erty, located near Uniontown, and be-
longing to S. " Woodfin, E. I. Woodfn
and Richard Woodfin of Marion, was
sold to Thomas Long of Uniontown
during the past few days. The estate
consisted of $40 acres and the pur-
chase price was $3.50 cash and the
crops grown on the property this year
which will equal $3.50, making a total
of $4,000 for the entire property.
The effect on the cotton crop of this
section after the boil weevil reaches
Alabama had something to do with the
sale of the property. Land owners re-
alize that the growth of cotton under
the present tenent plan, with the boil
weevil to contend with will be the
from sections south of Marion indicate
the arrival of the weevil already, in
small way.
Marion feels very optimistic over the
immediate crop prospects, south of Ma

have the best crops made in many
years, while the corn crop promises to
be very large. Rains have been ger,
eral and In 80 days new cotton will
be on sale.
The merchants are expecting large
trade and unusually large supplies of
merchandise are being received daily.
Indications are that all colleges will
open with increased attendance, par
ticularly so with the Female seminary.

BY MYRTLE NILES.

One of the fads of the hour, says a
yacationist just returned, is mountain
climbing, which entices the sojourner
in the summer resorts as it never has
before. Every mountain peak in the
White Mountains, it seems, has been
scaled this season, not only by adven-
turous men, but by women as well, and
the narrow trail shows the heel prints
of dainty feet side by side with the rough
hob-nailed boots of their escorts.
At one fashionable New Hampshire re-
sort the advent of a dozen burros from
Colorado last week was hailed with much
delight by those of climbing propensities.
They were brought by a real western
cowboy and the procession up Mount
Willard the nearest peak, it is said, was
one never to be forgotten. 1t was led
by a venerable visitor from Massachu-
sets. 80 years of age, but possessing
much of the vigor of youth. He made
the two-mie journey up the steep road
in 80 minutes
One of the most interesting mountain
climbers among the women is Mrs. James
A. Cruikshank of New York, who has
the distinction of having made, entirely
without assistance, the first trail ever
blazed between Mounts Field and Will
ley in the Appalachians. She and her
husband returned this summer from
1500-mile journey with Rear Admiral
Evans on his famous trip on the PACING
coast. Mr.. and Mrs. Cruikshank are
New Workers whose life is one long holl-
day out of doors Last year they traV-
eled 1000 miles from Sydney, Cape Bre-
ton. to Vancouver, without doubling on
their tracks once. This included thou
sand-mile journey by canoe through the
Hudson Bay country. Mrs. Cruikshank
last feat in blazing the trail through
nrimeval forest, from Field to Wiley
distance of three miles, is brilliant
proof of her courage and endurance ice,
Though Mr.. Cruikshank accompanied her
IT was her initiative and the credit for
the blazing of the "Cruikshank trail
is due to her alone. To see demure
little woman in smart dinner gown at
a fashionable hotel in the mountains and
believe her the woman who accomplished
this remarkable feat is almost lmpos-
sible.
