Fifteen-Cent Cotton.

J. F. Hutchinson spent Friday on
the Andrews place five miles north OF
Pine Bluff. SAYS the England Courier.
He says that Mr. Andrews sold 300
bales of cotton this week for fifteen
cents pound. His cotton is the pure
yellow blossom, long staple variety,
and it would be well for our farmers
to try and procure seed from Mr.. An
dreWs, or anyone who has this partic-
ular variety. Mr.. Andrews says it will
produce as much cotton to the acre
as any other variety, and as the rela-
tive price of the long staple cotton is
growing greater all the time it would
be advisable for our cotton growers
to plant this variety next year.

A Queer Notion.

There have been some remarkable
things said on the woman question
lately. Miss Elose Icrsey, speculat
ing upon the condition of The EdHcat-
ed Woman of Tomorrow, says: "The
educated woman will have new
standard of honor. We wait yet fol
the day when an educated woman will
keep Il promise or Il secret, will pay q
debt or will face a penalty as bravely
as she bears physical pain"
Most women will wonder what the
experience has been which has con
vinced the author Of this article that
women as class fail to keep theil
promises or pay their debts. Keeping
secrets and seeking punishments are
not virtues commonly encountered il
men or women. 1t is not quite plair
how education will make any differ
ence in these two particulars.-NeU
York Post

In his tour Of the northwest William G.

a character sketch of the governor which
will probably afford pleasant reading to
the governor and his friends and an un-

an interview with the chief executive Of
the state. expresses the opinion that the
governors friends will attempt to have
him realize his ambition to become a vice
presidential candidate.

YIELD TO GIRLS APPEALS
Fifth Precinct Officers Clear Cedar Lake
Beach Of Boys so Girls
May Battle. en-.

A party of young women who are camp
ing on the shore Of Cedar lake will never
be convinced that the Minneapolis police
force is not all right. They had planned
to spend much Of their outing in the
lake. Each was provided with g. new
bathing suit, and yesterday they donned
their suits in their tent and with great
expectations started for the beach. But.
'oh horrors!'' the beach was lined with
a crowd Of boys who were disporting
themselves in the water, throwing mud
and using language not At for polite ears
to hear. To battle with that crowd OF
boys was out of the question and the
quartet repaired to their tent to hold a
council of war. The officers of the Fifth
precinct station were called upon for aid.
The case having been stated, the officers
made the boys move to another part Of the
beach. The girls can now battle un-
molested.
