OLD COTTON GONE.
Remarkable Fact Is Shown by Fed.
eral Report

Washington, D. c., Oct. The re-
port of the department Of agriculture
as given below on the amount of old
and razy co1tCa O., hand August 81. is
remarkable as showing the almost ut
ter depletion OF the crop of last year
from customary points. The stock of
old cotton at the close of the season
usually exceeds 1870 900 bales. 1t was
about this amount last year, and in ad
dition there were marketed during the
months of July and August over 49,
900 bales of new cotton. The practi-
cally complete disappearance Of the
old stock IS nearly without precedent
as rarely before have plantations and
inland towns been so completely

tain the a4luai intiuence OF music upon
animals. The Instrument was tne rio.

OF all the animals the puma was shs
most sensitive to the musical inTiu'

eording to the nature OF the melody,
the animal frequently becoming very
excited and nervous, 'just l:.;e

Coming Reunion
Continued from Page |.

In receiving and welcoming these
veterans we bear in mind that we are
paying. perhaps our first and possibly
our last tribute to the state organiza-
tiOn--a body Of men whose proud
footsteps were disciplined to the i'm
perial and conquering march of Stone
wall Jackson, whose heroism was hon
ored by Gen. Robert f. Lee, whose
saber struck with Forrest, Stuart,
Hampton, Morgan and Wheeler and
whose immortal deeds are as bright
today as the sunlight that flashes from
steel
Let us all give these warriors a well
come that will reanima,e them and
that will be so genuine and enthusias
tic that it will add days OF peace and
comfort to their waning days.

Took Forty Minutes to Kill a
RattleSnake.

Fritz Brink killed one of the largest
rattlesnakes that has ever been seen
in New Mexico, near his sheep ranch
eighteen miles north. He fought the
snake about forty minutes before he
killed IL, as he did not want to injure
the skin. He shot the snake in the
head five times before he killed it
with u shot gun and the head was
literally torn from the body.
He stuffed the skin and it measures
six feet and two inches without the
head. The snake has seven rattles
and a button, and is on exhibition in
the show window of the Rothenberg
& Schloss Cicgar company on Main
street. And seeing is believing.
