tablished on the Nile under British aus plees has greatly increased the acreage of cotton cultivation. James Boyle. United States consul at Liverpool. in 8 recent report to the Department of Commerce and Labor notes the claim that there are millions of ecres of cot ton-growing land in the soudan. and that when the projected railroads are completed very large area will at once be put under cultivation. The qualities which can be grown are sim liar to Egyptian and even of a better fibre. it is claimed. He says that fair quantity of cotton from the soudan is expected at Liverpool and Manchester this season. The first consignment of soudanese cotton recently arrived at Cairo from Khartoum. and was declar- ed to be superior in mercerizing quali- ties and in strength to the best Egyp- titan.
 King Cotton doesn't seem to be shak- ing on his throne much this year, but in some other year he may be. The world can't stand his antics much longer.

MORE FUN FOR SOLDIERS.

The soldiers of the United States army are going to have more fun than they have had if a benevolent and be- nefcent government can induce them to. Secretary Root approved the recommendations of tie quartermaster- general of the army for the distribu-
 ton of the fund of about s500,OOO for
 the construction of post exchanges and
 gymnasiums. There are three sets of
 plans for these structures. One pro- vides for a s4O,0OO building. including stores, lecture hall, reading rooms, large gymnasium and baths; another costs about s14.oOO, and has the same features less elaborately equipped; a third costs $500, and is simply a post
 exchange without the gymnasium. The allotment of the funds in the Depart ment of the East, or the present divis- ion of the Atlantic, is as follows: Fort
 Barraneas, Florida, s16,Ooo; Fort Dade, Florida. $5,50O; Fort De Soto, fIoTlda,
 8, 800; Key West Barracks, Florida,
 s, 300: Fort Morgan. Alabama, s5,5Oo; Chickamauga Park, Georgia, s4O,OO0;
 Fort Jay, or old Fort Columbus, in New York harbor, s4oOO0: Fort Fremont, s5, 900; Fort Screven, Georgia, $l4,Oo0;
 Fort Caswell. North Carolina. SoO0,
 and Fort Creole. Rhode Island, S7,0OO.
 The total expenditure contemplated for
 General Corbins division amounts to
 s151, 900.
 l It is interesting to note that the quartermaster-generaFs plans for these
 post exchange gynlnasiums have been so drawn as to provide for the canteen l if congress decides to re-establish that 1 institution. This does not seem likely now to any greater extent than hith- erto, but the military authorities have not abandoned the hope that the War department may be permitted to re- sune the sale of beer and light wine.

I will go and leave the streetways, And the worlds wild, dinsome places, With the hurrying, weary feetways, And the folks of frenzied faces; I will go through darkened spaces. Morning glad, or starlight pale, Through the rivers and the passes, Till find, among the grasses Long sweet sleep among the grasses Of the graves of Inishail. An, ye daunt me with your wonder. And your tolls about you lying 0 ye cities, with your thunder, And your children in you, dying, And 1 weary, ever signing, For the whisper of the West, Where the glow and glamour meeting. And the waves on long shores beating, Are but echoes of the beating Of the lifes blood in my breast. I will plait q roof of rashes
 For the low place of my sleeping, Where the whistful water plashes. Grooming, coodling, laughing, weeping, And the winds from Cruachan sweepin Join their gladness and their vail; Till the angels glory blinds me, And the long sleep comes and finds me, In the tangled grasses finds me, By the graves of lnishail

4 KING III fsNACED.

The cotton-spinning interests of Eng land have been aroused by the high price of cotton to a very lively realiza- tion of their dependence upon the Unit ed States for the raw material of their industry. Of all the manufactured ex- ports of the United Kingdom cotton goods are chief in importance, and any sign of disaster to that industry, or any curtailment of it's natural expansion, commands the attention not only of the manufacturers immediately interested, but of the statesmen and financiers. and all who have concern for the pres tige and rank of England as an indus trial power. The British Cotton Grow | ing Association, with headquarters at Manchester, is raising fund, to which $150,0O0 is already subscribed, but which it is proposed to make $25O,oOo for the purpose of conducting experi- mental farms in different regions where cotton culture promises well. The government is in full sympathy with the movement, and will give it all
 possible aid. The most important re-
 suits are hoped for in Africa by an in
 crease of the Egyptian crop and the
 development of the industry ill the soudan. The wonderful system of wa

INSECT PESTS IN soUaH AFRicA.


