Georpe Morris In Trouble.

George Morris, young man who for
,erly lived in this city. is wanted by
ne Truckee authorities for robbing
le Truckee express Office of $1,000,
ewelry and other valuables some
lonths ago
The young man has been employed
g an assistant to Mr.. Winters the
'egular Wells Fargo Agent, and while
q this capacity robbed the safe of the
mount stated. After the cash was
missing q close watch was kept upon
the young man and a constable went
through him in Alameda a few days
ago and found the missing cash.
Morris related a story to the effect
that his wife had given him the cash
before leaving Truckee, but when the
young woman was asked about the
matter she absolutely denied it, thus
fixing the theft upon Morris.
The theft baffled the Wells Fargo
people for some time and it was only
by a thorough investigation and a
long watch that the youth was run
to cover Morris, after returning to
Truckee and giving over to Mr.. Win
tiers and the Company the articles and
coin he had. stolen, disappeared and
has not yet been found. His mother,
who formerly lived in this city, has
stated that he is under age and that
she will use her endeavors to keep the
officers of his trail
George Morris lived with his mother
in Carson a couple of years ago and
will be remembered as the boy who
came from Truckee a year or so ago
with young girl with whom he had
eloped. The officers received tele-
grams not to issue a license to them
as they were both under age and the
parents of the girl opposed the match.
They went to Genoa, but were fore
stalled but finally wandered down to
Dayton where they were welded. They
then returned to Truckee where Nor
ris has been employed ever since.

WHAT CAN HE DONE.

What can be done is Indicated by what has been done in Buffalo, where a wife has appealed to the courts for commission of her husbands person and estate. According to the wife's ev- idence. the husband had exactly six teen hundred and three 'jags'' in the eight and a half years of welded life. She said he was drunk once a week for the first six months, twice week for the next six months, and three times a week for the next year. Then for five years he maintained an average of four times a week, followed by period of forty weeks when it was increased to five times, and the last hundred and three days he had been drunk every day.
 It is evident that this wife didn't in- terfere any too soon. If that man had been let alone he would in time have been drunk every hour.

A Pertinent Inquiry.
To Editor Of the Journal and Courier

TO Editor Of the Journal and Courier:
 This is indeed cold world! We read with regret that some self-appo pointed selectors of a candidate for pr. Depew's s seat on the Yale Corporation have gone so far as to practically decide upon one to fill his chair before it's vacant. We remember when he was elected to this position some of the ones who now seem to deem him unfit to longer hold his chair literally tunabied over themselves in telling of our Cfiauncey's greatness. Why the change? Is 1t because he was appointed counsel to the Equitable As- suranee Society by Henry B. Hyde sev- era1 years ago and rendered valuable services to this society for which he re- ceived the modest salary of $2o.0O0 a year? Wasn't he working for the Equi- table when he was elected a member of the Yale Corporation? If he was good enough then, why isn't he good enough now, when he isn't working for the Equitable? 1y a5
 We bet he is just as good an after dinner story teller as he ever was and just as good judge of champagne as he used to be, and that his connection with the Equitable has improved these useful qualities rather than lessered them, He is in perfect health, his men-

 MORE COTTON COMTNG

This is another good year for the cotton growers of the South, and not so good for those who have to buy cotton. But the time seems to be con1- ing when the southern cotton growers will not have the world at their feet. The first annual report of the British Cotton Growing Association shows that nearly a million dollars has been put into the enterprise of supplementing the American supply with cotton grown in British colonies and possess sions. The association is trying to raise more money in order to bring the capital available up to some 8, O0O
 In the two years that have elapsed since the organization was formed many thousands of acres have been planted in cotton and much useful ex- perience has been gained. During the coming season a crop of 25,000 bales, worth $1,25O,0O0, is expected, and much larger crops are counted upon in the near future. Present results are en- couraging. It is believed that the British Empire can produce cotton of sufficient quantity and of suitable quality for the needs of Lancashire. So confident is this belief that the shareholders are promised dividends on their investment as we'll as new
