Best Cough Medicine for Children

When yon buy a cough medl'
cine for small children you want
one in which you can place i'm
plicit confidence. You want one
that not only relieves, but cures.
You want one that is unquestion-
ably harmless. You want one
that is pleasant to take. Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy meets
all of these conditions. There is
nothing so good for the coughs
and colds incident to childhood.
1t is also a certain preventive and
cure for Group, and there is no
danger whatever from whooping
cough when it is given. 1t has
been used in many epidemics of
that disease with perfect sue
cess. For sale by G. w. Grier.

The Best Attraction.

Kate Claxton and "The Two
Orphans" are names almost indis-
solubly linked in the minds of
theatergoers by long and success
full association. Miss Claxton be-
gan to play the role of the blind
Louise in 1879, and, with occas-
ional excursions into other plays,
she has kept before the people in
that character for twenty-four
years. She appears here in fare
well revival on Wednesday even
ing, and gives but one perform
ance. There is said to be a strong
company of players. Every part
is taken with ability and appre-
citation, and every striking situa-
ton in a play whose great inter-
est depends upon such, is hand
led to the best possible advantage.
A well-known writer recently
said of her performance: "With
the same vim, fire, dash and emo
ton that characterized her work
20 years ago, Kate. Claxton ap-
peared at the opera house yester-
day afternoon and evening for the
first time in fifteen years There
were nearly a thousand female
auditors, and 999 of these shed
copious tears, which they tried
vainly to hide when the lights
were turned on after the acts. The
men folks there, too, wept, and
thereby hangs a tale 1t is a tale
of how the good old play retains
its hold on the theatergoing pub
lie. There is perhaps only one
more of the old plays that will
approach "The Two Orphans, "
and that is east Lynne. u" They
belong to peculiarly emotional
rank, and are the nearest things
to the immortal in modern plays.
Her supporting company is as
good as any on the road, and the
staging of the play impossible to
be improved upon" This will be
her farewell appearance here, and
is limited to one performance.

THE GOOD TIME.

The good tine is Just over yorder
Where the light In tie Gear heaven
shines;
The blithe birds are singing.
The glad bells are ringing,
And the WIND whispers sweet to the vinesl
There is never the ghost OF a sorrow.
And Love is reality sweet,
And heaven zeems so near
That the angels we hear
And their songs In our hearts we repeat.
The souls that through trouble have
%striven,
They rise to an infinite height;
Love-gifted and strong,
With no sigh in their song.
They dream In the lilies and light!
The deep wings Of Peace brood above them.
And never a thorn's In the sod;
They pass to the glory
OF heavens own story,
The beautiful gardens Of God!

King Crawford, the negro being
confined In the county jail waiting
the action of the court in q lunaoy
charge, does not seem to improve and
today County Physician J. W. Pend

Crawford was arrested more than
seven weeks ago in a negro restaurant
near First street near Broadway, and
o. his case was mild, the county physi-
clan recommended that he be kept in
Jail a while to allow for improvement.
No change for the better has been not

New York, June 14.-The cotton mar
ket started weak to-day at a decline
of IA points on the old crop, and l to
on the new. This declining ten
dency was in response to rather I'M
favorable cables from the English mar
ket. There were apprehenstons that
the bureau report would be less bear
ish than looked for and the market
was subject to supporting orders, the
new crop months advancing. The re-
port, however, was fully as bearish
as looked for and consequently there
was a rather bearish feeling in the
late market, but the movement of
prices reflected two sides to the spec
ulation, the fluctuations at times be-
ing decidedly irregular. Some stop or
ders were uncovered during the day
and this served to encourage the shorts.
On the lower levels, however, Wall
street and room interests bought quite
good deal of cotton to cover short
contracts. The late market was quiet

The very active demand for resins
that has marked that market for the

the result that at the first call prices
not only advanced all along the line
21sc over the closing prices Of the day
before, but in the afternoons business
another advance from top to bottom
was reported 21zc in all cases except
those of w. w. and W. G., which
sold generally at an advance of sc, and

all the holdings of factors were taken.
The market opened firm with sales of

without further sales. The receipts
were S,S41, and the exports, 6l3.
The spirit market. too, displayed a
strong undertone. The opening was
firm at 53Ac, the closing figure of the
previous day, with sales of $50 and
the closing firm, with additional sales
Of 145. The demand was good because
of the fact that number of exporters
were in the market and it was made
the better because some factors were
out for supplies to cover contract de-
liveries. After the close of the market
everything was taken at closing fig
ures. The receipts were 1880 casks, and

J. II. PARKER & co.'s
Daily Cotton Letter TO Hayward,
Wick & Co.

Wick & Co.
New York, June l4.-Liverpool cables
were without special feature,
and sales were small, being
only 5000 bales. Reports from
Manchester are encouraging, and
mills are expected to work the fun
time in the near future.
Our market showed a weak tendency
in the forenoon, but the trading was
on as small scale with no increase in
outside business. The weekly report
was construed as on the whole favor
able. The summary was as follows:
"A further improvement in cotton is
generally indicated throughout the
belt. In portions of Louisiana, Texas
and Oklahoma, however fields are be-
coming foul while the crop Is in need
of rain in portions of Alabama. In
the central and eastern districts the
plants continues small, but is now
growing rapidly. Boil weevils are still
numerous in southwestern and central
cotton counties of Texas and in some
sections are doing considerable dam
age" The increase in boil weevil is
the bearish facter in the situation at
the moment during the afternoon, quite
a sharp upturn took place on local SELL
ers attempting 10 cover. but we could
see no evidence of buying for an adj
vance.
These quick and sharp fluctuations
are to be expected from day to day
and no especial Importance should be
attached to them. We see nothing in
the situation to stimulate buying, and
as long as crop and weather reports
continue favorable. we think 1t more
prudent to sell on the strong sports,
but would advise taking profits on
moderate declines. in fact, it looks like
a scalping market for the present.

Four Chief Inspectors.
The committee in charge of the Bu-

appoint a chief inspector at Savannah,
one at Jacksonville. one at Bruins
wick and one at Ferndndina. The es-
fahliGhnnanf IF ht1reanS IF inCnarfinp
is the result of a measure introduced
before the association by Samuel A.
Sizer. of Jacksonville, at the April
meeting. A committee was appointed
to investigate and report, and Mr..

ing to have a uniformity of inspection
which will be final.
Under the present methods of in

the man who bears the brunt of I'M

proposed method there is reason to
hope that all parties commemorative

equally in so far as the matter of in
spection is concerned.
Mills to Close.
The depression in the lumber trade
has been evident for some time, and
all lumbermen have been more or less
discouraged over the prospect. The
cause for the depression is traced gem
orally to the political aspect, such be-
ing generally the case just prior to
a presidential nomination and election.
The reports of members showed the
condition of business unsatisfactory,
and a resolution was adopted shutting
down all association mills one and a
half days of each week during August,
provided the Gulf Coast Association
and the Southern Lumber Manufactur-
ers' Association did the same.
In the evening there was a concaten-
alton of the Hoo Hoos, an order which
all good lumbermen belong, and a gem
eral good time was enjoyed.
The next meeting of the association
will be held at Triton.