 Life in South Africa isn't all pie. Per haps no other place suffers more from insect pests. Of these the tick, which infests sheep, goats. and cattle, is the worst. A well-known Natal farmer is reported to have said: If the govern ment offered me to take away all the diseases, or the ticks, whichever l chose. I would say, Leave the diseases and take the ticks '' Hitherto no remedy for this torment has been found, but one is reported in the Cape of Good Hope Agricultural Journal from Aliwal North. A farmer writes that he had a flock of goats badly in- fected, but happened to drop" on cure in the shape of wild garlic. He gave the animals affected a small quantity; the ticks were not killed. but they dropped off the goats, and no further loss was suffered. Next year when the tick season came around his goats escaped injury. If this experi- ence be confirmed it will be of high im- port to all South Africa. The govern- ment of Cape Colony is enforcing ad- ditional stringent regulations to pre- vent the introduction of plant pests. Much is to be hoped from the importa- tion of plants and seeds from other lands, but it is of the utmost moment that the germs of plant diseases shall not be imported with them. Certain plants are prohibited absolutely, among them stone fruits from the United States and Canada, and peaches from any foreign country. New plants are to be examined on landing and disin- fected, and everything on which dam gerous pest is found is to be inamedi- ately destroyed. Costly experience has proved the necessity of these meas ures.
 South Africa hasn't yet got the cotton boil weevil, but that is perhaps only because she hasn't any cotton.

ENGLISH WoMEN sMOKkRs.

Just now London is stirred by core
 spendence and articles in the papers on
 the smoking women, and the serious
 journals and magazines are taking
 sides. It would appear that the habit |of smoking is growing among women
 and the girl schools apparently are
 reeking with cigarette smoke. These
 girls do not seem to be abashed by let
 ting the world know of their habit, and
 many of them glory in relating how
 many girls in their school smoke. Doc
 tors have taken sides pro and con and
 the discussion waxes hot It would ap-
 pear to be fact that the smoking habit
 already is firmly fixed in London so-
 ciety, and it is no uncommon sight to
 see alleged smart women light a cigarette in certain public restaurants
 and hotel cafes. In West End restau- rants, where fashionable people lunch land dine every day. women bring out gold jeweled cases and light their favor- |ita Egyptian or Turkish as matter of |course. Many of these women are most fastidious about the brands they smoke, land in numerous cases West End tobac- conists mix special tobaccos to please distinguished customers. In almost all cases the most popular cigarettes for women are gold tipped or coated at the end with thicker paper. Very few women use holders: it is not consider ed the right thing. At most of the pri- |vate dances held in town cigarettes are generally smoked in the intervals be- tween the dances. Men and girls com |pete with each other in blowing smoke |rings and letters in the air. A peers daughter is accomplished in the art of smoking the cigarette with the lighted lend in her mouth. Smoking has been quite a common practice in women's clubs for some time. and rooms are set apart especially for smoking.
 And so forth and so on. There is no discussion of the smoking of men. They seem to have a license to smoke. Per- haDs it will by and by be understood that women have too.

There are several ways of looking at some things. The Fl Paso Herald is informed that some of the Fl Paso policemen stand in with the bunco men. "A contractor named Schoonmaker tells 1t that the city's chief of police, Woot- ton. recently said in his hearing: T think bunco men are a good thing for a city situated as Fl Paso is; the bunco men get money from strangers that might not otherwise be left here and the money is put in circulation in this city, thus adding to the general pros Derity.''

A young woman, secretary to a rep- resentative, went to see the President the other day on some business for her employer. She was shown into the Presidents office and sat down near the door, while the President talked with a man she didn't know. The man asked the President about something. sNo," shouted the President, so em- phatically that the windows rattled. There was a lively discussion and the young woman thought the two men were coming to blows. She arose and began to tiptoe out of the room.

Concerning the new line between Scranton and Pittston, Pennsylvania, which the Westinghouse company has lately outfitted with electric apparatus an officer of the company says that be- tween Scranton and Pittston the troll ley makes the trip in ninety minutes, while this third-rail electric does the trick in nineteen minutes. Between Scranton and Wilkesbarre tile third rail beats the schedule of the steam road by several minutes. This same officer insists that ''We are on the verge of wonderful development of electric traction on trunk line railroads. At present steam is more economic for heavy freight, but, with the rapid de- velopment in electric traction it may soon be supplanted by electricity.'
