At the Bijou.

Bijou patrons were glad to see Little
Chip and Mary Marble come back to that
popular playhouse last night, for the
welcome accorded the two stars was ex-
tremely cordial. Chip scored a personal
triumph and kept everybody laughing. 1t
Is safe to say that no more versatile
comedian has ever played at the Bijou
and none has had such happy faculty
of getting fun out of every role he at
tempts as this diminutve comedian.
In "Goriana" the material is not of
the best but Little Chip iniects such life
and vigor into his performance. intro
duoes so many drolleries and achieves so
many absurdties that the piece is saved
"Gloriaana" is, or was, typical Eng
fish comedy, Without a comedian pos
sessed of Little Chips abilities 1t would
fall fiat. but with his presence and the
spontaneous fun which he makes, the
play is rendered diverting. The only dull
spots occur when Chip is off the stage
The plot of the play deals with some
complications resulting from an exchange
of personalities between an English gen.
tleman and his butler. Chip takes the
part of the butler, who assumes aristo-
craic ways with a success that can read
ily be appreciated by those who have
even seen him on the stage. Miss Marble
has a rather profitless role in that of a.
young widow who complexities matters
by being In love with Leopold Fitz Joce-
lyn, the Englishman. Robert Harty is
good In this part while David Andrada.

~, attractive musical numbers have
been feerpeIated and the regret is that
they are not more numerous. These num-
bers are presented by Little Chip, Robert
Harty, Miss Marble, Miss Seabrooke and
an exceptionally handsome chorus. The
chorus made hit last night. There was
an evident desire to have the girls on the
stage more frequently than they ap-
peared. eaa
Little Chip was easily the life of the
performance, although all the principals
acquitted themselves we'll. He kept every
body laughing with his antics and en-
livened the comedy with his exuberance

The Mayor and Chief of Police Wier
are going to force down the lid little
tighter In Birmingham. The former made
a statement to that effect yesterday, and
the latter said that he had no intention
of allowing any gambling houses to re-
open.
There had been rumors that the lid
was to be raised this week. but the sport
ing fraternity hopes were dashed by the
attitude of the citys executive head.
In speaking of the matter yesterday
the Mayor said:

THE ALL-COTTON CONFERENCE

Great good to all cotton interests
may be expected from the conference
to be held in Washington May 1st, in
which every branch of the cotton in.
dustry, from the planting Of tho seed
to the conversion OF the staple into
its most highly finished products, is
TO be represented.
Representatives Of the cotton grow.
era and Of the ginners will be brought
into close communication with those
OF the cotton manufacturers of this
country and Of Europe and with rep
Yesentatives Of tho Cotton exchanges
ofNew Orleans, New York and Liver.
pool.
In such q conference much may
bo done to reduce the limit Of risk
aud uncertainty both in the growing
aud the manufacture Of the South 8
great staple. The problem OF iirst
Importance to the grower is to come
as near as possible to making just so
much cotton aB the spinners will take
nt zemuuerative prices. For the man.
ufaoturers the first thing is to get all
the raw material that they can work
up and sell at good profit.
OF course, the millennium will
never o0nse in which the man who
grows the cotton will not want the
best possible price for it. or when the
man who works it up will not want to
buy it as cheaply as he onn. But free
. exchange Of view and experiences will
help each to better understanding OF
what he can DO.
With respect to the balipg, ware
:: housing and transportation Of the
crop, the men who gin and ship 1t
may learn much that will be worth
while. from those who receive and
open the bales.
Since the cotton grower first assert
ed himself, about year ago, in a
well-managed business organization,
the entire commercial and mauufao.
turing world Of cotton has realized
that he is q man to be reckcAed With.
Iu conference such as is planned for
May there are possibilities of learning
much as to the beat ways Of using his
power. Tho Fundamental fact in the
relation between grower and manu-
faoturer is that each is: necessary to
the other; aud both want TO cut out
the speculator. os'<$;=;: Z ;=: S'%@., &. s..

The Brazilian Government having
offered honorarium of $4,000 to
any one who will produce q cure for
consumption, there seems to be DO
reason why some struggling genius in
this country should not soon be rolling
in afflueacc. Hardly a day passes
that We do not hear of some iufallible
cure for consumption; thus it would
seem to be merely matter of who can
make the speediest trip down there to
file his claim.

Conference That AiYtc.s Cotton.

Probably the most important cotton
conference ever held will take place in
Washington about the first Of next
month. The conference will be be-
tween the spinuers, representing prac-
tically every mill 10 the world, and
the officers Of the Southern Cotton
Association. Mr.. T.. d. Smith, pres.
ident of the South Carolina branch
Of the association and member Of the
executive cr.umittcc, was in the city
Saturday. Ia regard to the meeting
Mr.. Smith said that he believed that
the conference would mean more to
the farmers Of the South than could
be imagined.
The farmers are now in position
TO dictate to the spinner" said Mr.
Smith. "He is not going to hold up
the mill man or the consumer but he
10 going to demand o fair price for
his cotton. [ am satisfied that the
mill men who attend this conference
will see exactly the position Of The
cotton planter aud will readily agree
to fix price or deal with the cotton
planter in q way that will take cotton
entirely out Of tho speculative mar.
ket. am going to advocate doing
away with the middle men and COM
mission men altogether and selling
direct to the mills through represen-
tatives of the cotton association. It
is much better to deal direct, and
when one stops to think how unbusi.
nesslike the methods of the Southern
farmer have been since cotton was
first planted it is q wonder that no
move like this was made beforo.''
10 speaking Of the general outlook
for the farmer, Mr.. Smith said that
the only discouraging feature Of the
year was the fact that too much hay
and other stock foods we're now ship
ped from the West instead of being
raised at home. The members of the
association are doing all they can to
urge tho farmers to diversity their
crops, and h1r. Smith said that tho
article in The State by Mr. McIver
Williamson on corn planting had boon
widely circulated. Mr.. Williamson
has aided the association by deliver.
ing number Of addresses to the
farmers in his section of the country
showing them how to diversity their
crops and illustrating his system OF
corn planting.
Altogether Mr.. Smith thinks that
the coming season is the brightest in
the history of the farmer and that If
the rules Of the association sre ad
hered TO the prices wanted will be OBJ
tained. d.--The State
