versity will be specially graft
fed to learn that the proposed
endowment of 500, 900 has been
secured under the plan proposed
a year ago at the Baptist State
Convention by Rev. Joel l.. AL

secured. About the time the
500, COO mark was reached +,
Prof. G, II. Judson, life long
friend of the University and for
nearly half century the hon
ored and honorable professor of
mathematics in that institution
proposed to the trustees that if
they would make the endow-
ment $105, 900, he would give
them $4,000 more, making the
endowment $125,OCO. 1t was
secured and everybody is re-
joicing, and all should join in

NEW YORK COTTON BOOM.
Brokers Excited and Prices Went
Rushing Up Until Realized
that the Estimate Was
Ten Million Bales.

SENSATION al soaring OF prices up
ward and the heaviest sales on
record followed the announce
ment on the New York Cotton
Exchange of the agricultural de-
partment's estimate of the cotton
crop Of the present season, 9,962,-
039 bales. At the sound of the
word "nine," indicating the num-
ber of million bales in the estl-
mate, a scene of frantic bidding
set in, the shorts in their excite
ment not waiting to learn that
the total estimate was but 37,961
bales short of the round ten mil
lions, and instantaneously prices
jumped from 10 to 20 points on
the first sales, the rise continuing
until advances of from 80 to 40
points were registered before the
close of an hour, and of from 60
to 20 points before the upward
movement was checked. Then
the uncovering of long cotton in
tremendous volume at the ad-
vance and the realization that
the estimate was practically ten
million bales caused a temporary
reaction, but soon an in pour of
buying orders from outside mar
kets and bullish reports sent the
prices upward again, and at the
high point,reached shortly before
the close, stood 70 to 81 points
above the low level of the morn
ing. The market closed strong
at nearly the top, with prices net
SO to IA points higher. Sales
were estimated at 100000 bales
exceeding anything before recor-
ded, while prices broke all rec.
ords for this season of the cotton
year.
The market opened this morn
ing with prices a little off from
those at the closing last night.
The market was depressed to
11.60 for January and 11.72 for
March, May and July, and there
seemed to be a disposition among
the bidders on both sides to post
pone trading until the govern
ment crop report was received
When the report was read AT
noon the effect was electrical,
and the mediate clamor of the
bidders drowned the reading of
all but the first figure Of the re-
port. Shorts did not wait to hear
whether the estimate might be
only one bale less than ten mil
lions or only nine millions, but
in a panic rushed to cover, and
in fifteen minutes II cents or
more was being asked for every
option on the list. Although the
trade had been prepared for
low estimate, an average of pri-
Vate estimates put forward last
week by Cotton Exchange mem
bers being 1888, 900 bales, moth.
ing below ten million had been
anticipated and the widest buy.
ing movement in the history of
the Exchange ensued. So great
was the excitement, with over
100 brokers seeking to buy, that
at tiEoo prices were 10 to Is
points apart in different sections
Of the pit. The volume of bust
ness was so great and the excite
ment go intense that the brokers
were on the verge Of collapse the
maximum advance represe~' -"
an enhancement In value of from
SO co $3.50 per bale, the fluctua-
tions meaning the gain or loss OF
fortunes.

Christians Must be Industrious.-Rev
D. q. Benham, pastor of Central Presby terian
Church, Baltimore, preached last Sunday on
1.-THE People Had Mind to Work." Neh. iv, 6.
He said in part
Diligence and industry are commended
throughout the Bible. The new dispensation
agrees with the old dispensation in this re-
gard If any would not work neither should
he eat, says the Apostle Paul. And again :
Let him that stole steal no more but rather
let him labor, working with his hands the
thing which is good, that he may have to give
to him that needeth.'
"And yet again: Not slothful in business
fervent in spirit, serving the Lord And,
Owe no man anything, but to love one an
other Work is a blessed privilege, and
happy is he who has plenty to do.
Our Lord Jesus set us the example of in.
dustry in his own life He learned the car
penter's trade at Joseph's bench. He labored
people of Nazareth. He who was the archi
tect of the Universe became a maker of house
hold furniture. He studied in the schools, he
read the Scriptures in the synagogues. And
when he began his ministry he was soon so
busily engaged that he had scarcely time to eat
or sleep. He healed the sick, raised the dead
preached the gospel
THE apostles also were busy men. They
had their employments before they were called
to follow Jesus. Some of them were fisher
men one of them was tax collector. They
were not idling in the market place when Jesus
called them. They were not tramps, follow
ing the Nazarene Teacher for the purpose of
obtaining livelihood without labor.
'They were hard working men, and they
were at work when Jesus called them. One
man was in the very act of casting his net
two were mending their nets one was sitting
at the receipt of custom. All were busy. They
we're not drones in the hive of human indus
try. If they had been Jesus would not have
called them. He was calling men for service
upon.
ut is still so. Jesus is still calling busy, in
dustrious, reliable men, If idlers are saved
they are saved for service, and must immedi-
ately go to work. There are no loafers in the
kingdom of heaven"

