The Bells OF England.

The metal tongue OF the big bell
rings out many changes to- our mod
ern ears. It speaks OF disaster and
death, of rejoicing and devotion. In
England it often tells of old times
and quaint customs Mr.. Ditchfeld,
in book on Old England, gives some
of the traditions handed down through
the Naturalization Of the bells"
In some parts Of the country the
bell which tolls the old year out is
called the "Old Lads Passingbell."
In western England the bells peal
merrily on "Oak Apple Day." to cele-
brate the escape OF King Charles at
Boscobel. Another bell, rung at the
beginning Of Lent, is known as Pan
cake Bell" because, in old time
phrase, it summons people away from
their pancakes to confession and fast
ing"
A lively peal OF bells is often F1lng
at the end OF the Sunday morning ser.
vice. and is called Pudding Bell"
Perhaps is purpos IS to announce tc
the stay at homes that service is owe.
and that the pudding may come out
of the oven.
Every night at five minutes past
nine "Great Tom," the great bell OF
Christ Church College at Oxford,
booms out its ponderous note one hun.
dred and one times. This particular
number was chasen in accordance
with the number of students at the
foundation, Of the college.

By this. Leach stated himself that for
several years he had drank three cups
Of coffee for breakfast, two at noon

Some people question the statements
that coffee hurts the delicate nerves OF
the body. Personal experience with
thousands prove the general statement
true, and physicians have records OF
great numbers Of cases that add to the
testimony.

FOR ACREAGE REDUCTION
Was Matter Considered at Closing
Session of Cotton Growers-Ex-
ecutive Committee to Finish.

With the matter acreage as the
most important question remaining to
be settled, the Southern Cotton AS
sociation began the last day of its
work in New Orleans Saturday morn
ing. The question of permanent
headquarters, the election of officers
and the proposition to establish an Of
fetal organ will be settled by the ex-
secutive committee at its sessions to
be held later.
The executive committee will also
arrange to put into effect the plan
of holding the remainder of the cot
ton for Is cents. It is. directed to
select one representative Of the as
sociation from each state and terrific
ry, one banker from each state and
territory and five cotton men at large
to perfect the following plan:
The adoption Of form OF contract
by which the farmer or owner of cot
ten can deposit with his banker the
receipts or pledges to hold his cotton
for Is cents, the contract to provide
that the cotton cannot be sold for less
than Is cents, basis middling, at
southern ports. except with the. con-
sent of this committee. The owner
of the cotton has full power and au-
ho-ity to sell this cotton at Is cents
or over, the banker to retain l cent
per pound to be held in trust until
such time as all of this Gotten so
pledged has been disposed of, when
this committee will meet and arrange
disposition of the balance as the
interest may appear.
A resolution by N. V. Gavin OF
Georgia was adopted, instructing the
executive committee to publish for
distribution of 100000 copies of the
proceedings of the convention
Hon. John Temple Graves of Geor-
eia was introduced and addressed the
convention. He was given q special
VCLS OF IuauhS.
At the opening of the afternoon
session, Chairman W. D. Nesbitt pre-
sented the report Of the committee
on warehouses. It recommended the
extension and improvement Of the
present warehouse system.
Chairman Hancock reported for the
finance committee. 1t provided fcr
dues of 10 cents per bale, allowing 70
per cent to national fund, 80 per cent
to the state fund and the remainder
to the county fund. The executive
committee was requested to employ
Hon. E. D. Smith of South Carolina
as national organizer to more com
pletely organize the various states.
The association completed its labors
with its afternoon session and ad-
,ourpel without delay. Declaring the
adjournment, President Jordan con-
graduated the convention on the sue
cessful manner in which 1t had per
formed its work. The new executive

Position on the Question.
SOME INTERESTING VIEWS
Opportunity Presented While Philip.

ered-Proteetion Policy
Aired.

vigorous speech in favor OF the
Philippine tariff bill by Mr.. Dalzeu
of Pennsylvania opened the proceed
ings in the house Wednesday. 1t was
followed by several others against
the measure, most notable Of which
was a two-hour address by the veter-
an statesman, Mr.. Keifer OF Ohio, an
sex.speaker, who returns to the house
after retirement OF twenty years. Mr..
Keifer bespoke stand pat" doctrine
3 of the most pronounced type, and said
he should oppose the pending bill, be-
cause il was a concession to the dem
ocratic principles.
Opposition to the bill was made be-
cause of fear Of, rice competition by
Mr.. Pajo Of Louisiana
AS the result Of an interruption,
Champ Clark Of Missouri made this
comment regarding the Dingley tariff
law: Il think it is an Internal curse
to the whole American people"
MI. Williams, the minority leader,
interjected into Mr.. Pujo's speech
what he considered the exact demo
cratic position on the tariff.
SIT should be levied solely with
s regard to the maximum revenue pro-
duction.. If it protects in certain
places, well and good; but that should
not be its primary object
Mr.. Williams explained that his
party did not believe in free trade.
and that the declaration in its plat
form that all forms of protection are
robbery, to which attention was call
ed by Mr.. Grcsvenor, did not mean
free trade.
The recent election of Mrs. Minor
Morris from the white house Office
was made the subject of remarks by
/ Mr.. Sheppard OF Texas.
Messrs. Payne and Grcsvenor raised
the point of order that Mr.. Sheppard
was not discussing the bill under con-
sideration, but the point was not sus-
Z tained by the chair, and Mr.. Sheppard
continued, saying:
4If the president had heard the howl
of a wolf or the growl OF bear in
the adjoining room, he would have
been on the scene Immediately.
He characterized the occurrence as
an unwarrantable and unnecessary
brutality, which demanded investlga-
tion and merited censure."
aI congress" he continued, com
posed OF American fathers, husbands,
! brothers, permits this incident to go
:uprebuked, it will add passive and
3 cowardly approval of this violation OF
the most sacred principle of American
life.''
Rfr. Grosvenor replied, saying that
congress was not police court, and
Z that he did not believe sensation
should be spread abroad damaging to
: the character of the American admin.
istration.
The house adjourned until Thurs
day.
