Story of the Famous X X
" ~ Mason and Dixon Line

ciety and q duplicate was made and
sent to the surveyors 10 serve for the
missing marker. Near Big Pool, Nd,
six of the original stones were found
built into the walls Of houses, and two
were serving the purpose OF door steps.
The surveyors camc to the conclusion
that these stones were a part of those
which were left In the vicinity because
Of the lack Of transportation facilities
to cary them to the points where they
were needed. Legal proceedings had to
be resorted to before these stones could
be obtained. At clear Spring, Md, one
Of the stones was found set up in front
of a place OF business. 1t had been
much mutilated, and inquiry developed
the fact that the owner OF the premises
had broken off pieces of the stone from
time to time and pulvcrized 1t TO fur
nish grit for his chickens.
One of the stones which had not been
removed from its original position,
near Mount st. Mary's college, at En-
| mettsburg, Md, had been broken by
relic hunters until little of it remained
above ground, One OF the c~roWnstones
near Pen Mar, Md. had been religious
ly protected by the farmers in the
locality, and after the establishment OF
the mountain resort there was covered
with wire netting to keep off the relic
hunters In many places along the line
the peculiar white appearance of the
stones invited vandalism and the
marking stones had been much broken
by small boys throwing other stones
against them.
One or the most celebrated stones
along the line was dubbed the seces-
sionstone." 1t stands betWeen lSaWn
| Grove and Delta, Pa. 1t is said that
during the week of the fall OF Fort
Sumter and letter M" on the south
side of the stone was obliterated, and,
according TO the local tradition, the
Pennsylvania half Of The stone could
no longer endure the letter M" the
inhabitants of that region %SupposinG
that Maryland would pass into the
southern confederacy,
Mason and Dixon's line became IA
nous as the boundary between the free
and slave states in he bitter contro-
Vcries which ~antedated the civil war.
| Henry Clay frequently referred to it as
such In his speeches In congress. To
this day it is the popular division line
between the north and south OF the

From the Minneapolis Journal.
Here, Togo: come here. sir"
"Togo want g cracker2'
"Hurrah! Hurrah! Togo wins. Togo
by a neck"
'Drat that Togo!"
Remarks like the above are already
to be heard occasionally n oon they
will be common, the first in application
to q dog, the second to a parrot. the
third to a winning, the fourth TO a
losing race horse.
When Admiral Dewey won the battle
Of Manila bay q million dogs n cats
and horse were named after him, n
Dewey, don't kiss me- or Come sit
on my lap, Dewey" or What beautiful
thin legs Dewey has" were sentences
to be heard everywhere. But now
many OF these animals are dead. and
the remainder are too old to get about,
and thus Dewey. as an animals name,
no longer strikes the ear.
Japhn's famous victory Is bound to
make Admiral Togo's name. with its
martial, staccato sound, popular among
animals. Part of the price that the
yellow seaman is to pay for his fame
will be the echolng through the world
Of phrases like Dear little Togo" and
Come, drink your milk, Togo and
Die the bad. bad man kick Togo"

CURING HALTER BREAKING
HORSES

Some horses have the habit of pulling at
their halters when fastened at the manager
and always breaking them. While 1t Is
generally considered that the horse gets
along much better in the box stall where
he IL not fastened at all, 1T Is not always
possible to arrange such a plan so that
something must be done to break the hal
ter-brcaking habit. The following plan is
admitted to work nicely and to break any
horse Of the habit after a few weeks trial.
Take a strong rope long enough for the
purpose and after doubling it, pass an end
each side OF tho horse about midway be-
tween the front and hind legs. Pass the
ends through q ring, then through the
hole in the manscr and then tie the ends

where it received the name of turkey
from the notion that 1t came

UPWARD PRICE OF COTTON

May cotton is selling nearly up to
8 cents, a rise of between $6 and "
from the lowest point of the great
December decline. Cotton is coming
in freely, but the fact that the acre
age is to be decreased and the use OF
fertilizers largely cut down is over
coming the free and abundant supply.
Manipulation is no doubt active In
the present movement. Dan Sully
and J. II. HoadIey are said to be
working together in the effort to rout
the bears and place the bulls in
charge of the market. Mr.. Hoadley
takes a hand at cotton in the resting
spell of his merger scheme in the
iron and steel Industries of the
south. He and Dan. Sully are Old
friends, and .co-workers, and there
are other men in the market who be-
ieve cotton has been selling too low.
The firm of Atwood, Violet q Co.
are bulls on cotton. The change Oi
sentiment in New York is unmIstak-
able, and the large bear Interests in
that city promise tobe supplanted by
those who have been buying per-
sistently i'll the last two months.
On account of the heavy receipts
the chances are that the market will
be a succession of advances and re-
versions, but there is a good prospect
that eight cents will become a ruling
price for spot cotton during the rest
of the cotton year. The outlook for
the next cotton year will become
more and more controlling as we
enter the growing season, and even
now it is having no little influence
in compelling the bear speculators to
cover.

While on the subject of rapid tran
sit it is also interesting to note that
the Southern Pacific railroad has or
sdered a new type of locomotive that
will travel 5000 miles without stop
at an average rate of 100 miles an
hour and over. In the long fight
from New Orleans to San Francisco
the advantage of such locomotive
is apparent. The fastest schedule now
made by the Southern Pacific from

CIRCUS POSTER TRUST.

Trusts have been formed in nearly
every other article, and the circus
poster concerns did not see why a
trust would not fit them as well. So
all the big show printing houses have
been combined in one cOncern-all
but one, the ShoWbrldge LithOgraph-
ing company of Cincinnati. The new
trust is to issue $4,000, 200 in bonds,
q, 900, 900 in freferred stock and 81
600, 900 in common stock fifteen mill
lions of capitalization all told. It is
plain, therefore, that the new trust is
an up-to-date affair of the full New
Jersey pattern.
The trust expects to do 80 per cent
of the theatrical and circus printing
ofthe country. Its asnuse1-E put,wia
be about five million dollars, anu it
expects to reap good profits from
every bit of it. Therefore, it seems,
there has been too much competition
and to small profits. Competition is
TO be cut down to a minimum, and
pr rotts carried to a maXium.
If Oil and beef concerns can elimi.
nate, under the law, competition, GER
tainly circus printers can do likewise,
and as things are going all branches
OFF Industry, except the least desirable
will be organized into trusts, and
then the trusts will be merged, until
at least handful of men, Or possibly
one daring operator like John W.
Gates, will handle the highly pre-
ductive industries of the country.
The farms and small enterprises will
| perhaps be left untouched. but any.
thing capable Of being made to YIELD
large profits will be organized III 3
manner to shut out competition, leav.
ing the consumer 10 pay the freight,
no matter how exorbitant it may be.
