Courage.

Let there be one who knows that when
err
The fault lies not within my dauntless
heart;
Let there be one who always will prefer,
When Others doubt, to stand from them
apart,
Believing in my worth, and will scorn
The scourge's smart.
To know that in the dark days and the
fair,
When others give me praise or turn to
rail,
There stin is one whose faith I hold,
somewhere,
And I will have the heart To bravely hail
As kin those valient ones who mock the
fates
That bid them fail.

The opening in Springfield, on Wed

mercal history of the city of Springfield

an unusually fine structure and fitted with
great completeness and beauty, but 1t is
unique in the fact that a business on

to dry goods. 1t is not a department

this respect the building and the business
mark a decided change and an advance
step in the retail life of the country, for
the department store idea has come
to take seemingly complete possession of

The First Bale.

The first bale of new cotton to
reach New York this year was sold
at auction yesterday for "a cents a
pound, a sentimental price, some SOS
more than its value for manufacture
ing.
The FIRST bale always brings with
it a festive spirit to the cotton mar
ket in New Orleans and New York.
1t is an arrival of interest to the
country also, for cotton is the fore
most factor in our exchanges with
Europe.
Our exports of cotton, raw and
manufactured, were last year $43I,-
100000. Iron and steel came next
with $I34,ooo.ooo, then hog products
with Sos, 100000.
Our exports, excepting cotton. for
one year up to June 80, 1905, were
81 100000, 600; our total imports were
$I,II7, ooo, 900. Cotton turned the
scale TO a balance of $4,000, 900. In
effect this sum was interest due upon
several billions of American securi-
ties held abroad. About two years
out of three cotton alone pays our
International balance.

GOVERNORS PRIZE TO
BEST RIFLE SHOT
Trophy Cup to Next Best Marksman
at the Gulfport Encampment of
State National Guard,

There will be lively competition
for the gold medal offered by Gov.
Vardaman and the trophy cup of
fered by Maj.-Gen. S. r. Keesler for
the rifle shooting tournament at APP
preaching annual encampment in
Gulfport. The Governors prize goes
to the best rifle shot, and Maj-Ge
keesler's trophy to the second best
shot, and both officers and enlisted
men will be allowed to participate.
Advices from Adj.-Gen Fridge are
to the effect that good Roadway. is
being made with the work of getting
the camp in shape at Bayou Bernard,
and all will be in readiness by Sun
day night, although the troops will
not arrive until next Tuesday. The
Gulf & Ship Island road has arranged
schedule for a suburban train service
to and from the encampment grounds.
The encampment site is an ideal 1oca-
ton, and will be supplied with splen-
did arteslan water, we'll flowing 400
gallons per minute being located on
the grounds.
Gov. Vardaman expects to spend
the entire ten-day period of the out
ing In camp with the soldiers, and the
military staff will also be on hand,
resplendant with full dress uniforms.
Thus far no arrangements have
been made for military balls, or any
other social functions, and the indi-
cations are that, owing to the Gov
ernor's declaration that privates must
be admitted to all balls, there won't
be any balls. At least they will not
be arranged by the officers, and if
such functions take place they will
doubtless be under private auspices
at the Great Southern Hotel or the
Snip Island Pavilion.

STUDENT OF CRIME
TURNS CRIMINAL
Doctor, in Jail, Declares the Instinct
Was Developed by Him in
His Studies.

Denver, Colo, July I5.-William
James Patterson, expert II crimlnol-
ogy and one year ago a respected and
prosperous physician, a university
graduate and a graduate in medicine
from Washington and Rus Medical
Schools, is a physical and mental
wreck III the city jail, the victim OF
his too deep study into the ways and
works of criminals.
Only one excuse does the once
highly respected man make. This IS
that he would not have fallen had he
Sot had the criminal instinct, which
was undeveloped until his delving
into criminology for nine years
brought it to the surface.
I'm natural criminal. | could
not be otherwise If | chose he said
when arrested for issuing a fraudu-
lent check for $50. He scouts the
idea of environment creating crimi-
nails. I'm living example OF man
with criminal instincts highly devel-
oped. | could not be straight if |
wanted to. | would defraud people
money and had no possible reason
for taking it, other than to fill this
natural craving. Nearly all the men
convicted of crimes are criminals by
nature. If man Is a criminal it will
come out in any environment, and if
he is straight his environment is not
going to make any difference
DR.. Patterson was arrested in April
last for forgery committed in Kan
sas. At that time he was living with
his wife and two children in refined
circumstances. Wealthy parents in
Salina, Kan, rescued him from pris-
on, but the quick repetition of the
crime seems to confirm his statement
that he can not live straight.

The great expositions of the world
have usually been held in or near
metropolitan cities. The knowledge
of this fact has caused some to ques-

furnish adequate hotel accommoda-

next year will visit the jamestown

however, on this score.
The Jamestown Exposition is pecul-
iarly fortunate in its situation. Al

$26.73 PROFIT PEP ACRE.
kinssbury County Farmer Gets Coed
Price for Corn.

DeSmet, S. D.. Sept. Sd. A. Gil
bert, one Of the enterprising farmers of
this (kingsbury) county, has just con-
Guided some interesting experiments,
having for their purpose the ascertain
ing Of what his profit Wou be per
acre from feeding corn TO hogs.
A few days & he sold the last hog
that ate the last of the corn raised on
twelve acres of ground last year. Gill
bert had a desire TO know just how
much that twelve-acre tract devoted
to corn would bring him when the
product was SOLE in the form of pork.
The corn averaged sixty bushels to
the acre and fattened hogs which odd
for exactly $320.S0. The corn was the
only feed the hogs had except green
pasture during the season, which, or
course, cost Gilbert practically nothing.
Thus by feeding his corn to hogs
Gilbert made a profit Of $26.73 per acre
from his corn crop on the twelve acres
IF ground, which is remarkable when
1t is considered that the profits per
acre would purchase outright excellent
farm land in man parts of the state.

They will spend a week on the march,
