HOLD YOUR COTTON.
Southern Farmers to Combine tc
Secure IS Cents per Pound.

Columbia. S. G., Nov. 17.-Secretary
+. II. Weston of the South Carolina
division of the Southern Cotton Asso-
citation. in an interview. today, said:
To-day, l am in receipt of instruc-
tons from headquarters in Atlanta to
institute Il movement towards Secur
ing pledges from the farmers to hold
the cotton which they now have on
hand for - cents.
We know that there is a most &C
tive demand for dry goods and that
the mills have not the cotton neces-
sary to run them to fill these con-
tracts. The association considered II
cents fair but not reasonable
price for cotton, but in view of the
very aggressive condition that has
been instituted against cotton in the
last few days it would be absurd for
the Southern Cotton Association to
stand by and see the producers of
cotton throughout the South despoiled
of millions of dollars.
I'VE must convince the spinners of
the world that the price of cotton is
to be fixed by the producer and not
by the SPECTATOR"

Destroys Five-Story Stor-
age Warehouse in Boston.
Three Alarms Sounded and Fire.
men Greatly Handicapped.
Diusomaniac Home Threatened But Flames
Are Confined 10 One Building.

Boston. Nov. ia large five-story
brick building used for storage pur-
poses by the Continental Storage
Warehouse Co., 1886 Washington street,
South End, was ruined by fire which
started at $50, tonight. The building
stood in the rear of the company's
office and occupied large space be-
tween Washington street and Shawmut
avenue, near Waltham street. Show
ers of sparks endangered the congested
tenement house district in the vicinity
and about dozen families at 1886
Washington street and adjoining build
ings had to abandon their apartments.
Three alarms were sounded and al
though the firemen We're handicapped
on account of the lack of entrances to
the property, they were able to prevent
the flames from causing heavy damage
to nearby buildings. The warehouse
was owned by Mary Schlessinger.
During the progress of the fire the
patients in the Washingtonian Home
for Dipsomaniacs, situated near the
warehouse, became alarmed. DR.. Ellis
worth, the superintendent. succeeded in
calming the inmates. The home was
alton appeared SO threatening that Dr.
Ellsworth had the records removed for
safe keeping.
In their haste to leave the apartments
some Of the occupants Of tenements
made their egress through windows
and were assisted to the ground by lad
ders. No one was injured.
The loss on the warehouse is total
and although it is difficult TO estimate
the value of the contents it is thought
that the total on the building and
goods will reach 100000. The building
was insured, as was a portion of the
contents.
While proceeding along Common
wealth avenue on the way to the fire,
District Chief ]. V. Ryan's wagon was
struck by an automobile. Chief Ryan
and his driver, Jos. Mclaughlin, were
thrown to the ground. Neither was Sc
riously injured. The occupants of the
automobile are not known as they i'm
mediately hurried from the scene of
the accident.

IT'S YEARS OLD.
In That Time Concord Congregational
Church Has Had Six Pastors.

Concord. N. H.. Nov. 1.-THE First
Congregational church, this evening,
will begin a celebration of it's 18TH
anniversary, which will continue
through Saturday and Sunday.
The history of this church is unique
because in IFS years it has had but six
pastors. the Rev. Timothy Walker
from 1870 to 1852; the Rev. Israel Ev-
ans. 17S9-1797; the Rev. Asa Mcfarland
179S-1S25; the Rev. Nathaniel Bouton,
1S25-1S61; the Rev. Franklin Aver
1S61-1S97, and the Rev. George Harlow
Reed, the present pastor, who took
charge in 1895.
The church's history began in May,
1726, when a surveying commission
from the Massachusetts, General Court,
after a toilsome journey up the east
bank of the Merrimack river arrived
at high bluff overlooking what is now
known as Sugar Ball Eddy, and held a
religious service. Since about that
period, the church records have been
kept unbroken.

JUDGE MUNGER INDIGNANT
At Sec. Hitehcock's Criticism Of Land
Fencing verdicts.

Omaha, Neb., Nov. 17.-Speaking of
the report that Sec. Hitchcock of the
interior department was surprised and
Indignant on account Of the $500 fine
and six-hour sentence passed on Bart
lett Richards and william 8. Comstock
for inclosing $4,000 acres OF govern
ment land, Judge Munger. who imposed
the sentence in federal court, last
night, said:
THE secretary of the interior has a
perfect right to be surprised and in
dignant If he wants to be. One would
naturally think he had enough to look
after with the affairs pertaining to his
Office without seeking to saddle HIM
self with additional responsibilities.
You may quote me as saying that
think the result which the government
hoped to attain has been effected. The
indictments and the prosecution were
primarily for the purpose of obliging
ranchmen to abandon their lawful
fences.
Now the inclosing Of the public do
main Is not crime in itself. 1t is
nothing more than a statutory offence.
when the district attorney was
asked If he had anything to say in re-
gard to the case. he replied that he be-
lieved Messrs. Richards and Comstock
had been acting in good faith as re-
CARDS the removal of their unlawful
fences and that they would continue to
act in good faith in the matter of re-
moving the remainder of their fences.
LAS for the four years of determined
efforts and the expenditure of thou
sands of dollars by the government
before the defendants were indicted,
that, of course, was not matter sub
mitted for my consideration. All there
was i'll the case for me to decide was
the sentence, and that decision was
not made until after I had given the
matter thorough consideration"
District Attorney Baxter says he
made no suggestion to the court, mere
ly saying that he was satisfied that
Richards and ComstoCk meant to COM
ply with the law in regard to moving
their fences.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful It is in
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature, but
few realize it's value when taken into
the human system for the same cleans
ing purpose.
Charcoal is remedy that the more
you take of it the better; it is not a
drug at all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present
In the stomach and intestines and car
ries them out Of the system
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating on
ions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves the complexion. it whitens the
teeth and further acts as natural
and eminently safe cathartic.
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; it
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another, but probably the best
charcoal and the most for the money
Is in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they
are composed of the finest powdered
Willow charcoal, and other harmless
antiseptics in tablet form or rather in
the form of large. pleasant tasting loz-
enges, the charcoal being mixed with
honey.
The daily use of these lozenges will
soon tell in much improved condi-
ton of the general health better COM
plexion, sweeter breath and purer
blood. and the beauty of it is, that no
possible harm can result from their
continued use, but on the contrary
great benefit.
A Buffalo physician in speaking of
the benefits of charcoal says: "I advise
Stuarts Charcoal Lozenges to all pa
tients suffering from gas in stomach
and bowels, and to clear the complex
ion and purify the breath, mouth and
throat; I also believe the liver is great
ly benefited by the daily use Of them;
they cost but twenty-five cents a box
at drug stores, and although in some
sense a patent preparation. vet / be-
Iieve get more and better charcoal in
Stuart's Charcoal LoZenges than in
any of the ordinary charcoal tablets"
