Tickle King Cotton.
Everybody's Magazine.

WY S0
The Southern States furnish
the greater part of the worlds
raw cotton. The variations in
the price of that staple are
startling enough to take the
breath away from the bOldest
Spectator; nor does any reason
able. calculable relation seem to
exist between the size of the crop
and prices. Thus the crops of
1893 and 1899 were about the
same size, q little more than
II ,OO0, 900 bales apiece. The
market was ~''glutted" or going
to be. Cotton was i've and six
cents q pound. In 1903, the
crop was ten million seven hun
dred th0usand-odd bales. about
five per cent. less than that of
1899. Yet there was a terrible
scare" Not cotton enough for
the worlds use. Scarcity in
sight, fifteen, and even twenty
cent cotton predicted. The
crop of 1904 is put at 1882 600
bales, only eight per cent. larger
than that of 1899. Down 60
prices to six and one-half and
seven cents a pound, say half the
price at the close of 1908, and
less than the average price for
the years ~189O-19OO. Where
does our old friend, the law of
supply and demand, come in
Five-cent cotton in 1898,
6fteen-cent in 1903, seven-cent in
1904-O5. Is imagination, rather
than business, the ruler Of cotton
prices?

On Monday last the Home
Mission society. held it's regular
monthly meeting at the Method
list parsonage. The president
Mrs. E. r. Kennedy gave an
enthusiastic talk on the work of
the society, dwelling especially
on the Deaconess department,
describing a visit she paid to a
deaconess home while in New
York, all of which proved very
interesting to those present as
evidenced by numbers of ques.
tions being asked her concerning
the work. Mrs P. B. TOrian,
Miss Sallie Torian and Mrs.
DObbin were welcomed as new
members into the society.
The secretary, Mrs. Grow
Girard, reported $287. Is as hav-
ing been collected during the
past year. Miss Fadra Holmes
was unanimously elected agent
for Our Homes" the organ of
the Home Mission Society.
The WOman's Board of Home
Missions will hold it's annual
meeting at Montgomery. Ala,
April II to 20, at Court street

Mr.. Robt. Hunter, in his
recent book, Poverty" gives
some facts and figures calculated
to startle the easy going. He
estimates that at least ten mil
lions of the citizens of the United
States are in acute poverty and
are suffering, not only for the
comforts, but for the actual
necessities of life. In 1899
eighteen per cent of the people
in New York state were reci-
pients of public or private

A Little TabascO

n 1lI1lS
THE TRADE INDEX for Feb
ruary contains the following
fattering reference to Green
Heart-Label" extract of TabascO.
This is the brand of Tabasco
sauce manufactured by a New
Iberia company of which a native
and former resident of Lafayette,
Mr.. G. p. Moss, is president and
general manager. There are a
number of Lafayette people who
are interested as stockholders in
this company, and the Green
Heart-Label" is well and favor
ably known in this locality:
The ucces of the New Iberia Ex-
tract of Tabasco Pepper Company in
pOpularizing its Green-Heart-Label"
extract of Tabasco pepper seems to
have given the McIlhenny people q
bad case of nerves." though why q
demonstration of the superior quality
of q competitive article should have
such an effect upon supposedly level
headed business men we are at a loss
to understand. The fact remains,
however, and THE TRADE INDEX is a
resultant sufferer, since Mr.. Nell
benny has been at some pains to
inform our business manager that he
would never again do business with
THE TRADE INDEX, or any other
journal that had had the temerity to
publish the advertisement of his COM
petitOr in the manufacture of Tabasco
Pepper Extract. Now, in cases of

fault of ours that the New Iberia Ex-

have rendered to the trade an
equal in merit to McIlhenny's
TabascO Sauce, nor do we care to be
called to account by Mr.. McIIhenny
because of his business troubles. The
columns of THE TRADE
INDEX are wide open to all reputable
manufacturers of food supplies, and
are at all times glad to do business
them at card rates, but when it
comes to casting out the advertisement I

Years have tended only to ripen,
not wither the sweetness and genuine
interest which surround the events
marked out with such a true and
mastery precision aimed at by James
A. Herne in his fsvorite play, ashore
Acres"
The company which presented the
play at the Dallas Opera House last
night, and will be seen here again at
matinee to-day and tonight, ia under
the management of the authors wife,
Mrs. James A. Herne, and the cast
includes some of those who played
with Mr.. Herne in its original pro-
ductiOn. They, too, have ripened
with the years and give their parts q
homelike delineatiOn 90 finished that
the listener loses sight Of the dual
character and finds himself in the
midst of the rural New England life.
The New England people, SO sturdy
of mold, have furnished the impetus
for most of the plays which deal with
American home life, aud while the
type is confined to the East, still the
pecularities, the combined GOODNESS
and sentiment, gives the best picture
of what is typically American. ashore
Acres" can not soon outlive its
beauty and interest, and by its home
illness and simplicity will appeal to
and please humanity after plays more
sparkling and brilliant will have
paled.
James J.. Galloway, as Nathaniel
Berry, "who had played second fd-
die" to his younger brother since
boyhood, was entirely sympathetic
with the character. The scenes
change from rural peacefulness to
r~estiveness and storm and again to
absolute peace in the last act, when
Uncle Nat locks up, creaks up to bed
and leaves the kitchen lighted only
by the embers in the stove. The end
is the GROWING note of the entire
production and fulhlls of itself the.
motive of the writer in giving . true
picture of h0mely farm life.
The play is beautifully staged and
we'll cast, the four children doing
their parts SO naturally and we'll as
to be enthusiastically encored.-Dal-
las News, March II, 1905.
PROFESSIONALLY the most successful
of the late Games A. Herne's play IS
''Shore Acres" which has become q
veritsble classic, and assuredly in
the pastoral field It's stately beauty
overshadows al its prototypes. There
is SO much that is original and un-
common in this unique comedy-drams
that its remarkable success can
be explained, and the play
deservedly promises to hold the atten-
ton of theatre-goers for many years
to come. One of the most enjoyable
features of ashore Acres," which is
announced for production at the
Jefferson Theatre Wednesday, March
y, is the faultless manner In which it
has always been placed before the
