SOUTHERN
COTTON men
TO MEET At BIRMINGHAM ON
JANUARY II.
WAREHOUSE IS DISSCUSED
The Attendance viii Be the Largest
In the History Of the Organization.
Big Preparations Made for
Entertainment.

The next meeting of the Southern
Cotton association will be- held at
birmingham, Ala. January H. It IS
anticipated that the gathering this
year will De larger than any ever
held before. A number of important
matters are to come up for discus
sion, the most important OF which is
tho warehouse proposition.
ln view of the splendid argument
made by the saving in passenger rates
io Birmingham as the center of the
cotton belt and it's excellent railroad
facilities, the proposition TO make this
city the warehouse center Of the ass
sociatlou will probably meet with ia.
yor
Among the other important qucs.
tious to come before the association
is that of the proposed erection of
warrant warehouses near the center
OF the cotton belt in order that cotton
may be shipped to that point and
held for higher prices BY this move
the association could so arrange that
all of the cotton would not have TO
be dumped ON the market i'm the fall
Of the year, but a given number Of
bales could be- sold each month during
the year In this way the product
would be- taken out of the hands of
the speculative interests and largely
by the supply and the demand.
The several state association meet.
iugs in the cotton belt, which are
billed for next Wednesday, will prob.
ably adopt many resolutions to be
recommended to the Southern assocla
ton. There seems to be a popular
demand to regulate the government
ginners' report in order that they ap
pear once every month or two in
stead of every ten or fifteen days as
is now the custom. An effort will
also be made to abolish entirely the
annual report of the agricultural de
partmeut estimating the total crop
which is usually issued in December

! PUT RELIGIOUS DUTY SECOND.
Stern Laws Of Business Come First,
Says Austrian Court.

An interesting case at law, which
centered on the observance of an old
Jewish custom, was decided In Vienna
recently. A merchant, says the Ameri-
can lsraelite, discharged clerk on &C.
count of neglect of duty. Among the
charges against him was that he came
to the store late in the morning be-
cause he attended service at the syna-
gosue In order to say Kaddish-the
prayer for the dead-for his father.
The clerk argued that 1t was his privi-
lege and his duty to say the prayer for
his departed father, while the mer-
chant, who was also religious man,
maintained that "if Moses had known
that man had to pay 5000 gulden a
year rent he would have made differ
emit laws" The judge would not allow
such an argument, but decided in IA
vor Of the merchant, because the
daily attendance at the synagogue
could not be considered the right Of
the clerk without the consent OF the
employer"

In the days before the dawn of his
fame 1t was the practice of certain
well known author to wander up and
down the land seeking what he might
devour in the way of suggestion and
local color. In this way he had drift
ed down into Arkansas, "roughing ii"
and not, as he expresses 1t, presenting
an appearance calculated to inspire a
hotel proprietor with unlimited conf
dence.
The only hotel in the town, frame
structure, seemed to have been built
upon the theory that there was plenty
of room straight up, but that ground
had to be bought and the wanderer
was shown to room on the third
floor, reached through many narrow
and winding passages. From the one
window it was straight drop to the
ground.
Say, how would I get out of this
place in case of fire." he asked the
landlord, who had brought up his
grip.
The other eyed him coldly.
