THE COTTON CROP.

The News Orleans Times-Demo-
crat prints letters from all parts Of
the cotton belt, showing, or aiming
to show, the condition of the crop at
the end of July. 1t sums up the sit
uation in these words: "The crop
has great possibilities in either di-
rection. With absence of boil
weevil, and a late frost, a large out
turn may be had; with serious injury
from the little pest and early kill
ing temperature, ar immense disas-
ter must be reckoned with" The
rains have been general, and the
crop is coming on finely, but still
there will not be a free movement
before the fifteenth of September.
The crop is Enthusiastically late,
although the summer months as q
whole have been favorable.

A MORNING TONIC.

(Rev. Henry Van Dyke, D. d.
Suppose that the Christian life, in
its daily manifestation, should come
to be marked and known by SIM
plicity and happiness. Suppose that
the followers of Jesus should really
escape from bondage to the evil
spirits of avarice and luxury which
infect and torment SO much of our
complicated, tangled, artificial mod
ern life. Suppose that instead Of in
creasing their wants and their de-
sires, instead of loading themselves
down on life's journey with so many
bags and parcels and boxes of super
fuous luggage and bric-a-brac that
they are forced to sit down by the
roadside and gasp for breath; instead
of wearing themselves out in the
dusty ways of competition and vain
show, Or embittering their hearts be-
cause they ear not succeed in getting
into the weary race of wealth and fash
ion,-suppose instead of all this they
should turn toquiet ways, lowly pleas
ures, pure and simple joys, "plain
living and high thinking" Sup
pose they should truly find and
clearly show their happiness in the
knowledge that God loves them and
Christ died for them and heaven is
sure, and so set their hearts free to
rejoice in LIES common mercies, the
light Of the sun, the blue of the sky,
the splendor of the sea, the peace of
the everlasting hills, the song of the
birds, the sweetness OF flowers, the
wholesome SAVIOR of good food, the
delight of action and motion, the re-
freshment of sleep, the charm of
music, the blessings of human love
and friendship rejoice in all these
without fear or misgiving because
they come from God and because
Christ has sanctifed them all by His
presence.

Durand, Mich, Aug. An air
Brake on the second section of Wal
lace Brothers circus train refused to
work in the Grand Trunk railway
yards here early to-day, causing a
collision between the two sections in
which twenty-five people were kill
and over a dozen injured.
The circus travels in two trains of
about 35 cars each. After the perform
ance at Charlotte the two trains left
for Lapeer over the Grand Trunk
road, the second section leaving q
half hour after the first. It was 3:45
this morning when the first section
pulled into the Grand Trunk yards
here. A red light was hung on the
rear car to stop the second section.
The engineer of the second section
says he saw the light and applied his
air brake, but it refused to work and
the train came upon the first section
with a terrible crash.
The rear car of the first section con-
tanned the train crew and the next
two were filed with sleeping circus
employees. The loss of life occurred
in these cars.
One of the wrecked cars of the
second section was occupied by five
elephants and several camels. One
Of the elephants and two camels
were killed outright, while the other
animals and their trainer escaped.
The other demolished cars con-
tanned canvas Or wagons. There
was comparatively little excitement
among the animals.
The Hotel Richelieu was convert
ed into a temporary hospital, and
ready hands done all they could for
the suffering.

POPULARITY.

The popularity of Senator German
in the South is unmistakable, and
his homecoming from a trip across
the sea is the occasion for many IA
vorable expressions. Congressman
Bankhead, who knows Alabama bet
ter perhaps than any other man, does
not hesitate to say that this state will
send a German delegation to the
national convention. The national
delegates, it should be remembered,
are to be selected in primaries, the
convention system having been abol-
ished in this state.
Senator Gorman's popularity is
wholly due to his confessed fitness
for public service. Starting as a page
he has steadily risen in place and
public favor until he is now the dem
ocratic leader in the highest delibe-
rative body in the world. When he
was returned to the senate last year
he was at once and with the approval
of all democratic senator's made lead
er of the democratic side. 1t is but
natural that a man ernineptly fitted
for leadership should be sought in
this emergency in the party in ma
tional politics.

WEARING OF BADGES.
View Of the Judge Advocate General
of the ARMY

The War Department has decided that
there is no legal authority for the wearing
by officers and men In uniform of the dis
tinctive badge Of the Society OF Foreign
Wars. This question was referred to the
judge advocate general. who finds two joint
resolutions Of September Is. 1890 and jan
uary II. 1903, respectively, and the act OF
February 2, 1901, bearing on the wearing of
badges. TINS legislation referred to the IN
sigma Of societies and other organizations
of the war Of the revolution. Of 1872 Of
Mexico of the rebellion, the Spanish-Amer-
lean war. the Philippine Instruction and
the China relief expedition
The right of officers and men. members of
the Society of Foreign Wars, to wear the
badge of the society in uniform is of very
doubtful legality, says the judge advocate
general, who advises the War Department
that without further congressional action
the badge of that society cannot be consid-
cred as coming under the joint resolutions
and the act of Congress mentioned.
