NEW ENGLAND AND SOUTHERN
COMPETITION.

When about a decade ago it be-
came apparent that the South was
making such rapid strides in the
manufacture of cotton goods that
there were reasonable grounds for
expecting that in time this section
would become the center of cotton
manufacturing in the country, the
New England cotton manufacturing
communities became much alarmed
at the outlook and even petitioned
their legislatures to repeal certain
labor laws, which in their belief
threatened to place them at a disad
vantage in competing with the South.
They poited out that the cotton
Spinners of the South would save
freight on the raw material, have
ample supplies of coal at hand, enjoy
the advantage of cheap labor, and so
forth.
While the South has made ever
more rapid strides than expected in
developing the cotton manufacturing
industry, and now consumes quite
as much raw cotton in its mis- as
do the Northern spinners, the lat
ter have not met the disaster and ruin
which they apprehended, but on the
contrary, in recent years they have
enjoyed great prosperity, having
come through the panic of two years
ago and its aftermath much better
than other industries. Last year good
dividentds were distributed to the
shareholders of the mills, and New
England is putting as much as S53,
100000 of new capital into the in
dustry in the shape of new mills be-
ing erected and additions being made
to old mills.
Of course, the South is continuing
to steadily increase its cotton man
ufacturing industry, and there is no
reason to doubt that the industry
will continue to expand, as there is
almost unlimited room for expansion.
At the same time it is gratifying to
know that the cotton manufacturing
industry is great and profitable
enough to afford ample room for
development in New England as
well as in the South. The fact of the
matter is that the worlds require
ments of cotton goods are actually
outstripping the growth of the cot
ton manufacturing industry, and
there is every indication that this

A SCIENTIFIC ~sPARKER."
Bishop W. :. QuayIe Has something
to Say on the Subject.

Spokane, Wash, July 12.-Dis-
cussing the tremendous advantages to
a preacher of being a scientific
"sparker," Bishop w E. Quayle of
Chicago, said in the course of an adj
dress at First Methodist church OF
Spokane, that any pastor who does
not know how to spark" ought to
be ashamed of himself. And" he
added, there is no use of sparkling
woman unless you can hold her
hand. l cannot explain why this is
so, but l do know that it has to be
done, for | have been there myself.
Judging from the prolonged ap-
plause and the repeated mods of ap-
proval by the listeners in the Amen
Corner following this remark, it is
taken that the Chicagoan has started
something.
Bishop Quayle was assigned to
speak upon Hall Game and His
Island" but he depressed several
times to express his views on mar
riage and divorce, the influence Of
woman and other questions. Here
are a few of his sermOnettes, gath
cred at random:
"A foe of the home is always de-
structive of good order, civilization
and decency.

have seen slums in boulevards and
in the home of millionaires.
THE solitary thing that keeps the
world decent is the home. Abolish it
and the world will go to the devil.
Marrying is the greatest thing in
the world, but from its very common
ness we do not appreciate the fact.
ANY one who slurs wOman's love
insults the race. The worlds life
never gets and stays above the level
of womanhoOd.
In America man is a sort of a
pocketbook for woman. She wants
him around at night because he is
then about as good as a poodle.

and the raising of babies is often con-
sidered small business, but domesti-

thereby affording q practically linn
itIess field for the expansion of cot
ton manufacturing
At one time the South confined
itself almost exclusively to manufac-
turing the coarser sorts of cotton
cloth, but with the steady growth
of the industry the manufacture of
the finer grades, and, in fact, all
grades, has been undertaken. That
the industry has been profitable in
this section its wonderful growth
within few years amply attests.-

AIRSHXPS AND THE POLE

AZRSHXP.S AND THE POLE.
Now that airships are more than
"a mark for shafts of wit, and practi-
zeal manufacturers are making them
Cor practical men, the ever-fascinat-
ing problem of finding the North
Pole takes on new interest. For
many years hardy adventures have
struggled through the perils of the
Arctic regions, each hoping to win in
the terrible contest. Even now the
brave Peary is making probably his
last attempt to reach the pole His
plans are well formed and his cour-
age Is sublime If the feat can he ac-
.compIished in the old-fashioned way,
Peary deserves to be the successful
zone.
1t IS only natural that the believ-
GERS in aerial navigation should turn
their attention to the North Pole
quest. 1t offers a field for adventure
not to be found in any other direc-
ton, and it is extremely probable
that when the art of building and
managing their craft is better I'M

Forest assistants and Their Work.

