cotton market in the United States,
New Orleans being the first.
: The city is clean and orderly and
the population bears the marks Of
ease, refinement and wealth. The
hotels and stores are first class and
appear to be we'll patron ized. This
could scarcely be otherwise as the
planters Of the south hav e had q few
years Of great prosperity both from
good crops and extra prices for all
their products. Milk retails here at
lOc per quart, SC wholesale and beer
very cheap, fine contrast for the
thirsty farmers
All the ice here consumed is man
ufactured in the cities and judging
by the depth of the blocks we have
seen, no 40 dergee below zero could
have shaped them any better.
The city parks are veil kept and
have beautiful shade trees with
Thousands of pet squirrels running
up and down their branches aud
trunks.
We made our return northward to
st. Louis by the ]. c. railroad get
ting the New Orleans express which
arrives at Memphis at Z q. m. daily.
We had a fine opportunity to see
some of southern conditions and
plantation life as we passed through
Tennessee and western Kentucky. 1t
vas the 4tf day of July but the
Negro race had apparently either
forgotten the holiday or his duties
to the occasion as we observed that
every man, woman and child were
engaged in the cotton fields. Some
women and all the men, had a mule
each pulling an old fashioned culti-
vator or hoe harrow while the child
ren we're engaged in h0eing the
corners Of the fields where still re-
mained many stumps. In short all
the land We passed through has been
reclaimed from wood land and in
most cases it. has not been very we II
done.
Their dwellings, too, we're not very
impressive to a visitor being mostly
CONSTRUCTED OF logs and much worse
weather beaten clap siding which
never was treated to even primiDg
coat Of paint.
Putting everything together we
often reflected how much has been
the advancement of the NeIgo race
since enjoying this God given birth
right of freedom SO much spoken of.
But one thing is certain their lot is
cast in a temperate cliamte and as
they saluted US with their red ban
danas waving while our train was
passing. their faces bespoke health
and happiness.
Returning from our southern trip
we enjoyed a few more days sight
seeing at the fair, and we're shocked
to read the report by wire that the
fine steamer, Chalmette had no
chance of ever reaching New Orleans
with her passengers and crew, having
been sunk entirely by striking snag
while nearing Baton Rouge La. not
one life vas lost but her entire cargo
sunk with the boat. Her insurance
was slCO, 600, not enough for the boat
alone.
We got a little surprise at the fair
in meeting two Jamestown men.
Messrs. Game and Klaus, right on the
Pike. The conduct Of both those
gentlemen was faultless This is say
ing good deal considering the
temptations by which they were
surrounded.