And Now for the Athletes.-On Satur-
day night last meeting in the interest of the
Towson Athletic Association was held in the
hall over the engine house. Mr.. y. Howard
Isaac presided and Mr.. Courtney Jenifer was
secretary. There was an informal discussion
as to what should be done to placet he club in
first-class condition at the start in the spring.
The club, it is expected, will have baseball and
football teams. The necessity of selecting new
grounds for practice was discussed and a COM
mittee, composed of Messrs. William S. Keech
and William P. Cole, was appointed to try to
secure suitable place. 1t is said that it is
likely grounds will be obtained upon the Bos-
ley property, between Pennsylvania and Ches-
apeake avenues. The association will elect
officers at future meeting.
An organization to be known as the Baynes-
vile Athletic Club has been formed at Baynes-
vile, about two miles east of Towson, on the
Joppa road The officers are: President Har-
old Carter; secretary, Edward Carroll treas
urer, James Bayne.

Perry Hall, 18th District.-Early on Satur
day morning last MIR. Bart Seidl, a well known
farmer of this community, sustained heavy
loss by fire. His barn was destroyed and all
its contents, including a pair of mules for
which he lately paid $780,, one horse, two
cows, all his proyender, besides all of his road
and market wagons, harness, etc. Mr.. Seidl
got up before day break to summon physi-
clan for his mother, who is very sick. After
getting about mile from home be discovered
bright light in the direction of his farm
He hurried back and found his barn in blaze
1t was too late to save anything all he had to
do was stand there and see his property go up
in smoke. ALI his farming implements were
also consumed and about 20 barrels of corn.
Mr. Sedl has the sincere sympathy of his
neighbors and friends. He has no idea how
the fire originated.
The funeral of Mr.. John T. Burgan took
place at the NJ. E. Church South, at this place,
last Sunday, the attendance being large Gar
den Lodge of Odd Fellows, of which he was
member, had charge of the services.
The company that is projecting an electric
railway from Relair to Baltimore lately held
two meetings at Perry Hall and the people in
this section are greatly pleased at the prospect
of securing rapid transit at an early date The
general feeling among the people here is that
the Belair road possesses so many advantages
over the Hartford road as the location for such
a line that the company must ultimately Sc
lect it. 1t is much straghter than the Aar-
ford road and is practically level. 1t is also
much more thickly populated than the country
along the Hartford road.
Mr.. Henry Walter has erected barn on his
property here to replace the one that was
burned about two years ago. His son-in-law,
Mr.. William George, will farm the place the
coming season. X.

Freight Line From Baltimore to Harris
burg.-The Baltimore american of 9th instant
says the Pennsylvania Railroad Company has
a corps of engineers, in charge of Mr.. ]. w.
Troxell, engaged in making a survey which, it
is understood, is preliminary to the proposed
construction for a new double-track through
freight line between Baltimore and Harris
burg. This, it is stated, is one of the improve
ments to be paid for out of the large loan re-
Gently authorized by the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company.
From Phoenix Station the new line takes
the high ground and spans the GuDpowder
and the Western Run streams on the east Of
the present line.
This will give the Pennsylvania, or more
specifically. the Northern Central Railway,
two independent double-track lines between
the points named. This improvement it is
explained. is made necessary by the heavy in
crease in freight traffic, which has caused con-
gestions at all the terminal and junction points
so frequently of late on the Baltimore Division
of the Northern Central, as we'll as on other
divisions of the Pennsylvania.
