PRETTY CIRCUS WOMEN.
They Must Have Good Looks Nova
 days as We'll as Good Muscles.

From the New York Sun.
 There is a new kind of circus girl, just as there Is a new chorus girl The latest thing in chorus girls is slight and piquant. and in marked physical contrast to the opulent, stalwart beauty who was form erly considered the only type adapted to stage display.
 The new kind of circus girl is striking principally on account of her increased comeliness. The hard faced, dyed-haired rider, with her set smile and ghastly lit- tie coquetres Is a thing of the past.
 The women are nowadays fresher, pret- tier, and nearly always better dressed than they ever were in the past Comeli- ness seems to be regarded now as im- portant as their athletic skill.
 One very mediocre acrobat was a wo- man called "rhe Beautiful Geraldine who was successful ten years ago from one end of Europe to the other, but on account of her supposedly great beauty. Yet today She would not seem so much above the average of looks at the Madi- son Square Garden.
 Their dressing Is also more tasteful in its colors. and the women who this year ride in habits are in every way smarter looking than they were In the past But 1t Is her looks that dfferentiate the pres ent day circus girl from her predecessors. She Is rapidly becoming a thing of beauty as we'll as of muscle and daring.

LUMBER AND MFG co.
Montgomery Loses s5o,ooo Plant By
 Passage of Recent Bill.

From, the Montgomery Journal
 By the passage of the act by the late legislature creating Greater Montgomery the city of Montgomery has lost s5o'oOo lumber plant.
 The Conecuh Pine Lumber and Manu- featuring company, one of the largest lumber concerns around Montgomery which operates an extensive plant on the west side of the Louisville and Nashville rai,road this side of Riverside park. have given out that they are going to puiid s5o. 900 plant at wetumpka, and that pos s,bly the capacity of their present plant here will be decreased.
 The lumber concern owns 7.ooo acres of timber land in Fillmore county ana as stated by the management. have long had the intention of doubling the capacity Of ,ts nlant here. so as to clear away the rr,,,ors county land But, since the pass age of the Greater Montgomery bill by inc late legislature, the site of the com ,,anv,s plant has been taken into the city ,,r,,ts meaning a large increase in their taxes.

crnn Prospects in Alabama.

There are no complaints of want of moisture in this state, but from all points of it come reports of backward ness in chopping out, and the presence of grass and weeds. The crop will probably be three weeks late unless the season be unusually favorable and pushing. and cultivation unusually thorough.
 The crop is probably all planted, and weather conditions will be great fac tor in the situation from this time on in this state. The bacl1wardness of the season has operated to reduce the acreage, and if this state makes more than a million bales It will do better than many now anticipate.
 The conditions here are practically the conditions through the cotton belt east of Texas. Texas is a vast empire, and 1t has all sorts of weather, with the boil weevil thrown in, and it has to be reckoned with on another basis. But in the rest of the cotton belt it is safe to say that the crop is late-that chop ping is not yet accomplished, and that conditions as whole are by no means favorable. The development of the plant will depend of course upon the proper admixture of warm suns and moisture. There are still great possi- bilities in the growing crop, but the start is not brilliantly promising.

PRoDDlNo PENNYPACkER.
From the Boston Herald.

From the Boston Herald.
 The press of the entire country owes a large debt of enthusiastic gratitude to the newspapers of Pennsylvania for the valiant fight they are putting up against Pennypacker and his muzzle. Without exception, they are faying the governor with all their keenest weapons. Cartoons, squibs and limericks supplement the heavier artillery. They are holding him up to ridicule and contempt, with the deliberate purpose of provoking him to test the muzzle law in the courts. If there is any virtue or validity in It's pro- visions which impose heavy damages for injuring a persons feelings, Pennypack- CT Is clearly entitled to the full benefit thereof. The whole force of public oblo- ouy and contempt has fallen on him. The newspapers are all ready and anxious for the fray, and they will not be happy until Pennypacker has summoned them into court. It is obviously Pennypacker' 8 duty to turn and rend his impudent ad- yersaries If he can. Come on, Penny nackert

PosTHUMoUs CHILDREN.
Washington Times.

From the Washington Times.
 Posthumous children are frowned upon by German law as set forth by the new imperial code, which declares that only those children shall have a right to their fathers heritage who have been born prior to his demise. Attention has just been called to. this particular provision of the law by the posthumous birth of a son to the late Prince Wolfgang Stol- berg. who was found dead with the top of his head blown off through the dis charge~of his gun only a few days after the demise of his own father. Prince AL son.
 The newborn infant. who has thus made his appearance in the world nearly five months after the death of It's father. has. according to the law of the land no right to the chieftainship of the prince ly house of Stolberg and to the vast es- tates and immense fortune that go there with But the mother of the child-that is to say. the widowed Princess Wolf gang Stolberga-and her legal advisers have already put forward the pretention that members of mediatized houses of Germany--that is to say families exercis- ing rights of petty sovereignty prior to the beginning of the nineteenth century are governed in matters of succession, marriage. etc, by their own family stat utes enacted by the adult male members of the house and only subject to modi- fication by them.

countrv Stores and Free Delivery.

