MAJOR COLE AT ADRIAN
Receives Letter Telling of Marvellous
 Chicago Miracle.

The Daily Telegram of Adrian, Mich, publishes an interesting article in which the name of Major Cole, the evangelist who will be remembered by many Phoenix people is mentioned. The article follows:
 Two Sundays ago, while preaching, Maj. Cole read an article from the Rams Horni also letters from Rev. Dr. Gray and pr. Jacoby, of the Moody Bible Institute, concerning the young man Renfro, of Chicago, who defied God to strike him deaf and dumb if there was d God, and who immediately fell to the floor deaf and dumb.
 The major has the following state ment from the physician who was call ed.
 Chicago, June 21, 1904
 Dear Sir: Replying to yours of the 1th, the account as given in daily press is correct. The man was yet on the floor when 1 arrived, and did not talk, and said by writing he could not hear; but l gave it as my opinion that it was but a passing nervous at tack, functional only, but as he has not regained either faculty yet, it puts a different phase on the matter.
 Scientifically, it is hard to explain his affiictiOn since he lost both hear ing and speech; for the centers in the brain which control these two facul- ties are not close together, and there are centers in between these two which preside over senses and facul- ties which he did not lose.
 Other than the loss of hearing and speech, he was that night, and is since, all right.
 Following his remarks, the time was opportune for q visitation from God; whether it was or not I do not pretend to say. Too many are too quick to make rash statements to dis believe and blaspheme. And, as say, science does not offer a good ex- planation in this case, SO I give the facts and allow your own, conclusions.
 Respectfully,

PHOENIX JUNIORS WON
Defeated the South End Athletics in Yesterdays Game.

The Phoenix Juniors, Q kid nine that was defeated at Congress last Sunday, and hitherto known as the Crescents, achieved creditable victory at East lake park yesterday by swamping the South End Athletics by a score of 15 to 4. The superior team work Of the Juniors and the star pitching of Gra- ham, who struck out fifteen during the contest, brought home the laurels and retired the Athletics to q rear pew. where they may remain in shamefaced obscurity while the Juniors are re- trieving their lost honor with Congress.
 Graham had good control and pulled his team out of several bad holes, one particularly dangerous, when with the bases full and three balls on the bat- ter, he famed out his opponent
 The Athletics played cratic ball, committed numerous fumbles, and could not connect with the bende.s served by the Junior pitcher. They started out well, but lost their prestige in the second by taking an aerial High; and allowed seven Juniors to find the home plate.
 The Congress visitors are scheduled to cross bats with the Juniors at East lake next Sunday and will face a hard proposition in attempting a second de- feat of the local kids, who are hoping to return them to their place in Con gress a wiser but much wearier aggre- gation of ball players.

Raleigh Post: The cotton crop of
the Old North State the past season
was worth forty millions of good
sound dollars. The farmers realized
fully thirty millions of this sum,
striking the average betwixt fuctua-

fully thirty millions to our farmers.
This added to the income from to-

It Was the Coolest Winter on Record,
Says the Weather Bureau.

The winter of 19O3-19O4 was in
reality the coolest on record since
meteorological observations began to
be Systematically taken, namely in
1872.
The mean temperature for the
three winter months is 36.9 degrees
which is the lowest on record; the
previous nearest approach to such a
low winter mean occurred in 1928
with 37.S degrees. Yet the absolute
minimum temperatures recorded this
year were not noteworthy, having Of
ten been surpassed on previous occa-
sions, the low temperatures we're
rather the result of the complete alb
sence of the usual periods of a few
warm days that generally occur dur
ing our winters. 1t is remarkable
that the cold weather was not accom-
panied by much precipitation, though
the average snowfall (unmelted) for
the winter, s inches, was somewhat
larger than usual. The deficiency in
rainfall for the four months was over
5 inches. The effect of the dry
weather during the fall was greatly
to delay the seeding of winter wheat
and oats, while the early cold pre-
vented termination and gave the ce-
real a very late start.-Weather Blu

Salisbury Cor. Charlotte Observer:
Record-breaking sales of fertilizers
for the new cotton crop n being
made by Salisbury dealers. Hereto
fore Rowan has been primarily a
grain county, but the wheat crop has
been short for several successive
years, and now the farmers are turn
ing to cotton TO a great extent,
tempted by the prospect for contin-
ued high prices. The normal crop
of the county is about 5000 bales,
but from present indications enough
will be planted to make nearly twice
as much if the year is good and a
suficiency of labor can be obtained;
That the last named condition will
be realized is very hard to believe.