Washington July 12.-Forty-seves
young graduates OF nine American
Forest schools have just received ap
continents as Forest Assistants il
the United States Forest Service. But
five of these appointees have beer
assigned to the Washington Office
the other forty-two receiving appoint
ments in the six Administrative Dis
tricts in the West These men have
secured their appointments as re-
suit of passing the regular Civil Ser
vice examination, which is the only
avenue of employment as a forester
under the government.
ForestAssistants are men who have
completed their preliminary training
for the profession of forestry, as the
graduates of law or medicine have
completed theirs, and are ready to
enter upon practical work. Until they
have gained experience, however, their
positions are necessarily subordinate.
They are at the foot of the ladder and
must prove their fitness to mount
higher. The government pays them
81, 900 year at the start.
On the National Forests the Forest
Assistant often acts as technical ad-
wiser to the Supervisors in charge
who are western men experienced in
practical matters, but usually without
school training in the science of for
estry. Or they may be assigned to the
study of some particular problem
which needs to be investigated in the
interest of good forest management
AS forestry means knowing how to
get the most out of any given piece
of forest land, it calls for studies and
experiments, both scientific and prac-
teal, much like these which have to
be made in the interests of good
farm management, and the Forest
Assistant is prepared to do valuable
work along this line
There is a growing interest in the
profession of forestry now, and many
young men are asking how to get
into it, and what it promises Cliff
ford Pinchot, United States Forester,
in an address to the graduating class
in forestry at Harvard University
this year, said:
THE government and the country
need more men trained in the knowl-
edge of forestry, and it offers oppor-
tunity to make a mans life loom
large and to count for much among
the many phases of human endeavOr.
To be a good forester a man should
combine something of the naturalist
with a good deal of the business man.
To know how to use the forest he
must be able to study it. He must
have, therefore, the power of obser-
walton, a fondness for nature, and
the ability to penetrate her secrets.
lie must be resourceful, able to stand
by himself, willing to undergo the
privations of rough life, and capable
of commanding the respect Of rough
men, who quickly recognize virility
and genuineness of character, but will
not tolerate pretence or the assump-
ton of superiority. A forester should
be sound in mind and body, and
should make the fullest college prep
aration for the service. This service
means a free, vigorous life in the
open air, and a clear, straight, fine,
wholesome manly condition of life. !"

AS yet no games are in sight for
the Brownies this week. Manager
Cummins finds it rather difficult mat
ter to find team with which a series
of games can be arranged.
The Brownies now have the best
infield IN the state Juni Cobolini,
who holds down the initial sack, is as
good if not better than any amateur
baseman in the state He plays the
game like . veteran and is now lead
ing the team in hitting Toles, the
second sacker, is as fast as creased
| lightning, and it is seldom that a
batter is able to place a safe hit be-
tween first and second. He is improv-
! ing in his batting and as a base pill
ferer, there is nothing in this neck of
the wood" that can touch him. Thus
far this season he has stolen SO bases
and has only bee thrown out twice
while endeavoring to steal second.
'Billiken" Zacha, the third sacker, is
the best third baseman that Browns
vile has ever had. He is a splendid
hitter an da good base runner. Neid-
erman at short has had very little OPP
portunity to demonstrate what he can
do since joining the Brownies, but he
has shown that he is a good hitter
and also good base runner.
The pitching staff of the Brownies
is as good as any amateur staff in the
state. "Possum Bill Taft has pitched
more games this season than any that
we now have. He has won 6 games
and lost 2; Palm has won games
and lost 2; Brown has won games
and lost l.
Pitcher Merritt, who was released
by the Brownies and Joined the Cor
pus Christi aggregation, has more
than made good Since joining them
he has not lost a game and he has
allowed only one score to be made.
For the last 81 innings that he has
pitched there has not been a single
run made. In one game he struck
out p men. He has never pitched
against the Brownies yet or his rec
ord might look different
This season the Brownies have won
"a games and lost 8, their percentage
being 75O.
Sambo Bell in center field and
Happy Heinie" Deidesheimer in
right have been playing powerful
good ball During the last game with
the Modern Plumbers Happy
Heinie" made one of the most SEN
sational catches ever made on the
local diamond.
