speaking, hopeless. He has demon

hospitals for infectious diseases are

MAN OF DELICATE NERVES.
Rosenthai, the Pianist, Made Much
Trouble in Hotel.

Rosenthal, the pianist, is one OF
those entitled to have his crankiness
termed "the eccentricities OF genius"
says the San Francisco Chronicle.
When he inspected his rooms at the
Majestic upon his arrival very late the
other night, he went softly to the ad-
joining doors, and placing his ears
close to the cracks, exclaimed in
broken English, "Zgodd, no sounds
pass thees." After nodding his ap-
proval of the grand piano and the fur
niture he frowned at the tan-colored
window shades. Must be green" He
was assured that change would be
made especially for him the next day.
At FIVE o'clock in the morning Ros-
enthal, clad only in his pajamas, came
scurrying excitedly down stairs and
into the office, where the drowsy
night clerk was nodding at the desk.
"Ze street cars! Noise! Must
stopped, Nervous me! l cannot
sleep"
The clerk hurriedly sent for Mana
ger Gustav Mann, and Mann spent
two hours telling Rosenthal funny
stories In German trying to divert his
mind while the clerk was upstairs
squaring the Management for waking
a guest on the Cough street side and
ordering him to move at once to the
Suffer street side as a gas pipe had
burst under the floor and had to be re

Be Humble and Thankful.

Just because the Farmers Union
is now very strong and powerful, it's
members must not act the fool by
trying 10 ruin some necessary occu-
patton just simply because some
member has e grudge against some
one engaged in that business.
Instead of being naughty and tyr
annical over this your fourth round
in winning out on your own prices
for cotton, you should be humble
and thankful to the God of equity
for your deliversrce> out of the will
derness of brambles and thorns that
you have been wandering and strug-
Cling through for over forty years.
Remember the mistake that Moses
made in his manner of tapping the
rock for water for his people just
when he was in sight of the Pro missed
Land and the penalty he paid for
this mistake in not being allowed
the pleasure and privilege of enter
ing this land Of peace and plenty he
had wandered 80 long to possess.
Farmers, be humble and conscious
that you and your organizations may
live to see our lovely southland re-
stored to its original greatness and
peace and plenty, that all its people
may enjoy the fruits of the good
work of our Farmers Union.

When Mr.. Finley and Col. An

plans for the completion of the Blue

confirms what these gentlemen said
when they were here:
can official letter, received bv the
Manufacturers Record, confirms the
report that the Southern Railway
Company has made survey from
Bushnell, N. c., to Franklin, N. C.
Such a line would be 364 miles long.
The scheme eontemplates revision
OF the present line between Bushnell
and Almond, N. O., and thence by
an entirely new line, for the most
part on the east side of the Little
Tennessee river to Franklin. This
line will have seven short tunnels,
the longest being $50 feet, but other
wise it will be of comparatively easy
construction. The maximum grade
against loads will be six-tenths of l
per cent, and the maximum curve
10 degrees. 1t is not known when

We all can understand why an
overproduction of perishable crops
invariably terminates in loss to pro.
ducers But in the case of cotton,
an imperishable article and one of
the best collaterals and current
article of trade the world over,
should not suffer depreciation in
value if producers have warehouse
facilities for storing their cotton.
Instead of reasonably large crops
OF cotton bringing less money to
producers, as has been the case here
tofore, it is one of the prime objects
of the Farmers Union in the South
to now handle the selling end of
their crops by protecting themselves
with strong system of warehouses
that will insure cotton growers
against the unreasonable practice of
getting less money for good crops
than we have been getting for poor
crops. .
