Georgia Cotton Crop.

A well known travelling man OF At
lanta, for a number Of years in the
cotton business in that city and Ma
con, who has just returnd to Atlanta
from a two months trip to all parts OF
Georgia, declares that the outlook Tor
anything Ike full cotton crop in
that state Is the gloomiest since the
civil war. With the single exception
of a small area Of territory around Al
bany, Fort Valley and Bleckley, there
is no indication of an average crop. In
some sections he says not more than a
third Of the cotton acreage has been
planted, and what seed have been p1t
In the ground has only partially ger
minated, owing to the prolonged
drought. Ee gave it as his opinion
that cotton would call again for Is
cents per pound before Christmas, ow.
ing to the calamitles to the crop in
Georgia and the weevil pest in Texas,
the two large producing states in the
Union.

,Tha WeeYf, Eater.

DR.. Cook says the ant he has dis
covered in South America Is natural
enemy of the cotton boil weeyil, de-
stroying the pest before it reaches the
cotton bolls. DR.. Cook believes that
If the ant can be acclimated In the
United States it will put an end to
the weevil. Secretary Wilson cabled
him to. bring him some of the ants
home with him. They viii be placed
in the Texas cotton fields, and it is
hoped that they will thrive in this
country. If they live through the
winter they will be brought further
north and introduced to a colder cli-
mate. Secretary Wilson has had a
special bulletin printed. 1t says:
IF the cotton ant can survive q long
dry season and perhaps cold weather
in the table-lands Of Guatemala it
might easily learn to hibernate in
Texas, as has the boil weeyil The
ant is much better abler to protect
itself against frost, since it excaVates
a nest three or more feet into the
ground. To take worker ants to
Texas will be evidently very easy
matter, but to secure queens and es-
tabish permanent colonies may re-
quire considerable time and expert
ment. The insect does not do the
least injury to the cotton or to any
other plant, so far as has been, ascer-
tained, and it can be handled with
impunity." The Augusta Chronicle
says the anti-boll-weevl ant may
yet prove the salvation Of the Texas
cotton fields, and the energetic, as
we'll as the sluggish, be called upon to
consider her ways, since it pays" "

Mr.. Cassiano says close inspection
failed to show a single live weevil on

the effects OF the ice cream which they
partook Of heartily on Monday night

EVERYBODY GOT DIAMONDS.
Express Train Showers Village With
Precious Gems.

a special to the New York Times
from Raleigh, N. c., says: News has
been received here that Lucama, a
little town near this city, has been In
a state Of ferment for the past week.
On Monday passenger train was
wrecked near the station and several
cars were destroyed by fire, among
them the express car.
After the fire was put out men,
women and children began to pick
about In the ashes. One man found
a small object which proved to be a
small diamond worth $500. Immedi.
ately it became known that there
were diamonds in the ashes crowds
focked to the scene Of the wreck.
The night before the news was gen
orally known the man who made the
discovery revisited the scene, carrying
a number Of empty sacks. BE filed
them with the ashes OF the car. On
sitting them be uncovered diamonds
to the value Of $4,000, the railroad
people are Of the opinion that the
value of the stones still unaccounted
for is more than double that Of those
already found.
The railroad later placed q guard
around the wreck. The railroad has
not been requested to pay for the
diamonds, nor mas the express com.
pany. It is believed they were stolen
goods being expressed to some point
South, and that the shippers are
afraid to make known their identity
Several lawsuits have grown out OF
the finds. The owner Of the soil says
that the diamonds belong to him un.
less the railroad demands them fol
the real owner. A negro found one
gem valued at a thousand dollars.
The owner. OF the land on which the
wreck occurred sued him for the pos
session Of the diamond, but the negro
won.
