Tramps and Mountains.
A friend OF the man of the street, who has
been surveying In Virginia and West Vir-
glnia for railroads during the past few
years, writes as follows:
you never saw a tramp In a fmoun-

In this mountainous part OF West Vir-
gInia ten years before you left for the
East, think YOU will agree with me,
But lie you don't, ! know what ! an,

even In the daytime, when your family

UTOPIA FOUNDED BY

K LOUISVILLE, November 1l.--After

grade OF cotton the second year. In some
places the stalks yield cotton as late
as the seventh year. but tho staple was
poor.
The labor In South Africa is unsatis-i
factory. The natives work for $3.50 a
month and board. They perform about
one-thi1d as much work as the ordinary
negro In the Soubil. The expensiveness
of transportation seriously retards tho ad-
vancementt Of cotton culture. The ma
chinery is anttquated.
In Egypt, however Mr.. Stinson found
the finest cotton in the world. except the
Sea Island cotton, but the restricted area
and poor machinery will always tend to
prevent Egypt from becoming serious
competitor OF America. The machinery
there, especially the gins. are primitive,
and really harm the staple after 1t Is
gathered. According to Mr.. Stinson the
staple in tho bol.s Is superior to the
American.
The best grade Of cotton raised by him
in Rhodesla was classed MS being worth
half a cent pound higher than Amer
lean middllng, and the Egyptian variety
raised in the same territory equalled tho
best that Is grown along tho Nile, ac-
cording to Portuguese buyer.
Growing is done In the Nile valley al
most exclusively by Irrigation, and every

The crops never reach moro than seven

After their marriage they will spend

When asked as to the truth of the

The ceremony was performed by the
Rev. Samuel Ward, rector Of st.

wedding was a quiet one, only immedi-
ate relatives and friends being present.

company until next June when they
will come to Wildwood and play with

STATE FIREMEN'S ASSOCIATION
Wildwood Was Counted Out by
Twenty Votes for Next
Convention.

The twenty-eighth annual conven-
iton of the New Jersey State Firemen's
Relief Association was held in Atlantic
City during the week, and something
out of the ordinary happened which
came very near bringing the body of
500 men to Wildwood next summer.
The delegates from Wildwood were
Frank Sheppard, Fred d. Schell and
Councilman Harry S. Durham. Holly
Beach was represented by E. w. For
cum, c. A. Norton, William A. Shaw
and Jesse Mathews. The Wildwood
boys took with them six hundred
copies of the Board of Trade folders and
distributed them among the delegates,
thus advertising Wildwood's many
charms and advantages, and endeavor-
ing to secure the convention for this
place next season.
When the great body convened
Frank Sheppard arose and in a master
ly speech swayed the delegates, captur-
ing the good will of the entire conven-
ton. His motion to have the next
convention meet in Wildwood was
seconded by Fred d. Schell, who offer
ed through the courtesy of the Board
of Trade the free use of the new ocean
pier. There was loud cheering for a
moment and it was plain that Wild
wood had won the day, but at a meet
of the executive officers of the conven-
ton later it was learned that Wildwood
had been counted out by 20 votes.
The Wildwood fire boys have donned
their fighting clothes and will go to
Atlantic City again next year deter
mined to win out in the second round.

Miss Emily Smiley is one of the stars
and the bride-to-be. More than a year
ago she was playing Bonita in an am
ateur performance of "Arizona,o given
in Mercantile Hall. One of Sprowles'
friends induced him to go to see the
show, much against his will. 1t was
there that he saw her for the first time.
He was so charmed with her acting
that he asked her to take a place in the
stock company of which he vas man
ager and in which he played the lead

it was not long before they were en-
gagged to be married.
