two steamships, the Drummond,
Of the Earn Line, aud the Alfred
Dumois, trading between this port
and Jawaica, sighted the Woodsidc.
Her ioremast and ilb-boom were
standing The hull Of the vessel
appeared to be- intact Portions Of
the vessel were charred, showing

Some old Ships.

ship eXtant is the Victory, Adj
miral Nelson S fagshipat Trafalgar.
The Victory was launched in 1868,
and is now 1877 years old. She has
passed many year tied up to her
dock at Portsmouth, and the tooth
of time has left its destructive mark
upon her. Not so long agothe Brit
ish Admiralty spent considerable
sum of money in saving the old ship
from ruin.
AS a general rule, the lifetime of
ship built of the very best materi-
al scarcely exceeds 100 years To
be sure, there are exceptions. Per
haps the most remarkable of these
is the case of the whaler True
Love-" of Hull. The True Love
was a bark of 248 tons, and was
built in Philadelphiain 1748. After
she had sailed for a few years under
the American flag, she was purchas-
ed by an Englishman and converted
into a whaler. When she was 81
years old, old enough to be retired
she still voyaged to the Arctic Ocean.
After changing hands once again
she was still in active commission
for forty -four years as a carrier of
wood in the Baltic Sea. Finally,
after an active life Of l39 years, she
succumbed TO the inevitable ak.
Still another hoary ship was the
sailing vessel 'Betsey Gains. " The
exact date of her launching is not
known. But it is definitely record
ed that in 1858 she bore the name
princess Marie, and had the hon.
or of carrying Prince William, Of
Orange, TO England. She was then
used for a time as a pleasure yacht
by Queen Anne. After her period
of royal usefulness had passed, she
was sold and rcchristened Betscy
Gains. Her end was pathetic. She
was shipwrcckcd at Tynemouth in
1927, after she had carried the Eng
fish flag unintcrruptedly for 1879
years.
A long life was also granted to the
thrce-mastcd schooner Three Sis.
ters, a cotemporary Of the Bctscy
Gains. She had taken part in 1859
in the scige Of Londonderry. At
he beginning OF the last century al.
ter she bad attained the respectable
age of 1870, she was still voyaging
IN the Irish sea.