The Investigations or at least the charges in the postofice department 20 to show that the superintendent of free delivery collected the addresses of country residents in the interest of mail order houses in the chief cities of the land, Of course this was all wrong. The government is not con ducted for the purpose of giving mail order houses undue advantages, but it is conducted for the benefit in part of the farmers who are living along free delivery routes.
 The country merchant claims that he is being hurt by rural free delivery in order that mail order houses in the larger towns may thrive. This is hard ly A fair statement. Free delivery brings the farmer for the farmers good in touch with the rest of the world and especially in touch with merchants who carry larger stocks of goods and sell perhaps at lower prices. This is mod ern development, and if the country merchant be hurt by progress he will have to stand the loss. It is the farmer that free delivery is expected to serve primarily, and if the farmer can not be served acceptably without bring ing loss to the country merchant then if is the country merchants loss, and there is no help for it. It is the sur yival of the Attest again.
 The Age-Herald desires to see the country merchant prosper, but free de- livery has come to stay, and the farmer is it's chief beneficiary, and while the postofice department has undoubtedly unduly favored mail order stores, yet it is plain the country merchant must get ready to meet his new competitors, or else he must stand losses in trade in the course of fair and open con test

Cotton Prices Hereafter.

The bulls say consumption has over taken production-that the world is not now growing enough cotton. The bears say present prices are artificial, the result of bold speculation and op- tion selling. Now, who shall decide? Who shall say what the golden mean is?
 "When a million and more bales, D says the New York Commercial, Of cotton options are sold in five-hour market day, with little or no business in the meantime in the product itself, the situation is both abnormal and un- healthy" The Commercial goes on to show that print-cloths. are selling at one-eighth of a cent yard less than they were sold at one year ago, and yet raw cotton is worth two cents more 2 pound.

 ONE people will say that men go HH for recreation. True enough. but V that Is a platitude, a shallow gen. erality. There are all sorts of recreations. But what one of. them holds mass of people in business hours. day after day for season, and season after season2 Men go wild over golf, and not long time ago a Boston manufacturer failed because he could not keep at his desk. But every one knows that the golf spirit is on the wane, and that an attack of the fever has its limits-with some month, with others a year-and there is very large class of immunes Taking base ball in its own class, that of out of door sports, it Is no exaggeration to say that 1t Is the one game which holds it's clientele of enthusiasts year after year with so little huctuation that the cause Is mystery. For some years there has been waning of interest, 1t seemed, In the country, and many thought the great American game was about to be sup planted and go to join bicycling, eroquet and all such since the days of the turkey shoot and the barn raising, but this sea- son there is a greater enthusiasm all over the country than was ever known be- fore, and so far the attendance at games in all leagues major and minor has been unprecedented. A generation has come and is going since the great Ward was known from ocean to ocean-and still the game lives, the great American game.

Siuns of the Times.

The United States Investor calls at tention to the assignment of Robert B. Treat, sole proprietor of the Centre vile. Rhode Island, cotton mills. He had been rated very high financially, and no doubt his assets will prove sui ficient to meet his liabilities. The h. vestor then goes on to say:
 "one interview with MT. Treat is to the effect that the embarrassment Is the re- suit of southern competition. He IS re- ported as stating that for some time past
 he has been unable to compete with the cheap labor and long hours of the south ern mills Personally, we should be dis posed to accept this explanation with con siderable hesitation. It is a fact how ever. that large and intelligent body of northern cotton manufacturers have for some years been contending that their in- dustry was in a more or less precarious condition on account of the causes just mentioned; and it will be recalled that in 1898 the Hon. T. Jefferson Coolidge and others memorialized the legislature of Massachusetts to lengthen the hours of labor and to diminish the taxation to which cotton manufacturers are subject ed, their argument being that the industry in Massachusetts was doomed if some such relief was not afforded. We were not disposed to attach much importance to these views at the time, and our feel ing In the matter has not changed mate rially since then"
 Other theorists say the failure is due to the ballooning going on in the cotton market, but while it is easy to see why such work might lead to the temporary closing of the Centreville mill, yet it Is not easy to see why it should create l in so short time an assignment in such high quarters. The greater prob- ability is that all New England cotton mills are feeling the competition of the southern mills. At the recent meeting of southern operators in Charlotte it was made known that southern mills are prosperous, earning almost without exceptions comfortable dividends. This surely Is not the case in New England, and perhaps it is best to admit what must soon be apparent, namely, the mills should come to the cotton fields, because the cotton fields cannot be moved to the New England mills
 There should be more southern mills. It is a great opportunity and great industry and it belongs here as fully and as plainly as the cotton seed oil industry does. The seed is bulkier than the lint, and the seed movement was speedier than the lint movement, but in the long run the lint will be spun amid the fields in which it is grown.

FASCINATIONIN THE CRACK
 OF BAT AND THE LONG HIT

before. There Is never any doubt about the outcome; the bulls always gore the horses, the banderillos always plant the barbed sticks in the bulls necks and the matador always kills the bulls Now and then a bull will main or kill a toreador, but that is so seldom that 1t cannot be that that the people go to see. It is the love of combat which stirs the Latin blood and the Spanish cruelty which delights in the spectacle of bloodshed and death. Wherever Spanish blood is predominant there one will find the bull fight It suits the Spanish temperament. The Austrian and the Russian love their racing and all that pertains to horses. the German Is fond of the crashing pins of the strike and the nice calculation of making spare out Of bad break, the English man cannot be weaned from his dogged game of cricket and helter-skelter sort of foot ball. It is all to the temperament. And what, then, is 1t in base ball which appeals to the American temperament?
 Perhaps there is an answer to this in conversation which befell in Cleveland several years ago, when delays of travel chanced to bring four National league teams together in the same hotel. The subject of any players popularity and the cause was up. There were four of the most popular men in the game in the crowd, certainly four men who ought to know One thought the man who made sensational catches in the field and startling stops in the infield won popu- larity; another thought 1t was reliabil- ity; another thought it was reliability and steadiness and base running; third felt sure mans carriage, quicKness and cleanness in movement and play did the trick, while fourth thought 1t was put outs and assists that were the best pleas CTS of the crowd
