to be satisfied with raising about third
of all the American staple. But this lit
tie wcevil crawled across the border
from Mexico and has swept the cotton
fields like pestilence. Each year the
domain Of the weevil is spreading, and
its kind is multiplying by billions No
effective means has yet been found to
check the spread Of the pest. and the en-
tire cotton belt is alarmed. E%
The Louisiana special commission has
recommended to the legislature that a
non-cotton growing belt be created
between that state and Texas, by which
1t is expected to starve out the weevil
and stay its further progress northward.
Already the loss by this insect is prob
ably $25.0Oo,0oo. and experts Of the ma
tional and state government are doing
everything In their power to devise some
means to check this Texas terror.

STICKS TO OLD CUSTOMS.
TAa Supreme Court o1 fhs pnifed
., States IL Welded TO Ns
Tradition.

The supreme court of che United
States does business on an antiquated
plan. While 1t undoubtedly is the most
dignifed body of men in this country,
If not In the world, it has its peculiari-
ties, and they are striking ones, says
the indianapolis Sentinel One OF the
traditions of the court prevents news
paper correspondents from attending
the sessions of the court in their pro-
fessional capacity. Provision is made
for q representative of each OF the
great press associations. but the corre-
spondents have to push and crowd IN
behind the rear railing with the hun
dreds of other spectators. Usually
they have to stand up, and If they are
seen taking notes an attendant escorts
them to the door. The result is that
the 200 or more correspondents have to
depend on their memory for their re-
ports of proceedings In the supreme
courtroom.
There is another custom of the court
vhich prevents correspondents from
seeing the opinions handed down until
they have secured authority from the
Judges who seyerally deliver them
from the bench. This authority is not
always given, the Judge exercising his
own discretion about lit. Not infre-
quently the correspondent has to go
to the home of the judge to get the
written authority, and perhaps by the
time he gets back TO the capitol the Of
flee Of the clerk of the court is closed.

official guide with the names of that
city forming part of their title, five

aitches, or old-stylers, appear to have

Age. The city papers differ, the ma
jority aspiring to the aspirate-to
which the progressive Post seems in
its title to say Gee! But referring
again to the guide, it appears that 16
cities named in railway titles, which
have the disputed final syllable, those
beginning with New, Pratts and Mid

Fitch, Blooms, Rose, Flemings, Gettys,
Harris, Ham, Lords Ogden, Stras,
Philips, Wick and Waynes are plain

appear to have it here. But aggre-
eating the Pitts and other burgs and

a majority of three. Nevertheless the

PLACED DUTY BEFORE WORK.
Man in Need of Employment Refused
Job to March with the Un-
employed.

A London preacher had an interest
ing experience not long ago with hun
CRY man. The mendicant explained
that he had found it absolutely impos-
sible to get work. He had applied ev-
erywhere, always to be turned away,
and at last nothing remained for him
but to. beg from door to door for the
food that was necessary to keep life in
his body.
The clergyman's heart was filled
with pity The poor man seemed to be
honest, and after being furnished with
a good meal he was asked where mes
sage would reach him. He gave On ad-
dress and went away.
Then the preacher sat down to think
the matter over. He knew of no work
that he could find for the man, but he
decided 10 invent job.
Accordingly the next day the preach
er Gent message to the luckless man,
saying:
Come at once. I have a position
for you. We need man to clean our
school house and keep it in order"
He received an immediate reply as
follows;
"Sorry ! can't come. 1have TO march
with the unemployed to-day Would
tomorrow do?"

Maid of Orleans as Ancestor.

Joan of Arc has suffered many things
at the hands Of. the historian. There
are those who would say that she es.
capped the scatfold and lived and. died
and raised up children. A lady, the
widow of Gen. Cuny, has just died at
Cherbourg, and she is declared to be
a descendant of the actual family of
la Pncele." Her maiden name was,
certainly, Milcion dare. Nine. Cuny
never pretended that the maid hea
been married. but always said that she
was descended from Pierre dare, the
brother of the heroine. This Pierre
was an interesting parsonage, emo
bled by Charles VII, and the question
of his descendants has much occupied
genealogists 1t seems, however,
proved that the line was extinct in
1901; therefore this good lady was not
descended either from Joan or her
brother, but from some branch of the
family. Still, no doubt, the heroine
will continue to stand ancestor to a
considerable portion of the population.

A few days ago number of specimens

the facility with which they can initiate
