TR HOUGH Copenhagen. the capital of k Denmark, Is a very old city, 1t has - been SO completely remodeled in the last half century as to have become beautiful and interesting capital. It was first called Hafnla, or Merchant Hnrbo-. because traders and fishermen gathered there, attracted by the rich herring hsh- cries of the sound.
 This town was rrst known Tn the eleventh centu y as a simple trading town It was not until the reign of Christian the ". that It's establishment wHs begun This most popular of Danish kings planned all the improvements carried on two cen turies after his rule. He began the work by raising an embankment around the castle and strengthening the fortibca- tions. It was nearly century later when the new quarter WIS incorporated with the town.
 But this century marks an era Of great civic Improvement. The old ramparts were Ieveled and new Notifications erected Many handsome bOuevards have been laid out between the ramparts and the lakes, and the suburbs beyond the lakes have been given to the city. Copenhagen mny be divided into the old city within the ramparts and the new city with hand home squares and broad boulevards. The streets in the old town were once narrow and winding, but they have been straight ened and widened, while the narrow chan nel that divided the old town into two small parts has been spanned by several

 spent nearly $2OO for seed, and as there
 was only enough seed available to them
 to plant about 60 acres of Egyptian cotton, they insisted on planting their
 short staple seed and also pledged 55 acres of Egyptian cotton. Before the planting season was over, however, the faint hearted ones fell away to such
 an extent that only 19 acres of Egyp- tian cotton were planted and 1O5 acres
 of short staple, the planting being done

 that old Texas cotton growers say is superior to anything the Lone Star state has ever produced. At this june . ture, the real troubles of the cotton growers began. The promised gin was not forthcoming and it looked as if the beautiful cotton crop was after all to be lost With characteristic western energy. however, the two farmers or ganized a stock company and after buying all the stock they could afford themselves, and disposing of the re mairing shares, they again called upon me to assist them.

 fitting introduction to this beautiful city Is the kings new square, situated near the center of the old town. Th.s square Is exceedingly large and Irregular in shape. Thirteen streets go ou; from it as spokes in a wheel. the handsomest of these are Ostergade, GOtcsgGde Brelgade and Holmen's Canal. In the middle Of this large square is a handsome stHtue of Christian the ". done by great Danish sculptor. On the east side run ming up from the harbor and of the streets on either side Is CharlOtteuburs. This palace was once occupied by the queen dowager, Charlotte Amalie. but Is now used for the spring exhibition. On the other side of the square is the Royal Theater, an imposing building in the Renaissance style. The main entrance is surmounted by q colossal bronze group of Apollo and the Muses and Pegasus nt the spring of Castalla. In the vestibule are marble statues of Danish poets.

 Necessary by the Late Convention.

The regular meeting of the Taft Cameron club at the city hall last night was one of more than usual importance and was attended by practically all the members, beside by most of the candidates on the county ticket among whom were George M. Hahn, candidate for the legislative council; Roy $. Goodricb, for the assembly; II. B. Wilkinson, for district attorney; r.. A. Sparkling. for treasurer; George w. Cowgirl, for recorder; J. c. Phillips, for probate judge; l. T. Hosey, for supervisor; Col. Johnstone. for justice of the peace, and Joe COntreras and W. J. Ferris, for constables.
 The early part of the meeting was given over to business matters. Mir Hosey, the treasurer. presented his resignation, saying that on account of his nomination he would be out of the city the greater part of the time during the campaign. He said that he had collected SLY and that it was all in the treasury Mir. Ho- SeN IeSlSHdIl'n WIS dtttplCu anu c. M. Sturges was appointed to sue ceed him.
 For the same reason urged by MT Hosey, Roy s. Goodrich, the sccre- tary. offered his resignation. It was accepted and E. r.. Marks was elect ed Co the vacancy. After the busi- ness part of the meeting had been disposed of there were addresses by most of the candidates and others

THE COTTON
 EXPERIMENT
Prof. CIOthier Speaks of the Success at Arlington
Estimates of a Net Yield of From SIS to $20 an Acre.

R. w Clothier professor of agri- culture at the University of Arizona at Tucson was in the city yesterday and in an interview with a Republican re porter related the following interest ing story of the efforts of the united corps of farmers of Buckeye and Ar hngton in their experiments in raising cotton, the results and the present project of these men in furthcring and encouraging cotton growing in this vii cinity. In his interview Prof. Clothier breifly relates an interesting story of the launching of the Egyptian cotton Industry in the United states and the assured possibilities of it's success. Prof Clothier said:
 'ln October of last year. the farmers of Buckeye and Arlington organized d Cotton Growers association which se- cured pledges from farmers to grow about 25O acres of cotton this year. Short staple cotton was decided upon as most of the men interested were familiar with this variety of cotton. Certain parties promised that when the cotton was ready for the market a gin would be put up.
 'The plan, as syStematiZcd by the farmers was set before me and my views on the project asked Tn a lee ture delivered to the association. I ad- vIred the fa: mers to experiment a little before plunging into cotton growing commercially. I pointed out the dan ger of introducing boil weevu by i'm porting seed and was anxious to as sist in procuring seed free from the wecvil. The farmers, however, took matters in their own hands and or dered seed from a locality in west Texas said to be free from Boil weeviL ], however, fumigated all seed shipped in to make assurance that the weevu would not be introduced
 Meanwhile. the results of the cxperi- ments by the Bureau of Plant Industry at Yuma were published and they were so favorable to the long staple Egyp- tian variety of cotton. that Messrs. Kcarney, SWingle and Mason. of that bureau felt justified in visiting Buck eye and Arlington country to urge the
