Rising Sun closed its season on
Saturday with games in the morn
ing and afternoon, Avondale being
the opposing team. The Avondale
boys had their eyes on the ball and
hammered both the home team
twirlers, but Notwithstanding their
heavy batting lost the afternoon
game.
Out of total of twenty eight
games played during the season
Rising Sun won twenty-one. Not
a bad record when the difficulty OF
getting the team together for almost
every game is considered.

HOG MONEY!.

Origin of the Curious Old Brass
Coins of Bermuda.
Hog money" is the name by which
the brass money which began to be
struck in Bermuda in 1850 came to be
known. On one face of it was a hog,
on the other a ship of that period.
These old coins are very rare and high
ly priced by collectors.
The history Of this device is curious
and interesting. A Spanish vessel,
commanded by Juan Bermudez, on its
way to Cuba with a cargo Of hogs, was
wrecked there. This was in 1916. Lat
err in the same century, when the Eng
lish discovered this land, they found a
country inhabited by hogs.
1t Is also interesting to note that the
English discovered it in the same way
as the Spaniards. An English ship
was wrecked there. Is it any wonder
that the treacherous coast got from
Spanish and English alike the name of
DEVILS Land? Yet it is one OF the
most beautiful coasts In the world, and
it has been claimed that in brilliancy
Mediterranean effects are not at. all
equal to those of Bermuda.
Bermuda is said to be the island of
Shakespeare's Tempest" The strange
noises which mariners heard coming
from this island, and which they did
not then know were produced by hogs,
caused them to say that it was haunt
ed and to report weird things Of it.

PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS.
Money Wisely Expended Is Safely
and Probably Expended.

Money Wisely Expended Is Safely
and Probably Expended.
Beautified utility is never too costly
Over and over again the cost benefits
Of public improvements have been
proved, defined, established. 1t is true
of public betterments of sanitary
character; it is true Of public better
ments that look to commercial ad-
vancement; it is true of public better
ments that have primarily an art val
ue. The practical and the ornamental
betterment are alike In this-that mon
ey wisely expended for good purposes
is safely and profltably invested.
The limitations Of expenditures for
civic betterment are of course very OBJ
vious. The work undertaken must be
good in itself and serve some good
purpose. Money expended for worth
less filtration plant, for example, is
money worse than wasted. Money
spent for bad art is not always consid-
cred as so completely lost as money
that might be wasted for worthless
sanitary apparatus. The statue causes
no i'll health and may be avoided by

At the coronation Of Charles l., the
kingdoms Of England and Scotland
having been united during the reign of
his father, considerable friction took
place with regard to the order Of pre-
cedence of the English and Scottish
noblemen. An arrangement satisfac-
tory to all parties was finally conclud-
ed, in virtue of which English peers
while in England took precedence of
Scottish peers of the same rank, while
in Scotland this order was reversed,
and the Scottish peers went first.

New York Cotton Market.

NEW YORK, Aug. 25.=The cotton market
was steady and moderately active on COM
pool market less favorable crop reports by the
chronicle. complaints Of deterioration IN Texas
and the Price monthly condition report shew-
Ing deterioration OF 3,4 points The small
shorts somewhat nervous and this factor
probably made up for some Of the steadiness.
Crop reports favorable. except from few
sections. The visible statement for the week
not bullish expected. The weekly
statistics are rather bearish. but the Chronicle
weather summary is less favorable with some
damage by weeFiis reported in Texas The
Journal of Commerce reports deterioration in
the Carolinas. This is probably the reason for
the advance in Liverpool
Liverpool was strong, being evidently mRnfpu-
lated from this side. The trouble with the
short interest Is that they have covered freely
and waiting for advance to put ont
their lines again = There IS no doubt about an
effort being made TO reduce prices and LOT
