Barn Struck by Lightning.

Last night during the electrical
storm, at about 5:45, the farm barn
of j. I. Hubbell, which is situated
about two miles west of WoIcott viii
lage on the Morrisviile road, was
struck by lightning and burned to
the ground. Lightning entered the
roof of the horse barn and went
through into the COW stable, where
the hired man was milking, the
shock knocking down several of the
cows, the one the man was milking
falling over onto him. The man re-
covered from the shock in time to
unite the COWS and the stock was all
saved with the exception of six hogs.
Mr.. Hubbell had finished haying and
over 60 tons of hay was burned. 1t
is estimated that the entire loss is
$4,000, which is partially covered
by an insurance of $1,000.

SPECULATION IN
COTTON MARKET
Entire Crop Has Been Bought
and Sold Five Times in
Thirty five Days.
New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service.
New York, Feb. ia cotton sta
tistician has been at work over the
figures recorded in the cotton market
by the recent wild speculation and
has evolved some startling facts. For
instance, it is found that within the
last thirty-fve business days specula-
tive transactions on the New York
and New Orleans cotton exchanges
have totaled 100000 bales, or 25,-
100000 pounds. This is about
five times the total crop of the United
States. Taking Is cents as an aver
age price, the value of the cotton foots
up to the enormous total Of $3.50, O00,-
900.
Some extraordinary speculative rec
ords have been made on the New York
stock exchange, but never anything
that could compare with this. Finan-
ciers agree that such speculation is
demoralizing and likely to cause seri-
Gus trouble.
The recent heavy decline in tha
price Of cotton amounts to $22 bale.
Placing the total crop at 100000
bales, there has been a depreciation
in it's value within two weeks Of
$22O,OOO000. Such a slump in SO
short time and without failures is res
markable.

RUSSIA'S GREATEST GENERAL
General Kouropatkin, Minister of War
and Leader of the War Party.

General Kouropatkin : is the I'M
challenged head of the war party in
Russia. He believes in pushing Rus
sian troops to the uttermost ends Of
Asia. 80 t.. = r.
In the movements towards the In
dian frontiers, which have" alarmed
England in recent years; in the alb
sorption of Manchuria, and in the
threatened attacks on Korea, his. hand
is to be plainly seen by any one famil-
lar with Russian politics.
Before becoming minister Of war,
Kouropatkin commanded the Russian
army. He would probably command
1t again in the field in any campaign
that amounted to q national emergen-
cy, for he is unquestionably Russia's
greatest general. 49, ......
He has served in four campaigns
the Russo-Turkish war, the Khivan
expedition and the Khokandese and
Nerve campaigns. .'.f s" -
