DELEGATES ARRIVING
 FOR COTTON CONVENTION

Memphis, Tenn. Nov. s.---The first session of the three days cotton con- ventlon will be opened here tomorrow with a delegation present from every cotton growing state in the south.
 President Harvle Jordan of the Southern Cotton Association was one of the first arrivals today and he said that large attendance was assured. The paramount subject of the gather ing will be to devise ways and means to advance the price of cotton. The quotations for the staple are lower at the present time than they have been at this season for the past three years Many leading cotton men claim that the condition Is not due to over pro- duetion but to manipulation and they will advise with the growers to hold for better prices
 The conference will attempt to de- wise some means to make advances to farmers in order that they may be en- abled to hold their crop for better prices when values are depressed through manipulation

Washington. Nov. 9.--Senator Car mack, who was killed on a street In Nashville today. is we'll remembered in Wash ington where he served In both houses of Congress. During his Senatorial career. from 1901 to 1907. he made a number of brilliant speeches. Although inclined to be sarcastic in some of his utterances he had many friends in Congress, among Democrats and Republicans. who admired his fear iessness and his intellectual attain ments. %
 Perhaps the most notable speech dur ing his four years in the lower House was his brilliant effort in his own de- fense when Josiah Patterson. father of the present Governor of Tennessee. contested Carmack's seat During his Congressional career, he constantly att tackled tho Republican administration in connection, among others, with the Indianola, Brownsville and Panama revolution incidents. executive en- croachment, etc, and his speeches on the subject of the Philippine tariff and in answer to Senator Foraker on the negro shooting up" incident at BrownsvIl;e are among those particu- larly recalled by the Tennessean's ad- mirerers In the Senate he was q mi nority member of the Committee on Philippines.

Chattanooga, Tenn. Nov. s-A special dispatch to The Times from Columbia, the boyhood home of ex- Senator carmack. says that the people of that city were shocked beyond measure at the news of the Killing of Mir. Carmack in Nashville.
 Business has been suspended and will not be resumed uhtiT after the funeral. There Is bitter denunciation of the coopers. both of whom are well known there, Columbia being the boy hood home of Duncan Cooper. Many threats were made but on the whole the people received the news more in grief than in anger. The dispatch said.
 Tt seems the general sentiment here that the Milling was instigated by the political forces which were dominant in Tennessee and there are many who are tonight expressing the opinion that it will promote ths passage of tenn perance legislation.

like to have reached club presidents

lack of information as to who they
were. We hope, however, that each

CAUSES OF POOR LIGHT.

The study of illumination has not
| only become an exact science in these
days of perfection in artificial light
ing, but every householder is eagerly
reading anything that will give him
greater insight into this most diff
cult study.
Many poorly lighted room can be
easily remedied by changing the light
fixtures or repapering. 1t was for-
merly the custom to blame the oil, or
the gas, or the electricity if there
were dark shadows in the room or if
the light failed to dispel the evening
darkness. Now it has been proven
that these same rooms, be it at the
home or the office or the store, can
be made almost as light as day with
even less candle power than before.
all with little study and planning.
"A wall paper which will absorb
light is the greatest enemy to arti-
ficial light in the home An illum-
inant is powerless to light a room if
the color of the walls absorb most of
the rays. The Illuminating engineers
of the General Electric Company
claim that a white wall will reflect SO
per cent of light, whereas a red wall
paper will reflect only 5 per cent. A
light buff or yellow will reflect As
per cent; dark brown about 1914
per cent. A light apple-green wall

on nerves and eyes.
The palmer the wall paper the bet

south and west.

Ible all to realize to the greatest de-

ression that electric light is too ex-

THE GROWTH OF
THE ELECTRIC RAILWAYS


The electric railways of the United
States carried last year $3.50, 900, 900
fare passengers. This wonderful in
crease is due to the growth of the
street railway and interurban rail-
way service, better transportation ia
cilities, and the increase of suburban
residents.
The number of persons to be trans
ported increased at the rate of 1901
900 annually. The number of pas
senger cars operated has increased at
the rate of 40 per cent for the past
five years. With the population of
the United States estimated at about
100000, the figures given above
would seem to show that every man,
woman and child in this country has
ridden IS times on the electric rail-
ways within the past year.
This gives some idea of the extent
of the electric traction in this coun-
try. The electrification of steam
railroads has already been success
fully accomplished, and it is predicted
that within a comparatively few years
all the principle railroads of this
great country will be electrified.
